Chapter 650: Inspecting Lin'an
(); "Oh?" Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he asked again: "Then Jin'er told his father, did the eldest brother say it, or did the third brother say it?" ”
Lu Jin'er tilted her little head and thought about it, and said coquettishly: "The eldest brother and the third brother have said it." ”
"Oh, that's right." Lu Chen said a word, he knew it in his heart, he held Lu Jin'er in his arms, sat down behind the Wang case, and began to flip through the recitals on the table, and asked casually: "Then Jin'er told his father, why didn't your eldest brother, second sister, and third brother come over?" ”
Lu Jin'er is Lu Chen's youngest daughter now, and she is also the little princess of the Wind Country, she is very pestering Lu Chen, and she has been refusing to come down in Lu Chen's arms, and after hearing the question, she said: "The second sister is learning the piano from Ye Qinshi, and the eldest brother and the third brother are afraid of their father, so they dare not come over." ”
The Ye Qin Master in Lu Jin'er's mouth is naturally Ye Xiaodie, the palace pianist, and now hearing her mention it, Lu Chen can't help but think of the beautiful face under the white veil.
and the first time I met, the moving eyes that were slightly panicked and dodgy.
Since being invited to become a palace luthier, Lu Chen has never restricted Ye Xiaodie's freedom, and the latter has always been free to enter and leave the palace at will, but he has not yet married. However, her relationship with Queen Xue Ling has always been good.
I don't know, she's okay now. Lu Chen said secretly in his heart, then retracted his thoughts and shouted outside the study: "Liang Xiao." ”
Liang Xiao, who was waiting outside the door, immediately entered the study, bowed and saluted, "King." ”
"The officials are still waiting outside the palace, right?" Lu Chen asked casually.
"Yes, the king." Liang smiled back.
"En......" Lu Chen nodded and said, "You go and pass on the edict of this king, and let them perform their duties." ”
"No." Liang smiled and was just about to turn around and leave, but at this time, Lu Jin'er in his arms said: "Father, father, I'll go, I'll go." ”
"Oh? What is Jin'er going to do? Lu Chen asked funny.
"Jin'er is going to pass the word for her father." Lu Jin'er said a word, and also jumped out of Lu Chen's arms stupidly.
For the little princess of this wind country, Lu Chen doesn't mention how much he loves it, that is the real pearl of the palm, after hearing this, he also smiled heartily, touched Lu Jin'er's little head dotingly, and said, "Then let Liang Xiao accompany Jin'er together, okay?" ”
"Uh-huh......" Lu Jin'er nodded again and again.
At the east gate of Fengzhou.
Liang Xiao was dressed in black brocade and came here with Lu Jin'er's little hand.
As for Lu Jin'er, it can be seen from her dress that it must have been personally groomed by her mother-in-law, Princess Shaoyang.
At this time, the hundred officials were still here to welcome the king back to the capital, and people gathered together, and after waiting for so long, they couldn't help but start talking in a whisper.
Hubu Shangshu Wang Song was standing behind Xue Huairen, probably because he had been standing for too long, he couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead slightly, and whispered: "Lord Xue, why hasn't this king appeared yet." ”
What he asked was complete nonsense, asking Xue Huairen, how could Xue Huairen know! However, the royal court received a summons, saying that the king had returned to the capital today, and now that the king did not appear, how could these civil and military officials dare to leave easily, and they could only wait here.
At this time, a chant suddenly came from the rear: "The fourth princess has arrived"
Hearing the words, the hundred officials involuntarily looked sideways, and they also lowered their bodies slightly.
Lu Jin'er came here accompanied by Liang Xiao, she looked at the hundred officials, and said in a childish voice: "Father said, let the hundred officials perform their duties, and there is no need to wait here." ”
Yes? Hearing this, people looked at each other, Xue Huairen was the first to react, he smiled slightly, and arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask the fourth princess, where is the king now?" ”
Xue Huairen is the right minister of the Wind Country, Lu Jin'er grew up in the palace, so she is naturally very familiar with it, after hearing this, she looked at Xue Huairen and said coquettishly: "It's the Prime Minister, my father is now in the study." ”
"Ah, thank you four princesses for telling me." Xue Huairen said again.
Subsequently, the hundred officials dispersed, and then, not long after, several important ministers of the dynasty led by Xue Huairen also began to go to the palace study to ask to see Lu Chen.
At this time, Lu Jin'er and Liang Xiao also came back, and after hearing Liang Xiao's report, Lu Chen still reviewed the music on the table, and said without raising his head: "Let them come in." ”
After Xue Huairen and a few people came in, Lu Chen finally put down the brush in his hand, and then said gently to Lu Jin'er: "Jin'er, go to your sister Yun or go to your aunt, okay?" Father has important matters to discuss with the ministers. ”
Lu Jin'er nodded obediently.
Lu Chen smiled first, then gave Liang Xiao a look, and motioned for him to send Lu Jin'er over.
The latter understood, and lowered his body slightly to show understanding.
After the two left, Lu Chen looked at Xue Huairen, but his gaze did not stay on Xue Huairen's face, but on his cuffs.
In the cuffs of this official uniform, I don't know how many official documents there are!
Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said helplessly: "Lord Xue, let's get down to business." ”
Xue Huairen nodded, but it was also simple, he unhurriedly took out a roll of bamboo slips from his cuffs, bowed slightly and put it on Lu Chen's table, and said: "King, this is an official document reported by the Ministry of Industry, and the matter is very important, so Weichen did not dare to make a conclusion, and asked the king to take a look." ”
When Lu Chen heard this, he picked up the bamboo slips on the table and unfolded them, and raised his eyes to look at them.
On the bamboo slips, it is said that Xu Huanzhi, the head of Lin'an County, reported to the imperial court and asked for the approval of the Ministry of Industry to dig a canal to revitalize Lin'an water conservancy. The Ministry of Industry thought that this matter was not feasible, so it consulted the right minister, and Xue Huairen did not give any instructions on this matter.
After Lu Chen finished reading, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "The counties of Yandi, hasn't this king already repaired water conservancy?" ”
Xue Huairen said: "Yes, this is also the reason why the Ministry of Industry rejected it. ”
"En......" Lu Chen pondered for a moment, and then asked: "What did Xu Huanzhi say in the official document reported to the imperial court?" ”
Xue Huairen thought for a while and said truthfully: "Lord Xu said that although the embankment has been rebuilt in Linjiangyan, the water is not thick and has been almost dry. He saw that the newly cultivated fertile land was almost barren, and Lin'an was now in great need of restoring people's livelihood, so he suggested that the Ministry of Industry should dig a hundred-mile canal to divert water from other counties into Lin'an. ”
"Hundred miles of canal?" When Lu Chen heard this, he was also taken aback.
Xue Huairen said: "Yes, the stakes are very high, if the instructions go on, the construction will be huge, the gold and silver will be consumed, I don't know how much, therefore, this matter must be approved by the king himself." Fupin Chinese
