(Strong push, ask for recommendation votes)

The rainstorm came quickly, and the idiot had never seen such a heavy rain.

It seemed that in a moment, the extremely hot and bright noon turned into night, dark clouds covered the sky, huge thunder rolled in the clouds, and lightning "crackled".

In the afternoon, the Six Arts class was held in the East Garden. In this pouring rain, where can you ride a horse?

No, without waiting for the companions to ask, the gentleman has already sent someone to pass the word, because of the heavy rain, the horseback riding class is suspended, and everyone has a half-day holiday.

Candles were lit in the room, and the Taoist idiot was originally holding a book, but looking at the pouring rain outside the window, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

The rain has been uninterrupted since April this year. This has just entered the flood season, and there is such a heavy rain.

It is necessary to know that the water runs through the Anlu border, the Zhangshui flows from the west to the south, and the entire Anlu mountains and rivers are surrounded by water and land. Plain is a good thing, the water is fertile and the fields are fertile, and the income is gratifying, if the flood comes, most of Anlu will become Heze.

The north and east of Anlu are hilly, the west is deep and deep, and the fertile fields of the entire Anlu are mainly concentrated in the south. The southern part of the country is low-lying and is a river valley plain. It's the middle of May, and in another month it's rice harvest time, and if the rain continues like this, the rice fields will rot in water.

The harvest is not harvested, and the people are unstable; When King Ning rebelled, maybe it would induce the people to revolt.

If there is chaos in the territory of Anlu, if it is chaotic, it will give the court and other kings the handle to attack the Xingwang Mansion, and it will be unclear when the prince inherits the throne.

But there are some things that I can't mention yet, what should I do?

The idiot stood in front of the window, thinking a little headache. But after thinking about it, he felt that he must be well fed. In the south of the city, there are not only the land of the gentry and the common people, but also the Zhuangzi of the palace.

Xingwangfu is the younger brother of Emperor Hongzhi, the uncle of the current emperor, and is the closest vassal king to the imperial family. The two generations of emperors were also extremely generous to King Xing, a close relative. The land under the name of Xingwangfu has also expanded from more than 400 hectares at the beginning to more than 8,000 hectares at present.

Among the more than 8,000 hectares, more than 3,000 hectares of official land were given by the imperial court, and these lands nominally belonged to the royal government, but in fact they were entrusted by the local government. There are more than 3,000 hectares of fertile land, and the annual income brought to the palace is only 5,000 to 10,000 taels of silver. Of course, the taxes of these official fields are exempt from tax, otherwise the palace may have to pay it upside down.

The remaining 5,000 hectares are private land, and the main income of the royal palace comes from these private fields. These fields were purchased or reclaimed by the royal government with money, and they were routinely required to pay taxes to the imperial court, but they could also bring more than 200,000 taels of silver to the palace every year.

The amount of rice that the palace can receive from the imperial court every year is limited, and it is not enough for the palace to spend at all. The main expenses of the royal palace still come from the grange.

Looking at the situation of the rain coming from the beginning of summer this year, there will be a major flood in summer and autumn, which will not only affect the rice harvest in June, but also whether the rice fields can start the second crop smoothly in the second half of the year.

For the royal palace, this is definitely a big deal.

Thinking about this, the idiot is down-to-earth.

It was a rainy day and it wasn't a day to study, so he put down his book and went to sleep.

When I woke up in the middle of the night, the rain outside was still unabated, and the idiot couldn't help but be a little lucky, fortunately the roof of the house was repaired last winter, otherwise the house would definitely not be able to stand the heavy rain of this day and night.

The northern city is on the high side, and there should be no water accumulation; This time, Nancheng is afraid that it will be flooded.

The next day, when the idiot opened his eyes, the rain outside had stopped.

The sky was as blue as a wash, but there was half a foot of water in the courtyard because of the rapid rain.

If this is still the case inside the palace, what will happen outside?

The sting had already found the cowhide water boots and sent them over.

While having breakfast at Lequntang, Wang Qi muttered: "This rain is too heavy, and there was a thunder yesterday." Around seven o'clock in the evening (seven o'clock in the evening), thunder and lightning were connected, which was really scary. Fortunately, it's sunny, and in a few days, it's still not called life. ”

Liu Congyun's smile was a little faint, he looked out through the window screen, and said, "I don't know how many days it will be sunny this time, I hope it can be relieved for a few days." ”

Chen Chizhong said: "This rain is indeed the culprit, there is stagnant water in the palace, and it can be seen outside. On the side, the southern city is low-lying and the houses are dilapidated, so I am afraid that the people will suffer. ”

Only Lu Wenzhao, although his knowledge is mediocre, but he brought the scholars to the world, and looked at everyone with some surprise: "It's just a rain, and it's worth nagging." Wouldn't it be nice to skip half a day's class? ”

Everyone gave him a blank look, Lu Wenzhao was a little annoyed, and said to the Taoist idiot who had never spoken: "Erlang, what do you say?" ”

Dao idiot said: "The brothers are worried about the people's livelihood and economy, the natural disasters are ruthless, and the people are innocent. However, the second brother and the second master don't have to worry too much, the prince has always loved the people like a son, and he can't say that he has arranged for people to go out to repair the dam. ”

Wang Qi said: "Do you have to use silver to build the dam? Will the prince build a dam? ”

It's not that he is disrespectful to King Xing, but it's really because building a dam is a laborious and unpleasing thing, and it is easy to have all kinds of troubles.

The rest of the people also looked disbelieving, smiling and not explaining much to everyone.

King Xing didn't need to pay for the embankment himself, as long as he found a reason to get the local officials to do it. You don't have to pay out of your own pocket, and you can still get the reputation of the people, why not? Whether it is the cost of money or hard work, it is the gentry and the common people who complain, and the king only needs to move his mouth.

Not for the side, just for the more than 200,000 taels of silver that year, King Xing will also be very enthusiastic.

After breakfast, everyone arrived at the Dacheng Palace.

Shizi has always been delayed, but today he has already arrived first and is waiting here. It's still the usual dress of the prince, but there is a little difference between the eyebrows and eyes, as if there is a faint excitement.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Until the end of class at noon, Shizifang told everyone the reason: "Yesterday the heavy rain was raging, and my father was worried about the tomb of King Liang in the south of the city, so he told Gu to go out of the city tomorrow to visit, and everyone went with Gu!" ”

They are all half-grown teenagers, and they can't help but be excited when they hear this.

Lu Bing smiled even more, and whispered to the prince: "Your Highness, I will ride a horse tomorrow, don't take a car!" ”

Shizi's eyes lit up and said, "The lonely red cloud is also carried." ”

Wang Qi stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, will you go back that day, or will you rest there for the night?" ”

He had heard that the two royal tombs in Anlu and the tomb of King Ying, which were close to each other, were twenty miles east of the city; The tomb of King Liang is quite far away, forty-five miles south of the city.

These two princes are childless and eliminate the domain, and every year they are sacrificed for life and death, and they are sacrificed by the Xingwang Mansion and the official government.

Hearing this, Shizi's excitement decreased slightly: "I have to go and return on the same day, so everyone has to get up early." ”

They are all energetic half-grown teenagers, who cares about sleeping more and sleeping less? Even Lu Wenzhao, an authentic otaku of the Ming Dynasty, also showed a look of anticipation.

Shizi straightened his chest and said, "Don't forget to bring your own bow and arrows. If you have time, you can also try riding archery! Speaking of which, he looked at Lu Bing. Obviously, it is to take care of this martial arts brother who has such an arrangement.

Hearing this, Lu Bing almost danced with joy.

Everyone also had a smile on their faces, but when they came out of the Dacheng Hall, everyone looked up at the sky and prayed for good weather tomorrow.

The status of the prince is precious, and if it is cloudy tomorrow, the princess will definitely keep people.

After studying with the gentleman in the palace for more than half a year, everyone knows more about the affairs of the vassal country.

The prince has no surviving brothers, and the future of the royal family is with him; If he has a case, no matter how brilliant the Xingwang Mansion is, the prince will also end up in a "childless country" a hundred years later, and the princess and the two county lords will become rootless duckweed.

In the Sixth Companion Study, Chen Chizhong and Lu Bing did not participate in the children's examination. When the other four companions were reading at night, these two were not idle, but they just focused on martial arts.

The Taoist idiot once made a move with Chen Chizhong, but he was defeated in less than twenty moves. The Taoist idiot is not a pure nerd, and the old monk did not toss him in his early years. This is not Chen Chizhong's opponent, in addition to his young age and lack of strength, it also shows that Chen Chizhong does have two brushes.

It seems that they will be divided into two departments: civil and military.

It's just that I don't know what Chen Chizhong is asking for, if he is attached to the palace, why don't he go to the Taoist robe? When he first entered the mansion last year, the big guy also had some speculations, wondering if he wanted to use the power of the palace to regain control of Xuanmiaoguan. After all, his uncle and grandfather were the masters of the mystical view.

But after a long time, I found that he was like everyone else, he should go to class, except for being a vegetarian and wearing a robe, he didn't look like a monk at all.

Sometimes, Taoist idiots envy Chen Chizhong's identity. Not to mention the side, just by virtue of the identity of this little Taoist, he can make the father and son of King Xing, who respect Taoism, treat each other differently.

There was nothing to say all night, because the departure time was early, everyone woke up before dawn, and they were all a little excited.

Not only because of the trip, but also because they traveled with the prince for the first time as the entourage of the prince.

Although no one has yet told them what their specific position will be in the Xingwang Mansion in the future, for those who are already familiar with the structure of the palace, there is a rough estimate.

The four people from the text, no matter which step they can go in the end, should start from the palace of the nine products to accompany the reading or the introduction of the gift people; The two who practice martial arts must be in the Department of Honor and Guard.

But now I just think about it, although the prince has already asked for the title of the prince, but because he is the only son, there is no separate prince's mansion, and these people want to officially make up the errand, how can they wait until the prince has passed the "childhood ceremony".

Forty-five miles may not be a long distance for others, but for the noble son, it can also be regarded as a hike.

In addition to the companion of the school of the house, the accompanying prince also traveled with the prince of the palace chief official Yuan Zonggao, the head of the palace guard, the honor guard Zheng Lu Dian, the escort was the sixty honor guards of the honor guard department, and the three hundred personal soldiers of the palace guard pro-army command envoy.

The scale of nearly 400 people, in the awe-inspiring eyes of the people, went out of the city along the north-south highway in the city, roaring away......
