Chapter 207: Inquire about the news

After Luo Sheng heard Qiu Jue's words, he clasped his hands into fists: "Thank you Queen Mother for your success." ”

Qiu Jue waved his hand and said, "Don't thank me, this is all your own earnings, but this palace still hopes that you can tell us truthfully where the Peach Blossom Source is." ”

Luo Sheng hesitated for a moment: "This ......"

"You better say it quickly, one is to become the great achievement of the Celestial Empire, and the other is to become the soul of my sword." The blackbird glared at Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng raised his head and said, "No matter what, I won't say it, but I can give you a map, as for whether I can eventually become the minister of the Celestial Empire, this is the fate between us." ”

The blackbird put away his sword.

Seeing that Luo Sheng was very arrogant, the lark couldn't help but praise: "Yes, there is the arrogance of a scholar, but I advise you to say it, even if you don't say it, we will still go." ”

After Luo Sheng heard the lark's words, he sighed: "Hey! You're so persistent! ”

Qiu Jue said: "Luo Sheng, I'll ask you ......"

After Luo Sheng heard Qiu Jue's words, he looked at the latter: "Queen Mother, you ask." ”

Qiu Jue asked, "Are you a member of the Celestial Empire?" ”

Luo Sheng replied: "Yes! ”

Qiu Jue asked again: "Have you received the favor of the Celestial Empire?" ”

"Yes!" Luo Sheng replied.

Qiu Jue continued to ask: "Has your family been rescued by the emperor?" ”

"Yes!" Luo Sheng was puzzled, but some things in his heart seemed to be slowly becoming clearer.

Qiu Jue continued to ask: "The Celestial Empire was once divided, and now that it is reunited, do you want to see the people living in poverty?" ”

"I don't want to." Luo Sheng responded.

Qiu Jue asked: "Well, since this is the case, you should go back to help the emperor, yes, the economy of the Celestial Empire has developed, agriculture has developed, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the country can become rich and strong." ”

"Everything we have done is also for the emperor and the Celestial Empire, only in this way will things like yours be reduced, even if the natural disaster is avoided, it will not be useless."

After Luo Sheng heard Qiu Jue's words, he lowered his head and was silent, and after a long time, he took out a map from his sleeve.

Qiu Jue looked carefully, this map was exactly the same material as the map in her hand, and it could be put together with the map in her hand.

The larks were also very surprised when they saw it, they didn't expect that this Xiucai had such a map in his hand, and he gave it to them very happily.

Luo Sheng saw everyone's expressions and asked, "Is there any problem?" Pass through this road and follow it to reach the Land of Ice. ”

Luo Sheng pointed out the place to Qiu Jue and a few people.

Qiu Jue nodded, and then put the map away: "Okay, but you still need to tell us where that Peach Blossom Land is?" ”

Luo Sheng took out the fifth letter: "This letter does write the way to get to Peach Blossom Spring, but the people there are not normal people, if they are infected with the virus inside, I am afraid they will not think of it for the rest of their lives." ”

"Virus? What you say is horrible. Qiu Jue looked at the latter fiercely after hearing Luo Sheng's words.

Luo Sheng was inexplicably said, he looked at Qiu Jue: "Queen Mother, is there something wrong with whispering?" ”

Qiu Jue shook his head: "No, you take this letter to the regent and Prime Minister Zuo, they will help you, remember, you can't read this letter, only when they are both there, they can open it and read it together." ”

Luo Sheng took the letter that Qiu Jue had just written: "Luo Sheng thanked the Queen Mother. ”

Qiu Jue waved his hand: "Don't thank me, all this is your creation, and it can be regarded as fate, if you are not here, if we don't come here, everything will not be like this." ”

"Since it was fate that made us meet, let this palace know your talent, of course you have to be virtuous, okay, you can clean up and leave, but you will leave in five days."

"Why?" Luo Sheng asked.

Xiao Taohong said a little anxiously: "Oh, you are very good at learning, don't you hear that there is a fight and killing outside?" If you go out at this time, won't you be injured by mistake? ”

After hearing this, Luo Sheng saluted and thanked Xiao Taohong, who smiled, and then returned to Qiu Jue's side.

The sky had already lit up while they were talking, and Qiu Jue and the others took the letters, and after preparing the things they needed, they left the cave.

Luo Sheng looked at the letter in his hand, and he didn't open the envelope to see the contents of it.

After a few days, he made sure there was no sound outside, so he packed his bags and left.

Luo Sheng rented a carriage with a silver ingot left by the little peach, and went straight to the regent's mansion, and after he explained his intentions, he went to the Zuo Prime Minister's mansion.

When the regent and Prime Minister Zuo all met in the hall above Prime Minister Zuo's mansion, Luo Sheng took out Qiu Jue's letter.

The regent and the prime minister looked at each other, then took the letter and opened it.

The letter said, "This person's name is Luo Sheng, is a rare talent, although he does not understand force, but can stabilize the country, his self-written book not only has mathematics, but also economy, art of war and so on. ”

"If you don't worry, you can take the exam in person, this person is not just talking on paper, the Celestial Empire needs to develop the economy, you can let him come up with a plan."

"If this letter is opened in front of the two of them, and it has not been opened before, it shows that the character is honest and usable."

When the regent and Prime Minister Zuo saw this, they thought that the Queen Mother had such a high evaluation of them, and it seemed that they should definitely not take it lightly.

The regent said, "In that case, the official will test you first." ”

Luo Sheng looked at the regent very confidently, and then saluted: "Please ask the prince to ask the question." ”

The regent asked, "What the court lacks most today is the people's economy, and what is lacking is the capital that allows the people to live and work in peace and contentment." ”

Luo Sheng pondered for a moment, and then said: "The Celestial Empire has experienced great ups and downs, from being divided and finally reunited with the efforts of the previous kings, but the people's food, clothing, and clothing have not been solved. ”

"That's the question we're going to ask you, and if so, how do you fix it?" Zuo asked the prime minister.

Luo Sheng said: "The floods in the south for many days, and the severe drought have made it impossible for the people to survive, on the one hand, because the river embankment we have built has no effect at all. ”

"What's the explanation?" Inkstone suddenly appeared outside the hall.

When everyone saw it, they immediately knelt down: "See the emperor, long live long live long live." ”

Inkstone asked everyone to get up, and the regent invited Inkstone to sit on the throne, and the three regent stood there.

Moshi said: "You're welcome, it's not a court now, you don't need to be so restrained, sit down." ”

The regent and the left prime minister sat on the left and right of the ink stone respectively, and Luo Sheng also sat on the left prime minister's lower position.

Moshi looked at Luo Sheng: "Uncle Wang, who is this?" ”

Luo Sheng immediately stood up and knelt in front of Moshi: "Grass people Luo Sheng, see the emperor." ”

"Luo Sheng, get up, I just heard you say that there is a way to solve my country's economic problems, I just want to listen to your thoughts." Moshi said.

The regent looked at Luo Sheng: "Luo Sheng, then you can report to the emperor." ”

Mo Shi raised his hand: "Get up and sit down and talk." ”

After taking his seat, Luo Sheng said, "We should dredge the canals and build dams, only in this way can we prevent the crops from being flooded by the crops of the villages." ”

"These are some of the same old methods, and they don't work every year." Moshi said.

Luo Sheng retorted: "No, Emperor Qi, the channel we built is too small, and the river embankment has too much sediment, and in the long run, no matter how high the river embankment is built, it will be flooded." ”

"So we shouldn't be blocked, but we should be through."

"How?" Zuo asked the prime minister.

"The canal should be widened and then divided into the flow, so that the embankment will not collapse easily, and a reservoir should be built here to store a large amount of water for irrigation and drinking," Luo Sheng said. ”

"It makes sense, but it feels like it's something very simple, as if someone once built a canal." Moshi said.

"In times of drought, all the sediment in the canals is removed, and the sediment can be used to strengthen the banks of the embankment and accumulate from the outside of both sides of the canal, so that the water does not break down the embankment so easily."

There is some truth to this, but how do you do it? And how do you store water? Is it still that kind of water cellar? Zuo asked Prime Minister Zuo.

Luo Sheng shook his head: "If the emperor and the two adults are relieved, please give Luo Sheng a few days, Luo Sheng will make all the drawings and instructions, so that the disaster in the entire south will be reduced, and as for the north, Luo Sheng will also come up with countermeasures." ”

"What about the economy?" Moshi asked.

Luo Sheng said: "Crops are the most basic kind of agricultural economy, and the other is circulation, and only circulation can make the economy recover." ”

"How to recover?" The regent asked.

"Connect with other countries." Luo Sheng replied.

Isn't that what it is now? How else to get through? Moshi asked.

Luo Sheng said: "Although we have ties with other countries, there are very few economic exchanges, and we should diversify. ”

"Nowadays, the Celestial Empire can't buy what you can't sell, and what you sell can't find what you sell, and there are many things in my country and other countries, so we can't make silver taels at all." Luo Sheng explained.

Moshi looked at the regent and Prime Minister Zuo: "What do you think about the two adults?" ”

The regent said: "Your Majesty, this is recommended by the Queen Mother, we might as well let him try, and what he said does make sense." ”

"When he makes the drawings and instructions, if it is really feasible, I will allocate the silver taels for construction, otherwise, let him go back."

Luo Sheng knelt on the ground: "Thank you for the emperor's kindness, Luo Sheng will not disappoint the emperor." ”

Moshi looked at Luo Sheng: "Have you seen the Queen Mother?" Where is she now? ”

"They may have entered the land of ice and snow, and they are ready to go to the Peach Blossom Spring." Luo Sheng replied.

"The Land of Ice and Snow? Shangri-La? What is the place there? What are they going to do there? Moshi asked.

Luo Sheng said: "The land of ice and snow is a country in the far north, and the Peach Blossom Land is a place where there is no dispute with the world. ”
