"Mother, now that I am already an official, you should also make yourself a few better clothes, and don't treat yourself badly." Wei Xiyue said to the Liu family again.

Liu Shi looked himself up and down, and felt that there was nothing inappropriate about him, and said a little disappringly, "Xiyue, even if you become an official, you should save a little, my mother's clothes are good, and they are not for the New Year's holidays, so there is no need to make clothes, and if you want to do it, it should be made for you." ”

Wei Xiyue smiled, she took Liu's hand, "Mother, I naturally know these truths, so don't worry about it." Now you are the mother of the only female official in the world, the only one in the world, and naturally you deserve something better, and you can't let others look down on us. "

When Liu heard Wei Xiyue say this, his brows suddenly relaxed, and he nodded at Wei Xiyue, "You're right, my mother can't lose face for you." Then the mother will pick up a few more pieces of fabric, and make you and your brother a few better clothes. "

Wei Xiyue was also a lot happier when she saw that Liu had listened to her words, so she asked Liu to take someone to the cloth village to look at the clothes and fabrics, and she went to prepare some things to be used in the court.

When the Liu family went to Buzhuang, he also called the Xiao family by the way.

All along, the Xiao family has helped them a lot, and now that Wei Xiyue has finally become an official, the Liu family feels that he should give Xiao something as a thank you, so he thought of calling Xiao up to see the fabric, and he also made a dress for Xiao.

Just when the two of them were about to go out with someone, they happened to bump into Chen Meifang.

Chen Meifang now thought that Wei Xiyue had become an official, and the Liu family was angry when she suppressed herself, so she directly took the maids and others to stand in front of the Liu family, preventing them from leaving.

Seeing this, Liu couldn't help frowning, "Chen Meifang, what are you doing?"

Chen Meifang saw Liu like this, but she was not to be outdone at all, "You ask me what I'm doing, and I want to ask what you're doing?" You're great when your daughter becomes an official, aren't you, and now you're still with so many people in front of me, don't you see that I can't get through?"

Seeing Chen Meifang's appearance of a wicked person suing first, Liu didn't know what to say about her for a while, "Obviously we are going out, you deliberately blocked it, and now you blame us for blocking your way?" Why are you so unreasonable?"

Seeing this, Xiao Shi knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely not be able to find a result, so he hurriedly said, "In the second room, there are fewer of us, why don't you let us go out first, and no one will hinder anyone when you come in, what do you think?"

Let Chen Meifang see it, of course, it is not good.

But before Chen Meifang could speak, Xiao Shi added, "If you don't think it's okay, then we can only go back to Xiyue first." "

Chen Meifang was naturally clear about the matter between Wei Xiyue and the old lady before.

Chen Meifang is a bully who is afraid of the hard, she relies on the old lady in the house, and now even the old lady can't deal with Wei Xiyue, Chen Meifang was even more stunned when she heard Wei Xiyue's name, so she had to take someone out of the way and let the Liu family pass first.

But even if Chen Meifang gave in, both sides were holding their breath in their hearts, because no one gave anyone a good look.

Wei Xiyue has not officially reported to the court, because she doesn't have those political affairs in her hands now, and she can be regarded as free, so Huo Lingxiao also took advantage of this time to send someone to invite Wei Xiyue to his mansion to discuss matters.

Wei Xiyue naturally would not refuse, as soon as she received Huo Lingxiao's invitation, she hurriedly went to Huo Lingxiao's mansion.

When the two met, they simply exchanged two words, and then went straight to the point.

"How's the latest security over there?" Huo Lingxiao looked at Wei Xiyue and asked.

Wei Xiyue shook her head and said, "Recently, there have been people secretly probing, but I don't know what their purpose is, I didn't alarm them, they should have found nothing." "

Huo Lingxiao nodded, "You did a good job, but if they don't find anything, they will never be reconciled, and the number of people secretly probing you will definitely not decrease, but only more and more." "

"So what do you think I should do?" Wei Xiyue looked at Huo Lingxiao with some inquiry and asked.

"As far as I can see, we might as well put some fake news out and let them think that they have got the real news, so that we can get rid of some of their people, and it will be much easier for us to do things. Even if the fake news is quickly exposed, then we will delay for some time. Huo Lingxiao looked at Wei Xiyue, and there seemed to be a light in his eyes.

After Huo Lingxiao finished saying his thoughts, he added, "What do you think of my thoughts?"

Wei Xiyue nodded, "This is a good idea, whether this plan is successful or not, it can bring us some benefits, I think we can give it a try." "

Huo Lingxiao was also very happy to be affirmed, and the two continued to talk about this topic until the sun was about to set, Wei Xiyue realized that it was too late, and said goodbye and left.

The next day, that is, the day when Wei Xiyue went to court for the first time.

It's not the first time that Wei Xiyue has faced this court, for her, this court even has a lot of familiarity, and she looks very sophisticated with her whole person, not at all like the first time she went to court.

Recently, there was another drought in the northwest, and the emperor also emphasized this matter in the court, which brought it to Wei Xiyue.

"Regarding this drought in the northwest, I am going to allocate 20 million taels of silver and 2 million stones of grain to send people down to help the people, open warehouses and release grain, Wei Xiyue, what do you think?" The Emperor asked suddenly.

Wei Xiyue also knew about this matter for a long time, so she didn't seem flustered at all.

Normal people encounter this kind of thing, under normal circumstances, they only need to praise the emperor for his kindness at this time, but Wei Xiyue is not.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks it's impossible." Wei Xiyue bowed her head and said with a respectful look.

Although what she said was not at all respectful.

Weichen thought that if the emperor really did this, it would be a little inappropriate. The great drought in the northwest is not once or twice, and every time the emperor allocates relief food, there is no less, but why do so many people still starve to death every time there is a drought?" Wei Xiyue asked a rhetorical question, and she quickly answered it.

"That's because, every time the officials in charge of relief are those people, even if the emperor allocates a lot of silver and grain, but in the hands of these people, layer by layer, in the end, the people don't get much. Therefore, Weichen believes that the most important thing in dealing with drought is not relief, but these officials. Wei Xiyue said seriously, not caring at all what kind of turbulent waves her words stirred up in the eyes of others.

In fact, everyone knows that the relief grain was exploited, and Wei Xiyue was the first to spread this matter out like this and put it on the table.

Hearing Wei Xiyue say this, the emperor was suddenly a little interested in Wei Xiyue's opinion, and motioned for Wei Xiyue to continue, "Then tell me what you should do." ”

Wei Xiyue nodded, and then continued, "The minister thinks that someone should be sent as an official to go to disaster relief to ensure that the food and silver used for disaster relief will not be taken away too much. Moreover, there is a major drought in the northwest almost every year, and there are often major floods after the drought, and basically speaking, there is no time for the northwest to stop, so the minister believes that we should solve this problem from the root. ”

Speaking of which, Wei Xiyue deliberately sold a pass again and did not continue to talk about it.

In order to let Wei Xiyue continue, the emperor could only continue to ask, "Tell me, how are you going to solve this drought." "

Wei Xiyue then continued, "According to the minister's understanding of the northwest, because of the severe drought in the northwest, the northwest can barely harvest crops once in almost three years. And because of the serious soil erosion, the land has basically lost the ability to raise crops, so the minister believes that the land should be cultivated.

Taking advantage of this drought, digging reservoirs ahead of time to store rainwater for the upcoming rainy season and digging drainage ditches that connect to rivers will ensure that the upcoming rainy season flooding is mitigated. "

After Wei Xiyue finished speaking, the entire court was silent, and even the emperor fell into deep thought.

After hearing this, the crown prince and Huo Zeyu were also very surprised by Wei Xiyue's opinion.

They had also heard many old ministers who had dealt with drought talk about their experience before, but Wei Xiyue's views were completely different from theirs, and they even felt that Wei Xiyue's opinions were better than those of those old ministers.

When the crown prince and Huo Zeyu were surprised, the emperor had already added some previous experience from Wei Xiyue's insights and came up with a way to alleviate the drought.

"Wei Qing really lived up to my expectations, what you said is very good, I decided, as you said, send a person to go to disaster relief, and at the same time this person supervised the project, I allocated 30 million taels of silver and 2 million stone of grain. In this way, can any of the secretaries in the family take the initiative to take on this errand?" The emperor glanced around the officials in the court, and then said.

And his title for Wei Xiyue has also changed from calling her by her name to Wei Qing, which also shows the emperor's recognition of Wei Xiyue's talent.

Merely...... After the emperor asked this, none of the courtiers was willing to raise their heads and take on the burden.

After all, this is a chore, and it is naturally a great achievement to complete it, but if it is not completed, not only will it not please you, but you may also lose your head. Above this court, everyone is a human spirit, and naturally no one will take the initiative to take this matter.

Since no one is willing to take the initiative, the emperor can only order people, "Li Shangshu, you have experience in this matter, why don't you try again?"

Li Shangshu hurriedly refused, "Saint, the ministers are so old, they really can't move......

The emperor turned his gaze to the next person again, but several people hurriedly refused.
