Hearing His Majesty's question, all the courtiers instantly fell silent, and all their eyes fell on Yan Su.

"Ahem, Your Majesty, the old minister thinks what Master Gu said is right."

Yan Su walked out calmly, lowered his head and said this slowly.

"Oh?"

"In the history of my Great Qi Kingdom, there have been many natural disasters in various places and capitals, but Lao Chen has never heard of it, and the appearance of natural disasters is actually decided by one person.

Could it be that the person named Lin Shenyuan also appeared in various places and capitals? ”

"Moreover, most of the Taoist chiefs of the people are cheating money, if it is really so magical, how can they do nothing if they have already entered the imperial court and become the Qin Heavenly Prison?"

"If Your Majesty still has doubts, you can ask someone from Qin Tianjian to divinate and send someone to inquire about the specific news of this Lin Shenyuan."

To sum up, Lao Chen thought that the disaster in Qincheng was a disaster, and if he wanted to solve it, he had to find a way to start from the source. For example, when it doesn't rain all the time, how to realize the drinking water irrigation that Master Gu said. ”

After Yan Su finished speaking, he was immediately sought after and nodded yes by some people in the court.

Yan Su didn't react to those people's reactions on the surface, but deep down.

A bunch of waste firewood that can only fall into the wind, really has no other skills except to nod their heads indiscriminately.

He didn't bother to deal with these people.

If it weren't for the fact that listening to what they said was too excessive and exaggerated, and it was simply insulting his intelligence, he wouldn't have wanted to speak.

"Well, I also think that King Heshun is justified in this. In this case, this matter will be handed over to King Heshun to investigate. ”

"Yes, the old minister obeys." Yan Su nodded respectfully.

"As for Qincheng's diversion of water for irrigation to solve the drought, Lord Zhao, you should be careful."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the old minister will definitely think about the solution and live up to His Majesty's trust." Lord Zhao of the Ministry of Industry spoke honestly and fearfully.

"Is there anything else going on with the others?"

“……”

After retiring from the court, a group of ministers walked out of the Jinluan Palace, either alone or in groups.

Lord Zhao in the crowd had a particularly ugly expression, as if he was about to cry.

It's true that their ministry should be in charge of these things, and if it was in the past, he would have ordered it to go on.

But today this matter was mentioned by His Majesty himself, which means that His Majesty has been staring at this matter.

If they don't handle it well, he, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, should finish his calf.

Hey, what should I do, I'm worried about him.

As soon as Lord Zhao thought of this, he didn't even dare to go back to his home after leaving the court, and planned to go directly to the Ministry of Industry to discuss this matter with other officials.

When passing by Jingyunmen Jiuqing's room, he glanced in that direction, and then walked over with his feet raised.

Jiuqingfang is the foreign affairs office of the Great Qi State, that is, the place where the officials on duty collect and classify the folds handed over by local officials.

After stepping in, Lord Zhao walked straight to the inner room and asked, "Is there an excerpt from the prefect of Qincheng recently?" ”

"Lord Zhao, wait a minute, the small one will show you."

It didn't take long to see the little official in charge of the excerpt shaking his head.

"Lord Zhao, no."

"Okay, I see." Lord Zhao walked out of Jiuqing's room and walked towards the Ministry of Works.

It seems that he has to send someone to Qincheng to investigate on the spot.

Lord Zhao had just walked without a stick of incense on his front foot, and a batch of folds came in on his back foot.

The official who selected the classification fold flipped through it for a while, and then saw the fold of the Qincheng prefect's equation, and immediately exclaimed.

"Hey, isn't this the Qin Cheng song that Master Zhao mentioned, is it useful?"

When I was thinking about whether to send someone to inform Lord Zhao, it was time to change shifts.

After the official who came from the shift changed a few words with him, the junior official who was thinking about the problem left the matter behind.

As a result, this record of the solution to the drought in Qincheng, the concept of water conservancy in the future, and the function and structure of the waterwheel appeared in the hands of today's son three days later.

In the past three days, the rumors about Lin Shenyuan have also spread from crazy at the beginning to gradually fall silent now.

However, the results of Yan Su's investigation of Lin Shenyuan had already been placed in front of His Majesty's table the next day.

The investigation showed that Lin Shenyuan was in Qinglin County, his parents died, and he became a businessman, there was nothing very special, let alone any bad stars.

In order to rest assured, Yan Su also specially asked the people of Qin Tianjian to do a divination, and handed the results of the divination to His Majesty's table.

The results of the divination showed that there was no crape myrtle in the north.

Moreover, contrary to rumors, it will not be long before there will be several figures in the north who will be extremely helpful and effective to the court and the Great Qi.

However, in the direction of Yuzhou in the northeast, there seems to be waves, reminding His Majesty to send more people to pay attention to the situation over there.

On the third day, after His Majesty saw the excerpt of Qin Cheng's equation, he thought of Qin Tianjian's words again, and immediately remembered this matter in his heart.

Now that the prefect of Qincheng has a solution to the drought, he will wait and see.

If this year's Qincheng really survived the drought, and the regulations he proposed were really useful, he wouldn't mind bringing the equation with him.

Stone village Bai family.

Bai Tianqi had been torturing those people for more than half a month, and when those people cried and begged to go to the government to surrender, he asked Erhuo to give those people an antidote, and then sent them to the yamen.

Regarding the crime committed by Master Yang, Bai Jinli had already collected a basket and handed it to Bai Qi.

Now when Master Yang was sent to the Yamen, Bai Tianqi also handed over the evidence of Master Yang's crimes.

Then it didn't take long for Master Yang to be sentenced to three years, and as for the other little Luo Luo, they were also punished accordingly.

After learning the news, Xiaolian was simply mad.

Her brother is an idiot.

Everything that was originally conceived is gone.

Now she has tossed around for no reason and has not gained anything.

Not only that, but she didn't know what was going on, and her life in the flower building became more and more difficult.

As for Bai Xiaoming's punishment, in addition to cutting his quota for lifting, he is still being detained for the time being, and there is no other punishment.

Bai Qi would also send him something from time to time, and leave after a few words to him, never mentioning the matter of saving him.

The village's watermill is in the process of being built.

As the watermill took shape day by day, the people in the village became more and more curious.

In addition to the construction of the waterwheel, the ditches and ravines that should have been dug out little by little under Bai Jinli's arrangement.

Compared with their stone village, other villages also have a lot of problems.

Some villages couldn't afford to raise enough money to build a waterwheel, so they dug ditches to divert water, or prayed every day for a rain.

Some villages are going well, such as Sanhuang Village.

Compared with Stone Village, the people of Sanhuang Village are much more united.

This is mainly because Zhong Zizhang is in it and constantly communicates with the people in the village.

After all, before the last locust plague, it was because of Zhong Zizhang's reminder that they were saved from the disaster and received more food than people in other places.

Now he proposed that building a waterwheel could help everyone alleviate the drought, and those people believed it, and tried their best to do it, to pay for what should be paid, and to contribute what should be contributed.

Even Li Aicai and them had some extra money, thinking about whether they could be at the forefront when it was time for irrigation.

Although their fields are rented out, the harvest in the fields is still theirs.

Now that the drought in the fields is so severe, the situation would have been much better if irrigation had been done earlier.

Besides, now that they have a living at home, they won't be unable to take out the money.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, when you go to Lizi's house tomorrow, bring the osmanthus nectar I brewed over to the elder sister and them to taste."

Now is the season of fragrant osmanthus flowers, and the Fang family tossed some things at home, so he thought about sending them to Bai Jinli's house, which can be regarded as a heart.

"Got it, mother." The eldest daughter-in-law, Liu, nodded.

After these days of collecting and selling medicines, it is obvious that their lifestyle has changed a lot compared to before.

Not only did I learn some basic theories of traditional Chinese medicine, but I also knew how to make money by myself, and I knew people in Qinglin County.

These are things they didn't dare to think about before.

A few days ago, the people next door were injured and bleeding, and they also reminded those people that they could use Panax notoginseng to stop the bleeding.

Then after those people used it, the wound really recovered quickly, and they came over to thank them, but Liu and Yuan were very happy.

As for Li Yue, who is particularly talented in traditional Chinese medicine, she also wrote down all the medicinal properties of traditional Chinese medicine taught to her by her mother Yuan in a short period of time, including discrimination.

Thinking that there will be a temporary holiday in the Heavenly Academy tomorrow, the Yuan family plans to bring Li Yue over when he goes to the Bai family tomorrow.

Bai Jinli told her before that if she had time, she could tell Li Yue more about medicinal materials.

Before coming back today, Yuan also asked Bai Jinli, and Bai Jinli agreed.

When Yuan told Li Yue about this, Li Yue was first excited, and then involuntarily a little nervous.

"Mother, am I really going to learn herbal medicine from my cousin? But will my cousin dislike me for being stupid? What if I annoy her? ”

"Yue'er, no, you are so serious and smart, my mother believes that you will be able to learn well. Besides, your cousin is so good now, how can she dislike you. Yuan opened his mouth to comfort.

"Second aunt! When you go to your cousin's house tomorrow, you will also take Li Yue over? Take me, take me, I'm going too, I'm going to learn martial arts from my cousin! ”

Hearing that he was going to Bai Jinli's house, Li Bei ran over with an excited face and took the initiative to speak.

"No, you can't go!" Liu spoke.

"Mother, why! I'm going! Hearing that her mother disagreed, Li Bei hurriedly ran over and hugged Liu's arm and made a fuss.

"Let it go." Liu was helpless by Li Bei, a daughter who was like a leather monkey, and stared at her and spoke.
