Chu Zheng retracted his gaze, "Although your idea is bold, it is not unreasonable. ”

His voice was as cold as usual, and there was nothing unusual about him.

Chu Zheng's composure made Huo Sijin feel a sense of suspicion, as if nothing had happened, it was just an illusion.

It seemed that he was too nervous, and Chu Zheng didn't find anything. It's just that Fang Cai was too close, and her physiological reaction made her feel embarrassed. In Chu Zheng's eyes, the two of them are both men, and he will not have the same embarrassing feeling as her.

Huo Sijin calmed down, calmed his heart, and his face gradually returned to normal, and said respectfully: "Your Highness is wise." ”

A hint of discoloration flashed in Chu Zheng's eyes, and it was so fast that Huo Sijin didn't notice it.

"It is feasible for Ningzhou to adopt the method of dredging the south and blocking the north, but Huzhou is different." Chu Zheng pointed to the map, the situation in Huzhou was different from Ningzhou, and there was no place like Fengzhou around it.

Huzhou is surrounded by floods, but Huzhou is the most serious of them.

"The matter of repairing drainage ditches in Huzhou mentioned in the excerpt has been done a lot in Huzhou in recent years, but it has achieved little success."

Huo Sijin said: "The reason why there is a peach blossom flood is because the river water rises sharply. Second, the Peach Blossom Flood period coincided with the flood of rain, which led to the flooding. There is nothing inappropriate in the method of building drainage ditches and dividing floodways to control floods, and as for why it has achieved little results, Changjin believes that it may be because the local officials are not dedicated. ”

"Not satisfied? Are you trying to say that some people fill their pockets and ignore people's livelihood? ”

Chu Zheng's eyes were cold, "My father has given permission to this palace to go to Huzhou in person, and the first thing this palace did when I arrived in Huzhou was to take off these people's black yarn hats." ”

Huo Sijin obviously felt that when Chu Zheng said this, he was very angry, and even faintly murderous, he was afraid that he would not only take off the black gauze hats of these people, but even take off their heads.

Such a thunderous method is indeed the style of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is precisely because of this that some people say that the crown prince Chu Zheng has a violent temperament and vicious methods.

"His Royal Highness went to Huzhou in person to solve the Taohuaxun incident, as for the punishment of relevant officials, Changjin thought that he would be dealt with when he became His Majesty."

After working in the East Palace for more than ten days, Huo Sijin gradually figured out Chu Zheng's temperament - jealousy and hatred. If she told Chu Zheng directly, leaving these people's lives would only cause him unhappiness.

Therefore, Huo Sijin changed his statement, Chu Zheng asked for a decree to go to Huzhou, what was the decree requested? It is about dealing with floods, not corrupt officials. As the crown prince, the crown prince does have the power to remove officials, but he should also report to the emperor.

"Corrupt officials and corrupt officials are by no means just a place, if His Royal Highness wants to rectify the trend of filling his own pockets, Changjin thinks that it should be dealt with by His Majesty, so that it can also play a role in killing a hundred people."

Immediately, Huo Sijin said again: "This matter is not in a hurry, just wait until you go to Huzhou to deal with it as appropriate." Just a gutter repair ceremony. There is no time to delay. The peach blossom flood is coming, and Changjin is worried that it will be too late to rebuild the drainage ditch at this time. ”

This is also the biggest problem facing us at the moment. Rao is Huo Sijin thought about it for two days and two nights, but he didn't come up with the most appropriate way.

Building drainage ditches is not an overnight thing, and no matter how much manpower, material and financial resources are invested, it is impossible to repair them in a short time. Huzhou is bound to be a bitter battle, a battle between the Southern Chu people and God.

"Of course it's too late now, a month ago, the palace had already ordered someone to start building a drainage ditch, but the palace still underestimated this year's peach blossom flood ......" Chu Zheng pointed to the peak of the source of the river, when the spring flowers bloomed, the ice and snow on the peak melted, which caused the river to rise sharply. This year's snow and ice melt is much more likely than ever. Even if he had arranged for someone to build the drainage ditch in advance, it was still too late.

"Your Highness has already arranged for the construction of drainage ditches, but why have you never heard of it?"

As soon as the words fell, Huo Sijin reacted: "This is what Your Highness did in secret, and you didn't tell Your Majesty, let alone mention this matter in the court?" ”

Chu Zheng didn't speak, but his faint eyes already said everything, Huo Sijin's guess was right.

Huo Sijin frowned, "Your Highness, have you ever thought that if Your Majesty sent you to the border and the matter of Peach Blossom Flood was handed over to someone else, then you would be making wedding clothes for others." ”

No wonder, she always felt strange in her previous life, this year's peach blossom flood was extremely serious, but Chu Li didn't seem to make much effort to deal with the aftermath, it turned out that Chu Zheng had already laid a good foundation, and Chu Li picked up a big bargain for nothing.

The good people all let Chu Li do it, and the credit is all Chu Li's, and Chu Zheng didn't get anything. At this moment, Huo Sijin seemed to see his former self in Chu Zheng, making wedding clothes for others. And this other person is still Chu Li.

Huo Sijin couldn't help but sulk when he thought about it, why did he let Chu Li get benefits? The real hero is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Chu Zheng, is it good.

Thinking like this, Huo Sijin became more and more determined to help Chu Zheng deal with the peach blossom flood smoothly!

"Your Highness, the peach blossom flood is imminent, Changjin requests to go to Huzhou first to deal with the construction of drainage ditches for His Highness." The belief became more and more firm, so much so that Huo Sijin's voice couldn't help but rise a few degrees.

Looking at Huo Sijin, who was suddenly full of energy and confidence, Chu Zheng couldn't help frowning, what's wrong with her?

"Please believe in Changjin, Changjin will not disappoint His Highness."

Huo Sijin thought that Chu Zheng suspected her of being young and incapacitated, so she hurriedly explained: "When Changjin was a teenager, he often had the ambition to travel all over the world, so he read a lot of geographical chronicles, especially Huzhou, Ningzhou and other places. Changjin is quite familiar with the topography of these places, which is helpful for building drainage ditches. ”

"Tomorrow, you will set off with this palace and go to Huzhou." Chu Zheng granted her request, but added an extra one, and he walked with her.

Hearing this, Huo Sijin was stunned for a while, "Your Highness, do you want to be with you too?" ”

Chu Zheng glanced at Huo Sijin, "Huo Changjin, this palace wants to see how well you read the geographical chronicle, you don't want to disappoint this palace." ”

Huo Sijin put away his stunnedness, bowed to Chu Zheng, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and replied loudly: "Changjin will not disappoint His Highness." ”

It's okay, take advantage of this matter to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince see her ability.

"If Your Highness has no other orders, Changjin will retire."

Chu Zheng nodded, signaling that she could retreat.

It's just that Huo Sijin was just about to turn around, but Chu Zheng's voice came from beside him, "Huo Changjin, although you are young, this palace thinks that you have a talent for doing things." ”

For the talent!

These four words were extremely serious, Huo Sijin was suddenly stunned, and then sneered: "Your Highness, this is a false praise, Changjin can't afford it." ”

"If you can't afford it, it's not up to you to decide." Chu Zheng raised his eyes to look at her, and that gaze seemed to be looking, exploring, and even as if he wanted to see her through.

Under the sleeves, Huo Sijin pinched his palm, and a chuckle pulled out of the corner of his lips: "Being valued by His Royal Highness is already a blessing for Changjin." ”

Chu Zheng retracted his gaze and said lightly: "In the future, in front of this palace, there is no need to say such a scene." You go, you leave early tomorrow morning, you pack your luggage, and the palace will send someone to pick you up. ”

Huo Sijin nodded, "Yes, Your Highness." ”

……

After Huo Sijin left, Chu Zheng summoned Zheng Changdong and Zheng Changqing's brothers, and Zhengse ordered: "Leave for Huzhou tomorrow, Changdong, you go down immediately to prepare." Changqing, you stay in the outer hall tonight, and no one is allowed to enter the dormitory of the main palace. ”

"Yes, obedience." Zheng Changdong and Zheng Changqing brothers responded in unison.

When the brother was commanded, he withdrew. After walking out of the study, Zheng Changqing saw that there was no one around, and whispered to Zheng Changdong's ear: "Brother, don't you think Your Highness is a little strange recently, every time you see Lord Huo Changjin Huo, he always orders people to guard the outer hall at night, and no one is left in the inner hall, and no one is allowed to enter, I have never seen His Highness have such a quirk before, what do you say is going on?" ”

Zheng Changdong glanced at his younger brother and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness's affairs are not allowed to be discussed casually, put away your curiosity as soon as possible!" ”

This younger brother is good at everything, but sometimes his curiosity is too heavy and his mouth is too broken.

"How can I talk casually, that is, to say a few words to you." Zheng Changqing muttered, "Your Highness always asks the two of us to guard the outer hall, which shows that Your Highness trusts me and my brother, and it doesn't matter if I say a few words to my brother." ”

He didn't know why Chu Zheng had such a habit, but it was His Royal Highness's secret, and Zheng Changqing, as a confidant, would never pass on the secret.

"Your Highness has your own reasoning, you should guard the outer hall tonight, and you are not allowed to ponder." Zheng Changdong was not at ease, and told his younger brother a few more words before walking away.

In fact, Zheng Changqing has doubts in his heart, and Zheng Changdong is not, but he has always known proportions, and what he shouldn't ask is resolutely rotten in his stomach......
