Although it is not a sudden occurrence, there are many more traders now, and there is no shortage of things.

In addition to the Chinese New Year, people can also buy their favorite things on weekdays.

The silks that are common in the south can also be bought frequently.

This can make a woman who loves beauty very happy.

In the past, in order to be able to buy a good cloth, not only had to wait for three or four months, but also had to drag all kinds of relationships and find a way.

Today, the prince has introduced a series of tax-free and low-tax policies to encourage traders to travel around the country.

Transporting things from the north to the south, and sending things from the west to the east.

The whole country is alive and well under the auxiliary government of the crown prince.

Among them, the most grateful to the lonely and widowed elderly is the renovation of dilapidated houses ordered by the prince to be strictly implemented.

In the past, whenever it was windy and rainy, these old houses would leak with the rain, and they were damp and wet, and they could not live at all.

Under the order to renovate dilapidated houses, these old houses were forbidden to be occupied.

The people who were forced to move out lived in newly renovated houses under a unified arrangement.

For some lonely and poor elderly, not only can they live in a newly renovated house, but they can also receive a sum of silver every month.

Children of school age can go to private schools for free.

This gave the children of poor families the opportunity to carp to jump over the dragon gate, so the prince's status in people's minds became higher and higher, and even some people's walls hung the portrait of the prince to worship.

Years of stability have made the hearts of the people more stable, and the fertile land is also increasing day by day.

The silver taels that were confiscated into the treasury gradually piled up.

But the prince did not use the money to satisfy his own pleasure, but more to use the money to reward the soldiers at the border.

In the prince's view, only when the border is stabilized, the people and the country will have a good life.

In addition to the border passes, the prince also ordered a large-scale renovation of the waterway, because there were more ships coming and going, the original waterway was already a little congested, coupled with the erosion of floods over the years, the waterway was often flooded in a small area.

Although the people didn't say anything, the prince knew that this was a major event that the whole country had to do well.

The prince personally inspected the waterway and asked the accompanying water officer to record the situation of the waterway.

With first-hand and accurate information, the prince can be targeted.

Because the waterway spanned a long time, the prince divided the waterway into three sections, and each section sent a minister of first rank to supervise it.

In addition, when the prince asked questions in the palace, the first thing he asked was the progress of the management of the waterways.

Therefore, there are many officials who are usually unknown, but because of their merits in water control, they have been given the opportunity to be promoted.

Waterway management has a lot to do with the weather.

If there is a rainy day, often the previous few days of governance will be in vain.

The freshly dug up silt was refilled after a burst of rain.

And this is also the fundamental reason why waterway management is laborious and laborious.

But the prince did not flinch from the battle, pretending to be the suffering of the people, and the prince thought more about how to repair the waterway as soon as possible.

In order to reduce the impact of muddy water on the waterways on both banks, the prince had a large number of willow trees planted along the river, because the willow roots spread out and could catch more soil.

On the other hand, in order to repair the waterways before the rainy season, the prince also called in some of the local defenders to do things.

During the day, you can work normally, and at night, you can work in a hurry with torches.

As loadloads of silt were dug out of the waterway, the waterway gradually widened.

And this long-lasting sludge is a high-quality fertilizer, spread on any piece of saline-alkali land, and immediately can be planted with any kind of melon and fruit.

Advancing mile by mile, digging up little by little, the scenery on both sides of the waterway gradually brightened.

Under the personal supervision of the prince, the waterways have also been greatly improved, and looking at the daily boats coming and going, the prince's face also showed a satisfied smile.

In the palace of Wu Guogong, in the garden, the cold wind swished, like a sharp arrow through the leaky window on the wall, and also got into the crack of the attic door, and the window that was not closed tightly was blown and creaked. The lantern under the eaves is also shaken by the blown thing. Around a pavilion near the water, there is a circle of plum blossoms, or pink, or red, which makes the lonely pavilion a lot more lively at once.

Zhou Jinxuan was wearing a tan long-sleeved cotton jacket, with a colorful undershirt inside, the exposed neckline was a circle of swastikas, the lower body, a pair of black pants tight, and a pair of brown leather boots on his feet.

Lin Zhongchao was wearing a bright yellow long-sleeved stand-up collar long coat, the clothes were printed with bamboo leaf patterns at will, and the outside of the long coat was a goose down short jacket, the snow-white fluff was soft, and the short jacket was soft to the touch.

The two are playing against each other.

On the green jade chessboard, black and white are distinct, and the battle is almost stalemate, on par.

"Zhong Chao, your chess skills are becoming more and more similar to Ah Zheng." Zhou Jinxuan said, "No wonder Ah Zheng has improved a lot of chess games recently, it turns out that the two of you have played a lot of games." ”

If it weren't for the many games of chess, the moves would not become more and more similar.

Lin Zhongchao didn't argue, and said with a smile: "That's Ah Zheng and you who raised me, where can I play chess." ”

"You can't play chess, but you can teach people how to play chess." Zhou Jinxuan teased, "My precious daughter is your student." ”

Lin Zhongchao said: "Wu Guogong laughed, maybe I'm a student of Ah Zheng." ”

"Oh, Ah Zheng is so powerful?" Zhou Jinxuan was interested in getting up.

As long as it is about his baby daughter, Zhou Jinxuan is always very interested.

Lin Zhongchao nodded, "Ah Zheng has recently given the emperor a problem, and asked the emperor to give it to my father, and the emperor remembers that he is angry, and he is still bedridden." ”

"Really? Isn't that no different from Zen? Zhou Jinxuan smiled, "What did the prince say?" ”

Lin Zhongchao's face was heavy, "My father was kind and unwilling to persecute the emperor, so he found the best doctor to heal the emperor." ”

Zhou Jinxuan said: "I have long expected that the prince has always been the most filial. It's a pity that the emperor is still dissatisfied with such a filial son. ”

"The emperor is very sick this time, it seems that he can't afford to be sick. However, when the doctor went to see it, he couldn't see the specific disease. Lin Zhongchao let go of a white child.

Zhou Jinxuan's eyebrows furrowed, "Zhong Chao, could the emperor be blowing up his illness?" ”

Lin Zhongchao nodded, "There is a possibility." However, why did the emperor blow up the disease? I can't think of a reason. ”

"The emperor is also speculating, don't worry." Zhou Jinxuan took it lightly.

Lin Zhongchao put another white son, "Wu Guogong, you lost." ”

Zhou Jinxuan looked at the chessboard, and suddenly realized, "Ah, I actually lost, I didn't pay attention." ”

Lin Zhongchao said: "Therefore, for people like the emperor, we must be vigilant, if you don't pay attention, you may be harmed by the emperor." ”
