Thinking of this, the people were even more excited, and they knelt on the ground to thank Qi Moxiao for making decisions for them.

Qi Moxiao felt a little sorry for these people, and hurriedly ordered them all to get up, and said to them: "We are sent by the emperor to supervise the work!" These officials don't treat you as human beings, but the emperor feels sorry for you! Now that this official has been punished by us, your wages will be doubled from now on! And three meals a day! A meal is indispensable! ”

"I will also send a new group of people to replace you, and you will be in a hurry during the day, and others will come and continue your work in the evening, and your wages will not be less! I'm going to have you settle all your previous wages now! ”

After Qi Moxiao finished speaking, he directly ordered those he brought to send money.

The workers never thought that they would be able to get the money before the project was completed, and they were happy for a while, and they were even more grateful to the emperor.

Yun Zhuyue also said at this time: "The emperor loves the people like a son, and has never thought of treating you badly, it is these inappropriate officials who are desperately suppressing you, but the emperor loves you, and all the benefits we give you today are the emperor's will!" ”

Everyone was even more grateful to the emperor, and the matter was over.

Nan Xiang witnessed what Qi Moxiao and Yun did to appease people's hearts month by month, but he felt even more unwilling in his heart.

Obviously, she can say those words, but Yun Zhuyue has taken the limelight, and the most important point is that Qi Moxiao is also protecting Yun Zhuyue!

This made her feel very unhappy.

Nanyu actually had some unhappiness in his heart, originally he heard that there were workers making trouble here, and the officials were excessively oppressing the workers, so he wanted to come here to see if there was anything that could make trouble.

I didn't expect to be so quiet by Qi Moxiao and them!

When I got back, I had a big fire.

The envoy of the South China Sea was the second time to see Nanyu so angry, the first time it was because of Nanxiang, and now it was because of Qi Moxiao.

"The prince doesn't need to be angry, the emperor of Daliang can calm things down, then of course we can also spread rumors! Didn't they say that the canal was excavated in the wrong direction and caused soil erosion? I don't think it will be long before the project goes wrong. ”

"The emperor of Daliang shouldn't have had time to deal with this matter, once there is a problem on the other side of the canal, our chance will come! At that time, we will tell you that it is because the new emperor's succession is unknown, which led to one series of accidents in the canal! ”

"The workers all believe this, no matter how much they worship the emperor of Daliang now, I can guarantee one thing, when they hear this rumor, they will not hesitate to choose to believe it, and think that it is the new emperor's reason that caused the accident on this side of the canal!"

"When the rumors spread, this project will have to be stopped, the emperor of Daliang has other things to deal with, and there is no time to take care of us at all, and when the time comes, isn't it easy for us to do something?"

After Nanyu listened to the words of the envoy from the South China Sea, he suddenly felt that there was a little bit of reason, and then said: "I don't know how long it will take for the project to have an accident, not to mention that Qi Moxiao and they have already discovered this problem in advance, and they should stop it in time." ”

"Why don't we use some hands and feet to speed up the problem of the project, so that we can achieve our goal as soon as possible!" We've been here for nearly two months, and if we continue to delay, I'm afraid it will be half a year before we go back! ”

"Father can't wait for us for so long, originally I thought it would be solved in three months at the earliest, but I didn't expect that now that two months have passed, we haven't done anything, we have to speed up."

The envoy of the South China Sea understood what Nanyu was anxious about, and agreed immediately, taking advantage of the dark night and high wind, let people go to the canal to do something, and sure enough, something happened on the canal the next day.

Nanyu was not idle, and soon ordered his subordinates to spread rumors.

Just when you said that they were busy with things on the other side of the canal, the rumors had quietly spread on Haicheng's side.

Qi Moxiao and Yun learned month by month that there have been many accidents on this side of the canal since the start of construction, which has invisibly led to the slow progress of the project, which is also one of the reasons why the workers in this place are anxious.

Yun Zhuyue said: "Because the excavation direction on this side of the canal is wrong, so it led to these accidents, but fortunately, we came in time and the soil erosion was not too serious, and there was still a chance to save it." ”

Qi Moxiao said: "I have already sent people back to the imperial court to transfer people over, but it will take a certain amount of time for them to come over, and it is best to stop work first in this period of time, there will be more accidents inside." ”

"It's just two dead this time, and it's unknown what will happen next time."

Yun Zhuyue hesitated: "But if the construction is stopped, the progress of the project on this side of the canal will slow down, and when the South China Sea is eyeing the tiger, our situation will become more difficult, so let's think about this matter again." ”

The two of them walked back as they spoke, not knowing how excessive the rumors were outside.

Later, it was this rumor that Green Star heard when he went out to buy something, and after he came back, he hurriedly told Yun Zhuyue.

Yun Zhuyue was a little angry after listening to it: "Who is spreading rumors here?" ”

You must know that ordinary people believe in these things the most, if it really makes him think that it is the new emperor who causes the canal to be lost one after another, this matter will most likely be transmitted back to the side of the capital.

Originally, the remnants of the three princes had not had time to be completely cleared, and if it was rumored that the new emperor was in place at this time, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Green Star didn't know what was going on: "I don't know how the rumors came out, anyway, the people outside have spread the word, and some people even say that since the new emperor succeeded to the throne, not only on this side of the canal, but also in other places There have been all kinds of natural and man-made disasters." ”

Yun Zhuyue was a little funny, and said mockingly: "These people really listen to the wind and rain." ”

After finishing speaking, he sighed a little helplessly, these people are just ordinary people, they don't understand anything, and it is easy to believe after listening to the rumors.

It's useless to blame them, if you want to blame the person who spread the rumors.

After Qi Moxiao walked in from outside and learned about this matter, he comforted Yun Zhuyue: "You don't have to be too anxious, in my opinion, you don't have to worry about this rumor at all, we are not afraid of the shadow crooked, and after the matter on this side of the canal is resolved, of course, this message will be self-defeating." ”

Yun Zhuyue smiled bitterly and said, "But don't you think this rumor is hard to hear?" You've done it for the sake of the people, and they not only don't believe you, but they even speak ill of you behind your back. ”

"The remnants of the Three Princes haven't had time to completely eradicate it, if this matter is known to them, it is equivalent to giving them a good opportunity, and if they join forces against you again, then your situation is very dangerous!"

Yun Zhuyue couldn't rest assured, always worried that Qi Moxiao's location would be threatened.

"Do you care about the position of the queen?" Qi Moxiao didn't answer Yun Zhuyue's words, but suddenly asked.

Yun Zhuyue's heart suddenly chuckled, and she didn't understand what the reason for him asked this, but she thought about this question carefully, and then shook her head: "What I care about is not the position of the queen, what I care about is you, what identity you are then I am what identity, the two of us are both prosperous and lossy, no matter what your identity is, as long as I can be with you, I don't care." ”

"But since you have inherited the throne, you must not be able to give up this position to others, otherwise you will not become the laughing stock of everyone? It shouldn't be that he wants to give up the throne to the third prince to get the rest of the party, right? ”

Yun Zhuyue's tone was full of worry, afraid that Qi Moxiao would be disheartened and do something impulsive.

Qi Moxiao smiled faintly, and then said, "Do you have the impression that I have done such a stupid thing?" I just think that those who are clear are self-purifying, and there are some things that you don't need to explain, and sometimes explaining too much is equivalent to smearing more and more black, and it won't play any role. ”

"How could you be foolish enough to give up the throne? If I take the throne, do you think the remnants of the Three Princes may leave us with a little way to live? Now that we've embarked on this path, I can only go one way to the end! ”

"Otherwise, the remnants of the three princes will not feel sorry for us, let alone leave any hidden dangers for themselves, they must be eager to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and even our daughter will not be spared when the time comes, if the three princes are still alive, they may miss the old love, but if the three princes die, they may not take care of all this."

Yun Zhuyue didn't know what to say, so he just smiled faintly.

Qi Moxiao knew that what he had just said reminded Yun Zhuyue of the Three Princes, in fact, the death of the Third Prince still had some feelings for Yun Zhuyue, especially the last act that the Third Prince did before he died.

It is estimated that it is enough for Yun to remember him for the rest of his life, month by month.

He hugged her into his arms and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, don't worry about the rumors outside, let's solve the matter on the other side of the canal first, if we don't change direction as soon as possible, there will definitely be more accidents, and some of them will say it at that time." ”

Yun Zhuyue nodded, and did not continue this topic, Qi Moxiao can be so confident, does she have any reason to continue to worry here? Just leave it to him.
