Chapter 28 Drought control
"Don't worry, I will definitely deal with the drought here as soon as possible, and I will definitely not let them suffer again."
This sentence is not only Xia Luochen's promise to the people on the eastern border, but now it has also become a promise to Bai Youan.
"Uh-huh, An An believes."
Bai You'an's smile was extraordinarily sweet, and her immature eyebrows were full of trust.
That night, Bai You'an seemed to have a dream, in which it rained, the people cheered, and the crops were excellent.
In her sleep, she couldn't help but giggle.
Waking up in a trance, she rubbed her eyes in confusion, showing disappointment, after all, it was just a dream.
Just when Bai Youan was disappointed, he heard the sound of raindrops outside in a trance.
didn't even care about wearing shoes, Bai Youan went to open the door barefoot.
It's rain! Heavy rain!
The wind swept the leaves, as if he was excited about the rain, and even Bai Youan was infected by such an atmosphere and couldn't help but want to go out and get drenched in the rain.
However, when Bai Youan had just taken a small step, he was fished over from behind.
"I ran out without shoes, hurry back to the house, what should I do if I catch a cold?"
No matter how Bai You'an babbled and resisted, Xia Luochen ignored it. Directly clamped her in the crook of his arm and brought her back to the room.
"An An, happy."
Even if he was thrown on the bed, the little guy still clapped his hands with a smile on his face.
Xia Luochen's face was a little hesitant, and he didn't know whether he should tell Bai Youan the truth.
"What's wrong?"
But as smart as Bai You'an, how could he not see the change in the expression on Xia Luochen's face?
Tilting his little head, he asked Xia Luochen suspiciously.
"The rain didn't solve the drought problem, it made the crops even more wilted."
Knowing that this matter could not be concealed from Bai Youan, Xia Luochen hesitated for a moment and said it.
The black grape-like eyes couldn't help but widen, as if they were in disbelief.
In fact, Xia Luochen couldn't figure out what the reason was, it was raining today, and he deliberately went out early in the morning to check the crops, but the crops were not, and they were just growing vigorously, and they were gradually withering.
This is something that Charlotchen has never seen before.
After listening carefully to Xia Luochen's description of the crops, Bai Youan still felt that it was not enough.
"An An, take a look."
Since rain does not allow crops to grow vigorously, it means that water scarcity is not the cause of poor crops.
Bai Youan wanted to see it for himself.
"Okay, but it's raining heavily outside right now, I'll take you out when the rain stops."
According to Bai You'an's stubborn temper, he must go, so Xia Luochen couldn't persuade him if he knew it.
The two of them waited quietly here for the rain to stop, and they were very worried about it.
"Land."
Suddenly, Bai Youan opened his mouth to say this, and Xia Luochen's face was dazed.
"Land, no, good."
There is no need to go this time, Bai Youan can also figure it out.
Crops depend on nothing more than the right time, place and people, such as today's people and people, the only thing that can make sense is the reason for the land.
Hearing this, Xia Luochen's face was solemn, the two of them had been focusing on drought before, but now it seemed that they were in the wrong direction.
"Okay, I see, don't go anywhere in your room, wait for me to come back."
Bai Youan nodded obediently.
Since it is a land reason, it must be inseparable from the local government.
Xia Luochen immediately checked from the local government.
"Third Highness, thank you, but we really don't have anything to check."
Just like that, with a team of people, he went to search in the palace of Wang County, which made him panic and knelt trembling in front of Xia Luochen.
"There's nothing to check, can't I find out if I look it up? What are you panicking about? ”
When the cold tone came, Wang Xian Ling shut up immediately, not daring to say more.
Such a look of three hundred taels of silver in this place made Xia Luochen disgusted.
"Third Highness, we found this in his room."
At this time, a subordinate held a brocade box in his hand and brought it to Xia Luochen, and when he saw the box, Wang Xianling panicked.
When I unfolded it, it turned out that it was all the title deeds of fertile land, many of which were scavenged from the hands of the peasants, and all of them were under the name of Wang County's order.
"Nothing to check out?"
A cold voice came from above, and Wang Xianling trembled, and kept kowtowing to Xia Luochen.
"The villain's fault, the villain's fault, is the villain's momentary ghost, please send mercy to the three highnesses and spare the villain."
"I have spared you, who has spared them?"
Thinking of those displaced and starving people, Xia Luochen had nowhere to vent his anger.
At this moment, Lou Yue walked in.
"Your Royal Highness, the little one has been found out, Wang Xian Ling always secretly led people to destroy the people's crops, and secretly sprinkled excessive pesticides on the land, resulting in a bad harvest of crops, so that others can only rent his land, otherwise, they can only harvest nothing."
Followed by a few men who were tied up by five flowers, they were the troublemakers found by Lou Yue.
"The Third Highness spares his life, the Third Highness spares his life, all of them are ordered by the Wang County Order, we are really innocent."
Several people were covered in scars, and their faces turned pale with fright, and it seemed that Lou Yue had already used torture.
As soon as he saw Xia Luochen, he quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy, putting all the fault on Wang Xianling's head.
"You ......"
will also say a complete sentence, Wang Xianling felt a sharp gaze staring at him breathlessly.
"Now what else do you have to say, Wang Xianling."
At this time, Xia Luochen looked at Wang Xianling's eyes as if he was looking at a dead man.
His face was pale and he had nothing to say, so he could only prostrate himself on the spot.
The thin lips opened slightly, and the voice of hell rang out.
"Anyone involved will be put in prison and beheaded after the autumn."
Hearing Xia Luochen's fall, Wang Xianling sat on the ground dejectedly, trembling his lips, and didn't say a word.
Not only that, Xia Luochen also reported the matter to the emperor, and these corrupt officials must be severely rectified.
After receiving Xia Luochen's fast horse handbook, the emperor praised Xia Luochen greatly, but at the same time, he also felt that there was something wrong with this matter.
It's just a local official, how can he have so much power, and how can he hide it so cleanly?
So looking for clues, the emperor continued to send people to investigate, and the result was the same as he thought.
It was the prince who assisted from it!
After learning of this, the emperor couldn't tolerate it for a moment, and was furious, and directly let the prince be confined.
After dealing with these things, Xia Luochen informed Bai Youan of the matter as soon as possible.
"Okay, okay."
Hearing that the bad guys were all punished, Bai You'an's eyes narrowed with a smile, and his eyebrows were crooked.
"It's still thanks to you, who are as careful as a hair, that we can catch the murderer so quickly."
As he spoke, a faint smile tugged at the corner of Xia Luochen's mouth.
