Hearing Song Wanyue's words, Meng Cheng was stunned in disbelief.

"Xu Ling'er grew up in Xu's family? ……”

Song Wanyue told him about the Xu family concisely, of course, she didn't say that Xu Ling'er and the Huo family were planning Song Si.

Even so, after hearing this, Meng Cheng staggered back, leaned against the pillar, and didn't speak for a long time.

He was attracted to Xu Ling'er at the first sight. Because of business, he has seen a lot of women, and his family has introduced him to many family affairs, but there has never been a woman like Xu Ling'er, whose words and demeanors reveal everyone's beautiful norms. He thought that all the women in the capital were like this, but he never thought that Xu Ling'er would be the one who was kicked out by the Xu family.

Seeing that she looked deeply shocked, Song Wanyue shook her head. The reason why she told him this was to make him mentally prepared, not to let him be shocked.

"Fundamentally, she is innocent, what Huo Shi and Wen Zhong did can't implicate her, and she hasn't done anything to be sorry for the Xu family. I'm just telling you because I thought she would object when you mentioned it to your uncle and grandfather, so that you could prepare in advance. ”

Meng Cheng opened his mouth a few times and didn't speak.

Aunt Wan'er was still young when she was lost, but he knew how sad his grandfather was, and he sent a lot of people to help find him. Although all this has nothing to do with Xu Ling'er, she is the granddaughter of the Huo family and Wen Zhong's niece after all. I like her, but I'm sorry for Aunt Wan'er.

"What do you think?"

Song Wan patted him on the shoulder, "Judging from Xu Ling'er personally, she is still good, whether it is Uncle Li An, since you like it, you will find a way to fight for it." ”

Meng Cheng shook his head slowly, and his voice was dumb, "No, no need." ”

If it were something else, he would fight for it, but this thing would not work, his grandfather would not agree, and he would not be able to pass his own level.

Song Wanyue,......

She seemed to have done something wrong, and was about to persuade her, but the janitor hurriedly ran in, saw them, and stopped, "Miss Song, the housekeeper from the prefect's mansion has come over and said that he wants to invite you, the master, and Li An to come over." ”

Invite the three of them over, this is to explore the canal?

Song Wanyue swallowed the words she wanted to persuade and nodded, "You go to report to your uncle and grandfather, and I'll go find Uncle Li." ”

The janitor flew away, and Song Wanyue patted Meng Cheng's shoulder again and returned to the old gentleman's courtyard.

The old gentleman and Li An had finished playing a game of chess, and Li An lost very badly, but he didn't care, and took the chess pieces back to the chess box one by one with a smile, "Your chess skills have improved again, I used to be able to play fifty pieces, but now I lose thirty pieces." ”

"It's all practiced by Yue'er's girl, she is good at chess and often wins me."

"It was my great-grandfather who let me."

Song Wanyue lifted the curtain and went into the house, answered with a smile, and saw that the two of them had finished getting down, and said, "The prefect sent a housekeeper to invite us over, it should have sent someone to explore the canal, maybe it was to ask Uncle Li if he had any good suggestions." ”

"This matter cannot be delayed, you go quickly, and come back in the evening to accompany me."

The old gentleman said.

Li An got up, saluted the old gentleman, and then came out with Song Wanyue, and after walking out of the courtyard gate, Meng Yang also happened to come over, and the three of them left the house.

The housekeeper of the prefect's mansion was waiting at the door, and when he saw a few people coming out, his attitude was very respectful, "Your Excellency is waiting for the three of you at the yamen." ”

The three of them got into the carriage separately, followed her to the yamen, and went to the back yamen unimpeded.

In addition to the prefect, there were several people standing in the house, and their trousers were more or less stained with mud, and when they saw the three of them enter, their eyes immediately fell on them.

The prefect's attitude was also much kinder, "The three of you sit down quickly and serve tea." ”

The three of them sat down, and the next person served tea.

The prefect pointed to the few people who were standing, "After hearing what you said, the official sent them to check, and there are indeed many places where the canal is not dredged." I asked the butler to invite you over to ask you if you have any good advice? ”

He said this with a look at Ang Lee, obviously asking him.

The few people standing also followed his gaze.

In recent years, the wind and rain in Jinling have been smooth, and when they go to inspect the canals, they all look at them at random, if it weren't for the adults who suddenly let them check today, they don't know that the waterways outside Jinling City are blocked so much.

was stared at by several people, and Li An was not timid, "Do you have drawings of all the waterways?" Can you show me? ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

One person hurriedly handed over the drawings he was holding, Li An took it, removed the teacup, spread it on the table, and asked a few people standing, "Can you point out where there is a blockage?" ”

Several people glanced at each other, and then quietly looked at the prefect. There are too many blocked places, and some places have even collapsed, and they didn't dare to tell the adults when they came back, if they say it now, will they be sent down by the adults?

"I need to know the specific situation so that I know how to deal with it."

One of them wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, stepped forward, and his hand almost turned half a circle on the drawing, "This, all of these are blocked." ”

Li An looked at him in amazement.

The prefect's face was dark, and these people even dared to hide it from him.

"If that's what you say, the waterways must be rebuilt."

"Rebuild?"

The others couldn't help but exclaim, "Do you know how many canals there are outside Jinling City?" If it is renewed, how much financial and material resources will it cost? ”

"No matter how much financial and material resources are spent, it is better than a flood, and once there is a flood, the consequences are unimaginable."

After speaking, Li An looked at the prefect, "My lord, you have to make a decision on this matter as soon as possible, the continuous heavy rain a few days ago, a lot of rain has poured into the farmland, if there is another heavy rain, I am afraid that the crops will not be saved." It's just May, and it's even worse if it rains a lot in June. ”

The prefect's face became solemn.

The people all said that the prefect of Jinling was a soil emperor, and he agreed with this, because the emperor was far away, and no one restrained him. But once there is a flood here, even if it is far away, the emperor will reach out, and he, the emperor of the soil, may be dismissed by the real emperor and beheaded.

He didn't want to end up like that.

Thinking of this, he spoke more politely, "I bother you to estimate how much manpower and material resources are needed, and I will prepare immediately." ”

After hearing this, Li An got up without hesitation, "I'll go with them for a field trip and report to the adults tomorrow." ”

"Thank you."

The prefect also arched his hand.

The few people who were standing saw that the prefect was like this to Li An, and they were also a little respectful.

"You guys take it with you."

Several people responded and left with Ang Lee.

After they left, the prefect looked at Meng Yang, "Master Meng also heard just now, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to dredge these canals. The government alone can't do these things, and I would like to ask Master Meng to be the leader and take the lead in donating money to help us build the canal. ”
