Chapter 220: The Old Man in Prison

The pilgrimage will disperse...

After the courtiers left the Jinluan Palace, they all congratulated Xu Boqing, such as "Congratulations to Lord Xu, congratulations to Lord Xu", "Lord Xu is really a capable minister to rule the world", "Pillar of the country of Lord Xu" and so on...

and the courtiers were dispersed.

Seeing that there was no one else, Song Mingde hurriedly leaned over and reminded softly, "Lord Xu, it's not easy to do this errand well."

"It's okay..."

Xu Boqing shook his head, and then said in a mocking tone: "I didn't expect that it has only been two years since the establishment of this West Factory, and it has reached the point where such people hate ghosts..."

"Uh-hehe-hehe-hehe~"

Song Mingde laughed a few times when he heard this, and said, "Their buttocks are not clean, and they are afraid that the West Factory will find out something."

"Thank you, Commander Song, for reminding me..."

Xu Boqing arched his hand and returned to the West Factory Supervisor...

Although Emperor Yonghe's disaster relief order had been issued, the household department still needed time to discuss the specific requisition strategy, so he was not in a hurry to leave...

Sent someone to find the files and files about Fushan Weir, Yingtianfu, and Daimyo's Mansion to roughly flip through them, during which Liu Yuan led people to send the four-clawed dragon robe given by Emperor Yonghe...

After Liu Yuan left, the four-clawed dragon robe that represented "I am here" was casually stuffed under his butt as a cushion...

According to the historical records of Daliang, the Fushan weir was built by the Taizu of Daliang after the establishment of the dynasty...

In order to build the Fushan weir, it is rumored that several mountains were hollowed out, more than 300,000 people were mobilized before and after, and the amount of money invested was incalculable, and it took decades to succeed.

It can even be said to be one of the lifeblood of the girder...

Now, this lifeline suddenly burst the embankment and the flood is rushing, is it also related to the luck of the disappearance of the beam?

Xu Boqing tapped the handrail with a frown...

Natural disasters...

Post-disaster reconstruction takes a lot of time and energy, and it is impossible to do it yourself, so you have to choose a deputy who is both capable, prestigious, and dedicated to serving the people.

The hidden danger of man-made disasters in Gangneung Mansion also has some cause and effect with himself, and at that time, he only cared about killing the toad essence, not considering the impact of the toad essence after his death...

It's your own fault...

The people at the bottom are ignorant, and even sacrifice their children to the god of the river, but it doesn't matter whether the god of the river is demonized or not.

Now the resentment of the people in Gangneung Mansion is boiling, if it is not handled well, or if it is bewitched by people with intentions, it is impossible to say that the Jiangnan rebellion has just been suppressed, and there will be another rebellion in Gangneung Mansion.

However, judging from the "piety" of the people in Gangneung Province to the river god, it is only necessary to reshape a new river god and manifest some "miracles" to appease the people, and this matter can be eliminated and invisible!

And the new Jiang Shen, isn't our good disciple Su Su the perfect candidate?

The water tribe, the body of the dragon, the righteous daughter of the true dragon, has fused the water god talisman, but has not yet chosen the water area to establish a mansion, who else is more suitable than her to be the god of the Qianling River?

This man-made disaster brewing in Gangneung Mansion may not be a chance for her, a great opportunity to attract believers!!

Wonderful~

Thinking of this, Xu Boqing couldn't help but smile a little.

The method of dealing with "man-made disasters" in natural and man-made disasters has been roughly formed in his mind, so he only needs to find a deputy who is capable of dealing with "natural disasters......

He sifted through the candidates in his mind, and then as if he had thought of something, he stood up and went to the prison...

There are many talents in prison~

When he arrived at the prison, he looked at the "prison" plaque he had made himself, and he couldn't help but lose his mind, I don't know if it was an illusion, but the portrait painted on the plaque was a little more vivid than before.

It's like coming to life, it's very smart...

When Prison Secretary Hu heard the news, he rushed to see Governor Xu standing in front of the door, and hurriedly greeted him and bowed and saluted, "I have seen the Governor of Hu."

"No need to be polite..."

Xu Boqing waved his hand and asked with a smile, "In the past six months, what strange things have happened in the prison?"

"Blessed Governor Lord."

Hu Prison Si replied with a smile: "Eat well and sleep well

Xiang, those prisoners are put in prison as long as they are shackled, and they can't turn over even if they have great means."

"Hehehehehe, that's good."

Xu Boqing smiled and stepped into the gate of the prison.

Seeing this, Prison Secretary Hu also followed behind him, and asked cautiously, "The Overseer has come to the Heavenly Prison this time, but he is looking for someone to practice?"

"That's not it, I'm looking for someone..."

"Who?"

"Gu Jingyi..."

"Gu ......"

Hearing this, Prison Secretary Hu was breathless, and after glancing around, he cautiously asked, "The Overseer is looking for Gu Xiang?"

"Not bad..."

Xu Boqing bowed slightly, and asked meaningfully, "How is Gu Jingyi in this prison?"

"Eat and drink well..."

Hu Prison Si explained: "After Gu Xiang was imprisoned, he didn't eat or drink at first, and he didn't let his protégé and old officials visit him, and he was bent on dying Mingzhi, but then he got sick and almost died, and after he was rescued, he extinguished his mind of dying Mingzhi."

"It's a shame that he died in prison..."

Xu Boqing shook his head and said, "Take me to see."

"Yes..."

Prison Secretary Hu led the way, and seeing that the Overseer seemed to be quite concerned about Gu Xiang's matter, he cautiously asked, "I take the liberty of asking, what is the matter with the Overseer looking for Gu Xiang?"

"It's not a big deal."

Xu Boqing was idle and bored, so he roughly recounted the incident of the Fushan weir bursting, the matters discussed at the court meeting, and his idea of finding a hand.

"Shhhh

Hearing this, Prison Secretary Hu couldn't help but let out a cool breath from between his teeth, and complimented his Adam's apple rolling up and down: "The Overseer has taken on this important task for the people's livelihood, the Great Liang is very fortunate, Your Majesty is very fortunate, and the people are very fortunate!"

"Hehehe..."

Xu Boqing shook his head with a smile, and said with a teasing tone: "Your flattering words are much better than those courtiers~"

His voice paused, as if he had thought of something, and Zhengse asked, "According to the opinion of the Hu Prison Division, is it feasible for me to find Gu Jingyi as my deputy for disaster relief?"

"This ......"

Prison Secretary Hu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "I don't dare to talk about national affairs."

"Outside, aren't you?"

Xu Boqing glanced at him dissatisfiedly and said, "If there is no one else, you should give me advice."

A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, and a fool will also have a thousand thoughts, not to mention that he clearly knows that he is a little clever at most, and he is not a great wisdom...

In the same matter, if others can put forward better suggestions or opinions on the matter, he will accept it with an open mind.

"Yes..."

Hearing this, Hu Prison Si breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Gu Xiang's life is well-governed, and his protégés and former officials are all over the government and the opposition.

Although Gu Xiang has now been imprisoned, there are not a few of his protégés who come to visit the prison, not to mention the others, just this connection is also a great wealth."

He paused, glanced around, and said softly, "With Gu Xiang's character, ability, prestige, and connections, he shouldn't spend time in the heavenly prison, if the overseer can take him out, it will definitely be a great help!"

"Coincidentally, isn't it..."

Xu Boqing raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, and smiled meaningfully, "I think so too."

The two looked at each other and smiled...

Stay in a private room in the prison prison.

Prison Secretary Hu asked his jailers to open the door.

And Xu Boqing also saw Gu Jingyi in the cell lying on the bed and falling asleep, with unfinished dishes and two pots of wine on the tables and chairs next to him.

"It's not bad..."

Xu was disturbed by the movement of unlocking, Gu Jingyi woke up in a daze, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and saw that Hu Prison Si was coming with a young man, and thought it was a student who came to visit...

But the young man looked quite familiar, but he thought about his own

Protégés, none of them seem to be able to match...

"After a few years, the old gentleman will come unharmed?"

Xu Boqing smiled and greeted, then waved his hand, and the Hu Prison Division and the jailer behind him bowed down and retreated in understanding.

「……」

Gu Jingyi's brows tightened when he heard this, he could now be sure that the young man in front of him was not his protégé, and listening to his tone, he had obviously seen it...

I couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I'm old, I'm really old, I've been in this prison for more than a year, and everyone is confused..."

"People are not confused..."

Xu Boqing smiled and said jokingly, "I guess the old gentleman should have forgotten who I am."

「……」

Gu Jingyi nodded a little embarrassed...

"Three years ago, I had a relationship with the old gentleman, and I got some favors, and it's normal for the old gentleman not to remember."

Xu Boqing pondered for a while, and seeing that he hadn't remembered who he was, he reminded with a smile: "On the street side of Hongyang City, the old gentleman once asked me to tell my fortune, and gave me ten taels of silver hexagram gold afterwards."

「……」

Gu Jingyi's pupils shrank when he heard this, as if he had thought of something, and muttered with a look of surprise: "When the time comes, heaven and earth are all working together, is it not free to transport heroes?"

"And one more..."

Xu Boqing bowed slightly, and added with a smile: "Ten years of luck Dao Dragon trapped in the well, once the momentum entered the clouds..."

"It's you!!"
