Sheng Hong couldn't stay in the palace anymore and moved to Dingchun Garden.

The civil and military officials have reverted to the days when they went to court once every three days, and if there is nothing important to start, then they can not go to Dingchun Garden to go to court for many days, and go to their respective yamen on time every day.

Even Li Qiao, Sheng Hong didn't have any more energy to call him, Sheng Hong asked him to go to Dingchun Garden once every two days, and he didn't have to report every day.

Recently, there is only one major event in Zhehai Province, which is sad but easy to arrange.

The governor of Zhehai Province and the prefects and counties of the affected prefectures and counties all actively provided disaster relief, so as not to touch Sheng Hong's moldy head and be stripped of his official position.

On the imperial court's side, in addition to the five million catties of grain donated by Li Qiao, Sheng Hong also transferred grain from neighboring Jiangshu Province and Dongguang Province, and other disaster relief materials such as keel waterwheels, seeds, building materials, and so on were also arranged.

If you can raise donations, Sheng Hong raised all the money - after tasting the sweetness of raising 1.5 million taels for the Yun Province earthquake + Tuntian last time, he fell in love with the fundraising activity.

Come to think of it, although the surname of this Dasheng country is Sheng, if there are no soldiers to guard the frontier, and there is no emperor who has food and clothing, will there be a stable life for hundreds of officials, nobles and wealthy merchants?

It has always been the prosperity of the people and the suffering of the people, but the officials, nobles and wealthy merchants have always been happy, in order to enjoy the happiness for a long time, then take out some silver.

However, he did not oblige people to donate money and materials, and this matter was very voluntary.

If he didn't force it, the people donated less, and the Manchu Dynasty donated a hundred taels of civil and military people, and only a few taels of less, plus the people, and finally collected 100,000 taels of silver and a million catties of grain.

This little money and food was far from enough to provide for the disaster, so he appropriated it from the treasury.

Therefore, the typhoon in Zhehai Province has been resolved.

As for drought, irrigated crops have been done this way for thousands of years.

Therefore, there has really been no major event in the DPRK and China recently, and Li Qiao can take a rest.

Of course, this break is not a holiday.

Should I go to work or go to work?

The weather is dry, Li Qiao is the head of the household department, and the attendance law restricts him except for the painting every morning.

He doesn't have to stay in the household all day.

In dry weather, he rode around the city every day to watch farmers irrigate their fields.

The large and small ditches and ponds outside Shengjing City are used by farmers every day, and the water level has dropped a lot.

He quietly threw a palm-sized balloon of water into it.

Don't look at this water balloon as small, but each water polo is one-twentieth of West Lake.

At level eight, he was able to compress more water, and he'd stockpiled a lot of these balls over the course of the past year.

However, he threw few water balloons, and the water mark did not rise significantly, so it did not arouse any suspicion.

Even if someone thinks it's strange, they will only think about God's miracles.

Dasheng did not have the habit of building reservoirs, and there were no reservoirs to control the amount of water in these ditches and ponds, and people could not think of a second possibility except for miracles.

In general, irrigation in the Shengjing area is not worrying, but some areas in Jibei Province have reduced wheat production due to a drought that has lasted for half a year.

Now is the time for the autumn grain to thrive, and if there is a lack of irrigation, the autumn grain production will also have to be reduced.

On this day, Li Qiao finished processing the excerpts in Dingchun Garden, which happened to be noon.

The weather is hot, it is very hard to rush back at this time, Sheng Hong left him for lunch, and during the chat, he talked about his worries about the autumn grain, Sheng Hong couldn't help but sigh: "You should be the grain supervisor." ”

Li Aiqing cares more about food than he is the emperor.

"Uh...... Wechen is willing to take over the post of grain governor, and it just so happens that Wechen wants to see the four big rivers dug by craftsmen with his own eyes, or how many days will Wechen take a few days off to go to Jibei Province to have a look? ”

Li Qiao looked at Sheng Hong with a pure face, and her tone was a little apprehensive.

The first time he asked for leave, Sheng Hong shouldn't give him a dismissal, right?

He didn't ask for much, just give him a week.

He rode a fast horse to see one of the great rivers he had dug up, and whether there was a major drought in the province where the river was located was left to fate.

As a courtier, he really couldn't find more reasons to go to Jibei Province, and he could only do so for this great drought.

Li Qiao's words came a little suddenly, and Sheng Hong couldn't help but put down the chopsticks in his hand: "Do you want to go to Jibei Province?" ”

"Wechen wants to take a look at the four big rivers, so much silver has been scattered, Wechen wants to see the real thing. Although he sent people from the royal logistics to check it before, Weichen still wanted to see it with his own eyes. ”

Li Qian continued to maintain the innocence on her face and explained.

"That's ......"

Sheng Hong suddenly, thinking of his previous expectations for the Grand Canal, he thought for a moment and nodded: "You have really worked hard in the past few years, so I will give you a month's leave, and you can go to Jibei Province for a walk." You don't have to hold the post of grain overseer, you are not missing. ”

"Huh?"

Li Qiao's eyes opened in an instant, a month?

Sheng Hong was amused by his expression: "A month is still less, other officials took early holidays during the Chinese New Year before, but you are busy with me until the twenty-sixth and seventh of the lunar month, and I am now letting you rest for a month, in fact, it is still a loss to you." ”

"But if you can work harder, you can only rest for a month."

Li Aiqing can do the work of seven people alone, and he can't do without Li Aiqing.

“…… Thank you, Holy Lord! However, it is the honor of Weichen to be able to share the worries of the saint, during the time when Weichen is not there, you must not overwork, your dragon body is important. ”

After listening to Sheng Hong's explanation, Li Qiao was moved in her heart, and she was busy caring about Sheng Hong's body.

"Li Aiqing rest assured, I cherish my life very much, and you are also concerned about all matters in the DPRK and China, it is rare to take a month off and have a good time."

"However, regardless of whether you encounter anything new, report to me every three days. Bring more people. ”

Sheng Hong admonished.

Although there are very few robbers in Dasheng at present, I am not afraid of 10,000 just in case.

"Thank you for your care, Wechen will definitely bring his husband and children when he goes out this time, and Wechen will definitely hire more bodyguards."

Hearing Li Qiao's words, Sheng Hong was relieved, if he brought his husband and children, then Li Aiqing would never be reckless.

After Li Qiao had lunch, he returned to the city from Dingchun Garden, first went to the household department to hang around, and when he got off work, he rode home on a horse.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the martial arts class of the three little ones was not over.

After getting acquainted with Sheng Shiyu, the three little guys changed the location of the martial arts class to the gate of the Li family, so that they and Sheng Shiyu were only separated by a wall, and they could communicate by roaring.

If you can't get enough of yelling, you can also put a ladder on the wall and climb the wall to communicate.

When Li Qiao came back, the three little guys were practicing boxing with the boxer, they were striding horses, accompanied by the sound of "ho" in the small mouth of the fist, which looked full of momentum.

Li Qian dismounted, stood by and watched for a few minutes, and then entered the house.

Tao Zhu is playing with the children with Liu Ge'er, Zheng Qianqian, Li Xia, and Fan Yuanyuan in the West Cross Courtyard.

In April, Fan Yuanyuan and Li Yu'an both gave birth successfully, Fan Yuanyuan gave birth to a little girl, plus Li Xia's second son Zhao Cong, Zheng Qianqian's twins Li Hui Liming and Li Erbao orange brother, a group of people stayed under the persimmon tree, playing swings and lying hammocks.

Zhao Cong and Li Hui Liming are more than two years old, and the three little ones are interested in walking, and they are not afraid of the hot weather, so they push the walker and walk around under the persimmon tree.

Li Qiao entered the courtyard, and when he saw this scene at a glance, the words "Ding Xingwang" suddenly flashed in his mind.

That's nice.

In his previous life, he was alone, and when he first crossed through this life, he was only Tao Zhu, and after twelve years, there were nine cubs in the family alone!

Big family!

He walked over with a smile, did not announce the big news of a holiday, and waited until the evening, Li Liang Wang Guihua and Li Shu Li Dashan and others came back, and he informed everyone of this great joy.

The news came suddenly, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

But after being stunned, I was happy, and I couldn't stop marveling.

They have seen Li Qiao's hard work in the past few years, and it is finally time to take a breath.

When he heard that he was going to Jibei Province to inspect his four big rivers and fields, Li Xiaorui, Li Changfeng, and Li Yunfan suddenly became energetic, surrounded him in the middle, and shouted that they were going too.

A month is a long time! They are reluctant to daddy daddy / uncle uncle bamboo uncle!

And they've grown so big that they haven't left Shengjing yet.

"On such a hot day, the carriage is sunburned like a steamer, you must not be able to stand it."

Tao Zhu wanted them to dispel their thoughts, Li Qiao was going to do business, not to play.

"You can use saltpeter to make ice to cool off, or you can put branches and leaves on the roof of the carriage to shade the sun, we can stand it!"

Li Xiaorui crossed his hands on his waist and retorted crisply.

"That is, bring saltpeter, and you don't have to worry about the heat along the way." Li Changfeng also focused on his little head.

Tao Zhu: "......"

Li Qiao was happy, raised his finger and flicked their heads: "Okay, okay, you can go if you want, but don't complain about it when the time comes, if you complain, I won't take you when I go out in the future." ”

"Wow!"

"I won't complain!"

"Thank you, Daddy!"

The three little guys were overjoyed, jumping and screaming, and their excited little faces were red, they were finally going out of Shengjing!

Tao Zhu listened to their laughter, and looked at Li Qiao a little helplessly, there are three little guys here, how to do business?

However, if he really wants to be separated from the three little ones for a month, then he is also reluctant.

That's it, just bring the three little burdens.

There are many children in the family, and they have to be busy with things in the shop, so in the end, only Li Liang followed their husband and husband to set off.

The next day, when Li Qiao Taozhu was packing his luggage, the three little guys ran to the front of the big prince's mansion to say goodbye to the little emperor's grandson, they were going out to play for a month, of course, this kind of big thing should be told to good friends.

After listening to their words, Sheng Shiyu was so envious that he almost found his father and wanted to ask for leave to go out.

However, he clenched his palms with his small hands and resisted the urge.

For a month, his father would never allow it.

He could only tell his three younger brothers with a forced smile that if there was anything interesting along the way, he must tell him when he returned to Beijing.

"Don't worry! We will keep a diary to record what we have seen and heard along the way, and when we return to Beijing, I will show you my diary! ”

Li Yunfan clapped his heart with his small hand and promised with a grin.

Before, when his brother Ershan went to Beihu Province to get married, he deliberately wrote a diary.
