Chapter Ninety-Five: Crazy Will
"Weichen thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for his grace, and it will be difficult to repay His Royal Highness the Prince's great kindness!"
Kong Mengzhi was moved by Chu Mo's words, and his five bodies fell to the ground, and suddenly, his loyalty to Chu Mo increased like a rocket.
In the evening, Chu Mo and Kong Mengzhi had a hot pot together, Kong Mengzhi was also full of praise for him, and after eating and drinking, he said goodbye and went home.
The time of stopping and calm is always very short, and soon, it will be time for Chu Mo and Yu Wen Chenghua to make a bet, and today's early dynasty, what the result will be, will be known.
"Announce the ministers to enter the palace!"
Hong Sifeng, who had a sharp voice, shouted loudly.
All the ministers walked into the main hall.
"Today, the bet between the right minister and the prince is about to be fulfilled, how do I think, today, I have to watch his jokes again!"
"Yes, yes, even if the prince can write a few poems, I don't believe it, he can still have the ability to call for wind and rain, and he can solve the drought in Qingling and Lingzhou!"
As soon as he went to the court, all the ministers whispered, waiting to see Chu Mo's jokes.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, after a few days, I don't know what the effect of your waterwheel irrigation method is?"
Seeing this situation, Yuwen Chenghua took the lead in opening his mouth and asked nervously.
"Now, the arid fields have been irrigated, and crops with short maturity cycles and drought tolerance have been planted, coupled with the opening of the state capital to release grain, the lives of the people in the disaster area have entered the right track!"
Chu Mo was confident and said indifferently.
"Oh, I wonder if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has any evidence to prove that what he said is true?"
Yuwen Chenghua was not moved in the slightest, and asked indifferently.
"Right Minister, this matter is handled by Wechen, and Wechen can testify for His Royal Highness the Prince!"
"The refugees in Qingling and Qingling have indeed returned to their residences and started to work and farm, coupled with the disaster relief silver taels prepared by the prince before, as well as the local granary reserves, the refugees in Qingling and Qingling have almost returned to normal life, at least. There will be no starvation and starvation everywhere!"
After Chu Mo's words yesterday, Kong Mengzhi already had a high loyalty to Chu Mo, and when he heard Yuwen Chenghua being so nonsense, he suddenly couldn't stay and opened his mouth to speak for Chu Mo.
"Oh?"
"In that case, then Master Kong, you can't be a witness, since you said that you handled this matter single-handedly, who knows if you will lie about the truth because you want to ask for merit and reward?"
Yuwen Chenghua was not in a hurry, and retorted again.
"You!"
"Right Minister, I am willing to lose the bet, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has won, this is a sure thing, don't think about telling right and wrong, confusing the public, in order to escape punishment!"
Kong Mengzhi is an upright and upright person, when it comes to playing tricks and fooling people, where can he compare to the treacherous and cunning Yuwen Chenghua? So, he said it straightforwardly.
"Bold!"
"What the prime minister says is just the truth, when will you tell the truth?"
"You are a small servant of the ministry, you dare to slander me, the right prime minister of the court, what crime should you be guilty of!"
Yuwen Chenghua was not in a hurry, and also bit back on Kong Meng.
"You!"
"You treacherous!"
Kong Meng's chest rose and fell violently, like pulling a bellows.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has the courage to play, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the crown prince, but in order to covet false fame, he is full of nonsense, uniting with Kong Mengzhi, a shameless traitor, to deceive His Majesty, as well as the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, such a virtuous person, damaging the royal face, can no longer hold the position of the prince, Weichen suggests, depose his position as the crown prince!"
At this time, an imperial history suddenly jumped out, played and advised, the eldest prince was on the side, sneering suspiciously, it was obvious that this imperial history was instructed by him.
"Prince, do you have anything to say about the statement of the right minister and the impeachment of this imperial historian?"
Chu Emperor Chu Yunxiu looked at Chu Mo with a calm look, knowing that he might have been prepared, and his heart was also a lot calmer, so he asked in a deep voice.
"Father, the son has nothing to say!"
Chu Mo opened his mouth lightly.
"See, Your Majesty, Chu Mo has already confessed his guilt!"
As soon as the previous imperial historian saw this situation, he was even more arrogant, and he didn't even call His Royal Highness the Prince, but even called Chu Mo's name.
"Hmm, Prince, do you agree with all these charges?"
When Emperor Chu heard that Chu Mo had nothing to say, he was also shocked in his heart, and hurriedly asked.
"No, father, this kind of thing, it's useless to talk about this kind of thing, a waterwheel that pumps water, and a bamboo pipe that drains water, are now erected on the Gyeonggi River, if my father and the ministers have this leisure and elegance, you can follow Gu and go to see it with your own eyes!"
Chu Mo spoke loudly again, full of energy, and his voice resounded throughout the court.
"Ladies and gentlemen, would you like to go and have a look with me?"
Chu Emperor Chu Yunxiu said in a cold voice, If any of you dare to say a word, I will cut your posture.
Previously, when Chu Mo had a problem with his head, Emperor Chu didn't reduce his favor by a single point, but now Chu Mo has not only returned to normal, but also is very smart and talented, these people are still worried about wanting to harm his precious son, if it weren't for the fact that these people are all loyal ministers of the imperial court, Chu Yunxiu really wants to cut a few on the spot to vent his anger.
"Wait and go!"
The ministers hurriedly agreed.
Just kidding, I didn't see that Emperor Chu's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, who would dare to say a word of refusal now?
"Come on, set up a car, no, no, no, don't be so troublesome, just prepare a carriage for me!"
Emperor Chu originally wanted to say that he would drive the Gyeonggi River, but after thinking about it, he only needed a carriage..................
So, in the imperial city, there was such a scene:
A bright yellow carriage pulled by six tall horses was running fast in front, and a group of ministers in official uniforms followed behind, running with their lives, and at the same time, they were blown by the dust raised by the carriage, and they were so embarrassed.
And Chu Mo is the crown prince, so naturally he can ride in the same carriage with Chu Emperor Chu Yunxiu.
Among the ministers, except for some very old ministers who did not bring it out, that is, the right minister Yu Wencheng has a high and powerful position, the status of the eldest prince is noble, and the Chu Emperor of Confucius and Mencius has pardoned it, and he got a sedan chair to sit on, and the others can only mix with a share of running on the ground.
"Whoa!
Fortunately, the Gyeonggi River was not very far from the court, and the ministers gritted their teeth and insisted, and finally heard the sound of the river flowing.
At this moment, on the Gyeonggi River, a huge circular waterwheel is erected on the surface of the river, and with the promotion of the water, the wooden baffles of the waterwheel scoop up the clear and transparent river water, and flow into dozens of very thick bamboo pipes, and then, the thick bamboo pipes fork into various directions and flow to different places.
