"Next month is the king's birthday, so the king thinks it's better to come in advance, so it's set for the day after tomorrow. When the time comes www.biquge.info all the officials of the province will be present as usual, and they will all be detained, and any one of them will not be satisfied and disobedient...... Kill!"

When everyone heard this, this idea was good, the reason was right, the local officials had no way to shirk it, the emperor had not yet issued an order to cut down the feudal domain, he was still a legitimate prince, who dared not to come? If they come, they can be wiped out. If they don't come, it will prove that they have received a secret order from the court, and they must speed up their actions. At this time, they don't care about Ling Lingqi's escape, this person doesn't mean much to them now, if Ling Lingqi is still in the Jiwang Mansion now, maybe they really want to think of a way to get rid of him.

Next, the preparatory work in the Jiwang Mansion was even more in full swing, relatives and friends had reported the arrival of the day in advance, and the Jiwang Mansion was full of lights, and the lights in the house were bright at night until dawn. The actors on the big stage in the house were arranging early, and the sound of gongs, drums and musical instruments drifted in the house from time to time, and they were full of joy.

King Ji himself has been hiding in the secret room of the study, and he is deploying troops with this group of strategists and strategists against the big military map. Several of King Ji's brothers were also dragged in by King Ji, they were young and vigorous, and when they heard that King Ji was going to rebel, they were overjoyed and ready to do a big job. King Ji was very pleased and arranged for them to stay in Huzhou after the incident.

King Ji's birthday was a major event in Huzhou City. Early in the morning, the door cannon sounded, followed by the drum music, as soon as the local gentry and the provincial officials arrived, the bell and drum sounded in due time, and the gate was also full of traffic, and people came and went.

Sun Jian, the supreme governor of Zhejiang West Road, with a large group of military officials, also arrived, only missing Zhang Ding, Zhang Ding had already set off to return to Beijing two days before to report on his work, and the person who replaced him had just arrived, and he happened to encounter this incident, I don't know if it was lucky or unlucky. Sun Jian has not received instructions from the capital these days, and he does not dare to act rashly, and now King Ji has posted a post asking him to come to eat birthday wine, he has no reason to shirk, as long as the emperor does not issue an order to cut the domain for a day, he is still a prince.

After Ling Lingqi asked the direction of going to Moganshan, he came to Zhao Mengjian's hometown of Moganshan Hekou Town in a short time. The Zhao family is not an ordinary family in the local area, and a fellow villager enthusiastically shows him the way when he asks.

Although the Zhao family has been an official in the court for many years and is a descendant of the royal family, the situation of the family is average, and it is not as rich and imposing as imagined. Zhao Mengjian was not at home, and the servant said that he was going to open the river, but when he saw that it was a guest from afar, he immediately asked people to shout.

"Open the river?" Ling Lingqi didn't understand, this Zhao Mengjian had nothing to do at home, and he couldn't think of going to open the river to dig mud to earn hard labor, right?

Drinking tea and thinking about it, Zhao Mengjian and Yun'er arrived together.

"Big brother, are you here?" Zhao Mengjian ignored the dirt all over his body, rushed up and hugged Ling Lingqi, so excited that he couldn't speak, just patted his shoulder, and the brotherly love was overflowing.

"Brother Ling is good. Yun'er was much more reserved on the side, just smiling slightly.

"Okay, so are you. It's been a long time since I've seen you, and I really miss you. Ling Lingqi grew up with the education of the current generation, and he didn't care about whether men and women could teach or receive anything, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yun'er, but fortunately, Zhao Mengjian's face did not show uncertainty.

After Zhao Mengjian washed his face and changed his clothes, he chatted with Ling Lingqi.

"Why did you kid want to work as a river opener? strange thing...... Ling Lingqi asked.

"There's no way, it's apportioned, every family has a share, and everyone has to do it. It is also for the benefit of the local people, and it is a good thing for generations to come, how can you not do it?" Zhao Mengjian said with a smile.

Ling Lingqi only heard the word apportionment, and said in his heart that this magistrate is really not small, and he dared to let Zhao Hong's family go out to do labor, and the families of the scholars in this year are all exempted from miscellaneous labor, especially since the year of Li Zong, the status of this literati and gentry has slowly come up, unlike the original Hongwu period when the literati were not valuable. He pretended to be angry and asked, "What kind of local government is it? Do you dare to let our eldest son Fei do such hard work and don't want to live?"

"Shhhh......h Big brother, your face is not small, as soon as grandpa heard that you were coming, he said that he would come later. ”

"Oh, Brother Fool is also trying to meet Scholar Zhao......"

"It's coming soon, but you just asked who is doing the opening of the river, hehe, it's him. Zhao Mengjian said how Zhao Hong thought of opening the river after returning home.

At that time, although Hekou Town had not yet become a "wharf of eight provinces" with merchants flowing and goods gathering in Fujian, Sichuan and Guangzhou, and mixed with Zhejiang, Huaiyang, it was already densely populated and merchants gathered. Zhao Hong, as an important minister of the imperial court, had a certain foresight for the development of his hometown, and he was keenly aware of the local geographical location and convenient water and land transportation, and this Hekou town would become a place for goods distribution and trade in surrounding provinces and counties in the future, and it was also possible to become a prosperous commercial port in northeast Jiangxi.

However, the terrain of Hekou Town has always been low-lying, bordering Taihu Lake in the north and Moganshan River in the east. Since he can't govern the country and level the world, he can only do his best to do some good deeds for his hometown fathers and elders.

So, he went out early and returned late, went to the village and alleys, asked the three elders, listened to the voices of the people, checked the people's opinions, and traveled several times in the streets, alleys, mountains and rivers of Hekou Town and the surrounding areas. In the end, it was decided to dig an artificial river from Wangjia Lane Zhangjia on the bank of the Moganshan River, lead the water of the Moganshan River to flow north, pass through Wangjia Lane and Hanjiapeng to the west of Dahanjia, and divide it into two branches in Wangziyuan: one injects Qinghu Lake to the west and then enters the Yangtze River for flood season, and the other flows north through Hekou Town and enters the Yangtze River.

After Zhao Hong surveyed and designed, he found a local official and explained the matter, and when the local official heard that the local people were raising their own funds to do good deeds, how could he not agree? Not to mention that although this scholar Zhao is no longer an official, his influence in the DPRK and the Central Committee is still not small, and he may go up again one day. So he was also busy going in and out of everything before and after, so even Zhao Mengjian couldn't be idle, so he had to follow to work and dig the mud.

As soon as Zhao Hong saw Ling Lingqi, he was just stunned for a moment, and then politely gave a salute, which was only like this because Ling Lingqi was the emperor's pro-Ling. (To be continued.) )
