Yue Rushuang couldn't find many memories of her grandfather in her memory, but she remembered that her grandfather had a study room that no one was allowed to enter. Maybe there would be something left behind, so she could go and see it another day.
Yue Rushuang turned her back to the emperor and was responsible for listening. Eunuch Pan held the stethoscope and slid it on the emperor's chest.
"A little up, no, a little to the left."
Yue Rushuang commanded Eunuch Pan.
Fairly smooth.
Yue Rushuang did another consultation, from diet to sleep.
The emperor is indeed depressed and ill.
Yue Rushuang gave me a suggestion to rearrange my work and rest time.
That turned out to be extremely unreasonable.
Yue Rushuang suggested pushing back the time for going to court by one hour.
The Emperor: "What time should I go to court? It is an ancestral rule. I can change it if I want to."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said: "Then how to develop? We all listen to our ancestors. Our ancestors still dug the ground with their hands, used straight-hook plows in the past, and used to carry water to irrigate the paddy fields. Haven't everything changed now?"
"A master should be better than a master. A teacher should make his disciples more knowledgeable than himself. A king should be stronger than the kings of the previous generation. If they all follow the rules of their ancestors, they will not be the same as their ancestors. Sample?"
emperor……
The emperor looked at the queen.
Listen to it, they are all treacherous words.
I'm withdrawing, now it's up to you.
"Queen, please sit down. I have to go back to the imperial study first."
"If someone can solve the flood problem for me, I would rather reward her with the two hundred thousand taels. Alas, I can only go there myself."
Then he came down to look for shoes.
Myolie ran over, holding a pair of slippers in her hand and placing them on the ground.
"It's in our girl's box. I think the emperor can wear it."
emperor……
A house full of children is worse than a little conscientious maid.
The emperor usually doesn't like to wear boots when he doesn't see his ministers. He often steps on the heels of his shoes and pulls them on. The shoes Myolie brought are open from the front and back, with the toes and heels exposed.
"These are slippers. Our uncle wears these at home. Your Majesty, please try them on."
After speaking, he took another pair and gave them to Eunuch Pan.
"This is for father-in-law."
Yue Rushuang smiled awkwardly and said: "My daughter-in-law was originally prepared for my father..."
emperor……
I believe you!
Xing'er nodded sharply.
emperor……
What do you nod to? You girls just nod your head no matter what you say.
When passing by Xing'er, the emperor stretched out his finger and poked Xing'er's head hard.
"reward!"
Everyone...
The Emperor loves Miss Xing'er so much. He has never done this to Princess An Yi.
Yue Rushuang...
Myolie is the real master of palace fighting.
Just giving me slippers will make your girl and uncle look inferior.
"It's not easy for your Majesty. I'm so tired and sick." Xing'er said.
"The Emperor is rewarding you, why don't you thank me quickly!"
Eunuch Pan's face turned into chrysanthemums.
The emperor had already walked out, and Xing'er shouted loudly: "My slave, thank you for the reward!"
Then he turned back and asked Yue Rushuang: "Girl, can I still eat this?"
"This slave is not full."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said, "Go!"
The queen saw Xing'er's temper and knew that Yue Rushuang had a good temper. Although she had seen her beating someone, the queen insisted that the beating was right.
The Queen sighed.
"The Emperor was forced to do this."
"I heard that there have been heavy rains in the south of the Yangtze River for days, and the floods have flooded the villages and small towns on both sides, leaving hundreds of thousands of people homeless. The emperor gave him 200,000 taels of silver, but no results were seen. The emperor was angry and said that as long as someone can control the flood, , and can prevent the people from being displaced, I will reward her with two hundred thousand taels of silver."
"It's two hundred thousand taels for free. I was moved when I heard it, but I don't know how to deal with floods."
After the queen finished speaking, she looked at Yue Rushuang expectantly.
Yue Rushuang...?
Queen...
Didn't understand.
Come again!
The queen let out a long sigh:
"That year, I happened to be in Jiangnan, and there was a flood like this..."
The queen's eyes showed a confused look, as if she had traveled through time and returned to the past years.
"My good home was washed away by the flood, and my relatives were gone. Princess, have you ever heard of changing your son to eat? Even rich families will starve to death. There are dead people everywhere..."
After the queen finished speaking, she hugged her shoulders tightly, obviously not wanting to think of that painful memory.
Aunt Zhang...
Second girl, you have never even left the capital. When did you go to Jiangnan?
Aunt Xiao...
"The old slave was also frightened after seeing it. He had nightmares every night when he came back. If the girl hadn't stopped him, he would have cut off his own flesh and cooked it for others to eat."
Aunt Zhang...
Forget it, after eating your flesh, everyone will become a liar...
Aunt Xiao wiped her tears.
"Such a cute child, so chubby, and his round face is tender to the touch. Oh, it's so miserable..."
Aunt Zhang...
It's still meaty. Is the child hungry or not?
Aunt Zhang glanced at Aunt Xiao anxiously, then turned her head silently.
Yue Rushuang desperately thought about classic cases of flood control.
Of course, she didn't think about it at all.
She didn't pay attention to this in her previous life either.
The queen looked at Yue Rushuang...
Didn't I make it obvious enough?
Or are you still tempted by two hundred thousand taels?
The queen stood up, looking so sad that she could hardly help herself.
"I'm going back first. I still have to take care of the emperor."
The queen left with the Xiao Zhang duo.
Yue Rushuang...
"Father is under too much pressure."
Prince...
"I'm going to ask Father for an order, so I'd better go."
"If these people go, it will be good if half of this money can be used for disaster relief."
Yue Rushuang...
Corrupt officials are really tenacious creatures. They exist in every dynasty, and they are all brave. The money for disaster relief is life-saving money, but they dare to pocket it.
"Your leg……?"
"I can walk and run, no problem!"
Yue Rushuang knew that this was a major event and a responsibility that the prince could not avoid.
Yue Rushuang helped the prince back to the room.
"Have you been to Jiangnan?"
The prince said: "Been there! The Qiansha River flows outside Quzhou. Once there is a heavy rain, the water cannot be discharged. It is useless to raise the dams repeatedly."
"The national treasury is empty, the household department has no money, and my father's internal funds are not sufficient. I am afraid that even my father will not be able to come up with two hundred thousand taels."
Yue Rushuang...
"Do you have a map? I'm going to look through the book and see if I can find any solution?"
The prince raised his eyebrows: "Going to the other side of the sky to find the answer again?"
Yue Rushuang...
"Hey, there's no harm in reading a book!"
The prince came to the table, dipped his pen in ink, and drew the picture.
Yue Rushuang pretended to read a few books in the prince's study. There were no books about water conservancy, so Yue Rushang reluctantly took a few travel notes to fool around.
The prince looked at her and said nothing.
Yue Rushuang entered the space with her consciousness.
She found that even in modern times, when serious floods occur, it is necessary to pile up sandbags, etc., which requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Another trick is to pick a village, first move the people, and then release the water.
Yue Rushuang took a photo of the picture drawn by the prince and entered it into the computer.
After searching for a long time, Dujiangyan came out.
Yue Rushuang...
Could it be that the two places are similar?
Is it feasible to use the Dujiangyan method?
Yue Rushuang printed out all the information and pictures about Dujiangyan and put them away.
The prince looked at Yue Rushuang holding up a book, without turning a page, and read for half an hour.
Prince: "Xiyue will definitely come tomorrow to talk about the annual tribute and marriage. After what happened that day at Datuzi Mountain, Xiyue will definitely be more cautious. Do you want to participate?"
Yue Rushuang said: "I'm not going."
"Tomorrow I will take Xing'er out of the palace to sell goods. I will fill the shop next to me with goods. I will also go back to Daliushu Village. The mistress and the others are fine. They are making preserved eggs every day, but those bandits are now If there’s nothing left to do, I’m going to let them raise chickens.”
"The army of ducks and ducks are helping to weed every village. The money is still with Mr. Chen. I want to take it back."
Prince...
"The princess is busy with this all day, don't you need to serve your husband?"
When Yue Rushuang heard this, she immediately closed her eyes.
Prince...
The prince was a little depressed. How long will he last?
***
Changchun Palace.
The Queen said: "I will go and encourage the Crown Princess tomorrow."
"The Crown Princess cares about the people. To put it pitifully, she will definitely go."
The Emperor: "I cannot issue an edict. If I issue an edict, the prince will not be able to control the floods. He will be held captive and asked to go on his own."
"If it works, say they were sent by me. If it doesn't work, just ask them to come back quietly."
"I pretend I don't know."
Anyway, I don't expect them to be able to control the flood. As long as the princess goes away, God can stop the rain.
