After two years of dredging and rectification, the entire Jilong River channel was finally connected.
Some places are too fast to form waterfalls, and the water flow has been slowed down by diversion. However, there are some canyons in the middle, and if you want to widen it, the amount of work would be too much.
Therefore, large ships are still unable to pass through, and only small boats can transport people and goods.
After walking all the way through mountains and gorges, we finally arrived at Heilong Mansion in Xincheng.
"Welcome the Black Dragon King!"
When they came this time, representatives from various departments in Heilong Mansion also got the message, and the crowd on the dock came to greet Feng Yibo.
As soon as the boat docked, everyone bowed down and worshiped!
Feng Yibo raised his hand slightly and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work."
The dog next to him also said loudly: "No."
Everyone then stood up one after another, and Feng Yibo slowly got off the boat and went straight to the leaders Wang Xifeng and Ke Qing.
"I'm back."
But Qing just looked at him with a smile, tears falling down.
In the past few years, she and Wang Xifeng still cooperated tacitly, but as Feng Chi grew older, the pressure on her also increased.
When I saw Feng Yibo at this time, all the accumulated grievances suddenly came to my heart.
But Wang Xifeng turned her beautiful eyes slightly when she saw her like this, and then said:
"It'll be great if I come back!"
As he said that, he pulled his son and urged:
"Brother Chi, why don't you call someone quickly?"
"Father..."
Feng Can shouted timidly, apparently he was taught by Wang Xifeng.
Feng Yibo smiled and nodded, but he ran towards Ke Qing, gently wiped Ke Qing's tears first, and whispered a few words in her ear.
Then, regardless of Keqing's red ears, she stepped forward with a smile, picked up Feng Chi, and said with a smile:
"Just call me father, even daddy!"
Wang Xifeng saw him being intimate with Keqing but couldn't see him. Now seeing him pick up his son, she suddenly smiled and said:
"Sir, for a family like ours, we can be called whatever we want at home. Wouldn't it make people laugh if we still call us like ordinary people outside?"
Feng Yibo gently patted Feng Chi's butt and said nonchalantly: "Donghai County belongs to us, and we set the rules. Even if we leave Donghai County, who would dare to laugh at us?"
"What you are saying is that I am short-sighted." Wang Xifeng stepped forward with a smile, took Feng Chi's little hand, and taught, "Brother Chi, don't call me daddy yet."
Feng Chi was still a little afraid of life and did not dare to move in Feng Yibo's arms. When her mother called her, she reluctantly called out: "Daddy."
"good."
Feng Yibo nodded with satisfaction, then carried Feng Chi towards the house, with Ke Qing and Wang Xifeng following behind.
The representatives of each department hesitated and wanted to follow, but were stopped by Gouzi.
"Your Majesty is tired of traveling and traveling. I already know why you came to greet me today. In a few days, Your Majesty will inspect the work of various departments. You all should go back and make preparations early, so as not to miss the mark at the critical moment."
Everyone hurriedly bowed and said: "Thank you Black Dog King for the tip!"
After speaking, many people hurried back to make arrangements, and only five palm prints remained.
That is, Ruizhu, Ping'er, Qianxue, Yuanyang, and Xiren entered the mansion together with Gouzi, Mengzi, and Qin Zhong.
These are all personal to Feng Yibo, so naturally they are different from others.
After entering the house, Feng Yibo went to bathe and change clothes first to wash away the dust.
When changing clothes, he found that the two maids taking care of him were characters and looked familiar.
Feng Yibo looked at it intently, then frowned and said:
"Are you the daughters of the Zhen family?"
The two of them immediately trembled when they heard this, and one of them reluctantly said:
"My slave, this is my sister's message. I dare not deceive the prince. My original name is Zhen Yingtai, and my sister's original name is Zhen Yingzi. We are both daughters of the Zhen family in Jinling. Now we serve the eldest wife."
According to the custom of the Zhen family, daughters are also named after men, which is the same character as the man Fan.
Unlike other people who use colorful words such as "spring, red, fragrant, and jade".
The previous generation of the Zhen family all started with the character "Bei".
Zhen Shi, also known as Zhen Fei, is a distant branch of the Zhen family.
Among the entire Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia is the only one who is different.
This was when Emperor Taizu stayed at the Zhen family during his last tour to the south of the Yangtze River. It happened that the legitimate son of the Zhen family was born, so he was named Yingjia.
On the surface, it means "to be close to all people with gifts".
In fact, there is also a saying that "the people can be defeated with a stone".
Both of them come from "Zhou Li".
Needless to say, the former naturally refers to Emperor Taizu's visit to the south of the Yangtze River as a gift to all people.
The latter, on the other hand, was beating the Zhen family and telling them to correct their mistakes.
It is a pity that the head of the Zhen family at the time, Zhen Yingjia's father, clearly knew the meaning, but still did not repent.
When Zhen Yingjia arrived, he also followed his example and gave the next generation the nickname "Baoyu", which corresponds to Jia Shi.
But that's the limit. The Zhen family is like this, dragging down one generation after another, often seeming to have a desire to correct themselves, but in fact they always have illusions and pin their hopes on the next generation.
Deceiving oneself and others will naturally result in the destruction of the family and the family.
It was also Zhen Yingjia who was given a unique name by Taizu, who was unique and determined the position of patriarch of the Zhen family in advance.
When the next generation comes, they will follow the example of "English".
The same goes for Zhen Yinglian of Xiangling, and the same goes for the sisters of the Zhen family.
This was the first time Feng Yibo saw these sisters, so he couldn't help but look at them carefully.
It is true that the two people's eyebrows are somewhat similar to Qin Keqing's. Looking carefully, they are also similar to Xiangling, but their temperament is very different from the two.
Qin Keqing is charming and graceful, with countless manners.
Xiangling has a similar figure, but is very cute.
And these two sisters also have their own characteristics.
My sister, Zhen Yingtai, seemed to have a cheerful temperament and spoke clearly and logically, but she was very nervous or scared in front of him, and she trembled slightly when she spoke.
The younger sister looks extremely fragile, and she carefully hides behind her sister, not daring to raise her head to look at Feng Yibo, which makes her even more endearing.
Feng Yibo nodded when he heard this and said nothing, just thinking about it in his mind.
After all is said and done, this matter still needs to be communicated with Ke Qing.
Zhen Yingtai was very frightened when she saw the black dragon king, who had never seen the dragon before its end, thinking that their sisters would definitely sacrifice their lives today.
It could be seen that the other party only glanced at her twice, nodded and left the bathroom, feeling a little anxious again.
She wanted to say something more, but Zhen Yingzi held her back and shook her head slightly.
Feng Yibo ignored the two people's thoughts and went straight to Qin Keqing's courtyard.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they couldn't help themselves.
For a moment, the thunder and fire from the sky were louder than a thousand words.
"You know I didn't mean this. The two sisters of the Zhen family were not left to your disposal for your own sake..."
Ke Qing took a long breath and then explained:
"Do you want me to use them to win over the people below? When I first met them, I felt a little close to them, and they were somewhat similar to me, so I stayed by my side to serve them."
Gouzi had mentioned these sisters earlier, and Feng Yibo asked Ke Qing to handle them at that time.
His original intention was not to keep people from the Zhen family in the house, but to let Ke Qing give the meritorious officials of Donghai County to help her win some hearts.
Unexpectedly, Keqing did not do this. Not only did he keep them as maids in the mansion, but he also sent them to him.
The meaning of this can be imagined.
But Qing obviously didn't intend to use it to win over others, but sent it to him to solidify his favor.
It seems that after Wang Xifeng had a son, Qin Keqing was under great pressure, which is why he acted like this.
It was because of this that Feng Yibo wanted to make it clear to Ke Qing.
Unexpectedly, before he mentioned it, Keqing hurriedly asked him to move the two of them into the house.
"Although I am not a womanizer, I will not disrupt my original plan because of two strangers."
Originally, Feng Yibo thought that the war with the Japanese country would be a protracted war, so he must do his best to mobilize the entire Donghai County and even the people on the southeastern coast of the Wei Dynasty.
In addition to the hatred of traitors in the previous life, the main reason why the signboard of Jingshiyuan was erected was to use this incident to arouse emotions and give a psychological hint to the people of Donghai County.
Unexpectedly, the war would not last long before he found an opportunity. In the end, the battle was decided and the peace terms were signed.
This greatly reduced the role of the Jingshiyuan. In addition to venting his anger, even if it could give some warning to future generations, it would still be far from the effect he wanted.
However, the reservation should be retained.
It was impossible for him to cancel the originally announced order just for the sake of two women. This would undermine his authority.
When Ke Qing heard this, he immediately understood Feng Yibo's concerns and said with a smile:
"I'm really overly cautious. The female relatives of criminals in the past dynasties were either slaves or worked in the Jiaofang Department. Did it have any impact?"
In her opinion, the Zhen family is equivalent to the prison officials, and the Jingshiyuan is the Jiaofangsi.
Since it falls into the hands of Donghai County, there is nothing wrong with leaving two good-looking people to serve this man.
"Except Wu Zhou, is there any woman like Donghai County in the past dynasties who can take charge of affairs?"
Feng Yibo shook his head and said solemnly:
"Except for traitors and foreigners, there are no unworthy people in Donghai County. This is not because there is a shortage of people, but because I did it intentionally."
But Qing was stunned when he heard the words, a little confused about what he meant.
"I want women in Donghai County to be able to study, work, and serve as officials just like men. Except for some special jobs that are divided between men and women, I hope that women in Donghai County have the same status as men and can hold up positions. Half the sky of Donghai County.”
Although the population of Donghai County has continued to rise, let alone the Wei Dynasty, even the Japanese country with a population of tens of millions still overwhelmed Donghai County in terms of size.
Therefore, Feng Yibo’s long-standing idea is to approach both sides!
While poaching the corners of the Wei Dynasty, it absorbed a large number of immigrants.
On the other side, it falls on these women from Donghai County.
In addition to encouraging childbirth, he has also been committed to subtly improving the status of women in order to maximize the liberation of existing productivity.
And if this trend continues, if the two daughters of the Zhen family are taken over, their status will inevitably increase as his housemates in the future.
If the two of them give birth to another son and a half daughter for Feng Yibo, they will inevitably take the opportunity to plead for the Zhen family.
By then, wouldn’t what was written on the door of the Jingshiyuan become empty words?
But Qing was a little flustered for a moment and said hurriedly:
"Then I messed up my plan? Please punish me!"
In her opinion, the Zhen family could not stand up for generations in Donghai County.
Apart from their beautiful colors, these two sisters pose no threat at all. They have no family behind them and can be subdued with a little care.
It is the best candidate for solid pet.
I didn’t expect that it would involve so many things.
Seeing that she understood, Feng Yibo smiled and shook his head, saying:
"He who doesn't know is not guilty. Besides, I also know that you are under a lot of pressure, but it is better to ask for yourself than to ask for help from others. Let's work together when we come back this time."
But when Qing heard this, she rolled her eyes at him charmingly, then silently took her position and asked for everything.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yibo was not in a hurry, but continued:
"As for those two girls from the Zhen family, it's all up to you. If they know what's good and what's wrong, then they can stay with you and be a part of the house."
After all, Donghai County is his territory.
If he spits out the fat that reaches his mouth, it will inevitably make people think that he is too disciplined.
As the saying goes: A gentleman can bully others.
A ruler like him who rarely shows up must give people the impression of being moody and unable to guess his thoughts.
If people think he follows the rules, it will make some people lose their respect.
So since Keqing did it, he just had to make it clear.
This not only makes people unpredictable, but also leaves enough face for Ke Qing.
This can avoid similar things happening in the future, and also allow us to naturally accept these sisters.
"Hmph! Then let me thank you for your forgiveness on their behalf."
But when Qing saw him going around and around, he still agreed to take in the Zhen sisters. Even though he understood what Feng Yibo meant, he still couldn't help but roll his eyes at him.
"Haha, it depends on your performance!"
Feng Yibo smiled evilly and stretched out his hand to pat it lightly, making a "pop" sound.
"Turn around first!"
"snort!"
The next day, Feng Yibo, led by five palm prints, went to inspect the work of each department.
The Personnel Department is preparing for the scientific examination.
Since there is no Department of Culture, and the scientific examination is related to future examination officials, it is left to the Department of Personnel.
This year's entrance examination is about to begin, and the principals of each middle school are meeting here.
Feng Yibo listened for a while and took some notes, but did not make any suggestions on the spot.
He always speaks his mind in Donghai County, and even if he has any ideas, he must issue them in the form of a decree.
The Military Department is very busy.
The mobilization of troops from various places and the logistics of expeditions are all handled here.
Feng Yibo asked about the assembly process, and then took the people away.
The Department of Law is the most leisurely, no different from usual.
Feng Yibo listened to a trivial case and then left silently.
Finance Department, money and food are piling up like mountains.
Every time he saw a hoard of money and food, Feng Yibo felt a sense of satisfaction.
The craftsmen and craftsmen are still busy making ordnance day and night.
Feng Yibo turned around and looked at a lot of equipment that was still being tested.
Here he finally opened his mouth and made a lot of suggestions, which benefited the craftsmen a lot.
Many projects that are at bottlenecks have some prospects.
At night, Feng Yibo was not in a hurry to eat the Zhen sisters, but went to Wang Xifeng first.
He had plenty of time when he came this time, and he couldn't ignore Wang Xifeng because of the two girls from the Zhen family.
