The Power of the First Daughter, Doctor and Concubine Dominates the World

  Chapter 852 Siblings

  The voice was heard inside and out, Xiao Changyao was a little embarrassed, he lowered his head.

   King Xiang raised his eyes to look at Xiao Xun, Xiao Xun pondered for a while, and said to Xiao Changyao, "Second brother, this river is entrusted to you, five million taels of silver a year, how long will it take you to repair it?"

  Xiao Changyao raised his head abruptly, a bright light flashed in his eyes, "Fifth brother, if this river can be done once and for all, from ancient times to the present, can the emperors of all dynasties still have nothing to do with her?"

   Cui Nanjia couldn't help breaking into a cold sweat, she looked at Xie Zhiwei with a begging look.

  Xie Zhiwei's expression was calm. For some reason, Cui Nanjia slowly let go of her when she saw her like this.

   "Second brother, it's because I'm a bit superficial. In this way, it can't be said that money has been spent, and so much effort has been spent, but there is no result. Second brother, how about you propose a charter?"

"There is a man named Gao Bin. It is said that he is a classmate of Yu Yingzhi, a Jinshi who is very good at farming under Fifth Brother. I don't know if Fifth Brother has heard of it. If Fifth Brother can introduce this person to me, I will discuss with him. Maybe a decent charter can come out. I really don’t have much confidence, even if the fifth brother gives me three years and five million taels a year, I can only guarantee that the Yellow River will not break its embankment for ten years.”

  Ten years are much better than he imagined. Moreover, in these ten years, Xiao Changyao will definitely think of many ways to subdue this running yellow dragon.

"Okay, that's it!" Xiao Xun said, "I will let Mr. Lu tell the cabinet that I will give you more money this year. However, you also know that rectifying the administration of officials is not something that will happen overnight. If you make a big move, it will hurt your muscles and muscles." Bones, if your movements are small, you will scratch your head and make scholars all over the world laugh at you, but it will get better and better in the future!"

   All of a sudden, people inside and outside were in a better mood, Xiao Changyao got up, walked up to Xiao Xun, and wanted to bow. Xiao Xun raised his hand and stopped him, "My brother, second brother, what do you mean?"

   "Then I won't say anything else, the fifth brother trusts me, and after three years, I will give you a subdued yellow dragon!"

   "Okay! That's it!"

  King Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Xun was his son, if Xiao Xun refused to let Xiao Changyao go, to be honest, he felt sorry for his son, even though he felt sorry for Xiao Changyao, he still wouldn't say anything.

  However, as I get older, especially in the past few years, I don’t know if it’s the people around me, those who believe in Buddhism, or those who dig grottoes.

"Okay, father and son soldiers, brothers fighting tigers, you will have your brother to help you in the future, life will be much easier. River affairs, officials, borders, Japanese pirates, one by one, it is still not enough to rely on one person .”

  This matter, well, it’s a meritorious service through the ages, and it’s still a hard job to deal with neither civil officials nor military commanders. It would be great if Xiao Changyao could devote himself to river affairs.

   Mrs. Zhao quickly asked the maids to set the table, and came out to invite, "Father, Second Uncle, Your Highness, Son, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, let's go to the table first, and talk while eating."

  The same as Xie Zhiwei's previous practice, a twelve rosewood marble screen was surrounded in the middle, one table for men and one table for women, everyone sat down, and the maids and women began to serve the food.

At Xie Zhiwei's table, the emphasis was on eating without talking, while Xiao Changyao and Xiao Xun discussed endlessly about the river affairs. Xiao Changyao said, "I've thought about it too. There are three points to pay attention to when governing the river affairs. To dredge the estuary, pay attention to the word "dredging" so that the water can go out first; the second is to clean up the confluence of the Yellow River and the Huaihe River. Last year I went to see the confluence of the Huanghuai River and it was filled with silt. I plan to start there. Open a narrow channel to divert the water from the Huaihe River to wash away the sediment, widen the channel, and play a role in diverting and dredging.”

It can be seen that Xiao Changyao liked this job very much. When he talked about it, he talked eloquently, with bright lights in his eyes. Seeing that Xiao Xun listened with enthusiasm, he said, "The only way to control the river is to dredge it. Relying on blocking is definitely not enough.”

   "Why?" Xiao Xun asked, "I mean, what's the reason why the Yellow River always bursts its banks?"

Xiao Changyao shared the results of his own analysis, and drank while talking. After drinking, several people moved to Dongci Room and talked for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Xiao Xun thought that going back would take a lot of time, so he got up "Second brother, it's too late today, Ah Tu is young, even though you are next door, it still took a lot of work in the past, I think, so, you can go to Yu Yingzhi another day and ask Gao Bin's whereabouts, and you can discuss it yourself." .”

  For Xiao Xun, he only needs one result, since he used someone, don't doubt it.

  Xiao Changyao felt the trust in his tone and was very moved.

  After going back, Cui Nanjia asked the nanny to take Ah Tu down. After she helped Xiao Changyao take a bath and freshen up, the husband and wife leaned on the big pillow on the bed and talked.

   "I thought that no matter what I said, the fifth brother would not agree. But no matter what, I still want to fight for it. Who knows, it's like this."

   Cui Nanjia heard the emotion in Xiao Changyao's tone. After she married Xiao Changyao, she deeply experienced the suspicion and ruthlessness between the royal father and son brothers, which was more cruel than she imagined.

   Who will own the world in the future, no one knows better than them, and they don't know how to think about their future life.

   "Your Highness, why should you think so much? Your Highness still doesn't know what the identity of the Concubine Jing is? I heard that Empress Zhaoyang is a person who misses old love very much!"

  Xiao Changyao couldn't help laughing, the Cui family's well-bred daughter-in-law, is this the only knowledge? However, he did not intend to correct it.

Cui Nanjia was also a little embarrassed to say that, but she really didn't know what words to comfort her husband. She leaned on his chest, looked up at her husband's beautiful jaw, and suggested, "Your Highness, if you go to manage the river , I’d better go to Xuzhou with you!”

  Xiao Changyao thought of his son, and he shook his head, "It's different from before. You have to take care of Ah Tu and stay in Yanjing City. The conditions are still better. In the future, find a good teacher for Ah Tu and teach him to read well."

   "Where is Your Highness? Who will take care of His Highness? Or does His Highness have someone he likes?" Cui Nanjia asked.

  She heard that Chen Min was going to give Xiao Changyao his daughter as a concubine. Although Chen Min was convicted, the crime was not as good as being a married woman, let alone being a concubine for the prince.

   Seeing Xiao Changyao coming back alone, Cui Nanjia thought that he had placed the woman somewhere. Although she felt uncomfortable, she also knew that as the main wife, she really shouldn't have such emotions.

Xiao Changyao didn't think of this at all. He was a dignified prince, and he really took Chen Min's daughter as his concubine without being forced by others. He said, "I'm going to do hard work. Who should take care of me? Tong'an is enough." Already!"

   Today's update!

   Dear friends, many votes, the ranking has been falling all the way!
