Rebirth of the Imperial Uncle's Medical Concubine

Chapter 175 Jiangnan Prefecture Magistrate

Xiao Hanqi angrily said to Li Changzui, "The court allocates funds for repairs every year. This is what they repaired. The rainy season is coming soon. They are playing with the lives and property of the people!"

Li Changzui could see that Xiao Hanqi was angry. He didn’t blame Xiao Hanqi for being angry, as he was also very angry when he saw the situation here!

But Li Changzui still advised Xiao Hanqi, "Okay, don't be angry, wait until the county magistrate comes! After all, there are some things that a small county magistrate like him cannot control!"

Xiao Hanqi knew in his heart that such things were common, but he still couldn't help getting angry!

Just when the two were about to say something, Xiao Yi came over with someone.

Li Changzui looked the man up and down. He was wearing a navy blue robe, with an upright posture and steady steps. The years had left some marks on his face, but his eyes were still as bright as stars, revealing wisdom and calmness. His beard was neatly trimmed, adding a bit of solemnity.

Li Changzui saw a hint of helplessness in the man's eyes. Li Changzui thought that this person should be a good person because when he saw Xiao Hanqi before, he did not dodge at all.

The visitor looked at Yili Changzui, then at Xiao Hanqi, bowed to Xiao Hanqi and said, "Lu Lin, the magistrate of Jiangnan Prefecture, greets King Han!"

Xiao Hanqi put away the expression on his face, raised his hand towards Lu Lin, and signaled Lu Lin to get up!

Lu Lin stood up and looked at Xiao Hanqi. Neither of them spoke. Xiao Hanqi looked Lu Lin up and down, and Lu Lin also looked at Xiao Hanqi.

Xiao Hanqi slowly opened his mouth and asked, "County Magistrate Lu, I would like to ask if the court will issue repair funds annually!"

Lu Lin nodded and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, we have annual repair funds, but...but...!"

Xiao Hanqi sneered and said on behalf of Lu Lin, "But you will only get one or two tenths of them!"

When Lu Lin heard what Xiao Hanqi said, he immediately knelt down and said to Xiao Hanqi, "It's not one or two out of ten, it's none!"

When Xiao Hanqi heard this, he said angrily, "No, how could there be no!"

When Lu Lin heard Xiao Hanqi's question, he boldly said, "Really not, Your Majesty, it's true!"

When Xiao Hanqi heard this, he burst into laughter and said to Li Changzui, "See, see, this is why we say some things are rotten to the core. Is there anything else to say?"

When Lu Lin heard what Xiao Hanqi said, he knelt on the ground helplessly. Even though he was kneeling on a stone, he didn't feel any pain. After all, Lu Lin was in great pain!

The rainy season is coming soon, and there are many collapses on the embankments. If we leave it alone, the lives and property of the people will be in jeopardy!

When Lu Lin thought of this, he kowtowed to Xiao Hanqi and said, "Your Majesty, please save the people of Jiangnan Prefecture!"

Xiao Hanqi sighed and said to Lu Lin, "Okay, you're up! I'll find a way. Now go gather the people and ask them to prepare the tools. We're going to build the dam."

When Lu Lin heard this, he stood up excitedly and said, "Prince, are you serious? Can we really build a dam?"

Xiao Hanqi nodded and said, "Okay, go get ready!"

Lu Lin responded and left.

As soon as Lu Lin left, Li Changzui said to Xiao Hanqi, "What are you going to do? Are you going to pay for it yourself? Shouldn't you explain the reason to His Majesty first? Let His Majesty decide."

Xiao Hanqi shook his head and said, "It's too late. The rainy season will begin in a month. If we don't do anything now, Jiangnan will be flooded this year if nothing unexpected happens."

Li Changzui became even more nervous when he heard this, and said to Xiao Hanqi, "So what are you going to do? Pay for it yourself?"

Xiao Hanqi hasn't thought of any solution yet, so he decides to go back to his residence first!

So when the three of them returned to Jiangnan's residence, Liyue had already asked people to pack up and prepare food for them.

As soon as Li Yue saw the three people coming back, she said to Xiao Hanqi, "Are you tired after coming back? Do you want to eat first? Or do you want to rest for a while?"

Xiao Hanqi touched Liyue's head. It felt so good to see Liyue as soon as he got home. When he saw Liyue, it felt like everything that happened just now no longer existed!

Xiao Hanqi smiled at Li Yue and said, "I'm not hungry. You guys eat first. I'll go to the study for a while."

After Xiao Hanqi finished speaking, he went straight to the study without waiting for Li Yue to speak. Li Yue saw the helplessness on Xiao Hanqi's face, but she didn't know what had happened. After all, at this time in her previous life, she had been under house arrest by Xiao Tianming!

Li Yue looked at Li Changzui and said, "Brother, what happened to Han Qi?"

Li Changzui sighed and told Li Yue what happened just now. When he mentioned that Lu Lin said that Jiangnan Mansion had not received a penny of repair money, Li Yue stood up angrily and said, "Great, great, these people are really amazing."

Li Changzui looked helplessly at the furious Li Yue and continued, "This man from your family wants to pay for the repair of the dam himself!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yue looked at Li Changzui in surprise and said, "Han Qi said that I have to pay for it myself?"

Li Changzui shook his head and said, "I didn't say that, but it's almost the same!"

When Li Yue heard Li Changzui say this, she went straight to the study.

Li Changzui saw Li Yue leaving and said to Luo Minghe beside him, "Go call Meng'er and ask them to come for dinner. I don't think they will come for dinner today!"

When Luo Minghe heard that they were going to look for Li Meng, he started to hesitate and wanted to refuse, but he also wanted to go see Li Meng. In the end, Luo Minghe went anyway.

Li Changzui glanced at Luo Minghe who was leaving, shook his head helplessly and said, "No one of them is worry-free!"

Li Yue came to the study and pushed the door open. Xiao Hanqi had his back to the door and thought it was Xiao Yi. He said to Xiao Yi, "Go out. I want to be alone. Don't let Yue Er know!"

Li Yue smiled and took two steps forward, then said to Xiao Hanqi's back, "How come there is something I can't know?"

When Xiao Hanqi heard Li Yue's voice, he turned around quickly. Seeing that it was Li Yue, he quickly walked to Li Yue's side, held her up with his hand, and said to her with a smile, "It's nothing. I'm just worried about something. I'm afraid you'll worry!"

Li Yue smiled and looked at Xiao Hanqi and said, "Are you angry at those termites and thinking about how to help the people in Jiangnan Prefecture? Are you?"

Xiao Hanqi smiled and hugged Liyue. He took a deep breath on Liyue's neck and said, "Yes, Yue'er is the one who understands me!"

Li Yue was tickled by Xiao Hanqi, so she raised her hand and pushed Xiao Hanqi and said, "Stop it, it's itchy!"

Xiao Hanqi just held on tightly and refused to let go, saying to Li Yue coquettishly, "Don't, don't push me away, let me hold you for a while longer!"
