The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

Song's sentence was obviously stating a fact, not asking Chu Heyi.

"When the Imperial Master was in a panic, you saved him from the horse's hooves. For this, the Imperial Master grants you a wish."

Song Ju continued to look into Chu Heyi's eyes and said, "Yes, I saw it."

"so what?"

"So, if you want the emperor to dig a canal in Shengjing City, the Imperial Master will speak for you, and what you want to do will soon be successful."

There was no sense of joy or anger in Song Ju's tone.

His eyes were still fixed on Chu Heyi's face, and he looked even more serious than before: "So, Miss Chu must know that I have a close friend in Shengjing City, and this friend of mine happens to be good at designing and building canals."

Chu Heyi said: "I didn't approach you because of him."

Song Ju closed his eyes, he had guessed right.

Yes, Chu Heyi's knowledge that Sang Nong was good at canal design was purely speculation, but now it seems to be true.

"Although I admire your brother's talent, you are you and he is him," Chu Heyi said.

Song Ju opened his eyes and looked at her: "So Miss Chu, do you still need my help now and ask your friends to design and build the canal?"

"Will you help me then?"

Song Ju was not surprised by her non-answer.

He didn't let Chu Heyi wait too long and gave his answer: "Yes."

"Teacher Song believes that I am not taking advantage of you?"

"Why not use me? The jobs you secured for the families of the Northern soldiers are great. For some families, without that job, their families would be ruined.

"The same principle applies to digging canals in Shengjing City today. Perhaps it can save many families facing ruin."

Song Ju's eyes suddenly became dark and unfathomable.

He still looked into Chu Heyi's eyes for a while before continuing, "Before I met Miss Chu, I was one of those people."

Most people in the world are not princes of noble status, but are just ordinary people struggling to make a living. A little light in their days is enough to make them happy for a long time.

Why should he mind being used?

If using him can bring a little light to the lives of people who are in the same difficult situation as he was, he can be used.

"But I have a question. How did Miss Chu know that Sang Nong was good at building ditches?"

They came from far away, traveling through mountains and rivers. No one in Shengjing City knew them. At that time, they were ragged, penniless, and lived in a place no different from that of beggars.

Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. When others take a look at them, they actively avoid them, let alone introduce themselves?

Unable to recommend himself and with no one to help him recommend himself, Sang Nong's talent remained buried.

However, Sang Nong was too stubborn. He was only obsessed with the design and construction of canals and was unwilling to do other things. As a result, he still lives in a dilapidated temple and lives on his meager monthly salary.

Of course, he did not support Sang Nong for no reason, because Sang Nong also helped him take care of his thirteen-year-old sister who had lost her eyes and was depressed.

"Teacher Song sends money out of the palace every month. One day, Baihua, who is beside me, found out about it. Baihua met Teacher Song's brother and he said he liked to draw pictures on the ground with stones. I went to see him and saw that he drew various canals. I thought it was amazing."

Song Ju's whole body stiffened, so, she also saw his sister, right?

Chu Heyi said: "If Mr. Song is willing, I will let Baihua settle them down, and then ask him to design a canal blueprint for Qingya River to Shengjing City and send it to the emperor."

"You..." Song Ju seemed to be greatly shocked. It took him a long time to say, "What do you think of them?"

After asking, I felt it was ridiculous!

She was the daughter of the Zhenbei Marquisate, so she looked at them like any other ordinary people, thinking that they were all people who needed help...

Song Ju's heart ached, very much.

So much so that without waiting for Chu Heyi's answer, he turned around and didn't want to listen anymore.

"If my friend knew that his talent was recognized by Miss Chu, he would be very happy. Miss Chu could have gone directly to him without asking me."

Chu Heyi breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course I asked you, you are a teacher I respect very much!"

For a moment, Song Ju felt that Chu Heyi probably already knew his true identity.

But it doesn’t look like it.

If he had not had to, he would not have to hide in the Daqi Palace.

After leaving the horse farm, Chu Heyi immediately asked Baihua to go out of the palace to do some work. First, he had to find a place to settle Sang Nong and Song Ju's sister Song Xi.

After they had rested, Baihua asked someone to take Sang Nong to familiarize himself with the environment between Shengjing City and Qingya River. After a few days, Sang Nong handed several drawings to Baihua and delivered them to Chu Heyi.

Chu Heyi got the drawings and immediately sent them to the emperor.

Not surprisingly, the emperor showed these drawings to his imperial teacher and court officials, who all thought they were very good. In the end, they selected the best one, opened the national treasury to get silver, and started construction.

Now, the families of the soldiers guarding the border of Daqi were all overjoyed.

However, the families of the soldiers stationed in the south and west received less wages, only three taels of silver per month.

No one complained, and everyone knew that the North was the most dangerous place right now.

However, no one forgot to thank the emperor and the court, and at the same time praised the ideal girl from the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion.

At first, the emperor felt flattered by the praise.

Chu Heyi also told him: "Your Majesty, if people live a good life, they will be willing to have children. With more children, the population of Daqi will increase. With more people, it will be easier to recruit soldiers. With a stronger army, who among the surrounding small countries will dare to look down on Daqi?"

After hearing this, the emperor burst into laughter. It was indeed true.

But a month later, he found that the imperial concubine's birthday banquet had to be prepared, and the silver in the treasury had almost been drained out. The emperor suddenly thought of a problem -

It seemed that he invited the Zhenbei Marquis family into the palace as hostages, but since Chu Heyi came, the silver in his treasury disappeared very quickly... Was Chu Heyi dissatisfied with coming to the palace as a hostage, so he tried every means to make him spend the silver?

And he happily let her spend it!

The emperor once again felt that he had been deceived by Chu Heyi and was being played around by her. Her previous tears and weak gestures were all fake, fake!!

Thinking of how he had foolishly listened to her before, the emperor felt ashamed and angry. How could he, a dignified emperor, be fooled by a little girl!

But then again, was Chu Heyi really playing a trick on him? Everything Chu Heyi wanted to do was approved by him, and he was enjoying it at the time.

The emperor was at a loss.

Perhaps it was a mistake to summon the Zhenbei Marquis family into the palace, otherwise he would still have millions of taels of silver!

The emperor was so heartbroken that his heart bled.

When Chu Runxue heard that the millions of taels of silver she earned for the imperial treasury were spent by Chu Heyi, she was stunned for a long time.

In other words, the money she had worked so hard to earn for the emperor ended up benefiting Chu Heyi's reputation? And she herself didn't even gain any good reputation?

It's unbelievable, unbelievable, and yet I have to believe it.

Chu Runxue narrowed her eyes and clenched her hands into fists. "Chu Heyi, I thought there was no hatred between you and me before, we just had different positions. Now... you really pissed me off."

She wants to plunder Chu Heyi, the Zhenbei Marquisate, and the Xie family’s wealth, right now!
