In May, the weather gradually became hotter, and droughts appeared in various places. The treasury distributed money to repair wells in the plains, and used bamboo to connect water in the mountains, which slightly alleviated some droughts.But it also made Situ Yue hopeless about this year's summer harvest.

Situ Yue recruited the minister of the Ministry of Industry and asked him to select talents, go to various places to inspect the terrain, and build water canals, "we must ensure that the drought and flood will be harvested in the future."

For this reason, Situ Yue also made a plan to let the officials of the Ministry of Industry complete the inspection before the beginning of autumn, and check it out before the winter solstice. During the process, the government provided materials and asked the peasants to bring their own dry food.

In actual operation, the Ministry of Households provides money and food materials, the Ministry of Industry is responsible for the progress of the project, and the Ministry of Officials is responsible for monitoring the officials to prevent people from filling their own pockets.In the end, the three departments are responsible for inspection and acceptance together, waiting for the inspection of nature in the spring of the coming year, and irrigating both sides of the Strait in the summer of the coming year.

The idea is very good. In fact, during the implementation, there are always various things to face. At the Chongzheng Hall, the on-duty bachelor immediately said, "The time is too short. If we want to guarantee the construction period, we must mobilize all the civilians to dig The canal, so no one repaired the city walls, reinforced the city towers, and some sections were too long, even if all the local peasants were recruited, it would not be possible to complete the project. I have calculated here, digging the canal is easy to say, and transporting earthwork is difficult. There are always old and weak people in the middle school, which slow down the working hours. When digging canals, how to compensate for the occupation of cultivated land, and what should be done if some people spend money to avoid working? Let some areas build canals first, and the surrounding counties send civilians to help, and next winter, the places that have not been repaired will be dug, so it will take less than three to five years..."

"Order the Minister of the Household Department and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to deal with this matter. How to dispatch manpower and Qian Ding, let the two jointly give me a statement. I will deal with it after reading it."

This incident was recorded, and the dialogue between the monarch and his ministers was clearly recorded in the memorandum.The matter entered the next stage.In the Chongzheng Hall, everyone began to discuss another matter.In the evening, Cheng Yi hurriedly handed over the booklet and entered the palace, saying that he had something important to report back.

"Brother Huang asked my younger brother to pay attention, there are clues...Brother Huang, please calm down. This matter is a bit unimaginable."

"Say."

"Back then, the emperor's uncle, Crown Prince Xianmin, heard that a woman was beautiful..."

"He got that woman, is she Ke'er's mother?"

"......Yes."

"Then, Shui Rong's father came back with revenge, didn't he?"

"...Yes, but Brother Huang, this woman is not the main cause, hey, how can I tell you."

"Speak carefully, don't miss any details."

"The water-soluble father is a blood brother to our emperor. Yes, yes, this is unbelievable. This is simply a bad relationship. How should I tell you." Cheng Yi paused, rubbing his face took two.

"Still starting from the Taizong dynasty. Taizong was in his prime back then, but Taizong liked beauties, but all beauties in the world are poisonous. Except for a few princesses born to unfavorable concubines, there was not a single male in the palace. Taizong And I don't believe that it was done by his beauties, who issued edicts every year to recruit good families from all over the country to enter the palace, either as concubines or slaves. That's how our great-grandmother, Empress Qu, entered the palace."

"Brother Yi, I know very well about my family affairs, so you can focus on the key points."

"The point is, there was a woman surnamed Qi who entered the palace with my great-grandmother back then. This woman can be considered a rich girl. Of course, our great-grandmother was not as petty as her at the time, and she was favored when she entered the palace. For this reason , made the high-ranking women feel uncomfortable. Some people made things difficult for her every three days. For this reason, she slipped three times... Someone pushed out our great-grandmother in order to divide her favor. What I found out is When our great-grandmother was pregnant with our grandfather, it was found out to be a boy. Taizong was overjoyed. The concubine surnamed Qi also secretly found out a boy, but she didn't want to say it. She quietly gave birth to the boy, and the child was born, so naturally she couldn't continue to cover this matter. At that time, a noble concubine hated her so much that she put the blame on our great-grandmother and caused people to poison the child. Actually, the surname is Qi The concubine's child was not poisoned to death, but was sent out of the palace because he was too weak. At that time, Taizong had already noticed the rebelliousness of the king with a different surname. In addition, there was no heir in the Beijing Palace, so Taizong secretly met with Beijing at that time. Wang made this child the new king later on, that is, Shui Rong’s grandfather. But Shui Rong’s grandfather felt that he was not qualified to compete for the throne because of our great-grandmother and son. Naturally, he hated our lineage. When Shui Rong’s father In this generation, the hatred is firmly remembered."

Situ Yue was not interested in the romantic affairs a few generations ago, "Then how did they murder my father?"

"Put poison into the well... This kind of poison makes the whole body weak and gradually weak. This poison is not thrown at once, but a little bit at a time, gradually increasing, starting from the time when Princess Qin's mother entered the palace, Casting once every three days, no one notices, the accumulation time is long, plus the poisonous gas brought by the fire burning wood that night, the whole body is weak and unable to move naturally. And... the late emperor Not working hard has resulted in no one living."

After Situ Yue finished speaking, he glanced at Situ Yue. Situ Yue thought to himself that it was not only the late emperor who did not work hard, but also all the people at that time who hindered each other. At the same time, no one wanted to keep the prince alive, which led to this result.

"Is the news reliable?"

"The younger brother's people obtained the evidence at that time from the secret compartment of the study room." After speaking, he took out the letter from his arms.Situ Yue opened the pages with a handkerchief and read them, and there were only a few words in the letters that were vague. If it was really water-soluble and denied it, there was no way to punish the crimes in these letters.Situ Yue glanced at Cheng Yi, told him not to tell the emperor about it, and let him go down with a smile.

There is no point in further investigation. The result given by Cheng Yi is almost the same, but it is still full of loopholes.This result should be part of the truth known to the four kings.What role did the four kings and the three kings of the past play here? The living four kings refused to say, and the dead three kings couldn't express it. There is also the late emperor who did not work hard... Situ relied more on On the back of the chair, carefully identify these things.

Qiao Qiao's marriage was finally on the agenda. Empress Zhao changed her clothes and came to Situ Yue with a plate of snacks.

Situ Yue finished eating a plate of dim sum, and said bluntly, "My girl is still young, why don't you worry about these things and check your luggage, we will live in Nanyuan for more than three months this year. Let someone clean it out in advance, nothing else is necessary No matter, let’s tidy up the emperor’s bedroom first.”

When a girl grows up, she always wants to get married. Empress Zhao now has more and more the temperament of an old wife in the folk, the kind who dares to talk back to the old man.

"We, Qiao Qiao, are already thirteen, and Fu Yuan, who is as old as her, has already started seeing each other. Don't worry about good boys now. When it's time to get married, all good boys have already been picked."

"Haven't you heard? The emperor's daughter is not worried about marrying."

Queen Zhao was so pissed off, "You can do it, it's hard to be a married woman and marry. This is a matter of heaven and earth that cannot be changed. I have a few people here. Please take a look." After speaking, she held a list in both hands and placed it Dessert plate.

Situ Yue refused to look at it, his eyes just didn't look at the paper.

Empress Zhao had no choice but to pick them up and read them to her one by one. In fact, Empress Zhao's cultural attainments were much higher than that of Situ Gao, and she could usually compose a poem, but Situ Yue didn't know whether Empress Zhao's poems were good or not. Queen Kuaren also showed the highest level.

"This is the nephew of the Crown Princess Jia's natal family. I heard that he has an amazing literary talent and a good conversation..."

"I hate scholars the most."

Queen Zhao had no choice but to read the next one. "This one, you must know it. It's your nephew Mi Tong. How about it? When we arrive at Mi's house, Princess Qin is your younger sister. Treat Qiao Qiao in our family as if she were her own daughter..."

"The combination of cousins ​​and sisters will not bear fruit."

"You..." Empress Zhao was so angry that she couldn't breathe, she almost rolled her eyes and passed out. The nurse behind her hurriedly patted her on the back. A word, now he dare not say a word, patting Queen Zhao on the back is still not good, Situ Yue immediately went up and pinched Queen Zhao's people.

Empress Zhao was crying at that time, Situ Yue took the paper and glanced at it, all the candidates on it were relatives, they either called her uncle or her cousin.Situ Yue didn't think he had made a mistake, so he pinched the paper and said to Empress Zhao, "Caiyun, it's not about my curse. Children born to cousins ​​are usually flawed, so bad that they don't look like human beings..."

Queen Zhao immediately fell into the arms of her wet nurse.It was useless for Situ Yue to pinch people, so he directly called the doctor over.

Looking at the medical girls coming in and out of the main hall, Situ Yue held the piece of paper and rolled it up a few balls, and Zhu Dan, who had finished class, stood next to her, "Father, what are you holding?"

"The list of consorts drawn up by your mother for your sister."

After seeing it, Zhu Dan gritted his teeth secretly, ready to find a chance to beat them one by one. "Then who do you and the queen mother like?"

"It's because your father doesn't like anyone, that your mother fainted out of anger."

A smile appeared on Zhu Dan's face, "My son also doesn't like anyone."

The two looked at each other and smiled.
