Liu Yanhuan and Zhang Kewei sat in the study for a long time before Shuyi returned from the palace.Seeing Liu Yanhuan, Shuyi raised her eyebrows on one side, slightly surprised.In her impression, although Liu Yanhuan is not very old, she is very mature and steady, and she has rules and regulations in doing things, and she is very independent, not like a character who will come to her for help.One of the reasons why Shuyi has not reused Liu Yanhuan so far is that she is not sure if Liu Yanhuan can really stand on her side.She didn't seem to have anything that could hold Liu Yanhuan."
Sister Liu visited today, what is the matter?"
Liu Yanhuan bowed and said, "The courtiers are here to ask the princess for advice." ”"Sister Liu is polite, just say something bluntly."
Liu Yanhuan took out a thick pile of paper from the brocade bag on his waist and spread it in front of Shuyi, this is the waterway map of the capital to the south of the Yangtze River.She pointed to a red route on the paper and said: "This is the road of the imperial court's luck, and it is also the road that many merchants must take."
But there are many bandits on this road, who specialize in robbing merchant ships for a living.Liu Yanhuan disdainfully saw that why couldn't he dig a canal connecting the north and the south, so that all ships could go from the country in the future and avoid the seamen?
”The policy that Liu Yanhuan said was mentioned in the previous life, but due to the successive wars in Eastern Liao, the treasury had already been emptied, and this policy was also over.What she said today is very shallow, and she just wants to throw bricks and lead the way and open up the conversation for her own purposes.Sure enough, Shuyi fell into deep thought when she heard this.Although the construction of the river is laborious and costly, in the long run, if the river is built, not to mention that the north-south travel will be more convenient, and mutual trade will be more frequent, she can almost imagine the prosperity along the river.Moreover, if the river channel is perfected, it can also solve the big problem of summer flooding in most areas, and will not affect the crop harvest.Shuyi was surprised that this proposal would come from Liu Yanhuan's mouth.Although she only said it roughly, at first glance it sounded like a fantasy, and it was not very feasible.But how many great achievements originate from a person's unrealistic fantasies!
Shuyi looked up at her and asked seriously, "Then Sister Liu has thought about where to start digging?"
”Liu Yanhuan shook his head, "Not yet, where to dig the least amount of money and improve water conservancy, you need to consider all capable people."
The courtiers have only come today to ask His Highness for advice. ”Shuyi smiled, but there was a hint of sincerity in her smile.Compared with treating Liu Yanhuan as a rich vase before, now she really thinks that Liu Yanhuan has something."
Sister Liu told me about this, but what are your plans?"
Liu Yanhuan saw today's topic and sat down."
The courtiers want to go to the south and inspect the terrain for themselves."
Shuyi looked at her in surprise, this project is not small, even if this proposal is submitted to the cabinet, and then approved by various departments, and finally finalized to send people to construction, I am afraid it will take a year and a half.Not to mention that there is a high probability that this project will die at the moment it is presented."
Do you think this palace can get the ministries to agree to this project?""
There is nothing that Your Highness wants to do, and it can't be done."
Liu Yanhuan said firmly, she felt that Shuyi was a strange woman in her previous life, but unfortunately, as a king, she was not ruthless enough, and finally lost in the slightest hesitation of family affection.She hopes that Shuyi can be more ruthless, at least on the road to winning the heir, she can protect herself.She can go farther, higher.Shuyi was silent for a moment, "You're going to the south, on the one hand, for this, and on the other hand?"
”"The courtiers are pregnant."
Liu Yanhuan said bluntly, "But I don't want the people in the General's Mansion to know about the existence of this child." ”Shuyi and Zhang Kewei were both surprised for a moment, and immediately felt that it was right, with the complicated relationship between Liu Yanhuan and Pei Yuan, they would have to reconcile with Pei Ming in the future, and they must not have a child here, otherwise they would not be able to leave at all."
When are you going to go?""
I have already delivered a letter to my hometown, and when someone from my hometown comes, I will leave Beijing."
Shuyi estimated that it would take two months to go from Kyoto to Huizhou, and she could recruit talents during this time, and then go south with Liu Yanhuan.No matter what the six departments say, as long as she comes up with specific data and the best drawings, she believes that the emperor will be moved.Because he wanted to be the first emperor of the ages so much, if the canal construction could help his great cause, he would not hesitate.When Liu Yanhuan returned to the house, she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Mama Pei standing in the courtyard kindly."
Why is Grandma here, but Grandmother has orders?"
Mama Pei said with a smile: "I'll send some medicinal materials to the eldest young lady to replenish the body, which can be stewed in soup on weekdays to strengthen your body." ”Liu Yan thanked her, but with the fear of last time, she didn't dare to eat the things sent by Rongshoutang.She asked Mama Luo to put things away and find an opportunity to give them to Luo's in the future.Pei Jian's and etiquette, Luo's didn't want to do it before.But Pei Jian's life is good, and now it is recorded in her name, she is a concubine, and she wants to go to the family tree, what Mrs.
Pei means is to make a big deal and get back the face she lost because of Pei Qingyun before.It was also known to the Zhongyi Bofu that they did not treat them favorably in the General's Mansion.Therefore, Pei Jian's birthday was in mid-June, but in late May, the General's Mansion began to get busy."
All the posts have been sent down?""
It's all sent, even the left capital Yushi Mansion has been sent."
Liu Yanhuan nodded, she asked Pei Shunxi and the big housekeeper to take charge of all kinds of purchases, and picked a few simple jobs to do.On this day, Liu Yanhuan was thinking about being lazy and not doing things, and that matter came to the door.The third wife, Zhang, took Pei Song into the Autumn Tea Courtyard, because of the last cook's incident, Zhang's heart still secretly remembered Liu Yanhuan's account."
Third aunt, is this out for a walk?"
Liu Yanhuan looked at Pei Song, and the fat powder on the other party's face was covered with a thick layer, thinking that it was to cover the scar on his face.Pei Song touched Liu Yanhuan's gaze and quickly lowered his head, not wanting people to see her face."
Ouch, how can you scatter so far."
Zhang said bluntly, "I came today to ask you, you took Miss Biao and Shunxi to take care of the housekeeper some time ago, can you also bring us Song'er now?"
”"What kind of brick is she?
Where do you need to move?
Can anyone stuff her?"
Song'er has also reached the age of discussing relatives, and I want to let her learn the things of housekeeping.But I can't figure out this account, isn't teaching her a bad child?
I thought, if you are free, take her with you. ”Liu Yanhuan's eyes moved slightly, "That's right, after a while, it's a note and a ceremony, and grandmother's intention is to do a big deal, just let Pei Song and Shunxi practice together." ”When Zhang heard this, he smiled.I can't interfere with my hands now, and it's the same with my daughter!"
Nacheng, in this way, I'll let Song'er learn from you here today!"
After speaking, he pushed Pei Song in front of Liu Yanhuan."
But you have to study hard with your sister-in-law!"
Liu Yanhuan looked at Pei Song's appearance and hooked the corners of his lips.
