Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Mu Yunyao listened to Qi Yun's words and looked at the hydrological map of Linhe, with complicated thoughts in her heart.

King Jin has been looking at her secretly, and a deep emotion flashes in his eyes from time to time, he doesn't know what he is thinking.

King Yu couldn't help but said: "Third Uncle, if there is really no other way, let's move some of the people away first, otherwise, once the summer flood comes, the consequences will be disastrous."

"It is difficult to leave the homeland, and it will take more manpower and material resources to relocate the people. This method cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary."

King Yu gritted his teeth secretly, and glanced at King Ling who had nothing to do with him: "Brother, I think you look confident, but what good solution did you think of?"

King Ling sneered: "Isn't my father entrusting this matter to Lord Qi? This king has no research on the construction of river embankments, and I can't see why. Lord Lao Qi is in control of everything." Hmph, Looking at this appearance, Qi Yun has no ability to build the dam before Xia Xun comes. I am afraid that he will not get the credit for it, but will become a sinner who is scolded by everyone. At that time, the good reputation of Wei Guohou will be ruined in one day. up.

King Yu raised the corners of his lips: "Then I will report this to my father, and let my father see what my brother is capable of."

"You..." Ling Wang was angry in his heart, "I am your elder brother, is this how you talk to your imperial brother?"

"Brother Huang, you should wait until you return to Beijing to pay attention to these etiquettes with me. Here, the embankment is the most important thing, and the people come first. If Brother Da Huang feels that he can't help you, you can go back to the capital first, and save it here." It's an eyesore."

"You...you are simply disrespectful?"

"Brother Huang, go and sue my father in front of the emperor!" Yu Wang now sees that King Ling and King Jin are not pleasing to the eye, if he is not concerned about their identities, he must find a way to beat them up.

King Yue remained silent the entire time, seeing Mu Yunyao staring at the hydrographic map, he couldn't help asking softly: "Yao'er, what did you see?"

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly: "I can't tell, but I just feel that the current Linjiang river seems to be too curved. Once the river bends, the embankment will be difficult to repair."

Qi Yun suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and looked at Mu Yunyao with burning eyes: "Princess, did you just say that the river is curved?"

"Yes, but is there something wrong?"

Qi Yun's eyes lit up, and he took the hydrological map to check it himself: "The river is curved, the river is curved... If you want to build the dam as soon as possible, then it is better to cut the bend and straighten it! Yes, cut the bend and straighten it!"

Qi Yun couldn't help laughing, stepped forward to salute Mu Yunyao and thanked him: "Thank you, princess, for your advice, I know what to do."

Mu Yunyao hurriedly got up to avoid it: "What is Master Qi doing, I just said something casually, I didn't expect to be able to help."

"The princess said something unintentionally, but it made Qi suddenly realize that this credit must be reported to the Emperor Ming."

"Master Qi is too polite, I can't help you much."

After Qi Yun got up, he quickly summoned the men on the river work, braved the heavy rain and rushed into the embankment again to study how to proceed.

Wang Yu watched his third uncle leave in a hurry again, and was a little bit dumbfounded for a while. The third uncle is best at studying water conservancy. He clearly got the honor in the second place in the first place, but he gave up being an official in Beijing and devoted himself to river engineering. However, my grandfather indulged me, saying that I could serve the country anywhere, so I let him go, but I couldn't see him all year round.

King Ling shook his sleeves and stood up: "Since I'm fine, I'll go down and rest first." After speaking, he went out directly.

King Jin stood up and looked at Mu Yunyao: "Yunyao's mind is really clever. According to me, there are so many women in Kyoto, but none of them can compare to you."

"There are mountains beyond the mountains, and there are people beyond the people. The third uncle's words are too exaggerated."

King Jin smiled, and turned to King Yue: "Fourth brother, I am also worried about the condition of the embankment, and I want to go to the embankment to have a look. I wonder if fourth brother can send someone to guide the way?"

King Yu stepped forward and said, "Third brother is probably confused. My third uncle is in charge of everything here. If you want to go to the embankment, just ask me. I'll find someone to guide you. Let's go."

King Jin withdrew his gaze: "In this way, there will be Brother Lao."

In the front hall, only Mu Yunyao and King Yue were left.

"Fourth Master, what do you mean His Royal Highness Prince Jin?"

King Yue's eyes were deep: "I don't know where he sensed something wrong. These days, he has been sending people to stare at me, and secretly investigating my relationship with Niyunfang and Buxianlou. It's really a headache. .”

Mu Yunyao's eyes flashed full of coldness: "Fourth Master, there is one thing I have never thought about. You said that the previous salt tax tax silver was replaced by clay lumps mixed with iron sand. What about tax money?"

"I've been asking people to track me down, but I have no clue." So much money seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no trace of it at all.

Mu Yunyao couldn't help but speculate: "Could it have already been transported to the capital and not in the south of the Yangtze River?"

"It's extremely difficult to transport so much silver to Beijing. No matter how capable the King of Jin is, there's no way to transport them away silently, unless..." King Yue suddenly raised his eyes, the deep eyes seemed to be star-studded. Nightfall, "Unless we guessed wrong before, those fake tax bills were not made when the salt tax case broke out, but from the very beginning, the salt merchants used fake tax bills to deceive the world. As for the ones that should really be paid The silver taels were not exchanged for tax silver at all, but were sent directly to Kyoto in the form of silver bills."

Mu Yunyao's thoughts sank: "If this is the case, I'm afraid it will not be very easy to check. Several million taels of silver are very heavy, but millions of taels of silver bills are hard to detect if you find a random place to hide them."

King Yue frowned slightly: "That's true."

Mu Yunyao thought for a moment, then suddenly raised her eyebrows: "Fourth Lord, now that the princes are all in the south of the Yangtze River, it should be much easier to do things in the capital, right?"

"Yao'er, you mean...a two-pronged approach?"

"For this matter, I spent a lot of money and money, and I have to find a way to earn some back. Fourth Master asked the people in the capital to check and see if they could find any clues. It is best to Start the investigation from the bank." If Jin Wang really got so many banknotes, he will definitely exchange some of the silver, and it is best to intervene from the banker.

"okay, I get it."

A fast horse rushed to the capital quietly taking advantage of the night.

Just as Mu Yunyao fell asleep, she heard noises outside: "What's wrong?"

Si Qin walked in quickly: "Miss Hui, His Royal Highness King Jin injured his arm in order to save a civilian who fell into the water, and now he is bleeding profusely. The imperial doctors have already rushed over."
