Seeing Xiao Yilin being so angry, Jing Yi advised: "There's no need for you to be too angry, there aren't a few moths anywhere. If you really want to go to Jiangzhou Mansion and see the real situation, I'm afraid if we go to Jiangzhou Mansion with such a big fanfare

No. If people know that you are going to make preparations to fool you, that would be too passive. How about we disguise ourselves.

Let's go separately from the guards, and don't get together. In this way, we can quietly go to Jiangzhou Mansion to see the most real situation. When you get the evidence, those corrupt officials will not be able to refute it, and you can also be justified.

to deal with them."

Xiao Yilin also thinks that the little girl's method is good, it can save time and effort, and can save a lot of time arguing with those moths.

"Then after the people escorting the winter wheat leave, we will disguise ourselves, divide into several teams and sneak into Jiangzhou Mansion quietly to see the situation."

Jing Yi thought of Xiao Yilin's sensitive status and said, "But as a prince, do you have the right to deal with the highest official of a state?"

Xiao Yilin smiled and said: "When I left the capital, my father gave me a decree, which allowed me to do things cheaply outside. My father gave me the right to deal with local officials."

Jing Yi felt relieved now, "The Emperor really thinks highly of you."

Jing Yi felt that the Jin emperor treated Xiao Yilin very well. Not only did he not shy away from Xiao Yilin in political matters, he also put him in high regard. When Xiao Yilin was still in Huizhou, the father and son often exchanged letters to discuss political affairs.

Moreover, the emperor seemed to care about Xiao Yilin very much in life. Xiao Yilin often received letters and rewards from his father, which showed that the relationship between father and son was very good.

Jing Yi looked at the victims who were sheltering on both sides of the road outside the carriage and sighed and said: "If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't live any longer, these victims wouldn't have left their homes. The key is that agricultural development is too backward and there is no ability to resist disasters.

.

Most of today's farmers rely on the weather for their livelihood. When the weather is good, God will reward them with food, and when droughts and floods occur, God will punish them. As everyone knows, many natural disasters can be resisted by humans. For example, Huizhou Prefecture vigorously promotes waterwheels and builds waterwheels.

Water conservancy can at least resist some droughts and prevent the fields from harvesting. At least this will not starve people to death or make people leave their homes to flee famine."

Xiao Yilin said: "Thankfully you invented such a good thing as the water wheel last year, otherwise our Huizhou Prefecture would also be affected by the drought."

Jing Yi said: "Human power is limited, but when everyone unites, the power is sometimes great. For example, fighting droughts and preventing floods, digging ditches and rivers can not only fight droughts, but also prevent floods in years with heavy rains."

The function of rivers and canals is to guide and dredge water flow and avoid causing floods.

You can also build artificial reservoirs to store water during normal times and supply water during droughts. The current technology of drilling wells is still too poor and the depth of wells is not deep enough. Otherwise, even if there is a drought, you can still use well water to irrigate the ground."

Xiao Yilin sighed and said: "What you said is too difficult. It is difficult to do it with human power. However, although it is difficult to dig rivers, canals, and build reservoirs, you can do it slowly. If you can't finish it in one year, you can do it in two years.

If it doesn't take two years, it can take five, six, ten, or eight years. As long as it is beneficial to future generations, it is worth doing."

Jing Yi nodded and said: "Indeed, if you don't do it, you will never succeed. For example, you can find someone to design a river channel, and then each place is responsible for its own river section. The court can allocate money to hire people to work in their spare time. If you do it little by little, there will always be something.

when finished.

You think, digging a river can not only store water and divert water, but also facilitate transportation. The river can also become a waterway. Some things can be transported by water. Cargo ships and passenger ships can travel in the river.

The court that makes money by using rivers for transportation can charge a certain percentage of taxes, or set up checkpoints in some places to collect tolls to slowly recover the money the court invested in river projects.

Once the capital is recovered by the imperial court, it will then be the net income of the imperial court. In this way, the imperial court will have another income, which is not a small one.

The people on both sides of the river can also make more money, such as fishing, ferrying at the ferry, small traders at the port, etc."

Xiao Yilin felt that the little girl in front of him could surprise him every time and inspire him every time. The little girl's mind was so smart, and the methods she came up with were all practical and novel. The little girl's intelligence was not inferior to Chao's at all.

Those important ministers.

Xiao Yilin grabbed Jing Yi's hand that was placed on the small table and held it tightly, "Jing Yan, you are really amazing and talented."

Jing Yi's little hand was held in Xiao Yilin's strong big hand and she couldn't pull it out, "Brother Xiao, let go quickly. It's not good for us two grown men to be seen holding hands."

She always felt that Xiao Yilin was taking advantage of her.

Xiao Yilin held the soft and boneless hand in her palm and couldn't bear to let go, and took the opportunity to say: "No one else will see it. Jing Yan, why are your hands so small and tender? They don't look like a man's hands at all."

Jing Yi was startled when he heard this. He quickly took out his hand and put it behind his back. He said with some bravado: "My hands don't look like men's hands anymore. It's just that I haven't done any work since I was a child, so I can take care of myself better."

Xiao Yilin stretched out his hand and said: "Look, my hands are almost as big as yours. My hands look so strong, and there are a lot of calluses on them. Your hands are so small, and you can touch a little of the calluses."

It's very tender and not rough at all. It's completely different from my hands."

Jing Yi curled her lips, "It's not like you who spend a lot of time training in the military camp and often practice martial arts with weapons in hand. I just play with the herbs to see if there are any cocoons. And I often wear gloves when I go into the mountains to collect herbs.

. Even men’s hands need to be well taken care of, no one is as rough as yours.”

Xiao Yilin looked at the little girl's pursed lips unconsciously and tried to hold back her laughter while she was trying to defend herself.

This little girl doesn't know how cute her pouting action is, just like coquettishness.

Xiao Yilin liked the little girl's unintentional display of closeness. This showed that he had quietly sneaked into the little girl's heart.

Xiao Yilin didn't accept it too soon, so as not to make the little girl anxious and have to worry about coaxing him.

Xiao Yilin and the others soon separated from the team escorting the winter wheat. They walked separately and arrived at a county town. They bought some clothes worn by ordinary people in the city and disguised themselves as businessmen, scholars, bookboys, porters, etc. and mingled there.

in the crowd.

Xiao Yilin pretended to be a businessman, Jing Yi pretended to be his servant. Gu Yu and Feng Zhi pretended to be Xiao Yilin's guards. Although the other guards pretended to be different identities, they were not far from Xiao Yilin. If Xiao Yilin had

They can also protect you from danger.
