Chapter 476 Extra 1 The Daily Life of the Emperor and Empress: Canal
After Zhuo Zhen's bizarre incident, Zhuo Lingchu immediately arranged for the emperor's brothers and sisters who were about to come of age to leave the palace and establish a mansion with their mothers and concubines.
Often when dealing with this kind of thing, Zhuo Lingchu felt more and more that his decision was the right one. In this life, he and Jun'er only had a pair of twins.
Ruidi's seeder was really here to torture him, and would only create all kinds of difficulties and hardships in his life.
But fortunately, there is an owner for all the injustices. All the money used to settle Zhuo Lingchu's brothers and sisters came from Emperor Rui's private treasury. If this wastes money and people again, Zhuo Lingchu would like to remember the names of those brothers and sisters. The restless younger brothers and sisters were demoted to common people.
......
The weather is getting warmer and it rains more and more.
In the past few years, there has been significantly more rain than in previous years. During the rainy season, there will always be floods in some cities, making the local people miserable. This situation not only occurs in Xichang, but also in Dashuo.
When Mu Yun first returned to the capital and became Princess Yunlan, Emperor Pingren was worried about the floods in Dashuo.
There is a large river that runs through Xichang and Dashuo from west to east, named Cangjiang. The Cangjiang River has abundant water, rapid and steep water flow, and many tributaries. During the rainy season every year, floods often occur along the coast. In mild cases, it affects crops and fields, and in severe cases, it destroys people's houses, causing people to be displaced and diseases are rampant.
The management of Cangjiang requires joint management by the two countries, which are located in the upstream and downstream areas.
Previously, the two countries were incompatible with each other and had no intention of jointly controlling floods in the Cangjiang River. During the rainy season every year, floods became the main issue in the court. Since Zhuo Ling first ascended the throne, he often communicated privately with his father-in-law to discuss Cangjiang management plans.
After many discussions, the two sides decided to develop a new canal across the two countries. In this way, not only can the gates be opened to release water to relieve floods when the water flow of the Cangjiang River is large, but also the merchant ship trade between the two countries can be opened on the new river with gentle water flow, thus strengthening the exchanges between the two countries. .
Developing a canal is so simple. It requires not only on-the-spot investigation of the topography and landforms, but also in-depth study of local people's livelihood and the selection of the most economical and suitable route for development. In addition, such a large project benefits the country and the people, but it costs a lot. Because it involves a wide range, officials at all levels must be strictly prevented from taking advantage of it. Thinking of this, Zhuo Lingchu couldn't help but have a headache.
Mu Yun's brain thought of a way after thousands of thoughts.
"Husband, how about you sit in the court while I leave the palace to supervise the construction all the way? The canal is developed from the upstream and spreads all the way to the northeast. Along the way, I not only inspect the construction of the canal along the way, but I can also finally walk back to Dashuo, taking Dandan and Ling The spirit meets Dashuo’s relatives.”
As soon as Mu Yun said these words, Zhuo Lingchu immediately hugged Mu Yun's waist, buried his head in her waist and rubbed her, like a clingy big dog.
"Jun'er, I don't want you to leave me. If you leave, you won't be able to come back for at least half a year. How do you expect me to live?"
Although the one Zhuo Lingchu trusted the most was Mu Yun.
He was not at ease with officials from the Ministry of Industry and local officials at all levels. He could not think of a powerful official in the DPRK who was suitable to take on such an important task.
They are incorruptible in the capital, but if they go to a place where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, they are not allowed to do anything that damages the majesty of the imperial court.
Zhuo Lingchu wanted to ensure that nothing went wrong during his years in office, leaving a solid and indestructible foundation for Dandan and Lingling.
But......
Mu Yun advised: "Husband, it doesn't take that long. In this section of the canal in Xichang, husband can inspect it with us when the government is not busy. In the downstream section of Dashuo, I have less rights to exercise." At that time, I will just take Dandan and Lingling to visit relatives and tell my father the true story of the journey. I won’t be away from my husband for too long.”
Zhuo Lingchu knew that Mu Yun was coming from his point of view and was compromising with him. When he was moved, he was cruel to himself, "Jun'er, you have been away from your relatives in Dashuo for a long time, and they are all looking forward to you taking care of them." Take Dandan and Lingling to go back and have a look. I won’t rush you. When you have enough time, you can go back to Xichang.”
Mu Yun's eyes were red, and she was moved by Zhuo Lingchu's sensibility. Then she heard Zhuo Lingchu say: "The worst is that my emperor won't do it, and I will go to Dashuo to find you. After all, my father-in-law will protect me. No one dares to bully our family." Just say it.”
Mu Yun pinched her eyebrows and said, "It won't happen. I'll stay with Dandan and Lingling for two months at most, okay?"
Zhuo Lingchu thought about the calculation in his mind, "Two months, sixty days, seven hundred and twenty hours..."
Mu Yun held Zhuo Lingchu's face and blocked his plaintive mouth with her lips...
After a sleepless night, the bed curtains shook all spring night...
In April of the second year of Shenghe, Emperor Shenghe announced that the groundbreaking for the "Changshuo" canal would begin. The empress was given the highest authority, replacing Emperor Shenghe who was in Xijing and Emperor Pingren who was in the upper capital to guide the country. In the name of the highest authority, she supervised the progress of the construction of the Xincang Canal and whether the earmarked funds were actually used.
When the Xichang courtiers heard that the Queen had been entrusted with important tasks by His Majesty, they were not surprised and did not feel anything was wrong. After all, since Emperor Shenghe ascended the throne, it is nothing new for the Queen to help His Majesty with state affairs.
Moreover, the Empress is not only the mother of Xichang Muyi Tianxia, but also the most beloved Princess Yunlan of Emperor Ren of Dashuo. Looking at the whole world, there is no other person who is more suitable to supervise the construction of the "Changshuo" Grand Canal that runs through the two countries.
Some courtiers expressed their admiration for their little empress taking the initiative to take on such an important responsibility, especially the women among the people, who expressed their admiration for the empress. In this world, women can dare to be the first in the world.
In May of the second year of Shenghe, Queen Mu set off with the young Crown Prince and Princess Lingyue. Emperor Shenghe temporarily handed over the government affairs to a few powerful ministers and went north in person, which showed that the construction of the canal was a top priority in political affairs. Heavy.
In fact, those who know the strong feelings between the emperor and the empress know that Emperor Sheng He temporarily put aside the affairs of the court, but he was reluctant to leave the palace for the time being.
Brothers and sisters Dandan and Lingling were one year old and could withstand the fatigue of traveling. They were so excited along the way that their big eyes couldn't see enough.
By the way, Queen Mother Shang also traveled with them. Queen Mother Shang had never left Xijing in the first half of her life. Ever since she opened her depressed heart, she also wanted to go out and see the world. With this opportunity, Mu Yun naturally invited her to go north together.
Although Gao Ningxin also wanted to go back to Dashuo together, she was in the third month of her pregnancy and her fetus was unstable, so she couldn't overwork herself, so she had no choice but to give up.
As Forsythia's wedding was approaching, Mu Yun also left her in Xijing and prepared a generous dowry for her to make up for Mu Yun's regret that she could not attend her wedding in person.
