Quick Wear: The Cold God is infinitely fond of the host

"Wei Yuanzhuo, do you think you are a gentleman?"

Qin Ji sneered, with a deep look of disgust in his eyes.

"I have never said that I am a good person." Seeing the other party calling him by his name, the latter's expression turned cold.

"I have never forgotten that my father was ill in bed, and you looked at me with such a look on your face."

I vaguely recall the past, the picture is gradually becoming blurred, but my mood at that time was extremely sad.

"You are just a dying man, and living is just a waste of time."

Wei Yuanzhuo spoke in a light tone, as if death was insignificant to him.

"I have never given up my suspicion of you in the past, but I didn't make it clear for the sake of face."

Qin Ji flicked his sleeves and left.

Although he was still young at that time, he already knew that every step in the palace backyard was fraught with danger.

The world is full of thorns and people's hearts are really hard to predict.

The emperor did not think highly of him at first, but later he stood out step by step through his own extraordinary efforts.

The process is not easy, and growing up is as painful as pulling tendons and peeling bones.

It was after a palace dinner that my father fell ill and never recovered.

According to the imperial physician's inference, it was probably caused by some kind of chronic poison that had penetrated deep into the bone marrow and was incurable.

At that time, all the criticism was directed at the Regent because Wei Yuanzhuo was alone with him for some time after the dinner.

It's just that there is no evidence, so it can't really explain anything.

Moreover, after the passage of time, this incident has long faded from the public eye and is no longer remembered.

But Qin Ji always kept this matter in mind.

Wei Yuanzhuo was ambitious and was the most likely person to have poisoned the person.

Staring at Qin Ji's receding back, Wei Yuanzhuo smiled contemptuously.

He never took this so-called emperor seriously.

Wei Yuanzhuo always takes the long term into consideration and plans ten steps ahead before taking one step.

It was indeed his fault that the late emperor passed away, but who could blame his brother for blocking his ambitions?

Even fathers and sons can be killed, let alone brothers?

At that time, he began to lay out his plans, and he had to play this game step by step carefully.

And now...

The time will soon be ripe.

He must get everything in this world.

In order to achieve his goal, he is willing to sacrifice everything.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was bright.

Quan Si touched the palm lines of the man in front of him and frowned slightly.

"Lord Cao, please be careful recently."

"Please explain clearly, Master Imperial Master." The latter was shocked.

"The center of your forehead is slightly dark, and there is a faint sense of hostility between your eyebrows. It must be that you have been targeted by some villains recently."

He withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes and straightened his sleeves, "Especially money, you must keep a close eye on it, otherwise it will be easy to lose it."

"Thank you for your guidance, sir!" Right Prime Minister Cao Yu was delighted and quickly winked at the servant beside him.

The latter understood, and soon came trotting over with a treasure chest full of gold, silver and jewels in his hands.

"Although these gold jewels are not priceless, they are still worth several thousand taels of gold. I hope the Imperial Master will not despise them."

Ever since Quan Si displayed his extraordinary talent at the morning court last time, Right Prime Minister Cao Yu has taken a new look at him.

He admires talents like Quan Si very much. Although he is young, he is never arrogant.

So after a few interactions, Quan Si would occasionally help him tell his fortune.

It did help him avoid a lot of disasters.

"Thank you, Lord Cao, it's just a small favor." Although he said polite words, Quan Si was not slow in collecting the money.

He glanced at Chuntao behind him, and the girl immediately understood and hurriedly took the treasure box from the servant.

Chuntao stared at the jewels in her hand that shone with golden light and wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of her mouth.

Sure enough, if you follow the young master, you will definitely have meat to eat!

Cao Yu: ...

Are you really not being polite to him?

Cao Yu stroked his white beard and felt his heart bleeding.

So much money was given away at once. I don’t know how long it will take to save it up again.

He was also the prime minister, but he was not as rich as the left prime minister Chen Po (no one knows where he got the money from).

He is devoted to the country, honest and upright, and cares about the people. He is a good official in the eyes of the world.

Whenever he received his salary, he would save it, donate most of it to the poor people, and keep some for himself for food.

Quan Si had important matters to attend to, so he pretended to leave.

Unexpectedly, Cao Yu called out to him, "Master Imperial Master, please stay."

"I wonder if you have anything else to say? Please feel free to ask."

Quan Si was still very polite to the old man. After all, the other party had spoken for him at the morning court.

"It is like this. Yesterday I received a letter from a village official in Morisawa Village, which is located on the southwest border."

(The Lili is equivalent to the modern village head, who is mainly responsible for the grassroots work of local administration.)

Quan Si listened quietly.

"For some unknown reason, there has been no rain for two consecutive months. The people are suffering from the drought."

Cao Yu was silent for a moment, took out the letter and handed it to Quan Si.

He thought about it over and over again last night but couldn't come up with a perfect solution. He was obviously stumped by this matter.

Today, the Imperial Master happened to visit the mansion, so I thought of mentioning this matter to see how it could be resolved.

"Please review the contents of this letter, Grand Master."

The latter took it and read it.

After quickly scanning the ten lines, the purpose of the letter became clear.

The people of Nasensha Village have been relying on growing crops for their livelihood all year round. However, there has been a drought in the past two months and the crops have not grown well.

The people were hungry and thirsty, but no one knew how to solve the problem, so the local officials wrote letters to ask the Shengjing officials for help.

"Have you reported this to His Majesty?" Quan Si closed the letter.

"Yesterday's letter arrived too late, so I am sorry to bother Your Majesty. I have just drafted a memorial and sent it over as fast as I can."

"Yeah." Quan Si responded indifferently, lowering his eyes in thought.

He raised his eyes again, his eyes bright, "I have a plan."

"Please speak, sir." Cao Yu's face was serious and he looked at him with eyes full of respect.

The only person who could be respected so highly by the prime minister of the current dynasty, apart from the emperor on the throne, was probably Quan Si.

"There are many reasons for drought, which may be natural climate factors or human factors."

Quan Si stroked his chin with his fingertips, his eyes narrowed slightly, "The specific reason can only be known through on-site investigation."

"Natural factors?" Cao Yu was obviously confused by this unfamiliar word.

Quan Si was not surprised. After all, the world's climate-related research was not particularly complete.

"Don't worry, my lord. I will discuss the solution to this matter in detail with His Majesty."

"That's great," Cao Yu said, finally feeling relieved. "I have never seen anyone as smart as the Imperial Master."

"You are so knowledgeable, brave and resourceful. It is really commendable!"

Quan Si smiled faintly in response, "Lord Cao, you are too kind."

He is proficient in Feng Shui, Yin and Yang, and naturally knows astronomy and geography.

Estimating that the time was about up, Quan Si took the letter and left.

We got on the carriage and headed towards the palace.
