When Xie Changan heard that a "living shrine" was built for him and Jiang Li, he was speechless.

"Isn't it too ostentatious? Your achievements are greater than your master's. Be careful of being impeached by the censors."

Jiang Li rolled her eyes at him and said, "I worship the God who 'slashed the natural barrier with one sword', not you, the great general who conquered the south!"

Xie Changan didn't dare to say anything. Can we not bring this up? Please let it go!

Jiang Li thought about it, then picked up his pen and wrote a letter to Nangong Qinghe, reporting the matter of the "Shenjun Temple" truthfully and asking how the matter should be handled.

Nangong Qinghe was quite helpless when he received the letter. A'li, don't you trust me?

He immediately issued an edict to name the Temple of the God built spontaneously by the local people as the "Shefeng Temple of the God". Now A'li should be relieved.

Of course, this is a follow-up.

At this time, the Jing'an Prince's Mansion was holding a full-month banquet for the twins, a boy and a girl.

Xie Buli and Xie Buqi were wearing small red brocade clothes and had a jade pendant hanging on their chests, one with "Buli" engraved on it and the other with "Buqi" engraved on it. They were the defensive jade talismans that Jiang Li gave to Xie Changan that year.

The twins, a boy and a girl, had picturesque features and were as pretty as jade. They looked like a golden boy and a jade girl, and were held in the arms of Duke Dingguo, who was beaming with joy.

The three of them, father and son, looked like they were carved from the same mold, and all the guests were amazed at their appearance.

Shen Muchun smiled quietly and said, "These two children look so much like you. No one will gossip about you two anymore."

When the news that Prince Jing'an had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, reached the capital, many people still gossiped about it behind their backs.

After all, who in the upper class circles didn't know about Xie Changan's reputation as the "Eunuch of Heaven"?

"I heard that the current emperor and Prince Jing'an knew each other when they were young, and the emperor was deeply in love with her and could not forget her. Could it be..."

"Be careful with your words! The dates don't match. The twins, a boy and a girl, of Prince Jing'an must have been conceived during the march. They definitely couldn't have been conceived by His Majesty."

"Hey, whose seed could it be?"

"Who knows? After all, the barracks are full of men, hehehehe..."

Xie Changan was far away in Dali and although he was furious, he couldn't stop them from hearing such disgusting rumors.

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Why get so angry? When you return to the capital, take the twins out for a walk and the rumors will be dispelled."

Shen Muchun and Mo Qillang agreed with this.

Xie Changan couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that the twins looked like him, otherwise, the little cat slave would have been splashed with countless dirty water.

The Prince Jing'an's Palace received another wave of gifts, especially those sent from the capital. Several large carts were brought in, filling up the front yard of the palace.

The three sisters-in-law of the Jiang family all sent valuable gifts. Even Old Madam Jiang and Jiang Xiuyuan gave two big red envelopes to the twins.

The one who gave the most gifts was naturally Liao Wuyong, who was promoted to grandfather. When he heard that his precious daughter had safely given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, who looked very much like Xie Changan, he was so happy that he couldn't sleep for several nights. He collected several carts of things and asked people to send them to Dali as soon as possible.

The car was filled with food, daily necessities, clothes, and even toys for the twins.

Jiang Li was in a state of great headache. They couldn't stay in Dali for long. After the emperor's southern tour was over, they would also have to return to Beijing with him. Then, wouldn't they have to bring so many things back to the capital?

The rewards from the palace were delivered on the day when the twins were one month old, and along with the rewards came an imperial edict.

The eldest daughter of Prince Jing'an, Xie Buli, was named Princess Anle County, and the eldest son, Xie Buqi, was named Crown Prince of Jing'an.

Everyone was envious because their family had the title of Duke Dingguo. The second son of Prince Jing'an, who had not yet appeared, was already the heir of the Duke Dingguo.

If I could become related to their family...

The eyes of the ladies looking at the twins became even more passionate.

Princess Anle and the Prince of Jing'an, who had just turned one month old, naturally did not understand these things. They only knew how to eat and sleep, and sleep and eat.

The personalities of the two little babies are gradually revealed. Xie Buli is a replica of Xie Changan. She is serious and no one smiles. Even if you tease her for a long time, she will just stare at you with a clear look. She will not smile happily unless she sees her mother.

Xie Buqi has a face of Xie Changan, but inside he is a male version of Jiang Li. He is extremely active, naughty and loves to laugh. He will giggle non-stop when teased. He is the favorite of Aunt Lian, who says that he is exactly like Jiang Li when he was a child.

Xie Changan had a premonition that when Xie Buqi grew up, he would become a lawless little devil and he must be kept under control.

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Buli is here. His sister will take care of him. We don't need to worry about him."

Xie Changan thought of how Xie Buli would beat his younger brother whenever they disagreed with each other in the womb, and he couldn't help but hold his forehead. He could imagine how chaotic the family would be in the future.

With the arrival of people from the Ministry of Works and the new scholars, the newly established Dali Prefecture finally began to operate normally.

The iron mine in Mihuntang began to be mined, and the commercial district named "Shenjunmiao Street" was officially opened.

The Longmen Commercial Bureau set up a branch here, and various Longmen branches opened their doors to welcome customers. The Dali city was full of vitality and prosperity.

On the first day of April, the emperor left the capital and headed for Mount Tai in a grand procession.

Nangong Qinghe brought the eldest prince, the empress, the imperial concubine, and the concubine with him. The eldest prince was already over two years old, so it was a good time to bring him out to see this great country.

Zhang Wanwan and Lu Meiyi were hopeful that the emperor had finally passed the mourning period and could get closer to the harem.

Seeing that the eldest prince is already over two years old, the two of them hope to take this opportunity to conceive a dragon fetus. Even if they cannot have a son at once, giving birth to a princess would be good too.

Liao Wuyong led the guards of the Eastern Depot and was naturally among those accompanying the emperor.

He is also looking forward to meeting a pair of cute grandchildren soon.

On Xie Chang'an's side, he appointed Zhang Zhe to lead 100,000 southern expeditionary troops to Mount Tai to welcome the emperor.

Seeing that everything was going according to plan and progressing step by step, Nangong Qinghe felt secretly uneasy.

There has been no rain in the northern regions since the winter snow melted!

It's almost the beginning of summer, but there's still no rain.

Along the way, we saw that the water level of the Yellow River was gradually decreasing, and even the Grand Canal from Beijing to Hangzhou was cut off!

He became more and more anxious, and kept summoning officials from the Ministry of Works and disciples of the Longmen Tiangong Mohist School to discuss matters.

Fortunately, since he ascended the throne, he has followed Mo Qillang's advice and built many water conservancy projects to store the melted snow water, so that he can finally get through the spring plowing season.

The water storage reservoirs in various places are now running dry. If there is no more rain, these spring seedlings will die, and there will be no harvest in the northern region this year!

To make matters worse, according to reports from officials across the country, even Zhejiang, Anhui and other places have experienced little rainfall and are beginning to suffer from water shortages.

The ministers headed by Prime Minister Liang watched coldly and complained secretly. There is a saying since ancient times - "If you don't listen to the advice of elders, you will suffer the consequences." If you don't listen to us, bad things will finally happen, right?

God had clearly given a warning, "When the Betelgeux appears, disaster will occur," but the young emperor ignored the opposition of his ministers and insisted on going on a southern tour. Now the disaster of drought is gradually appearing. Let's see how it ends for him.
