Chapter 523: Construction of the National Canal

After saying this, Qi Deyuan added a thoughtful sentence to His Highness in order to avoid His Highness's worry:

"Don't worry, Your Highness. The imperial physician has already examined His Majesty and said he's fine. He'll be here soon."

Liang Chongyue was still a little worried when Eunuch Qi said this. Even Prime Minister Jiang, who was standing beside him, saw that His Highness had a slightly frown on his face and looked worried. He was hesitant about whether to go forward and continue asking questions.

"Puppy, go check what happened to your scumbag dad."

The system, which had not yet woken up, was still not fully conscious and was summoned and turned on by the host with just one click.

I thought that the scumbag father was going to fail, and the host could finally take over. With eye boogers still hanging from the corners of the system's eyes, it began to get ready to study carefully what was wrong with the scumbag father.

It can also calculate how long its scumbag father can live and how long it will take for the host to take the throne. Its great cause can finally be realized. Now let's see if those little masters who look down on this system dare to say that the system's database is lost and it is an incomplete system. Humph!

The system went through all the information about the scumbag father during this period, but found nothing. At first, I thought it was because I was too excited and read it at 36 times the speed, which was too fast, and I missed something. Unexpectedly, I read it again and still found nothing.

The system didn't give up and looked at the physical monitoring report of Yanzai's father. Its pair of green bean-sized eyes stared straight at the four big words "very healthy" displayed on the report, and it felt like its brain was about to burn dry.

"Host! He's not sick! He's lying! Oh, oh, oh, he just doesn't want to go to court and deceive my feelings!"

After receiving an accurate response from the system, Liang Chongyue hung up the call. Although he didn't know what his scumbag father was up to, Liang Chongyue still said to Qi Deyuan who had been waiting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony:

"I am extremely worried about the safety of my father. Could you please let me see him first?"

Qi Deyuan was a little at a loss in the face of His Highness's reasonable request. Since His Majesty had not given any instructions, it should not be possible.

"Your Highness, the imperial physician has made a diagnosis. Your Majesty will come over after taking the medicine. It is best for you to stay here."

Liang Chongyue had achieved his goal and no longer wanted to embarrass Qi Deyuan.

He turned his gaze to Prime Minister Jiang who was standing beside him:

"What puzzled Prime Minister Jiang just now?"

Prime Minister Jiang still had the papers in his sleeve in one hand. He wanted to ask His Highness before His Majesty came. He didn't believe that His Highness would not understand how much impact the sudden order to resume work would have on the lives of the people in Guanzhong, who were already having a hard time because of the flood.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Jiang completely ignored his previous worries and took out the thing in his sleeve again.

The eyes of the civil and military officials behind the two men were all fixed on the object in Prime Minister Jiang's hands, and they unconsciously approached Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. They also wanted to know why Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess, who had made remarkable political achievements at a young age, suddenly ordered the resumption of work.

It was obvious that the Spring Examination would be held soon, but His Highness still had the mind to do other things. At this time, Guanzhong had already started construction according to His Highness's requirements. If the notice had not been posted in the capital, they would not know anything.

Liang Chongyue quietly watched Prime Minister Jiang unfold the notice that she had ordered posted yesterday. However, there was no private seal on it, so it must have been a copy. Presumably, no one dared to tear up the notice she had ordered posted.

"This old minister is of limited knowledge. I don't understand why Your Highness suddenly ordered the construction of the National Canal in Guanzhong. It stretches over 300 miles from Jingzhou in the west to Tianze in the east. It would take at least ten years to complete, considering the huge labor and labor involved."

Liang Chongyue understood the concerns of Prime Minister Jiang. In history, the Zhengguo Canal did take ten years to build, but so what? Despite the strong opposition within the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Qin Shi Huang eventually completed the construction of the Zhengguo Canal.

Not only did it solve the flood problem in Guanzhong area, but it also made Guanzhong area the main grain producing area of the Qin Dynasty. Although it took the efforts of the whole country, the contribution will last for thousands of years.

Liang Chongyue wanted to build more than just the Zhengguo Canal during her reign. Wasn't it because she had saved up the luck to buy the blueprints?

She hadn't seen many officials in the court who were good at water conservancy projects. Since she couldn't rely on them, didn't she have to do it herself?

After choosing and choosing, Zhengguoqu was the most suitable one. With one click of confirmation, her account became almost an empty shell.

"Due to flooding, vast tracts of wasteland remain in Guanzhong. If the Jing River in the west could be diverted to feed the Luo River in the east, over 40,000 hectares of marshy land could be transformed into fertile plains. Grain production would increase significantly, and Guanzhong could become the richest region in the world."

"I understand that the army has just conquered the northern border, and the national treasury has been greatly depleted by the troops. This move requires the efforts of the entire nation, but once the national canal is completed, the benefits will last for generations to come."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, without caring whether Prime Minister Jiang understood or not, he suddenly turned around and happened to face the officials who had gathered behind him to eavesdrop.

"Is my voice loud enough? Do you all understand? If you still have any questions, please feel free to ask now. I will answer them one by one. After today, I will no longer serve you."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves. Although his face showed no emotion, his official uniform embroidered with a four-clawed golden python pattern reminded all the civil and military officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony at all times.

Standing before them was a man who had made outstanding political achievements since childhood and invented the "Fu Yue Xiang" at the age of five.

It greatly increased the output of grain grown by the people and solved the key problem of people not having enough food.

In the same year, she was conferred the title of Princess Zhenguo, and in the following years she would accomplish something that benefited the country and the people almost every two years.

The year before last, she conquered Dai Viet and Langwa, and last year, it took her less than half a year to capture the northern imperial city, becoming the first crown princess in the history of Daxia.

Her Royal Highness's vision and foresight are beyond the reach of all of them combined.

Liang Chongyue stood in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, facing all the civil and military officials in the hall. At this moment, she understood why her scumbag father suddenly claimed to be ill and postponed the morning court today.

Everything was done so that she would have time to explain the construction of the National Canal clearly. The construction of the National Canal took ten years. If she didn't explain it clearly today, she might not have another chance to explain it clearly in the next ten years.

She could have ignored all the advice and stubbornly carried out her decision for the future of Daxia just like Qin Shi Huang.

But as long as the national canal is not completed and the officials and the people cannot see the benefits it brings, she may be criticized by the public.

The scumbag dad knew this very well, so he specially made time for her to explain it clearly to these idiots.
