Civilian Consort

In daily life, I also told Qi Bai the interesting things about Qingxuan's childhood, which really made Qingxuan sit aside and didn't know how to react, but when it came to the interesting things about Qingxuan's childhood, Qi Bai wished he could take a pen to record and concentrate on it. Listen carefully, seeing what the queen said with joy, Qingxuan tried to change the subject several times but was ignored, and wanted to go back to the previous residence to find some things, so she said something to the queen, okay!The two of them don't care about themselves.

When I went back to the palace where I lived, there were still people doing the daily cleaning. It seemed that the queen was still thinking about whether Qingxuan would come back to live here. She took out from her bookcase the few books that Qibai said she wanted to read yesterday, and read them. Looking at this place where I lived since I was a child, I will spend more time in the son-in-law's mansion in the future. However, I can occasionally go back to my mother's house to live. I didn't stay long and walked to the Queen's Palace. On the way, I met Huang Yangzheng. As if he was waiting for himself, seeing that Qingxuan's attire was already in the best shape, after being stunned for a while, he said with a smile: "It seems that he treats you very well, and you look very happy."

Qingxuan just nodded and didn't speak, she really didn't know what to say, he knew his affection for her but couldn't respond to him, "You will find a woman who suits you and admires you." Qingxuan can only hope that he Let go and find what belongs to him.

"Hmm! Did I see that so-and-so is pestering someone else's woman!" At some point, Qi Bai appeared behind Huang Yangzheng, looking at the two of them with a smile on his face.

Qingxuan frowned, not very happy, this girl should have just arrived, suddenly interrupted, so impolite, it seems that she needs to educate her.

Seeing Qingxuan's unhappy face, Qi Bai didn't dare to say anything about her, and looked at Huang Yangzheng with malicious intentions, "Why are you here? You came to see Qingxuan specially!"

Huang Yang waved his hands quickly and explained: "I happened to be passing by, and I came to say hello when I saw the princess. I, I didn't come here specially to wait for the princess."

Qi Bai rolled his eyes, this innocent boy is so easy to understand, he really has a simple mind.

Huang Yang was looking at Qingxuan unhappy, he didn't know the reason, and he didn't want to see him when he saw Qibai, he remembered something and asked again: "Brother Xiang, the wound he was bitten by the snake last time has healed."

Qi Bai waved his hand, expressing that he was already fine, "Don't worry, I don't care about this level of snake bite, it's fine."

"That's good. I'm still on duty, so I'll take my leave first." After saluting Qi Bai and Qing Xuan, Huang Yangzheng left.

Qingxuan glared at Qibai, Qibai smiled roguely, and said to Qingxuan: "I saw that you had been away for a long time and hadn't come back, so I came to look for you, I didn't eavesdrop!"

"I was just talking to him, why are you talking about him like that!"

"Oh! You're not happy when I say that about him, are you?" Qi Bai was not happy when she heard that her tone was defending Huang Yangzheng.

"That's not what I meant. You shouldn't talk about him like this. We're just talking."

Hearing Qingxuan's unconscious explanation, Qi Bai had no choice but to say, "I didn't say anything! I just teased him. He is simple-minded and easy to understand. I know it. I just joked about it! "

Qingxuan led Qi Bai to the Queen's Palace, "Be careful what you say in the future, this is Huang Yangzheng, it's okay, it depends on who you are joking with."

"Of course I know! Why are you like Rei Fukuhara, afraid of me talking nonsense, do I talk a lot?" Looking at Qingxuan's face, isn't it?Sighing: "You all think I am young, but actually! Speaking of age, I am older than you."

Qingxuan looked disbelieving again, Qi Bai shrugged, remembering the ambiguous words the queen said just now, "Qingxuan, the queen said that I look like an acquaintance she knows? Have you seen it?"

Qingxuan shook her head, and she has always cared about what the queen said, "When the queen mother was at Xiu'er's age, she went out to play around by herself. She must have known each other at that time, but the queen mother didn't want to say more. It's not easy to ask."

"Didn't you hear her say boy, then it's not. When I heard that sentence, my heart trembled. Could it be a girl? It scared me to death at the time, but fortunately she didn't suspect it."

"Maybe the queen mother may know about your parents!"

"Then you are going to tell her that I am a woman, so that I won't be beaten to death directly. Besides, the queen doesn't know where I have gone. I don't want to find any parents. You are enough." I added in my heart In the previous sentence, my soul wears, my body belongs to this side, and I don't know if my parents are still there, so it doesn't seem to have any direct relationship with me.

"Let's talk about this later! I'll find an opportunity to ask the queen mother." What Qingxuan thought was that if it had something to do with Qi Bai's life experience, then she had to inquire carefully, and she didn't pay much attention to the girl .

Back at the queen's palace, the queen arranged a beautiful family banquet. During the meal, the emperor also came, and looked at the young couple of Qibai with a smile on his face. Seeing that the young couple got along well, he was more satisfied with his arrangement Yes, nodding repeatedly.

Qi Bai was still a little afraid of the emperor, and he was quite restrained in eating a meal.After lunch, the empress took Qibai to talk outside the courtyard again. The emperor was taking a nap in the empress' bedroom. In order not to disturb him, a group of people went to sit in the courtyard. Qibai was curious, why didn't Xiu'er come to eat, didn't come Join in the fun!

When the emperor went back to deal with state affairs, the queen showed a trace of tiredness, Qingxuan asked to leave, the queen asked the two of them to come to the palace to see her, and told them to be well, and finally pulled Qingxuan gently in her ear. After saying a few words, although Qi Bai didn't know what the queen said, but looking at Qingxuan's flushed face, it seemed that the queen said something that made her shy.

On the way back to the son-in-law's mansion, Qi Bai kept asking Qingxuan, what did the queen say to her in the end, Qingxuan either ignored her or just gave her a look, uh!what happened?I didn't make you angry, did I!What's wrong with this?Qingxuan was stalking relentlessly, Qingxuan had no choice but to be stalked, and said angrily: "The queen mother asked me to take good care of your body."

It took a long time for Qi Bai to react before he realized that the empress felt that she was young, and she wanted to remind the two of them not to forget the plan to create a human being!With a smirk, he put his arms around Qingxuan's waist and said: "The queen mother is right, don't you always punish me physically, my body is weak, I can't take care of it."

"Hmph! Don't push your nose on your face!" Qingxuan wanted to slap Qibai's dishonest hand away, but Qibai's hug became tighter, so Qingxuan stopped struggling and leaned on Qibai's shoulder.

"The summer in Kyoto is very hot, isn't it? Our village is very cool." Qi Bai thought that summer will be here in two months. Kyoto is located in the central part, between the north and the south, so I don't know if it's hot or not. Still quite afraid of the heat, the key is not to wear too little here, alas!

Qingxuan thought for a while and then said: "The summer in Kyoto is not bad, it's not too hot, but the summer in other places is not easy." As she said that, she looked out the window, and Qi Bai looked at her, what is this? mean?I'm in a bad mood again, not angry, but helpless and sad.

Back at the son-in-law's mansion, Qi Bai always remembered Qingxuan's sad expression just now, but Qingxuan didn't mention the summer weather anymore when he returned to the mansion, okay!Qingxuan couldn't find out about it, so she asked Yao'er.

"Yao'er! Doesn't Qingxuan like summer?"

Yaoer was making tea, she shook her head after thinking about it, "The princess never said that she doesn't like summer, but she seems to be in a bad mood every summer."

"why?"

"The princess used to study kung fu abroad and traveled around. I also heard from the princess that in the summer, several places in the northwest are severely drought, not to mention crops and so on. The drinking water of the people is a problem. The princess seems to have seen something. The sight that made her feel uncomfortable, so far, she has been in a bad mood in summer, and she is still wandering around, as if trying to solve the drought, I don’t know the specifics, I also heard a few words from the princess.”

"Oh! Do you know the names of the places?"

Yao'er shook her head, she had never heard of those place names, so she didn't remember them.

Qi Bai made a secret note that now he should have work to do. Starting from this day, Qi Bai went out early and returned late every day. , The weather changes over the years, after finding out which prefectures and towns in the northwest were severely drought, I went to the Ministry of Industry every day to ask about geology, and also investigated the geology and water conservancy in the south.

Qingxuan saw that she didn't know what she was busy with all day long, so when she asked her, Qibai said that she was thinking about getting a job in the future, but she saw lines and lines drawn by her in her study, and something that looked like a windmill, wasn't it? I understand very well, I want to ask Qibai!As soon as she was in the study, she ignored anyone who talked to her, and she looked engrossed.

Qi Bai learned that there are a total of nine prefectures with severe drought, and there are even more towns below. The geographical location has little rainfall. When there is a drought in summer, the imperial court did not think of ways to prevent water delivery in advance. But the degree of drought is different every year, and prevention cannot solve the fundamental problem. For this reason, the population of the people in these nine states has plummeted. When we met, I was very welcome. After hearing about Qi Bai's intentions, I was very cooperative with Qi Bai in checking information and so on. Who doesn't know that the emperor is very fond of this year's Wen champion, otherwise the two princesses will marry. The son-in-law is here, of course he is very welcome, Qi Bai thought that he wanted something from others, so he had to be friendly.The information of the Ministry of Industry is still very comprehensive. Qi Bai showed that he had read the overall map of Tang Huangguo, copied it himself, and highlighted the location of Kyushu from the Ministry of Households. The Minister of the Ministry of Industry looked at it and prayed With such a tick, you can roughly understand what Qi Bai wants to do.

"My son-in-law, is this a problem of trying to cure the drought in Kyushu?"

Qi Bai nodded to him.

"We have been thinking of ways in the past few years, but none of them work, or they are too laborious and costly, and the gains outweigh the losses."

Qi Bai thought to himself, yes, the problem of hurting money must also be considered.

For half a month, Qi Bai has been thinking of a way to solve this problem. I have talked to several experts from the Ministry of Industry about the several methods I have thought of. At present, there is no one that can be offered, but there is a method that I have been thinking about in my heart, but I didn't know very well, and I didn't tell them.

This day, it was rare for Qi Bai to come back early, so he could have dinner with Qing Xuan, Qing Xuan saw that Qi Bai came back early today, and looked at her with a strange face, it was rare!This is the first time in half a month!

There were only two people at the dinner, Qingxuan put on a smile, and gave Qibai some food, and said: "What is the son-in-law doing these days? He didn't even have a good meal with the concubine."

Qi Bai swallowed, it was the first time that Qingxuan talked to herself so delicately, it was quite weird, she smiled flatteringly: "Busy! Nothing busy."

Qingxuan slapped her chopsticks on the table, and instantly she had a fierce look on her face, "Is it fine to drink the toast instead of eating it, talk to you carefully, if you don't listen, you have to force me to do this."

"That's not the case. Qingxuan, I haven't researched anything so far. Let me tell you first. If I have studied for so long and can't find a way to end it, I'm afraid I will disappoint you."

"Tell me first what you are studying."

"It's good to have dinner first. After dinner, I'll take you to the study room and tell you. Don't be angry! You just spoke very nicely, but it's not like the usual you. Hehe." Qibai picked up vegetables for Qingxuan, Qingxuan gave her a sideways glance, and ate well as she said. This was the first time the two of them dined together in half a month. Maybe Bai hadn't seen Qingxuan for a long time. He ate happily, thinking about what to say to her later. .

The author has something to say: It’s been a long wait, it’s not easy!

☆, to share your worries

After dinner, Qingxuan waited for Baibai in the study, seeing the posture of holding a teacup, just waiting for her honest confession.

Qi Bai took out the materials he had collected these days, and a few ideal drawings he had drawn, and told Qingxuan that he had heard about the drought in Northwest Kyushu from Yaoer, and then he thought of a way to solve or alleviate the drought. , The data from the Ministry of Industry and some of the research I searched, I probably understand the situation. If possible, I would like to confirm the geological environment of those states on the spot. Some data have not had the latest records for several years.

"You want to open a canal to divert water from a place with abundant water to the northwest?" Qingxuan asked after sorting out her thoughts in her head.

"Yes, there is abundant water in the southwest, and there is a canal that spans from west to east. We can open a tributary from this main river to lead to the drought-affected areas in the northwest. After a while, if this is implemented, it will be a big project, and it will cost people and money." Thinking of the funding problem mentioned by the Ministry of Industry, this is what Qi Bai is more worried about.

"It's a waste of money for the people? This is to solve problems for the people. Those who enter the court as officials, they can spend less money in their daily entertainment. You should tidy up the paperwork in hand. I think it is feasible. You go to the palace tomorrow and tell your father. I will also go together. Find a way to convince father." After thinking about it, Qingxuan said to Qibai.

"Huh? Is this all right? I still want to prepare a few more plans, so that the emperor will find it feasible." Qi Bai is not very confident in his current thinking.

Qingxuan said domineeringly: "I say yes. If the emperor agrees, it must be implemented in advance. Once it enters summer, the drought will start, and it will be too late to prepare."

Qi Bai nodded, "Okay! You can do it if you say so. I'll prepare what I'm going to say to the emperor tomorrow." As he spoke, Qi Bai began to concentrate on organizing.

Qingxuan looked at her, thoughtfully, and said softly, "Qibai, why are you interested in this all of a sudden?"

"Huh? Because you are unhappy! You said you were unhappy in Xia Tian. I asked Yao'er. After thinking about it, I guess it was the reason. Madam is unhappy. As a husband, how can I not help you solve your problems!" Qi Bai Looking up at Qingxuan, she answered it as a matter of course, but it also surprised Qingxuan, it was just a casual sentence, but she remembered it clearly.

Qingxuan patted Qi Bai's head lightly, and smiled gratifiedly.Seeing her smile, Qi Bai smirked along, but this kind of head-patting is not suitable for him, and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't keep patting my head, I will be short, and when I grow taller than you, you won't be able to photograph me." .snort!"

"That will take a long time! By the way, do you dare not let me pat your head?" With such contemptuous eyes, Qi Bai shrank his head in a very useless manner, and did not dare to refute, expressing for his future growth. deep concern.

On the second day, Qibai and Qingxuan went to the palace to meet the emperor, told the emperor what he had discussed with Qingxuan last night, and invited the Minister of the Ministry of Industry to meet with him, with the Minister of the Ministry of Industry beside him After talking about the feasibility of this move, the emperor believed it even more. Qingxuan was still writing a guarantee letter for Qi Bai. After thinking about it, the emperor carefully read the document submitted by Qi Bai and asked him some questions. Details, finally, an order was issued to seal Xiang Qibai as the inspector of Northwest Kyushu. The emperor finally decided to open the canal. Qingxuan was not very happy when she left the palace, probably because the emperor did not make a decision immediately. However, Qingxuan also asked to go together, and the emperor agreed. The Ministry of Life and Industry sent people to accompany him all the way, and handed over to Qi Bai to dispatch.

Afterwards, the prince came to look for Qi Bai, and told Qi Bai to be careful all the way, not forgetting to take good care of Qingxuan and so on. When the sun came out of the palace gate, the prince happened to pass by, and saw Qingxuan going out with a displeased face, to greet the emperor I just asked in passing, the emperor can actually see that Qingxuan is not very happy, but such a large project does not mean that it can be started immediately, as the emperor has to consider a lot, I hope Qi Bai can understand.

"I'm fine. Originally, I started trying to solve this problem because of Qingxuan. I'll talk to her about it. However, I guess it will take a while for me to calm down. Even if the object is the emperor, hehe!"

The prince can't do anything about this younger sister, maybe he doesn't spend much time with the emperor, and he has never had a deep affection for the emperor, so the emperor has nothing to do about it.

Under Qingxuan's strong request, everyone set off on the next day, first to the canal ferry by horse-drawn carriage, and then to the place where Qi Bai wanted to open the canal by boat, it would take seven or eight days to say the least, Qi Bai, Qingxuan , Yaoer, and Li Feng also went together, and needed a male guard to help him a few times. This is what Qingxuan said, and two officials from the Ministry of Industry went with him, because Qi Bai wanted to keep a low profile, and only knowledge These people set out and brought so many people with them, it didn't look like they were doing anything.

Qibai was not idle along the way, and kept confirming various projects with the two officials of the Ministry of Industry, because once the on-site confirmation of the various conditions was as expected, he could immediately report back to the emperor to ask for the canal to be opened, and then the various places received imperial orders. Life, if it is constructed at the same time, it should save a lot of time.

Looking at Qingxuan again, after all the people got on the boat, they were still unhappy, Qi Bai knew that he had to find a way to make her happy.

This day and night, Yaoer went to rest early because of some symptoms of seasickness. Qi Bai took Qingxuan, who was fine, to the deck to blow the wind and count the stars, and brought the food and wine that she secretly prepared. There are not many, but it makes Qi Bai feel distressed.

"Dear princess! You don't need to be so awkward, except that I see you so distressed all day long, and the emperor can't see it. Be happy. I have prepared the fastest plan with my friends from the Ministry of Industry. Try not to spend too much time on the road.”

Qingxuan looked at Qibai and sighed, "If only they all worked as hard as you do."

"Eh? That won't work. I'm so motivated because of you. If everyone works so hard because of you, I'll be jealous." After finishing speaking, he was hit hard on the head.

"Who said your motives. What I mean is that when you do things for the people, you can't think about the people because of your responsibilities and positions. Everyone only cares about themselves, or has so many concerns."

"Yes! Yes! Yes! It would be better for you to express your dissatisfaction. Don't be bored in your heart. Come on, I have prepared some food. While you are eating, I will play the flute for you. Do you want to hear it or not?" Pray and ask in a flattering manner.

"You have already taken out the flute, how can I say not to listen?"

"Hey! Then I'll make a fool of myself!" The crisp flute sounded slowly, wanting to improve Qingxuan's mood, Qi Bai chose a lighthearted tune first, followed by a lyrical tune, which he played whenever he thought of it. I have forgotten the name of the song, but as long as it sounds good, Qingxuan can feel better. When Qibai fell into selfless performance, Qingxuan sat on one side, drinking the snacks and wine prepared by Qibai, very leisurely. I enjoyed it, Qi Bai played the flute music that I had never heard before, but it made me feel at ease, I don’t know if it was because of Qi Bai being by my side, or the comfort of the breeze blowing by this scene made Qingxuan feel bored The mood is slowly dispelled, replaced by something comfortable and peaceful.

"Qi Bai, will you keep playing the flute for me like this?" Qingxuan said out of nowhere.

Qi Bai put down the flute and said with a smile: "Of course the flute is played for those who know you well. As long as you want to hear it, I can play it for you anytime." There are very few such ancient games. God, I’m not good at this, so I just read books and listen to music at most. I have nothing to do, and I have nothing to do. I have nothing to do and draw some pictures. I just thought about tinkering with some delicious food recently. Not a lot.

Qingxuan didn't know what was going on in Qibai's head, but she just felt that sometimes it's good for Qibai to stay by her side, provided that she didn't make herself angry.

On the third day of the boat trip, Qi Bai had nothing to do, so he asked Li Feng to find the boat owner to come and fish with hooks. It is such a big river, so there must be a lot of fish. Unfortunately, the two of them struggled all morning and did not see any fish. .

Li Feng complained, "My son-in-law, our boat will definitely not be able to catch fish when it is sailing."

"Stupid you! The boat is moving, and the fish is swimming too! You think the fish is always motionless, waiting for you to catch it and take the bait!" Qi Bai glared at him.

In the end, the boatman still catches a lot of fish by casting nets. As soon as the fresh fish came up, Qi Bai thought whether it was hot and sour fish or grilled fish. He ran into the boatman’s kitchen and had a discussion with the cook before helping to prepare it. A table full of fish feast, this Qingxuan is finally in a good mood, so she prepares a lot of delicious food and asks her to eat more, so that she can eat more when she is in a good mood.

There is sweet and sour fish, which is specially prepared by Qi Bai for Qingxuan. There are also fish head soup, spicy fish, and hot and sour fish. Since there are no props for grilling fish, Qi Bai thinks that he can only make it next time, and vice versa. It was prepared by Qibai and the cook together. Qingxuan looked at the table and heard that Qibai said that she prepared it. Yaoer shook her head to express her disbelief. It was not until the cook came out to speak to Qibai that she said Believe it somewhat.

Looking forward to Qingxuan's evaluation after eating the fish, and after seeing her nod, she happily said: "Look at my husband! I can go out of the hall and go down to the kitchen, and I can cook a lot of delicious food! After you Just wait to eat! You need to make you fatter for nothing."

When Qingxuan heard this, she immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks, and retorted: "Don't be fat in vain."

"Ah! Women who love beauty are really terrible. They are not the fat ones, but the ones with the right figure." Qi Bai quickly explained.

"Then don't be fat."

"I know, don't put down the bowls and chopsticks! You won't get fat if you eat fish, and there is no fat in it. Eat more. It's rare that I prepare such a table of delicious food. Don't you eat more!" Qi Bai began Pretending to be pitiful, squeezing his eyes hard, the kind that looked teary.

Li Feng and Yao'er were waiting on the sidelines, Qi Bai said that he was also preparing for everyone, so he let him go down, and he didn't have to wait on him. For flirting or something, it's enough for him and Qingxuan to be alone. , other people are inevitably a little embarrassed, mainly because Qingxuan feels embarrassed, and it doesn't matter if Qibai has an unusually thick skin.Seeing that Qingxuan finally ate some, Qi Bai felt relieved.

The author has something to say: Please understand, I am working hard! !

☆, on-site inspection

After Qi Bai and his party disembarked at the expected ferry, Qi Bai and two people from the Ministry of Industry went to the local county government office, asked for someone familiar with the geography, and surveyed the ferry for several days. This ferry is a cargo transit The reason why Qibai chooses this place as the first place to open the canal is because it can bring some help to the commercial development of the coastal areas where the canal is opened. On the one hand, Qibai considers water diversion, and also thinks that the canal rises every year. Considering diversion to prevent floods, this is clearly stated in the booklet presented to the emperor. The result is that the geographical conditions of the place are just as Qi Bai thought, there are no villages within the range of the canal, and the distance between farmland is just right. , can also be used as irrigation water.

Qi Bai, the two people from the Ministry of Industry, and the local governor made it clear that when the emperor issued an order, they would immediately arrange for people to start construction. The scope and specific location of the construction were clearly marked on the map that Qi Bai gave them. It is clear, and when inspecting the site with the people from the Ministry of Industry, marks are also made on the poles at a certain distance.Qibai is already preparing for the opening of the canal in the future, so as to enter the preparation stage as soon as possible.

Although Qingxuan knew about Qibai's plan, once he arrived at the site, Qibai immediately started to work, serious and rigorous, not like it was his first time doing this job, even the two officials from the Ministry of Industry were amazed, saying that Qibai's thinking was logical Clearly, for such a big project, the plan is very clear before and after, which made the two people look at each other with admiration. At first, they were still concerned about Qi Bai's age, but in the end, these two experienced people learned a lot.After hearing what these two people said, Qingxuan became even more curious about how Qibai learned these things, but Qibai went out early and returned late every day. Once, although Qingxuan followed and understood, she didn't know that she could help. something.

All the way to the northwestern region, Qi Bai encountered a problem. In the plain area originally recorded by the Ministry of Industry, there should be a forest. When Qi Bai and others went to see it, they found that the forest had turned into a village. Hundreds of families have settled here, Qi Bai and his party are surprised, and the villagers are also surprised when they see these people from outside. Few people come to the village. Most people take the official road, and there are only some country roads here pass in.

Qi Bai asked the villagers to find the village chief, a very energetic uncle named Li Shuifang. After explaining his purpose, Qi Bai asked the village chief how the village was moved here, which was not recorded in the official records.

Uncle Shuifang took a breath of earthen cigarettes, prayed for Bai, Qingxuan and the two officials from the Ministry of Industry were sitting at the village chief's house, waiting for the village chief to speak, when he heard him sigh, "Our village, originally In Xili Village, Li Township, Ganzhou, our village was moved here two years ago due to land acquisition by the township chief.”

"Did you relocate suddenly? Did you explain the reason?" Qi Bai looked at the two people from the Ministry of Industry curiously. This must have been reported to the higher authorities. This happened two years ago, and the information from the Ministry of Industry still hasn't been updated. , there must be a problem.

"It was said that we wanted to build a garden in our place, so our land was confiscated."

"Then have you received subsidies from the village? There should be some for public use of land." Qingxuan thought about this question first, and asked aloud.

"There is no subsidy, but this place was found by the village. When building a house, some subsidy is enough." People in ancient times still have a strong affection for their homeland, even though it has been two years since they moved here. But for some older people, they are still not used to life here.

Qingxuan and Qibai glanced at each other, and Qibai thought for a while. Before he could figure out the surrounding environment, he said to the village chief: "Uncle village chief, can we bother you for a few days? We The project needs to be surveyed nearby, can you arrange a few vacant rooms for us?"

The uncle was also straightforward, and after greeting a few villagers, he made people prepare to clean up.

Qi Bai couldn't help sighing, it really didn't go so smoothly, "This is the river I planned to open the canal through, this village can't go here, I have to look at the surrounding environment , may have to change lanes." Qi Bai said to the two big brothers from the Ministry of Industry, and then began to split up to check the situation nearby.

Li Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the location of the village is the best area to open canals, but such a sudden encounter made Qi Bai feel very upset.After resting for a day, the next day, Qi Bai asked Li Feng and a big brother from the Ministry of Industry to take the emperor's order to a nearby county government to investigate the matter, and then took another big brother from the Ministry of Industry to think about it. Going to the high places nearby to explore, Yao'er was waiting at the door with a basket early in the morning, Qi Bai looked at this posture, and then looked at Qingxuan who was also dressed casually, not knowing why.

"There is no rush for this matter. You are going to the mountain, and we will go too. Just in time, Yao'er has prepared some food, so we can be on the mountain..."

"Picnic! Why didn't I think of it! Although work is also important, you have to combine work and rest! In addition, the scenery on the nearby mountains is beautiful." Qi Bai heard Qingxuan's words and ran to Yaoer's side. Busy inspection have prepared something delicious.

In the end, Qingxuan still twisted her ears, "It's a combination of work and rest, why are you so motivated, I know I shouldn't tell you now, let's go! Master Xiang, it's time to work."

Yaoer and the eldest brother from the Ministry of Industry were secretly laughing. Liu Tingxu, who was seven years older than Qi Bai and had worked in the Ministry of Industry for four years, was full of passion for work. He said it was because of his efforts to come here. On the one hand, he was curious about where this little son-in-law came from so many wonderful ideas. On the other hand, he had never left the capital for work. After getting along with Qi Bai these days, although he also found that Qi Bai still has some children. He is kind, but serious and eager to learn. Although his professional knowledge is not as good as his own, his brain turns quickly. Yan Xiao, although he didn't talk much at first along the way, but in the past few days, apart from bickering with the son-in-law from time to time, and occasionally using minor violence, the son-in-law never resisted. of.

However, Qingxuan doesn't want people to see this side of herself, but Qibai always makes herself unable to restrain herself to scold her. Noticing the reactions of Yao'er and Liugong, Qingxuan rolled her eyes Qi Bai walked out of the yard first.

Qi Bai hurriedly followed, and the four of them started their journey over mountains and ridges. Fortunately, there were traces of people going up the mountains. The enthusiastic village chief found a little boy in the village to lead the way for everyone, and climbed three times in a row. On the top of the mountain, Qi Bai expressed that he was a bit exhausted and needed to supplement food. Yaoer took out a large piece of cloth and spread it on the ground, and laid out the food. Qi Bai called the little boy to eat together. The people in Xiaojie also sat down on the ground after carefully looking at the nearby terrain.

"There are mountains here, so it's not easy to divert traffic to this side. After bypassing these mountains, the distance is not only longer, but there are also villages over there, which is not easy!"

Qi Bai also knew that it would be difficult. After reading it just now, he was thinking about it. The current method is nothing more than two, one is to detour and change the channel, and the other is the last thing that Qi Bai thought of early in the morning. The villagers of Li Village moved again, but they never wanted to do this unless it was absolutely necessary. This was really a waste of time and money.

With delicious food in his mouth, Qi Bai was not in the mood to enjoy the food at all. After seeing the mountains on three sides, he could only put his hope on the other side. Officially, this is troublesome.After going down the mountain, you must measure the distance. If the official road is occupied, the official road will be changed again. This series of linkage effects will be brought about.

Seeing that Qibai's expression was not good, Qingxuan knew that the problem must be more serious, and then looked at Liu Tingxu, he also looked worried.

"Liu Gong, let's go down the mountain and take a look over there later!" Qi Bai said, Liu Tingxu nodded after hearing this, and now he can only go to see the situation there first.

Qingxuan and Yao'er didn't speak, they didn't want to disturb their thoughts, and they didn't know what to say.

"Princess, we'll go over there to have a look later, you and Yao'er should go back to your residence first!"

Qingxuan wanted to insist on going there together, but seeing Qi Bai like this, she had no way to refute, so she hummed.

When it was dark, Qi Bai came back with Liu Tingxu, Qingxuan asked how the situation was, Qi Bai thought for a while and said: "It's a little better than the worst case I thought, but it's troublesome, I'm going to check it carefully during the day tomorrow. Try to get detailed figures, and the other thing is to wait for Li Feng and the others to come back."

"En! Then you wash your hands and come in to eat!"

"Huh? Haven't you eaten yet? I've ordered this, don't wait for me!" Qi Bai hurried in, seeing that the food on the table hadn't been touched, should it be heart-warming or worrying? "Qingxuan, eat first if you're hungry, don't wait for me."

"If I'm hungry, I'll eat first. You don't need to tell me, don't hurry up."

Qi Bai knew that so-and-so was arrogant again, so he didn't dare to say any more, he just kept his head down to eat, but Li Feng didn't come back, it seemed that it was so late, and he couldn't come back today.

"Qi Bai, can the problem here be solved?"

"Tomorrow, after I measure the distance with Liu Tingxu, I will know. I compared my pace today. Although it is a bit difficult to deal with, it can't be solved!" It's much better. When Li Feng brings back the news and the detailed map here, he has to draw up a two-dimensional plan.

"That's good. I have to work hard for you these days!"

"It's okay, it's okay, hehe! You can treat me well once in a while!" Qi Bai had a doggy look on his face.

Hearing what Qibai said, Qingxuan knew what this girl was planning again, "Tell me! What reward do you want!"

"Hey! My requirements are not high
