Huaiyu is slightly cool

On the slope of the mountain forest, two luxury carriages with tall horses parked leisurely by the side of the road to graze. The eldest princess leaned on the cushion inside, looking lazily at the scenery of the mountains and forests outside the wind-blown curtain, occasionally turning her eyes It fell on Zhou Huai who was sitting in front of the car talking with his subordinates.

And in the mountains and forests farther away from the carriage, there were thousands of ambush soldiers who could not be ambushed and were repelled.The mountains and forests are still green, but there are corpses everywhere in the forest, and the grass and trees are all stained red.

Zhou Huai handed over [-] elite troops to Wu Guisi, who was brought by Yunzhou with [-] cavalry day and night to take command. He chased down the remaining defeated enemies in the forest, cleaned up the scene, buried the corpses, and put the crossbow The arrows were collected, and it was already sunset when everything was done.

As for the safety of the carriage, Xiao Yu took all the troops of the eldest princess - a total of fifty guards from the imperial army, to guard the outermost perimeter.The inner circle is still protected by Zhou Huai's 36 Lingyu personal guards.

Zhou Huai and one of the seven child prodigies, Jiang Wenyuan, known as "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth", chatted in front of the car for a while about the ambush that happened before, and then changed the subject: "Have you received Huai Yuan?"

Jiang Wenyuan stood beside Zhou Huai with a straight figure. He was ashamed when he heard the words, and took out two thin thread-bound booklets from his arms, held them in front of Zhou Huai with both hands, bowed his head and replied: "This subordinate has neglected his duty, and he didn't take it back. Governor Li said that the north granary is picturesque with the wind blowing the wheat waves, and he wants to spend the rest of his life there with his family and children and grandchildren. Remember, the subordinates obey Master Huai's orders and dare not force them, so they can only go back to the Huai Courtyard to report to Dean Shen, she asked her subordinates to come here to help Master Huai, and bring these notes directly to Master Huai."

The Eldest Princess lifted the curtain and leaned against the window to hear it, and interjected curiously: "The governor is also good at farming, mulberry and water conservancy?"

Jiang Wenyuan, who was waiting for Zhou Huai's release, glanced at Zhou Huai who was flipping through the letters. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he bowed and saluted and replied: "Return to Your Highness, he is the governor of the river, in charge of the water administration of the river."

"Isn't the person in charge of the river channel the history of water transport? How come I have never heard of a governor?"

Zhou Huai was quickly flipping through the contents of the handbook. Hearing this, he looked back at the eldest princess and explained to her with a smile: "It's just that the name is different. The job is actually similar to that of the Water Division of the Ministry of Industry. It is responsible for fishery administration, embankments, and planning and construction of water conservancy projects. These. When I planned to build three dams on the Cangyuan River two years ago, I asked Li Zheng to be in charge. But he only built one and gave up. He also said that I was wasting people and money, and building one would be enough to store water and prevent floods Yes. I sent him directly to reclaim wasteland, that is, the piece of wasteland sent by the Qiang Kingdom when the Zhao Kingdom was partitioned. Originally, it should be returned to Mo Ziqi after the Yancheng Council, but now I am short of land and food. I rented it out again."

The eldest princess nodded, and did not continue the topic, but took a few glances at Jiang Wenyuan who was beside Zhou Huai.Looking a few years older than Zhou Huai, with red lips and white teeth, he is handsome, dressed in a brocade robe, golden crown and jade belt, which makes his eyebrows look high and vigorous.

Jiang Wenyuan still had something to discuss with Zhou Huai at this time, so he stood where he was and calmly faced the eldest princess' scrutinizing eyes.The eldest princess didn't say any more, she looked away, lowered the curtain and went back into the carriage.

Jiang Wenyuan, who was at the side, saw that the eldest princess had retracted into the car again, so he hurriedly said to Zhou Huai: "Before leaving, Dean Shen asked his subordinates to bring a message to Master Huai: Miss, please put the overall situation first and return to Huaiyuan as soon as possible. "

"I have my own plan. It's fine if people don't receive it. Next, you will go to Fuzhou to deal with the cooperation between the Huai family and the Ji family." Zhou Huai replied without raising his head, as if he did not take into account Shen Regret's words. Take it to heart.

"Does it need to get rid of Ji's family secretly?"

Zhou Huai raised his head, looked at Jiang Wenyuan, who lowered his voice cautiously, threw the notes back to Jiang Wenyuan angrily, and said, "I think too much. The Ji family may be the property of the mistress of the Huai Academy in the future. You are going to cooperate."

"..." Although I know that the boss and the capital are fighting for power and power, but they have a very close relationship in private, but is this relationship too close?And Master Huai really doesn't like men, poor Fang Zhongji.Jiang Wenyuan mourned for a while, and then asked tentatively, "What about the Lu family?"

"Although Miss Lu is a bit stupid, she is also kind and righteous. If someone takes action against the Lu family, please help if you can."

Jiang Wenyuan nodded. He didn't seem to be surprised by Zhou Huai's words. Instead, he asked with a lewd smile, "Isn't Miss Lu beautiful..."

Wu Guisi came towards Zhou Huai with a fast-paced entourage. Seeing Jiang Wenyuan's appearance, he subconsciously covered his mouth, and said to Zhou Huai, "Lord Huai, your subordinate is back."

"Hmm... Xiao Guisi, you actually covered my mouth with the hand you just finished touching the corpse, I'll cut you off!" Jiang Wenyuan pulled Wu Guisi's hand away, feeling that he was being bullied by his servant in front of Zhou Huai's boss. Jiang Wenyuan, who lost his face, jumped to pinch the neck of Wu Guisi, who was obviously smaller than him, but a head taller than him and had natural supernatural power, but Wu Guisi lifted him up by the back collar with one hand.Jiang Wenyuan's hands and feet were hanging in the air, and he couldn't help kicking at Wu Guisi in anger, and the calm and steady figure just now collapsed.

Zhou Huai looked at the handsome man for only three seconds, and Jiang Wenyuan, who would explode when he encountered Wu Guisi's violent force, raised his hand to stop his noise, and asked Wu Guisi, "What did you find?"

Wu Guisi put Jiang Wenyuan down, and looked back at Zhou Huai respectfully: "From the preliminary inspection of those weapons and corpses, it was found that people from the Xirong and Qiang kingdoms joined forces with some stubborn families in the northwest. Just now, two groups of people ran away from different directions. The subordinates have sent people to follow up, and I believe there will be results of the investigation soon."

Zhou Huai nodded: "Then you will be responsible for this matter to the end, just let it go and report the results to me."

"Yes." Wu Guisi responded, and said again: "President Shen received a letter from Minister Liao's Feige. It said that the border of the Qiang Kingdom frequently dispatched troops, and there may be some changes. However, Emperor Zhao rushed back because of the riots in the country. She was afraid of losing the opportunity, so she disobeyed your order and took that modern hot weapon mobile brigade to reinforce the border, but she didn't notice that the Qiang State was invading, so she immediately rushed back to Huaiyuan, on the way Passing through Yanzhou, I found that tax evasion and reliance by officials and people in Yanzhou is a common practice, and the streets are full of gangsters and bandits, and there may be accidents. Minister Liao ordered the brigade to station [-] miles away from Yanzhou, and wrote to ask for your instructions."

"It's really pressing the gourd and picking up the ladle, so I don't worry!" Zhou Huai's words made Wu Guisi and Jiang Wenyuan unable to understand who the "not worrying" was referring to.

Zhou Huai didn't say much, but said boldly: "How can she, the Minister of Finance, take people to collect taxes in person?! Xiao Sizi, immediately count the number of people, and the wounded soldiers will stay, and everyone else will go day and night to strictly control them. Zhouzhou, I want to see if those bastards dare to rely on my taxes after eating the leopard's guts!"

Wu Guisi responded, and without saying a word, he went to gather his troops and prepared to mobilize his troops to attack Yanzhou.

Jiang Wenyuan grabbed the sleeve of the excited Wu Guisi and continued to pester: "Did you wash your hands just now? Also, I'm going to write a letter to tell those guys that the eldest princess is not as beautiful as Miss Qiwei, so even though she is so talented Haven't compared yet, but it doesn't look like she's going to act like a spoiled child. Generally speaking, it's Miss Qiwei who has the upper hand, so they don't have to worry about it."

Wu Guisi ignored Jiang Wenyuan, and directly dragged Jiang Wenyuan out of Zhou Huai's hearing range with brute force.But in my mind, I remembered the appearance of the eldest princess I had seen before.The other party was not like Liao Qiwei, whose every frown and smile was full of charm, but with a handsome appearance, clear eyes, openness and righteousness between his brows, and an extremely pure and comfortable smile.It's not the kind of spring breeze blowing on the face, but a feeling of lightness like orchids.Not magnificent, not alienated, not warm, just so natural, but the feeling is just right.

In his opinion, there is no comparison between Liao Qiwei and the eldest princess, but these have nothing to do with them, whoever he likes is his own business.Wu Guisi didn't want to discuss these things with Jiang Wenyuan, but asked him a question: "Why are you asking that Miss Lu with that wretched look?"

"Curiosity! I really want to know what Miss Lu looks like who was mercifully treated by Master Huai!"

"Don't bite down on the words 'merciful', it sounds weird."

"Hey, your mind is really unhealthy!"

"It's you who are too obscene."

Zhou Huai watched the two of them walking away noisily, before turning around and getting into the carriage.

The eldest princess in the car was digging out a booklet recording the ins and outs of Zhou Huai's original dam construction, reading it with gusto.

When she was just ten years old, when she was first consecrated as a saint, the Qiang Kingdom relied on its military strength and wanted to take advantage of the northwest, so it secretly expanded the border forest boundary to the northwest by nearly a thousand hectares.But at that time, although Zhou Huai was young, he didn't want to be bullied, and his methods were very ruthless. He directly artificially bred nearly ten thousand poisonous bees that reproduce quickly and are highly poisonous, and put them into the forest, stinging to death. There were many garrisons and livestock in the Qiang country, and finally the Qiang country set fire to destroy the entire forest.

After this incident, Zhou Huai was regarded as the knot of the Qiang Kingdom.Beginning in the spring of the next year, Zhou Huai will design and build three reinforced concrete dams with a height of [-] meters in the northwest section of the Cangyuan River that flows from the northwest through the Qiang Kingdom. Waiting for two years of domestic water can even reduce the water flow of the Cangyuan River downstream by two-fifths during the dry season. When the Qiang Kingdom discovered the seriousness of this matter, two of the three dams had been built.

After Zhou Huai got into the carriage, seeing what the eldest princess was looking at, she didn't seem to notice that she had come in, so she sneaked up to take a look, and found that the eldest princess was studying her own affairs again, so she lay down on the side bored, He stared deeply at the princess's face.

After the eldest princess felt Zhou Huai's gaze, it was already a stick of incense. She looked up at Zhou Huai who was staring blankly at her, and looked down at her clothes. After finding that there was no problem, she asked Zhou Huai in doubt: "What's wrong?"

"You've grown up." Zhou Huai not only looked deeply, but even his tone was a bit deep.

What nerves are you having again!The eldest princess looked at Zhou Huai speechlessly for a while, and finally reminded him very seriously: "Yes, I. And you, you haven't reached Ji."

Zhou Huai moved closer to the eldest princess, scanned her from beginning to end, and then said softly: "Well, eighteen, good age, you can eat."

Um? ! !The eldest princess thought for a moment, and then decisively kicked Zhou Huai out of the carriage!
