Lin Haixiu raised his eyebrows and said: "Since the eldest princess has seen it, the officials will no longer beat around the bush. The floods in Yangzhou have been deepening for a long time, and the government has rescued disasters every year, but it has displaced the nearby salt people every year. In the final analysis, it is because there is no thought Where is the root, the salt field outside the city is low and flat, but the Jing River happens to pass through the middle, if the water can be diverted into the river once and for all, the surrounding salt people and the people will no longer suffer from floods.”

Zhaoyang put down the cup in his hand, and said softly: "Lin Yushi is only thinking of the common people, and it will benefit the future. If I don't agree, will I become a sinner?"

"The eldest princess understands the righteousness, so she will not refuse." Lin Hai's tone was calm but loud: "Besides, the eldest princess likes Li Buddha. The Buddha said that 'all living beings are equal'. How can the eldest princess have the heart to let all living beings suffer from homelessness again."

"It turns out that Lin Yushi is also a Buddhist and Taoist. That's a coincidence." Princess Zhaoyang's eyes were calm and her tone was calm: "But what if I don't agree."

Standing up, Princess Zhaoyang looked at the carefully crafted house: "This yard was the first time I came to Yangzhou to see it. It has been nearly 20 years, and every two or three years, I will come to live in it for a few days. , I know everything in the courtyard like the back of my hand, so..."

Without continuing, Zhaoyang looked at Lin Hai quietly: "This matter..." Zhaoyang was not allowed to continue, Lin Hai said slowly: "This matter is imminent, whether the eldest princess should or should not, the officials will release water to release the flood .”

Raising his head, Lin Hai's eyes were firm and his expression was majestic. Even Zhao Yang was stunned by that demeanor of controlling everything, "You know my identity, but you still dare to say that."

Lin Hai sneered lightly: "The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Even if the eldest princess reports this matter to the imperial court, the lower officials will dare to say it."

"Okay, Lin Tanhua is indeed worthy of his name." Zhaoyang raised his eyebrows and said grandly, "Lin Yushi is the No. 1 censor who dares to talk to me like this, and I'm afraid there won't be any in the future. "

Lin Hai sneered in his heart, but his face remained calm: "Thank you, Eldest Princess." Turning his head, Zhao Yang said to the steward at the side: "Order everyone to pack things up."

"Master, this..." Before the steward finished speaking, he heard a crisp voice shout: "Fourth aunt, where do we live?" Ning Dong just ran in from the yard, his red face was still covered with sweat: "The yard is gone, shall we sleep on the street, Lin Yushi..."

Ning Dong looked at Lin Hai, and said relentlessly: "You said it lightly, the good yard is gone, where do you want us to live, could it be your house?"

"Xiaodong." Zhaoyang's face darkened, and the stern look in his eyes made Ningdong shrink back, but he quickly raised his head again: "Fourth Gu, what I said is the truth, if you agree, where will we live? So I don't agree to this."

Zhao Yang patted Ning Dong on the shoulder: "Si Gu took you back to the capital, you said you miss Grandma Huang these days, let's go back and have a look." Looking at Lin Hai again, Zhao Yang said: "Don't worry Lin Yushi, Yangzhou can have a censor like you, which is the blessing of the people and the court."

For some reason, Yinzhen felt a little ashamed in the face of Zhaoyang who understood righteousness. In fact, the reason why he spared no effort in this matter was that Yinzhen had other plans.

Yinzhen is a person who must take revenge. This time, he used the name of building a canal to plot against Li Ren, the magistrate. Last time Daiyu came back, Jia Lian was plotted against, and Yinzhen, who had just become Lin Hai, was once in a dilemma. , although the final plan was to kill Wang Yi, but it made Yinzhen always brood on Li Ren behind the scenes.

The location of the canal was chosen by Lin Hai on purpose. If Li Ren refuses this, he will lose popular support in Yangzhou. On this road, the Zhuangzi of high-ranking officials and nobles has a lot of family business. If he agrees, he will offend these people. I am afraid that the road in Yangzhou will be more difficult in the future.

After thousands of calculations, what Yinzhen didn't count was that the eldest princess who was famous in Jinghua back then was also included in the list, and she understood the righteousness so well.

Ning Dong shouted unconvinced: "Si Gu, it's not fair. A good man asked him to do it, but we have to sleep on the street. Besides, we have to leave, and we won't be able to leave for a day or two. Lin Yushi, what do you think? Since you want to be a good person, let us live in your mansion."

"Xiaodong, don't talk nonsense. Lin Yushi is working for the benefit of the people. Didn't the emperor often teach you to love the people like a son, and civil affairs are as big as the sky." Just after Zhaoyang finished speaking, Ning Dong whispered: "But the emperor also said I don't want to sleep in a dirty place."

"No." Thinking about the mess of the inn, Ning Dong couldn't help but walked up to Lin Hai and coughed pretending to be majestic: "Lin Yushi, if you don't arrange a place for me to live, I will If you don't leave, let me tell you, my Seventh Highness is not easy to bully."

Suddenly, with a flash of inspiration, Ning Dong rolled his eyes, and then said: "Lin Yushi, the courtyard of your Lin Mansion must not be small..." Without waiting for Lin Hai to refute, Ning Dong said crisply: "That's it. , let's live in your house first, not to mention there are people playing with me."

Turning around and holding Zhaoyang's hand, Ning Dong said: "Si Gu, let's go live in the Lin Mansion. Since Lin Yushi dares to let us have no land to live in, I will let him have no land to live in." ', hee hee, it really makes sense."

"Ning Dong." Zhaoyang said angrily, "Shut up for Fourth Aunt, it's none of your business..." "Eldest Princess, in fact, what His Royal Highness said is also reasonable. It will also delay for a day or two, if you don't mind, there are a few vacant rooms in the lower official's mansion." Lin Hai said unhurriedly: "Besides, it is the honor of the lower official that His Royal Highness can see the humble place."

"Hey." Ning Dong smiled and said, "It's been so long since Lin Yushi said these few words. You invited us to go, don't say we use power to overwhelm others, Fourth Aunt, anyway, I don't know." Live in a posthouse."

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhao Yang said to Lin Hai, "It's only a day or two, then there will be Censor Lao Lin." Lin Hai took a step back and said, "This is what I should do. The eldest princess understands righteousness. On behalf of the people of Yangzhou, Princess Xie, I wish you complete success."

Calling the attendants behind him, Lin Hai said: "Go back and tell the housekeeper and the girl to clean up." Ning Dong shouted unwillingly: "Hey, tell you housekeeper, I like clean and bright places, and the pool There must be fish in it, I want to fish and grill it."

When Daiyu saw Zhaoyang and Ningdong, it was already afternoon, and the gloomy sunlight shone on the path in front of the door, with spots.

Stepping forward, Daiyu hurriedly saluted: "Daiyu has met the eldest princess." Zhaoyang said with an easy-going smile, "Miss Lin, you're welcome, I don't want to publicize my identity, so I can avoid saying 'eldest princess', if you don't dislike it , Miss Lin followed Xiaodong and the others and called 'fourth aunt'."

"Then Daiyu is worse than being respectful." Daiyu has always been a transparent person: "Daiyu took the fourth aunt to see if she is satisfied." Zhaoyang said with a smile: "It's better to be a girl, more sensible, Lin Censor is really enviable, and those brats can't compare to him."

Ning Dong coughed seriously: "Fourth Aunt." "You don't need to yell, stay here, don't cause trouble, and let Fourth Aunt be quiet." Zhaoyang deliberately lowered his face, and nodded to Ning Dong: " Remember your identity, don't embarrass Fourth Aunt." Ning Dong made a grimace: "I'll write it down."

In the magistrate's mansion, the teacup in Li Ren's hand was slammed onto the ground, and the remnants splashed everywhere. The servant girl who was waiting beside him trembled uncontrollably.

"Come here, come and clean up." Li Long, the official historian, called the servant girl: "Clean up quickly." After finishing the order, Li Long said in a low voice: "This is the end of the matter, my lord, don't be angry, the most urgent thing now is to think about how to explain it. "

Li Ren gritted his teeth, and said bitterly: "Lin Hai, this step counts as your victory. It not only demolished my yard, but also made me almost offend the rich and gentry in Yangzhou."

Li Long came up and hesitated for a moment: "I don't know if my lord feels that since Lin Yushi recovered from his illness, he seems to have changed a lot."

Li Ren squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "Don't tell me I didn't pay attention, but when you mentioned it, I also feel that it is different. He is a considerate person, and he does not seek merit but seeks no fault. The two of us have been in business for four years. His The doctrine of the golden mean has not changed, but what happened last time was that he acted vigorously and cruelly, which is indeed not like his behavior, but this time..."

"Li Long, have you ever heard that a serious illness can change a person's character?" Li Ren turned his head and asked.Li Long thought for a while: "I heard that someone came back from the dead and came back to life."

"Greatly enlightened." Li Ren sneered self-deprecatingly: "It's right to be cruel, it seems that you have to be careful about this Lin Yushi in the future." Li Long echoed: "My lord is right, be prepared." After a pause, Li Long Then he said: "The eldest princess and the seventh prince went to the Lin Mansion, Lin Hai really has a good look at this cheap pick."

Li Ren snorted: "The eldest princess is a woman, it's inconvenient for me to see her, but doesn't she have a daughter?"

"Master is wise."

The autumn morning sun was soft and misty, Daiyu came back from Lin Geng in the front yard, and just walked through the hanging flower gate, she smelled a faint smell: "Zicuckoo, do you smell anything?"

Zicuckoo took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Young lady's nose is really sharp. At this time, it may be the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus in the backyard." Daiyu shook her head: "No, I can still distinguish the scent of flowers. This smell..."

"I smell it too, the girl seems to be..." The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Fish smells." Zijuan turned to look at the kitchen: "Is the kitchen cooking fish?"

Daiyu gave Zijuan a white look: "Silly girl, you cook fish early in the morning, and you think everyone is like you." Zijuan smiled and said, "No wonder Second Grandma Lian always praises the girl for her clever tongue, saying that she scolds others. Come without a dirty word."

Daiyu smiled and threw the handkerchief: "Zijuan, you are so courageous these days, you even dare to make fun of me, see if I don't tear your mouth." Zijuan hurriedly laughed: "Girl, please forgive me!" , I don’t dare anymore.”

The two were arguing as they walked, but the smell became stronger and stronger. Zijuan couldn't help but said: "Girl, this smell of fish comes from the garden..." Suddenly remembering that there are more people in the house now, Daiyu looked at Zijuan. Juan glanced, and the two thought of a person in unison: "Go and see."
