"Why is there a problem with the embankment on the Liaohe River?" Jing Chen is not as clear about Fenglin's situation as Jing Xue is, but from Jing Xue's expression, he can tell that the collapse of the embankment on the Liaohe River is definitely not that simple.

"I didn't know at first that the embankment of the Liaohe River collapsed very strangely. There are a lot of people there. If someone with a heart did it, the consequences would be unimaginable. However, from what I have learned recently, it is the fault of local officials." Jing Xue gently Sighed.

Hearing what he said, Jing Chen probably guessed what was going on.

It is said that the town near the Liao River is one of the three richest towns in Fenglin. Liao'an area is not close to the political center of Fenglin, but because of its geographical environment and climate, it becomes one of the three richest towns in Fenglin.

Being able to take office there is a dream for officials.

The Liao'an generation had frequent trade, and it was a gathering place for merchants. The prosperity there was once higher than that of Luofeng City. , gathered a lot of so-called "family".

Among the three most fertile areas in Fenglin, one is Luofeng City, where the relatives of the emperor and high-ranking cabinet officials live. The second is the Qinglin generation, which is adjacent to another country, Ruishuang Kingdom. Most of the people from there are Scholars, many officials go back there after resigning and returning to their hometowns, so there are mostly scholars there.

And the last one is the Liao'an generation formed by the gathering of merchants and merchants, and there are many merchant families living there.

The officials who go there will naturally have to face the "filial piety" of the businessmen.

I have been an official over there for a long time, and I guess half of my heart is gone.

Jing Chen thought, no matter what kind of intentions those officials had at the beginning, as long as they benefited from others and changed back to one or two, after a long time, they fell into the eyes of money, and no amount of money would satisfy them. greedy.

Although there are many merchants in the Liao'an generation, there are also farmers there. After all, there are rivers passing by there, which are suitable for planting agriculture.

The imperial court attaches great importance to the situation there. Because of the long rainy season in Fenglin and the heavy rainfall, it allocates a sum of money every year for the government to take charge of repairing the dam.

Even if the rainy season is one month earlier this year, if the dam is carefully repaired every year, even if everyone is caught off guard by the rainy season this year, the dam will not be a big deal, but I didn't expect the dam to collapse now.

Now it seems that the annual repairs to the dam are definitely not in place, and it is not known where the money allocated by the imperial court goes.

The dikes collapsed unexpectedly, and villages and towns along the river were flooded.

The time when the dam collapsed was shortly after nightfall. Although it was not too late, some farmers would fall asleep very early for the next day’s work. Nightfall was when everyone was sleepy. Many people were submerged by the river while they were asleep. Not even a chance to escape.

It is said that when he received the report from his subordinates, the county magistrate was having fun with the girls in the brothel. When he received the report from his servants, the first thing he did was not to save people, but to hide the matter like this.

By the time Jun Shaojue received the news, it was already the fourth day of the flood.

No matter how far Liao'an and Fenglin City are, such a serious disaster is an urgent report. If you hurry up, even if there is heavy rain at the moment, you can reach Fenglin City in two days and one night, but Jun Shaojue received the news But it was the fourth day of the flood.

No wonder the messenger was so anxious when he sent someone to find Jun Shaoqian.

Jing Chen frowned and thought.

"The shops of the Jing family and the Mu family in Liao'an were also affected. Your second sister-in-law and I were worried that people in Liao'an would take this opportunity to cleanse our forces, so we sent people there."

"Has Jun Shaojue decided what to do?" Jing Chen asked.

"I haven't got any news yet, but I just heard from Xiaojin that he lost his temper in the imperial study. Now all the cabinet officials are there, and all the board and lodging are staying in the palace. The order should be issued soon." Jing Jing Xue said.

"However, brother, the scope of the Liao'an generation is very wide, and there are many counties and villages. Every official is not greedy, is it?" Jing Chen asked.

"Who knows, anyway, Jun Shaojue has long wanted to attack the Liao'an generation." The Liao'an generation is fat, and the government and business have colluded since ancient times. In the past, there was no reason for the court to want to do something, but now this happened...

Jun Shaojue finds it strange that he doesn't study landscape.

"However, after this incident, the imperial court will definitely send people to Liao'an. Jun Shaojue is determined to take this opportunity to attack Liao'an. Then he must let someone who is trustworthy and capable enough go. Who do you think it will be?" ?” Jing Xue winked at him, laughing heartlessly.

"Jun Shaojue's ascension to the throne is still the same, he naturally has his own people under his command, military officers are not needed, and civil officials..." Jing Chen really couldn't guess for a while.

But looking at his brother like a thief, he must be someone he knows.

But he doesn't know many people in Fenglin, and Jun Shaojue can't send Liao Jin there. Although Liao Jin is powerful enough and capable enough, he has always been labeled as a harem. Liao Jin You can help Jun Shaojue manage the Jianghu affairs, but if you really want to let Liao Jin go to politics, I am afraid that the former officials will have great opinions.

"Could it be possible... Do you think he will let Shaoqian pass?" Jing Chen suddenly realized, after all, Jun Shaoqian has a much higher position than those officials. The emperor's own brother, one person is less than ten thousand. , although he rarely appeared in the court before, but Jun Shaojue never took back the rights given to him, as long as he is not a fool, he will know how much the emperor attaches importance to his own brother.

Jun Shaoqian is powerful and capable, and Jing Xue hinted that Jing Chen knew that person before, so Jing Chen guessed that Jun Shaoqian must be the candidate.

"Hehe, your brain is quite bright." Jing Xue looked at his younger brother and said with a smile, "Do you think there is anyone else capable of managing the Liao'an generation properly besides him?"

"I'm not familiar with Fenglin's situation." Jing Chen pouted.

"Oh?" Jing Xue dragged out the tone, "How did I hear that someone made a lot of effort to investigate Fenglin's current situation and the factions among officials? And it seems that when I got the news, I was in a A month ago? Isn't this one month enough for you to understand clearly?" Jing Xue smirked.

Jing Chen felt that his forehead was bursting with veins.

His brother is really...

"You know what you know, what to expose me for." He said angrily.

Jing Xue laughed loudly: "I'm your brother, it's better to be exposed by me than to be exposed by others, isn't it?"

Jing Chen bowed his head in silence, really didn't want to say anything more.

But Jing Xue couldn't stop talking about it once he started. He smiled and said, "Do you want me to give you the information I have? But, in fact, why do you let your subordinates understand? If you ask Jun Shaoqian , I think he must know but not talk, he must be very happy for you to ask him various questions."

"Brother, which side are you on?" Jing Chen managed to avoid beating his brother up - although he couldn't beat him, but he wouldn't fight back until his brother.

"Unless you have an accident, I will join in wherever there is excitement." Jing Xue said with a smile.

Jing Chen didn't speak.

The sound of the rain outside the window was ticking, much quieter than before, but it didn't seem to stop.

Jing Chen was inexplicably agitated when he heard the sound of rain.

And today is the second day Jun Shaoqian entered the palace.

Jing Chen felt that if Jun Shaoqian was really sent to Liao'an, would Jun Shaoqian leave immediately, after all, the matter in Liao'an was very urgent.

"Remember Lan Yan?" At this moment, Jing Xue asked again.

Jing Chen nodded: "Zhuyue is still on your side, have you forgotten? But, it is said that your side has been in chaos recently?" Jing Chen asked.

When Jing Xue took Lan Yan to the Mu Mansion, besides helping Lan Yan, the rest was to scare off the people in the Mu Mansion?

"That's it. They want to touch Lan Yan, but there is no reason. Since they can't find me happy, don't expect me to swallow my anger." Jing Xue shrugged, "The one from Lan Yan's family has no information yet, and there is no information about it. I don’t know how long it will last, but it’s raining now, and our actions are greatly hindered.” Jing Xue sighed, “However, I got news that someone from Liao’an seemed to be involved in this matter, so I just learned today. I'll come to you for help."

"I?"

Jing Chen was not sure what Jing Xue meant, and was a little surprised for a while.

"That's right, when you go to Liao'an, help me to do some research. Although Lan Yan is my subordinate's wife, for my brother's sake, you should do my second brother a favor." Jing Xue said sincerely.

Jing Chen was surprised: "Why are you so sure that I will go to Liao'an?"

"If Jun Shaoqian is sent to Liao'an, I don't believe you will stay here." Jing Xue snorted, and looked at Jing Chen with "don't try to hide it from me".

"Is there any connection between this?" Jing Xue looked surprised.

"Just wait, if they really decide to shoot Jun Shaoqian, then he will definitely find ways to bring you there." Jing Xue spread his hands, "He can do it, and Liao'an's side is mixed, it must be There are forces involved in Luofeng City, and you bear the name of his lord, someone will definitely attack you."

"It's as if I can't protect myself." Jing Chen snorted.

Jing Xue laughed, put away his joking attitude, and said to Jing Chen seriously: "Sometimes, he wants to protect you, not because he doesn't believe that you can't protect yourself, but because he wants to do it." Just like him and Mu Wen Yan, even though he understands the other party's skills, he is still very worried about the other party when encountering something.

It's not a disbelief in the other party, but an instinctive desire to protect your sweetheart from the bottom of your heart.

Jing Xue patted Jing Chen on the shoulder: "You can wait for Jun Shaoqian's actions, but now, let me tell you what you need to do first."

"If he doesn't plan to ask me to go to the Liao'an area, or if he won't go at all, Jun Shaojue might send someone else there, right?" Jing Chen swallowed.

Jing Xue shrugged: "I have a lot of people under my command. If my calculation is wrong, it would be good to send another person there at that time, wouldn't it?"

But Jing Xue knew that what he thought was never wrong, not only because he was extremely smart, but also because he knew Fenglin's court better than Jing Chen.

Jun Shaoqian's trip to Liao'an is imperative.

The author has something to say: As a person who didn’t start school until after the 3th, I feel very happy that the holiday is over, but I looked at my class schedule for the next semester, which only has classes on Tuesdays... I don’t want to be too happy_(:[-]∠)_

In fact, there is no difference between school and holidays...

The only difference is that I was notified to hand in the first draft of the thesis just after returning to school, and the person who didn't write a word said... I'm going to write the paper
