My nemesis is not right after rebirth

The gates of Jizhou City were opened wide, and Wei Heng handed over the food to the officials who came to hand it over, and after having them distributed to the people, he asked where Rong Chen was, and immediately rushed to the prison.

Wei Heng was about to go in when Rong Chen came out and met him at the door.

Rong Chen's first reaction was not to let Wei Heng see the blood inside, so he immediately stopped in front of Wei Heng.

"Master Rong, I don't know if there was anything in the interrogation?"

Rong Chen handed the confession in his hand to someone, and Wei Heng flipped through it on the spot. Seeing the record about the fraud in the imperial examination three years ago, there was a faint smile in his eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Rong."

Rong Chen looked at the dewdrops on Wei Heng's clothes and the faint bruises under his eyelids, he paused for a moment, a trace of distress flashed in his eyes, and then he spoke slowly.

"It's okay, His Royal Highness is exhausted from running around for food, and he must have not closed his eyes for a whole day and two nights, so let's go back and have a good rest. I will arrange everything here."

"Alright."

Wei Heng had been holding on to his spirit before, but now that the food problem is solved, he can be regarded as relaxed, and sleepiness swept over his whole body.

After responding, he turned around and left, kicking up a little bit of dust.

Rong Chen watched Wei Heng's back gradually disappear from sight, only closed his eyes, and continued to return to the prison for interrogation.

Wei Heng slept for a day and a night, Wei Yi kept guarding in front of the door, not letting anyone disturb him.

Wei Heng lifted the quilt, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and looked at the bright light outside, and it took a long time for him to recover.

He got up and poured a cup of tea to moisten his throat.

Wei Yi heard movement inside the house and knocked on the door outside.

"Master, Lord Rong invites you to go to the yamen servant to have a talk."

"understood."

After Wei Heng tidied up, he went to the Yanzhou government office.

As soon as he entered the door, the scorching golden lotus red-patterned uniform set off his brows, stars and eyes, which captured Wei Heng's attention.

Wei Heng paused, his breathing stagnated, and after realizing it, he carried him to his seat.

"Your Highness, I have found out the cause of the severe drought in Jizhou and the banditry outside."

"During Yao Wan's tenure as magistrate, he was corrupt and accepted bribes. All the silver allocated by the court for water conservancy construction went into his private treasury, resulting in the abandonment of many wells and canals here. Whenever there was a drought, the drought would become more serious. Moreover, the people had difficulty in surviving and were forced to Helplessly became a bandit."

"In addition, the silver that went into his private treasury disappeared, and I don't know whose treasury it went into."

There was no big surprise on Wei Heng's face, and he made one or two guesses based on various circumstances.

"It is imperative to rebuild the wells and canals. I want to go to investigate. I don't know what Mr. Rong wants?"

"Naturally, I will go with His Royal Highness. In addition, I have asked Rong Zi to recruit a group of craftsmen in this field, and I just took them to have a look. If there is no accident, the work can start in about two days."

After speaking, Rong Chen and Wei Heng got up and left the yamen servants, heading to the farmland.

The fields stretch as far as the eye can see, and as far as the eye can see, there are only small dry cracks and dead crop seedlings.

The open channel not far away is dry, and the slightest gap is also cracked.

As soon as the two arrived, they followed the craftsman to investigate around, and on the way there, they had already inquired carefully, and they roughly understood the principle of the well.

I learned from the local people that this well and canal was not abandoned a few years ago, but the time of a severe drought was very coincidental, just in time for the open canal to dry up, and in autumn and winter, the water from melting ice and snow could not be replenished as before. So part of the well was dried up.

It stands to reason that the dry part is also a part, as long as the prefect is well built, it is not a big problem, but the prefect here in Luozhou is Yao Wanzhen.

Over the years, the wells and ditches have been abandoned for a long time, and the cause and effect have caused everything that happened today.
