Master is a white moonlight

The first thing the high priest did after returning to the palace was to call all the officials to discuss matters related to the new terraced fields.

Which county is used as a precedent to build terraced fields?Who will oversee the work?

Questions like these must be dealt with one by one, and have a long-term plan.

The early court started at Chen time, and the court has not retreated after nearly two hours of discussion.

Xuan Loi was dressed in a complicated and luxurious crescent white court dress, sitting on the gold-plated dragon chair, propping her head with one hand, looking extremely impatient, with a terrifying coldness in her eyes.

"Have you had enough noise?" Xuan Qian frowned, her phoenix eyes stared at the ministers through the jade scorpion hanging in front of her eyes, and slightly raised the tails of her eyes.

The voice was cold, with the usual majesty of a king.

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy Hall of Supreme Harmony suddenly became completely silent.

"Prime Minister Zuo." Xuan Qiao lowered her hand supporting her head, sat up straight, and her eyes fell on Prime Minister Zuo in the crowd.

"The old prime minister is here." Prime Minister Zuo stood in front of the officials in indigo blue court clothes, and when he heard his name being called, he stood in the center of the hall with a white jade board in his hand.

"Tell me what you think about building terraced fields?" Xuan Qian looked at Prime Minister Zuo with a pair of phoenix eyes, waiting for this respected old minister to speak.

"The old minister very much agrees with the construction of terraced fields." Zuo Cheng bowed to the high priest, respectfully said.

A flash of light flashed in Xuanqi's eyes for an instant, and he frowned and looked at Prime Minister Zuo in puzzlement, feeling a burst of doubt in his heart.

"Then Prime Minister Zuo has a suitable supervisor in mind?" Xuan Qian pretended to be casual and said, but in fact, she had already made up her mind.

"To the High Priest." Prime Minister Zuo straightened his hunched back, and then said, "The old minister is incompetent, and he couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while."

"Zhao Shilang." Xuan Qiao's eyes shifted to the household servant in the crowd, and said calmly, "Who do you think should be the supervisor?"

"Report to the high priest." The minister of household department stood up from among the officials, holding a white jade board in both hands, first bowed to the high priest, and then replied respectfully, "I feel that the new terraced fields belong to the construction of farmland canals. The first type of matters should be handed over to the Ministry of Industry and Lu Sikong to be responsible."

What Zhao Shilang said was reasonable and well-founded, but he had a small calculation in his heart, so that this hot potato should never fall into the hands of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

On the surface, this "terrace supervisor" is a lucrative job, but judging from the high priest's usual behavior, if things go wrong, he will definitely lose his life.

When Xuan Loi heard this, her entire face sank, and a faint sneer overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Lu Sikong." Xuan Qiao slowly raised her drooping eyebrows, her eyes fell directly on Lu Sikong's body, "What do you think?"

"Go back to the High Priest." Lu Sikong stood in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony holding white jade boards in both hands, "I also think that the repair of terraced fields should be handed over to our engineering department, but..."

A chill appeared in Xuanqi's eyes for an instant, and she said coldly, "But what?"

"I report to the High Priest." Lu Sikong said convincingly, "Although the flood in the south has been alleviated, there are many follow-up matters. competent."

"That's all, let's go." Xuan Mo stood up with a flick of his sleeves, and the twelve bells hanging in front of his eyes made a crisp sound of strings of beads.

Stepping on the white deerskin boots down the jade steps, he walked towards the entrance of the main hall without looking back.

"Congratulations to the high priest!" All the officials bowed and saluted one after another, respectfully saying loudly.

After leaving the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Xuan Loi did not go back to her bedroom, nor did she go to Leng Yiluo's Fengning Hall, but went straight to the Imperial Study.

At noon, Feng Ning Hall.

Leng Yizhen sat in front of the table in an emerald green robe, resting his chin on one hand and resting his elbow on the dining table.He lowered his head and glanced at the delicious food on the big table in front of him, then looked up at the door.

"Zhu Hua, is the high priest coming down early?" Leng Yijiao raised his head and looked at Zhu Hua who was wearing a pink palace attire beside him.

"Go back to Your Royal Highness, the high priest has just left the court." Biyu explained softly while serving the blood swallow porridge for Princess Fengyi, "Now I went to the imperial study again."

"The imperial study?" Leng Yijiao frowned slightly, and took the jade spoon from Zhu Hua's hands, "Has she eaten yet?"

"No meal."

"Then..." Leng Yizhen paused, and continued to ask, "The high priest's lunch will be delivered to the royal study, right?"

"The high priest doesn't give orders, and the servants dare not make decisions on their own."

"..." Hearing this, Leng Yizhen frowned even tighter, and put the jade spoon in his hand back into the white jade bowl.

"Your Highness, but the food is not to your liking?" Zhu Hua looked carefully, and asked in a cautious and soft voice, "Your servant, let the people in the imperial dining room redo it."

"No, no!" Leng Yizhen waved his hands repeatedly at Zhu Hua, his eyes suddenly lit up, "By the way, is there a food box?"

"Yes." Zhu Hua nodded, and replied softly, "Your Highness, please wait a moment, this servant will ask someone to fetch the food box."

In the imperial study room, Xuan Love sat quietly in front of the desk.He was still wearing the complicated court attire that morning, and the crown was still neatly placed in the center of his head.

The slender fingers with well-defined bones are holding a brush saturated with ink, and a cowhide map is spread flat in front of the desk.

The map simply shows the trend of the mountains of Ji Kingdom and the distribution of rivers.

Xuan Qiao frowned slightly, staring intently at the map in front of her, not knowing where the tip of the pen should land.

He watched so intently that he didn't even notice when Leng Yizhen came.

"Xiao'er, why are you here?" Xuan Qiao raised her head and saw Leng Yiluo standing in the middle of the study.

Most of the gloomy expression on his face disappeared in an instant, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, revealing a soft smile.

"I'll bring you lunch." Leng Yizhen raised the food box in front of his eyes, pouted at Xuan Qiao, and pretended to be angry, "I know you work hard, but you can't even eat lunch, right?" .”

Xuanqi remained silent, the smile on her lips grew even bigger.Standing up and walking in front of Leng Yijiao, he took the food box with both hands and handed it to the maid at the side.

Xuan Qiao took Leng Yijiao's hands, and rubbed the back of the other's smooth white hands with fingertips, "Have you had your lunch yet?"

"Eat a little."

"Then Jian'er will have lunch with the teacher, okay?"

"okay."

Xuan Mou took Leng Yijiao's hand and went straight to the low wooden table by the window, and the two sat facing each other by the window.

The palace maids had already placed all the food in the food box on the table, and arranged the dishes for the masters before bowing and retreating.

"Why are you so busy as soon as you come back?" Leng Yijiao asked while holding the food for Xuanqi, "What are you busy with?"

"Repairing the terraced fields." Xuan Qiao picked up the shrimp that Leng Yijiao put in her bowl with chopsticks, took a small bite, and chewed carefully.

"Have you encountered any difficulties?"

Xuan Qiao nodded her chin slightly, and after swallowing the shrimp in her mouth, she answered, "No one is willing to take up the position of 'terrace supervisor'. The two old foxes from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households pushed each other. Go, and refuse to accept the errand."

"Why is no one willing to be the supervisor?"

"Because on the surface, the position of supervisor looks like a lucrative job, and he can take advantage of the opportunity to make money." Xuan love took a spoonful of blood swallow porridge with a spoon, lowered his head and took a sip, and said calmly, "It's actually bitter. I'm tired, if I can't do it well."

"What will happen if it can't be done?" Leng Yijiao used chopsticks to pick up another shrimp for Xuan Qiao, and his anxious tone could not be concealed.

"One word—death." Xuan Qiaoyun said lightly, as if such a thing was very common to her.

"You!" Leng Yizhen stared at Xuanqi with wide eyes, and squeezed out a few words after a while, "You are too domineering!"

"Xian'er doesn't know something." Xuan Qiao put down the jade spoon in her hand, and explained patiently, "I have already thought about it as a teacher. If the new terraced field construction can be carried out smoothly this time, the supervisor will be greatly rewarded. On the contrary, It will also be punished."

"Where there are heavy rewards, there are heavy punishments, and the two must check and balance each other."

"Xuan Qiao, I understand what you mean." Leng Yijiao boldly expressed his thoughts, "But you will kill people at every turn, and the punishment is too heavy."

"Is the punishment very heavy?" Xuan Qiao stopped holding the vegetables in her hands, raised her eyes to look at Leng Yizhen, and asked in doubt.

"Of course." Leng Yizhen sighed and continued, "Think about it for yourself, what could be more important than life."

"My life is gone, what's the use of taking more money and property?"

Xuanqian stopped making a sound, frowned slightly, thinking seriously about what Leng Yijiao said.

Since Xuan Qian took control of the government, the past ten years have been strict and tyrannical.There are heavy rewards and heavy punishments, and the lives of others are nothing more than mere ants in Xuan Qiao's eyes.

"Xian'er's words, I wrote it down for the teacher." Xuan Qiao's amber eyes sank, and she picked up a piece of cod with chopsticks and put it into Leng Yiluo's bowl, "Come, Jian'er, have a taste of this fish."

"Well, good." Leng Yizhen picked up the chopsticks beside him, picked up the cod in the bowl, brought it to his lips and took a bite.

Leng Yijiao just thought about bringing food to Xuan Qiao, but didn't have time to eat.I was hungry at the moment, so I ate unceremoniously.

After lunch, Xuan Chi invited Leng Yizhen to stay in the imperial study, and humbly asked Leng Yizhen about the repair of the terraced fields.

The two sat together on the gold-plated dragon chair, and the map of Ji Kingdom was laid out in front of the desk.

"Xing'er, which of these two counties do you think you should choose?" Xuan Qiao held the brush in her hand, and placed the tip of the brush between "Xingfang County" and "Ruchen County" on the map.

"Let me take a look." Leng Yizhen looked intently at the two counties on the map, thinking seriously.

The two counties are far apart, one in the northwest and the other in the southwest.But they all have the same characteristics, that is, the soil is poor or mountainous and hilly, and the cultivated land is less than one-fifth of the entire county.

"Is there a lot of loess in this Xingfang County?" Leng Yijiao looked down at the geographical location of "Xingfang County", then looked up at Xuanqi and asked for confirmation.

"En, yes." Xuan Qiao nodded her chin and said clearly.

"This Xingfang County is located in the northwest, and the soil is mostly loess. Although the loess can be cultivated, it is not suitable for building terraced fields because of its loose soil and strong water permeability." Leng Yizhen lowered her beautiful eyebrows and pointed The tip landed on "Xingfang County" on the map, "Compared to this, Ruchen County is much better."

"From the point of view of the terrain, this Ruchen County is dominated by mountains and hills, and the soil is mostly red soil." Leng Yijiao's snow-white and slender fingertips moved from "Xingfang County" on the map to "Ruchen County", He explained carefully, "The water content of red soil is high, and the crops that can be planted are very good. The most suitable is to grow rice, of course, tea trees and sugar cane can also be planted; moreover, Ruchen County is mostly hilly terrain, where Trees and fruit trees, such as fir and citrus, can be planted on slopes greater than 25°C, and terraced fields can be built on slopes less than 25°C to grow rice."

"Xian'er has learned a lot in these years." Xuanqi rested her chin on one hand and looked sideways at Leng Yijian, with a gratified smile on her lips.

"These years?" Leng Yijiao keenly sensed that Xuan Qiao's words pleased her, and asked with a frown.

Xuan Love is very satisfied with the way the two get along now, and doesn't want to bring up the old things again.Pretending not to hear, she continued to look at Leng Yizhen with tender eyes.

Standing up with a flick of his sleeves, Xuan Loo pressed Leng Yizhen on the dragon chair.

Then he lowered his head and approached, and a domineering kiss landed on Leng Yizhen's lips, and the nimble tip of his tongue easily pried open the other's teeth.

With a "crash", the brushes and maps on the desk fell to the ground one after another.

The cramped space made Leng Yizhen extremely embarrassed, his cheeks became hot for a while, and even the roots of his ears became blush.

"Xuanqiu...don't be like this..." Leng Yijiao was kissed until his whole body went limp, exhausting all his strength, he finally pushed Xuanqiu away.

"Xian'er." Xuan Qiao propped her hands on the dragon chair, with a thin layer of water mist in her amber eyes, she looked at Leng Yiyao who was below her and called softly.

"Huh?" Leng Yijiao looked up at Xuanqi who was on her body, her chest heaved violently, and her eyelashes, which were as thick as wings, had become moist unconsciously.

"Is it okay to go to Jian'er's bedroom at night as a teacher?" Xuan Qiao leaned down again on Leng Yiluo's body, and said in an angry voice.

"Okay." Leng Yizhen bit her lower lip lightly, and nodded her chin in a strange way.

Xuan Qian was overjoyed, and a happy smile rose from the corner of her mouth.

"Then I'll go back first." Leng Yijiao pushed Xuan Qiao away forcefully, got up and straightened the collar and wide sleeves of his robe, and then walked towards the entrance of the hall.

Xuan Qiu also straightened up and stood beside the dragon chair with a long body.Raising his hands above his head, he took off the crooked crown, and put it on the desk, his gaze stayed on Leng Yijiao's back.
