Chapter 875: Floods, prepare 5 years ago
Xiao Tianyao knew very well that once the people from Tiancang Pavilion knew that he was going to openly sell grain to Beilithe north, they would urge the people from the Central Empire to rush to the East to stop his plan.
On the surface, he asked the ministers to discuss the charter and come up with specific measures, but in private, he had already ordered someone to set up the Department of Agricultural Affairs, and he was just waiting for Su Cha to come back to take over.
"Wangye, the Empress sent someone to send a letter to Tiancang Pavilion. If there are no accidents, the people from the Central Empire will be able to arrive at the east in 10 days at most." Xiao Tianyao just wrote to Su Cha, asking him to come back as soon as possible to take over the Department of Agricultural Affairs, when he heard the report from his subordinates.
Xiao Tianyao was not surprised by this at all. The Empress's area was too small. Although she was smart, she was short-sighted. She can only see the square inch in front of her eyes.
Xiao Tianyao was surprised by the report, why do people come so late?
"10 days? Did they encounter something on the way?" According to the plan, even without Tiancang Pavilion's urging, the Central Empire and his party could arrive within ten days.
"A young man from the imperial envoys fell in love with a young girl in Qingan City, and stayed with her for 3 days." The shadow guard said bluntly, before Xiao Tianyao asked, he continued: "According to investigations, the young man is very likely to be a young prince. Born of the same mother as the third prince of the Central Empire. And that woman should belong to the Eldest Prince, and she completely resembled the girl that the young prince likes."
There were not so many coincidences in the world, and it was impossible for a peerless beauty to suddenly appear in an ordinary small town. It was a pity that the young prince of the Central Empire doesn't understand this truth, and stayed in a small town for another three days because of a woman.
However, three days was nothing to the imperial envoys, after all, they were not in a hurry.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"The young prince of the Central Empire? Interesting." Xiao Tianyao leaned on the back of the chair and tapped his fingers on the table while smiling maliciously. The shadow guard's back felt chills, and he even breathed carefully.
Intuition told him that their prince was going to make a big move, and the young prince of the Central Empire would most likely suffer.
"I remember, the fastest way for them to come to the capital is to take the Xinan River, right?" Xiao Tianyao asked as if chatting, but the shadow guard didn't think it was chatting, and said after thinking for a while: "If they are in a hurry, the Xin'an River is the fastest." If they were not in a hurry, the Imperial Envoys will not take the Xinan River, that river was not peaceful, but… …
If Tiancang Pavilion urged, the Imperial Envoys would probably go to Xinan River to save time. After all, they came from the Central Empire, they would not pay attention to the little bandits in the east.
"I remember, how many reservoirs did we build on the Xinan River?" Xiao Tianyao's frequency of tapping on the table remained the same, but the shadow guard felt his heartbeat quicken.
"Answering back wangye, we built three reservoirs on the Xinan River back then, and the reservoirs should be full at this time." The shadow guard took a deep breath before calming down his beating heart.
Five years ago, their prince already prepared things, which was scary.
Fortunately, he was not the enemy of their prince. Their prince was terrible. This step was taken five years ago.
"If the reservoir collapses, how many good fields will be drowned?" The tone was still chattering as if he was not the one who wanted to destroy the reservoir and drown the Imperial Envoys.
"At least 3,000 mu of fertile land will be damaged, half of ours." As early as Xiao Tianyao asked, the shadow guard had guessed Xiao Tianyao's plan, so the shadow guard was not surprised to hear Xiao Tianyao's words at this moment.
The prince of their family never asks for useless things.
*Bang* Xiao Tianyao slammed the table and stood up: "Let someone raise money and buy the other half of the fertile land afterward."
"Yes, wangye!" The shadow guard quietly pressed his beating heart and secretly exhaled several times before dispelling the tension in his heart.
Their design this time was the young prince of the Central Empire. One bad move may lead to the destruction of the country. This matter must be well planned, and no flaws can be seen, otherwise, things will be troublesome.
On the second day, when Prince Xiao was resting, Prime Minister Lin brought his wife, daughter, and son to the door early in the morning. The Assistant Housekeeper led people into the flower hall according to the rules and asked Prime Minister Lin to wait for a while.
In just a few days, Prime Minister Lin looked much older. Madam Lin and Lin Wanting also looked haggard.
But Prime Minister Lin’s only son has not changed, his eyes were still clear, and his small body was straight, like a little adult. Seeing Prime Minister Lin smiling flatteringly to the housekeeper of the mansion, he was not embarrassed but disappointed. He understands its meaning.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu came over and just saw this scene. The two looked at each other tacitly. The moment their eyes met, Lin Chujiu blushed and looked away in embarrassment.
She didn't know what happened to her, and her first reaction after encountering the incident was to find Xiao Tianyao.
It was not good to rely on Xiao Tianyao so much!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu stepped into the house, Prime Minister Lin found out, and hurriedly stood up and saluted: "This minister greets wangye… …"
"No need for the ceremony." Xiao Tianyao spoke before Prime Minister Lin finished his salute.
He was not giving face to Prime Minister Lin but to Lin Chujiu. Anyway, his wife, Lin Chujiu was Prime Minister Lin's daughter. No matter how much he hated Prime Minister Lin, he has to give him some face, otherwise, others will just think that he doesn't take his princess seriously.
"Thank you, wangye." Lin Xiang showed gratitude and looked excited.
Lin Chujiu glanced at it, then silently raised her head to look at the roof.
Compared to Prime Minister Lin's stupid nodding and bowing now. She preferred to see Prime Minister Lin's arrogant appearance at the beginning. At least that Prime Minister Lin was confident, and he still has a bit of literati strength, not like the soft-boned appearance he was now.
"Xiao Wangfei." Prime Minister Lin hesitated before calling Lin Chujiu who was behind Xiao Tianyao.
FTo curryfavor with Xiao Tianyao, Prime Minister Lin has no pressure at all. Xiao Tianyao was born a royal, one level above them. It was normal for him to be respectful and courteous to Xiao Tianyao, but… …
It was really difficult for him to please his daughter who was beaten and scolded by him in the past.
Prime Minister Lin was not only used to it, but even Lin Chujiu felt awkward seeing him like this. After nodding indiscriminately, Lin Chujiu said: "Father, you should call me Chujiu."
"Ahem… Chujiu, your mother, younger sister, and younger brother said that they haven't seen you for a long time and miss you." Prime Minister Lin coughed awkwardly, pointed to Madam Lin and the other two behind him, and said loudly: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and greet wangye and wangfei."
The Emperor was doomed to a disastrous defeat. He has done so many things for the Emperor. It can be said that he completely offended Prince Xiao to death. This time, he has to ask Prince Xiao to forgive him no matter what, and tried his best to let Prince Xiao let him go… …
