Bai Jintong had already told Bai Qingyan about Sima Mingdao coming to Yanwo in the letter, but he didn't expect that Sima Mingdao came to find Qin Shangzhi.
"The changes in some small places... cough cough cough!" Qin Shangzhi covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves. After coughing a few times, he pointed at the points on the drawings. "The small changes in these places are OK
Let the Guanghe Canal play a greater role, but... the manpower and material resources are also needed."
Bai Qingyan nodded: "According to what Lord Qin saw, is it worth it?"
Qin Shangzhi was stunned, pursed his lips and said, "According to the opinions of Weichen, judging from the current situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is not worth it for the time being."
"Let me tell me!" Bai Qingyan sat down on the small stool beside him with his hand.
Qin Shangzhi coughed violently for a while before saying, "Your Majesty wants the world, not just limited to the Great Zhou. Once the world is unified, the Guanghe Canal can be built not only in this section, but can be extended to Yan.
In the country, if this is the case, Your Majesty will not only turn the Yanwo area into a granary of the Great Zhou, but also connect Qingbi City in Yan's territory to Jinghe. Think about it... These lands have become granary of the Great Zhou.
!”
Speaking of this, Qin Shangzhi's eyes were shiny, and he seemed to have planned it, and his words revealed his ambition and eagerness to try.
Qin Shangzhi is an all-rounder, and Bai Qingyan has known it for a long time.
Bai Qingyan knocked his fingers on the table all at once, and after a while, he smiled and said, "Then... this matter will be left to Lord Qin."
Qin Shangzhi was stunned, coughed violently a few times, and then took two steps back and bowed to Bai Qingyan: "Your Majesty, Qin Shangzhi once repaired this canal and said goodbye to leave, and went to accompany the deposed prince of the Jin Dynasty. I have agreed.
The deposed prince... will become the teacher who deposed prince's descendants in the previous dynasty. His Majesty can assign the work of the canal construction to Sima Mingdao, Mr. Sima Sheng's grandson."
"Mr. Qin is a man with great ambitions. I did not force Mr. Qin to abandon the deposed prince of the Jin Dynasty and follow me! But... Since Mr. Qin has planned how to repair this canal after the unification of the world, is that just?
Don't want to repair it with your own hands?" Bai Qingyan heard Qin Shangzhi change his name to him, and smiled and changed his name to Qin Shangzhi, calling him a gentleman. After a while, she said, "Of course, I'm going to do it.
Don't force Mr. Qin."
Bai Qingyan stood up with Chunzhi's hand: "If Mr. Qin is willing, he will come to preside over the repair of the canal when the world is unified. I will definitely ask the Ministry of Revenue and Industry Department to help! If Mr. Qin is unwilling, just as Mr. Qin has
Yan…and Mr. Sima Sheng’s grandson is here!”
"Building a canal is a thing that can benefit from the future and be famous for eternity. It can be said that the canal is... Someone will remember that there was a person in this world called Qin Shangzhi! But if the gentleman doesn't want it, it will be a long time.
, The inconspicuous dust in the rolling history, a hundred years... After hundreds of years, who will remember Mr. Mr., the loyal and righteous man?"
Bai Qingyan looked at Qin Shangzhi with a smile: "The person who presided over the construction of Guanghe Canal is Mr. Qin. If Mr. Qin thinks that Sima Mingdao is available, then use it! I said that Mr. Qin is fully responsible for the construction of the canal, and the court cooperates! Mr. Qin
Who should decide for yourself, and you don’t have to ask for instructions in everything!”
Qin Shangzhi couldn't help but cough a few times and bowed: "Yes, thank you for your trust!"
"Mr. Qin has not yet completed the Guanghe Canal. The work of repairing the canal depends on Master Qin. If the adult is unwell, he should rest more. Otherwise, if Master Qin falls down, it will delay the matter."
"Yes! I remember it." After Qin Shangzhi said that, he looked at Bai Qingyan and asked, "Does Your Majesty want to meet this Sima Mingdao?"
When Qin Shangzhi saw this Sima Mingdao, he seemed to be a descendant of Sima Sheng and had a high opinion of himself, saying that he was unwilling to go to the capital to take shortcuts in the name of his grandfather, so he came to Yanwo.
But Qin Shangzhi thought that Sima Mingdao was indeed a bit real, so he was willing to recommend it to Bai Qingyan.
"He entrusted you to ask for your opinion?" Bai Qingyan asked.
"That's not. This Sima Master has the ability, so he will naturally be more noble and will never ask his ministers to ask for your Majesty." Qin Shangzhi said.
"Then it's gone." Bai Qingyan replied simply, "When will he really make great contributions and live up to Mr. Sima Sheng's reputation. When will he see you again? Lord Qin will go back and have a good rest, Wei Zhonghe's guards
Just accompany me on this dam and take a look."
"Wei Chen... cough cough, I'd better accompany Your Majesty! I can also talk to Your Majesty along the way, cough cough cough..." Qin Shangzhi couldn't help coughing.
"Master Qin should go back and rest well. In the future, the work of repairing canals depends on the lord! The old slave and the guards accompany His Majesty and have to set off back to the capital. You don't have to worry, lord." Wei Zhong said with a smile.
Qin Shangzhi was really uncomfortable with coughing, his face turned red, and after a while, he felt that his condition could not be with Bai Qingyan, so he received the order and said goodbye.
Bai Qingyan held Chunzhi's hand and walked around with Wei Zhong's company, then prepared to set off for a trip back to the capital. Xiao Rongyan's letter also arrived.
On the carriage, Bai Qingyan took the letter apart.
"Abao's wife, I see my words like a meeting..."
Bai Qingyan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips when he saw the first four words.
Maybe Xiao Rongyan saw that her letter was sincere and had a very good attitude. He said that he knew that Bai Qingyan's grasp of the situation was always extraordinary, and he was confused when he cared about it, but he was really worried, because no matter how powerful Bai Qingyan was, he was.
, to him, he was just his pregnant wife.
Xiao Rongyan also said that they had reported to heaven and worshipped the world. They were already husband and wife. As a husband, he should protect Bai Qingyan from the wind and rain. Now he has many people in both countries. But he still hopes that Bai Qingyan will not use it.
Take risks with your children.
In the end, Xiao Rongyan did not hide the current capital of Yan. He said that he planned to give Empress Dowager Yan a reassurance first, and said that when the matter in Xiliang was settled, he asked Empress Dowager Yan to hold a banquet. The girl with a happy heart would definitely be with Yan.
The Empress Dowager said that she would let the Empress Dowager Yan make the decision for him, but Meng Zhaorong couldn't do it.
And Xiao Rongyan had someone take the script back to Queen Mother Yan to see and tell Queen Mother Yan that he didn't want to be the topic of conversation for others.
This shows that he did not abduct Meng Zhaorong.
And he had done it. When the war in Xiliang was over, Ali should propose a merger plan for the two countries after returning. At that time, Xiao Rongyan asked Empress Dowager Yan to persuade Ali to take back Cheng's life, and said that he was not in the mood to have a lifelong event. Plus, he added
Empress Dowager Yan would be bothered, so she would never trouble Xiao Rongyan's marriage.
