712. Chapter 712 [Ending] Believe who you don't believe
"As for the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, I think there is no need to rush it. Let's discuss it carefully and see if there is any better way.
"There is also a disaster in the north. We must not neglect it. People starving to death must never happen. Also, if I find that official has enriched his own pockets, I will kill him without any hesitation."
Long Jingkuang said seriously and authentically.
"Your Majesty is wise."
…
There were no other major events. He officially resigned from the court and all the ministers dispersed one by one.
Just as Ouyang Xiu was about to leave the palace, he received a message from the eunuch beside Long Jingkuang, saying that Long Jingkuang wanted to see him in the royal study.
This is an imperial edict and I have to go.
Ouyang Xiu sighed, wondering what trouble Long Jingkuang was going to use to make him uncomfortable.
Although in the court meeting just now, Long Jingkuang warned Tang Guipeng for him, it also made him a little surprised. However, Long Jingkuang had a grudge against him, which he had known for a long time.
…
Royal study room.
Long Jingkuang was reviewing the memorial, and at the same time, he was also waiting for Ouyang Xiu's arrival.
After a while, Ouyang Xiu came and gave Long Jing the courtesy of a monarch and a minister.
Long Jing glanced at him wildly and said, "Get up. You don't have to do this salute when no one is around."
"Your Majesty is an emperor, as he should be."
"I see you are reluctant too."
Long Jingkuang no longer calls me.
"Your Majesty, why are you looking for me?"
"I just want to tell you that it is better to leave the disaster relief matter to you. I don't trust the official who is handling it now."
"Your Majesty, do you believe me?"
Ouyang Xiu was so surprised. No matter how clear-minded the official in charge was, in fact, the position was a good one. Even if he could not gain money, he could gain the hearts of the people. This was a fat job. Long Jingkuang actually gave it to him. Is it normal?
"If you don't believe me, who do you believe?"
Long Jingkuang smiled at him and pointed to a seat, "Sit down."
"I don't dare."
"Just sit down when I ask you to. When did you become so cautious? This is not like your character."
Having said this, Ouyang Xiu didn't hesitate and just sat in that position. However, he saw that Long Jingkuang was either in a very good mood or not in a normal mood today.
"What good thing happened to your Majesty?"
Could it be related to Oriental Love?
During this period of time, Ouyang Xiu had forced herself not to think about Dongfang Lian, but she couldn't help but think about it.
"There are some good things, but it's not convenient to share them with Ouyang Qing. I came to you because I hope you can take advantage of this disaster relief trip to observe the terrain in the north and see if there are any other projects besides the South-to-North Water Diversion Project.
Besides, are there any other water sources that can be used? Now we just look at the map and come up with the South-to-North Water Diversion plan. However, the land
Many things in the picture are not detailed. If other water sources can be found, there is no need to carry out that extremely difficult project. Frankly speaking, our country is rich and powerful, and if we really want to carry out that project, it is possible, but it is
I'm afraid that other countries will take advantage of this situation. The new prince-in-law of Xiling has succeeded to the throne of Xiling. Have you heard about this?"
"Yes, I know. I heard that the young monarch of Xiling is ambitious..."
"That's it. The territory of our Huang Kingdom is also adjacent to Xiling. When we were carrying out the project, the treasury was empty, and we were afraid that Xiling would take action against us."
Long Jingkuang had to consider this step.
"Does Your Majesty plan to send an envoy to Xiling to congratulate the king of Xiling on his ascension to the throne, and to find out what talents the new king has?"
