"Is there a problem?" Feng Yexuan raised his eyebrows.
Tanwei Town and Qingwu Town are thousands of miles apart. They are two cities that are completely inseparable. One is flooded and the other is drought. There is no contradiction.
"Your Majesty, I have seen your map of Beiming Kingdom before. From Tanwei Town to Qingwu Town, there are two big rivers."
Xiaoyao looked through it but couldn't find the map.
However, Feng Yexuan casually took out the topographic map of Beiming and spread it on the table.
Xiaoyao immediately found the two rivers between the two cities.
"Your Majesty, these two rivers are usually unrelated to each other, but if the amount of water in one of them is too large, it will tear down the city wall and flow into the other river."
"I don't know the history of Beiming very well, but according to my guess, if Tanwei Town is really plagued by floods for more than a month, that means the amount of accumulated water is already large enough."
"For such a long time, Tanwei Town cannot handle such a large amount of water, and most of the water will inevitably flow to the downstream end."
"And at the downstream end is another unknown town. Once the water overflows this small town, according to the terrain, the city wall of Qingwu Town will never be able to stop it."
"So, if Tanwei Town has really been flooded for more than a month, and based on the estimation of the water potential at this time, it is impossible for Qingwu Town to need to divert water for irrigation at this time when there is a drought."
"Your Majesty, there is a person in the prefecture of Tanwei Town and Qingwu Town who is lying."
"Come here!" Feng Yexuan called.
Leng Ji hurriedly opened the door and walked in: "Your Majesty!"
He glanced at Xiao Yao, who was standing next to the prince, and immediately lowered his head without saying anything.
I don’t know what the two of them are doing, but they seem to be at work?
Feng Yexuan said in a deep voice: "Immediately send someone to visit Tanwei Town and Qingwu Town in person to see what the actual situation is."
"Your Majesty, both cities are very far away from the imperial city. This trip takes a very long time."
Leng Ji didn't know why the prince suddenly took this matter so seriously.
He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, although the two cities are in constant trouble, the amount of money they apply for each time is not much. Your Majesty always approves it casually. Why..."
"Just because they don't have much money, the two prefects thought that the king wouldn't care and would approve it every time, so they became more and more arrogant!"
If there are prefects who lie and bully their superiors, there will definitely be people who suffer.
"This time, let's investigate carefully and find out who is deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth from the inferiors. Such people are not worthy of being an official. Bring them back to the king immediately for investigation!"
"Yes!" Leng Ji understood. The prince did not care about the money, but to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
"My subordinates will order people to investigate immediately!"
After Leng Ji left, Feng Yexuan pushed the pile of official documents in his hand to Xiao Yao: "Look good!"
After that, he actually got up from the chair, walked to the coffee table, poured himself a cup of tea, and slowly tasted it.
And Xiaoyao, who had been properly arranged by him, sat in the seat where he had been sitting just now, reviewing official documents for him.
Xiaoyao immediately protested: "Your Majesty..."
"Finish the official document, or be stripped naked and thrown out. You choose one of the two."
Feng Yexuan leaned on the back of his chair and drank tea slowly. His gaze, although not very cold, was absolutely undeniable.
Xiao Yao suddenly wanted to cry but had no tears left!
What does it mean to work harder for those who are able? Isn’t this too much?
"I'm just a maid..."
"It's okay if you want to be a civil servant. Once the official document is approved, I will consider it as appropriate."
