The little queen is squeamish, and the tyrant of prey coaxes her every night

After waking up from the dream, Li Mi could still clearly perceive her unhappy mood in the dream.

But before he had time to think about it, a guard said outside the door: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang is bringing the local officials to ask for an audience. He is in the front hall of the posthouse."

"Ah."

Inside the room, Li Wei responded lightly.

After getting up to wash and change his clothes, Li Mi led the people to the front hall of the post house.

These officials from top to bottom, even several local county magistrates rushed over, stood at the back, and after saluting, their eyes quietly fell on Li Wei with awe and curiosity.

Most of the officials present had already met Li Wei yesterday. Wang Yong and Qian Tong were reminded by Zhang Jiqian last night, and today they seemed particularly relieved, standing aside without speaking.

Zhang Jiqian was the closest to Li Mi, and was the first to stand up and explain the situation here again, then looked at Wang Yong and Qian Tong.

Wang Yong immediately stood up, knelt down on the ground, and said in his mouth: "The minister is guilty! Please forgive me!"

The officials at the scene became confused at once, and everyone didn't understand why Wang Yong was like this.

They went to look at Li Mi's expression again, only to find that Li Mi was sitting there with a faint expression on his face, and the young emperor's eyes were so deep that they couldn't see joy or anger from those eyes.

Thinking that an official like Wang Yong could only kneel down to plead guilty, everyone panicked for a while.

The timid and uncontrollable legs went limp, and he knelt down.

Finally, Li Wei said:
"What's your fault?"

"In the very close area, floods occur frequently. As a local official, I can't solve them. As a result, the people are displaced every year when there is a flood. Up to now, the embankment is still a mess. I am ashamed of the emperor, and even more ashamed of the people."

When Wang Yong said this, Qian Tong quickly knelt down and said the same thing as Wang Yong.

The officials in the back were already worried, but when they heard Wang Yong and Qian Tong tease out the reasons for the unresolved flood in this area, their faces turned pale with fright, and they all lowered their heads and knelt on the ground, trembling slightly.

Due to its special location in the Mengchuan area of ​​Linchuan, once a flood occurs, the upstream water rushes in, but the downstream cannot let the flood flow out. The waterproofing project built here has been put on hold for many reasons, making the situation even more serious.

Among them, more or less, they all took some benefits.

It's just that after a lot of thinking, I never thought that the emperor would come to this place in person.

When Zhang Jiqian arrived, they didn't take him seriously. Over the years, there were countless officials sent by the imperial court to control the water. The only difference between Zhang Jiqian and those people was that he had just entered the officialdom and was a little bit of a scholarly spirit.

But when the emperor came, the situation was quite different.

Looking at the current situation, it must be Zhang Jiqian who reported the situation here to the emperor, which attracted the emperor to come. This number one scholar who just won the imperial examination is the emperor's confidant.

Li Shen's eyes always swept over these officials one by one.

Seeing the guilty and terrified looks of those officials, he snorted coldly in his heart, and was about to turn his gaze away, but Li Mi suddenly found that one of them was standing near the end and also knelt down, but it wasn't the others who were trembling.

Recording this scene in his heart, Li Mi turned his eyes away and looked at Wang Yong and Qian Tong.

"Calm down, this time to deal with the flood, I will personally go to patrol along the river, and the rest of the matter will be discussed later."

"Yes."

Wang Yong and Qian Tong stood up and gave a general account of the recent situation.

When heading to the river, Wang Yong, Qian Tong and other officials followed behind, and there was a group of guards in front to separate them, only Zhang Jiqian was by Li Mi's side.

"Your Majesty, I have carefully observed the area along the river. There is a section between Mengchuan and Linchuan where the riverbed is wide and deep. More importantly, there are few people living around. I think the court can pay them to move them away and build dams there. When there is a flood, you can use this to resist, and then release the flood downstream one by one."

"only……"

Speaking of this, Zhang Jiqian sighed; "Just as I proposed this idea, the support from the Ministry of Housing and the Ministry of Industry was cut off immediately. This matter has to be delayed. Now that the emperor is here, I want to ask the emperor to issue an order to start building the dam as soon as possible after the Ministry of Housing and the Ministry of Industry resume transportation."

Li Min nodded, and said again: "Before I came this time, I even found a helper for you."

Zhang Jiqian looked over suspiciously.

Li Min continued: "This person is in Linchuan, he is of the same clan as you."

Zhang Jiqian immediately understood: "The emperor is talking about Zhang Hengzhi?"

Li Mi looked at Zhang Jiqian: "Do you know him?"

"Reporting to the emperor, I have heard about him during the time I've been here. I heard that this person was cooperating with a water control official sent by the court to control the flood a few years ago, but later he was involved in a corruption case."

When Zhang Jiqian said this, he thought about it seriously, and then continued: "I heard that this case involved many people at that time. The officials in charge of flood control were dismissed, and many officials, large and small, were replaced here. Afterwards, the flood control officials sent by the imperial court were all here to show off, and this person never mentioned the matter of flood control. I visited a few days ago, but I didn't see anyone. According to his family, this person has gone to visit friends, and I don't know when he will be back."

The case of flood corruption mentioned by Zhang Jiqian, Li Mi also knew that he was not fully fledged back then, and he was helpless in many things, and in the file that was put in front of him, the flood management officials were indeed involved in the corruption case.

But he remembered Zhang Hengzhi.

The pictures drawn by this person back then are still well preserved.

This person may not have gone to visit a friend, I'm afraid he was disappointed and refused to make another move.

Li Mi looked back and saw Zhang Jiqian's regretful expression, and said with a smile, "I'm going in person, can't I see him?"

"emperor!"

Zhang Jiqian looked up in surprise, but saw Li Mi standing under his eyes, the eyes of the young and strong king were shining brightly.

A thousand unspeakable emotions suddenly rose in his heart.

"Please follow me!"

It is rare that such a king who is controlled everywhere and deals in the harem has not grown into an appearance who only knows conspiracy and tricks.

Be able to be courteous to the virtuous and the corporal, no matter the poor or the poor or the rich or the noble.

Such a king, even if his wings are temporarily bound, who can say that he can't break free one day and ride the wind?

When that day really comes, it's time to flex your muscles and benefit the people!
But now, they only need to do the things right now, at least protect the people right now!

As a minister, what you can only ask for is that the ruler is bright and the minister is straight, and you are also the people of your family and country!
