The Unruly Princess: Regent, please hug me

Chapter 131 Digging out four streams
After Chen Shangshu heard Shen Qiqi's words, he felt more and more that what he did before was very inappropriate. He was so suspicious of the eldest princess at that time, but what the eldest princess is doing now is so open and aboveboard, she did not let the previous things go on heart.

"Eldest princess, I hope you don't take it to heart when I offend you before. It's because I'm narrow-minded, I misunderstood other people's whispers, and I misunderstood the eldest princess."

After Shen Qiqi heard his introspective words, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She was indeed as others said before, with no ink and no accomplishments.

This time she could help Chen Shangshu solve the dam issue, Shen Qiqi felt that she was useful at last, and was also happy in her heart.

"What is Chen Shangshu talking about? I know Chen Shangshu's temper. You are just talking about the facts. I am not such a narrow-minded person, haha."

During the conversation, the diversions have been dug out one after another to connect with the mainstream. It turns out that there are four diversions in the dam. As long as these four diversions are dug out, the water from the diversions can relieve the pressure on the mainstream.

"Chen Shangshu doesn't have to worry if there are four diversion streams. Even if it rains again, these four diversion streams can bear part of the water flow."

Chen Shangshu squinted his eyes and looked at the two streams opposite through the rain curtain, the corners of his mouth raised but did not fall.

"The eldest princess is right. As long as there are these four diversions, the officials don't have to worry about the collapse of the dam anymore."

The people in the cloud are actually very concerned about the situation here, and the wealthy households who donated money also hope that the dam can survive this period of time without damage. If there is a flood here, I am afraid they will have to move their families. went elsewhere.

This is also why after Chen Shangshu did business with these wealthy households, the wealthy households agreed to donate money without much hesitation, just because they did not want to move to other places.

"Chen Shangshu, you also have to take care of the stele. After all, those people have donated money, and I'm afraid we have to ask them to pay more. These diversions still need to be repaired, don't you think? Only in this way can we ensure that the dam will not fail for a hundred years. When the dam was built in the past, the letter stated that the dam would not fail for a hundred years. Now that the dam is in danger of collapsing, we have to find a way to make the dam stronger!"

When Shen Qiqi was on the road, she also thought about it carefully. This dam was built when the late emperor was here, and it was also for the sake of the late emperor's face.

If this face project really collapses, I am afraid that some brainless officials in the court will definitely say some nonsense in the memorial.

The ministers in the court have no other skills, but they are extraordinarily active in messing around with some shit. The former emperor and the others dare not take it out to make trouble, but they can torment Xiao Jijing.

"The eldest princess reminded me that the official almost forgot such an important thing."

When Chen Shangshu thought about the things involved, he broke out in a cold sweat. If those officials with bad mouths were to push all the dam collapse on the emperor, then his black gauze hat really took the lead .

"This palace also suddenly remembered this matter. You also know that although there is a regent in charge of the court, there are still some people with different ideas who want to stir things up."

Xiao Jijing's throne has not yet been firmly established, so can there be rumors that are not good for him? Didn't the ancients like to use such things to blackmail the emperor?
Chen Shangshu nodded and said yes, he agreed with the eldest princess's words very much, which was actually what he was worried about. At the beginning, he frequently offended the eldest princess, but in fact, he also had a feeling of hating iron for being weak.

"The eldest princess is very right, the lower official understands."

"There's nothing else going on here. It's raining heavily. Eldest Princess, you'd better go back and rest. If there's anything to do, the officials will report to you immediately."

Shen Qiqi also felt that she didn't need to stay here any longer, now she just had to wait for the common people to dig out these four streams.

After returning to the house in the carriage, she entered the house to warm up her body, rubbed her cold hands, and took off her wet shoes.

"Your Highness, the hot water is ready, take a bath and rest!"

Yue Ling looked at her highness distressedly, it was windy and rainy outside, and the weather was extremely bad. His highness personally went to urge the people to dig and divert them, it was really tiring.

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness the Regent has a house here, otherwise, there would be no one to serve you."

Shen Qiqi took off her clothes and went into the bathtub sprinkled with flower petals. The water in the bucket was a little hot, but after entering, Shen Qiqi sighed comfortably.

"It's enough for you to serve me by my side. How can I need so many people to serve me alone? There is no way in the palace. Outside, our luggage needs to be streamlined, and our people also need to be streamlined. If we can take as many people as possible, we will not take more people with us." , this is also conducive to escape, isn't it?"

And if the battle is too big, Shen Qiqi always feels that she will become a target of others, she thinks it is good to travel lightly.

"Hasn't any official in Yunzhong come here these days?"

It stands to reason that a long princess and a regent, when they arrive, these people should come here to pay their respects in fear. They have been here for so long, and they have never seen half of the officials in the cloud. Could it be that these people are hiding Do not go out at home.

"The maidservant also found it strange, so she asked Master Qingcheng. It turned out that these people were all imprisoned long before His Highness came down. After hearing that something happened to the dam, these people were all imprisoned. There is no way to greet His Highness."

Chen Shangshu acted so vigorously and put all these colleagues in prison as soon as he came. It seems that he was really angry about this matter.

"It's no wonder that these people are all in prison. If there is nothing wrong with the dam, it's fine. If there is something wrong, their heads will fall to the ground. But even if the dam is built, the black hats on their heads will be taken off."

Breathing out comfortably, Shen Qiqi retracted her whole body into the tub, feeling her body gradually warming up.

In the study next door, Mo Yan opened the secret letter, and after seeing what was written inside, his originally calm eyes became as sharp as a knife.

At night, when the two of them were having dinner face to face, when Shen Qiqi heard that Mo Yan was going out of the clouds for a while, the movements of his hands stopped immediately.

"We just came to Yunzhong, and you are going out again. Could it be that those people from last time showed up?"

The people who chased and killed them last time were really so bold, and even chased them here, it's impossible, didn't Qingcheng kill almost all those men in black last time?And most of these people will only lie in ambush in the mountains, because if they fail, they can go deep into the mountains, and there are many ways to retreat.
