    Zheng Min proposed two proposals, may I ask which one Jingrui Emperor is talking about.

    Emperor Jingrui looked at Zheng Min.

    "I will use it if I can!" Emperor Jingrui said domineeringly.

    He must not only solve the urgent need, but also maintain long-term stability. The Changhe River must not burst its embankment for the second time, and the northwest region must live in peace.

    "The grass people understand!"

    Zheng Min nodded.

    "The emperor must dig an embankment in the upper reaches of the Chang River to solve the urgent need"

    Zheng Min had already discussed this method with Han Ce to solve the urgent need. Although he said the idea was bold, it was indeed the best way to solve the urgent need.

    "You mean to introduce water into Jiuzhonggu?"

    Emperor Jingrui did not expect that Zheng Min's urgent need would be such a bold approach.

    "That's right, there are advantages and disadvantages to the emperor's affairs. Everything in the world bears yin and embraces yang. This is the case. To alleviate the urgent need, the flow of the Chang River will slow down, which may affect the Grand Canal!"

    Zheng Min reminded Emperor Jingrui.

    This is a choice between giving and taking, and good things in the world cannot be taken for granted.

    The Grand Canal is related to the foundation of the country, and the smooth flow of the north-south economy must be carefully considered.

    "Is there no other way?"

    Emperor Jingrui asked, he was still a little reluctant to use the method Zheng Min said.

    Zheng Min shook his head, "Your Majesty, there is no other way. The only way to make the Changhe River recede is to divert the water from the Chang River into the Jiuchong Valley. The Caomin estimated that if the water from the Chang River is diverted into the Jiuchong Valley, the Chang River will not be affected within at least three years."  Another flood season, three years is enough time for us to repair the embankment!"

    Zheng Min stepped forward to explain.

    The words are also loud, without any intention of changing his mind.

    "Could it be that the Changhe River will not recede within the next three years?"

    Emperor Jingrui frowned, as long as he survived this period of time, the Changhe River would be able to recede. Anyway, the fertile land has been destroyed, so there is nothing to feel bad about.

    "The emperor's lesson, the grassroots observed that the water in the Changhe River will not recede for three years!"

    Zheng Min said seriously.

    "Zheng Min, do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?" Emperor Jingrui felt that what Zheng Min said was a bit exaggerated. People don't even know what will happen tomorrow, but Zheng Min actually told himself what happened three years later  .

    Isn't this a lie.

    From Emperor Jingrui's point of view, Zheng Min is exaggerating completely and expiring himself.

    "Your Majesty, the grass people know of course! If the water in the Changhe recedes within three years, the grass people are willing to die and make amends!" Zheng Min also seemed to be provoked by Emperor Jingrui.

    He is an expert in this field. He has observed Changhe for many years, and he will never make a mistake.

    "Father, Zheng Min is just in a hurry, please don't argue with him! Zheng Min hasn't apologized to Father!"

    Seeing that the conversation between the two became more and more serious, even risking their lives, Xiao Yanjing immediately stepped forward to persuade them.

    He asked Zheng Min to come here for advice, not to kill Zheng Min.

    Emperor Jingrui looked at Zheng Min again, and Zheng Min stood quietly in front of Emperor Jingrui, as if he didn't hear Xiao Yanjing's words.

    For a long time, there was no sound in the imperial study.

    The breathing of the four of them was also suppressed.

    "Hahaha!" Suddenly Emperor Jingrui let out a laugh, "Okay, well, this is my subject in Daliang, so you should have the mentality of seeing death as home, no matter what you do, you must have self-confidence, Zheng Minzhen believes what you say, now  Do as you say!"

    Emperor Jingrui agreed to Zheng Min's proposal.

    In fact, Emperor Jingrui was not stupid, so he could naturally see that Zheng Min's method was good or bad, but it could solve the urgent need and buy time to repair the embankment.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the grace of the emperor, the grassroots are terrified!"

    Zheng Min thanked him, but he was grateful to Han Ce and Xiao Yanjing in his heart, because they gave him the opportunity to show his talents.

    Let yourself fulfill your life's wish.

    "From today onwards, you are the minister of the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court!"

    Emperor Jingrui gave Zheng Min an official position, and the Ministry of Industry was baptized, and both the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Minister of the Ministry of Industry were dismissed.

    As for why he was not Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Emperor Jingrui decided to continue to observe Zheng Min's ability, and it would not be too late to promote him if he really has the ability.

    "Han Ce!"

    "The minister is here!"

    "After you go, assist King Jing well, don't dishonor the reputation of the Zhenbeihou Mansion! ??

    For Han Ce, Emperor Jingrui was just a simple reminder.

    "clear!"

    Han Ce smiled and nodded.

    It seemed that he understood Emperor Jingrui's intentions.

    After leaving the palace, three days later, Xiao Yanjing transferred 50,000 troops from the capital and 30,000 troops from Beiliang. The two armies headed northwest, determined to quell the chaos in one fell swoop.

    "Going to the northwest, you have to take care of yourself!" Lin Nianrou looked at Han Ce worriedly.

    However, she heard that the northwest is not peaceful, there is a plague, the victims of the disaster rebelled, like bandits, the flood has not disappeared, and there is always danger.

    "I know, you also take care of yourself, if you are bored in the mansion, you can go to Xiangguo mansion!" Han Ce said.

    "I see! The day before yesterday, my mother also sent a message, asking me to go back to Xiangguo Mansion for a few days if I have time!"

    Lin Nianrou told Han Ce not to worry about him, after all, this is the capital and he will be fine.

    "gone!"

    Han Ce left with Mu Hanfeng.

    Arriving at the gate of the city, Xiao Yanjing and others were waiting for Han Ce.

    "lets go!"

    Han Ce said with a smile.

    Leave the capital.

    "Han Ce, what can you do to put an end to the chaos?" Xiao Yanjing asked Han Ce on the road. The uprising of the victims was different from the invasion of foreign enemies. After all, the victims were still the people of Daliang.

    "Siege is the bottom, attacking the heart is the top, attacking the army is the bottom, appease the top!"

    Han Ce said sixteen words lightly.

    "What do you mean, Lord Hou?" Zheng Min asked, why didn't they understand the meaning of Han Ce's words.

    "Siege of cities and villages is just one way to quell chaos. It is a forceful suppression. We need a two-pronged approach. While suppressing by force, we must also regain the hearts of the people! Officials have lost the hearts of the people, which is why the people revolted!"

    Han Ce said.

    "Then how should we do it?"

    "It's simple. The people's uprising is nothing more than lack of food and shelter. As long as we solve these problems and the people see hope, who will be willing to rebel!"

    Han Ce looked at Zheng Min and Xiao Yanjing with a smile.

    "What you said is simple, how could it be so easy!" Xiao Yanjing felt that what Han Ce said was too simple.

    "Peasant uprisings lacked system, ideas, and goals. Most of them echoed their voices, and most of them were for the sake of having enough food, so there is nothing to worry about!"

    Han Ce explained that the reason why most peasant uprisings have failed since ancient times is because they did not have a complete plan and goal, and some even happened on a whim.

    "According to what you said, with so many people, how should we arrange them?"

    Xiao Yanjing asked.

    The imperial court can't give them food every day and give them money to support them. If this is the case, even if the imperial court has money, it can't afford it.

    "This is going to trouble our Minister of Industry, Mr. Zheng Min!"

    Han Ce looked at Zheng Min who was on the side.

    Hearing Han Ce's words, Zheng Min waved his hand, "Master Hou, you just flattered me. You asked me to govern the Changhe River. I think that no one can compare with me, but I'm afraid I won't be able to conquer people's hearts by marching and fighting!"

    Zheng Min is not an arrogant person either.

    Knowing his own shortcomings, he is a rough man, and his proficiency in water conservancy is already very impressive. He doesn't understand anything Han Ce said.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
