My country is dying

Chapter 481
For the next few days, Mi Le stayed in the government office, and Xiangsi sent the report to Mi Le, Mi Le looked at the information on it again and again: "That's all?"

"Yes." Xiangsi nodded and said, "The people he interviewed were all famous painters in Qihou County. The servants arranged for someone to check, and the real chat was only about the paintings. It is said that King Huai's birthday banquet is coming. He wants to find A person who is most familiar with the Huaijiang region, sent King Huai a map of the Huaijiang."

King Huai governed the Huaijiang River, and he gave a picture of the Huaijiang River at the birthday banquet to go along with common sense, but Pei Qing, who was born, cannot be inferred by common sense.

"Continue to send people to watch him, and report to me if there is any disturbance!"

In the next few days, when the local weather official reported that there was a possibility of rain, Mi Le immediately presided over the ceremony of praying for rain in person. Sure enough, it rained lightly in the afternoon of the second day. It is a great psychological comfort, and with this, the work of finding water sources can be carried out smoothly.

After several days of investigation, the surrounding water sources were finally marked out, and finally, the water source was also identified.

Mr. Hai immediately led hundreds of people to start construction, and finally dug the groundwater source on the third day, which was an underground river gushing with clear springs.

As soon as the news came out, Mi Le was also very happy. In this way, the local water source problem may be solved!
With the water source, the next step is to divert water, but it is a huge project to divert water to every village, and it cannot be solved in three or two days.

Mi Le stayed in Qihou County for more than a whole month. During this period, not only workers participated in the construction of the canal, but also the Imperial Army. Seeing that the canal was about to be completed, Mi Le let go of the boulder in his heart.

"Wait until the water source problem is resolved before distributing the supplies. It shouldn't be difficult for the local people to spend this time."

Down below, Mr. Hai couldn't hide his excitement: "Yes, as long as the water source in Qihou County is resolved, the surrounding areas can also be carried out according to our current method. I believe that the drought in the West Sea will be resolved in a short time. In this way , the epidemic can be brought under control!"

Mi Le has worked hard during this time, and he has lost a lot of weight. After discussing the next deployment with Mr. Hai, the sky outside is completely dark.

"Clap!"

Suddenly, several loud noises rose from the air, and Mi Le was taken aback for a moment, only to see the fireworks outside through the window.

"Who set off the fireworks? What day is it today?" The sound of fireworks is close at hand, it should be set off near the government office.

But nearby residents, who is so bold to set off fireworks where she lives?
Xianglan happily came in from the outside, and bowed to Mi Le: "Your Majesty, it's the local people. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, but because of the drought, we can't race the dragon boats, so everyone made some fireworks to celebrate. The festival, and secondly, thanks to the emperor for not giving up on them!"

Mi Le was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that it was the Dragon Boat Festival unconsciously.

She came out of the back room and stood under the eaves with her waist that had been sore for the past two days. The sky was filled with fireworks, and the cheers of the people outside could be faintly heard. My tense heart also relaxes.

In the outer courtyard, Magistrate Zhou's daughter was playing with fireworks there. When Magistrate Zhou's wife saw Mi Le approaching, she was so frightened that she quickly grabbed her daughter and tried to stamp out her fireworks.

The child refused, and immediately burst into tears. Mi Le looked at Mrs. Zhou with a smile and said, "Today is the holiday, let her play."

The little girl was only four or five years old, and she didn't know any etiquette. When she heard that she could continue playing, she burst into laughter immediately, and even handed Mi Le a firework stick.

"Miss, here it is!"

Xianglan was startled, and immediately stepped forward to take the firework stick, and corrected the little girl, "It's brother!"

The little girl looked at Mi Le with eyes full of fire, extremely curious.

Mi Le helplessly raised her forehead, why do children call her "sister" when they see her?She was obviously wearing men's clothes, these children, do they have piercing eyes!
"Okay, let's play together!"

Mi Le took the firework stick from Panlan and lit it with the little girl's firework stick. The "squeak" sound accompanied by the bright light of the firework lit up the whole yard.

The little girl immediately became happy and ran in the yard: "Guotai Min'an, Guotai Min'an..."

Mrs. Zhou on the side smiled awkwardly and said, "It's the songs outside during this time, and the children sang along after listening too much."

"Can the ballad sing Guotai Minan?"

Mrs. Zhou explained: "Everyone said that the emperor is here, and our country is peaceful and peaceful. Don't be afraid, everyone is thanking the emperor!"

Xianglan on the side blinked at Mi Le: "Your Majesty, I have heard this song before, and it started to be sung half a month ago."

Yu Quan, who was behind him, immediately said ghostly: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the canal is completed, and the drought epidemic will be resolved quickly. The emperor is a wise king!"

As soon as he said this, the imperial guards who followed all around knelt on the ground and kowtowed. For a moment, the whole mansion was filled with the voice of "Ming Jun".

Standing above the crowd, Mi Le felt for the first time that the word "Mingjun" was so useful. If she could save the common people, then she, the emperor, would be worthy of all sentient beings!
"Get up, since it's a holiday today, everyone doesn't have to keep guard, go and rest."

She turned around and walked into the house. During this period of time, she was so busy that she didn't even have an early sleep. Since it's rare to be free today, she should also have a good sleep and continue working tomorrow morning!

In the early morning of the next day, the built canal officially began to flow water, and the water flowed from the water source all the way to various places. The common people irrigated the farmers, and the water was stored. The local river ponds also began to store water due to the influx of water. Come.

In a few days, everything was in order, coupled with the distribution of disaster relief items by the imperial court, the local disaster situation was finally alleviated.

Master Hai was so excited that he immediately set off for Lin County, using various methods to divert the water flow. After all, there used to be a large sea area in the West Sea.

On the day Mi Le left Qihou County, she was greeted by the local people. Hearing the voices of the people shouting "Long live", she felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. For the first time, she felt that being an emperor seemed to be so meaningful.

Resting at the Linzhen Inn, Mi Le just received a reply from Hou Junli.

Duke Huai's birthday banquet will be held at the end of this month, and he plans to go there in disguise to find out the details of Duke Huai himself.

Mi Le felt that this method was dangerous, but he felt relieved when he thought of Hou Junli's behavior.

Who is Hou Junli, who went deep into the hinterland of bandits all those years ago and came out safe and sound, just to attend a birthday banquet, so he must have already made up his mind.

However, Mi Le still drew a picture of "catch a turtle in a urn" to remind him to be careful.

After Xiangsi sent the letter, she invited Xiao Qi to drink.

During this period of time, they were busy with the affairs of Qihou County, and the two of them hadn't had a good gathering yet.

　Happy New Year, you who are in the epidemic must protect yourselves!Don't panic, don't be afraid, come on!The young master is in Hubei and is with you!
