Sister Zheng spat lightly, and couldn't help but said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, and you're still so dishonest."

Bai Su rubbed his nose slightly, said with a smile: "Weichen is an honest man, he always says what he says."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Sister Zheng twice more.

It's just because the political sister in front of her is really amazing.

She was wearing a black plain dress, and her jet-black hair was pulled up like a woman's. Her stomach, which was originally flat, was now bulging high.

The breeze was blowing, and the jet-black hair fluttered, revealing a graceful and luxurious face. While showing the empress' nobility, there seemed to be a touch of maternal softness on her body. Under the moonlight, it was as beautiful as a picture scroll.

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su's dumbfounded look, and her vermilion lips couldn't help curling up.

Her slender jade hands raised the blue hair between her eyebrows, revealing her fair and slender collarbone, and said, "Thank you for your hard work during the time when I am inconvenient to handle government affairs."

Bai Su smiled, and said: "It's only right for me to do this, but Your Majesty... is in the deep palace, so I didn't expect to know so much about the news from the outside world?"

Sister Zheng glanced at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes with great interest: "Although I am not in court, I know everything about the world like the back of my hand, including...that little girl you brought back from Chu."

Bai Su coughed suddenly: "Ahem, Your Majesty, listen to my explanation, there is actually a reason for this..."

Sister Zheng rolled her eyes: "Don't say such polite words in front of me, don't I know what kind of person you are?"

As she said that, she couldn't help but sighed, and looked at Bai Su helplessly.

That meaning is obvious, what kind of virtue is your lsp, she still doesn't know.

Bai Su scratched his cheek, looking a little embarrassed for a moment.

Seeing this, Sister Zheng was not teasing Bai Su anymore, she asked, "Tell me what happened these days in detail."

Upon hearing this, Bai Su briefly talked about the rebellion between the Xiongnu in Mobei and the Allied Forces of the Central Plains.

Sister Zheng's beautiful brows frowned slightly: "This specific situation is more than a hundred times more dangerous than the content in the newspaper. It is also thanks to you that you were able to force Wang Kuanglan and defeat that Xiang Yu. According to the current trend, Kyushu will be together." It's just a matter of time."

Bai Su nodded and said, "After losing Xiang Yu, the current rebel army has no leader and is just a mess. The world will be unified within three months at most."

Sister Zheng frowned a lot, and said: "It's easy to destroy the state of Chu, but it's hard to completely eliminate the rebellion of the Chu people. This land of Chu has been sparsely populated since ancient times. There are many locals. The aristocratic families of the Chu State governed."

"The Chu State in the past seemed to have a vast territory, but in fact, within the territory, there were kingdoms within states everywhere, and the imperial government's decree could never go down to the county."

"These problems that caused headaches for the monarch of Chu State in the past, it is our turn to have headaches..."

As she spoke, she couldn't help rubbing her temples.

This is an almost unsolvable problem. Xianyang can send millions of troops south to quell the rebellion in a short period of time, but there is no way to gain a foothold in Chu for a long time.

After all, the distance is too far, and the logistics consumption along the way is too great.

It is impossible to maintain a large-scale garrison for a long time without the outbreak of war.

If there is no way to establish effective control in the local area, it can only be doomed to have the name of a county in the local area, but the control power of the imperial court is very weak, and it needs to rely on the local aristocratic family to govern.

Just like this time...

A group of remnants of the Chu Kingdom headed by King Huai of Chu raised their arms and shouted, Chu land quickly responded from all directions, and within a short period of time, one side was separated.

If this cannot be solved, even if the lost ground is regained today, there will not be many troops to dispatch in a short period of time if there is any problem in Xianyang in the future.

The Chu land, which is far away, may still be separated at any time.

If you don't try to solve this problem, you will face the same situation in the future.

Bai Su said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. I already have a way to integrate the north and south."

Sister Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "Oh, what can I do?"

Bai Su smiled slightly: "Dig the Grand Canal."

"canal?"

Bai Su nodded lightly, took out a map and spread it out on the table, pointed to the waters above, and said, "Your Majesty, please see that the situation in Chu is complicated, and the water network is densely covered. In the past, when the army wanted to go south."

"Need to follow dense forests and mountain roads. Not only is the journey far, but it is also extremely inconvenient. Just going back and forth will take a month or so. It is so cumbersome when the world is peaceful, let alone when the world is in chaos. .”

"But if we dig out a grand canal, the situation will be completely different."

"Directly pass through the canal to connect the north and the south, forming a huge traffic artery. When the world needs to be governed, whether it is leather and timber from the north to the south, or grain, tea, and bamboo weaving from the south to the north, it is very convenient. and saving on transportation costs.”

"If there is another rebellion in Chu, we can use the canal to transport a large amount of food, grass and supplies in a short period of time at a very low transportation cost, and lead the army to quickly go south to suppress the rebellion."

"In this way, the north and the south can form a situation of continuous integration in terms of economy and culture. The south will no longer have a long-term separatist regime and the possibility of confrontation between the north and the south."

Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes lit up immediately, she never thought that there was such a solution.

If it is said that she built Chidao and the Great Wall at the border to form the whole north as a whole, then Bai Su's proposal of digging the Grand Canal is to include the more distant south.

This is simply a meritorious deed for the present, benefiting the future, and blessing future generations.

After all, with this Grand Canal, no matter who unifies the north in the future, they will turn their eyes to the south and go all the way south along the Grand Canal to complete the great cause of unification.

The system of the unified dynasty created by her will continue for thousands of generations.

She is eternal, the First Emperor.

And all the credit is due to the man in front of him.

Sister Zheng stared closely at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes, and after pondering for a long time, she said, "You always bring surprises to me, and I don't even know how to reward you."

Bai Su smiled and said, "Your Majesty, haven't you already rewarded me with the most precious gift?"

Sister Zheng was stunned for a moment, and followed Bai Su's gaze to look down. It was her slightly bulging stomach, which looked like it was about seven or eight months old.

360 Chapter Four

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su who was blinking in front of her, and rolled her eyes involuntarily.

She stroked her stomach lightly, and sighed slightly: "It's really regrettable. I traveled among the people and wanted to get a thousand-mile horse, but I didn't expect your horse to have such a big appetite. You gave me a reward, so I gave you a reward." I also took it in."

A smile appeared on Bai Su's face, and he said, "Being able to hug such a beautiful woman like His Majesty, Bai will have no regrets in this life."

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su with genuine eyes, and spat lightly, seeming to be disgusted, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

Obviously, she also attached great importance to Bai Su, his lover.

After all, she had a rough life since she was a child, she experienced countless betrayals in her life, and she didn't even have a trustworthy person around her.

Her biological mother wanted to kill her, her adoptive father, Lu Buwei, wanted to use her as a puppet, and her younger brother wanted to conspire against the forces in the court. Even her close friends who grew up together in childhood sent assassins to kill her.

For the ordinary people, family affection and friendship are completely beyond luxury for her.

She thought she would spend her whole life as a loner, guarding the throne alone, but now she also met someone who could completely let go of her guard and entrust her body and mind to the other person.

Even, in her heart, she trusted Bai Su more than her two daughters.

The reason is simple...

Since ancient times, the ruthless emperor's family, when sitting on the dragon chair, the first thing to think about is always the country, the country, and the love of children, they have to lean back in front of power.

It's the same even if the person facing her is her own daughter.

And Bai Su has no interest in the dragon chair sitting under her at all, she herself is sitting on the dragon chair.

Naturally, I wouldn't worry about such an unambitious and extremely satisfying lsp.

Sister Zheng's slender jade hands raised the blue hair between her eyebrows, revealing her fair and slender collarbone. She glanced at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes: "You want to dig a canal, such a large project, I'm afraid it will take a long time."

Bai Su held Sister Zheng in his arms, hugged her slender waist, and gently stroked her swollen belly with his hands. Sister Zheng's fair neck rose slightly, but she didn't stop her at all, letting her lover mischief.

He said with a smile: "This is not a quick success strategy, but a century-old strategy. It may take ten years or even decades in the future to slowly implement it."

"If you are too anxious, it is easy to do bad things with good intentions, which will cause an excessive burden on the common people. The situation in Chudi is finally stable, and there will be worries about chaos again."

"So just take your time. After the rebellion in Chu is quelled, you can use the method of labor relief to stabilize the situation among the people on the one hand, and on the other hand, let the local people actively help us build the project."

"This thing is just like Dayu's flood control. It can't see the effect in a short period of time in the early stage, but when it is really connected, the advantages of the canal will gradually become prominent. Goods from the south are sold to the north, grain from the north is harvested from the south, and even You can encourage the people in the Northland to move south in large numbers, and go to the local area to reclaim the land..."

"At that time, the prosperity of the Central Plains will surpass all previous dynasties, and the three emperors and five emperors will be amazed by it."

Sister Zheng was full of smiles, feeling Bai Su's big hand gently stroking, her phoenix eyes were full of tenderness, she knew clearly that Bai Su was originally a man of idle clouds and wild cranes.

Under normal circumstances, paddling for fish, eating and waiting for death is what this man really wants to do, but now Bai Su has done so much, all for her.

Seeing Bai Su in front of her who was constantly thinking about whether there were any flaws in the policy, she couldn't help being moved in her heart.

After pondering for a long time, she suddenly said, "Come here..."

Bai Su was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously turned his head: "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Sister Zheng stared closely at Bai Su's cheek with her phoenix eyes. Under his surprised gaze, her white jade hands gently cupped his cheek, and slowly approached his cheek, her thin red lips lightly touched his forehead.

"Don't worry, I'm too tired..."

Bai Su looked at Sister Zheng who was looking at him tenderly in front of him, couldn't help smiling, and stretched out his hand to stop Sister Zheng's waist, feeling proud in his heart.

.......

.......

In a wing room.

Xiang Yu's beautiful brows were furrowed for a while, as if he was having a nightmare, and his eyelids kept twitching.

At this moment, pictures flashed through her mind rapidly.

On the battlefield full of blood and smoke.

Surrounded by her guards, she retreated towards the rear when she was young, and the last thing she saw when she looked up was the scene of her grandfather, who was defeated on the battlefield and unable to defend the Chu State, slaying himself with his sword in despair.

It was raining heavily, in the icy rain, the state of Chu was destroyed, her grandfather died in battle, and she lost everything, sitting under an ancient tree in a daze, letting the rain slide down her cheeks, completely unsure of what to do.

A girl in a red dress held a bamboo umbrella to shield her from the rain, and asked her name and why she was in the rain here. The girl smiled and stretched out her little white hand, saying that her name was Yu Ji.

Years later, the two grew up together in Jiangdong.

Concubine Yu was sitting on the corridor, playing the piano softly, while she was dancing the Overlord Spear in the courtyard, learning the art of war day after day, practicing martial arts to strengthen her body, everything was so beautiful.

At that time, she coughed lightly, deliberately attracting Yu Ji's attention.

Then, suppressing the tension in her heart, she rubbed her nose and said that in the future, after she overthrew Daxia and restored Chu State, she would take Yu Ji, who had never left Jiangdong since she was a child, and was very yearning for the outside world, to visit the prosperous capital of Chu State .

Yu Ji was stunned for a moment, then smiled, hooked her fingers together, and nodded.

But when she became the general of Chu State and ordered the three armies to go north, Yu Ji seemed to have forgotten her childhood agreement and left her.

At the gate of the camp, she stretched out her hand blankly, looking at Yu Ji's receding figure.

On the subsequent battlefield, she gritted her teeth and vowed to take back everything, but the battle became more and more unfavorable.

She clearly has the bravery to shake the mountains and rivers and the five peaks, but in the face of endless enemy forces, her proud divine power seems to be gradually exhausted, and the overlord spear is gradually unable to wield it.

He could only watch helplessly as a steady stream of enemy soldiers stabbed towards him with long spears in their hands.

"Whoo~"

Xiang Yu opened his eyes all of a sudden, and sat up from the bed suddenly, but suddenly found that he was lying on a big soft bed, and his body was wrapped in circles of white cloth. It was obvious that someone helped her bandage it. wounded.

This... what's going on here?

I remember that I was surrounded by groups on the battlefield, why did I suddenly appear in a strange room now, could it be... Is I already dead?

"Ah, Yu'er, you're awake!"

A surprised woman's voice came from her ear, and then, a woman's pretty face appeared in her sight.

This is a stunning beauty in a red dress, with a bright and attractive appearance, dignified and beautiful, whoever it is if it is not Yu Ji.

Seeing Yu Ji who was so close in front of him, Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, and said in disbelief, "Yu... Yu Ji, why are you here..."

Yu Ji was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yu'er, are you sleepy?"

As she spoke, she gently placed the chicken soup she brought on the table, walked over slowly, raised her snow-white wrist, and pressed her gentle jade-like hand on Xiang Yu's forehead, feeling nothing unusual after feeling the temperature Then, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiang Yu hadn't recovered yet, she asked stupidly: "Yu Ji, am I not in a decisive battle with Xia Jun, why am I here suddenly, what is this..."

Yu Ji bit her lips lightly, and said, "Yu'er, the battle of Xia Chu is over, you...you lost, after the war, Master Bai took you back to Xianyang..."

Xiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, and pictures appeared in her mind one by one, and it was only then that she realized it.

By the way, I remembered that I lost, to that Bai Su.

She looked around the display in the room, and said with a sneer: "So, then Bai Su wants to imitate what Xia Jun did in the past and imprison me in Xianyang so that he can torture me all the time?"

Yu Ji hurriedly said: "Yu'er, you have misunderstood my lord. My lord has never thought about it that way. The reason why he brought you to Xianyang is to let you see a different scenery."

"And my lord also said that no matter what you think about it in the future, he will let you go after one year. In order to save your life, my lord has paid a very high price. You must not say that, my lord, Yu'er. what."
