At this point, Qin Shuo, who had just been treating him coldly, finally had a smile on his face.

"I appreciate your kindness, but even if we were to take out all of the treasury, the disaster in Sui City right now wouldn’t be empty. Even if this is the case, we should still take it out."

Just a moment ago, the Master of the Rites Department who was still feeling proud knew that he had said what he had said when he heard the people who had agreed with Hu Xiao, especially the fact that he knew what Qin Shuo was trying to say.

He had obviously guessed wrongly the emperor’s holy will, but now it was too late even if he regretted it now.

"Your Majesty, I was too careless just now. Please forgive me."

Qin Shuo quickly kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to admit his mistake, but the more he thought about it, the more Qin Shuo was dissatisfied.

"Hmph, I feel that you are thinking very much about Zhou Xiang. I can’t see any flaws in your words just now."

Qin Shuo said calmly, but the more he spoke, the more the people were afraid of him.

"Your Majesty, chenqie feels that this person is unworthy to sit in the position of the Minister of Rites! The people are already so passionate about the money, and yet they’re still so petty about the silver taels. If there’s something bigger in the future, it would be even more difficult to take money from this person, even though this money belongs to Your Majesty."

Not only did his words shock everyone, but Hu Xiao’s words had also caused that person to lose his original high and mighty position.

"The empress is right, coming in is indeed a bit against the rules, so let’s do as she says. I can see that you’re old enough, so you should return home after the Southern Patrol is over. There’s no need to make it look so ugly."

The words that the Emperor had said not only targeted one person, they were also more or less full of tricks. They had been following Qin Shuo quietly for a while, hoping to gain control of him.

"Alright, you may leave."

Qin Shuo naturally saw that some of the people seemed to want to say something, but in his heart, he had lost all thoughts of listening to their words. It was just some nonsense, and the most important thing right now was to fix the channels for Sui City.

’s heart was filled with joy, everything she saw was pleasing to the eye, especially when she saw the truth from Mo Zhu. Just then, Hu Xiao remembered her plan from the hall, and was about to chat about the details with Mo Zhu. However, somehow, Mo Zhu actually turned and left after seeing Hu Xiao.

was a martial arts practitioner after all, so his teaching speed was naturally faster than Mo Zhu’s. However, Mo Zhu acted as if he didn’t know anything and continued to walk forward, completely ignoring Hu Xiao.

Hu Xiao’s heart was a little strange. After all, they were not so unfamiliar in the past, so without caring about anything else, she grabbed Mo Zhu, and pushed him against the wall.

"Empress, men and women should not be intimate with each other ..."

Hu Xiao didn’t understand anything after hearing this, it was probably because Qin Shuo said something behind his back.

However, Hu Xiao didn’t want to let go so quickly. Just a moment ago, she thought that Qin Shuo had handled his own matters well, but as soon as she turned around, this kind of terrible thing happened.

"Mr Mo Zhu, even if men and women are not intimate with each other, don’t you think that it was a little late to say that? I am naturally aware that I have a husband, but with the increasing number of victims in Sui City, you and I have to discuss the matter of the aqueduct from time to time.

Hu Xiao’s words were true, and Mo Zhu closed her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, she heard someone beside him cry out.

"You all ... What are you doing? This official has always known that the Empress’s martial power is very good, but now ... "

Just as Yin Fufeng was about to discuss something with Hu Xiao, he saw Hu Xiao leaving in a hurry, and was curious as to what Hu Xiao was planning to do, so he quickly followed. But now, Yin Fufeng was regretting it, if he knew earlier that he was acting in such an awkward manner, he would not have followed.

Hu Xiao naturally recognized Yin Fufeng’s voice, and after looking at the somewhat panicking Mo Zhu, Hu Xiao slowly released the restrictions on Mo Zhu. In any case, with Yin Fufeng here, Mo Zhu wouldn’t be able to run far.

I am not interested in doing anything with Mr Mo Zhu, but recently someone saw that I am getting closer to Mo Zhu and told him that Mr Mo Zhu is hiding in front of His Majesty.

Hu Xiao smiled merrily as she explained the situation. However, Mo Zhu was looking at Yin Fufeng with a nervous expression, afraid that Yin Fufeng would say something that he shouldn’t have said.

"Oh, so it’s like that! Empress does have a lot of issues to deal with, but in the past, we’ve always been this way. We won’t be able to get over it in an instant, so as long as we don’t do it ourselves, what’s there to be afraid of?"

A look of seriousness flashed across Yin Fufeng’s face, but he soon recovered his composure. He originally did not care much about it, but the sight of Hu Xiao and Mo Zhu caused him to worry.

"Mr Mo Zhu? Did you hear that? "But don’t worry. In the future, I will definitely keep some distance between you two. After all ..."

After all, Qin Shuo’s ability to eat wrongly was first class as well. As the Emperor, he had always been possessive, but Hu Xiao himself knew that he did not have any relationship with the Emperor.

"That’s for the best."

Hu Xiao took a step forward, and Mo Zhu took a step back. He let out a small sigh, and finally, Hu Xiao stood still to not tease Mo Zhu anymore.

"Forget it, what about the well over at the Sui City? Can you give me a few more mouthfuls? "

With her private matters already settled, Hu Xiao asked worriedly. She was no longer persistent.

had been out for the past few days. Thus, on the day of her departure, Hu Xiao passed her method of distinguishing between a underground river and digging a well to Mo Zhu. She only hoped that Mo Zhu could find a new place to drill a well in the Sui City.

There were a lot of victims from Sui City, so even if there were more people using water from the floodwaters, there was still a large number of them.

"Reporting to the Empress, this one has indeed found some places. There is indeed a place outside the city, and there is also another place inside the city. The people outside the city are rather far away, do you want to continue?"

Mo Zhu was naturally very far away from home. Hu Xiao pondered for a moment, and then she had an answer in her heart. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"No need. We just need to take a look at the people in the city. If it’s outside the city, then we don’t need to think about it. If we want to build a canal outside the city, then we need to dig a well."

What Hu Xiao said was not wrong, Mo Zhu did not think that way, but he did not care about the outside of the city.
