Next, Lin Xue and Rong Jin went to various places to inspect the situation and also to check the dredging of the river channels.
The prefect of Jiangnan was overjoyed to see the silt being cleared from the old river channels.
After this dredging, there should be no more flooding in the Jiangnan region for the next seven or eight years.
It might last even longer, and there won't be any large-scale floods within ten years.
This is an absolutely fantastic thing.
Looking at the dredged waterways, Lin Xue thought of something, took out a prescription from her spatial storage, and handed it to her subordinate.
"Send this thing back to the palace with the utmost speed and deliver it to my imperial brother!"
Rong Jin watched with some curiosity as his young wife handed a piece of paper to the servants below.
"What did you take this time?"
Since he began dual cultivation with Lin Xue, Rong Jin has made rapid progress. Compared to the guards, this regent, who originally came from the martial arts world, has even greater talent.
In just one night, he had already mastered the art of drawing qi into his body.
In the days that followed, the Regent seemed to have become a different person, constantly pestering Lin Xue for this and that...
Lin Xue felt as if she didn't even recognize the man in front of her anymore.
"It's a cement formula, something that can harden the ground!"
"Once my brother has finished his research, we'll use cement to reinforce both sides of the river and build embankments!"
“Roads in the city would be easier to walk on if they were reinforced with cement, but these things don’t last forever and always need to be repaired every 10 or 20 years.”
Lin Xue had nothing to hide from Rong Jin.
"Honey, you've brought way too much stuff!"
"But when will you teach me the art of divination?"
What Rong Jin longed for most was Lin Xue's ability to predict good and bad fortune.
He wanted to learn this skill so that he could predict the weather and prevent future disasters.
This way, we can prevent problems before they occur.
Although he disliked life in the imperial court, the thought of the people living in poverty made him feel that it would be good to do something to improve their living conditions.
"I have detailed books on divination; I'll get them for you later!"
Lin Xue extended her finger and hooked it into the other person's palm, then turned her head with a smile.
Looking at the busy crowd in the distance, Lin Xue always felt a sense of loss.
Even now, with someone standing next to me, I still have that feeling.
Although she liked this man very much, Lin Xue always felt that she was looking at a different person through his appearance.
She couldn't remember exactly who it was, but she just felt a dull ache in her heart... a sense of unease.
After inspecting the river, the two continued their inspections in various counties and towns.
They dealt with the corrupt officials along the way.
If there is really no one who can replace him, just appoint an acting county magistrate.
Those she selected were all students who had already achieved academic success.
If they followed the normal procedure, they would need to go to the capital again to take the imperial examination. After going through layers of selection, they would be chosen by the emperor and then granted official positions and assigned to posts.
But Lin Xue skipped this step directly; she would do it as long as she had the ability.
If you do well in the later stages, skip the exam step; if you don't, go home and continue with the scientific expedition.
This is a chance to change one's destiny, and I believe these people will be able to seize it.
After all, she didn't just pick people randomly; she carefully observed them before finally choosing these few.
These people are all capable, knowledgeable, and have a heart that cares for the people.
It's sufficient for either side.
When the Regent Princess and the Regent Prince returned to the capital, Lin Beichen had already prepared a banquet to welcome them.
Lin Xue and Rong Jin's affair was not kept secret from everyone, so the emperor had already learned of it.
He was naturally very happy to see the two of them get together.
After all, the Regent has both ability and talent, and he is also morally upright, unlike Xu Zixuan before, who was always looking for something better than what he had...
The only slight regret is that the regent is a bit old.
It's really a shame that he's paired with his sister!
Can……
At the banquet, Lin Beichen directly bestowed marriage upon the two of them and set the wedding date very soon.
Xu Zixuan was completely unsettled after learning that Lin Xue was going to marry the Regent.
He didn't take it to heart when Lin Xue broke off the engagement with him.
Based on his understanding of the original owner, he guessed that this princess was throwing a tantrum again, and he planned to retreat in order to advance.
Now we have received news that she will be married to the Regent in a month.
This news really caught Xu Zixuan completely off guard.
How could she marry someone else?
Anger and humiliation made Xu Zixuan impatient to wait a moment longer.
He didn't even bother looking for Liu Wanru, and went straight to the princess's residence.
"Why is Scholar Xu not at home with his beloved, but instead running off to the princess's residence?"
When the guards saw Xu Zixuan arrive, they asked him with a mocking expression.
Don't underestimate them just because they are servants. As servants in the princess's residence, they are a grade higher than ordinary minor officials.
How prestigious was the Regent Princess's position in the Tianqi Dynasty?
I was just confused for a moment before, which is why I fell for this handsome but unattractive scholar, Xu Tanhua.
Now the princess's blindness has finally been cured, and she has chosen an equally excellent regent.
What does Xu Zixuan have to do with this?
Only now are you starting to panic?
