Xia Jiuyou sat on the luxurious dragon chariot, admiring the surrounding scenery.

It's early summer and everything is in full bloom.

Wild flowers are blooming everywhere in this spring city.

Red, purple, pink, yellow, like brilliant spots embroidered on a green carpet.

Now there is neither the chilly coldness of the beginning of spring.

There is no hot impetuousness and laziness in midsummer.

The sky is calm and the vegetation is happy.

Even Concubine Jin, who had been playing tricks all the time, frowned in this beautiful scenery.

"Your Majesty, shall we go sightseeing first or investigate the customs?"

Wei Zhongxian rode around the dragon chariot and approached Xia Jiuyou and asked obsequiously.

His fat body was trembling on the horseback.

Such a funny scene made the corners of Xia Jiuyou's mouth rise slightly.

"I've heard for a long time that there is a famous Daming Lake in this spring city. Let's go there and have a look."

Xia Jiuyou said lazily.

The breeze blowing in front of him made him a little tired.

"Your Majesty, what is that?"

Concubine Jin, who was obviously much more cheerful after leaving the palace, leaned gently by his side.

It woke up the emperor who was about to sleep in the beautiful scenery.

Xia Jiuyou, who was awake, looked at the smile on Concubine Jin's pretty face.

I knew she must be deliberately disturbing her nap.

"Where is it? Let me see."

Xia Jiuyou reached out and hugged Concubine Jin in her arms, and kissed her regardless of her blushing face.

The guarding ladies next to her hurriedly turned their heads away.

I am afraid that I will desecrate the holy face.

"Your Majesty! If you bully me again, I will..."

Concubine Jin, who had been hesitating for a long time, couldn't think of anything she could do to threaten Xia Jiuyou.

I had no choice but to turn my head away angrily.

"I'm leaving you alone."

He even beat Xia Jiuyou lightly with his small white fist.

Xia Jiuyou could see her blushing face through her fair and slender neck.

While the two were laughing and playing, the marching team was gradually approaching the center of Spring City.

But in the past, there were still people coming and going on the streets.

At this time, there was no one else.

A bleak scene.

Seeing this scene, Wei Zhongxian wished to pull those officials out to whip them.

Notify local authorities before travelling.

Let them display the most prosperous scenes, so that the emperor and the people can have fun together.

But now that the majestic Emperor Xia is traveling, there is no one on the street shouting long live.

Do all officials, big and small, in Quancheng want to beg for resignation?

"Your Majesty, the official greets you late, and I hope Long Live forgive me!"

A fourth-rank official dressed in Yunyan patch knelt down in front of the dragon chariot,
The wide and wide sleeves were spread on the ground regardless of the mud on the ground.

"Isn't this Li Quan, the prefect of Quancheng, Mr. Li?"

Wei Zhongxian got off his horse and saluted Li Quan.

There was a trace of anxiety on the smiling face.

While saluting, he leaned into the ear of the prefect of Quancheng and whispered,
"Didn't I tell you to get someone ready to pick you up? Why is there no one on the street?"

"Are you deliberately embarrassing the emperor, or are you tired of wearing this black gauze hat?"

As Emperor Xia's personal eunuch, Wei Zhongxian had received officials of all sizes in this spring city in the past few days.

The prefect of Quancheng has also been here several times.

He also secretly gave Wei Zhongxian a lot of oil and water.

But when Emperor Xia finally had time to travel.

This Li Quan has lost the chain!

This made Wei Zhongxian not angry or annoyed.

"Eunuch Wei, the lower officials don't want to."

"The truth is that there are really no free people in this spring city."

"I also hope that you will speak kindly in front of His Majesty, so don't be annoyed."

This Quancheng prefect is also a man who has been in the officialdom for many years.

While speaking, he quietly handed over a large ingot of silver.

Wei Zhongxian weighed the heavy weight in his sleeves.

With a satisfied smile,

There seemed to be a flower blooming on the fat face.

"Fortunately, His Majesty is in a good mood today, and the beauty of your spring city has eased His Majesty's heart."

"Otherwise I don't know how to speak for you."

Naturally, the small actions of these two people couldn't hide it from Xia Jiuyou who was on the dragon chariot.

As a pinnacle top expert.

Even the wind and grass within a radius of [-] meters could not escape his eyes and ears.

Seeing Xiao Jiujiu behind their backs, Xia Jiuyou was not only not annoyed.

In my heart, I still feel that this day is really more and more hopeful.

If the officials are upright and have a clean sleeve,
When will Xia Kingdom's national fortune be defeated?

"Who is kneeling?"

Xia Jiuyou's faint voice was full of the majesty of an emperor,

Let Li Quan quickly lower his head and amplify the volume a little.

"The next official is Li Quan, the prefect of Quancheng. I am late to pick you up, and I hope my emperor will forgive me!"

Wei Zhongxian, who had taken the other party's money, hurried to make amends.

"Your Majesty, this person has visited the palace many times before."

"It's just because you are busy with government affairs that you didn't see it."

Li Quan, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head slightly, and cast a grateful look at Wei Zhongxian.

"Why are there so few pedestrians in this spring city? Could it be that they were too drunk last night?"

Although there was no tone of blame in Xia Jiuyou's words.

Just a simple question.

Yesterday, he had a feast for the whole city people, if they all drank too much, it is not out of the question.

"Return to Your Majesty, that's not the case."

"Although the common people are greedy for drinking, they don't delay the busy farming. Therefore, few people sleep until noon and don't get up."

No matter how tactful and sophisticated Li Quan was, he would not dare to deceive the Holy Majesty.

Seeing that the emperor asked this point, he had no choice but to tell the whole story.

"Except for those who are busy with farming, all the people in Quancheng have rushed to that barren stone town."

"There's a group of people out there who hire people to do simple handicrafts at a very high cost."

"All the green-skinned idlers who used to be idle have rushed over, and even the most tired beggars have driven two miles to beg for a job."

The words of the prefect of Quancheng tried to clear up his responsibility as much as possible.

It seems that the people are willing to go to this deserted street.

In fact, he also took 300 taels of silver from Yan County Cheng of Huangshi Town to help promote it.

But he didn't expect Emperor Xia to go out suddenly today and catch a glimpse of this deserted street.

After hearing this, Xia Jiuyou roughly understood what was going on.

Under the temptation of great profit, Yan Xiancheng and Taoist Shi Ran really went all out.

In just one day, all the people in Quancheng were pulled over to work.

"It doesn't matter, the common people can live a more prosperous life if they can earn more."

"Isn't this a good thing to increase people's interests?"

There was a trace of anticipation on Xia Jiuyou's face,
He wants to see who can stop him from ruining the country's fortune this time.

This time he was on the side of the vast ocean of the people.

Anyone who stops him will cut off the wealth of the people in Quancheng.
