Hearty laughter came from the study room, startling the boy standing guard outside the door.

I didn't expect that this new book boy had this skill. On his first day, he managed to flatter the third prince so easily.

It seems that there are two shortcomings, which should not be underestimated.

Jun Moxie is a smart person. When Xu Jinyi mentioned this, he immediately opened up new ideas.

Picking up the brushes, the two of them thought about it and drew several channels.

Looking at Xu Jinyi who was not taking any credit, Jun Moxie patted her shoulder: "If your method works, it can save thousands of people. It can even be used in many places. You are a very talented person. .”

Then Jun Moxie asked his question again: "You didn't participate in this year's imperial examination?"

Xu Jinyi shook his head: "I don't value fame and wealth, but gold will shine wherever it goes."

As if seeing her sincere heart, Jun Moxie raised his hand and rubbed her head.

"Then stay with His Highness, His Highness will not treat you badly."

Xu Jinyi nodded, of course she believed this.

"Gulu gulu..."

Xu Jinyi's face turned red, she held her stomach and looked away, as if she was trying to find a place to get in.

Finally seeing her show the tenderness of a child, Jun Moxie laughed deeply.

"Wang Shun, prepare a meal."

"Yes."

Seeing the exquisite dishes filling the table, Xu Jinyi thought it was time for her to go down and eat.

Jun Moxie patted the seat next to him: "Sit."

Xu Jinyi was stunned and declined: "Your Highness, this...is against the rules."

"There are no rules. You have made great contributions to what happened today. Let's sit down and have a meal together."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Wang Shun was also surprised, and then placed Xu Jinyi's bowls and chopsticks.

I once again lamented that Xu Jinyi was such a sycophant, and it took him just one day to become a popular figure around the third prince.

Xu Jinyi's eyes were bright, and her eyebrows would curl up like the moon when she saw the eunuch serving her favorite dishes.

All his thoughts are displayed on his face, making it easy to understand at a glance.

It's nice to get along with such easy-to-understand people, so you don't have to worry.

In this way, Xu Jinyi gained a lot of points in Mo Junxie's heart.

After finishing the meal, Mo Junxie took the map and headed to the palace. The rainy season was coming, and he had to start building the channel before then.

It's still snowing here in the capital, but the weather is gradually getting warmer in the south of the Yangtze River.

In the Imperial Study Room, several ministers from the Ministry of Industry listened to Jun Moxie's speech, their faces glowing with excitement.

The scene was once exciting, and one minister even clapped his hands and applauded.

"If the method of digging canals to release floods is feasible, then this method can be used in places where floods occur every year. Once effective, it can save thousands of people from floods and fires."

"Yes, if the Third Prince's method works, he will have a long history."

The ministers gathered around Jun Moxie to praise him, but they did not notice that the emperor sitting above him was staring at Mo Junxie with more scrutiny and dissatisfaction.

But when all the ministers turned around, the emperor changed back to his kind face.

"This method is good, but the national treasury is currently in deficit, and digging canals consumes too much money. If all the money is allocated to the Jiangnan area, then the military salary for the border defense in the next quarter will not be paid."

The emperor sighed, expressing concern.

Jun Moxie handed over his hand and said, "I believe that we should first stabilize the people's morale and then the military's morale. If one side is in trouble, all parties will support it."

"My son is willing to be the leader and donate 200,000 taels to dig ditches."

Seeing that the future prince was so caring and insightful, the minister of the Ministry of Industry looked at the third prince with admiration.

Emperor: Well, you think that you, a prince, can make decisions without me. There is nothing you dare not do.

Okay, really good.

"Since you, Third Prince, are so concerned about this matter, then follow it to the end. I will give you full responsibility for digging ditches in the south of the Yangtze River. The Ministry of Industry will assist the Third Prince."

Jun Moxie held up his hand and said, "Yes, I will set out for Jiangnan soon. I will definitely handle this matter and live up to the emperor's favor."

When only the father and son were left in the imperial study, the emperor asked his personal eunuch to take out a box of pills sealed with agarwood.

"This is a heart-nourishing pill. One pill every day will make you feel better, so that you can be able to complete the flood discharge in Jiangnan."

"Don't let your other brothers know."

Jun Moxie took it with a smile on his face: "Thank you very much, Father, for the gift. I will definitely live up to your trust."

"Well, it's a long way to Jiangnan this time. I'll send ten imperial guards to protect you all the way."

The Imperial Guards were masters who could only be dispatched by the emperor. They obeyed the emperor's orders, which shows how much the emperor valued the third prince.

Jun Moxie looked at his father who was thinking about him, and his heart moved slightly.

Little did he know that after he left, the emperor pushed all the memorials on the table in the imperial dining room to the floor, his face full of anger.

When his eyes fell on the map, his face became even more gloomy and gloomy.

Eunuch Zhao stood with his head bowed and went aside. Knowing that the emperor was suspicious and greedy for power, he sighed deeply for the third prince in his heart.

Xu Jinyi frowned slightly when she learned that Jun Moxie was going to Jiangnan.

This didn't happen in the previous life. It seemed that it would be difficult for the third prince to come back after he left.

Seeing Jun Moxie arranging matters, Xu Jinyi stepped forward and held his hand: "Your Highness, can Yijin go with us on our trip south?"

Xu Jinyi is relatively petite, and her actions always make people feel funny.

It's like a child secretly wearing an adult's clothes, pretending to be mature and steady.

Jun Moxie covered his lips and coughed lightly: "It's a long way to go south. You may encounter bandits along the way. I'm afraid it will be dangerous. Just stay in the house."

Xu Jinyi shook his head: "Because it is dangerous to go here, I have to go even more. I want to protect His Highness."

The secret guard on the side pursed his lips and suppressed a smile.

Jun Moxie was also surprised: "You are so thin, how can you protect me?"

Xu Jinyi was stunned and looked at herself. Compared with men, her frame was much smaller, especially her waist.

In order not to look so thin, her breasts were wrapped in a large piece, and even her abdomen was wrapped several times.

It's still cold now, so she's wearing a lot of clothes, so she's not too thin.

"Your Highness, don't you believe that I can protect you? My skills are no worse than his. If you don't believe, we can show off."

Secret guard Ling Feng looked Xu Jinyi up and down, his eyes clearly disbelieving: "Okay, then let's make some gestures."

Moreover, what Xu Jinyi just said is that his skills are not inferior to him, and he is the most skilled among the secret guards.

So during the gesture, Ling Feng planned to teach her a lesson, and of course it was enough. After all, you can't bully a child.

In the yard, two figures, one white and one black, were inseparable. Ling Feng, who was originally just having a playful attitude, became more and more serious.

The moves became more and more cruel, and every time he thought he was about to hit Xu Jinyi, she dodged him perfectly.

This also let him know that what Xu Jinyi said just now was not only the truth, but also modest.

This kind of skill is not only no worse than him, but simply superior to him.

It was a rare encounter with an opponent. Ling Feng's eyes became brighter and brighter, looking at Xu Jinyi as if he saw a confidant.
