The imperial concubine was spoiled by the prince again

Chapter 700
Because of the crown prince's guarantee, the people at the dam site did not move out. Now that they heard about the crack, many people packed their bags overnight and planned to flee.

When people are in a hurry, accidents are easy to happen.

The peaceful and stable days were disrupted, and the people instinctively wanted to find someone to blame.

The crown prince who claimed that building a dam could fight drought and flood was the first to bear the brunt, and he became the person responsible for it in their minds.

If there is no arrangement to quell this matter, I am afraid that there will be public grievances.

Xiao Yunming was happy to see the success, and secretly found many people to fan the flames. It is said that the residents near the dam had "spontaneously" written the wishes of all people, demanding that another prince be established.

Liu Yushi's face was flushed when he went to court today, as if he wasn't the one who suffered a few days ago.

At the beginning of the early court, he counted the prince's many crimes eloquently, and emphasized the "Wanminyuan" issue.

"As long as the prince spends more time on the business, this situation will not happen."

"It takes a lot of time and energy to waste people and money, and it turns out to be a joke!"

"What did His Royal Highness say?"

"His Royal Highness vowed that after the dam is completed, there will be no need to worry about floods during the flood season. What about now?"

"When His Highness spoke big words, did you ever think about what kind of terrible disaster the people would encounter?"

The emperor was upset, very upset.

Recently, the capital city is not peaceful, and the dam actually has problems.

It is emphasized that there were still flaws in the construction.

When he finds out which bastard is acting obsequiously and violatingly, he will have to kill that person!

But that's all for later. The plan now is to quell public anger and do a good job of remedial work before the dam collapses.

He turned his attention to Xiao Yunzhi, who also happened to take a step forward. He cupped his hands and said, "The materials for the construction of the dam are all purchased from Huangshang, which has been in business for many years."

"The importance of this has been emphasized many times since the dam's inception."

"Even if those profiteers don't care about the human lives involved in the dam, aren't they afraid of death themselves?"

"Even though money is good, it also has life. I don't think anyone would be so bold as to cut corners at such a time."

When he said this, he took a special look at Zheng Lian.

That's right, the Imperial Merchant was a vassal of the Zheng family, and it was Zheng Lian who recommended the Imperial Merchant in the first place.

The emperor knew that Zheng Lian was not an upright official, but he had been in business for many years and was used to being cautious. Even if he wanted to be greedy, he would not dare to do things on the cusp of such a storm.

On the contrary, just because the dam is so important, Zheng Lian will do things beautifully even if he loses money.

Xiao Yunzhi's opening directly involved the Zheng family, and Liu Yushi hurriedly looked away from Zheng Lian: "I'm not saying that the materials purchased by His Royal Highness are not good, and please don't confuse the public!"

Xiao Yunzhi smiled lightly: "Then Liu Yushi means that the Ministry of War has insufficient supervision, or that the local people found in the local area were cheating and cheating when they built the dam for themselves?"

Liu Yushi was at a loss for words.

The workers are all found locally, knowing that the dam is built for themselves, knowing that it is related to the land where they live, whoever is crazy will not do his best.

Moreover, the imperial court paid special attention to this matter, and the Ministry of War supervised and followed up the whole process.

What should he say next?
"Your Majesty has learned from you, this minister is just saying something that hurts my ears."

Seeing his silence, Xiao Yunzhi smiled.

"However, not all harsh words are good advice."

"Master Liu just kept saying that Gu is responsible for this matter, why didn't he make it clear, which step Gu did not do well and needs to be held accountable?"

Liu Yushi hesitated, Xiao Yunzhi sneered: "I can't blame Gu, can I?"
