Chapter 55 The Battle of the Canal
There is a woolly opinion, my opinion is, let me go home, please?I don't want to play falling into the water with Song Rinru, I don't want to watch you practice evil skills, I don't want to meet the angel to heal the prince's wounds, and I don't want to discuss the opening of the canal with you!

I just... came to have a low-key meal!

Xia Yunran felt that there must be no one more sad than her tonight. Under Song Mutian's roll call greeting, under the gentle gaze of hundreds of people at the banquet, under Song Yuerong's eager anticipation, and even more so during Song Rongru's gloating With a smile on her face, she had nowhere to hide and stood up slowly.

"Actually, I think it would be great to open the canal." Xia Yunran said very slowly, with a slightly flattering smile.

In an instant, I saw Song Yuerong's uncontainable disappointment who had been looking at her, heard Song Rinru's contemptuous snort behind her, saw Song Muyan shaking his head and smiling, and Song Mutian's expected satisfaction, and more... …there……

Xia Yunran's heart suddenly twitched. A figure in a white robe stood far away from the chairman's side. It was clear and cold, not stained with dust. It seemed to be watching this side quietly. That figure Like a god?

She didn't know how she saw him so far away, but the moment she saw him, after her heart tightened, she suddenly gained strength.

After a pause of three seconds, Xia Yunran continued to speak unexpectedly: "However, what His Royal Highness said is very reasonable. It is not appropriate to start construction on the canal in a hurry, and a long-term plan is needed."

These words changed the atmosphere suddenly. This change not only included Xia Yunran's unexpected answer, but also her lines. She said that His Royal Highness said that the canal should not be started immediately. This issue is not what was discussed before. The problem of not opening the canal.

Only Song Muyan's eyes lit up, looking at her expectantly.

"I don't know if you have noticed that His Royal Highness has always said that the construction cannot be started immediately, and a decision must be made after the survey. It seems that His Royal Highness has never said that the canal must not be opened." Xia Yunran He continued, with a calm voice, "Yun Ran presumes His Highness the Crown Prince's meaning should be that if you want to open the canal, you need to make all preparations, think carefully, and make a decision after the arrangement is beneficial."

This is an ingenious concept of subterfuge. This answer can be advanced, offensive, retreating or defensive. If the arrangement is not good, it will naturally not work, but how to make it a good arrangement is another issue they need to debate. This will not only resolve Song Muyan The point of contention with everyone helped Song Muyan to establish his image of foresight and consideration.

"Is...is that so?" Someone said hesitantly.

"I, a little girl who has never read the books of sages, can understand the problem, and I think everyone can understand it." Xia Yunran smiled, glanced at the people present, especially stopped for a moment on Xia Lingfeng's face , but saw that his expression was a bit complicated, she turned her gaze away and landed on Song Muyan, "His Royal Highness originally wanted to explain clearly, but everyone was too eager to give His Royal Highness a chance to explain."

For a while, there was no sound, and no one dared to answer.

No one answered, so she continued: "Actually, I think that instead of discussing whether to open or not, and when to start construction, it is better to think about how to determine the excavation route according to the terrain, where to divert water, and how to solve the problem of corvee distribution. , Where does the labor force come from, how to deal with the excavated stones, etc., etc., I think these questions are much more meaningful.”

The voice was like jade beads falling on a plate, neither light nor heavy, but it hit people's heart crisply. After she finished speaking, there was another burst of silence.

"Hahahaha, the one who knows me is Yunran." Song Muyan was the first to speak. He smiled heartily and said, stepping on the ladder laid by Xia Yunran, "I never said that the canal must not be opened. This palace believes that if the survey results are suitable and various problems such as corvee can be properly resolved, the canal will definitely open..."

The words in the following scenes belonged to Song Muyan. Although he was innocent and kind, he was not a complete fool. He was very clear about what to say and what attitude to take. The initiative and the right to speak had finally returned to him.

Xia Yunran sat down, and Song Yuerong expressed her gratitude as if seeing her savior, asking if she could teach her such a good adaptability.

"Xia Yunran, you really have the guts." Song Rinru looked at her with a half-smile, "It's okay to offend me once, today you offended a dozen people."

"I just hope I hugged the right thigh." Xia Yunran didn't know how many people in the Three Princes' Party would remember her when she said this today. Even if she didn't say anything outrageously offensive, she was helping The prince spoke.

"Huh? Hugging the thigh?" Song Rinru suddenly grabbed the word vigilantly, lowered his eyes, and thought about whether Xia Yunran had hugged his thigh when he was rolling on the grass before, but he couldn't think about it anyway. I can't get up, I just feel that her exposed skin at that time is cold and delicate, and it feels very good.

Looking up, she saw that she was talking to Song Yuerong with her head turned sideways. All he was left with was a profile face. It was the first time that she discovered that her profile face was actually pretty. Her eyes and tails were charming to the extreme between frowns and smiles. Her fair neck, Although the clothes covered her collarbone at this time, he could clearly remember the delicate shape of her collarbone.

Suddenly came back to his senses, what was he thinking just now?He must have drunk too much tonight, Song Rinru put down his glass, stopped looking at the figure beside him, and started chatting with the person on the other side.

"... Don't be afraid, the third brother is not a small-bellied person, he doesn't eat people. I just asked you to help the elder brother because I like the elder brother more." Song Yuerong was comforting Xia Yunran carelessly.

Song Mutian doesn't eat people, but the things he raises do. Xia Yunran thought depressedly, venting his anger on a plate of braised pig's trotters, muttering: "Xiao Qi, are you free tomorrow night?" , treat me to dinner."

It is a virtue to repay favors, not to mention treats to dinner, she wants to pay for Xuanchen.

"Okay, I've chosen a good place, and I'll ask someone to deliver the post tomorrow." Song Yuerong nodded.

The two were talking, but Song Mutian's eyes drifted over from time to time. That Xia Yunran really made him feel familiar. Before at Baihua Pavilion, he felt that her face was familiar, but now, he felt that the way she spoke The voice is also very familiar.

As if I heard it just now, Song Mutian stared at that direction thoughtfully, but Xia Yunran suddenly looked up. She didn't look at herself, but looked further away, but those bright big eyes His eyes suddenly made him think of something.

Just half an hour ago, in his bedroom, the only eyes of the girl wrapped in sheets seemed to be this kind of light, and the deliberately lowered voice seemed to overlap with her, as well as her figure...

If it was really her, then... she must be killed as soon as possible.
