The days-long heavy rains in Yangzhou have caused concerns among many knowledgeable people and ordinary people.

There will be no weather forecast in this era. Faced with heavy rains, there is a sense of apocalypse and a sense of horror from God.

If the rain was as high as the previous year, even if it was only half of that year, with this repaired water conservancy project, it would probably not be able to resist the flood, and the flooding of the seven palaces would happen again.

It is said that Jiangnan is prosperous, but in fact it is also based on the year of a bumper harvest. Now the imperial court's finances are in short supply, the emperor is obsessed with Xiuxuan, and the water conservancy facilities in Jiangnan are becoming increasingly abandoned.

Once Jiangnan encounters another flood, countless families will inevitably go bankrupt, or sell the remaining land to the gentry to survive, or leave their hometown to find a way out. Their situation is actually not much better than that of the people in other regions.

But I don’t know if it was God’s mercy or the begging of hundreds of thousands of people that influenced God. On the fourth day, Yangzhou City finally ushered in a sunny and beautiful sky.

As if everything was gone, Yangzhou City was like a colorful picture scroll. The couple of beautiful women and talented men appeared in the painting boats on the Little Qinhuai River.

Of course, these joys have nothing to do with ordinary people.

They work hard every day to "work at sunrise and rest at sunset", hoping that there will be no flooding in the next May, otherwise this year's hard work will not be lost, but their subsequent livelihoods will become problems.

Ma Chuyuan, the magistrate of Jiangdu, knew the difficulties of ordinary people. On the second day of the banquet, he knocked on the door and asked for the donation of silver. Then he personally inspected and formulated a plan to build the West Lake, and finally recruited ordinary people to carry out construction.

"You can settle in Jiangdu County!"

"Please arrange three meals a day to ensure fish and meat!"

"Thinking about you, you still have a small family, and you still have a subsidy of ten cents a day!"

...

When Magistrate Ma gave the people living around Shouxi Lake a promise of homeland and wages, the young and strong people there signed up one after another, and seemed to be very active in this major project.

In fact, many people know that once the West Lake is developed, they will also benefit from it.

Ma Chuyuan was not a greedy person at all. In addition, Lin Qingran was staring at Yangzhou, so he had no greed at all, so he focused all his energy on these specific matters.

When he watched the lives of the people here improve, he smiled from the heart and praised him behind his back, he was more satisfied than 50,000 taels.

If he had previously hoped to promote this matter through hard work in exchange for Lin Yanran's promotion, he had no idea at this time and only hoped to do this practical thing that would benefit the people of Jiangdu County.

After many discussions, the plan to develop a slimming West Lake was released.

First, a blue brick road connecting the Shouxi Lake was built from the north gate of Yangzhou City. Then, an embankment was built around Shouxi Lake, and then two new bridges were built in two narrow areas. Finally, the silt in the lake was cleared.

These projects are not small projects, but with 53,700 taels of funds and the active participation of local people, I believe that they can be completed smoothly.

Once the West Lake is developed in this way, Yangzhou City will have an additional scenic spot, which will surely become the destination of countless literati and poets of the Ming Dynasty.

After Lin Qingran handed over the matter to Ma Caiyuan, he did not interfere in this matter anymore, and he didn't even take a look at it. In addition to his belief that Ma Caiyuan, it was because he had a more important thing to deal with.

"Lin Fu, go and bring Zhang Wujin here!"

When the sky in Yangzhou City had just cleared, Lin Xuran was processing some official documents in the office of the Salt Inspection Office, but suddenly ordered Lin Fu indifferently.

"yes!"

Lin Fu's eyes lit up slightly. Even after he left with a regular bow, he led a few people directly to the death row of Yangzhou Prefecture to bring the prisoner Ye Wujin over.

For this case, Lin Qingran was under certain public pressure. If he could not find out the case, he would probably be stained and would become an obstacle for him to join the cabinet and become a minister in the future.

But he has never been a rash person and has long been suspicious of the essence of this case. It is just to figure out some things, so it has been delayed until today.

From the day Lin Xuran entered Yangzhou City, his every move was being watched.

Lin Fu went to the Yangzhou Prefecture Prison to interrogate Zhang Wujin, but naturally he could not escape the ears and ears of those who were interested. The news was quickly fed back and soon spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yangzhou City.

"This imperial envoy really wants to use Chen Xiaoxiao's case to rectify the prefect He!"

"I don't think there are indeed some strange things in this case, let's wait and see!"

"Yes, I heard that Chen Xiaoxiao and Zhang Wuji had already been in love with each other. Those gold, silver and jewelry are essentially for redeeming themselves!"

"This is a major case involving human life. If the imperial envoy cannot move, then who will make a name for the wronged person in the future?"

...

As news that Lin Junran suddenly interrogated Zhang Wujin, it immediately became the hottest topic of discussion in some public places such as teahouses and restaurants in Yangzhou City, and many scholars participated.

But it was different from the first time, but this time they all blamed Yu Lin Qingran. Instead, many scholars chose to support Yu Lin Qingran, believing that there was something wrong with this case.

As Lin Qingran raised more than 50,000 taels of funds for the West Lake, he won the favor of many Yangzhou scholars, so he also made Yangzhou scholars look at this matter more rationally.

Although there are still He Dongxu and others guiding public opinion behind it, the public opinion in Yangzhou City no longer blames Yu Lin Qingran on one side. Instead, there are more and more controversies, and some scholars even fought hard for this.

After learning about these situations, He Dongxu and others once suspected that Cao Meng had helped Lin Qingran. However, after their careful investigation, they found that although the Cao family's children did favor Lin Qingran, they did not seem to be trying hard behind their backs, and everything seemed to be

It was the spontaneous action of the scholars in Yangzhou.

At this time, they finally knew why Lin Xuran had the name of "Liang Suanzi" and why he suddenly proposed to develop the West Lake. It turned out that he won the support of Yangzhou scholars through this recruitment move, and thus allowed him to successfully replace Zhang.

Endless overturning of the case.

"Take it seriously...a good strategy!"
