"Over time, and this summer, heavy rains hit. The water carried sediment and flowed down the river bed, and this flood came."
"In my opinion, the emperor might as well order these exposed areas to be planted with grass or trees."
"With grass and trees, they can absorb the earth's air and stabilize the muddy water. With less muddy water, the river will be much clearer."
"Of course, dredging the river and raising the dams are also essential. These are the affairs of the river governor."
After Bai Yuyue said this, Cang Xilin's eyes widened in surprise.
He never thought that water control could start with planting trees.
But when I think about it carefully, I realize that although what she said is simple, it still makes sense.
Looking at Bai Yuyue again, I admired her quick wit.
The breadth of vision and the breadth of thinking are truly breathtaking!
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Cang Xilin clapped her hands and laughed.
"Well said! Let's do it!"
After he finished speaking, he bent down at his desk and picked up his pen. As soon as Zhu Zhu finished writing, he pressed the seal, put the memorial aside, and handed it to Liu Quan very happily:
"Go and send this memorial to the Minister of Industry and the Minister of Household Affairs, and ask them to do as it says!"
Liu Quan took the memorial, bowed and said, "Yes."
Liu Quan raised his head and glanced at Bai Yuyue again.
She still had a calm expression, not claiming credit or being proud.
The corners of his wrinkled eyes slowly turned a little happy.
He quickly went out, found a young eunuch, handed him the book, and asked him to go to the Liubu court.
Liu Quan came back again and saw Cang Xilin sitting on the dragon chair, continuing to review the memorial, and occasionally exchanging one or two sentences with Bai Yuyue.
Bai Yuyue answered all questions and gave very pertinent suggestions.
If there is something she doesn't know or cannot judge, she will let her know in time.
Moreover, Bai Yu Yueque was very sincere. Every time he answered Cang Xilin's questions, he would add:
"This is just my humble opinion and cannot be put on the stage. The emperor's decision must not be based on my humble opinion."
She understands very well.
Although the Queen Mother asked her to assist the Emperor, assistance was not a substitute.
