The morning sun had just risen and a myriad of rays of light filled the corners of Peace City. Bai Yunfan had risen early and was being served by a group of maids and attendants in preparation for the morning assembly.

A few days ago, there was a huge harvest of rice in Fengcheng. Even the granaries of the generation of Pingcheng and Wuhu were filled to the brim. When the news was reported, the imperial edict had already arrived in the hands of the parents in Fengcheng.

"Reporting to the Emperor, this year's harvest was plentiful. The people of Wuhu lived and worked happily, and the scholars praised you."

Since the founding of the Chen Dynasty, it has been important to suppress martial arts. Only until the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty did this situation change. Since Bai Yunfan ascended to the throne, civil and military officials paid close attention to him. He grabbed both of his hands and even set up a group of institutions such as the Shadow Guard and the Prefect's Office, making the Great Zhou Dynasty a stable and stable place for him.

"Li Xiang is too kind. The good harvest is the fruit of the common people's hard work. We are only doing what we should do!"

Duke Wen took a step forward and said in a clear voice, "This humble subject has a starter!"

"What do you have to say, Wen Aiqing?"

"This year's harvest of rice in Fengcheng is indeed very good to celebrate. However, since the second city of Yuzhou is afflicted with water, I believe that the dam should be built in order to prevent the flood of rice from the second city of Yuzhou!"

"I'm afraid that the Imperial Duke is old. The two cities of Yuzhou are just suffering from a small flood. The terrain of Yuzhou is rather low, so it's normal for there to be a flood!"

Bai Yunfan looked coldly at Li Xiang. With a cold snort, he said, "Yuzhou is my Great Zhou, how can I not care? If it weren't for Duke Wen of Wen Guang informing me today, I wouldn't have known that Yuzhou was in danger. Li Xiang's heart is truly big!"

"This humble subject believes that Duke Wen Guoguo's words are reasonable. The city of Fengcheng has a plentiful harvest of rice, but the people of Yuzhou's two cities are in deep waters and in deep abyss." Zhang Zhang's voice paused, "I ask for Your Majesty to deal with this matter quickly!"

"Which beloved official has a plan to rescue the people of Yuzhou?"

"I thought we could transport the rice from Feng City to Yuzhou City via water. Firstly, there are many boats from Feng City and the transportation of food and water is very smooth. Secondly, water is the easiest way to save time and effort."

Zhang Zhang Zhang was inwardly shocked, as the Wen Family's Young Master's plan was exactly the same as his own. This was both a strategy and a responsibility, and this was something that could be created!

Bai Yunfan was even more happy here. The Wen family was indeed much stronger than the other aristocratic families. At least they had some of the sincerity of the common folk.

"What do you think of the other loved ones?"

How could the other ministers have any objections? All of them were as shrewd as monkeys. Wasn't the reason why their father asked such a question was to draw out the piece of jade called Wen Boyun?

"Reporting to your majesty, this subject believes that we should send someone to supervise this matter, in case anyone below misses the provisions of rescue!"

"Would Wynand be willing to supervise this matter?"

Wen Boying's face lit up. "Your servant is willing to go to Fengcheng and personally supervise this matter. I will not disappoint the people of the Emperor!"

After the morning assembly, Bai Yunfan called Zhang Zhang and asked, "How is your relationship with Wen Boying?"

Zhang Ye was stunned and said, "Just average..."

Bai Yunfan spread out his legs and said, "Let's go and take a look at the Duke's estate!"

The Duke of Guo's residence took up a large amount of space, but its courtyard and furnishings were simple and unadorned, similar to that of a second or third rank official's residence.

As Bai Yunfan and Zhang Zhang walked side by side, the expression on their faces was unbelievably soft.

The light in Bai Yunfan's eyes dimmed, and he unconsciously took two steps towards the courtyard. He asked hoarsely, "That is …"

Wen Boying replied in a low voice, "Yes, it is my cousin's house. Grandmother likes her very much. She doesn't even allow a single flower or a tree in the small courtyard to be touched!"

Today, Bai Yunfan and Zhang Zhang had gone on a public tour of the Wen Guo Mansion. What was different was that Bai Yunfan had used a disguise technique to change his face and had even lowered his voice so that the Wen Guang family wouldn't recognize him.

"It seems that Young Master Wen's cousin really does enjoy the love of the madame!"

"Brother Li might not know, but my cousin can be said to be proficient in all kinds of calligraphy. In the past, when my grandmother was angry, my cousin could easily coax her into smiling."

Bai Yunfan and the other two were talking about the excitement of the time when the Duke of Wen Guoguo had arrived. Wen Boying was busy introducing them.

"Father, this is the cousin of Master Zhang. He has been doing business in An City for the past few days. "Brother, this is my father, the Duke of Wen Guang."

"This commoner pays his respects to the king. I hope that the duke will forgive us for our intrusion. "

Duke Wen Guoguo waved his hand. "Since we are brothers of Great Master Zhang, why bother? However, this old man is a bit puzzled. What business does Your Majesty have with Zhang Dazhi's residence today? "

Zhang Zhang Zhang Zhang clasped his hands together and greeted, "I, Zhang, have only come today to pay a visit to Brother Bo Ying. Brother Bo Ying's performance today really surprised me."

The wrinkles on Wen Guogong's face scrunched together. "You are too kind, my son is just speaking bluntly. He is not as wise as you."

"Duke Wen is too modest. Young Noble Wen's words today have really broadened my horizons. He will definitely become a pillar of the kingdom in the future!"

Zhang Zhang Zhang stood off to the side, overjoyed. It seems like the Duke of Wen Guang has really aged. Your niece and son-in-law are trying to assure you of your son's future!

A small kitchen in the palace of the Heron:

"Mother, mother, what are you doing?"

She gently moved her nose. "It smells so good. Mother, what are you doing?"

The golden hairpin on Chen Shu's head shook as she smiled sweetly, "I'm not telling you, you greedy little cat!"

Wen Wen pouted. "Hmph!" Mother is bad, mother doesn't love warmth anymore, Wen Wen is going to tell royal father. "

"Mother did it with a buddhist hand …"

The moon hung like a bow in the sky, and a wisp of cloud quietly obscured some of it. The two people in the room were overjoyed and did not notice Consort De who was standing outside the door.

Consort De's aura suddenly became sharp and a smile appeared on her seductive face. What a great saying, 'mother!'

"Wen Wen, who's your mother?"

Warm hands pointed at Chen Shu. A proud smile appeared on her pretty face. "She's my mother. You're Consort De. You're not my mother!"

Consort De felt a bit embarrassed, and was extremely unhappy in her heart.

"How dare you, noble and bold, why aren't you kneeling down?"

Ru Yi was used to being tyrannical in the Wen Mansion, so she naturally couldn't bear watching her young mistress be bullied. "May I ask, esteemed imperial concubine, did my noble family make any mistakes?"

"Where did this lowly slave come from?" There were actually no rules at all! "Consort De's smile was even more frightening," Little Xi, go teach that slut and what are the imperial harem rules. Let her know who's the master! "

The little wedding was about to make a move when Chen Shu stopped her. "Esteemed Concubine, you're in charge of the sixth palace now. Why must you go against a palace maid?"

Consort De sneered, "It's precisely because I'm the one who's managing the six palaces for the emperor, and even more so, I should properly manage the atmosphere of the harem!"

Consort De raised her voice and reprimanded, "Little Xi, why aren't you taking action yet? Do you want me to do it myself? "

Although the little bride was a eunuch, her hand strength was not something the harem girl could handle. After a few slaps, her face became as swollen as a steamed bun.

"Miss, save me!" Ru Yi cried as she hid behind Chen Shu.

Chen Shu couldn't bear to watch any longer and protected Ru Yi. For a moment, Xi Zi didn't dare to make a move and could only turn her head to look at Consort De's expression …

Consort De nodded and gave a look to Little Happy. Little Happy nodded and immediately made a move …

The moment Bai Yunfan walked in and saw such a scene, his anger overflowed into the heavens. Hugging the frightened Wen Wen, he shouted in a stern voice:

"Consort De, what are you doing?"
