The East District of Beijing is a section of the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou.

The Grand Canal, which was built in the Spring and Autumn Period, was greatly expanded and penetrated into Luoyang during the Sui Dynasty, forming a famous ancient river channel in history.

Compared with its location in the north, Jian'an, located in Zhongzhou, is also located on the route of the Grand Canal, but it is not too close to the north to open the gateway to the northeast, greatly increasing the safety of the capital.

When the founding of the country, the world was in chaos and the 24 countries were all over the world. Emperor Jianshi relied on the convenience of the Grand Canal of the Beijing-Hangzhou River to gather wealth from south to north through waterways in his early years. In addition, sufficient water resources also allowed the rice on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to harvest bumper every year, accumulated strong economic strength, and laid the foundation for the future unification of the world.

After destroying the four countries, some ministers once suggested that the emperor move the capital to Jinling, and use the prosperous Jiangnan as the basis to build a more prosperous capital, but the emperor refused.

There is only one reason, because even Emperor Wen of Dajian had never said he wanted to move the capital. How could his descendants have the confidence to move the capital at will?

Although this reason is a bit far-fetched, the ministers can also estimate that the emperor still does not want to go to Jiangnan, especially the Taibai Mansion in Suzhou, which has deep resentment for the emperor.

Although it was later confirmed that he did leave, and it was rumored that he was drowned in the Yindu Ocean, with He Boli's death, no one dared to mention this matter again.

In fact, few people know about this matter whether the emperor or the queen is unwilling.

On the Grand Canal, three boats lined up toward the south.

Two cargo ships and one sailing ship.

On the boat, a man wearing a black hat was standing on the bow of the boat and looking at the curling smoke on the river bank in the quiet night wind.

It was already night. Although the safety of the canal is guaranteed, the countercurrents and shallows on the river sections occasionally appear. Moreover, the rainy season has long passed. In recent years, the silt of the Yellow River water has also made the depth of the canal much worse than before. Even this year, several heavy cargo ships transporting Taihu stones have been stranded, so the canal has repeatedly written to the court to request the emperor to silt the river.

It’s a pity that every time I write a book, it’s a sank to the sea.

Liu He knew a little about this. It was not that the emperor was unwilling to do things, but he really... had no money!

As someone around the Empress of the Great Inner, he naturally knew the reason.

The river dredging incident was in charge of the early years of the procession of the river dredging Chen An, but Xu Jili was investigated this year, and Chen An was also implicated. Both of them committed suicide due to crimes. Since then, the Ministry of Works has changed people. However, according to the price they reported for dredging in the early years was 8 million taels, which is a considerable amount. In recent years, due to the burden of the border war, the finance department has already been sluggish, so the emperor had to cut the expenses in the harem. Some even mentioned that the Queen's blood coral was sold out.

But the Empress was unhappy, so the Emperor did not mention it again, so the matter of dredging the river was abandoned.

"master,"

Behind him, the lady with a slightly bulging belly came to Liu He with a little sadness and frowned: "It's windy outside, so let's go in!"

Looking at the moonlight in the sky, Liu He shook his head.

The lady frowned and said, "Master, I am so anxious to leave the capital, and I am still rushing to the night. Are you afraid that His Highness the Crown Prince will catch up?"

Liu He shook his head again.

The lady couldn't help but sigh: "Looking at your distracted mind, I'm also...ah..."

Looking at her sad appearance, Liu He felt distressed and gently stroked her shoulder to relieve her anxiety.

"You don't understand. People like me, on the outside, are rich and rich, but in the eyes of others, they are just an ant!"

Liu He sighed slightly: "I know too many secrets for them. Not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not spare me, but even that person... will not let me go! Now, if you have this opportunity to escape from the golden cicada, you can be freed by borrowing the east wind of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, that is a blessing."

"Ah? The master said..."

"Yes, yesterday, Xiao Anzi said that she said that she said, "How can eunuchs give birth to babies!"

"Ah? Then, master...so you pretended to die and lie to her!"

Nodded slightly, when he mentioned this, Liu He's expression was both sad and sarcastic. Those expressions appeared alternately on his twisted face, and it had not changed for a long time, but in the end, he sighed helplessly and said with a slight sadness: "I have been with her for twenty years! I know her so much! As long as I'm useless to her, she will kill me at any time!"

"Master..." The lady couldn't help but feel sad. At this moment, she understood why the master wanted to sail at night and changed the flags on the boat to her surname "Liang".

It's because of this.

Looking at the rumbling water of the canal, Liu He looked solemn and continued, "The major event has been defeated, and the Xu family is afraid that there will be no chance to turn over. His Royal Highness is a decisive person who can deceive him for a while, but he cannot deceive him for a lifetime. The emperor took her to Mount Li to give her a chance to end. However, how could she be willing to do so! After so many years of preparations, how could she give up easily!"

"In the past, Li Tong was still at a disadvantage in the fight between the Xu and Li families, but now, Zhao and Xu families! What else can I fight for? Look at the Wang family, what else does the Wang family have after Julu Hou left? They didn't obediently retreat to Huzhou? Relying on Wang Ru'an, she was still quite polite! But she never thought about who could be able to have the Xu family today?"

Liu He sighed and said sadly: "The appearance of the prince is unusual. There is no conclusion about the matter back then, and the emperor never mentioned it. But the prince's affairs were taken back so hasty, and they didn't even test it... The emperor has known this matter for a long time! Whoever plots for whom can't say..."

"Is that so? Then tell me, who is better at making a plan?"

Suddenly, a sharp sound as thin as paper came into his ears. Liu He was shocked and turned to look over!

When I saw this, my face suddenly changed drastically!

What caught my eye was that his wife was held hostage by a tall man covering her mouth. The man forced her head to break up, revealing her snow-like neck and throat!

The man's dagger slashed heavily on her neck, and a large amount of blood spurted out from the snow-white neck.

Liu He was shocked, and he stared at his wife's fearful eyes widened!

"No!"

I saw that the man was disdainful and coldly threw the woman who had broken her throat away like garbage!

He showed his appearance, a man in eunuch uniform, and he laughed like a ghost in his voice that was neither male nor female.

Hi, giggle...

"Liu He, for so many years in the palace, don't you know how to serve your master?"

"Eunuch Wang..."

“Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The father-in-law smiled like a crowing rooster. Looking at Liu He, he couldn't help but smile, and there was a look of pity.

"Xiao Yazi! Why did our family fall in love with you at the beginning? It was because you were smart enough! After five years with our family, you learned the rules. After twenty years with the Queen Mother, you still learned the rules. But in the end, why are you so stupid? You don't even understand the rules?"

Liu He stared at Eunuch Wang with wide eyes.

Eunuch Wang seemed to be pitying him and lamented: "It doesn't matter how much treasure you have left with, but how can the eunuch have a baby?"

Puchi-

Liu He stared at Eunuch Wang with wide eyes.

He stood there and didn't move, but when he looked at him in his eyes, he was standing sideways!

In an instant, he realized something and opened his mouth wide...

Then, I saw my body lying in front of me.
