The gold and white jade were carefully collected in boxes. When the priest tried to report how much gold it was, Taipu Guanji waved his hand and let him go. With the handwriting of Ling Yin Chunshenjun, the gold sent was not ten thousand and eight thousand. Besides, the gold was more than the position, and the amount of gold was more than the position, and the amount of the people gave was collected as much as they gave.

In the last battle between the prince, there was no victory or defeat. Wang Zijing just went to Lantai to study. Only the king's mind seemed to have changed. He wanted to establish a prince, but now, he seemed to want to establish a prince. Can it really change like this? Although the court's lords and nobles are arrogant, in fact, a few of them have real power and a few of them have fiefs? They are just a group of lustful people without power or no towns. For more than 20 years, the real power of the Chu State has not lies in the king but in the king of Yin Chunshenjun. Chunshenjun wants to establish a prince, who can stop him?

Guan Ji recalled the visits of two groups of people during this period, especially when Zimo wanted to support Wang Zijing by just opening his mouth, and laughed again. Do those lords and ministers still lived hundreds of years ago? With the words "The State of Chu is the most important thing" that he wanted to stand on their side, rich and powerful, poor and humble but few friends, and civilians all understand, why don't these people understand?

"Ziyi, I heard that you have seen Prince Jing in Lantai?" When he heard his younger brother return home, Guan Jizhao asked with a smile.

"I heard that my brother received a lot of money from Lingyin?" The lacquered wooden box containing gold and jade was cleaned up completely, and Ke Guanyi still heard about this.

"That's right." Guan Ji nodded, "Chunshen Jun has been the ruling prime minister for twenty years. The Chu State only knew that there was a ruling prime minister but not a ruling king. At the beginning, I didn't stand on the side of Prince Han and waited for the price. Now the king wants to establish Prince Jing, but the eldest son dare not establish him. The life span of the king is not in spring, that is, in autumn. After the king, Chunshen Jun will definitely establish Prince Han..."

"Wang Shou is not in spring, and then in autumn?" Guan Yi's eyes widened. Thinking of the day when the delivery ceremony was presided over by Ling Yin, he said anxiously: "Is the king sick?"

"That's right." Guan Ji stroked his beard and said peacefully: "It's too late for the king to establish Prince Jing."

"What if Prince Jing is the Holy King?" After that conversation, Xiong Jing went to the library again in the next few days. These times, they were no longer military geography, nor shipbuilding and sailing, but were compiled by the Shanhai Jing. After getting familiar with it, the idea of ​​helping Prince Jing become the king became stronger and stronger in Guan Yi's heart. When he came back, he wanted to discuss this matter with his brother, but he did not expect that his brother had already received a lot of money from Chunshenjun.

"If he was born a holy king, God would bless him." Guan Ji didn't care. "Zi Yi, you want to help Prince Jing be the king?"

"It's just that." Guan Yi told him bluntly. "Prince Jing was born to know that he was knowledgeable and intelligent and mature. Those doctors in the West should not rely on the title of kings. If we can help him become kings, the position of commander can be obtained."

"Wrong. Since he is smart, how can he give others authority?" Guan Ji laughed at his younger brother, feeling that his intelligence was wronged.

"No. Prince Jing's ambition in this life is not in the court, nor in the world." Guan Yi's answer made Guan Ji laugh even more. He had to say again: "Prince Jing said that the world is only a corner of the east side of Zhongzhou, India to the south of Zhongzhou, Persia to the west of Zhongzhou, and five continents including East, South, West, Waste and Han outside Zhongzhou. The land is not square but round. If you go east, you can come back from the west in a few years. He is willing to ride the wind and waves, sail on the sea, observe the wonders of mountains and seas, and overcome the greatness of the world..."

"The earth is not square but round?" Guan Ji looked indifferent, but these words seemed to bite people, and he jumped up in pain.

"It's. Prince Jing..." Guan Yi was about to explain in detail, but was interrupted by his brother. Guan Ji said: "The theory of earth round has existed in ancient times. But how do you know about Prince Jing?"

Seeing that his brother was so surprised, Guan Yi smiled: "I knew it by birth."

"Born to know it?" Guan Ji sat down, and he didn't take Zimo's words seriously. "If the earth is round, what should Donghuang Taiyi do?"

Guan Ji was Taibu and Guan Yi was Bu Yin. His family served as Bu Yin in Chu for hundreds of years. Guan She father, who was known as the treasure of Chu, was his ancestor. As Bu Yin, the Guan family generally did not intervene in the power struggle of Chu, and mostly followed the flow. The secular power is such that, but the divine power cannot be argued. Anyone who dares to implicate the divine power and blaspheme the divine spirit will give him a fatal blow. Donghuang Taiyi is the highest god. Guan Ji’s question is: If the earth is round, what should the sun do?

"The Emperor of Dong came out of Tanggu and lived in Yuyuan. If the land was round, it would be just right for the Emperor of Donggu to return to Tanggu. If the land was square, how would the Emperor of Donggu return to Tanggu?" Guanyi asked back. This question was considered when he heard Xiong Jing say that the earth was round. After considering it, he felt that the earth must be round, otherwise why would the sun come out from the east every day, and it would fall to the west every day.

"Good." Guan Ji breathed a sigh of relief. The theory of earth round did not destroy the power of gods, but instead made up for a loophole in the power of gods.

"Is it okay to help Prince Jing be the eldest son, brother, you be the imperial court?" Guan Yi continued to talk about his thoughts.

"No." Guan Ji opposed it without thinking, "The power of Chu is in the imperial court, and the power of the imperial court is in the imperial court. The imperial court has been in power for hundreds of years. Now the imperial court is willing to make Prince Jing the eldest son, so the imperial court naturally wants to help Prince Han."

"What if the king set up Prince Jing?" Guan Yi didn't give up and asked the last question.

"There must be a regicide." Guan Ji's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and the inside was covered with blood.

After climbing to the top of the mountain, Xiong Jing was so tired that he could not get up. The personal guard Yu wanted to help him rest under the tree, but was stopped by him. The blue sky, white clouds, green grass and yellow flowers, birds singing in the mountain stream, and the sun shining on the earth, he lay lazily in the arms of spring, and there was nothing more comfortable than this. Unfortunately, this is the tomb of Jingyang, the general who hanged himself. Thinking of himself lying in front of someone else's grave, Xiong Jing slowly struggled to stand up.

"Your Highness..." He couldn't stand it. Even if there was no 'Your Highness' in this era, Xiong Jing also asked his servants around him to call him Your Highness. However, he had to have a palace.

"...This is the tomb of General Jingyang." Ge was old and strangely, he didn't breathe at all when he went up the mountain. He pointed to the tomb platform not far away and said to Xiong Jing. The tomb platform was covered with green grass and yellow flowers, not one, but two, one big and one small, arranged side by side. There were even smaller seals behind it, which should be a burial pit. "The general's wife was also buried here," Ge added.

"I want to build a shipyard under the General's Mausoleum. I hope the general will take care of him. I will have a lot of wine and food for the New Year." The deceased was great. Xiong Jing bowed to the Lingtai and recited this sentence. After reading it, he turned back to the mountain and saw that the Huai River in the distance was as white as silver chains, surging. After being blocked by the mountain, the river turned a sharp bend at the foot of the mountain and headed northeast. The bend was wide and the river water was soothing. The shipyard Xiong Jing wanted to build was chosen here. This place is not only by the river, but also by the Zijin Mountain. Hydraulic machinery can be used after dam building.

"Prince... Your Highness, you can build a dike here." The craftsman who went up the mountain had already surveyed the mountain stream. Although he was not sure why Xiong Jing wanted to build a dike on the mountain, no one dared to disobey the prince's order.

"If you want to keep the water from living in autumn and winter, how many feet of water can be stored, and how high is the embankment?" Xiong Jing asked, looking at the craftsman who worshipped the whole place.

There was a silence. The ancients used to manage water and build dams to promote profits and eliminate disadvantages, irrigate farmland, use water to produce water, and drive water trucks, and never heard of it in ancient times. Even if there were masters of water control such as Zheng State, it was still in Sikong Mansion and could not be left among the people. However, the calculation of the water volume of the dam not only requires water use, but also water inflow. Now there is no hydrological data on the streams on the mountain.

"Get up." Xiong Jing was very weak - he didn't even have a helper. "Before building the dike, record the amount of streams in spring, summer, autumn and winter, especially during mountain torrents in summer; at the same time, you must measure the size, length and width of the mountain stream, and understand the texture of the rock. You are responsible for this matter."

"Wei." Shaoyan is Ge's subordinate and can make simple plans a little bit.

"It still needs..." Since he wanted to build a dam, Xiong Jing suddenly thought that cement was needed so that the dam could be strong. In order to have cement, in addition to large steel mills, there must also be limestone and coal. Limestone is very common. When he climbed up, he saw it. It was blue and gray, and it was full of blue and gray at the foot of the mountain, but where was there coal?

His Highness the Prince was suddenly stunned. A group of people looked at him and dared not speak. It took him a long time to come to his senses. "Where is the map?"

"Here." The map was delivered quickly.

"No. I want a map of Chu State." The map is just a sketch near Zijin Mountain, and Xiong Jing doesn't want this.

"Your Highness, you have not brought the map of Chu." Ge explained, and he didn't understand why Xiong Jing wanted to look at the map of Chu.

"Then let's go back and talk about it." Although it is the same land, it is unfamiliar after more than two thousand years. It is hard to figure out where it is. For example, Shouying and Xiong Jing don't know which city it is later, but only know that it should be in Anhui. Of course, some places have the same names in ancient and modern times, such as Kuaiji, Jinling, Dongting, and Gusu. But it is possible that these cities will completely overlap with later generations.

"First enclose the land according to the map, then log the wood, and then level the land; the dock needs to be built on the Huai River side and open the road; after surveying the dock, it should be built under the red tree, with geometry and depth, and customize the geometry; the embankment first records the hydrological mountain trend and will be built in the next two years." While everyone is there and stands on the top of the mountain for details, Xiong Jing began to make the overall arrangement, which is also the reason why he went to the scene in person.

"The shipyard is the dock, and all structures surround the dock. The dock is small first and then large, and there must be room for space. The largest one is thirty-five zhang, and the largest one is sixteen zhang. In the future, another dock will be built. The dock and dock will be separated by fifteen zhang and arranged side by side." Xiong Jing then introduced the specific requirements of various work. "Grouts should be the most important for logging and land preparation. The land must be high, the ditches must be deep, and the floods must be leaked; the water at the dock must be deep before the water can be buried. The trestle bridges are made of wood and then stone..."

Every time Xiong Jing recites a sentence, everyone will remember one. After Xiong Jing finished speaking, they said in unison: "I'm sure to accept the order."
