Chapter 193 Why don’t you speak anymore?
Ji Chenxing returned to the main hall.

She came back just in time. As soon as she sat down, the song and dance show was over.

Mogu's eyes were still on the dancers who were leaving the stage. He was infatuated and seemed to be really attracted by the dancers' performance.

But Ji Chenxing knew that this was not true.

When Ji Chenxing came to ancient times, the system told him that he came mainly to find out the news about Daliang.

If Daliang was suitable for attack, they would probably send troops immediately after he returned.

To be honest, the current situation in Daliang is not suitable for war.

After so many years of floods and droughts, Daliang’s treasury has been emptied and the people are struggling to survive. How can they have the energy to fight?
However, Daliang has existed for hundreds of years, and the Zhou Kingdom did not know what Daliang's background was, so it sent Mogu to find out.

At this time, you might as well sing a song called "Empty City Strategy".

Even if you don't have anything, you have to pretend to be wealthy so as to scare off the enemy.

Sure enough, after the dancer completely left the stage, Mogu began to ask questions.

"As expected of a dancer from Daliang, she is truly extraordinary! Compared to Daliang, our dancers from Da Zhou are truly far inferior."

Mo Gu first praised Jun Heng for a lot of things, and then began to ask Jun Heng questions.

"I just heard that Daliang has been hit by frequent floods recently. I wonder if Your Majesty has any unique method to combat the floods while listening to music and watching dances at this time?"

Jun Heng's eyes became a little strange, and when he looked at Mo Gu, he was more or less wary.

Mo Gu waved his hands repeatedly, "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand, some areas in our Zhou Kingdom have also shown signs of flooding recently.

"I know that Zhou is not as rich as Daliang, so I want to ask Daliang for some methods to fight the flood so that the victims can save their lives."

There are actually only a few ways to combat floods.

Open the warehouses and release grain. If conditions permit, you can also repair canals and the like.

Of course Mogu knew all this.

But the reason why he asked this question at this time was not because he wanted to know Daliang’s flood control strategy, but he wanted to see from the side what Daliang’s attitude was towards floods and whether the national treasury had been exhausted by the floods in recent years.

In other words, if Jun Heng didn't care about his people at all, then people's hearts would be loose and the country of Daliang would be easy to conquer.

Jun Heng smiled generously, "So that's what you're asking."

He glanced at the crowd, as if he didn't want to answer Mogu's question and wanted to find someone to answer it for him.

When he finally saw Ji Chenxing, Jun Heng's eyes lit up.

"Emissary Zhou, I also want to answer your question very much, but I always like to play the qin and serve, and educate without being taught, so I have given this matter to Princess Xihe to do."

Everyone's eyes fell on Ji Chenxing at this moment.

Ji Chenxing was speechless for a second. She had thought of a way to answer Mogu, but she didn't expect Jun Heng to attract firepower to herself so directly!

Mo Gu was also stunned. Jun Heng was really at ease. Things like flood control might not be done well even if those who had been officials for their whole lives were asked to do it.

Jun Heng actually gave this task to a little girl.

It would be strange if this water could cure the disease!

But Mogu was also very curious. He wanted to see what tricks Ji Chenxing could come up with to control the water.

Being named by Jun Heng, Ji Chenxing was not panicked at all, and was fully confident. After all, what Jun Heng said was right, Daliang's water control has always been dominated by her method.

"Lord Mo, are you asking me what strategies Daliang has for flood control? Of course we do have some."

After Ji Chenxing finished speaking, he slowly reached into his sleeve and took out a map from the space.

If Mogu had seen Doraemon, he would definitely ask why Ji Chenxing could take out so many things from his sleeves.

The map that Ji Chenxing took out was a map of Daliang that she had drawn a long time ago when she had just started learning geography. It was based on the modern regions.

Although at first glance this map looks like ancient Daliang, there are many differences and it cannot be used as a real map.

The skin of the defeated drum. It is very appropriate to show it to Mogu. Ji Chenxing does not have to worry about his map exposing the true information of Daliang.

The fake map not only had the names of various places in Daliang written on it, but also a large river running through the north and south.

Mo Gu was also a little shocked. No, no, could it be that this Ji Chenxing really has some abilities?

She was so bold to take out the map of Daliang. Wasn't she afraid that someone would write it down and use it to attack Daliang?
Mo Gu was becoming more and more confused about Ji Chenxing.

But Ji Chenxing didn't care about his thoughts at all.

Ji Chenxing pointed to the big river that ran through the north and south in the middle of the map and said, "Master Mo, look, do you recognize this river?"

Mogu thought about it for a long time in his mind, but he couldn't extract any information related to this river.

"I don't know him." Mo Gu told the truth.

As a diplomat, Mogu felt a little ashamed for showing weakness in front of another country.

"You're right not to know it. This is a river that we dug in Daliang to fight floods and droughts."

Ji Chenxing said confidently.

Mogu was also surprised. He knew that Daliang was suffering from floods in the south and drought in the north. He had joked with others that if Daliang could move the extra water in the south to the north, it would not only solve the floods in the south, but also the drought in the north.

But everyone knows that with so much water and such a large span, it is simply a fantasy to complete it.

But when Ji Chenxing took out this map, Mogu suddenly saw its authenticity.

Ji Chenxing, this map...she is really brave to draw it.

I'm afraid he just picked up a random map to fool Jun Heng?
"But, isn't this picture really just paper talk?" Mogu asked.

Ji Chenxing put away the map and asked, "Master Mo, what do you mean by that?"

Mo Gu cleared his throat and said, "Although I have never visited Daliang, I have read a lot of local chronicles in my early years. One of them mentioned that the terrain of Daliang is low in the south and high in the north.

"Princess, please look, the river on your map does run from south to north, but how can water flow from low places to high places?"

After Mo Gu finished his speech, many ministers present showed surprised expressions.

They didn't know much about geography and had never thought about this question.

The ministers' expressions changed, which was a very good signal for Mogu.

This means that Ji Chenxing’s map was most likely not shown to these ministers, or perhaps these ministers did not understand water conservancy at all.

For Mogu, this is the best thing.

Mo Gu's confidence increased a lot, and the corners of his mouth raised, and he asked Ji Chenxing:
"What's wrong, princess? Why don't you speak?"
