    From Yangzhou, it went northward along the Hangou River and entered the Huai River. From Sizhou, it passed through Suishui, Langdang Canal and Honggou, and then crossed Banzhu and entered the Yellow River. This waterway later became the Tongji Canal.  In the future, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal will be mainly excavated north of the Yellow River, and the south will be mainly excavated to connect the original water system. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Yang Guang to dig out thousands of miles of canal in a few months, even with all his country's strength.

    The original Tongji Canal passes through the Huanghuai Plain. Although it is winter at this time, the scenery on both sides of the strait is still vast, unique, magnificent and beautiful.

    Standing on the deck, although the wind is cold in front of me, the tide is full, and the two banks are level with the river, making it look very open. It is just right to hang the sail high when sailing with the wind.

    Yang Guang was sitting on the boat, looking at the prosperity on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and he couldn't help but become inspired by poetry.

    "The Pinghuai River is dense and dense, and the mist is falling again at dawn.

    Huaidian is not divided into colors, and the rivers and rivers share the morning glow.

    The clear clouds turn to the lonely island, and the brocade sails emerge from the long bow.

    When the tide comes, fish jump over the waves, and sand birds sing and want to fly.

    I will wait until late autumn, and I will return home worried about the passing water.  "

    Yang Zhao, Zhang Heng and others next to him all clapped their hands in praise, and Huang Mingyuan acted as if nothing had happened, praising along with everyone.

    Zhang Heng glanced at Huang Mingyuan silently. Although the two had met yesterday, but they hadn't seen each other for a day, Huang Mingyuan didn't feel as lost as yesterday. Instead, he had a calm expression on his face.

    He is very familiar with his student. The calmer Huang Mingyuan behaves, the more he cares, and the greater his explosive power.

    "Zhang Qing, what do you think will happen if a canal is built to connect Youzhou, Luoyang, and Yuhang in the future?" Yang Guang asked enthusiastically.

    Zhang Heng was stunned, and his first reaction was that Yang Guang was crazy.  From Youzhou to Luoyang and then to Wuyue, the total length is more than 5,000 miles.  This is not like building a wall on the plains like building the Great Wall, but digging trenches on the plains.  When the north is high and the south is low, Yang Guang will not be afraid of the river water flowing back.

    ¡°Besides, how much national power would it take to complete such a project?  Back then, the Qin Dynasty built the Zhengguo Canal, which was only 300 miles away. It took ten years and the country's national power was almost exhausted.  If such a canal is really built, it will take less than thirty to fifty years to even think about it.

    Zhang Heng thought for a long time before replying: "Your Majesty's idea is far-sighted. If this canal can really be built, it will benefit the people just like Zheng Guo Canal. However, if this canal is opened, the amount of work is huge, and it may not be completed for another thirty to fifty years."  ah."

    Yang Guangdao waved his hand and said with a smile: "Zhang Qing has worried too much. Three years alone is enough. I have billions of people in the Sui Dynasty, and one person can dig this canal with just one lift of soil."

    Zhang Heng was frightened when he heard this. Could this still make everyone in the world dig canals?

    Seeing the surprised looks of Zhang Heng, Yang Zhao and others, Yang Guang felt proud, but you still couldn't keep up with the pace of the lonely king.

    Looking at Huang Mingyuan whose expression had not changed at all, Yang Guang suddenly wanted to know what Huang Mingyuan was thinking.

    "What does Mingyuan think?"

    Huang Mingyuan was like a marginalized person and kept silent. When he heard Yang Guang's inquiry, he hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty's foresight is impressive. Once the canal is opened, it will connect the north and south, and it will be able to extend the length of the Sui Dynasty."  Eternal foundation.¡±

    Yang Guang smiled and said: "When did Mingyuan learn to flatter?"

    Huang Mingyuan, however, replied without blushing and without a beating heart: "Today, the Jianghuai River has countless fields, which are twice as fertile. Its fields are fertile, its people are trained, its wealth is abundant, and its weapons are sharp. It is the heart of the world. The canal is the heart of the world.  Once the canal is completed, it can connect the rivers in the morning and evening, and all the rich things from the south of the Yangtze River will flow into the north, so as to relieve the food shortage in the north. In addition, food will be stored and there will be no water damage. This is an advantage; once the canal is completed,  You can go boating in Shandong, control the Huaihe River and the lake, and communicate with the sea. Now the Southern Dynasty has died, and the southerners have not joined, and there are always troubles. From Luoyang, go straight to Huai and Si, from the north to the south, destroy the rebels, and you can be invincible.  Yes, this has two benefits: once the canal is complete, it can connect the north and south, and there are countless cities and villages along the way. With the benefit of the canal, the fields can be irrigated, and it can also open up the roads, clear the obstructions, and facilitate business travel.  The three benefits are the transfer of wealth, travel and food to the public, the accumulation of treasures in the palace, and the public and private support. Such three benefits, how can we improperly create the foundation of eternal peace? Xia and Yu did not have much merit."

    "Ha!!!" Yang Guang clapped his hands and laughed, "Mingyuan understands me, Mingyuan understands me. Mingyuan talked about his lonely heart. Xia Yu, a good friend, doesn't have much merit in terms of achievements. The canal is 10%,  He is no less capable of controlling floods than Dayu."

    Everyone seemed to suddenly realize it, and hurriedly gathered around to praise Yang Guang's talent and strategy.

    Huang Mingyuan is neither sad nor happy, with an indifferent look on his face.  He did not mention the absurdity of Yang Guang's three-year construction of the river, because now Yang Guang was only a king of Jin, and he was a king of Jin who could not listen to advice.

    ? Zhang Heng, Yang Zhao?No one said more.  What matters now is the position of the prince. As for repairing the river, let's wait until Yang Guang becomes emperor.

    Yang Guangma was very happy and entertained everyone on the giant boat.

    Although Yang Guang is a northerner, he particularly likes the scenery of the south. Even the humid and hot rainy season is not unbearable, let alone boating on the water.  His boat was modified from a large five-toothed ship. The long ship was as winding as a dragon, with pavilions and pavilions, and similar scales and armor.  At this time, Yang Guang was still frugal, but his boat was also majestic.

    The treasure ship headed north for several days before arriving at Banzhu, which is now the south side of the Yellow River northeast of Bishui Town, Xingyang City, Henan Province.  This place is bordered by Bianshui River in the east and Yellow River in the north. The future Tongji Canal will start from here and go south.

    At this time, as an important ferry, there were a lot of people inside and outside Banzhu City, and there were too many ships coming and going.  Yang Guang decided to rest here for one night before continuing westward.

    After nightfall, Huang Mingyuan no longer wanted to stay on the boat, but got off the boat and entered Banzhu Town.

    Although Banzhu is only a small market, Banzhu, Niukou to the west and Biankou to the east are the most prosperous places west of Hulao.  The town is not big, with markets, inns, and brothels all available.  The huge flow of people is spectacular.

    Huang Mingyuan led Huang Qing, Zheng Yanqing and others, walking east and west, and soon arrived at the most prosperous Hongjin Tower in the town.  Huang Mingyuan was originally very resistant to this kind of fireworks venue, but he stopped when he heard the turtle guys at the door saying that Lady Qionghua from Yangzhou was performing here.

    Having stayed in Yangzhou for nearly ten years, I have seen the Qionghua flowers in Yangzhou every year, but this is the first time I have heard of the Qionghua Lady.  Huang Mingyuan became interested and wanted to go in and take a look.

    ¡°Brother, it¡¯s not a good place to go in.¡± Zheng Yanqing said.

    Huang Mingyuan said nonchalantly: "If there's anything inappropriate, let's go in and have a look." In the past, Huang Mingyuan would not have gone, but Huang Mingyuan is a little unruly now.

    Entering the building, it looks a bit like theaters and teahouses in later generations, but not as big.  Lady Qionghua is playing the pipa on the stage through the curtain.  She was seen wearing a pink embroidered Luo shirt and an emerald green crepe skirt.  But the appearance is vague and unclear. It really looks like a flower but not a flower, and it looks like a painting but not a painting.

    He looks young, but sounds very skilled in his skills.  The song "Spring and White Snow" is full of the idea that everything knows spring and the gentle breeze is indifferent; it is awe-inspiring and clean, and the sound of snow and bamboo is dazzling.

    Huang Mingyuan was also a little intoxicated.

    After the song was finished, the woman stood up, bowed, and left.  Everyone in the audience shouted, "Miss Qionghua, play one more song."

    The woman was a little at a loss, but the boss was very smart and understood the value of rare things, so he asked the woman to go back.

    Huang Mingyuan was about to leave when he heard a commotion around the door. Huang Mingyuan turned around to see a group of prodigal children walking in.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
