The heavy rain has been falling, and Mi Huang stood in front of the window for a long time, looking at the lights in the distant council hall that have not been extinguished, and the music in the state banquet hall farther away has not stopped, and suddenly turned around and said, "Siqin, go get my big coat, I want to go to the council hall!"

"Lady, don't you rest so late? Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Si Qin said hesitantly.

"The way out, the way out, the way forward, we only have a way out, and we have a way to sit in the city of sorrow here, where can there be a way?"

This sentence was not only said to Si Qin, but also to Mi Huang herself.

She doesn't want love and family, but she doesn't want to wait for others to save her life, and she doesn't want to pin all her hopes on others and end miserably, she can't afford to gamble on this life, and she can't afford to gamble on the life and future of herself, her relatives and the child in her womb.

The wind and cold rain, Mi Huang put on a big cloak and walked out of the dormitory, with the siqin and they carried all kinds of snacks and refreshments, along the winding corridor of heavy rain, through the rockery garden, and the high wall of the hall, and finally "squeak" to push open the heavy temple door, and then she dropped the hood of the cloak, and the sassy cold door blew in, blowing away her green silk, flying up and down in the wind, as if a black phoenix flag was blowing in the wind.

In the brightly lit meeting hall, the bright lights suddenly illuminated the woman who hurried in the night rain, and a pair of eyes were as bright as stars looking at the dozen people in the hall, and smiled, "Can I be together?"

The wind and rain of the world does not mean that it stops, just like the fate of this world, it is not all the choice of the human heart.

But perhaps from this moment on, the great wheel of fate finally roared again, carrying her life into an even more unpredictable future, but so what?

At least at this moment, she took this step, and she was at ease.

Of course, she also knows what it means to take this step.

But she has never been a person who resigns herself to fate, otherwise she would not have spent ten years in this life, just to change her life against the sky and walk out of a new life, instead of repeating the mistakes of the past.

On the long table in the main hall, everyone looked at the woman who came in the wind and rain, looking at the smile on her face, Sun Hou was the first to say, "Come in, silly girl!

"Yes, grandfather. Mi Huang grabbed the hem of her skirt, stepped into the main hall, and then walked to the opposite seat of Cheng Jia and sat down, "I also want to come and help something, if there is anything you need, tell me!"

Cheng Jia was stunned for a moment at first, it was so late, she should have rested a long time ago, since that time his eldest sister's incident, he also tried to visit the East Palace, but he was turned away, let alone tell her about the son-in-law, but it was difficult to even meet her, and now she came so late.

No matter what the reason was, he didn't say anything more, he smiled, "Let's do it together!" After only saying this simple sentence, he turned to look at Sun Hou and continued to ask, "Sun Hou, you have participated in several disaster relief matters in the past when the Huai River flooded, what I just said, can you always talk about your opinion?"

Si Qin and Si Hua saw that the dinner served on everyone's table was already cold, and silently replaced them with the new snacks they brought, Gong Nian was really hungry, he had never participated in such a powerful work, saving water was the same as saving lives, every minute and every second was rushing for time, but they had to divide several severely affected towns and mild towns all, and then reasonably distribute the manpower from all over the place.

For these people, for these soldiers, for this food, where to give and how much, there must be a calculation.

But there's really not much time left for them to take care of.

Although Sun Hou does not have much knowledge in flood fighting, he has experienced many flood fighting and disaster relief, and he is more or less well-informed than Cheng Jiagong and other young people.

Sun Hou nodded slightly, and said, "It's no problem for you to arrange the distribution of our personnel according to the severity of the disaster in each county and county, but in the past, some important river embankments also had to be reinforced by people, and many disasters were caused by river embankment bursts, which is a big problem." ”

Then Sun Hou paused again and continued, "You must urgently allocate a large number of sand and gravel sacks, order all the local government troops and the troops who go to the rescue army to stand by and set off to the front line of flood fighting, garrison the embankment, and the people of the Ministry of Labor are not needed, this is your duty, each of you must set off with the army and supervise every disaster." ”

"Yes!"

The public is waiting for everyone in the Minister's Mansion to nod in agreement.

"I have something to add, I also heard you introduce the situation of each town at the meeting just now, and the people of your Ministry of Labor must be sure to give Ben Tainu a special person in charge and the general manager of each county and county in charge of the major tributaries and the embankments along the river, Yingdu, Zhijiang City, Dengcheng, Tangcheng, Suicheng, Jingling, and Jingmen City. Wherever there is a problem, this lady will find it afterwards!" Mi Huang looked around at these weak craftsmen in the Sigong Mansion and said in a cold voice.

Cheng Jia also bowed his head heavily, "Yes, people are on the embankment, and people are killed on the embankment! This time, this right disciple will not intercede with anyone in your Gongfu again, and if there is a slight slackness, all of them will be exiled from the army." And the public loser, if something happens, you have to be the first to blame!"

If necessary, it is necessary to add clockwork to these officials of the Ministry of Labor.

In the past, the Chu State had been fighting for many years, and there was no time to focus on water conservancy, but now that it was not a war year, if they were still so careless, then he wouldn't mind changing to a better worker.

Mi Huang and Cheng Jia, a princess, a right disciple, they released such words, which undoubtedly made the hearts of some of the workers who were still complaining just now tighten, "Yes, Your Highness the princess, Lord Youtu, we will definitely guard the embankment with our lives!"

"Good!"

Cheng Jia propped his hands on the table and looked around at the people, "I hope that all of us here can unite as one to survive this flood, and I also hope that we can unite with the people, after all, we and the army have limited manpower, and at the critical moment, we must also rely on the dependence of the broader people on their homeland to mobilize the people to fight with us, instead of splitting, and even taking the lives of the people to fill the gap of the flood." ”

Cheng Jia's words must be said in the front, in ancient times, unlike the modern generation, there was no developed means of transportation and engineering equipment, and the following counties may also exert the power of the people, but it is more likely to take the lives of the people and slaves to fill this ruthless gap.

"Yes, Lord Right!"

Everyone bowed their heads, and even Mi Huang realized the unspoken sound of what he said.

"Then today's meeting, that's it, everyone starts their own work and is ready to go!"

At the end of the meeting, Cheng Jia asked about the situation of everyone present, and said with a gentle smile, "Time is urgent, everyone may be on the road soon, and if you need to report to the old and young in the family, all of them should be registered on Chen Huang's side, and he will send someone to deliver the letter to everyone later." If the flood passes this time, I will definitely give you a great credit!"

After getting Cheng Jia's assurance, everyone was relieved when they heard this, "Thank you, sir!"

Then everyone went out one after another to prepare, clothes don't need to be prepared, there will be ready-made dry candy over there, what to eat, Cheng Jia has already asked Sun Shuao to prepare for the army, Cheng Jia slowly packed up his things, and Mi Huang also helped after explaining to Sun Hou that he must take care of his body.

Outside the hall, the raindrops the size of beans fell on the bluestone bricks, making a loud noise.

In the hall, Mi Huang silently collected things, thinking about how to speak, and finally closed the rolled water scripture diagram, pushed it across the table to the person opposite, raised his head and said, "Can I ask you for something?" ”

Cheng Jia paused when he heard the movement of his hand, looked up at the woman opposite, and his big hand also lightly fell on the water scripture map, "What's the matter?"

"I would like to ask you to teach my cousin when you are free, he has been in the army all his life, and he has never been ignorant of these political affairs, and as a soldier, he only knows that it is natural to obey military orders......

"Do you want Shu Ao to abandon the army and enter politics in the future?"

Before he could speak, Cheng Jia had already heard the sound and knew what he meant, and his brows furrowed slightly, "But will he be willing?"

"You'll have to give it a try. ”

Mi Huang thought for a moment and said.

She knew that her request was a bit sudden, but this was a way out that she had been thinking about for so long, their Sun family had no one in the court, which was equivalent to her having no eyes and ears, once someone put a cold arrow on the court and aimed it at their Sun family or her back, all of them could only carry their backs and die.

On the contrary, if Uncle Sun Ao abandons the army to join politics, it does not mean that there will be no one to take over the Iron Guard of his Sun family, at least there is still his grandfather in the past two years, and it is definitely too late to train a new successor to his cronies, no matter how bad she is!

"Okay, I'll help you point out Shu Ao, in fact, with his temperament, whether he is in the army or politics, he is for the country and the people, and he will be a good official. Cheng Jia said slowly.

"Well, our Sun family, whether on the battlefield or in the court, has always been loyal to the country and the people. Mi Huang nodded slowly.

Even if this foolish loyalty caused her mother to die in the conspiracy of the deep palace, let her uncle and aunt die at the hands of the Jin people without a corpse to collect, and let her maternal grandfather send a white-haired person to a black-haired person, but this country needs such a cornerstone.

The two of them may not know that it is because of their private actions that they have cultivated a pure Ling Yin talent for the future generations of the Chu State.

This is probably the future that Uncle Sun Ao would never have thought of in the twenty-six years of his previous life.

The future he has always understood is a bloody battlefield.

Everyone was ready, Chen Huang pushed the door and walked in and said to Cheng Jia, "Second brother, the carriages and horses have been prepared, the 20,000 recruits have been fully equipped, we are leaving!"

"Let's go!" Mi Huang smiled when he heard this, "I cherish all the way here, although disaster relief is important, but I think if Chu State can't live without you!" Even if she has two selfish intentions, Chu Guo really can't find a second important minister in the court like Cheng Jia who cares about the lives of the people.

Cheng Jia was stunned when he heard this, but immediately nodded and smiled, "Okay, I will definitely come back!"

"Hmm!

The words whispered like a breeze came into her ears in the night rain, she sent them all the way out of the hall, and even saw them get into the carriage and stood under the porch to see them away, Cheng Jia boarded the carriage, and after a long time couldn't help but lift the curtain and looked back, the woman stood on the jade steps of the golden temple, with a canopy umbrella on her head, but through the merciless wind and rain, she kept following their departure.

The rain kept falling, the road was also bumpy, the rain had overflowed the ankles of the soldiers and horses, but no one shouted tired, sitting in the carriage he looked at the long army, slightly pulled up a corner of his lips, and clenched the topographic map of the water in his hand.

He will definitely come back well.
