"The river is diverted, but we can really get paid for our efforts?" asked a clever person in the crowd in a loud voice.

"Naturally. Shen Zeyuan is used to being cold outside, but now he is still cold and cold, but in front of Song Shuyan in private, he can be gentle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the diversion of the river will not only distribute wages, but also include the three meals a day. Song Shuyan spoke at the right time.

This remark exploded among many refugees, and the crowd had only joy and joy, and as for what would happen after the diversion, only a few would think.

And this is a question, but no one has ever thought about the consequences of it, that is, instinctively think......

Since the current court officials have all said this problem, and let them contribute, they can get money and food and clothing, what is not satisfied?

What's more, since they dare to bring it up, it is naturally beneficial to them Jiangnan.

"Okay, I'll take the matter of river diversion. As one of them agreed, dozens of people enthusiastically followed.

Song Shuyan guided them to the side to sign up, and instructed them when to start modifying the river and what to pay attention to?

After Song Shuyan finished speaking, she put a hat on Shen Zeyuan, saying that these were all what Shen Zeyuan thought.

Suddenly, Shen Zeyuan hurriedly rose in prestige in the hearts of the refugees.

In the conversations of many people, one or two sentences of praise for Shen Zeyuan are occasionally mixed in.

Although Shen Zeyuan had some doubts about this, he also recognized the purpose of doing things according to Song Shuyan, after all, he also agreed with the view of river renovation that day.

After half a month, the winding and rugged river channel became many branches, turning into small streams and streams to irrigate the farmland, so that the flood damage was reduced.

Although the ground in Jiangnan is still a little damp, these floods have been dealt with in the end.

On this day, the refugees in Jiangnan can no longer be called refugees, and while they are solving the floods, there are also some women and children and some young and strong people, building houses and some cultivating agricultural land.

For a while, the atmosphere of Jiangnan has changed, although it has declined, but there is a thriving atmosphere of joy everywhere.

When passing through the streets and alleys, you can still hear the praise of the people for Shen Zeyuan.

"His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is really careless, this time we are really blessed to have a disaster relief in Jiangnan. ”

"The Seven Princes came to us, not only executed those insatiable corrupt officials, but also modified those rivers, which can not only solve the floods, but also allow them to irrigate the farmland, which can be described as once and for all. ”

"God is still kind, otherwise he would not have sent His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince over, presumably he is naturally a very benevolent prince. ”

Passing by Song Shuyan, who had almost no sense of presence, he heard the vendor in front of him talking to the customer.

When she heard them say that Shen Zeyuan, the Seventh Prince, was very kind, she almost didn't fall while walking.

When he returned to the mansion, Song Shuyan still had doubts about Shen Zeyuan whether he was kind or not.

"The floods in Jiangnan have been solved, and as for food and clothing, food and nutrition for disaster relief, it is no longer a problem. Shen Zeyuan opened his mouth and said, his cold face rarely showed a soft complexion.

Song Shuyan didn't see it, and when he saw it, the expression on his face was still the same cold look.

"The disaster relief has been completed, will we return to the capital tomorrow?" They have been here long enough, and if they don't go back, they don't know how much more changes will take place in the court.

"Now that the mission has been completed, we are going to return to the capital. Shen Zeyuan said.

Song Shuyan pursed his lips.

At night, Song Shuyan rarely slept unsteadily, but his heart was not nervous, let alone worried, but because of a feeling that he was too depressed and could suddenly get and relax.

The next day, when Song Shuyan and Shen Zeyuan were about to leave for the capital, the magistrates in Jiangnan already knew that they were leaving.

By the way, the people of Jiangnan also knew.

So when you got into the carriage and walked out into the streets, they didn't see any of you, and the few pedestrians walked down the streets empty, as if they were ghosts.

However, when they arrived at the gate of Jiangnan, Song Shuyan and Shen Zeyuan saw a different scene, and they saw a lot of people in Jiangnan outside the city gate and there.

As soon as they saw the carriage coming, some of the young men could not resist taking a basket with some food in it and putting it on the carriage.

"My lord is going back to the capital, these are all thanks to our fathers and fellow villagers, and I hope that my lord will not refuse. Song Shuyan heard this sentence as soon as he came out, and couldn't help but look in the direction of speaking.

The people were so squeezed out of the car that they couldn't get out, and the driver also had some feelings of wanting to cry without tears.

"It's Miss Song. A voice in the crowd shouted.

"Miss Song, these are our thoughts, please pass them on to Your Highness. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your kindness, but we are also in a hurry to return to the capital to resume our lives. ”

"As for His Royal Highness the Prince, because he worked all night last night to handle official business, he fell asleep in the carriage early this morning. What Song Shuyan said was true.

It's just that the farewell of the people in Jiangnan is so big, and he is not a pig, since it is impossible to sleep deeply.

"It's only been a long time since the flood in the south of the Yangtze River passed, and you are in a hurry to deliver food, aren't you afraid that you will be hungry?" Shen Zeyuan's words sounded from inside the carriage, still a little cold.

The people at the carriage were stunned.

Song Shuyan rejected them with a sneer, joking, what Shen Zeyuan said was indeed not wrong.

But the thought that they had left like this might have made them sad, so when she saw the basket of a young, skinny man, she said, "That's it!"

A few years ago, the man was very happy, and he said, "I don't have anything good, only a handful of loess." "He is a native of Jiangnan, and he is naturally grateful to them for not migrating to other places.

"That's it. Song Shuyan said with a smile.

After talking to them a few more words, they left the way back to Beijing, which lasted more than ten days before they returned to Beijing.

In the court.

The emperor, who was dressed in a dragon robe with a majestic momentum, heard that the disaster relief was perfect, so he couldn't help but clap his hands and said, "Okay, Yuan'er, this disaster relief went very smoothly, and you did a good job." ”

Shen Zecang didn't say a word on the side, his face was expressionless, and he was so jealous that he put away the warmth on his face like jade, and became silent and gloomy.

In the entire court, the emperor praised Shen Zeyuan, and asked him more about what happened to the Jiangnan disaster relief.

When he heard that among the people sent for the first time, there were greedy people like Luo Fan, and the emperor was furious, and then when he heard the end, he calmed down his anger.

After Shen Zecang went down, he saw Shen Zeyuan's back calmly leaving, and he only felt that he couldn't see through it more and more.

A few days later, when he was in the court, the people in the court also looked at their noses and hearts, and naturally saw that Shen Zecang was wrong with Shen Zeyuan, and even found that Shen Zeyuan and Shen Zecang had the momentum of fighting each other.
