The rain kept dripping, Li Yi was wearing an oilcloth poncho, urging the horse to hurry, Qin Nuan followed closely behind her, covering the same oilcloth poncho.

Next to Qin Nuan is Ding Yin's goods, followed by twenty Li Yi's personal guards, half male guards and half female guards, every time she goes out, the male and female guards must be half to half is particularly even, and there are also more than twenty Jin Wuwei from the capital, and the two leaders, Captain Xue and Captain Cheng, are all following.

Although everyone was wearing a poncho, but after walking in the rain for a long time, the poncho had no effect, the hair and clothes slowly became wet, and the cowhide soft armor on the body became cold and heavy.

Since the middle of March, the rainy days have hardly stopped, and the rain has only been sunny for a day or two for several days, and it continues to rain, so that people don't know when it will stop.

It's the end of April, Qin Nuan counted the fifty days, the number of days without rain is probably less than ten years, Li Yi also couldn't sit still in the palace, so he brought a group of people out to inspect, although her territory Yangzhou County is not big, but the following twelve counties, even on horseback, it will take several days to complete the inspection.

When I came out, I still picked a weather that cleared up when I looked at it, and the next night I didn't think of it, it rained drippingly.

However, what Li Yi meant was that since he came out, he would not return home until it rained, so everyone braved the rain and walked in various villages and towns for two days.

The group of guards in the palace were fine, but the group of Jin Wuwei obviously couldn't stand walking in the wet rain, but when they saw that the county lord and Qin Nuan and other little ladies didn't say a bitter word, they all gritted their teeth and followed without saying a word.

Fortunately, the place to rest every night is not bad, either a well-equipped and luxurious post house, or a Li Yi's village, and the wet clothes are washed and dried by a special person.

The rain gradually became lighter, the gloomy sky became brighter, and the commander of the palace guards who took the lead shouted: "The rain is about to stop, and a few miles ahead, it is the county lord's other village!"

The morale behind was suddenly high, and there was a cheer, and Captain Xue looked up at the sky and said, "Probably tomorrow, even if the sun doesn't come out, this rain will take a break!"

When I arrived at Li Yi's other village, the manager here had already received the letter, was ready, and took people to greet him outside.

Someone in the villa took care of the horses and horses, someone took the guards to take a bath and change clothes, and Li Yi took Qin Nuan and a group of female guards to the backyard.

After washing and bathing, change into dry clothes, the manager of Beizhuang let people serve hot and fragrant meals, although the method is simple and rough, but it is better than the original and fragrant.

Li Yi watched Qin Nuan bury his head and eat two small bowls of rice and a lot of meat and vegetables, and praised: "There is growth, if you run for your life in the future, you probably don't have to carry it on anyone's back!"

Qin Nuan put down his chopsticks, and when he heard such a sentence, he opened his mouth, but he burped......

Qin Nuanlian suddenly turned red, but Li Yi was happy, took a bowl of chicken soup from the head of Beizhuang, took two sips, and put it down: "The little body is much more solid, it didn't waste my hard work!"

In the past month or so, Qin Nuan has lived a very "fulfilling" life, because since the "catching spies" incident in early March, Li Yi threw her to the female guards of the palace to lead the exercise.

Since then, Qin Nuan has practiced horseback riding and various physical training every day...... In the first few days, Qin Nuan's thigh hurt so much that she walked with a limp, but she knew that Li Yi was doing it for her good, so she gritted her teeth and persevered without saying a word.

The effect is also obvious, this time following Li Yi out to inspect, Qin Nuan rode on horseback, and there was a kind of pleasure that was so big in the world that I could gallop......

I remembered the feeling of sitting on horseback trembling and falling down at any time in the bumps, and suddenly felt like a world away......

The female guard at the door reported: "County Lord, Ding Guards ask to see!"

Since the last time I heard Yang Yun say that Ding Yin had dealt with the bandits who came to Lingnan to kidnap her when she didn't know, her prejudice against Ding Yin had decreased a lot.

Li Yi got up and walked out of the dining room, and Qin Nuan immediately followed.

In the courtyard, Ding Yin was leaning on a pillar with his arms in his arms, and when he saw Li Yi coming out, a bright smile immediately bloomed on his face, revealing his white teeth.

Qin Nuan smiled secretly in his heart: He is really whiter than last year, not as oily and slippery as black, was he really sunbathed in the desert before?

Li Yi glanced at him, wandered leisurely around the courtyard, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Ding Yin immediately raised his leg to follow, his eyes seemed to be glued to Li Yi's body, and said, "I'm here to ask the county lord something!"

Li Yi didn't look back and ignored him at all, Qin Nuan glanced at him gloatingly, if this thing didn't say anything about it in the second sentence, he would definitely be kicked out!

However, Ding Yin didn't do what she wanted, and said directly: "The county lord is afraid of floods during this inspection?"

Li Yi stopped and looked at him.

Seeing Li Yi's gaze fall on him, Ding Yin's smile became brighter and brighter: "Because most of the places where the county lord has walked are riversides, and yesterday he went around Gaoyou Lake for a long time, and I don't know how long this rain will last!"

Qin Nuan was slightly surprised in her heart, she thought that she knew what Li Yi was worried about, but she didn't expect Ding Yinguang to guess it with her eyes.

Li Yi snorted lightly, "Can't you talk less nonsense?"

Ding Yin hurriedly said: "Okay, don't talk nonsense! The thieves in Jinling, I estimate that they will definitely come to Yangzhou to fight, but there has been no movement at all so far, I am afraid that when the time comes, the thieves and the flood will come together!"

After speaking, he paused and emphatically said: "Don't listen to what those scholars say about the thieves and soldiers, they are busy confronting the imperial army in Jiangnan West Road, and they will not cross the river to attack Yangzhou! I think they will definitely come! Break through Hangzhou Qiantang, they are the boat, and crossing the river is not a difficult task for them!"

In the end, Ding Yin also summed up heavily: "They must just want to wait for the flood to attack the city!"

Qin Nuan's eyes widened, isn't Ding Yin a ranger who can only fight and kill? He even understands this? This military and political war can actually have such a thorough insight?

No wonder Yang Yun said that this person can't look at him at face value......

The corners of Li Yi's mouth curled, smiled, and said approvingly: "You are really not stupid!"

Is that just not too stupid?

Qin Nuan silently ordered a wax for Ding Yin......

Then I heard Li Yiyun say lightly: "I've thought about all this, you don't have to worry!"

Ding Yin was not discouraged, continued to speak with a sense of existence, and said in a very affirmative tone: "But there is one extremely important thing, the county lord must not have thought of it!"

Li Yifeng's eyes narrowed: "Let's hear it!"
