Chapter 52 Gambling

Maybe it was the old man who really wanted to let the river burst the embankment, and it started to drizzle in the evening, and the sky was gloomy, and it is estimated that this light rain is just a prelude, and the next one will be even greater.

Both of them looked at the window without saying a word.

Mo Qingqing hadn't slept for three days, she didn't know what was going on in her head, she only had two words left in her mind now: sleep.

Her head looked like it was cracking.

Many things seem to be handled by Murong Mo, but Mo Qingqing still has to do it himself.

There were more and more letters on the table, all of them were messages about the dam above, and by the current location, most of the sandbags on the dam had been emptied.

This outcome is to be expected, and the sandbag is a problem sooner or later.

Murong Mo put on his clothes, held a particularly heavy umbrella in his hand, and said, "Isn't the emperor going to take a look at the dam?" ”

Mo Qingqing responded, also put on her clothes, and went out with Murong Mo, because there was only one umbrella, so both of them shrank under the big umbrella, Murong Mo suddenly reached out and hugged her, leaning under the umbrella as much as possible.

Mo Qingqing didn't care about his actions in the past few days, spread his hands and let him hug him like this.

At most, what if it is said to be a broken sleeve?

She's a man now.

Along the river, a path only two meters wide is already full of people coming and going, all holding sandbags in their hands, and carrying them up one by one.

All the personnel of the county order also began to mobilize, and the heavy rain could not stop their pace.

On the dam, there are already people at this time, I don't know how many floors.

Murong Mo stood on the side, pointed to the crack on the dam and said, "These are all in vain. ”

Mo Qingqing also saw this crack, and now the problem is no longer that the flood will spread down from the dam, but that the dam will be destroyed!

Mo Qingqing broke out in a cold sweat.

"Now order everyone to go back to the village." Murong Mo said to the little guy beside him.

The little guy took the order and took a few people to speak.

She didn't understand, why did the good ones withdraw? She also thought that Murong Mo would hold on to the end.

After that, Murong Mo held up the umbrella again and said, "We will be in the village now." ”

"Yes."

Everyone returned to the village, including everyone on the dam, and thousands of people were crammed into a small village with a slight congestion.

Which one is Murong Mo singing?

At this time, Murong Mo was holding the map and continuing to study, Mo Qingqing leaned on the bed board and asked, "What's the use of you calling these people back?" ”

Murong Mo asked her rhetorically, "Is it useful on the dam?" ”

Mo Qingqing was silent, as if neither method had any effect.

"I just looked at the map," Murong Mo said, "This small village, and a small village on the side, there must be one that is going to be flooded, and now I am thinking about which one will be flooded." ”

"Take your pick." Mo Qingqing's geographical knowledge is poor, so he can only talk casually.

"Your Majesty, you can choose any one." He generously showed her the map with the clear boundaries of the land.

This...... What's on it? A map is overgrown and has been densely painted with all kinds of things by Murong Mo.

Look, look at the yarn.

Mo Qingqing casually pointed to a place and said, "This is it." ”

The place where Murong Mo skimmed Mo Qingqing's finger was the small village next door.

He looked at Mo Qingqing with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is the place you chose." ”

Mo Qingqing leaned on the bed and nodded carelessly.

Then everyone moved to the next village, where it rained for a day and a night, and from the river, the current was a little rapid, but at least the dam was not broken.

The next day, the rain was still pouring down, and the river level rose by more than 10 centimeters.

After two days, Mo Qingqing's nerves were tense, and the whole person was a little nervous, and he was very arrogant, for example......

"Murong Mo, I don't want to eat porridge this morning, go, hurry up and get me something else that tastes."

"Murong Mo, I'll just squint my eyes, don't keep reminding me, I'll open my eyes all at once."

"Murong Mo, go and pour me water, I'm taking a bath."

In this way, Mo Qingqing made all kinds of strange demands to Murong Mo, and she was always unsatisfied, she almost suspected that she was going to enter menopause early.

However, Murong Mo is still honest, pouring water and washing her face or something, it is no different from a nanny.

Fortunately, Murong Mo knew Mo Qingqing's gender, otherwise he would definitely think that this man was annoying like a woman.

In the afternoon of the next day, I heard the sound of the sky collapsing and the earth cracking, and the river suddenly rolled in, and several water columns more than ten meters high were lifted, and a wave knocked out the one closest to the river.

Murong Mo muttered, "Has the embankment finally broke?" ”

The flood water burst and the river made a rumbling sound, which was deafening.

It didn't take long for someone to spread the news that the river had spread to the land.

Mo Qingqing grabbed Murong Mo's sleeve and said nervously, "Murong Mo, what if I make the wrong choice?" ”

Murong Mo seemed to believe in her very much, and the corner of his mouth smiled, not at all as nervous as Mo Qingqing, as if he was not trapped in the flood now.

In fact, Mo Qingqing wanted to say that she was stupid, how could she choose this place, this place was relatively low, and the water had all poured in.

There was a rumbling sound of water in his ears, and Mo Qingqing's nerves tensed even more.

A thin layer of water had already appeared under her feet, good fellow, and now it had spread into the room.

She pushed open the window, and yes, the river continued to spread.

She could feel the speed at which the water was rising beneath her feet, and all of a sudden, her ankles were all dipped in the water.

She jumped onto the bed, and now only the bed was not soaked.

Murong Mo stood in the water, drinking tea slowly and methodically, watching the water under his feet gradually spread.

"Your Majesty, how about Weichen make a bet with you?" Murong Mo said leisurely.

"What bet?" At this time, she still has to make a bet.

He placed the teacup on top of the already wet coffee table: "After a pillar of incense, the water will stop." ”

Mo Qingqing looked at the bed that was slowly floating upwards with a sad face: "Impossible." ”

The corners of his mouth tugged at a smile: "If I stop, the emperor will give me a promise." ”

"What promise?" Mo Qingqing curled up on the bed.

"I didn't think about it."

“……”

Where did he get the confidence to say that he would stop? Look at the posture of this water, let alone a pillar of incense, it will not stop until tomorrow!

"What if you lose?" Mo Qingqing said.

"If I lose, I will resign from the position of Taifu and become a eunuch in your palace."

Mo Qingqing interjected: "You don't have to be a eunuch, just be a guard." ”

What a pity for such a beautiful man to be a eunuch.

She shuffled her cheeks.

"Deal."

Murong Mo took out a pillar of incense from his arms and inserted it into the incense burner, and Mo Qingqing looked at the incense while looking at the water.

For the first time, she felt that the time of a pillar of incense was so difficult.

When the last bit of incense ash was poured, the house was still full of water, and Mo Qingqing said, "You lost." ”

Murong Mo hooked the corners of his mouth: "Not necessarily"

Not necessarily?

He opened the window and found that the water outside the window was already submerging the water in the room.

What's going on?

"Your Majesty, are you willing to gamble?"
