Chapter 159: Strange

There is a sweet smell around the two of them, which makes people feel a sense of joy when they look at it.

"I've arranged some food for you in the front yard, you can go over and have a good rest, and I'll come back to you later to understand the situation." Sikong Mubai waved his hand as he spoke, signaling the housekeeper of the manor to take the two of them down first.

The butler bowed his head in understanding.

Sikong Mubai took Su Zhiyuan's hand, walked up the stairs, and then took Su Zhiyuan upstairs step by step.

"The inside of this manor is arranged according to your preferences, I don't know what kind of decoration you like, so there are some places I have temporarily reserved for you, and when you come, I will arrange it myself." Sikong Mubai said as he pointed to a few places that he had not arranged.

This is already very good, Su Zhiyuan swept here, and his heart was full of joy.

Because I heard Su Zhiyuan say before that he wanted to come to such a place, Sikong Mubai secretly remembered it in his heart.

"By the way, what are you going to do with those people? Such a big thing happened, do you think the emperor will know about it? Su Zhiyuan frowned and looked at Sikong Mubai and asked.

To be honest, Sikong Mubai doesn't know.

"But since such a big thing has happened in the coastal area, they want to hide it, unless all these refugees are resettled, but if they want to be resettled, they must need the imperial court to give them enough money." Sikong Mubai analyzed.

So the result of this analysis is that if these people want to hide this matter, it will be very difficult to hide it unless they pay out of their own pockets.

"So look at you like this, eighty percent of you are going to take care of this." Su Zhiyuan looked at Sikong Mubai with a smile, but he had already seen through his inner thoughts.

Now the emperor is disgusted with Sikong Mubai for some reason, but if someone says a few bad things about Sikong Mubai at this juncture, it is estimated that the emperor will hate him even more.

"Even if someone wants to say bad things about me behind my back, I must tell my father about it, besides, since these refugees have already arrived at the gate of the capital, whether it is true or false, which is right and which is wrong, when the time comes, my father will investigate it casually, and we really don't need to say more." Sikong Mubai said confidently.

Su Zhiyuan also felt a little reasonable when he heard him say this, although he was uneasy in his heart, but Sikong Mubai was a prince after all, and he had his own responsibilities on his body.

The queen is now imprisoned again, the situation in the court is becoming more and more complicated, and now most people are more optimistic about Sikong Mubai, but the crown prince has not been abolished, so if the emperor has a case, the successor is still the prince.

The refugees were arranged to rest in the manor for a night, and all the way from the coastal areas did not rest much, let alone eat, and could not even drink a few sips of water.

originally said that they were going to take Su Zhiyuan out to play, but after meeting these refugees, the focus of the two of them had changed from playing to investigating refugees.

So early in the morning, Su Zhiyuan and Sikong Mubai came to the house where the person lived.

"Don't be afraid, we are also members of the court, and we just came here to ask you what happened in this coastal area? How big is the fuss? Sikong Mubai didn't directly state his identity, he calmly looked at the few people opposite and asked.

Although they rested here for the night last night, it doesn't mean that these people will have absolute trust in Sikong Mubai and them, and Wen Yan still looked at them with a little vigilance.

What happened to them along the way? Why are you so vigilant when you arrive in the capital?

"You really need not be afraid, if you don't have a place to go now, there is still a place in this manor, where you can help with the work in exchange for food for the next few days, but if you want to go somewhere else, you can leave at any time." Su Zhiyuan opened his mouth and looked at the few people opposite and said.

She didn't intend to raise these people for nothing, no matter what kind of people they were, as long as they were provided with food and drink for free, it would make them develop inertia.

After hearing Su Zhiyuan's words, Sikong Mubai turned his head and glanced at Su Zhiyuan a little strangely, but when he received her determined gaze, he seemed to understand why Su Zhiyuan did this.

When they heard this, they looked at each other, turned their heads and looked at each other, as if asking the opinion of their companions with their eyes.

Finally, after a few seconds, one of these people, a slightly older man, sighed.

Su Zhiyuan's gaze instantly moved to this person's body.

"If you want to talk about it, we don't know exactly what is going on, the recent period of time happens to be the rainy season, the rainy season is more rainy, the river embankment is originally a little not very strong, originally we were going to strengthen it ourselves, but listen to those people in the imperial court, the imperial court will send people to reinforce, so we didn't move much, which Cheng wanted the people sent by the imperial court, but they just inspected it, looked at it and left, about half a month ago, the rain suddenly became bigger, originally just one or two places leaked, Just as we were about to find a way to plug it, the river suddenly burst the embankment. After saying these words, the man sighed, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of vicissitudes.

It was the home they had relied on for generations, and once they said no, there would be no more.

"It's good that we ran fast and escaped all the way, and many of the fathers and elders who ran slower were drowned in the sea." The other said with a sigh.

Su Zhiyuan listened to these words, and the more he listened, the more frightened he felt.

Although she was not there, just listening to these people, she could feel the horror of that time.

Su Zhiyuan has always been a little afraid of water, although it is not so terrifying, but just listening to the scene in front of him, he can also feel the situation at that time.

"Let's settle these people for the time being, but we can't spread this kind of news, otherwise if these people find out in the future, they come to us and ask us to help them arrange a place, then we can't bear it." After thinking about it for a while, Su Zhiyuan looked up at this Sikong Mubai, and said with some worry.

Sikong Mubai let out a "hmm", he didn't have that much time and energy to settle these people now.

stayed in the manor for about a day, because he thought that there were still a lot of things in the court, so Sikong Mubai left early.

Originally, I wanted to leave Su Zhiyuan here for a while to have a good time, but because I thought of the messy things in the house, Su Zhiyuan was not in the mood to play here alone.

After Sikong Mubai returned to the mansion, he immediately ordered his subordinates to investigate this matter, and sure enough, some results were quickly found.

"Well, since we are sure that this matter is undoubted, and many refugees have begun to come to our side from the coastal areas, let's go into the palace and talk about this matter with Your Majesty." When Sikong Mubai heard this, he sneered and said.

Although he didn't know who was responsible for the money allocated to repair the embankment, he knew that the person in charge must have cut corners.

In the imperial study, the emperor is worried about all kinds of things at the moment.

Listening to Sikong Mubai's words, the emperor squinted his eyes and looked at him and asked, "How can you be sure that these people are really those refugees who came from the coast, and not that someone deliberately wants to make a big fuss about this matter?" ”

Seeing this, Sikong Mubai arched his hand and said: "The father said these things, the son also thought about it at the beginning, so the son went to check it quietly, and found that there are already many refugees arriving in and out of the capital, if the father does not take some measures, I am afraid that after these refugees come, it will seriously affect the order of the capital." ”

Seeing that Sikong Mubai had already gone to investigate, the emperor still believed a little more in his heart.

But the silver taels for disaster relief had already been allocated early in the morning, and the emperor squinted his eyes and had some doubts about this matter.

"Okay, I already know about this matter, you go back first, and I will send someone to investigate this matter properly." As he spoke, the emperor waved his hand, signaling that he could go first.

Seeing this, Sikong Mubai originally wanted to say something, but seeing the emperor's expression, he already understood, and the emperor had already made up his mind in his heart, so he answered "yes" in a low voice.

After leaving the palace, what Sikong Mubai never expected was that Su Zhiyuan was actually waiting at the door.

When he saw Su Zhiyuan, Sikong Mubai was a little surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Didn't you go back to the Su family?" How did it end up here? ”

Su Zhiyuan saw that Sikong Mubai was back, and hurriedly stepped forward, then gently took his hand and said with a smile: "Aren't you going to enter the palace today to talk to Your Majesty about this matter?" I wondered if His Majesty would believe you, or hate you as much as ever, so I wanted to come and take a look. ”

Seeing this, Sikong Mubai's heart was warm.

He gently patted Su Zhiyuan's hand and motioned for her to follow her into the carriage.

"After telling my father about this matter today, my father said that he already knew, and if he wanted to come to his father, he would have already sent someone to investigate this matter, so you don't have to worry too much, and you should recuperate at home." Sikong Mubai gently patted Su Zhiyuan's hand and said.

Su Zhiyuan nodded slightly, because Su Zhiwei was still at home, so she didn't want to return to the Su family so quickly.

Although Su Zhiwei is not the slightest threat to Su Zhiyuan, she is always noisy in her ears, which is really annoying.

Su Zhiyuan doesn't like the noisy Su Zhiwei very much, so if she can't go back, she won't go back as much as possible, and it's not because she's afraid of her.

"What can I do, it's just idle at home these days, and I'm just bored." Su Zhiyuan glanced at Sikong Mubai with some amusement and said.

When the two of them learned about the things in the palace again, Su Zhiyuan felt more and more that the things at hand were a little difficult.

Although the emperor said that he ordered someone to investigate the matter, no one knows when the results will be available.

"But there have been refugees in the capital intermittently, I don't think my father will find out for too long, and no one dares to hide it when it comes to this point." Sikong Mubai thought about it and said affirmatively.

Su Zhiyuan didn't worry about anything else, she was just worried, and Yun Ge was still in the palace.

"I ordered someone to take care of Yun Ge secretly in the palace all the time, you can rest assured, there will be no problem." Sikong Mubai looked at Su Zhiyuan affirmatively and said.

Su Zhiyuan let out a slight "um", having said that, she was always uneasy.

Those refugees are still being resettled in the small manor, and Su Zhiyuan's heart is full of uneasiness, and for some reason, he is always uneasy.

However, the news that the emperor wanted to check was sent back, and sure enough, the matter was too big, and a group of them couldn't end it.

After learning that the silver taels he allocated for disaster relief were actually swallowed by those people, the emperor was furious, but the officials below said that they had not received the silver taels from the court at all, which made the emperor angry and almost fainted.

The next holy decree is the emperor's decree, ordering Sikong Mubai to find out about this matter.

"It seems that this is another life that offends people." When Su Zhiyuan heard the news, he sneered and said.
