Chapter 53 No Polder Floods

Qin Xiang returned to her room and changed into the palace maid's clothes. Picked up the teapot on the table and poured a glass of water to drink......

"Winter, where's the princess?" When Qin Xiang came out, she happened to see the cold clothes, grabbed her and asked.

"Qin Xiang! Well...... You're looking for a princess! The princess is in the side hall. Hanyi replied.

"Side hall...... Okay, I got it. Thanks! Qin Xiang patted her arm and left.

Qin Xiang came to the side hall where the dump was located, and there were two palace maids standing at the door. Seeing Qin Xiang, he blessed her slightly, nodded and saluted, and after Qin Xiang also nodded towards them, he walked in.

"Why are you here? Got out of class? Mo Lingxin looked back at her and asked, there was a bowl of steaming medicinal porridge on the table.

"See Your Highness," Qin Xiangfu saluted. looked at the leaning lying on the bed, and also blessed him.

"No courtesy, sit down!" Mo Lingxin motioned for her to sit down with her eyes.

Qin Xiang sat down obediently and put her hands on the table. "I'm out of class. Aunt Lu asked me to rest first and continue tomorrow. ”

"It's okay, do you feel tired?"

"It's not tired, it's just ...... I was the only one studying and I was a little bored. ”

"Study hard, you don't have to study anymore."

"Hmm," Qin Xiang nodded in response.

"By the way, he is ......" Qin Xiang looked at the person on the bed and asked in a whisper to Mo Lingxin.

"He is a proton sent by Dongli - His Highness Dumping." Mo Lingxin glanced back at Leaning and said.

"Your Highness?" Qin Xiang hurriedly got up and saluted to the Tilt on the bed: "Slave Qin Xiang, I have seen His Highness Tilt Away. I didn't know the identity of His Highness before, His Highness forgives my sins! ”

"Miss Qin Xiang, it's very polite. You don't have to salute me," said Tilt Li, who had been looking at them and seeing her salute. He could tell that she treated her differently than everyone else, she was not an ordinary palace maid. Moreover...... Now he is just a foreign outcast, and perhaps her status is more expensive than his.

Mo Lingxin took her hand and said, "The first time you salute, you won't need it in the future." ”

"Huh?" Qin Xiang looked at her suspiciously.

"In the future, if you are friends, you may not be sure." Mo Lingxin said as he pulled her to sit down. The first time he saluted, it was just to keep him from looking down on him too much.

"Oh" Qin Xiang was a little ignorant, not knowing what was going on.

"The porridge isn't very hot anymore, Xiang'er, come and help me."

"Oh~oh, okay" Mo Lingxin walked to the side of the bed and gently lifted the tilted head, Qin Xiang folded the two pillows according to Mo Lingxin's instructions and placed them under the tilting head.

Mo Lingxin lowered his head again, "Xiang'er, bring the medicinal porridge over." ”

"Okay" Qin Xiang walked to the table and brought the medicinal porridge.

Mo Lingxin took it and began to feed him slowly with a small spoon, still very rusty between movements.

Qin Xiang looked at her, "Lingxin, or ...... I'll do it! You are a princess, and it is not good for others to see it. ”

"It's okay, it's the same for everyone," Mo Lingxin replied.

Qin Xiang didn't say anything more, just did so beside him, wiping his mouth with a handkerchief from time to time according to Mo Lingxin's instructions.

Leaning away was a little unnatural, but thinking of the current situation of his body, he didn't show resistance.

There is no polder city lord's mansion

"Xia Guan and his son visited the two adults, and they were disappointed, and the two adults ...... Forgiveness. Mu Xu, the city lord of Wuwei City, rushed back from outside with Mu Yun, knelt down in front of Ning Yuan and Wang Shouqi, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and saluted with his forehead on the ground.

Ning Yuan and Wang Shouqi bent down together and personally helped him up.

Ning Yuan said: "Master Mu, hurry up!" Now there is no need for those false courtesies, and the special period is not so strict. Let's hurry up and discuss some water problems! ”

"Yes! General Ning is right, because the flood is more important than everything else. Master Mu, let's understand the situation first," Wang Shouqi also continued.

Mu Xu stood up straight and hurriedly said, "Lord Xie." The lower official asked Yun'er to arrange a place for the adults to live, and the lower officials told the adults in detail about the current flood situation. ”

"Don't bother Ling Gongzi anymore, Ling Zheng (the ancient name for other people's wives) has been arranged, and we can discuss things directly," Wang Shouqi said.

"Then we'll move to the study now."

"Two adults, please," Mu Xu said with his hand stretched out. Ning Yuan, Wang Shouqi, Mu Xu and Mu Yun walked towards the study.

"Lord Mu, how is the situation in the city now?" In the study, the four of them sat around the table, and Wang Shouqi looked at Mu Xu and asked.

"Lord Hui, for three days from the day before yesterday to today, Xiaguan and Inuzi have been paying attention to the changes in the water level and have increased. The lake outside the city is almost full, and it is only three or four days before the water overflows. Mu Xu said.

"Moreover, the people in the city have gradually panicked, and yesterday there was a matter of wanting to move their families, but they were stopped." Mu Yun added.

Ning Yuan's index and middle fingers tapped on the table, and the three of them looked at him, waiting for him to speak.

After a long while, Ning Yuan's fingers tapping on the table stopped. Looking up at the three of them, "Time is allocated, enough is enough." ”

"General Ning, what do you say?" Wang Shouqi asked. He only knows the various processes of the drainage project, and three or four days is obviously not enough, and it can only be other methods.

"Do you know where the Cliff is?" Ning Yuan looked at them and asked.

"Know" Mu Xu Mu Yun said.

"I don't know," Wang Shouqi said.

"The Uninhabited Cliff is between Wuwei City and Lingwu City, closer to Lingwu. Wuwei City wants to go to the uninhabited cliff, and it is separated by a hill. Mu Yun looked at Wang Shouqi and explained.

"That'...... What does General Ning mean? Wang Shouqi looked at Ning Yuan.

"We cut a canal to bring the water to the cliff first. During the day and night, two groups of people were exchanged, and the people from the Ning Family Army and the Shenji Battalion we brought were all involved, including the young and strong middle-aged men in Wuwei City. ”

"Introducing the uninhabited cliff, there are more people, maybe it will only take two days, if it is faster," Wang Shouqi said after a while.

"So, let's start the two projects together." Ning Yuan looked at the three of them and said with a firm look in his eyes.

"That'...... Is it in time? Mu Xu asked.

"In the early stage, we mainly focused on opening up a flowing canal leading to the uninhabited cliff, and strive to complete the repair within four days. In this way, after the drainage project starts, there will be less delay in the future. Let's think about it, put forward opinions, and see how we can change it to save time. Ning Yuan continued.

"We can recruit young men from neighboring cities, so it might be faster. Whenever a city is built, the young people of that city are recruited to help, so that the number of people increases, and the time for the successful construction of the drainage project will be reduced. Wang Shouqi suggested.

"Feasible" Mu Xu, Mu Yun, and Ning Qing glanced at each other and said.

"It's a really good method. When I set off, His Majesty also gave an order that if it could be completed as soon as possible, it should be completed as soon as possible, and disaster silver is not a problem. Ning Yuandao agreed with Wang Shouqi's suggestion.

Mu Xu Muyun and his son glanced at each other, and also nodded: "We also agree!" ”

"Then we'll start tomorrow, and I'll go with General Ning to check the geographical location later, and see where the best place to start is to open the road." Wang Shouqi said.

"Today, Lord Mu, you will follow the plan later, so that the people below know how to do it and what to accomplish in how much time. I'll leave it to you to mobilize the people to join in, to recruit young people, and so on. By the way, reassure the people and let them all know the news that the people from the imperial court have arrived...... "Ning Yuandao.

"Yes, the lower officials must do it well." Mu Xu responded.

"If we can do all the preparatory work today, then the official start of construction tomorrow will also be a time-saving point," Wang Shouqi said.

"Then we'll decide, and we'll do it." Ning Yuan looked at the three of them.

All three nodded in agreement.

"Master Mu, wait a minute, you can arrange for someone who is familiar with Wuwei to lead me and Lord Wang in the way." Ning Yuandao.

"Yes, General." Mu Xu nodded.

"That's it, let's all go! It's great to be able to finish it before dark. Ning Yuan stood up and said.

The others also stood up, looked at each other and nodded. Together, they went out of the study.

Capital

On the street, Mo Lingxin, Qin Xiang, and Hanyi Hanyu sat in the carriage, and the carriage drove slowly.

"Lingxin, what are we doing when we come out this time? Why is it so easy to get out of the palace. I heard that in the palace, isn't it difficult for the concubine to get out of the palace? Qin Xiang took Mo Lingxin's arm, puzzled, and asked.

"The queen mother asked me to come and see my grandfather and report safety. By the way, I also got to know my grandfather's family, and let them get to know me. So I asked my father to leave the palace to visit my grandfather and grandmother, and my father agreed, so he allowed me to leave the palace and gave me a token to leave the palace. Mo Lingxin replied.

"Aren't we going to have some gifts?" Qin Xiang asked again, she didn't see any gifts in the carriage.

"The Queen Mother is ready, we don't have to worry about it. I believe that the gift prepared by the queen mother is more in line with the hearts of their two elders. Mo Ling said in his heart.

"Oh~" Qin Xiang replied. Listening to the lively sounds outside, he lifted the curtain and looked at the traffic outside, selling various vendors.

"It's so lively outside!" Qin Xiang's voice was full of excitement, and he excitedly pulled Mo Lingxin and said. Lifted the curtain, moved her position out of the way, looked at Mo Lingxin, and motioned for her to look out.

Mo Lingxin looked at her happily, and also leaned over to her and looked outside.

"It's really lively...... Mo Lingxin looked at the cries of the vendors outside, shouting......

"In the future, when I leave the palace to live in the princess's mansion, I can often take you out to play," Mo Lingxin lowered the curtain and looked at the three of them and said.

"Thank you, princess," the three of them smiled happily and said in unison. Hanyi Hanyu also lowered the curtain and retracted his head.

Qin Xiang clasped his hands together and said with a longing on his face: "When I live outside the palace in the future, I will come out every day to buy a lot of delicious things." Strive to eat all over the capital".

Qin Xiang closed her eyes and fantasized about the wonderful life outside the harem......
