Chapter 272: The Flood
In order not to worry Zhai Yewan, Du Yanwan pulled the corners of her mouth and pulled out a smile.
As soon as Zhai Yeqian saw her smirk, she knew that she was not at ease, so she told Du Yanwan about the affairs in the court.
It is nothing more than several princes fighting openly and secretly for the position of the crown prince, and Zhai Yeqian was unfortunately involved, and the same case was involved.
The emperor was suspicious of Zhai Yeqi, so he let Zhai Yeqian stay at home for a few days.
Zhai Yeyan repeatedly comforted Du Yanwan that she was only temporarily at home, and she would return to the court in a few days, so that Du Yanwan did not have to worry.
Du Yanwan was coaxed by Zhai Yewan for a long time, and she also believed his words, Zhai Yewan was idle at home, and she happened to accompany her, and she was also very happy.
It's just that it has been raining outside in the past few days when Zhai Yeqi is free, and the two of them have to nest in the house.
But even if the two of them nest together in the house and don't go anywhere, they feel very warm when they don't do anything.
Du Yanwan finished the clothes made for you Zhai Yeqi, so he picked them up and showed them to Zhai Yeqian and asked him to put them on and try them on.
Her craftsmanship has improved a lot compared to before, Zhai Yeyan happily put on Du Yanwan's clothes for herself, and her whole heart is warm.
"How do you like it?"
Du Yan admired the clothes he made in the evening, and silently praised his craftsmanship.
"I like it, as long as you do it, I like it."
Zhai Yeqian was very satisfied with the clothes Du Yanwan made for herself, and the smile on her face never faded.
Du Yan was happy to see him late, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
"The rain hasn't stopped."
Zhai Yeqian looked at the rain outside that had not stopped, and couldn't help but sigh.
Du Yanwan couldn't help but look out the window, she knew what Zhai Yewan was worried about.
It rained heavily, and it continued for several days, and the water level was already high in many places, and if it continued like this, there would have been flooding in some places.
When the flood rises, it will be the people who will suffer.
But God's business, Du Yanwan can't be the master, so he can only sigh, and secretly pray in his heart that the rain can stop sooner.
After watching the sky for a while, the two went their separate ways again.
Zhai Yeqian has been very busy lately, and he can always receive letters from all over the world.
The content of the letter Du Yan glanced at it sometimes, and it was about the heavy rain in the past few days.
The situation on the outside seems to be very bad.
A few days later, Du Yanwan heard the news that floods had occurred in other places, and many villages had been submerged.
Although he can't empathize, someone is suffering, and Du Yanwan can't help but worry.
After Zhai Yeqian was idle at home for a few days, he was recalled by the emperor to go back to the court.
Du Yanwan knew that it must be related to this flood disaster.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Du Yanwan to get the news that it was indeed related to the flood disaster.
After arguing in the court for a few days, a group of courtiers decided to let Zhai Yeqian go to the place where the flood disaster occurred to control the flood.
After Du Yanwan learned the news, he was always worried about Zhai Yewan's safety.
But the holy decree has been issued, and Zhai Yeqian cannot resist the decree and be disrespectful.
Although the Zhai family hated and worried that Zhai Yeqi would go to the place where the flood occurred, they could only silently pack their bags for Zhai Yeqian and send Zhai Yeqian over.
Du Yanwan was reluctant to go out alone with Zhai Yewan, she insisted on going with Zhai Yewan, but after Zhai Yewan knew about it, she didn't allow Du Yanwan to follow.
"There will be many unforeseen dangers in this flood control, you obediently stay in the capital and wait for me to come back."
"No, why can't you go and I can't?"
"I'm not afraid of danger, as long as I'm by your side, I'm not afraid of anything."
Du Yanwan said and hugged Zhai Yeqi.
She didn't want to be separated from him.
After Zhai Yeqian felt Du Yanwan's reluctance, she also hugged Du Yanwan tightly.
He didn't want to be separated from her, but there was no way, if he didn't go to control the flood, there would be no one in the court to go.
Zhai Yeyan endured the reluctance in his heart and pulled Du Yanwan away from his arms, "Wanwan, you are obedient, don't let me worry." ”
Du Yanwan shook her head, no matter what Zhai Yeqian said, she shook her head, she just wanted to follow Zhai Yewan together, no matter what danger happened, she would not be afraid.
Zhai Yeyan had no choice but to sigh when he was entangled by Du Yanwan, "That place is really dangerous in Wanwan, and I will be very busy after I arrive, and I won't have time to accompany you at all, are you sure you want to go?" ”
Du Yanwan's crying eyes were hazy, and he looked at Zhai Yeqi without blinking, "I said I was going, I was going, and I could help you." ”
"Where there are floods, we must do a good job of epidemic prevention, otherwise there will be a plague, you let me go, I can help you do this."
Du Yanwan said, holding Zhai Yeqi's waist tightly with both hands, for fear that as soon as he let go like this, Zhai Yewan's people would not be found.
Zhai Yeyan saw that Du Yanwan really wanted to follow her, if she didn't let her go, she would definitely turn her face, and in desperation, she nodded, "But after you go, you have to listen to me in everything, and you will do whatever I ask you to do." ”
Du Yanwan nodded, "Don't worry, I'll listen to you for everything." ”
As long as Zhai Yeqian let her follow, other things are easy to say.
Seeing her change her face so quickly, Zhai Yeqian couldn't help but laugh a little.
The others saw that the two had already spoken, and it was difficult to persuade them again.
Duchess Zhenguo couldn't help but instruct Zhai Yeqi, "Take good care of your wife, if something goes wrong with her, I will definitely not be able to get around you!" ”
She sighed in her heart that Du Yanwan's affection for her son was not easy to say.
"Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of Wanwan."
"If only you had a good idea."
She sighed and didn't say anything else.
The rest of them said goodbye to the two.
Du Yanwan only brought the sting and the winter solstice this time, and Xiaoshuang stayed in the Zhenguo Mansion.
Knowing that there was danger, he might have dragged Du Yanwan back in the past, Xiaoshuang didn't force it, and after nodding, she silently watched Du Yan get into the carriage at night.
Du Yan had already prepared the burden in the evening, she had already decided that if Zhai Yeqian didn't agree to follow her, she would follow quietly, anyway, she just wanted to follow him, and he couldn't drive her away.
After seeing the burden on Du Yanwan's carriage, Zhai Yeyan also guessed Du Yanwan's thoughts, and was a little helpless.
"You."
"It's good that you were smart and made the right choice, otherwise even if you didn't take me with me, I would have followed you myself."
Du Yanwan raised his chin and said arrogantly.
When Zhai Yeqian heard that there was no way to take her generation, she had to take her into her arms and pinch her face.
It was still raining lightly outside, and the speed of the convoy was neither fast nor slow, so they begged for a safe place and not to have anything happen on the road.
In fact, Zhai Yeqi's trip to Jiangnan this time was not just as simple as controlling the flood, the emperor secretly gave him a task to complete, and he had to walk.
didn't expect Du Yanwan to be involved, so he had to put more effort into protecting Du Yanwan all the way safe and sound.
Du Yanwan didn't understand what Zhai Yeqian was worried about, and when she saw that Zhai Yeyan kept wrinkling her eyebrows, she thought he was worried about the people in Jiangnan.
"You don't have to worry, we are about to arrive in Jiangnan, and after we arrive, I believe that with your ability, you will be able to cure the flood in Jiangnan soon."
Du Yanwan leaned on Zhai Yeqi's arms and reached out to smooth Zhai Yewan's twisted eyebrows.
When Zhai Yeyan heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded, "Mrs. Cheng Jiyan, I hope that after I pass, I can quickly control the flood and prevent the people from suffering from displacement again." ”
Du Yanwan nodded.
The two of them were in the carriage all the way, and Zhai Yeqian would receive carrier pigeons from time to time, talking about the situation in Jiangnan.
Although he has not yet arrived in Jiangnan, Zhai Yeqian has already made several plans along the way.
Sometimes Du Yanwan will help to take a look.
She comes from the future, has a lot of ideas that are different from these ancients, and can often give Zhai Yeqian some useful suggestions.
Only then did Zhai Yeqian deeply feel that it was not wrong for him to bring Du Yan over late.
The two of them traveled for more than half a month to reach Jiangnan.
It was still raining lightly in Jiangnan, and when the two of them arrived, the prefect of Jiangnan Mansion was already waiting for Zhai Yeqi outside with a county order.
When Du Yanwan came out of the carriage, he saw a large black person kneeling below, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then retracted his gaze casually, and put his hand in Zhai Yeqi's hand.
After everyone saw Zhai Yeqian coming out of the carriage, they stretched out their hands into the carriage again, and couldn't help but wonder for a while, what Zhai Yeqian was doing.
Then they saw another white and clean hand sticking out of the carriage, which was clearly the hand of the girl's family.
The dignified lord sent the lord out to cure a flood, and he also had to bring his female dependents, and some people couldn't help but scoff when they saw it.
Ignoring the eyes of others, Zhai Yewan carefully helped Du Yanwan down from the carriage.
It was raining lightly outside, so he held his umbrella above his head to prevent Du Yan from getting a little rain at night.
"Xiaguan has seen Lord Qincha."
The prefect of Jiangnan Mansion stepped forward first and said to Zhai Yeqi.
Hearing this, Zhai Yeyan's gaze shifted from Du Yanwan's body to the prefect not far from him, "Lord Zhou doesn't need to be so polite. ”
The prefect of this Jiangnan Mansion is surnamed Zhou, with a single name of the word "Zhi", and his political performance has been mediocre for many years, although there is no big mistake, but there is no great achievement, and it looks very mediocre, but for some reason, he has been staying in the position of the prefect and has not been transferred.
"Excuse me, all adults."
After Zhai Yeqian said a word, he was led forward by Zhou Zhi.
"Lord Qincha, the lower official has been waiting here with you for a long time, and he is also preparing a reception banquet for your lordship."
