Chapter 14 The Great Flood Washes Out All Evils and Starts Again!
Jiang County.
"Lord Wang, the General's Mansion has been very ambitious in the past few years, how can you give the order to the young general to transfer troops?" The seventh son was very puzzled, so he could only ask Mu Ran, who read the military book.
Mu Ran looked at Qizi and smiled knowingly, "You must know that the General's Mansion and Minister Xing have always been at odds, this time we used the General's Mansion to get rid of Minister Xing, and our enemy is one less." And now the general's palace still relies on the emperor, and he will not do anything out of the ordinary. Moreover, Minister Xing's 500,000 army has fallen into the hands of the emperor, although he sacrificed the Yuanguan army, but this is not a bad way. It can be described as killing two birds with one stone, got it? ”
Mu Ran accepted it from the puzzled seventh son, and after listening to Mu Ran's explanation, the seventh son nodded understandingly.
"It's still thoughtful that the prince and the emperor think about, and I'm afraid that my subordinates won't be able to think of it for the rest of their lives." Qizi smiled embarrassedly and scratched the back of his head.
Mu Ran threw the book on the desk to him, "Read more." ”
Qizi stretched out his hand to take the book that Mu Ran threw over, looked at the words of the art of war written on it, and his head was big, "Lord Wang, I'll go to practice martial arts first." ”
After saying that, he ran away in a gray manner, Mu Ran looked at Qizi, who was running faster than a rabbit, and laughed out loud.
Following.
Mu Ran got up early and ran to the river to check the disaster, the rain has stopped in the past few days, and the water in the river has fallen a lot, but it is still very full. Mu Ran walked along the river, sitting down and looking at the river from time to time.
Mu Ran sat on the shore, sat for a long time and remembered, his hand on the ground, and he got dirt in his hand.
Mu Ran looked at the dirt in his hands, and suddenly thought of something, "Damn, I actually used mud to build the embankment, no wonder it collapsed when the water washed away." ”
Mu Ran looked at the dirt on his hands and scolded angrily. The officials embezzled money from the dam, and it was fine, but now it has encountered a heavy rain that is rare in a century, and the dam made of mud is overwhelmed and washed away by the flood. This collapse has killed tens of thousands of people, and many people have been left homeless.
Mu Ran's heart hurts, he has been burdened with a responsibility since he was picked up by the national teacher and returned to the palace. He has always put the people first, but now his people are not like these officials, his heart really hurts. Tears flowed unconsciously, and Mu Ran wiped them away with his hands, but he still flowed, like crying for the dead people. Mu Ran suddenly burst out crying, he was really tired.
Chengnan came from the capital overnight, wanting to see Mu Ran, and as soon as he arrived at the post station, Qizi told him that Mu Ran went to the river alone.
Chengnan left a group of people behind and ran quickly to the riverbank. Unexpectedly, I saw Mu Ran breaking down and crying by the river.
Chengnan slowed down, walked to Mu and hugged her gently.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Mu Ran felt the temperature in his arms, and turned his head to meet the cool thin lips in the south of the city.
Mu Ran wanted to break away from Chengnan's warm embrace, but Chengnan hugged him tightly, where was Mu Ran's opponent in Chengnan, he couldn't break free, so he could only let Chengnan hold him.
Chengnan hugged Mu Ran for a long time, and Chengnan suddenly said, "Are you tired?" ”
Mu Ran looked down at Cheng Nan, who put his head on his shoulder, and whispered, "With you, no matter how tired it is, it's worth it." ”
Chengnan suddenly turned Mu Ran's body right, and her thin lips covered Mu Ran's red lips.
Mu Ran looked at Seonan who was squinting, and stretched out his hand to hug it tightly, as if he was afraid that it would disappear in the next second.
"Your Majesty...... I. ”
As soon as Mu Ran spoke, Seonan hugged him tighter, "I know what you want to say, I always knew it." ”
Mu Ran looked at him blankly, she couldn't believe it, she thought she was hiding it well, but who knew that Chengnan had already known about it.
After a long time, Chengnan let go of Mu Ran and held Mu Ran's face.
"Wait a minute, okay? After a few years, when the pests in the DPRK are removed, I will marry you. Chengnan looked at Mu Ran affectionately.
Mu Ran was shocked by this sentence and couldn't speak, only the tears that didn't fight slowly flowed down.
Cheng Nan gently helped her wipe away her tears, and asked Mu Ran over and over again in an extremely gentle voice. "I'll marry you in a few years, okay?"
Now Seongnam didn't dare to let her marry him like this, he was afraid, he was afraid that he would hurt her, he really hated himself for being incompetent at this moment, and he couldn't even protect the person he loved deeply.
Mu Ran's eyes that had been drooping finally raised.
"I will marry you when this country is prosperous and its people are happy and healthy."
Chengnan heard that Mu Ran agreed, and was as happy as a child, and stretched out his hand and hugged Mu Ran tightly.
Night station.
The seven sons and the two of them went to the kitchen to make a large table of dishes.
Mu Ran laughed at them, "You royal guards, can you cook?" ”
Wen Shu smiled and said, "We are out all year round, and sometimes we camp outside, and there is no one to cook, so we have to do it ourselves." ”
Mu Ran nodded, and helped Chengnan wipe the water off the chopsticks and replace it for Chengnan.
Chengnan watched Mu Ran help him with the chopsticks, and he was so happy that he took the chopsticks with a smile.
"Your Majesty, come to your favorite fried fish." Mu Ran sandwiched a piece of golden fried fish to Chengnan.
Chengnan also sandwiched a piece of pork ribs and meat for Mu Ran.
The group looked at Chengnan and Mu Ran's greasy appearance, and they all consciously lowered their heads to eat their own food.
After dinner, Seongnam pulled Mu Ran into the room and locked the door from the inside.
Cheng Nan looked at Mu Ran's face blankly, Mu Ran's face was very small, when Cheng Nan didn't know that she was a woman before, he felt that this man was like a girl, not masculine at all, and his height was half a head shorter than him.
Mu Ran was embarrassed by him, and coughed lightly.
Seongnam came back to his senses and turned his face away embarrassedly.
Mu Ran first broke this embarrassing situation, "The emperor has come to Jiangnan, what should I do with the court?" ”
"I told the public that I was frightened that day and had to recuperate for a few days."
Chengnan handled the affairs of the court, and he came to Jiangnan without worrying.
I was relieved to see that Mu Ran was safe.
Chengnan gently hugged Mu Ran, and put his hand on Mu Ran's slender waist, the thin waist that Yingying held in his hand, Chengnan really didn't want to let go.
Mu Ran lay awkwardly in the south of the city, moving around uneasily.
"If you move, I'll put you on the spot to correct the Fa." Cheng Nan gently exhaled in Mu Ran's ear.
He can't now, he can't be responsible for her, and he's afraid that the person who will lift her hijab when the time comes is not himself.
When Mu Ran heard this, he immediately lay down obediently and did not move.
"Your Majesty, after the death of the county magistrate of Jiang County, I found some letters in his house, from the General's Mansion."
Mu Ran diverted the topic and talked about the floods in the south of the Yangtze River.
"This general's mansion is really as we expected, swallowing a large amount of disaster relief money." Chengnan's hand gently stroked Mu Ran's face, and Mu Ran was touched and blushed.
Mu Ran suddenly thought, "Your Majesty, in addition to the letter from the General's Mansion, they also mentioned a place called the group in the letter, but I searched the entire Central Plains Continent and couldn't find this place called the group." Do you think it will be their secret base? ”
Seongnam nodded lightly, "It's possible, I'm going to check it out with the secret guard." ”
"Hmm."
Seongnam looked at Mu Ran's sleepy-eyed appearance, got up and carried her to the bed.
"Sleep, we'll go to the shore again tomorrow morning."
Chengnan helped Mu Ran cover the quilt and got up to go out. But Mu Ran pulled his sleeve tightly, otherwise Chengnan left, and Mu Ran looked at Chengnan pitifully.
"Would you like to spend the night with me?"
Chengnan laughed and stripped and lay down, gently hugging Mu Ran, "How old are you?" Still want someone to accompany you? ”
Thinking of Chengnan's confession today, Mu Ran was tired of him.
Chengnan also wanted to accompany her, but he was afraid of hurting her, but today he looked at Mu Ran's pitiful eyes, and he couldn't bear it, so he agreed to her.
That night, Mu Ran, who was asleep, didn't know that Seongnam was watching her all night. Seongnam secretly decided that he must marry her and give her happiness at all. In the past, she was his dependence, and now he must become her dependence.
Morning.
Mu Ran woke up in a daze, and he lost his mind in front of the heroic face of Chengnan.
"Is it pretty?" Chengnan looked at Mu Ran in a daze, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose unconsciously.
The blush immediately climbed onto Mu Ran's face.
Cheng Nan got up and did it, and threw Mu Ran's clothes to Mu Ran while getting dressed.
"Hurry up, have breakfast and accompany me to the shore."
"Oh."
The rain has stopped in Jiangxian now, and a gust of spring breeze is blowing, which is very gentle and warm.
If it weren't for the corpses of the people of Yiguo floating on the river, this would definitely be a holy place for spring outings.
The flood washed away the warm families that the people had worked so hard to create.
Lost a wife, a husband, a mother, a father, and a child.
The flood has buried all the sins and started all over again!
"Your Majesty, the biggest problem in Jiang County now is to rebuild the dam and help the people rebuild their homes."
"Then what good ideas does Aiqing have?" Chengnan squinted at Mu Ran, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose unconsciously.
"The corrupt officials replaced the mud from the dam with mud, and the dam was completely unusable. Except for those that were washed away by the water, the rest were to be demolished as well. ”
"Well, it's up to you." Cheng Nan leaned over slightly and scraped the bridge of Mu Ran's nose with his hand.
"Your Majesty, there are so many people!" Mu Ran looked at the seventh son and Wen Yu next to him.
"Ahem, forgot ......," Seongnam whispered.
Chengnan returned to normal: "Aiqing, do you say it will rain again?" ”
Today's weather is very good, Chengnan looked at the wild geese flying in the spring, and suddenly asked.
"A few days ago, I sent a letter to Master, and Master said that after this heavy rain has passed, there will be no more major floods, and he asked me to repair the dam as soon as possible." Mu Ran took out the letter of the national teacher from his bosom and gave it to Chengnan.
Chengnan took the letter from the national teacher, took a look at it, and returned it to Mu Ran.
Mu Ran's love for this master, Chengnan was very uncomfortable.
She kept Master's letter every time, and every time she wanted Master, she would take it out and read it.
"Aiqing, when we get old, we will go out to play like a national teacher." Seongnam looked at Mu Ran, who neatly folded the letter and put it in his clothes.
"Good!"
Mu Ran's crescent-like eyes and a slight smile are even more attractive.
Following.
"The emperor said; The magistrate of Jiang County, who embezzled disaster relief funds and ignored the law, has now been executed. ”
