Chapter 331: Drought

Seeing that the outer room could not be intervened, Fang Jing entered the inner room and helped the maid make the bed and fold the quilt. When everything was ready, she took a few steps back and saw that some decoration was missing, so she ordered the maid to prepare.

After a while, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her, and she didn't look back: "Bring it? give it to me, I'll arrange it!"

After waiting for a while, but there was no movement behind her, she couldn't help but look back in surprise, and was immediately startled: "See the emperor!"

"No courtesy. It was Dongling Guyun who came in, looking at Fang Jingjing, his voice was gentle, "Crystal, just leave these things to the maid to do, you can rest." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the crystal is not tired. Fang Jing smiled and shook her head, "The princess's wedding is a big deal, how can Crystal stay out of it?"

Dongling Guyun pursed his lips and was silent for a moment before speaking: "Crystal, for my revenge, you have sacrificed a lot, and you have also delayed your good years. Now that everything is complete, what are your plans? Or do you have someone you like? If so, just say that I will do it anyway. ”

Fang Jing was stunned for a moment, and a trace of bitterness flashed in his eyes: "Is the emperor worried that the crystal has not given up yet, and is still delusion......al?"

"No, I don't mean that. Dongling Guyun shook his head and immediately interrupted her, "If I really have this worry, I won't keep you forever, and I would have sent you away far away." I can see that since last time, you have reverted to the kind and upright Xue Jingyue you used to be. ”

A hint of warmth appeared in Fang Jingjing's eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty! With the emperor's words, the crystal doesn't ask for anything else." It's just that fate is hard to come by, and the crystal has been waiting. ”

Dongling Guyun smiled: "Actually, you don't have to force it, what belongs to you will belong to you after all, and others can't take it away." ”

Fang Jingjing nodded: "Yes, thank you Emperor!"

At this time, the maid had already returned, and Dongling Guyun waved his hand to stop everyone's worship, and then retreated. He couldn't help with the affairs of men and women, Fang Jing could only ask for more blessings.

After the wedding, Tanglin Yingya took everyone's blessings and advice, said goodbye to all relatives and friends with tears, and followed Suo Tianli to the Tianlong Kingdom. Although the white dragonfly is very reluctant, her biological daughter can find true happiness, and she is even happier for her, wishing her a happy life, peace and health.

In any case, this matter has finally come to an end, and for Dongling Guyun, the most important thing now is to eliminate the impact of the Tanglin Luoxi incident on the Yulin Kingdom, bring everything back on track, and ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment, and must not cause the slightest turmoil.

Fortunately, this is not difficult for him, but he inevitably gets busy, and almost all his energy is focused on dealing with national affairs. Knowing that this is a normal phenomenon, Duanmu Youning doesn't care, and he practices martial arts every day, and he has a very fulfilling life.

Winter goes to spring, and in the blink of an eye, it's another year.

With the efforts of Dongling Guyun and a group of courtiers, the remnants of the Dongling Luoxi faction were basically cleared, the comprehensive national strength of the Yulin Kingdom was further improved, and the people praised the new emperor, and the government and the opposition were thriving.

Seeing all this, Dongling Guyun was naturally very pleased, feeling that he had finally lived up to the emperor and guarded the thousands of miles for him. However, in this good situation, there is one thing that has become on his mind, making it difficult for him to sleep and eat every day: in the past year, it has not rained in Yulin Country, and not a single snowflake has fallen throughout the winter, and the drought is already threatening the lives of the people!

Water is the source of life, and because of the drought, crops can hardly grow, and the farmland has even cracked one after another hideous cracks, as if they want to devour all life! In desperation, officials in various localities have no choice but to instruct the people to draw water from rivers and wells to irrigate the land, in order to relieve their urgent needs, and they are looking forward to the early rain from heaven.

Not only that, the large lakes in the Yulin Kingdom are shrinking at an alarming rate, and the small lakes have long since dried up! The rivers have been cut off, the fish and shrimp have died, the water in the wells is getting less and less, and the water level is constantly decreasing! The drought is gradually endangering the entire Yulin Kingdom!

"The ministers see the emperor! Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

"Zhongqing is flat. ”

Dongling Guyun frowned slightly, and waved his hand to signal everyone to be exempt. When the ministers got up, the chamberlain Sun Ruhai had already stepped forward and spoke: "The emperor has a decree: there is a book, and there is no book to retreat!"

"Your Majesty, the ministers have their own music!" Ke Zhengyan, the new prime minister, stepped forward and spoke first.

After Tanglin Guyun ascended the throne, after a period of investigation and selection, a group of loyal and patriotic courtiers with outstanding talents were re-promoted and entrusted with important tasks, hoping to make the Yulin Kingdom long-term stable and prosperous. Ke Zhengyan is as his name suggests, he is upright, and he is the best candidate for prime minister.

And in the selection process, Duanmu Youning played an extremely important role: she inevitably followed in the footsteps of Dongling Luoxi, and let people like Ouyang Xiao who harbored evil intentions blend into the court, she secretly used her eyes to read everyone's memories, and only after making sure that there was no problem would she suggest that Tanglin Guyun stay in the court. Although this move is suspected of peeping at people, for the sake of Yulin Kingdom, she is ready to bear all retribution.

Turning his head to look at him, Tanglin Guyun nodded: "Prime Minister, please speak." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ke Zhengyan bowed down and saluted, "Your Majesty, the ministers have received urgent reports from various places one after another, the drought has become more serious, the crops have not been harvested, and there is not much grain left in the people's homes! If it doesn't rain again, I'm afraid it will be unsustainable!"

Tanglin Guyun frowned: "I also know this, but if it doesn't rain, what can I do?"

Ke Zhengyan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "What do the ministers mean, should the emperor pray for rain to the sky?"

Although Donglin Guyun is in ancient times, he doesn't believe in this kind of thing very much, and his brows are furrowed at the moment: "I heard that people everywhere have already used various ways to worship and pray for rain, but there is no effect, does the prime minister think this method is feasible?"

"The minister thinks it is feasible. Ke Zhengyan nodded, but he really dared to say, "In the history of Yulin Kingdom, there was also such a long drought, and the emperor at that time set up an altar to pray for rain, and a few days later, the sky rained down, and the crisis was immediately resolved! The emperor is the son of heaven, if you set up an altar to pray for rain, the heavens will be able to hear your heart!"

"The minister also thinks that this method is feasible," Yan Peicheng, the new secretary of the Ministry of Rites, stepped forward and echoed casually, "Although the people have also set up altars to pray for rain, after all, they are soft-spoken, and they are not as good as the emperor who is ordered by the sky, and they will definitely be able to make the heavens rain down!"

Tanglin Guyun had no choice but to nod: "In this case, I immediately ordered someone to go and prepare, and three days later, I set up an altar at the Qingling Altar to ask for rain!"

After retiring from the dynasty, Tanglin Guyun went to the "Ningfeng Palace" to ask Min Xinrou for peace. The name of "Ning Feng Palace" also comes from him, hoping that Min Xinrou will be peaceful and peaceful from now on, and will no longer suffer any suffering.

"The sons see the queen mother. ”

Min Xinrou smiled and agreed: "No courtesy, come and sit." ”

Tanglin Guyun sat down in front of her, still frowning. Seeing this, Min Xinrou knew what to expect, and couldn't help but take pity on the corners of his clothes: "Yun'er, are you worried about the drought?"

"Hmm. Donglin Guyun nodded, "Queen Mother, did the son-in-law do something wrong and angered the heavens, so it punished the son-in-law like this?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Min Xinrou scolded lightly, "In the past year since you took the throne, you have been diligent in government and love the people, with clear rewards and punishments, and the government and the opposition have praised each other, saying that you are a good emperor who has not met for a thousand years, which point has you not done well?"

Tanglin Guyun smiled bitterly: "In this case, why does God punish the sons and daughters so much? The drought is so serious, the whole country is in a state of anxiety, and the sons and daughters are really unable to sleep and eat!"

"That's not your fault. Min Xinrou smiled softly and comforted softly, "Natural disaster**, no one can do anything." Although you are known as the son of heaven, you can't control the rain and snow, so you don't have to blame yourself. ”

Tanglin Guyun let out a breath and closed his eyes tiredly: "Ke Zhengyan asked his ministers to set up an altar to pray for rain, and the ministers were very much in favor. ”

Min Xinrou was stunned for a moment, and only sighed slightly after a while: "It's okay, at least ask for psychological comfort." ”

Tanglin Guyun was silent for a long time and didn't say anything. Min Xinrou was distressed and anxious for him, and her heart was uncomfortable for a while. At this time, the maid came to report: "The Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the Imperial Concubine are here to ask for peace." ”

Min Xinrou nodded: "Please let her in." ”

The maid agreed to retreat, and soon walked in with the white dragonfly. Seeing Donglin Guyun, she hurriedly curtsied: "See the Queen Mother!

"Don't be polite, come and sit. Min Xinrou smiled and said, "Dragonfly, look at your happy face, but is there anything good?"

"It's a happy event to go back to the Queen Mother!" Bai Dragonfly said happily, "The concubine just received a letter from Tianli, he said that Yingya has been pregnant for more than two months, and now she has become delicious!"

"Really, it's a great event!" Min Xinrou was overjoyed and genuinely happy for them, "Yingya can spread the branches and leaves for the royal family of the Tianlong Kingdom, and it can be regarded as fulfilling the mission, so that the two countries will be friendly forever!"

The white dragonfly nodded, and then said: "Tianli also said in the letter that after being away for so long, Yingya misses us very much, and misses Youning even more, and asks Youning if there is any good news. ”

The smile on the corner of Min Xinrou's lips condensed slightly, and then smiled softly again: "Youlao is worried about this child, when you reply to the letter, tell her that everything is okay, so that she can raise the baby with peace of mind." ”

The white dragonfly agreed, chatted for a while, and then left. However, because of her words, Min Xinrou was a little unsure, and after holding back from the left and right, she asked carefully: "Yun'er, you and Youning...... Okay?"

Tanglin Guyun was stunned for a moment: "Very good, Queen Mother, why do you ask that?"

Min Xinrou pursed her lips: "Then you...... Still don't want your child to take away your attention?"

Tanglin Guyun understood her point at this time, and couldn't help but smile and shook her head: "Don't worry, the queen mother, Erchen is now the emperor, and he won't be so willful." No matter how important the country of Yulin is, how can Erchen ignore the entire Yulin country for the sake of his own happiness?"
