Mo Jin stared thoughtfully at the backs of a group of officials in front of him, seeing that all the officials now looked like Ding Xi was looking at the horse, presumably this person must be very favored by the Chu family now, otherwise there would not be so many people touting it.

Since he is favored, the place where he is sent to garrison must be a very important place. But no matter how she looks at this Luzhou, she thinks it's a very ordinary place.

Just as Mo Jin was pondering, Yuan Lie smiled and listened to those officials boasting about their political achievements, and said with a smile: "Then I will be accompanied by Lord Lao today." ”

As soon as everyone heard Yuan Lie say this, they immediately felt that the wine of the past two days had not been drunk in vain, and the gift had not been given in vain.

Ding Xiqian immediately stepped forward happily and flattered: "Since the prince is tired, let's come to inspect another day." ”

The officials echoed in unison.

"Another day?" Yuan Liejian raised his eyebrows, and his voice suddenly became cold as frost, "Can this king say that he won't continue today?" ”

This......

The officials looked at each other, not knowing why this ancestor, who had been smiling, suddenly changed his mind again, but no matter what Yuan Lie wanted to do, they couldn't let him continue to look down, because, in the next place, they were not ready.

"Then, where is the prince going to inspect next?" Ding Xiqian asked cautiously.

"Dingxian." Yuan Liefeng spit out these two words lightly.

This frightened a group of officials, and everyone's faces were as ugly as swallowing flies, because they knew that they couldn't go anywhere to Dingxian.

They looked at Ding Xi with a distress look, and the latter took a deep breath, and was about to say something, only to feel a cold flash.

Everyone was shocked, and the few people who were close were even more frightened and sat down on the ground and peed their pants directly.

I saw that Yuan Lie directly pulled out the sword body of Shang Fang's sword from Qingfeng's hand, and cut off Ding Xiqian's head, the hot blood spurted far away, and the corpse separated from the body convulsed a few times at first, but after a while, it was completely immobile.

This sudden change completely disrupted everyone's position.

Mo Jin was completely coerced, she was not afraid, she just didn't know what Yuan Lie wanted to do when he suddenly came here.

Gently touching Nangong Yu's arm, she said in a low voice: "Senior brother, your revenge, the prince avenged for you." ”

Nangong Yu was completely petrified.

Who can understand that he has been looking for the enemy for more than ten years, and finally found it, and he has also planned many plans to take revenge, but he has not had time to implement it, but he was aggrieved by others who took the lead?!

He has been mixing poison all these days without sleep, just to make a big move when the time comes, who would have thought that Yuan Lie was so willful that he would cut people without negotiation!

At this moment, Nangong Yu felt a great emptiness and powerlessness, he didn't know whether he should cry or laugh at this time, he only felt that he might be the most tragic revenge in history.

Mo Jin glanced at him sympathetically, shook his head, and returned to his carriage, Nangong Yu, who had suffered such a major blow, needed a lot of alone time to calm down.

Before and after killing Ding Xi, Yuan Lie didn't even frown, he just stared coldly at the group of corrupt officials who were eating vegetarian food and careless about people's lives, with murderous intent brewing in his eyes.

"Who else wants to organize this king to go to Dingxian, stand up." Blood was still dripping from the tip of the sword, and Yuan Lie at this time was like a Shura from hell.

"Wang ...... Lord Wang, Lord Ding is the distant cousin of the queen's mother, if you kill him like this, aren't you afraid of offending the queen and the Chu family? One of the officials said in a trembling voice.

Yuan Lie smiled, pointed the tip of Shang Fang's sword in his hand at the official who spoke, and asked, "Then what do you say the emperor gave this sword to this king?" ”

Now, as if the official had let it go, he simply replied with a stiff neck: "But there should always be a reason for killing, how can there be a person like you who doesn't ask questions and directly cuts people when you come up!" ”

As if he had heard some funny joke, Yuan Lie raised his eyebrows, raised his hand at the breeze, and said: Want a reason? Okay, then the king will give it to you! ”

As soon as the words fell, Qingfeng didn't know where to take out a stack of blue-covered ledgers and respectfully handed them to Yuan Lie.

"These ledgers were all dug out in the secret room of Ding Xi's former study, which recorded all kinds of evidence of his bribery, corruption, and betrayal of official positions over the years," after a pause, Yuan Lie's voice sank, "Of course, there are also transactions with your lords. ”

Hearing Yuan Yeol say this, many officials on the spot turned white and pointed at him, "You...... You ...... for a long time, and you didn't say why.

They thought that these few days of Yuan Yeol had completely sunk into the comfort zone they had created, and they also thought that after receiving all kinds of gifts from them, Yuan Yeol would unite with them from now on.

Unexpectedly, he has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he is secretly investigating these things under the pretext of eating, drinking, and having fun.

"Are you all stupid for this king?" Yuan Lie said sarcastically, "The dam that was washed away by the flood is in Dingxian and even the towns after Dingxian, but you waste, but you wastes are taking this king around in circles where there is no disaster at all, I want to ask you, who gave you the confidence that you think you can hide from the world?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, who else could there be, Ding Xiqian and Chu Jiabei!

But despite this, Dingxian still can't go!

There are also officials who come out with good words to persuade him, hoping that Yuan Lie can change his course or move forward on a later day, of course, none of them will end up in the same place as Ding Xiqian, and their heads will be different.

It wasn't until this time that everyone understood that Yuan Yeol was coming for real. It was only then that they remembered that this person was a ghost king who killed people without blinking.

All in all, Yuan Lie's move to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger and kill the chicken and set an example for the monkey received excellent results, and no one dared to stop him immediately.

At the same time, a group of 2,000 men and horses, secretly seconded by his grandfather from his grandfather's old ministry on the eastern seaboard, also hurried in and sent all the officials who were unwilling to cooperate to the prison.

divided 1,000 people to guard Luzhou City, and the remaining 1,000 people followed him to Dingxian.

In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

"Lord, according to Lan Haiguo's resume, if you transfer troops without the emperor's permission, your crime should be punished" On the carriage, Mo Jin reminded without saltiness.

Yuan Yeol sneered, "It's good that no one says no." ”

Mo Jin: "......"

How could no one say anything like this?! Even if his grandfather's old ministry doesn't talk about it, won't the emperor himself have eyeliner?! No matter how bad it is, the Chu family has planted such a big heel, so if you can't catch Yuan Lie's handle, you have to bite off a piece of meat, otherwise how can you swallow this breath?

Yuan Lie understood what Mo Jin meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, princess, the Chu family doesn't dare to say it." ”

At this time, Mo Jin really didn't understand.

Two hours later, everyone finally arrived at a hill in Dingxian County, and then they were deeply shocked by what they saw in front of them.

If Luzhou City is a peaceful and happy town, then Dingxian is a cruel and inhumane purgatory on earth.

Hundreds of thousands of people living along the river downstream have been devastated after the previous heavy rains have breached the upper dams, and although the flood water is receding by this time, as far as the eye can see, all the houses have been destroyed, and the corpses of pigs, cows, sheep and even people have drifted over the river from time to time.

The most infuriating thing is that the disaster here was struck, and the first thing that local officials thought of was not disaster relief, but a large number of soldiers and horses were dispatched to block the road to Luzhou City in the west, and the living victims were not allowed to leave the local area for half a step.

And, in order to prevent the people from resisting, they even killed all the young and strong men and dumped their bodies in Hanoi.

The people's homes were flooded, and the land was also flooded, and they had no food to eat, no shelter, and they could only dig wild vegetables to feed their stomachs.

But what about the wild vegetables after they are eaten?

In fact, more than a month has passed since the disaster was struck here, and not a single cent of the relief food and relief money issued by the imperial court have reached the victims. After gnawing the roots of the wild herbs, the people here either choose to eat the seeds or starve to death.

What is Hell? That's it.

Before this, Mo Jin also came here to practice medicine and save people with the mentality of playing soy sauce, but when she witnessed these tragic situations with her own eyes, she clenched her fists, trembled with anger, and kept saying: "Beasts, these beasts!" ”

She scolded the corrupt officials who had completely lost their humanity.

What kind of hard-hearted heart can be indifferent to watch these people die in front of them? When this group of people are hungry and can only exchange children to eat, that group of officials eat and drink spicy food at home, extremely luxurious, how dare they?!

Yuan Lie gently patted her on the back to calm her down, and then ordered the soldiers he brought to execute the officers and soldiers guarding Dingxian on the spot, leaving no one behind.

The moment they entered Dingxian, the people fled in all directions shouting madly, thinking that these officers and soldiers were coming to slaughter them again.

But anyone who has the slightest humanity will not be indifferent when he sees this kind of scene.

Mo Jin was furious, grabbed the collar of an official who was close, and asked sharply, "Why did you do this?" ”

The officials didn't expect this princess, who looked powerless and even a little ugly, with so much strength, and seemed to be a practitioner, so she immediately had leg and stomach cramps, and knelt on the ground with a "poof", and wailed: "It's all in front of Ding Xi, it's all in front of Ding Xi, it's because he saw that the disaster couldn't be saved, so he simply didn't save it, and if he said that he saved it, it would be in vain, and it would affect his political performance at that time." ”

"Whew!" Mo Jin kicked him hard in the chest, knocking him directly to the ground, and the official lay on the ground and kept rubbing the sore spot, obviously in great pain.

These scumbags, when they share the money and spoils, they praise each other's stinky feet, and when something goes wrong, they try their best to shirk responsibility.

"Lord Wang, what should I do next?" Mo Jin turned to look at Yuan Lie and asked anxiously.

It was only then that she realized that her strength was so small, she didn't know how to treat water, and she didn't know how to deal with such an emergency, except for knowing a little medicine, she felt that she was simply useless.

Won Yeol gave her a reassuring look, and then loudly announced the next disaster relief process.

First of all, send some people to evacuate the people to the high ground, because depending on the weather, there may be heavy rain coming. Next, the counties and towns along the way were ordered to open warehouses to release grain and provide relief to the victims, and finally, Mo Jin and Nangong Yu were responsible for setting up a medical team to treat the injured and sick victims.

As soon as the announcement was over, many officials who came with him knelt on the ground.

Yuan Lie looked at them with cold eyes, and said quietly: "Ladies and gentlemen, what is this for?" ”

The officials grabbed the ground with their heads and cried: "Back to the prince, it's not that we don't want to open a warehouse to release grain, but this grain, there is really no one!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked, but Yuan Lie seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and said coldly: "The imperial court has released hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, how can it be said that there is no such thing?" ”

All the officials were speechless, but one bold official said: "Lord Qiqi, the transportation of grain and grass has always been in charge of Ding Xiqian, let alone seeing grain, we haven't even seen a chaff!" ”

Yuan Lie's eyes became more and more gloomy, and he said coldly: "Then there is no grain reserve in each county?" ”

"I didn't ...... No, they were all transported away by Ding Xiqian. The officer replied with a craned neck.

"Good! Good! Good! Yuan Lie laughed angrily after saying three good things in a row, and actually arched his hand to the officials, "I have already sent someone to take care of your lords' families, so the next matter of finding food will be entrusted to your lords, if each person can't transport 5,000 catties of grain in a day, don't blame this king for being ruthless." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, and immediately a secret guard presented a lot of things, including incense sachets, jade pendants, golden hairpins, and children's longevity locks.

The officials were shocked when they saw this, they never dreamed that in just two days, the masked man in front of them would actually probe all their home addresses, and the things held by those secret guards were clearly the personal belongings of their wives and mothers.

No, everyone had to go in search of food.

Fortunately, Yuan Lie and his entourage had already prepared when they set off from Luzhou City and brought hundreds of catties of grain, so they set up a shed on the mountain, set up a big cauldron, and began to boil porridge.

The aroma of food soon spread to every corner of Dingxian, and the common people, who were originally hiding and did not dare to come out, came out one after another, and under the guidance of the officers and soldiers and Yan Yuese, they were finally willing to go up the mountain.

The previous officers and soldiers were afraid that allowing them to move freely would allow the group of refugees to flee in all directions, so they confined them to a fixed place, and after the people were freed, even if they could not eat enough porridge, they could go elsewhere to dig wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger.

Mo Jin and Nangong Yu did not stop treating the people's injuries and seeing a doctor for a moment.

Soon, the originally messy scene gradually became orderly after their guidance.

The people finally let down their guard, believing that the people who came this time were sincere in saving them.

In the afternoon of the next day, most of the officials who had gone out to look for food returned with food, and a small number of them were nowhere to be found.

At this time, food was also available, the people were properly resettled, and the victims of other disaster-stricken counties and towns also rushed to Dingxian County, making a strong contribution and starting to deal with the flood together with the officers and soldiers.

During that time, whether it was Yuan Lie or Mo Jin, basically did not close their eyes, the former led people to build dikes, change the river, divert water to low-lying places, or simply artificially create lakes, and at the same time migrate people, so busy that their feet do not touch the ground, Mo Jin is in the influx of a large number of victims, in order to cure the injured and sick as soon as possible, and prevent the outbreak of the plague, almost no rest, more than half a month later, finally the results are beginning to show.

Nowadays, the people know that the person who took the lead in controlling the water and killing corrupt officials is the current Yi Wangye, and the one who wears a veil to treat people is Princess Yi. In a short period of time, the reputation of the two spread all over Luzhou.

The clouds were thick, the thunder god was rolling, and it seemed that there was another rainstorm.

"Princess, princess," a little girl with pigtails cried and ran, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, crying and shouting, "save my father, please save my father." ”

Mo Jin, who finally ate a bite of food, quickly put down his chopsticks, helped the little girl up, wiped away her tears, and asked softly: "What's wrong, don't cry, don't cry, say slowly." ”

The little girl pointed to the newly repaired embankment not far behind her, and cried: "My father said that he wanted to catch fish for me to eat, but he was bitten by a water snake, and now he fainted on the embankment, please beg my mother to save him." ”

"Okay!" Mo Jin picked up the medicine box and followed the little girl to the embankment without saying a word.

Sure enough, I saw a scrawny man faint on the embankment.

Mo Jin asked the two officers and soldiers to drag the man to the shore and began to bleed and detoxify him, the little girl squatted beside her with teary eyes, and asked cautiously: "Niangniang, is my father okay?" ”

Mo Jin smiled and said softly: "It's okay, don't worry." ”

When the little girl heard this, she was extremely happy and thanked her again and again. When she turned around, she saw that her father's fish basket was still on the embankment, and she took a step towards the embankment, ready to pick up his father's fish basket.

All eyes were on the unconscious man, and no one noticed that the little girl had gone up the embankment again.

A dazzling flash of lightning flashed, and the torrential rain came instantly.

The cold rain crackled down, and Mo Jin, who had just bandaged the man's wounds, realized that it was raining again.

Asked the officers and soldiers to carry the man to the thatched hut quickly, she turned around and was about to take the little girl back with her, however, there was no one behind her.

Thinking that the little girl saw the rain and went back first, Mo Jin also stood up and was about to go back, when suddenly, he heard a weak and trembling cry for help: "Princess Niangniang, help me, I'm so scared." ”

Mo Jin looked at the source of the sound suddenly, and saw the little girl holding the fish basket and standing in the middle of the embankment with a panicked expression.

The rain fell quickly and urgently, and the embankment was made of boulders mined on the mountain, and because it was urgent, there were no non-slip grooves carved on it, so it would become slippery when it encountered water, and it was easy for people to fall when they stepped on it.

Seeing that the flood was about to overflow the embankment, the little girl's life would be in danger at any time, and Mo Jin didn't care about anything else, so he put down the medicine box and walked towards the little girl.

"Little girl, don't be afraid, don't move, I'll come to your rescue right away." Mo Jin comforted the little girl, while carefully moving her steps, beware of slipping on the soles of her feet, as long as she didn't pay attention, she would fall into the river more than ten meters deep behind her, so she couldn't help but care.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the raindrops were hurting on his skin, cold and icy, and Mo Jin felt that he would be knocked down by the rain at any moment.

At the same time, Yuan Lie, who had led people to inspect the construction of water conservancy facilities in various places, also came back in the torrential rain, and as soon as he walked into the hut, the guards hurriedly handed him a dry handkerchief.

Yuan Lie took it, saw the half-eaten porridge on the table, and casually asked the officers and soldiers who were carrying the man in beside him, "Where is the princess?" ”

The officers and soldiers immediately saluted respectfully and replied, "The princess is behind, come in immediately." ”

Raising his eyes to see the increasingly rapid rainstorm, Yuan Lie nodded, took the oil-paper umbrella from the guard's hand, and said, "This king is going to take a look, you don't need to follow." ”

Who knows, this look almost scared Yuan Lie's soul away.

In the middle of the embankment, there was a little girl crying, the flood had obviously overflowed the embankment, and it was rising higher and higher.

No matter how good her cultivation is, Yuan Lie can't help but want to burst into foul language, where is she going to save people, this is to kill people!

Throwing away the oil-paper umbrella, Won Yeol tapped his toes and swept towards the two people on the embankment.

It just so happened that Qingfeng also came back from outside at this time, and when he saw Yuan Lie's movements, he immediately stepped forward.

Mo Jin had already walked very carefully, seeing that the water was getting more and more turbulent, although she was extremely scared in her heart, she still kept comforting the little girl, "Little girl, don't be afraid, if you are really scared, close your eyes, I will be there soon, ah!" ”

A torrent slammed in, Mo Jin's feet slipped, and he went straight to the river, leaving only an exclamation.

Yuan Yeol didn't have time to hurry up, and without thinking about it, he plunged into the river.

"Lord Wang!" "Princess!" Light Breeze and the little girl shouted in unison.

"Take her away and leave me alone!" Yuan Lie shouted at the breeze and chased after Mo Jin, who was swept away by the flood.

The light wind couldn't, so he had to carry the little girl ashore first, and then turned around and tried to save people, but in the turbulent river, where were there still people.

Mo Jin is a landlubber, in the previous life, and in this life.

The overwhelming stream of water poured through her mouth, nose and ears, stinging her lungs, and she thought that this time she was afraid that she would really live to the end.

It's just that I don't know if that little girl can be saved.

Also, will that handsome and miserable man be sad if he knows that she is dead.

She still has a lot of delicious food that she hasn't eaten, she hasn't seen fun things, and some of them are unwilling.

……

Between the ups and downs, she completely lost consciousness.

Before closing his eyes, Mo Jin thought that he should miss Yuan Lie very much, otherwise why would he die and all that appeared in front of him was his mask?

When she opened her eyes again, Mo Jin saw that she seemed to be lying in a cave, and under her body it seemed to be a dry straw, not at all awkward, as soon as she moved, it made a rattling sound, not far away, there should be a fire burning, and she was very warm when she roasted.
