"Mrs. Zhao, I have already inquired, Lord Zhao is in the west of Yucheng, and there is still a flood over there, are we in the past?"

Lu Xiaoyao and the guards have arrived in Yucheng, because it has rained for a long time, the whole Yucheng looks dirty and messy, some of the villagers who have withdrawn from the west are also placed in the city, and there are some people lying on the corridor under the street.

It is said that some villages in the west of Yucheng have been flooded with mud and rocks, and the entire village has been submerged, and now Zhao Guanlan is also fighting the flood and disaster relief on the western front, Lu Xiaoyao thought about it and nodded obligedly.

She wanted to go over and fight with Zhao Guanlan.

Seeing Lu Xiaoyao nodded, the guard was a little worried, raised his head and looked at the sky and said, "Madam, it looks like it's going to rain, the rain in Yucheng will rain as soon as it is said, and it is not safe for us to go over in the dark light, so let's wait until tomorrow." ”

The guards are worried that the situation in the western part of Yucheng is unknown, and the black lights are blind in the past, in case of a mudslide, in case it starts to rain again, then they will be in danger.

The guards are all from Duanwangfu, Lu Xiaoyao cured Jincheng, and the people of Duanwangfu naturally regarded her as a benefactor, so they were very respectful to her.

Hearing the guard's words, Lu Xiaoyao looked up at the black sky, thinking that everyone had been running all the way, and it was indeed hard, and finally nodded after thinking about it.

"That's okay, since we're here, I'm not in a hurry, let's go over tomorrow and find a place to settle first."

The guard nodded, and quickly took Lu Xiaoyao to find a place to settle.

The inns in Yucheng are now deserted, because no outsiders came to the flood, so there was no business at all, and Lu Xiaoyao and they also successfully stayed in the inn.

"Are you strangers?"

Xiao Er is a talkative person, and when he brought them food to Lu Xiaoyao, he chatted with them on the side.

Lu Xiaoyao wanted to know about the front line from Xiao Er, so he chatted with him, nodded to Xiao Er, Lu Xiaoyao said, "We came here on purpose, my husband came here to control the water, so let's take a look at the situation." ”

Lu Xiaoyao didn't hide it, the people who came here to control the water were all court officials, and when he heard Lu Xiaoyao's words, Xiao Er said excitedly, "Then it must be His Royal Highness the Prince's people, they are all on the front line." ”

Listening to Xiao Er's tone, Lu Xiaoyao knew that the people in Yucheng had a good evaluation of His Royal Highness the Prince, and continued to chat with Xiao Er, Lu Xiaoyao knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so respected by the people here.

The flood in Yucheng has been a matter for many years, every year the imperial court will send people to control the water, and the treasury will also allocate silver taels to relieve the disaster, but in previous years, the silver taels for disaster relief could not reach the hands of the people at all, so the people of Yucheng had a very difficult time, and the decline here was also year by year.

But since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intervened in the management of Yucheng this year, these situations have changed, first the disaster relief silver has reached the hands of the people one after another, and then pulled out a few corrupt officials who only take silver and do not do things, and then personally brought people here to control the water.

The reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince respects the people of Yucheng is because he personally came here, I heard that after His Royal Highness the Prince came here, almost all of them were taking the officials under him to fight the flood in the west, regardless of the official position, they were all on the front line, which made the people of Yucheng feel particularly relieved.

Listening to Xiao Er chattering about His Royal Highness the Prince, it seemed that he didn't know about His Royal Highness the Prince's injury and leaving, Lu Xiaoyao continued to probe.

"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still here?"

Xiao Er's words were interrupted by Lu Xiaoyao, and his casual gaze dimmed, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was injured in an assassination, and now he lives in Feiyun Villa to recuperate. ”

It seems that they all know about His Royal Highness the Prince's injury, but the people here can't believe it.

As soon as Lu Xiaoyao thought so, Xiao Er over there gritted his teeth and said, "It must be the person who is too guarded by Yucheng, after the dog official escaped, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated, and it must have been done by the dog official." ”

Yucheng Taishou is also the largest official in the territory of Yucheng, several counties in Yucheng are under his control, most of the silver allocated by the imperial court is in his pocket, and the rest is into the pockets of those people sent by the imperial court.

Yucheng is too corrupt and bribery, careless of human life, has long been hated by the people here, after His Royal Highness the Prince came here, countless people jointly impeached him, but the old thing is cunning and cunning, pulled a person out to confess, and he himself fled with his family when His Royal Highness the Prince investigated.

Soon after the dog officer fled, he heard about the assassination of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so everyone was almost certain that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was assassinated by the dog official.

Hearing Xiao Er's guess, Lu Xiaoyao didn't make a sound, and after eating something, he went back to the guest room directly.

It's already midnight, Zhao Guanlan hasn't seen it yet, and Jin Cheng doesn't know what happened.

"Bang Bang ......"

The thunder sounded, the crackling rain also sounded quickly, and it rained again in Yucheng.

Lu Xiaoyao just lay down, suddenly heard the voice, and was so shocked that he rolled over from the bed, the prince was still on the road, such a heavy rain......

"Master, it's raining, what should I do?"

After Lu Xiaoyao left, Jin Cheng and Si Meng also walked forward for a while, but the carriage was stuck in the dirt and couldn't get out, and the horses were struggling to the extreme, so they could say that it was still difficult to move an inch.

Jin Cheng had been on the road for a while, and his body really couldn't stand the rush anymore, so he and Si Meng found a place to stop, but not long after they sat down to rest, thunder sounded in the sky.

The sporadic raindrops hit his body, and Simon was shocked and hurriedly got up.

Jin Cheng's eyes also cooled, and he also got up from the stone, and said with an ugly face, "The rain in this Yucheng is really going to fall." ”

Frowning, Jin Cheng looked around, and suddenly saw a little bright light blooming on the hillside in the distance, as if there was a house.

"Simon, quick, let's go over there." Jin Cheng stretched out his finger, and at this time, Si Meng also saw the glimmer of light in the distance, and his face showed a touch of surprise, and he hurriedly helped Jin Cheng to run up the slope.

"Ahem..."

There was a coughing sound from the dilapidated thatched hut, and then a worried female voice sounded.

"Mother, it's raining again." It's raining again, and the people of Yucheng are going to suffer again.

The woman's eyes suddenly turned red, the people were suffering, her father was still alive and dead, and the dog officials in the court were eating one by one with their mouths full of oil, ignoring the lives of the people, Yucheng was really difficult!

"Ahem... Cher, don't worry, you, your dad will, will be fine. ”

He Chen's eye sockets were sunken, the corners of his lips were purple, and she looked terminally ill at first glance, but at this time, she didn't care about her own safety, but was worried about her only daughter.
