Chapter 36: The Flood

In the court, Mo Zhengfeng discussed disaster relief with the ministers.

"Which Aiqing has good advice for Hindu water? The food and daily necessities distributed by the imperial court for disaster relief were only a temporary relief for the people, and now the problem of flooding should be quickly solved so that the houses would not be washed away and the people would be displaced. ”

Mo Zhengfeng looked at the ministers who were talking to each other in the court, and no one stood up to speak for a while, so he was inevitably a little displeased, "There are so many ministers, can none of them solve problems for me?" ”

At this time, Lian Xingen stood up and said: "The old minister thinks that it is better to Xuan Shi Wang Ye to meet, the last Nanyang drought, the plan of the Ten Wang Ye is a good solution to the hardship brought by the drought to the local people for many years, and this time the Xingdu flood, the Ten Wang Ye will definitely have a good solution." ”

As soon as Lian Xing'en's words fell, the prince Liang Shangguo stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it is appropriate to hand over this matter to the prince, the last Nanyang drought, although the tenth prince gave a solution, but the prince's contribution cannot be ignored. ”

Mo Zhengfeng could hear that Lian Xingen and Liang Shangguo were planning for their son-in-law, and they didn't speak when they went on the expedition, and this kind of disaster relief was scrambling. "What the two Aiqing said is reasonable, it is better to announce the crown prince and the tenth prince tomorrow and discuss it in the court."

Taishi Mansion, as soon as Liang Shangguo entered the gate of the mansion after going down to court, Liang Biyu greeted him, "Father is back." ”

"Well, when did Yu'er come back?"

"I want to come and have nothing to do, I haven't seen my father for a few days, so I'll come back to see my father," Liang Biyu said as she followed Liang Shangguo to the front hall.

Liang Shangguo suddenly remembered what happened in the court today, "Yu'er, go back and discuss disaster relief with the prince, today I recommended the prince to the court for my father, I can't be pressed by the ten princes in everything, how can the prince not act?" ”

Liang Biyu said gently: "Father, don't worry, my daughter will go back to discuss with her husband." ”

In the Prince's Mansion, Mo Yuxiao and Liang Biyu discussed state affairs while drinking tea, as if they were in love.

"Husband, this time my father recommended you in front of my father, and I heard that it rained in Hindu for a month, and the people were all affected."

Mo Yuxiao frowned and thought for a while and said, "I have also been thinking hard for a night, but I have thought of some feasible methods, wait for me to write a good book tonight, and present it to my father tomorrow." ”

Liang Biyu smiled and nodded, and casually poured another cup of tea for Mo Yuxiao.

In the palace, Mo Chenyu was also preparing a backup plan to deal with the flood, but he didn't want to submit it to Mo Zhengfeng, he believed that Mo Yuxiao would also be able to think of a reasonable plan to solve the flood.

In the court, Mo Zhengfeng took a closer look at the twists and turns presented by Mo Yuxiao, and felt that although the plan was not perfect, it was not without merit, "The plan given by the prince this time is to take the method of cleaning up the river and digging ditches to control the flood, dig the mountain, and channel the direction of the flood, although these methods are feasible, they are time-consuming and labor-intensive," he looked at Mo Chenyu who was silent below, "What good plan does Yu'er have?" ”

Mo Chenyu stood up and replied, "Back to my father, my sons don't have any good plans, my sons feel that the eldest brother's plan is very feasible, floods have always been time-consuming and labor-intensive, this is an inevitable process, and sons are willing to help the eldest emperor brother deal with the floods." Even if there is a good plan, he doesn't want to say it in the court, so that Mo Yuxiao will not be able to step down.

Mo Zhengfeng nodded, he knew that Mo Chenyu was just modest and didn't want to have trouble between brothers, "Then this time the flood will send the crown prince and the tenth prince to go." ”

After going down, Mo Chenyu was just about to return home, but was stopped by Mo Yuxiao, who hurried behind him, "Tenth brother stay." ”

"Brother Emperor."

"I know that the tenth brother has a better solution, why don't you bring it up in front of my father?"

"Brother Emperor has been thinking too much, and the younger brother is not a better plan, just some small details for the people to consider, and this can be discussed on the way we go to deal with the flood."

Mo Yuxiao looked at the humble Mo Chenyu in front of him, and there was a trace of sadness in his heart, since when did his tenth brother no longer speak to him openly, maybe it was the moment he was named the crown prince, he didn't want to alienate his siblings for power and profit, but if he didn't fight, he would let people eat meat, there were many princes, there was no shortage of outstanding people, so he could only dare not relax for a moment.

"Brother Emperor, my brother has retired first," Mo Chenyu's voice pulled Mo Yuxiao back from his thoughts.

As soon as Mo Chenyu returned to the palace, the housekeeper came up to report, "Lord Wang, the fourth prince has been in the mansion for a while, and now he is in the Flower Dance Pavilion." ”

Mo Chenyu hurriedly rushed to the Flower Dance Pavilion when he heard the news, if it wasn't what he expected, Su Yingxue must also be in the Flower Dance Pavilion.

In the Flower Dance Pavilion, Su Yingxue and Mo Jinxuan were drinking tea, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her slender and white arms, she felt that the sleeves were wide and long, it was not convenient to drink tea at all, and it was more convenient to pull them up. As a person who has traveled through modern times, she is informal, this ancient person is very troublesome to dress, she has not adapted to it for a while, but she is a little embarrassed when she looks at Mo Jinxuan staring at her.

Mo Jinxuan looked at Su Yingxue's informal temperament, not only did she not feel disgusted, but she actually felt extremely interesting and appreciative, "The fourth brother of the younger brother and sister is very appreciative, and he can do whatever he wants in front of the fourth brother." ”

Su Yingxue reached out and patted Mo Jinxuan's shoulder and said, "Fourth brother is refreshing,"

Mo Jinxuan glanced at the slender hand on his shoulder and showed an evil smile.

Mo Chenyu happened to see the scene in front of him, and his face immediately became gloomy, "The princess is presumptuous, what kind of body do you look like this?" ”

"Fourth brother," Mo Chenyu saluted to Mo Jinxuan.

Su Yingxue was startled by Mo Chenyu's scolding, she withdrew her hand, pulled down her sleeve, and just after doing a series of actions, she thought about it, no, why should I be afraid of Mo Chenyu, is it that I subconsciously care about my image in his mind? Why should I care about how I look in his mind? Then she rolled up her sleeves unconvinced, and looked at Mo Chenyu with her big watery eyes.

Mo Chenyu glared at Su Yingxue, "Like smoke, open the doors and windows, the princess is estimated to be hot." ”

Mo Jinxuan smiled silently and continued to drink tea.

"Yes, Lord Wang," Ruyan had just opened the door and window, and a gust of cold wind hit through the window, Su Yingxue shivered, so she had to put down her sleeves again, thinking in her heart, even if you are ruthless, her eyes rolled her eyes at Mo Chenyu.

"I don't know if the fourth brother came to the house because of something?" Mo Chenyu asked.

"The fourth brother has nothing to do, so he wants to come to the tenth brother's mansion for a walk, unlike the tenth brother, you, who worry about state affairs all day long, naturally you don't have the fourth brother to come freely." Mo Jinxuan tidied up his dark green robe, and he couldn't see anything strange.

Mo Chenyu had a cold expression on his face, and said with a long sigh: "I have never envied the fourth brother's free and easy, when one day, the mountains and rivers are splendid, I will definitely take off my gorgeous clothes and live a life like idle clouds and wild cranes." With that, he picked up a cup of tea and drank it down.

Mo Jinxuan smiled and said, "When the time comes, you must bring the fourth brother." ”

Mo Chenyu glanced at Mo Jinxuan and showed a faint smile.

Su Yingxue saw that the two of them were very bored with each other's greetings, so she remembered an interesting game, "I said that you two are boring or not?" I have a game in mind, do you want to play it? ”

Mo Chenyu didn't want to play any games with Su Yingxue, but Mo Jinxuan was very curious, "Oh! What fun game does the younger sibling come up with? Why don't you tell us about it? ”

Su Yingxue flashed her big eyes and said, "Truth or dare." ”

The first time Mo Jinxuan heard that there was such a game, "What is Truth or Dare?" ”

Su Yingxue picked up all the things on the coffee table to the ground and vacated the coffee table, "Now you need to find something that can turn." She thought for a moment, as if Mo Chenyu was wearing a knife around her waist. Thinking of this, she took out the knife on Mo Chenyu's waist, and there was a ruby in the middle of the knife.

Mo Chenyu looked at Su Yingxue in astonishment.

"Oops! Don't be so stingy, right? I'll give it back to you when it's gone. Su Yingxue spun the knife on the coffee table, "Whoever the handle of this knife is aimed at will have to choose truth or dare." ”

Looking at Mo Jinxuan's puzzled eyes, Su Yingxue explained again, "If the handle of the knife is facing you, you can choose the truth, you can answer whatever we ask, you can't lie, if you don't want to tell the truth, you can also take a big risk, and the big risk is what we tell you to do." ”

Mo Jinxuan thought for a moment, it seemed to be an ordinary game, how could he feel like he was going to show his bottom at any time, "Brother and sister, the fourth brother has never played this game, and the younger brother and sister must rely on the fourth brother." ”

Su Yingxue smiled and said, "That's nature. In fact, she just wanted to fix Mo Chenyu.

Mo Chenyu listened to Su Yingxue talk about the rules of the game, and didn't want to mess around with her, so he got up and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Su Yingxue.

"Why are you going?"

"This king doesn't want to play such a childish game with you."

Mo Jinxuan thought for a while and said: "Brother and sister, if you don't stop the game first, and play again next time, I am afraid that the tenth brother has some secrets in his heart that he doesn't want people to know, and I also have secrets that I don't want people to know, don't my brothers and sisters have them?" Wouldn't it be embarrassing to be exposed when the time comes? ”

Su Yingxue thought about it, and the ancients were conservative, so they must not be able to play such a fashionable and exciting game, "Yes, then we don't ask questions, we drink, whoever the hilt of the sword is aimed at, whoever drinks, like smoke, go and prepare wine and food." ”

"This is a very good idea, fourth brother, I am rarely so happy, does the tenth brother want to sweep away the interest of the fourth brother?"

Mo Chenyu sat down again, of course he didn't want Su Yingxue to drink again, remembering Su Yingxue's drunken appearance last time, he was scared when he thought about it, but he didn't want to sweep Mo Jinxuan's interest, so he had to accompany him.
