Chapter 42: Natural Disasters

Ye Chuliang sighed deeply again, "Alas, these people ......"

"Let's not talk about it, anyway, now this mountain is ours, and this water is also ours, I don't believe it, Sister Chu Liang's seeds are paired with this sweet mountain spring, and the food watered will be worse than theirs." Hongshao said confidently.

Ye Chu said with a cold smile: "Yes, let's make our own achievements, one day, we will walk out of this mountain." ”

"That's right, let's go to the county seat to the capital, and go to the front of everyone."

"...... right"

……

The sunny days continued, and every day Ye Fengyang would come early and leave after dark.

He has been cutting bamboo all these times, Ye Fengyang once asked Dongfang Yanhe the reason for cutting bamboo, but Dongfang Yanhe was not stupid, in order to keep a hand, he still didn't tell the other party the truth.

On this day, Ye Fengyang came early again, his face was sweaty, and his face was red.

"The land on this mountain has dried up, and they are thinking again about going up to the mountain to fill the springs." Ye Fengyang said breathlessly.

"Sure enough......," Hong Shao said and rolled his eyes to himself.

Ye Chuliang frowned slightly, "This natural disaster is one after another, why hasn't the imperial court found someone to deal with it?" I don't think there's any money for disaster relief. ”

Ye Fengyang brushed the sweat stains on his forehead, "Could it be that the imperial court still doesn't know?" ”

"Impossible, how can such frequent natural disasters be unknown to the imperial court, unless ......" Ye Chuliang stopped.

Hongshao was shocked in his heart, and immediately asked, "Unless what?" ”

"Unless the whole country is suffering from a natural disaster." Ye Chuliang was upright, "The treasury has no money." ”

Dongfang Yanhe's expression changed slightly, he glanced at Hong Shao's surprised face, then looked at Ye Chuliang again and said, "This is just your idea, we don't know, right?" ”

"The whole country is suffering from natural disasters." Ye Fengyang's face turned pale, "If that's really the case, then wouldn't we ......?"

Hong Shao hurriedly shook his hand, "No, it must not, how can there be natural disasters everywhere in the country that are so big, besides, I helped you find medicine before, but I didn't see disasters everywhere." ”

As soon as Hong Shao finished saying this, Ye Fengyang couldn't help but glance at her.

The moonlight at night is really getting brighter and clearer, there is not a single cloud in the sky, and it seems that tomorrow will be a sunny day.

Hong Shao followed Dongfang Yanhe and stood on the top of the mountain, "Lord, if it is known that all parts of the country are suffering from disasters, then people's hearts must be unstable, and all kinds of demon practitioners will appear." ”

"Yes, and it will give those with ulterior motives a reason to be demons." Dongfang Yanhe said coldly.

"That's right, the previous Lan Ling King and the Wu King, which one didn't use natural disasters to attack the emperor, but they used small natural disasters before, this time the scope is so large, and the time is so long, I'm afraid ......" Hong Shao's face was tangled.

"I understand that he must be having a hard time now." Dongfang Yanhe's eyes dimmed.

"Lord, do you want to go to the capital to test it?" Red Tree asked in a whisper.

Dongfang Yanhe shook his head, "No need, haven't we always kept those two carrier pigeons, and released one for me tonight." ”

"Lord, your identity can't be revealed yet, we haven't found evidence to prove your innocence, and if you appear easily, you will fall into the hands of others." Redshoot nervously took a step forward.

"It's okay, I'm sure she won't betray me." Dongfang Yanhe smiled slightly after speaking.

Hongshao's eyes dimmed, and he nodded helplessly.

……

Ye Chuliang didn't take the matter of natural disasters across the country to heart, after all, it was the most important thing for her to solve the problems in front of her.

In the past few days, villagers have been coming up the mountain to try and sneak around not far from the cave.

Sure enough, Aunt Chang'er's figure also loomed in it.

Although everything on this mountain belongs to her Ye Chuliang and the fool, if it really makes trouble for the villagers, it will be extremely disadvantageous to them.

Just when Ye Chuliang and others were discussing how to solve this problem, Xia Jing appeared.

She had tears on her face, and her two children were also bruised and purple, as if they had been beaten.

As soon as she saw Ye Chuliang, Xia Jing knelt down all of a sudden, and also pulled the two children to kneel down together.

"Sister Chu Liang, please, even if I was not good as a sister in the past, please save them in the face of the children, I beg you......" Xia Jing's head hit the stone on the ground, and soon saw blood stains oozing.

Ye Chuliang didn't look at Xia Jing, but pulled the two children and asked affectionately, "Tell Auntie, who hit the injuries on your body?" ”

"Yes......" The boy seemed to want to say, but after glancing at Xia Jing, he still didn't say it.

"Don't be afraid, tell Auntie, who beat you?" Ye Chuliang pulled the two children with their backs to Xia Jing.

The girl trembled and said, "Yes...... It's our father......"

"He would beat us as soon as he drank." The boy also said tremblingly.

"Sister Chu Liang, please, he wants us to come out to beg for water today, but the only deep well in the village is still the Ma family, and we poor people don't dare to go against them at all, so I can only come to beg you, please, please give us a little water, please." Xia Jing's tears fell like beads with broken threads.

Although Ye Chuliang felt very sorry for the two children, she also knew very well that if this opening was opened, more and more people would come up to the mountain to ask for water in the future, and even the matter of doves occupying the magpie's nest could happen.

Ye Chuliang pulled the two children to sit down on the stone on the side, looked at Xia Jing, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said: "I don't have the final say on this mountain, I think this matter will wait for me to come back and discuss it, if you are relieved, you can leave the two children today and pick them up tomorrow." ”

"No, no, no, they can't stay, otherwise...... Otherwise......" Before Xia Jing finished speaking, she cried loudly.

The boy whispered, "If we don't go back, my father will beat my mother." ”

Ye Chuliang's heart sank, this kind of domestic violence really exists no matter what era it is.

"You're already a man, if your father wants to beat you, you should know how to fight back, since your father can't protect your mother, then you must only protect it, right?" Ye Chuliang pressed his hand on the boy's shoulder and said earnestly.

"But...... His strength was too great. The girl whispered.

Ye Chuliang shook her head slightly and sighed, she looked at Xia Jing and said: "Xia Jing, if you want to change the status quo, either kill him or divorce him, there is no other way, if I were you, I would definitely not keep this kind of man." ”
