Cui Shi covered her mouth and looked shocked after hearing this, but she was stupid and wouldn't say anything comforting, and finally just looked at Yuan Xuan sympathetically, and nodded dryly.

The people in the village who went to inquire about the news came back one after another, but the news they brought back was worse than the other, and Yuan Xun was even a little afraid to listen to it.

When she learned that the county seat was buried, she was extremely desperate, but as long as she didn't get the exact news, she wouldn't give up, she didn't dare to give up, and she couldn't give up!

Yuan Xun washed his face with tears every night, but pretended to be indifferent during the day, after all, life has to go on.

When it was almost dark on the seventh day of the new year, Zheng Haihua's maid Zhuzhu came to tell Yuan Xuan that the heat on her young lady had subsided.

Seeing that Yuan Xuan didn't react, at the end of the day, she added with an embarrassed face: "My young lady is already sober and wants to eat something tasteful, madam, see if you can ...... it."

Yuan Xuan looked at his mother-in-law quietly, and saw that she was drinking the noodle soup in the bowl absentmindedly with her head down, so she glanced at Cui's family.

Cui Shi nodded imperceptibly when he saw it, and immediately turned to sit sideways, blocking Wei's mother's view.

Yuan Xuan raised his head and glanced at Zhuzhu lightly, got up and wiped his mouth and said to Wei's mother: "Mother, then I'll go and see her, you can eat some more." ”

After Wei Mu mumbled a "hmm", she left the table and looked at Zhuzhu and raised her chin slightly, signaling her to lead the way.

Zhuzhu noticed that she was in a bad mood, blessed her body with a smile, and led her to Cui's room with small steps.

Zheng Haihua had really woken up, and at this time she was frowning and half sitting and half leaning on the head of the bed, pulling the clothes on her body with a tangled face.

Half of the bowl of noodle soup on the bedside was spilled on the ground, and Yuan Xuan guessed in his heart that this girl should have deliberately spilled it because she was not used to eating coarse tea and light rice in the countryside.

She closed the door with her hand, took a chair and sat on the edge of the bed and said expressionlessly: "Put away your eldest lady's temper, what you dislike now may be undesirable for you in the future!" ”

Zheng Haihua glanced at her disdainfully, and said with a sneer: "Wei Pei, do you know what you are talking nonsense about?" Miss Ben would ask for these things? Hmph, it's a big joke! ”

Yuan Xuan didn't care about her attitude at this time, because what she was going to say next would definitely make the girl feel like she was slapped in the face.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, held back the grief in her heart and looked directly into her eyes and said, "Beiqi Mountain was washed down by the heavy rain a few days ago, and the road leading to the county was blocked, and you can't go back." ”

After saying that, she still couldn't hold back after all, and tears dripped from her eyes and fell to her chest.

Zheng Haihua saw that her expression didn't seem to be fake, so she stopped pulling her clothes, looked at Yuan Xuan in a panic and said, "Beiqi Mountain was washed away?" Wei Pei, you are not allowed to lie to me, if you dare to deceive Miss Ben, Miss Ben will want your life! ”

Yuan Xuan thought about Wei Wei's voice and smile in his heart, and choked up and shouted at her: "What am I lying to you for?" My husband is also in the county, will I make fun of this? I wish it was fake, but I can't escape reality! ”

Zheng Haihua was stunned for a long time with red eyes after listening, and finally said sadly: "Then when exactly is this?" Can you tell me how serious the situation is? ”

"The person who inquired about the news said that it was the night after the heavy rain, and the specific time was around the fourth watch." Yuan Xuan wiped his tears and said.

Zheng Haihua covered his mouth as if he couldn't believe it, and then asked without giving up: "What about the people in the county?" Did you transfer it out? Did the government and the surrounding county government send people to help? ”

Yuan Xuan's tears burst out of his eyes again, and he shook his head when he looked at her and said: "Most of the county seat is buried, and even if there are people inside, they can't get out, and the news can't be found."

The imperial court has not sent people yet, and the government and the surrounding county government have only sent a few people sporadically, which cannot help much. ”

After telling her something else she knew, Yuan Xuan bit her lip and asked Zheng Haihua: "Can you please tell me the truth, are you very familiar with my husband?" When was the last time you saw my husband, and is he okay? ”

Thinking of the man who was as cold as an iceberg, Zheng Haihua shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Actually, I have only met your husband twice, and the first time we met was on the day he took office, I pretended to be a man and followed my father with my brothers to meet him.

The second time we met, the morning before I came, I saw him off with his father and brother......"

Her words suddenly paused, shaking Yuan Xuan's shoulders and said in horror: "Oops, the day before I came, they set off to Beiqi Mountain to suppress bandits, and Beiqi Mountain collapsed, will they not come out and be buried in it?" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Xuan instantly felt a cool breath from his head, and he couldn't even sit on the stool.

She felt dizzy, and after a long while, her eyes widened and she said, "You said they went to Beiqi Mountain to suppress bandits?" Why haven't we heard about it?

Tell me your name and identity now, and tell me everything you know, and don't leave anything out. ”

Zheng Haihua was frightened by her expression, and said to her 1510: "My name is Zheng Haihua, I am the daughter of the Zheng family, our Zheng family is the head of the four families in the county, and my father's name is Zheng Chengfeng, who is the head of the Zheng family."

In February, the imperial court issued an order to confiscate the world's weapons, and those who dared to make weapons privately were punished for serious crimes, except for the border of neutralization.

A few years ago, Beiqi Mountain was occupied by a group of mountain bandits who didn't know where they came from, and there were only a few dozen people at that time, which did not attract the attention of all parties.

Last year, my Zheng family's goods were robbed twice in two months, and my father checked and checked, and finally found out that these mountain bandits did it.

My father did not despise them, and sent two trusted relatives to Beiqi Mountain to do internal response, only then did he know that there was a large iron mine there.

In recent years, the number of bandits in the mountains has increased to as many as 5,000 unconsciously, and they not only mine privately, but also build a large number of weapons and sell them in various places.

Originally, the relationship between the previous county commander and my father was very good, and they also secretly made a detailed plan, and they were sure to exterminate these mountain bandits in one fell swoop.

I don't know how his brother-in-law Cheng family offended the King of Jin, and his position as a county magistrate was also implicated and removed from his official position, and my father had no choice but to give up.

At the beginning of February, the emperor listened to the advice of the king of Jin and ordered the confiscation of the world's weapons. My father and several other family heads moved their minds and prepared to elect a county magistrate to exterminate the bandits in Beiqi Mountain first.

Lord Wei had not been selected at that time, and the original candidates were the eldest son of the Meng family and the other four, and Lord Wei was far from qualified. ”

Speaking of Wei Wei, Zheng Haihua's eyes were obviously different, but she quickly woke up, and her eyes dimmed for a moment.
