Chapter 224: The Yellow River

The eldest princess looked condescendingly at Shen Bin who was kneeling on the ground, but her heart couldn't help but be a little more shaken. Shen Bin's words just touched the softest heart in the eldest princess's heart, as if the initial blood had never disappeared.

Her eyes were a little moist, and she couldn't help but wave her hand after all: "That's it, you are my son, I naturally want to protect you." It's just that you can't be in a hurry these days, so you can wait for a few days for the emperor to be relieved. ”

"Yes!" Shen Bin was very excited when he heard this, and even smiled and agreed to Shi Li: "Thank you, mother." ”

The eldest princess sighed and said angrily: "It can be seen that you kid can speak, but there is always a reason for you." ”

Because Yingshu is pregnant with a second child, Yingshu has once again become the key protection object of the family, and all kinds of taboos and care attention are everywhere, but she herself doesn't take it very seriously, "In fact, if you think about it carefully, giving birth to a child is just like that, so you won't be so nervous." ”

Mother Zhang was deeply disturbed by this, and hurriedly patted her knees and said, "My girl, don't you dare!" A woman giving birth to a child is a big deal, but she must not be sloppy! You can't just because it went well last time and don't care about it this time! ”

Yingshu: "......"

In fact, because the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching on August 15, Yingshu is full of thoughts about egg yolk lotus paste mooncakes.

"Did the dining room make egg yolk lotus paste mooncakes? Mom, I can always eat this. ”

Mother Zhang nodded: "Naturally, you can, but you can't eat more, just eat half of it." That thing has a lot of sugar, and it's very difficult to control. ”

"What's the fun of eating only half of it?" Ying Shu shook her head, thinking that she could only eat half a star of such delicious food in front of her, and her heart was even more unbalanced.

"But this time I'm pregnant, I can skip the banquet." Ying Shuwu muttered to herself, looking at Shen Bin on the side with a solemn look, Ying Shu threw a sour plum at Shen Bin, "What do you want?" It's going to be a holiday, and you're still so sad. ”

As soon as Ying Shu finished speaking, she thought of why Shen Bin was like this, "Mid-Autumn Festival, but the Emperor's Longevity Festival!" But ......"

"But there is no wind in the DPRK." Shen Bin replied: "Now it seems that it is clearly Sima Zhao's heart. ”

Zhang's mother had already retreated with the times, and there were only Yingshu and Shen Bin in the hall, Shen Bin walked over and helped Yingshu pinch her sore shoulder: "Now the situation is becoming more and more unclear." It's always panicked. ”

"A few days ago, Gan Shangshi said that he asked someone to send some food supplements to the Southern Palace of the Emperor Taishang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Qingning Palace. She said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is much better now, but his mood is always unpleasant. ”

Shen Bin said worriedly: "Can it be smooth?" If I were Ah Yuan, I would be suffocated to death. ”

"So fortunately, you're not the prince, otherwise how would you survive to the end?" Ying Shu sarcastically.

"The position of this prince, seeing that he has suffered so much, is not appropriate. It's just that...... Ah Yuan is really a good prince! If you are not the prince, it will be a great loss. It's just that if I don't care about the overall situation, I'd rather Ah Yuan be an idle prince and be safe and prosperous all his life, which is also excellent. ”

"What about you?" Ying Shu looked at the man who was a little melancholy, "If it weren't for His Highness's sake and Daxin, you wouldn't want to be an official." You don't want to bear the filth of this royal family. ”

Shen Bin smiled helplessly, "You still understand me!" ”

Ying Shu picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it, and after only one bite, Shen Bin came over and stopped him extremely nervously: "My little ancestor, don't dare to eat blindly." This thing is the coldest, Zhang's mother has already ordered it, and she doesn't dare to eat more. ”

Ying Shu was very helpless, but she coveted such a delicious bite in her mouth, thinking that it would be good to fight a little, so she used the usual little trick, opened a pair of big eyes, and looked at the gentle and gentle man in front of her very sadly. After getting along for so many years, I probably came to a conclusion, that is, as long as I am more coquettish, men will be ruthless, so they will repeat the old tricks, and it will always be useful in the future.

Sure enough, the man's eyes were a little shaken, and there was a slight flicker in the eyes of the coquettish Yingshu.

Ying Shu worked harder to please Shen Bin, and even more delicately, pulling Shen Bin's sleeves, so not squeamish.

"Good husband, why don't you let me eat two more bites! The doctor has said that my body is still very good, so it doesn't hurt to eat more. ”

Seeing that the last line of defense was about to be breached, Ying Shu had already felt the joy of victory in advance, but the man turned around at the last moment, shook his head firmly at Ying Shu and said, "No, no, Mother Zhang said, you are pregnant, you have to pay attention to everything." It's already good to let you eat a bite, but I don't dare to eat it again. After that, Shen Bin carefully picked out the watermelon in the fruit bowl and put it aside.

"If you keep yelling and eating, although I can't control you, I can always call Mother Zhang to come to you." Shen Bin also threatened.

"You ......" Ying Shu was very scared, she was really afraid of Zhang's mother's tight spell and making a small report, remembering that the two young couples had played before, and there were more strawberry marks on their bodies, and they were all told by Zhang's mother to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang had been counting herself for a long time.

"You're really amazing now!" Ying Shu gritted her teeth and looked at Shen Bin viciously.

Thinking that the attitude was wrong, Ying Shu decided to make the last struggle, that is, she stepped forward and returned to her simple and helpless appearance, and once again pulled the corner of Shen Bin's clothes: "Let me eat again, it's so hot these days, so stuffy, who can stand it?" ”

Shen Bin looked at Ying Shu like a fool, looked out the window again, and said helplessly: "But it's raining outside!" It's pretty cool. ”

"......" Yingshu lowered her head and stopped talking.

It just so happened that the sound of thunder sounded outside the window at this time, and Shen Bin looked out the window: "It's good to be depressed for so many days, even if it rains a little." A few days ago, it was always raining heavily in the south, but the capital was dry. Now that it's so cool, you can feel better. ”

Because of the mistake of lying and not typing the draft, Yingshu now felt very embarrassed, so she echoed what Shen Bin said with a posture that was a hundred times more well-behaved, and immediately said: "Well, it's raining well, it's not hot." ”

It's just that for the capital, the rain is naturally good, but for the land of Longjun, which is a little south of the capital, it is not very good.

Longdi in the northwest has always been arid and windy, and the rain has never been just a burst, but this year somehow, the Yellow River is actually rainy and rainy, which is extremely abnormal.

Because it doesn't like rain for many years, Longjun has always paid little attention to the drainage area. This rainstorm continued, Longjun actually had a serious waterlogging, farmland was flooded, the city was waterlogged, countless crops and houses were destroyed, and Longjun was mountainous, even with the flash flood and mudslide at the same time, for a time there were countless casualties, and Longjun suffered great losses.

The land of the Yellow River has always been a place of great significance, and now Longjun has suffered a disaster, but it will inevitably affect the whole country, and in the court of the capital, the ministers have temporarily put down the matter of arguing for the emperor, and only think about the importance of controlling the water first.

And because of the flooding of the Yellow River, the emperor not only canceled the Mid-Autumn Festival birthday banquet on August 15, but also canceled the birthday banquet on August 16 with himself. In this way, it has become a legitimate thing not to celebrate the birthday of the emperor.

The whole government and the central government began to argue and worry about how to control the water and who to send to control the water, but most of the ministers of the court and the central government were from the north, and most of them were born and raised in the capital, so they really had no experience in water control. For a time, the man who controlled the water became a trouble.

In the end, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department and the first assistant of the cabinet, recommended Qi Youzhen, the father of Qi Zhi, the late concubine of the crown prince Li Yuan, who was also the chief assistant of the cabinet, to go to Longjun to control the water, on the grounds that Qi Youzhen had experience in controlling the floods in the south, so it was most appropriate to send Qi Youzhen to control the water.

"Qi Youzhen is a person with a bad character, he has always only had a position of fame and power in his eyes, and whoever has a high position will follow whomever he wants, but he is just a wall grass. This kind of person can still be recommended, and only if Lord Yu is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, he will be like this. However, it is true that he is capable, but he is just a sleek accident, and he is naturally despised by the family. Shen Bin began to analyze Yingshu.

Ying Shu listened to these words, remembering that once the white soldiers came to the city, the prince's "father-in-law" was the first to move the capital back to Nanjing, at that time, most of the officials in the court and the central government set up a family to stay behind to protect Pingjing, Qi Youzhen's behavior is tantamount to shrinking the head of the turtle is undoubtedly not too late by the family, and now the reputation is indeed a lot of stinking. Even Emperor Li Ming began to be not very close to this Lord Qi.

Thinking of the good daughter of Lord Qi who had given her good sister Ruotong so much temperament, Ying Shu didn't have a good impression of this big family in her heart.

"Lord Yu has always been upright and upright, and he will not affect state affairs for personal reasons. That is, His Majesty valued Lord Yu, and the first emperor did not attach importance to Lord Yu, and Lord Yu also advocated taking back the Emperor Taishang and seeking benefits for the Emperor. Now I can recommend Lord Qi, just because Lord Qi can really control the water well, regardless of the personal party disputes, and now it is the most important thing to save the people of Longjun! ”

"yes!" Shen Bin sighed: "The party fights for the party, but don't delay the major national events, the lives of the people are the lives of the precious people!" Fortunately, I can have more than one person, otherwise those moths will eat up my big xin. ”

On the second day, Emperor Li Ming officially issued an order, ordering the cabinet Qi Youzhen to be the minister of water control, and went to Longjun for water control and disaster relief on the same day. At the same time, Shen Bin was sent to accompany half of the people and horses of the Xishan Battalion for disaster relief assistance.

"Why did you take advantage of this time to transfer me?" Shen Bin instinctively smelled the breath of crisis, "Don't think about taking advantage of this opportunity, it's ......."

Worries and doubts once again occupied Shen Bin's heart......
