Chapter 261: Lin Xujin's tail

is also worthy of being good sisters, Miao Meng and the two didn't think much about it, so they patted their chests and decided.

Money, Meng Yu'er threw it directly on the table, "How much do you want, say it yourself, if I don't have it, I will sell the things given by your emperor, and I can always make up the amount." ”

You don't have to! Ji Xiang's face turned pale, this was in ancient times, but it could punish crimes. Meng Yu'er sighed, it was a pity, and then slapped the table angrily. "What, what does the old lady want to do with those things, do you want to watch and play?" If you knew it, you wouldn't want it, isn't the money good?

Miao Ruyi comforted, you are okay, like she is penniless now, Ji Ye came to her to buy shares, and she couldn't take out anything empty-handed.

This matter was settled in this way, and when Meng Yuer left, she had no intention of talking about Shi Hui. It may be that the eldest brother hurt her a little harder, and when she talks about people, she has a sad face.

It seems that I have to find a time to talk to Shi Hui.

It was raining at night, Ji Xiang and Chen Xie An were sitting in the house, Miao Ruyi was next to Ji Xiang, and the two were talking and embroidering flowers.

There was a quick knock outside the door, Ruyi was the first to stand up and run out, and as soon as he opened the door, it was Shi Hui with an umbrella with an anxious face.

"Ziyu." This is Chen Jiean's word, he didn't call him so intimately, when did Shi Hui become so familiar with him? However, Ji Xiang didn't say what she thought, she saw that Shi Hui's sleeves were basically wet, and even his shoes and socks were stained with muddy water, so she should have come in a hurry.

There should be something urgent.

Shi Hui didn't even confiscate the umbrella and stuffed it directly to Miao Ruyi. "The Nantuman River flooded early, the dam collapsed, and nearly 3,000 acres of fertile land were destroyed. According to local reports, countless people washed out their houses. ”

"When?" Chen Xie saddle suddenly rose, his eyebrows were resolute, Ji Xiang didn't care about him these days, and his chin had grown a beard.

Hearing this, Ji Xiang's hands trembled a little. After a flood, if it is not dealt with in time, there will inevitably be a plague. At that time, natural disasters came, and manpower was beyond their reach.

"Come and report, three days ago!"

On the third day, the flood happened for three days, what did the local county officials do, and why did they not report it in time.

Listening to Shi Hui, at first, it was just raining for days, the river was rising, and the embankment could still stop it. Later, when the wind and waves became stronger, the county magistrate realized that something was wrong, but he remembered that the willow embankment was built by the previous county magistrate at a huge cost. The human and financial resources consumed back then were equivalent to tens of thousands of gold.

But who knows, such a levee lasted less than half a day, and the bottom suddenly cracked. Someone came to report, and the county official felt that it was too late. Trying their best to evacuate the people, unfortunately, the people did not believe in the county officials at that time, even if the storm and anger came in the end, they were aware of it, but they also had a sense of powerlessness and decadence, and some decided to stay where they were and wait for death, and the other followed the county officials to the nearby mountains.

"In this way, the county magistrate can be regarded as a meritorious person." Ji Xiang felt that except for the mistake of judgment at the beginning, other options could be regarded as the most suitable at that time. "It's just that I pity those who died innocently."

After experiencing the incident of Ling'an, Ji Xiang was particularly sorry for his life. I still remember the three soldiers who were poisoned at that time, although I forgot their names, but the three very different faces, the vague smiles, and the words of not fearing death and longing for life are still vivid.

"Yes. When the people are displaced, the foundations of the nation will be unstable. "Huaguo has happened one after another, Shi Hui said that Ge Yunzhang has gone to the astrology platform late at night, if he can't see the bad anymore, I'm afraid His Majesty will be furious. He sighed, and asked Chen Xie to quickly clean up, what they are doing here is about the water control in this flood season, and now that the Nan Rolling River is flooding, I am afraid that His Majesty will anger them.

Ji Xiang worriedly pulled Chen Jie'an and packed up a set of clean clothes overnight. He took some more pastries and told him to hide them.

Shi Hui's eyes were hot and sour, but Ji Xiang ignored it. When someone was about to leave, Shi Hui suddenly stuffed something into Ji Xiang's arms, "You help me hand it over to Meng Yu'er, and besides, I have nothing to do with Miss Li's family, it's just that she broke her foot that day, just give it a hand." Be a jealous woman before you pass the door, be careful that I divorce her! ”

Of course, in the second half of the sentence, Ji Xiang will not tell Meng Yuer.

She smiled lightly, and there was no sorrow between her brows for a while. The nose was sour, and he couldn't help but press his eyes to plug the useless thing back. "Well, I know. Xianggong, big brother, you must come back safely. ”

Chen Xie said in a deep voice and hugged Ji Xiang with both hands. The rain was cold, and the sound was like a sad tune.

"Well, don't cry, I'm distressed."

After the night rain, the morning was cold, Ji Xiang woke up without touching anyone, and he was lonely for a while.

I don't know what happened to Xianggong and eldest brother at this time, whether His Majesty summoned them or not. She sighed faintly, and she felt that her spirit was gone. When Meng Yuer came, she also had such a depressed face,

Miao Ruyi also dragged her cheeks and briefly said what happened last night. Meng Yu'er let out a sigh and woke Ji Xiang up. "How powerful is the water? The water in our northern country is like a wolf cub, reflected on the grassland, like a streamer. I didn't think about it, but your water is better than those wolves. So many people died, wouldn't that be a dead city? ”

The lower reaches of the Nanrolling River are located in the north of Hangzhou, adjacent to Kyoto, and are called Shencheng. The waterways of Shencheng extend in all directions, and there are many ports, and I heard the eldest brother say that there are more people than a few Kyotos. I can only say that I am glad that when the flood season came this year, it happened to be a period of few people.

If it's July or August, I'm afraid that more people will die.

After explaining, Ji Xiang took out a pair of peony silk hairpins that Shi Hui gave last night. It is a sandalwood box, and when it is opened, it is a stamen made of broken jade twist, and a large orange peony silk flower is wrapped in a short and delicate pearl tassel. There is also a letter in it, which says that the scenery of Yuehua Mountain is unique, and she is invited to see it.

Openly and secretly, Shi Hui was saying that he already had some liking for Meng Yuer.

On the other hand, Meng Yu'er frowned, looking at the words on the paper, as if she felt that she had seen something incredible. "Did your brother think I had no ink in my stomach and deliberately wrote this to humiliate me?"

Yes?

Miao Ruyi and Ji Xiang almost dropped their jaws, and Meng Yuer pointed to the three words of Yuehua Mountain, "Who doesn't know the sunrise scene of Yuehua Mountain, I don't like to read, but I'm not stupid." ”

……

"Big brother shouldn't mean that." After a long time, Ji Xiang spoke helplessly. "Besides, I didn't know that there was Mt. Tsukika in Kyoto? What kind of place is that, I haven't been out much since I've come to Kyoto. ”

Now, I'm not in the mood to go out. She was too worried about Chen Jie'an, and she was always afraid that something would happen to him.

said what Shi Hui wanted her to tell Meng Yuer, only to see that Fuguihua's face turned red, and her cheeks were pink and cute. After asking a few questions about the truth, he grinned and smirked contentedly holding the wooden box.

The three of them sat in the courtyard, some happy and some sad.

For the past two hours, smoke has risen from every house. Ji Xiang didn't have a mind, Miao Ruyi didn't, Meng Yuer felt full when she looked at the peony hairpin. I was thinking that I would be hungry like this, but Xie Keyan came.

She didn't even knock on the door, and her face turned dark.

As soon as he saw Ji Xiang, he was hoarse.

"Ji Xiang, senior brother, he ...... He was sent by His Majesty to Shencheng. "The city of Shen is now a city of floods, and there will be a great plague after the great plague. Just past the matter of Ling'an, why can't the senior brother even breathe, so he has to be on the axis.

"What!" Ji Xiang was not convinced, "How do you know." ”

Xie Keyan's mouth was flattened, and tears fell down in large pieces. Ji Xiang really couldn't stand it, "Don't cry, Yan'er, where did you get the news, it's accurate or not." ”

Miao Ruyi and Meng Yu'er were dumbfounded, and Xie Keyan wiped away the tears that kept pouring out, and raised his voice aggrievedly. "It's true, it's true. The master never came back late at night, and I was worried about his health, so I went to the astrology table to deliver food. On the way back, I heard the palace people say that His Majesty was furious about the Nantuman River, and that the Yangliu Dam was built by hollowing out the treasury that year, and why it was washed away in less than two years. This matter is related to many ministers in the DPRK and China, His Majesty appointed his senior brother to go to Nanhuanjiang for disaster relief, and Uncle Yun investigated the case of corruption and bribery. ”

Ji Xiang's heart fell slightly, "Don't worry about disaster relief, okay, you're crying like a little cat, wash your face and take a break." ”

"Don't." Xie Keyan listened to Ji Xiang's words and felt even more aggrieved. Senior brother is going to a dangerous place like Shencheng, isn't Ji Xiang worried at all? She is the wife of her senior brother, why is she not as good as herself.

Her eyes gradually cooled, this gaze was like a sharp edge, and Ji Xiang quickly felt it. finally got along with Xie Keyan, she didn't want to make any more moths. "I know what you're thinking, and I'm worried about going to that dangerous place. However, Yan'er, just crying, that can't solve the problem. Only by calming down can you know the solution. ”

It's true?

Xie Keyan's eyes widened, she felt that what Ji Xiang said was very reasonable. Subconsciously, she remembered what Liu Yuyi said. Ji Xiang just decided to protect it on a whim of his senior brother, men are essentially stealing cats, and those who get their hands will not cherish it.

But now she feels that something is wrong, her senior brother's feelings for Ji Xiang are beyond her imagination, she always thought that Ji Xiang loves her senior brother more, but now, Ji Xiang is too calm in her eyes.

It's so calm, as if it's dealing with someone else's business.

But she couldn't refute that what Ji Xiang did was indeed right. Only reason and calmness can help Senior Brother......

After appeasing Xie Keyan, everyone's stomachs were empty, and Ji Xiang went to find a restaurant to eat.

Before he arrived at the private room, Ji Xiang saw Lin Xujin.

Their location was remote, and Lin Xujin didn't see her. Just as he was about to say hello, he saw a beautiful woman waving in front of Lin Xujin.

It turned out to be a date?

According to ancient times, it is not a puppy love.

Ji Xiang pressed the guess in his heart, thinking that the next time he saw Lin Xujin, he would have a good chat with him. Stepping forward, Ji Xiang's ears moved.

"Childe, what you want me to do has been done."

Well, in fact, it can be regarded as a unique geographical advantage, plus Ji Xiang's ear power is good, so he can hear the conversation.

She was thinking about it, so she stopped to hear what Lin Xujin had to say.

"Well, go in, the partition wall has ears."

This kid is quite cautious.

"Okay, Childe go slowly, Liu Yuyi has been waiting for you inside for half an hour, I'm afraid it's for ......"

"Shut up!"

Ji Xiang: !! Why listening to this dialogue, I feel that Lin Xujin is not so simple.
