Midnight pushed the cup to the restrained Yang Yingyu opposite, "Miss Yang, this king invited you to come because I have something to ask for." How did Zhounan County become what it is now? Since entering the city, the houses in the city do not seem to have been seriously affected by the floods, so why do the people now have to live in the county office? ”

It's the same as in the fifties and sixties in country Z, eating a big pot of rice, but at that time, country Z at least lived in his own home.

However, the houses in the city they saw after entering the city did not look like they had been flooded, or they were broken, but there were no traces of flooding, and the people were concentrated in the county office.

Although bricks have been used to build houses in the city, bricks are expensive, and not all people can afford to use them.

If the water really floods into the county, it will be easy for these houses built of earth to stop the imprints. But all the way in, they saw no such traces.

This is one of them, and the other is that although Yan Xi does not have a mature flood and drought prevention method, but every city, including a small county town, the city wall is built very thick, used to resist the enemy at the same time, there is also a flood control, as long as the city gate is closed, although it can not completely block the flood, but it can also play a certain role.

Moreover, there is no river in Zhounan County, not even a stream, and the people can only rely on wells or go out of the city to carry water into the river to drink water on weekdays, which also makes Zhounan County have a special occupation, which is to sell water and sell water.

Midnight roughly guessed what the reason was, but just now King Jing, an idiot of social life, asked him this question, and he personally thought that this question should be answered by him, and it would be better for King Jing to understand it better if it was answered by the person in charge here - the real suffering of the people and the difficulty of surviving after the disaster!

Yang Yingyu bowed, and did not have the courage to fetch water, but replied respectfully in a low voice: "Huixian Wangye, half a year ago, that is, since the beginning of June last year, there was not a day in Zhouning County that did not rain rainably.

In a half-moon in a row, the water of the canal outside the city had overflowed the stone bridge.

There is a dam in Chaoshang Zhounan County and Sanxi County, which was originally used to store water to prevent drought, but due to the long-term disrepair, my father was worried that the embankment would have problems, and after sending someone to check the embankment, he found that there was a gap.

My father was worried that if the levee was destroyed, the water would come straight to Zhounan County, and the city gate alone would not be able to stop the flood.

So my father ordered his courtiers to persuade the people around the county to take refuge in the city, and the hundreds of strong laborers left behind sealed the city gate with wood outside the north gate, and he himself took most of the strong laborers in the city to the embankment to fill the gap. ”

A tear fell vertically, dripping on the surface of Yang Yingyu's feet, and then one drop after another.

But they had not been gone long before the flood water came down。。。。。。 My father was carried back by Uncle Li in the afternoon of the next day, and there were less than ten people who followed my father back at that time. ”

Midnight and King Jing looked at Yang Yingyu, who was crying suppressed, and their hearts were heavy.

Yang County's decision was wrong, and it was indeed true, at that time, he should not have taken people to the embankment. So he blamed himself, because he took all the strong laborers away, and there were only a few hundred strong laborers left in the county, and there were a bunch of old and weak women and children.

Midnight suddenly felt a little funny, and he did laugh, a low laugh, so laughing that King Jing looked at him incredulously.

It was Yang Yingyu, who forgot to look up in fear, her face was full of tears, and she looked at him with the same doubt.

"You don't want your father to be an official." Midnight used an affirmative sentence.

"After entering the mansion, I didn't see the next person, just you as a young lady of the official family running up and down, this king can be understood as Yang County's order is incorruptible, and there is no subordinate to serve, even your daughter, there is no maid ring.

But this king and the fifth brother came to receive you, arranged a room for us, and even cleaned the room for us to stay, but Mrs. Yang, who is the head of the house, has never appeared.

There is a law in the fire, and when local officials go to work, they must bring their families with them. First, it is to prevent officials from being too far away from their families and distracted from handling official affairs, and second, it is also to prevent people from threatening officials by holding their families hostage.

And during this whole day, the king has not seen any other rooms except for you shuttling among the people, which can rule out the reason why Madame Yang is seriously ill or physically inconvenient and cannot appear.

That king could only guess that Mrs. Yang was already unlucky.

As the daughter of Yang Countyling, you are articulate and organized, and you are not a superficial woman in the boudoir.

Therefore, you will not be unclear about what you just said to this king and the fifth brother, what kind of impact will be on your father's official career. If it weren't for the fact that we saw your father and your love for the people, it would be light to be demoted, and heavy punishment or even death would have been deserved. ”

Yang Yingyu was so shocked that she forgot to react, but under the gaze of Mu Mu looking at Midnight, Midnight said the true purpose of her heart:

"You are taking advantage of your father's love for the people, according to what this king and the fifth brother have seen with their own eyes, so the mistakes made by the Eryang County Order, this king and the fifth brother will not punish him heavily, at most they will dismiss his officials."

Yang Yingyu immediately knelt down with a "bang", bowing her head without saying anything, but she had already said everything.

King Jing was not just shocked now, but completely stunned.

It turns out that this is the side of the nineteenth brother as a white-faced god!

But midnight frightened him even more.

"Miss Yang, you can know that what you just said, the focus of this king's attention is not the fault of Yang County's order, but the heart of Yang County's order to be accepted by the people like a son. Yan Xi has Yang County's order like this, before the natural disaster, everything in my heart is the official of the people, which is my great luck for Yan Xi.

Such officials, this king will be enshrined in the emperor, and add - official - enter - knight! ”

The last four words, midnight, were read word by word with an accentuated tone.

When his words fell, Yang Yingyu sat on the ground with all her strength as if her whole body had lost her strength. The almost desperate gaze stared blankly at the ground, and his face was already dead ash.

"Miss Yang is in Zhounan County, far away from the capital, and it is normal that she doesn't know this king very well." Midnight knocked Bai Yuxiao to stand up, paced in front of her, squatted down and lifted her chin with Bai Yuxiao.

is obviously an improper behavior of molesting a little girl, but he does it without any sense of prodigality.

"The emperor named the king as the southeast patrol envoy, and he can exercise the right to cut first and then play. Since the founding of the country, in addition to this king, only more than 50 years ago - when the ancestors of this king went to the northwest, they had this right. ”

Not to mention King Jing's reaction, Han Er rolled his eyes speechlessly.

More than fifty years ago, King Xian did have the right to cut first and then play when he went down to the northwest, but the nineteenth master, it seems that the emperor didn't give you such a right, right?

It seems that he still sent a letter to the prince earlier and informed the prince of this matter.

If the nineteenth master really kills someone first, the prince will not end well!
