The group left Fengcheng and walked out for a while, Hua Yan suddenly remembered something and called out to An Sixteen.

An Sixteen asked Hua Yan, "What does the young master command?" ”

Hua Yan jumped out of the car curtain and looked outside the car and ordered, "Sixteen, let's not take the official road, walk along the Black Dragon River." ”

An Sixteen immediately said, "Young Master, after the Heilong River bursts its embankment, there is no way to go, and there are mud and sand ravines on both sides. ”

Hua Yan said, "Then we'll walk." I want to draw a topographic map of the Heilong River today, it is late autumn, no rain falls, the Heilong River is still safe after the flood, but next year's flood season, if the embankment is not repaired, it will still harm the people. Therefore, the embankment of the Heilong River must be repaired as soon as possible. I want to hurry up with a plan and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to send someone to repair the Heilong River embankment. ”

An Sixteen suddenly bowed his head, "What the young master said is true. ”

So, the group turned around, abandoned the carriage, and walked all the way along the Heilong River.

Hua Yan walked and painted, while exploring the topography, geomorphology, geology, soil, sand and gravel, as well as dangerous shoals and mountain ridges, in order to plan a plan to repair the Heilong River embankment once and for all.

After such a delay, he walked for ten days.

During this period, Hua Yan received a letter from Su Zi, saying that there seemed to be movement in Bei'an City, and the four cities in the southeast, northwest, and northwest had strengthened twice the number of city defenders and patrols in the past few days. Presumably to prevent them from entering the city.

And now he has been staying in the Wuwei army of Wuwei Houfu, and after having the military talisman of Wuwei Hou, sure enough, the unstable people in the army have stabilized.

The people in Bei'an City didn't know that he had already arrived in Bei'an City.

It took Huayan ten days to map the mountains and rivers along the Heilong River, and another three days to formulate a detailed water control plan specifically for the Heilong River.

After the plan was completed, she sent someone to the capital to send it to Yun Chi.

Although Cheng Guzhi left Fengcheng two days later than Hua Yan and the others, he arrived in Fengcheng five days earlier than her.

Cheng Guzhi returned to Bei'an City, and the city defenders saw him and immediately let him into the city. He looked at the defenders of Bei'an City, who were obviously twice as heavy as before, and a dark shadow fell from his eyes.

Now Bei'an City has obviously been defended, which shows that no matter who it is, it is impossible to move Bei'an City.

He secretly thought that Bei'an City really couldn't move?

He shook his head again secretly, impossible. Whether it is Hua Yan or Su Ziqi, they all have their own abilities, not to mention that the two of them are united, plus Yun Chi is in charge of the court, only these three people, three hands, can pierce a piece of the sky.

Not to mention that they have been in the Northland for a short time so far, and they have done the disaster relief in Fengcheng, Yuqiu and other places in an orderly manner, and a large number of killers have not been able to help Su Zi, but they have all folded in the Northland, and they don't know that Huayan came to the Northland.

Today's Northland, like cotton wrapped in layers of silver wire mesh, looks solid, but in fact it is light and fluttering, and when the wind blows, it may blow off the silver wire and blow away the cotton inside.

Cheng Gu thought about it all the way and returned to Cheng's house.

As soon as he stepped into the house, he was called to the study by Cheng Yao.

When Cheng Yao saw Cheng Guzhi, he first looked him up and down, and when he saw that he had been out for a few days, he seemed to be very haggard, much thinner than when he left home, as if he had fled back from outside, and felt a little embarrassed.

He frowned and looked at Cheng Guzhi, and reprimanded majestically, "Do you still know to come back?" ”

Cheng Guzhi looked at Cheng Yao and shouted "Father", and then, his voice was choked and he couldn't speak.

Cheng Yao suppressed his anger, "Look at you, go out for a trip, what will you look like when you come back?" ”

Cheng Guzhi lowered his head wordlessly.

Cheng Yao asked with a calm face, "You went to Fengcheng on your own initiative this time, and ran back in disgrace." Can you tell me what Fengcheng looks like today? ”

Cheng Guzhi bit his lip and didn't make a sound.

"Say!" Cheng Yao looked at him, and his anger was a little irrepressible.

Cheng Guzhi raised his head, looked at Cheng Yao, and suppressed the pain in his heart, "Father, in Fengcheng today, the disaster relief is progressing very smoothly......"

"Who asked you about disaster relief?" Cheng Yao looked at him angrily, "I'm asking you, what are Su Ziqi doing in Fengcheng now?" ”

Cheng Gu's heart rose with deep disappointment, "Father doesn't ask about disaster relief, doesn't care about the lives of the people, only cares about Su Ziqi?" ”

Cheng Yao was furious, "How can you talk to me?" Unfilial son! ”

Cheng Guzhi was not afraid of anger and asked, "Father thinks that I am a descendant of the Cheng family, even if I go to Fengcheng, what news can I get from Su Zi?" ”

Cheng Yaoqing jumped, "Then you say, what did you know when you went to Fengcheng?" What was done? ”

Cheng Guzhi took a deep breath, "I didn't see Su Ziqi, I only saw that Fengcheng disaster relief matters were done very well. When I went over with ten carts of rice grain, Fengcheng was no longer short of rice grain. ”

"Didn't you see Su Ziqi?" Cheng Yao frowned, "Is he not in Fengcheng, or did you not see him?" ”

Cheng Guzhi shook his head, "I don't know, anyway, I didn't see him." After the words fell, he added, "Father, don't forget, I am the Cheng family, even if he is in Fengcheng, how can he treat me specially?" ”

Cheng Yao felt reasonable, and his face was a little pale, "None of the people sent by our Cheng family to Fengcheng have come back to report the news. Do you know what's going on? ”

Cheng Guzhi pursed his lips, "Since Su Zi has nothing to do, the person sent by my father must have folded there." When I went, Fengcheng was very calm, the people had settled down, and I had no choice but to come back. ”

Cheng Yao said with a gloomy face, "This Su Zi Chop is so powerful, the people sent to Fengcheng add up, more than 2,000 people, and they can't help him." ”

Cheng Guzhi didn't answer.

Cheng Yao remembered something, and said angrily, "By the way, it's An Yangjun, and An Ke's dog thing has defected." actually took refuge in Su Ziqi. Do you see Anko? ”

Cheng Guzhi shook his head, "I didn't see An Ke, An Ke is said to have been killed, and now Fengcheng is under martial law and is investigating this matter." When the words fell, he raised his eyebrows, "It's been a few days, and my father doesn't know about it?" ”

Cheng Yao said angrily, "The people sent to Fengcheng have not returned, and the news will naturally not come back." Didn't he take refuge in Su Zi? Who killed him? ”

Cheng Guzhi shook his head, "It is said that it is a large number of killers who poured into Fengcheng. ”

Cheng Yao pondered, "Could it be that the second master of Huaiwangfu hated An Ke's rebellion, and sent someone to Fengcheng to kill him?" ”

Cheng Guzhi didn't speak.

Cheng Yaojing thought for a while and asked, "Who is the commander of the Anyang Army now?" ”

"Xiao Yu." Cheng Gu's way.

"Xiao Yu? Who is he? Cheng Yao obviously didn't know Xiao Yu.

"It is said to be a master book of the county." Cheng Gu's way.

Cheng Yao snorted, "A small county master can even be the chief general of the Anyang Army?" ”

Cheng Gu was silent.

Cheng Yao understood what he wanted to know, so he waved his hand to Cheng Guzhi, "Okay, you toss around, go and rest after meeting your grandfather." Don't do this kind of thing again, this time it should teach yourself a lesson. ”

Cheng Guzhi walked out of Cheng Yao's study in silence.

Coming to the courtyard of Cheng Xiang, the old master of Cheng's family, Cheng Guzhi's footsteps are slow, Cheng Xiang is different from Cheng Yao, he grew up beside Cheng Xiang since he was a child, he was taught more by him, and he has a deep affection for Cheng Yao.

He knew that most of what his father did was at the behest of his grandfather, and without his instructions, his father would not dare to do it. Once the Cheng family was liquidated with incriminating evidence, the first to bear the burden were grandfather and father. Two people who gave him blood and teaching.

As he walked, he stopped, and he couldn't take a step again, although he had promised the crown princess, he still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart. He dared to see Cheng Yao, but he didn't dare to see Cheng Xiang.

He stood for a while, and several children's figures in front of him ran out playfully, followed by a group of maids, who shouted "Miss Young Master, slow down!" ”

He watched in a trance.

Without saying much, the children ran to him, and a little boy who ran in front looked at him with a beautiful little face, "Second uncle, are you back?" ”

Cheng Guzhi came back to his senses, looked down, and saw the little boy blinking his big watery eyes, he nodded.

The little boy stretched out his hand to him, "Second uncle, what about the gift you brought us?" ”

Cheng Guzhi suddenly remembered that every time he went out, he would bring gifts to the children of the Cheng family, no matter whether he was out or behind, as long as the children had gifts, but this time he rushed back all the way, and his mind was full of his choices for the future of the Cheng family, so he forgot about the gifts.

But looking at the child's innocent face, one after another, looking at him expectantly, he smiled, "I brought you a gift, but I didn't bring it to me at this time, and I will send someone to send it to you one by one later." ”

The children cheered with joy, guessed what the gift was, and then ran away again.

Cheng Guzhi stood in place and looked at the innocent and carefree figures of the children, playing happily, and the struggling decision in his heart gradually became solid. If the Cheng family is full of beheadings, then these children will be implicated, they are still so young, they don't know what to do, and they haven't stepped out of the Cheng family to see the outside world, how innocent are they?

So, the choice he made was the right one. Even if it was a great dishonor for my grandfather and father.
