Chapter 442: A Short Peace

Since the plague, the two sides have once again formed a confrontation posture, but they seem to be waiting for each other's actions, and neither has any intention of attacking first, because of this situation, there is a strange "peace" scene between Shengjing and Yingdu City.

However, until one's enemies are destroyed, any peace is nothing more than an illusion to cover up the eyes and ears of others, and the conspiracy behind this peace is gradually emerging.

Nan Rongliang has recently started to go out of the city frequently to inspect, and every time he comes back, his face is not very good, but no matter how Xia Houying asks, he always says "It's okay", which makes Xiahou Ying more and more worried.

And Duguchen seems to have suddenly become a little eccentric, often locking himself in the room, and one shutdown is a whole day. It's just that he will inform Xia Houying in advance every time, so that Xiahou Ying wants to find out, but it is not easy to move.

While everyone was still speculating about how long the peace between the two sides could last, the weather that had already entered the middle of winter warmed up again, although this time it was not as hot as the last time, but with the experience of the last time, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines.

In just one day, all the snow that fell in one winter had melted.

On the city tower, looking at the river surface floating with pieces of ice floes, Xiahou Ying looked serious.

"What is Xuanyuan Ze planning this time? Could it be that he wants to cross the river to fight us? Xiahou Ying looked at Nan Rongliang who was standing beside her suspiciously.

"If that's the case, don't worry too much, your eldest brother left all the battleships built by Wei Ziqi to us when they left. Moreover, for more than a month, Wei Ziqi has been rushing with craftsmen, and the two new warships have been almost built. Nan Rongliang raised his hand and hugged Xiahou Ying's shoulder.

"No matter what conspiracy Xuanyuan Ze has, Ying'er, I won't let you have an accident." Nan Rongliang said affectionately to Xiahou Ying.

"Started talking nonsense again!" Xiahou Ying waved away Nan Rongliang's arm on her shoulder a little shyly, gave Nan Rongliang a roll of the eyes with a red face, and went down the city tower.

Looking at Xiahou Ying's somewhat flustered back, Nan Rongliang couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth.

==============

It was night, and everyone had fallen asleep, when there was a brass bell from a distant direction, and after a while, the sound of gongs and drums replaced the bell.

Xiahou Ying, who was woken up, sat up from the bed without knowing it, and couldn't react to what was happening for a while, only vaguely hearing people outside who seemed to be shouting something.

After getting out of bed and putting on her coat, Xiahou Ying walked out of the room.

In the Metropolitan Protectorate, there was already some chaos, and the subordinates everywhere were busy like headless flies. Xia Houying grabbed it for a long time before catching a little girl who was running a little slower.

"What's wrong?" Xiahou Ying pulled the little maid and asked.

"Lu Sheren, something is wrong! It's a big flood! The little maid said anxiously to Xiahou Ying.

"Flooding? What kind of big water? Xiahou Ying continued to ask puzzled.

"Yingjiang! Yingjiang is flooded! The little maid explained anxiously.

"Yingjiang?! How can it be? Xiahou Ying's eyes were full of disbelief, so how could Yingjiang's good and decent people suddenly become flooded?

"It's true! In order to prevent flooding, Yingjiang has a copper bell that can call the police by itself, and it is the copper bell that is calling the police just now! After the little maid finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to Xiahou Ying and ran in the other direction.

Yingjiang water! Xia Houying only felt that her heart was tense as she had never been, and she felt that a real crisis was coming......
