Chapter 165: Folk Rumors

Everything was arranged, and it was almost dusk when Shangguan Jiyue and Huangfu Chen came out of the palace. Walking on the sparsely populated street, Huangfu Chen turned his head sideways to look at Shangguan Jiyue, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook.

"Li Yi's ambitions have been difficult to pay for many years, and he has long been disheartened by the current situation, and today you want this king to use him so much, I believe that he will definitely live up to the trust, and govern the land in the middle of the river in an orderly manner for the benefit of the people."

"The Lanjiang River has been flooded for many years, and the people in the river are miserable, and tens of thousands of people die in floods every year, but since Li Yi succeeded to the palace, he is not afraid of difficulties and refines water conservancy, and the Lanjiang River has gradually stabilized. He was originally the most suitable candidate, but he was suppressed by Taishou before and was not allowed to display his ambitions. Now, it is reused for him because he is indeed a talented person. Shangguan Jiyue said with a smile.

"Yes! In either case, he is indeed the most suitable candidate for Taishou. ”

"Suitability is only one aspect, the most important thing is that he has a pure heart, a person who is dedicated to the people and the well-being of his homeland." Shangguan Jiyue's eyes drooped slightly, and she sighed slightly, "After all, in this world, there are too few people who can really do things for the people. ”

"Yue'er, you are so smart and transparent, your eyes are like torches, and you have taken a fancy to Li Yi at a glance among the many personnel lists, sometimes, this king is thinking, if you are a man, it is not a problem to be a supplement."

"For the complementary?!" Shangguan raised his eyes to look at Huang Fuchen and smiled lightly, "Where do I have the talent to supplement each other, not everyone can become the Fengjing of the year." ”

"Yue'er is saying that more than 20 years ago, Nanchi's young prime minister was pure?"

"That's right, it's him!" Shangguan Jiyue nodded, "The talent of Fengjing back then, although he was a weak scholar, but he had a good bearing, and he won the champion laurel at a young age. But for some reason, Feng Jingzhi suddenly disappeared after only two years as prime minister, as if the world had evaporated, and there was no trace. Until now, there are different opinions, and there is no truth. ”

Huang Fuchen was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said suspiciously: "The king of Fengjing has also heard rumors about him, but if the prime minister of a country disappears inexplicably, hasn't the Nanchi royal family investigated it?" ”

"I don't know this question very well, I was not born at the time, and I heard my father mention it by chance later, saying that after Feng Jingzhi disappeared, the Situ royal family not only did not say anything, but ordered the people not to discuss this matter privately, and those who violated the order were punished according to the crime of resisting the order. Over time, no one dared to mention this matter anymore, and it was slowly forgotten by the world, and now the people who can remember Feng Jingzhi are only afraid that there are few people in the world. ”

"It's really a pity to have such a character." Huangfu Chen said regretfully.

"There was a rumor among the people back then, and I don't know if it's true."

"What rumors?"

"It has to do with the wind and purity."

"Oh?" Huangfu Chen raised his eyebrows, "Yue'er talk about it." ”

"The one who disappeared with Feng Jingyi back then was Princess Pingluo of Nanchi." Shangguan Jiyue said slowly, "Legend has it that this princess of Pingluo looks like a fairy, and is known as a rare beauty in the south for thousands of years. It is even rumored that the little princess's crush is the young prime minister. But unfortunately, the little county lord suddenly contracted a vicious illness and died, and then Feng Jingcai disappeared inexplicably. There are many people who speculate that Feng Jingzhi was martyred for this princess of Pingluo. Some people also say that the death of Princess Pingluo is fake, and the elopement with Fengjingzhi is true, so the Situ royal family is afraid of their royal face, so they ordered the people to prohibit talking about this matter. ”

"Talented and beautiful, it's really a romantic story. It's just that now the life and death of the two are unknown, and I am afraid that there is no way to know the truth of the matter. ”

"Actually, if the two are really in love, I would rather believe that they eloped for love and returned to the mountains and forests. At least, this way, they have lovers who can end up married. ”

After not receiving a response from Huang Fuchen for a long time, Shangguan Jiyue couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Huang Fuchen, but saw that he was staring at herself without blinking.

Shangguan Jiyue was stared at by him, her face was red and her heart was beating, her eyes lowered slightly, and she said angrily: "What are you looking at?" It's not like I haven't seen it. ”

"But Yue'er makes this king never get tired of looking at it, even if the princess Pingluo of Nanchi is as beautiful as a fairy, in the heart of this king, it is less than one ten-thousandth of Yue'er."

Hearing this, Shangguan Jiyue's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head and muttered softly: "Flim tongue!" ”

Huangfu Chen leaned over slightly and whispered in her ear, "Not only that, but this king has to watch it for a lifetime, Yue'er, you are so easy to be shy, and you will become a relative in the future, but what should I do?" ”

"Huangfu Chen!"

Shangguan Jiyue was angry, and glared fiercely at the man on his side, his eyes were full of narrowness, he would tease her whenever he had the opportunity, Qiu Mingfei said that he was a male lion and it was not wrong at all!

The woman's face was full of shyness, anger and anger in Huang Fuchen's eyes, which made him even more happy, the corners of his lips hooked, his long arms were wrapped, and he scooped her into his arms, lightly tiptoed, and flew all the way to the top of the mountain in the distance.

The two figures faded away, but there was a sound in the wind.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Watch the sunset."

The mountains are majestic, the mountains are stacked on top of each other, the forests are verdant, and a man and a woman stand side by side on the high peaks. Looking down, the Lanjiang River crosses like a jade belt, and the rushing and roaring river water also becomes gentle.

Raise your eyes, the red sunset is like a big round ball, gradually falling into the river from the top of the mountain, the sunset is brilliant like a brocade, and there is occasionally smoke rising under the colorful flowing clouds.

The slanting sun is like fire, and the afterglow is not finished, gilding a layer of soft light for the two people who are leaning on each other on the top of the mountain, and it is very beautiful like the fairy couple above the nine heavens......

However, they did not expect that such a peaceful and beautiful time would be shattered by a sudden roar in the middle of the night, and one-third of the entire river would be swallowed up by the water of the Lanjiang River, which suddenly burst its banks.

The rushing muddy river mixed with rocks and sediment, roaring and ravaging every inch of land it passed, landslides, houses collapsed, trees toppled, fertile fields were destroyed, and people were killed and injured.

As far as the eye can see, there is a white expanse of water. The receding flood was littered with whitened human and animal carcasses. Under the scorching sun, it was shocking.

In the face of natural disasters, everything in the world is fragile and insignificant, and even insignificant.

Shangguan Jiyue was soaked, his face and head were covered with mud and sand, his hair was dripping with muddy water, his eyes were scarlet, and the soldiers were desperately in the water, searching for and rescuing everyone who survived this catastrophe.

"Yue'er, you can't stand the cold, you don't want to be here, the soldiers will definitely try their best to save the suffering people." Huangfu Chen waded through waist-deep water, rushed over in a few steps, and looked at Shangguan Jiyue, who was covered in mud and water, and her lips were bruised.

"Get out of the way!" Shangguan Jiyue's eyes were scarlet, "I must save these people, as well as those poor children!" ”

"Yue'er!" Huang Fuchen held her shoulders with both hands, her eyes were full of distress, and she said loudly, "You are sober!" It's been two days and two nights! What can be saved has already been saved, you don't torture yourself like this anymore, it's not your fault! ”

Shangguan Jiyue's body was shocked, her eyes instantly lost their brilliance, her shoulders also fell, and she repeated a sentence: "What can be saved has been saved......"

So, after two days and two nights, is there any chance that no one will survive?

"Yue'er......" Huang Fuchen held her tightly in his arms and stroked her back, "It's all over...... It's all gone......"

Shangguan Jiyue only felt that Huang Fuchen's voice seemed to be floating from the sky, and as soon as his body became weak, he lost consciousness.
