Chapter 4: The Limbo Race (5)

"Probably so." Bao Yuan paused, and said: "This child is too ungrown, for the sake of a woman, this makes me feel at ease that I will hand over the country of Dashu to him in the future." ”

"Meng Lang, don't be angry." Seeing that he was annoyed, I felt even more uncomfortable, and hurriedly comforted him softly: "Maybe something happened suddenly, and it is reasonable for Sheng'er to be angry, and it will be fine if he understands it after a while." ”

"Alas......" Bao Yuan sighed quietly: "How can he be so responsible for his temper!" ”

"Meng Lang is in full bloom, and the child's affairs are taught slowly, and he is not in a hurry." Although I comforted him like this, I still thought about whether to ask the Queen Mother for an idea.

However, after thinking about it, I finally felt that it was inappropriate, so I only prayed silently to Sister Taihua's soul in front of the red gardenia, hoping that she would guide Xuan Zhe in the dark, so that he could understand my intention and painstaking intentions in doing this.

A few days later, Xuan Zhe went to Qinghe Palace to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and Jingyi and I were also there, he saluted us as before, and the number was extremely thoughtful, but the faint look on his face made people look cold.

After all, I felt a little sorry for this kid because of the matter of Bing Jade, so I was more attentive and concerned about him than usual, and my words were more gentle and kind.

In the Q&A room, Xuan Zhe was thoughtful and thoughtful, and there was a degree of advance and retreat. After he withdrew, the Queen Mother smiled and praised Xuanzhe to me and Jingyi, saying that he was older than before, polite and thoughtful, and he also respected me as a concubine.

After listening to the Queen Mother's words, I didn't feel a trace of relief in my heart.

Fang Cai Xuanzhe's attitude is very different from the closeness to me before, and even his smile has a sense of life and distance. A chill crept through my heart.

Out of Qinghe Palace, I walked side by side with Jingyi. Seeing my solemn face, Xu Yi said with concern: "Rui'er, why are you so worried? ”

Thinking about Jingyi, she is also a mother, and when I didn't enter the palace, Xuanzhe was raised by her, so I put my worries and worries out in my heart.

Jingyi sighed lightly after hearing this, held my hand and persuaded: "Rui'er, it's useless to worry about things now, I can only slowly persuade and enlighten from the side, I just hope that the child can understand your hard work, and maybe he will get better after a long time." ”

I said in frustration: "Xuan Zhe is not my own child after all, this knot is difficult to solve......"

"No, as the saying goes, 'fertility is heavy, nurturing is more important' Xuan Zhe is a filial and reasonable child, I think he will be like this, but because I don't know your good intentions, so I have some grievances in my heart, and I will find an opportunity to persuade him another day, explain the reason, and ensure him." Jingyi said it confidently, and I was somewhat relieved to hear it.

beat the spirit, thanked her with a smile, and said a lot. Thinking that Xuan Zhe would be able to release the knot in his heart after knowing my hard work, hope ignited in his heart again, and he only hoped that the estrangement between him and the child would be solved as soon as possible.

Three days later, Jingyi told me that he had talked to Xuan Zhe deeply, and now he also understands my intentions and painstaking intentions, saying that he will be filial to me and Baoyuan in the future......

Listening to Jingyi's words, I became happy, remembering that Xuan Zhe had always liked the homemade sugar lotus seeds in my small kitchen, and hurriedly asked Zhiqiu to fetch some of the new ones that were made back then and send them to him.

When Zhiqiu came back, he brought some delicate gadgets, saying that Xuan Zhe was honoring me, and I was full of joy when I looked at it.

However, when I confront Xuan Zhe again, I always feel that something has changed. It was a feeling, I couldn't explain it, I just felt that the cordiality and trust between me and him because of "mother and son" no longer existed.

I said it to Jingyi in private, and she only said that I was thinking too much, but I knew it best in my own heart. Maybe it's not just him who has changed, even I have changed with him, no matter what I do, I still feel that there is something blocked in my heart, pimples, and awkwardness.

Since then, the whole person has always been sullen and has no energy.

In order to relieve my depressed mood, Bao Yuan asked Yichun Yuan Hai You to write "Gukou God Team" at the banquet in June.

Everyone was looking at it happily, but they didn't admit it, just as they were playing the image of the battle of the two dragons, suddenly the sky changed greatly, and the wind suddenly rose. Suddenly, the sky and the earth were dark, and everyone was shocked, like heavy rain mixed with hail.

This heavy rain is a whole day, watching the water of Longyue Pond gradually overflow the stone platform of the winding water corridor, my heart is also faintly uneasy.

Bao Yuan urgently discussed with the courtiers overnight about prevention measures due to heavy rain, and Jingyi and I sat beside the Queen Mother at a loss.

From time to time, there were internal supervisors who were ordered to report the rain to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was anxious and had to take me to the Buddha Hall to pray for blessings......

The next day, Guan Kou reported: "The Minjiang River is rising sharply, the lock is plugged at the dragon, and the iron pillar is shaking frequently." ”

Baoyuan heard the report and rushed to rescue, but the flash floods were frequent, and the water rushed into Chengdu City in the afternoon, and for a time the entire Luocheng and Yangma City became a water town.

Subsequently, the flood washed away the Yanqiu Gate again. It is reported that the water in the city was so deep that thousands of drowning houses were drowned, and finally the Si Tianjian and the four rooms of the Taimiao Temple were destroyed.

When I accompanied Bao Yuan to the city tower, I looked at the former prosperous inner and outer cities soaked in a vast ocean. The rushing water carried broken trees, washed away houses, and bridges......

When I saw the drowning people and animals floating and sinking, and the besieged people not far away, I was already full of grief in my heart.

Raising his eyes to look at Bao Yuan, his eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were already shining.

Holding hands with him, hoping to give him some support and strength, he has been working tirelessly these days to assign people to help the victims of the disaster, and even to open the treasury to help the affected families. However, manpower seemed so insignificant in front of Tianwei......

This time, the flood entered the city, destroying more than 1,000 houses and drowning more than 5,000 people. Bao Yuan was in a heavy mood when he heard the report, and immediately issued an edict to amnesty the whole country, and led the people to pray for the peace of the country and the people.

But the disaster does not go alone, and the sky does not follow people's wishes.

In July, the ghost town landslided, the storm was so big that it destroyed countless houses and drowned people.

Just when Bao Yuan was busy fighting floods and disaster relief, there was another "Wude Army Rebellion", and for a while, I saw that he was anxious and had trouble sleeping.

In addition to being angry, he reported it to me. Fang Zhi was because Wu Dejun (Zhizizhou, now Santai, Sichuan) imprisoned Wang Yingpi to kill the town marshal Guo Tingjun, and slaughtered Guo Tingjun's entire family, and later opened the treasury to reward the soldiers, released the prisoners privately, and sent them to the tun.

Bao Yuan ordered Zuo Feng Shengdu to command Sun Qin to lead the people to attack, and soon reported that the conquest army won a complete victory, and then beheaded Wang Yingpi and his pro-party, and sent his head back to Beijing to show the public to set an example.

Fang pacified the rebellion of the Wude army, and Guanzhou reported the disaster again.

Bao Yuan ordered Prime Minister Fan Renshu to pray to Qingyang Temple, praying that heaven and earth would see mercy and avoid disasters. Subsequently, he sent an envoy to Guanzhou for disaster relief and reassurance.

The side was properly handled, and Xiu Yuanju, the mother of the princess of the Luan Kingdom here, suddenly fell ill and passed away in just a few days.
