Chapter 648: Drain into the Sea
Throwing an iron cable into the hands of the person who took over, Hai Dongqing flew down at Xiao Huayong's feet, the rain drenched its wings, glowing with a dark luster, and the soft hairs on its head were wet and sticky, looking a little less of his usual majesty and more of a dull appearance.
Xiao Huayong, who was holding an umbrella, took half a step back, made a gesture of avoidance, stretched out his arm, and pressed his palm against Hai Dongqing's forehead: "Although I can make a beauty smile, I don't have the right to slack off, so I can stay here and finish things." ”
Patting Hai Dongqing's wings, Xiao Huayong raised his chin towards Shen Xihe and motioned for Shen Xihe to leave with him.
Hai Dongqing's round head was biased, as if he understood what Xiao Huayong meant, and blinked his eyes, so that Shen Xihe didn't dislike its wet appearance, and touched its wet wings.
Seeing the back of Xiao Huayong and Shen Xihe leaving, and slowly realizing that he had been abandoned again, the unhappy Hai Dongqing suddenly fluttered his wings, quickly shook his head, and the rain splashed out, splashing Xiao Huayong's robe.
Xiao Huayong couldn't dodge, looked at the wet corners of his robe, turned his head and didn't get angry, Haidong Qingwei screamed, spread his wings and flew away, the moment he flew away, his claws left the ground, and he kicked a lot of dirt, Xiao Huayong was almost splashed with mud again.
"Poof!"
Shen Xihe, who smiled toothlessly and was silent and joyful, couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Xiao Huayong's tense face and extremely ugly face, Shen Xihe pulled his sleeve robe: "Hurry up and get in the carriage and change your clothes to avoid catching a cold." ”
When facing Shen Xihe, Xiao Huayong's face was a little pale, and he obeyed Shen Xihe's wishes, and got into the carriage in a few steps, there were spare clothes in the car, and only the outer robe was splashed, Shen Xihe took it from Tianyuan's hand and put it on Xiao Huayong in person.
Spread his arms, looking at Shen Xihe, who was kneeling beside him, bending down to straighten his belt for himself, smoothing the wrinkles, the space of the carriage was limited, they were very close, and the green silk of the clouds was faintly fragrant in the wet and cold air, Xiao Huayong's mood suddenly improved.
Shen Xihe didn't know why this person suddenly turned cloudy and sunny, but he was uncertain, and Shen Xihe had already been accustomed to it.
On the way back, the two people had a discussion, both about Dengzhou, detoured most of the way, and met with Mo Yuan, who was guarding the road, the carriage did not stop, Mo Yuan followed the horse, guarding the carriage, and the voice came into the carriage through the curtain: "There are three people chasing after him." ”
Xiao Huayong didn't want to expose their method of transporting grain into Wendeng County now, but it was not easy to cover up his whereabouts, so he directly asked Mo Yuan to stop here early.
"Three-way?" Shen Xihe raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Xiao Huayong.
In addition to Xiao Changqing and Xiao Changyan, there was another person who also watched their every move.
"Dengzhou County Shou is the younger brother of the Marquis of Pingyao." Xiao Huayong said.
The Marquis of Pingyao is His Majesty's confidant, but the Marquis of Pingyao is about to marry King Zhao.
"His Royal Highness King Zhao is also quite thoughtful." Shen Xihe knew who he was instructing as soon as he heard it.
If Gaine was appointed by His Majesty, he would not send Dengzhou County Guard, because it was very simple for His Majesty to know about this matter, and he directly sent a letter to ask, could Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong still hide it?
"It's just a pity that his ability can't be compared to his ambition." Xiao Huayong's tone was flat.
There is not a trace of disdain, but rather a kind of neglect that can be felt without tasting.
Xiao Huayong never seemed to have taken Xiao Changmin in his eyes.
So far, although Xiao Changmin has to keep an eye on everything, he can be regarded as keeping to himself, and he has not shown his minions once, Shen Xihe has never been a troublemaker, Xiao Changmin does not pose a threat to her, and Shen Xihe is naturally not so aggressive that he has to compete with him, and he can be regarded as peaceful.
For Xiao Changmin, Shen Xihe did not make an evaluation, the husband and wife did not return to the house where they settled, but took a detour to the edge of the sea, where Tao Zhuan Xian and others were stationed.
Shen Xihe has always been worried about his grandfather, and it is really difficult to rest assured that he will not come to see it with his own eyes.
Most of the people here have been taken away, and they have been living in their homes, and the villages along the coast, although simple, have not been destroyed because they are not backed by mountains, but most of them are still heavily waterlogged, and some of them leak through the roofs and seep through the ground.
When Shen Xi and them arrived, it happened that Tao Zhuanxian took people to inspect the coast, and the food was cooked in the camp, but it happened that they were useless, and Shangshu Zhongping of the Ministry of Industry stayed behind and accompanied them.
Zhong Ping directly instructed the official office to serve them a bowl of porridge, the porridge was extremely bright, and the dishes were also some dried vegetables, and nothing else.
"Zhong Gong, do you eat these buns on weekdays?" Shen Xihe frowned.
They came from the county, and although it is true that there is a shortage of food now, it is far from this point.
Zhong Pingzhi is over sixty years old, but he is still in good spirits: "Your Highness, don't misunderstand, this is what I did in consultation with Gong Tao." At present, the situation in Dengzhou is worrying, although we are staying here, we have not been able to contribute, and we can have enough stomachs. ”
Who knows when the heavy rain will stop? Who knows when the floods began? They don't know about the grain in Dengzhou, but they have also been magistrates, and they can also calculate that they are not far from ten, and they can save a mouthful, maybe they can live a few more people.
Shen Xihe opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Xiao Huayong coughed lightly, and then said softly: "Zhong Gong and Tao Gong, the backbone of the country, care for the people, and are the blessings of my dynasty." ”
"Your Highness's words are serious, and the ministers are ashamed of it." Zhong Ping said honestly.
At present, the grain has not yet been delivered, although the problem of entering Wendeng County has been solved, it may not be successfully transported to Xiao Huayong, and it is still unknown what is expected to be good, the grain must indeed be planned to be eaten, Shen Xihe swallowed the words of persuasion.
Not long after, Tao Zhuanxian came back and had an evening meal together, and Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong also planned to stay overnight to have an in-depth understanding of the current water potential with Tao Zhuanxian and Zhong Pingzhi.
After the evening eclipse, he went to the beach with them for a walk, and Tao Zhuan Xian pointed to a faint dark shadow in the distance: "Before the rain, the fishermen's fishing boats were parked there. ”
Shen Xihe took a look, and the sea water had already submerged all the fishing boats docked, and even widened the distance of about thirty or forty steps.
Xiao Huayong also looked into the distance: "Tao Gongjue can the sea water rush out?" ”
Tao Zhuan Xian and Zhong Ping glanced at each other: "Your Highness, the minister and Zhong Gong have discussed, and they both think that the sea water will not easily break through the flood, endanger the people, and spread to the township.
The most urgent task at the moment is not the water rushing wildly, but the water in the city to dredge, otherwise the sea water will not become waves, and the city will be flooded. ”
Shen Xihe thought of the situation in the city and couldn't help but bow his head.
"Tao Gong, but it doesn't hurt to say." Xiao Huayong looked at Tao Zhuanxian, who wanted to speak and stopped.
Tao Zhuan Xian hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that there were only four of them, he said bluntly: "There is water in the city, and there is nowhere to release it, only to dig ditches and dig roads to lead it into the sea!" ”
Shen Xihe was stunned, the people were not worried about the stagnant water that didn't reach their ankles at all, what they were afraid of was the sea water, if they ordered to dig ditches and dig tunnels, and introduce these stagnant water that they didn't care about into the sea that made them panic, they were afraid that it would cause panic among the people.
