Chapter 92: Finding an Escape Opportunity

Zhou Yunyi lived quietly in the East Palace of Qi for another two days.

Seeing that it was about to come, the two of them agreed on a good time. Zhou Yunyi was anxious, so far, he has not been able to come up with other ways, if he doesn't agree, Yuwen Yanfeng will definitely be annoyed and angry, and kill him directly, if he agrees, wouldn't he be very sorry for Daxia.

Zhou Yunyi was so anxious that he couldn't eat, in the past few days, the daily food standard was much better than before, at the beginning, he only put a bowl of rice for Zhou Yunyi at each meal, and there were no dishes, but there were two refreshing and delicious side dishes these days, plus a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup.

Zhou Yunyi sat in front of the table and couldn't help sighing.

Yuwen Yanfeng couldn't hold back his temperament anymore, so he came directly in the afternoon.

"How is the fourth princess thinking about it?" Yuwen Yanfeng's first sentence after entering the room was that he hoped to get the answer he wanted from Zhou Yunyi.

Zhou Yunyi was thinking about how to speak. Yuwen Yanfeng said again: "If I hear something from the mouth of the fourth princess that I don't want to hear, it is very likely that I will not be able to control myself. ”

Isn't this a naked threat! If he says a word now, I'm afraid he will really die today.

"I know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also for the people of Qi State, but I, as the princess of Great Xia, if I come to your Qi country to control the water, it won't sound good, right? Besides, I don't have any interest in being an official. ”

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really needs it, I can draw a drawing after the field trip. You build it yourself. In order to save his life, Zhou Yunyi decided to make a success first, and then thought that the water here was bad, and he had to go through field investigation and drawing, plus the construction of the project later.

These add up to obviously not a simple task that can be completed immediately, so if Yuwen Yanfeng is willing to let Zhou Yunyi go after getting the design drawing, it will be the most favorable situation for Zhou Yunyi.

Yuwen Yanfeng smiled and played with the white jade teacup in his hand that was not filled with water. "Does Her Royal Highness feel that she has room to raise conditions now?"

"Why not?" Zhou Yunyi said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was able to tie me up thousands of miles away, which means that the whole Qi country is really a headache about the flood, if I die now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should also have a headache!" ”

Zhou Yunyi calculated that Yuwen Yanfeng needed her now, so he would definitely not kill her for a while, so Zhou Yunyi had to talk about the conditions that should be negotiated before he was very useful, even if this condition might just be a bunch of bubbles in the end.

"You're a smart man." Yuwen Yanfeng looked at Zhou Yunyi with a smile.

Yuwen Yanfeng didn't answer positively whether he agreed to the conditions Zhou Yunyi said, I just said, "You have a good rest today, and I will take you to the field tomorrow to investigate the disaster." ”

Yuwen Yanfeng put the white jade teacup directly on the table, and then waved his sleeves and left directly.

Zhou Yunyi took a deep breath for the fact that he had escaped today.

Because Yuwen Yanfeng was going out tomorrow, he ordered the subordinates of the East Palace to take good care of them and use the horses at home to pull the carriage.

This news reached Ouyang Qingqing's ears, Ouyang Qingqing has always been worried about Yuwen Yanfeng's protection of Zhou Yunyi that day, and for so many days, Yuwen Yanfeng has not asked her. even treated her as the air of the East Palace.

It was three days and two ends willing to run to Zhou Yunyi's house. Ouyang Qingqing, the whole person was even more angry, and regarded Zhou Yunyi as a nail in the eye.

However, since that day, Yuwen Yanfeng has directly guarded the guards outside Zhou Yunyi's room as if he was deliberately protecting Zhou Yunyi, and Ouyang Qingqing's people have no way to get close to the vicinity of that room.

Ouyang Qingqing began to smash in the room for this reason, when she was angry, she liked to drop things, whether it was an antique from the previous dynasty or a precious jade, in short, everything that could be smashed would be smashed to the ground by him.

All the palace maids and eunuchs who were serving were kneeling on the ground, and the women couldn't raise their heads, after all, their masters were short-tempered, and when he went up to say a word at this time, he directly came out of Ouyang Qingqing's eyebrows, and Ouyang Qingqing had once directly smashed the vase on it to dissuade her from the palace maid. The palace maid who was smashed was bleeding at the time, and I heard that although she didn't die later, her brain was also smashed very badly.

Ouyang Qingqing smashed everything in the room before she slammed the chair on the table hard.

"Come on, I'm thirsty, hurry up and pour me a cup of tea."

When the little palace maids heard this, they immediately went to pour a pot of hot tea and replaced it with a new set of glass cups.

Liuli is Ouyang Qingqing's favorite, she drinks tea with a glass cup when she eats on weekdays, and uses a glass teacup, in short, as long as she likes it, she has to change it to Liuli.

You know, in ancient times, glazed products were very difficult, and the firing process was extremely cumbersome, and it was not easy to get a beautiful glazed tableware.

But even if it is such a precious glass product, it is better to move forward, you mean to smash it, for example, just smashed a set of glass tea sets, this is not a small palace maid just replaced her with a new set, you must know that these glass teacups are rewarded by the emperor of Qi, and the number is also very rare.

Originally, there were only six teacups in the East Palace, but later, some ministers who received the letter knew that Ouyang Qingqing liked the glass teacup, so they specially transferred the glass teacup to Ouyang Qingqing. Otherwise, the glass teacups would have been harmed by Ouyang Qingqing a long time ago.

"What is that stinky woman doing in the room?" Ouyang Qing asked.

Although Ouyang Qingqing's people were not allowed to enter the room, Ouyang Qingqing did not give up, and still sent an informant to stare at the side, although he couldn't see with his eyes, but through the voice and the frequency of the next person's appearance, he could also guess a thing or two.

"Back to the crown princess, I heard that there is no movement in the house now, I guess I am sitting in a daze."

"Stinky woman, she has only been in the East Palace for a few days, and the prince will take her on a trip tomorrow."

Yuwen Yanfeng did not mention the matter of controlling the flood to outsiders, after all, the wall has ears, for fear that this matter will be known by Ouyang Feipeng, the king of the southwest, and he will come to cut off Hu when the time comes. So he claimed that he was going out on an outing tomorrow.

Ouyang Qingqing heard that it was an outing, and Yuwen Yanfeng had never mentioned this matter to him at all, but he brought Zhou Yunyi, who was nameless and disposing, with him, so he was naturally angry.

The carriage prepared by Yuwen Yanfeng the next day stopped at the gate of the East Palace, and Hou Sanshui was sent to bring Zhou Yunyi out.

After Zhou Yunyi came out, he was not counted in other chains or anything like that, presumably Yuwen Yanfeng also knew that he didn't know martial arts, so there was no need for that at all.

Zhou Yunyi got into the carriage and arrived at a place in Qi that was tormented by floods.

After Zhou Yunyi got out of the carriage, he was shocked by the scene in front of him, the situation here is indeed very shocking, many times worse than Xiangcheng.

"The fourth princess takes a good look at the surrounding environment and the extent of the disaster."

"The flooding here is much worse than in Great Xia." Zhou Yunyi gave a general evaluation.

Yuwen Yanfeng put his hands behind his back, how could he not know that the situation of the flood was very bad now, "It's really bad, but money is not a problem, as long as the fourth princess can help me give a plan and draw drawings, don't say it's 2,000 taels of silver, even if it's 20,000 silver, it's not a problem." ”

No matter how much money it costs this time, he must deal with this flood well, because only in this way can he save his reputation in front of the people and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and press his uncle Yuwen Feipeng in the southwest.

Previously, when discussing the flood in the court, because the dungeon of the Ministry of Water Resources was helpless, in the end, the king of the southwest directly put forward a very shocking proposal, that is, to directly abandon the governance and let the flood develop freely, anyway, the worst result is to flood that place into a river, and let that part of the disaster people fend for themselves.

After Ouyang Feipeng's proposal was finished, the court was silent, and no one dared to agree with what he said, because this proposal was a dehumanizing approach. But no one dared to stand up against it, because the throne of the southwest was high and powerful. The petty officials did not dare to offend. The powerful officials didn't want to offend the king of the southwest because of this little thing.

After Yuwen Yanfeng heard this proposal in the court at that time, he also frowned, with his understanding of Ouyang Feipeng. This person is the most important to his reputation on the outside, even if he makes such an inhumane suggestion in the court now, if one day this suggestion is forced to be implemented, he will never admit that he has said so, but will dump the pot on others. This is already his usual method.

Zhou Yunyi began to carefully observe the flow direction, flow rate and local geological structure of the lake, and studied how to control the floods in Qi country.

Zhou Yunyi's serious appearance is very cute, Zhou Yunyi is the kind of person who may not seem to have any ability on weekdays, has nothing to do, and even has some little decadent salted fish, when he encounters things in his professional field, he will become invincible and serious.

Zhou Yunyi conducted a one-day investigation on the ground, and roughly understood the local climate, topography and water flow characteristics of Qi country, and obtained a simple preliminary data by calculating it.

Because the sky was getting dark, they could only return to the East Palace first, and then measure the rest of the data when they had a chance to turn back.

Zhou Yunyi didn't bother to eat lunch because of this day's work, and waited until he was in the carriage. When he returned to the East Palace, it was already evening, and Zhou Yunyi was a little hungry and had no strength. When she got out of the car, she had to step on a stool, but because she was a little dazzled, she almost stepped on the air and fell, but fortunately, someone helped her in time.

"Thank you." Zhou Yunyi didn't see who Fu was, so he blurted out the words of thanks.

"No thanks." Yuwen Yanfeng said. "Send the fourth princess back to the room to rest, and send the fourth princess to the room after dinner."

After Hou Sanshui heard this, he led Zhou Yunyi back to the original room.

Zhou Yunyi was thinking about whether there was a chance for her to escape? But apparently from the moment she returned to her room and the door was locked again, she didn't find any chance to escape.
