Chapter 172: A Great Drought Is Coming

The Lantern Festival passed like this, and the days soon came to the end of the first month, and the great drought was already predictable.

At this time, simple houses were being built ten miles outside the four gates of the capital.

Although the people did not know who built it or what it was for, they knew in their hearts what these houses were built for.

Not only are there houses, but there are also deep wells, and water will only come out when the wells are drilled underground.

It's not that Dongchen Kingdom hasn't experienced natural disasters, almost every year, but there are big and small.

In the event of a natural disaster, a large number of victims flock to the capital to seek refuge.

Therefore, the people of the capital were not surprised to see it, but it caused panic, and many people began to prepare.

After Feng Yuntian learned the news, it was estimated that it was done by King Xian and the eldest princess, and she also arranged for people to build some simple houses on Zhuangzi, and also to dig wells.

She can do as much as she can, and the ill-gotten gains in the space can be used for this.

And she also bought a few houses, these houses are in the north of the city, the yard is in disrepair, but it is very large, and the price is cheap, and it will be used to shelter the victims in the future.

At least 500 people can live in these houses.

And after the great drought, these houses are very useful.

After the great drought, all the ruins are waiting to be built, and these houses can be converted into workshops, and they can do anything.

In his previous life, someone did this, and he made a lot of money.

At that time, silver was not rare, but materials were rare.

What happened in the capital city quickly reached the ears of Emperor Mingde, and this time he did not sit idly by, but issued a series of holy decrees, so that all the officials of Dongchen Kingdom could prepare for drought in advance under his jurisdiction.

Although he is ruthless, he also understands that people are the foundation of a country, that only people can have everything, and that water can carry a boat and overturn a boat.

At this time in Yuehua Palace, Jun Xuanchen looked at Concubine Lan with burning eyes: "Mother, what you said is true?" ”

Concubine Lan gently stroked the Kodan she had just made, without even raising her eyelids, and said quietly: "Yes, is it possible that my son doesn't want to sit in that position?" ”

"Of course, Erchen wants to let the mother concubine sit on the position of the most noble queen mother, no longer be angry with those people, and no longer kneel and kowtow to those people."

Jun Xuanchen said that he was full of righteous indignation, and he swore that it was like Concubine Lan had suffered a great grievance, and she would definitely find a place for her.

Concubine Lan smiled: "The concubine knows that you are a filial person, and the concubine can't wait." ”

As soon as Jun Xuanchen heard Concubine Lan's words, he knew that there was something in the words, and he asked in surprise: "What is the plan of the concubine?" ”

Concubine Lan raised her eyebrows: "Didn't you notice the movement outside the city?" ”

Jun Xuanchen was puzzled: "What does this have to do with that?" ”

Concubine Lan blew her fingernails and looked at this stupid son: "There will definitely be a big drought this year, and there will definitely be a lot of victims pouring into the capital, with your father's character, he will definitely send an army to suppress it, and once it is suppressed, it will cause a riot, so ......"

Jun Xuanchen immediately understood, and he asked, "At that time, our people were too late." ”

Their people are all at the border, how can they transfer people to the capital in time.

Concubine Lan raised her eyebrows: "What's too late, your grandfather has already arranged it." ”

When Jun Xuanchen heard this, he couldn't help himself with joy, he clenched his hands and paced back and forth in the palace, his face full of joy.

He thought that he didn't know when this day would come true, and he didn't want to come so quickly, and a look of tiredness flashed in his eyes, since this was the case, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

Recently, Emperor Mingde has been looking for trouble with him, and those eyes are staring at him every day, so that he can't let go of his hands and feet to do things.

He hates the feeling of dying, and he hates dying of Emperor Mingde even more, obviously he has so many sons, and he knows that there is more than one of his sons plotting, why just keep an eye on him?

"Mother, the son is out of the palace, and some things have to be arranged in advance."

Concubine Lan snorted, and said word by word: "Be careful, you must not show your feet, otherwise our mother and son will be doomed, and we can only succeed and not fail." ”

"Hmm."

Jun Xuanchen nodded firmly, and then walked out of the palace.

In Mobei City, General Huang received two letters one after the other, and he immediately burned them after reading them.

"Come on, bring General Bai Shen to General Ben."

"Yes, General."

When General Huang's words fell, he remembered the echo of the soldiers outside the tent, and then there was the sound of footsteps in the distance.

It didn't take long for Chu Yunjin to be called.

"The last general will see the general."

"White ginseng will be pleased."

Chu Yunjin: "General Xie." ”

General Huang pointed to the seat opposite and said, "Sit down and talk, General Ben has come to you for something important to tell you." ”

Chu Yunjin's eyes flashed, knowing what General Huang was looking for him, in his previous life, it was at this time, General Huang would leave for the capital.

He arched his hand and said, "Thank you, General." ”

So he sat opposite General Huang.

General Huang waved back the soldiers outside the tent, personally poured a cup of tea for Chu Yunjin, and then slowly spoke: "How many years will Bai Ginseng join the army in Mobei, right?" ”

Chu Yun nodded solemnly: "It's the fourth year of this year. ”

General Huang sighed: "The days go by so fast, it's been almost five years since General Ben came here in a blink of an eye, but there has been no major event in the past five years, so that General Ben has no blood, but there is nowhere to squander." ”

Chu Yun smiled and sneered in his heart, he wanted to rebel with him, but he said it so high-soundingly, and he was still full of blood but had nowhere to sway it, and following the rebellion would be enough for him to squander.

If the rebellion fails, won't his blood be spilled to the capital?

And this person is not a good thing, he was involved in the defeat of his father, if he was not useful, he would have taken his head to pay tribute to the heroic souls of those soldiers.

It's a pity that he sent people to the Northern Underworld, but he didn't find his father's whereabouts, but he believed that his father was waiting for him to find it.

Chu Yun restrained his mind and echoed General Huang: "Yes, now that the Dongchen Kingdom and the Northern Netherworld Kingdom are on good terms, there will be no war within fifty years, and we generals will be useless." ”

General Huang took the opportunity to say again: "Yes, a good man should have a reward and serve the court, otherwise it will be in vain to have no blood, and he will die here." ”

Chu Yun pretended to regret and said: "It's really a pity, the last general worked so hard just to serve the court, hey, now that the court is stable and the border is calm, we can only stay here, the general is okay, the day he will be called back." ”

General Huang was overjoyed in his heart, this white ginseng general is really a person who is eager for quick success, and when he was promoted to a general, he took a fancy to him.

"Well, General Bai Shen doesn't have to be discouraged, General Ben received a secret decree, it is estimated that there will be a big drought this year, and when the disaster people riot, the emperor ordered General Ben to lead his troops back to the capital and stand by at any time, this is our opportunity to make meritorious contributions."

The so-called secret decree is a holy decree that cannot be made public, and everything must be done in secret.
