"It's just a normal thing that you love Prince Alcohol, and your mother is angry because of such a big thing, and you don't even say a word!"

Seeing that her mother was not as angry as she imagined, Zhou Zhilan said, "Mother, aren't you angry?"

"What am I angry about, I have already made a plan with your father to help you achieve your wish. ”

When Zhou Zhilan heard this, this heart could be regarded as being put in her stomach, but when she thought of Xiao Xinrong's expression that night, she shook her head and said with a blank expression: "Forget it, the prince Zhengse refused me to serve him with soup that day, he must look down on me, mother, I still don't want to humiliate myself." ”

"What did you say this kid, your father said that the prince drank a lot of wine that day, maybe it was the dim candlelight and the hazy wine, it must have been dazzled and didn't recognize you, since you like the prince, we can't give up halfway. ”

Mrs. Zhou's words rekindled Zhou Zhilan's heart, and she said with hope on her face: "Mother, are what you said true?"

"With my son's outstanding appearance, how can a man not be moved, you just listen to your mother. ”

"En!" Zhou Zhilan nodded with a smile.

Xiahou Shuang didn't know that someone had secretly targeted her husband, and she was accompanying Xiao Xinrong to the farmland to check at the moment.

After walking around, Xiao Xinrong's expression became even more ugly, and after asking carefully, last year's harvest was only half of that of previous years, and if there was a natural disaster this year, I am afraid that there would be more people without food.

"Brother Chun doesn't have to worry, it's only a month before the harvest now, and there will be no situation at this time. Xiahou Shuang looked up at the scorching sun in the sky and comforted.

"The more I get to this time, the more I am afraid of waterlogging, and I hope that God will open his eyes and let these people go in the next time. ”

Back at the palace, the maid handed over a greeting post, which was placed by Mrs. Zhou, and wanted to take Miss Zhou to meet the princess tomorrow.

Xiahou Shuang took the greeting note in her hand: "This Mrs. Zhou is very diligent, and it didn't take long for the last banquet to come to the door again." ”

Xiao Xinrong wanted to tell Xiahou Shuang about the incident in Zhou's mansion that night, but when the words came to his lips, Xiao Xinrong swallowed back.

It is impossible for him to be close to people other than Shuang'er, as for this Miss Zhou, after she finds out the evidence of Lord Zhou's crimes, these delusions will disappear, and she still won't make trouble for Shuang'er.

"Do you want to see them?"

"Anyway, if you're idle and bored, let's come and pass the time together. "If you want to know about the backyards of the mansions in the state capital as soon as possible, Mrs. Zhou has sent the news to the door.

Through Mrs. Zhou, Xiahou Shuang learned about the back house of officials of Yangping Prefecture, which is called a wonderful, Mrs. Zhou saw that Xiahou Shuang listened to it interestingly, and the more energetic the exchanges, the more many times they came and went, and Xiahou Shuang noticed that something was wrong.

Every time this Miss Zhou comes to the mansion to dress up, she mentions the prince from time to time in and out of her words, how can Xiahou Shuang not understand the truth.

Zhou Zhilan saw that the princess had rejected her and her mother's invitations several times, and was a little anxious: "Mother, did you say that the princess was aware of it?"

"I can't imagine that this princess can't be underestimated at a young age, hum!

"Then Mother We ......"

"Don't be afraid, since the princess's path can't be followed, then we will take the prince's road. ”

"Mother's plan?" Thinking of the figure standing proudly, Zhou Zhilan was happy in her heart, and asked anxiously regardless of shyness.

"There is no haste in this matter, let me make a decision after consulting with your father. ”

Zhou Zhilan nodded, full of anticipation.

Before the two of them could figure out a way, a big event happened in Yangping Prefecture.

Xiao Xinrong and the two came just in the rainy summer, and the continuous rain refreshed the amount of rainfall in Yangping Prefecture, Xiao Xinrong had already discussed the flood control work with the Zhou governor, but it still couldn't stop the rolling flood, and the dam in the state burst.

When it rained in the middle of the night, Xiao Xinrong had to make a message, and he didn't dare to slack off and lead the guards to check on the dam.

The scene in front of him was even worse than Xiao Xinrong had imagined, and the rolling flood rushed downstream like a roaring dragon.

Looking down the river, some of the houses on both sides of the downstream were crumbling in the flood, and from time to time you could see the vague figures that were blown around.

"Quick, pull the rope and save people!" Xiao Xinrong was so anxious that he didn't care about the rain and darkness and commanded everyone to go to the rescue.

A group of people also quietly came on the other side of the river, and when the leader saw this, he hurriedly commanded everyone to go into the water to save people.

The sky gradually brightened, the rain finally stopped, and the people who fell into the flood were rescued in turn, Xiao Xinrong organized people to carry sandbags to build a simple river embankment, and then the leader on the opposite side came to meet Xiao Xinrong at this time.

"Who are you?"

"Weichen Yangping Prefecture Governor Xia Zhongmin see the prince. ”

"Good name! Faithful to the people. ”

Xiao Xinrong glanced at the people who were busy behind him, frowned and asked, "Why are they all civilians, people in the official mansion?"

"Wechen has no right to mobilize people in the government, so he has to organize these civilians to come, but fortunately he was not late. ”

Xiao Xinrong pointed to the dam and asked, "This king heard that this dam was built with funds from the DPRK and China last year. ”

"If you go back to the prince, it was indeed built last year. Xia Zhongmin said respectfully: "Governor Zhou has also put a lot of effort into building this dam, but for some reason it broke again this year. ”

While speaking, Zhang Hu walked up to Xiao Xinrong with an object in his hand and said, "Lord Wang, please take a look." ”

Zhang Hu opened his palm, and a handful of fine sand and cement mixed with dazzling white ash, "This is the material used in the dam, and someone has done something in it." ”

"What a big dog's guts! Blatantly corrupt and pervert the law!" Xiao Xinrong felt a wave of anger rise in his heart, and it seemed that the money allocated by the court had flowed into the pockets of the officials.

The people downstream of the dam burst have been severely affected, and how many people will be displaced this year.

"This group of corrupt officials!" Xia Zhongmin was indignant.

"Lord Wang, it's too late for the next official!" Governor Zhou led a group of officials to run out of breath, and when he arrived at Xiao Xinrong's side, he pleaded guilty.

"Governor Zhou slept deep enough last night!"

Zhou Zhifu listened to Xiao Xinrong's words, wiped the sweat on his face vigorously, last night he heard someone come to report, but when he saw that the rain outside was like splashing ink, he couldn't see his five fingers in the dark night, and he was willing to come out of the hot quilt.

Waiting until dawn to come in a hurry, on the way to hear that the prince has been by the river last night and organized to save people, Zhou Zhifu felt that the big thing was not good, but I didn't expect that when I arrived in front of him, the prince was so faceless to say a word.
