The General's Mansion suddenly became quiet. Except for the squawking of two white cranes, not a single human voice could be heard.

Zhong Ran locked herself in her room all day long. No one knew what she was doing. Only Du Heng came in and out of her room, and even the joy of Zaza Huhu was nowhere to be seen.

Qing Ge saw that the atmosphere in the general's mansion was not right and left with his twin sons without saying hello to Zhong Ran.

Sui Huan then followed him to the Yu Mansion, using the excuse that he missed his father, but actually he wanted to leave the oppressive General Mansion for some fresh air. He asked Yu Zhen if he wanted to go with him. Yu Zhen shook his head and expressed his unwillingness, and Sui Huan left without saying anything more. .

The huge general's mansion suddenly became empty.

Because of the collapse of the Xiashan Dam, the city was not at peace. Every day, people paraded in the streets and made noises in the government offices. The subsidies that the people wanted were not received and the dam could not be repaired. Empress Nangong Yaochu was anxious and worried. She took pictures in the morning. Desk case was furious.

Especially when it comes to the word-of-mouth rumor that she secretly used the national treasury to embezzle the annual inspection and repair money of the Xiashan Dam for Queen Bo's smile, she almost fainted on the spot.

As far as she is concerned, she is the queen of a country, the whole world belongs to her, and the money from the treasury is not at her disposal, so what right do those untouchables have to criticize her?

It took so long for the Xiashan Dam to be built, so some problems were inevitable. However, it was God's blessing that the entire village was not destroyed despite only a dozen lives.

The villagers in Xiashan are also obsessed with high subsidies for silver. If she were not afraid of the opposition of the officials, she would really like to kill the village chief Shen Yang who is the leader of the trouble.

The ministers of His Highness were arguing endlessly. Nangong Yaochu had a headache and asked, "Where is the Grand Tutor? Why haven't you gone to court yet?"

A minister replied, "Taifu Jade has been ill for a few days."

Nangong Yaochu stroked her forehead and shook her head without asking any more questions. Then she focused her gaze on Shangguan Heng, who had been silent all this time, and asked with a cold face, "Why doesn't the Prime Minister speak?"

Shangguan Heng stood up and said respectfully, "The most important thing now is to repair the dam. If the dam collapses, the river water will irrigate the surrounding villages..."

"I know all this, and I'm asking you how to repair it." Nangong Yaochu interrupted impatiently.

The dam suddenly collapsed from one side, and the river flow was so fierce that there was no way to stop it.

Shangguan Heng was silent for a while and then spoke again, "Whoever built it will repair it." After saying that, she retreated among the officials, bowed her head and said nothing.

As soon as these words came out, the silence in the hall could be heard. All the officials lowered their heads and shrank their necks, for fear of being named by Nangong Yaochu, who was in a high position and looked blue.

Whoever built it will repair it...

It took the eldest princess Nangong Miaochu two years to complete the God-killing team...

No official in the government dared to volunteer for such a big project that was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and expensive, because if something went wrong, his head would be lost.

It’s not about who built it and who repaired it.

Just after hearing a bang, a pile of folds was overturned by Nangong Yaochu and fell off the high platform. The ministers were so shocked that they immediately knelt down and shouted.

"Empress, calm down!"

Nangong Yaochu angrily pointed at everyone and cursed, "What use are you? If you can't handle even the smallest things, what are you doing for food?"

Their heads were pressed to the ground, and no one dared to speak.

I don’t know how long it took, but a man stood up, looked directly at the furious Nangong Yaochu on the high platform, and said calmly, "Your Majesty, it is important to repair the dam now. The Prime Minister is right, whoever built it will repair it. This matter only If it can be left to the eldest princess Nangong Miaochu, only she can handle it."

"No! I don't believe it anymore! This Long Yuan can't survive without her!" How could Nangong Yaochu not know who built the dam in the first place, he just didn't want to face it.

She is the empress of a country, and this is the first time such a big accident has occurred in the five years since she took the throne. It is the time when she behaves. How can she ask her sister Nangong Miaochu, who is above her in everything, to solve the problem? What will happen to her face?

If she could accomplish this, wouldn't all these years of suppression be in vain?

A senior official stood up and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Nangong Yaochu with a wave of his hand, "Retreat from the court." He left angrily, completely ignoring the comments of the ministers.

Everyone felt that if this matter was to be resolved perfectly, Nangong Miaochu had to come forward. They knew that the Queen's concerns were just to save face.

But just because of her face, she disregarded the life and death of the people, which also chilled the hearts of some veterans who were loyal to her.

On the day of Lantern Festival, Zhong Ran completely came out of the house. Her mental state was still the same, but her brows were less gentle and more cold and sharp. She looked at the empty General's Mansion with a feeling of sadness in her heart.

Yi Bing left, Xi Yichen left without a harsh word, Wu Bo Wulan was taken back to her parents' home by her biological father to raise her baby, Sui Huan went to find her biological father angrily, and Du Heng Xi Le was sent out to work by her. , she was the only one in Nuo Da’s General Mansion.

It seems that the excitement was many years ago...

Bing'er who made clothes, Huan'er who embroidered bellybands, Xing'er who always smiled brightly at her, and Nao Yichen who was paranoid and awkward but could bring her infinite joy, all left her...

"Meow meow……"

"Meow meow……"

Qi Xiao saw her come out and ran over quickly. He climbed on her body and licked her neck and cheeks affectionately. Zhong Ran's cold heart gradually warmed.

Yu Zhen came over with a tray of food and said happily, "Sister Chu, you are finally out. Try the food I cooked. Today's food is better than yesterday."

She didn't go out these days, and the food was all prepared by Yu Zhen. Let the young master who has no fingers touch Yang Chun Shui cook the food, so you can imagine how bad the taste would be.

Zhong Ran was not in the mood to cook, so he barely ate a little at each meal.

In just a few days, Yu Zhen became visibly haggard, and her deer eyes looked particularly clear and charming.

Her hair was not tied up in a complicated bun with all kinds of delicate flowers, only a gray cloth strip was tied low and hanging on her shoulders. The simple white gown was tied with a belt. It was loose and baggy, as if it could fall off at any time, and her chest was exposed. Pure white.

In this way, he lost his usual agility and liveliness, and showed a delicate charm, which made Zhong Ran, who had been naked for half a month, a little confused.

She took the tray, looked away and said, "Go to Yu Mansion and call Sui Huan back. The medicine in my body has taken effect." After saying that, she was about to turn around and go into the house, but Yu Zhen's slender fingers grabbed the corner of her clothes. Zhong Ran couldn't help it. Look at him understandingly.

I saw that his cheeks were red, he was biting his lips and picking at his fingers. After a long while, he said, "Sister Chu, I can also serve you."

He raised his head and summoned up the courage to say again, "Let me be Sister Chu's antidote. I can bear it. I am the only one."

Zhong Ran stared at him with a pleased smile, threw down the tray and hugged him tightly, clasped the back of his neck with her hands, and kissed the soft lips that made her dream.

"Zhen'er, you'd better be nice to me. Have you thought clearly? Are you sure you want to be my man? Yi Bing, Yichen and the others can't stand me leaving. Are you sure you still want to be my man?" With sore eyes, Zhong Ran tried to control his emotions.

Yu Zhen's mouth was red, and she looked at her with obsessed eyes, as if she wanted to see her in her bones and blood. She nodded firmly and said, "I want to be Sister Chu's person. No matter who you are, I only recognize you as you." With her breath, I will never leave Sister Chu, never."

Finally opening his heart, tears rolled down, he took the initiative to give her a kiss, and then said shyly against her ear, "I learned a lot of things about serving people in the drawing book, and today I want to use them all on Sister Chu. I want to bully Chu." Sister, Sister Chu is not allowed to resist."

"Zhen'er, you are really..." Zhong Ran hugged him tightly. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. He carried him into the house and kicked the door shut.
