In the book, the princess of the fallen country saved the country by eating melons

The drought in Yuezhou is really difficult to solve because there are too few river tributaries.

Apart from the main river in Shuozhou, there are many small ditches and winding rivers below.

Judging from the state of these people, those ditches should be almost dry.

Mo Sheng obviously also thought of these situations.

She asked Xiao Ba with a serious brow.

[Xiao Ba, is there any way to scan the nearby terrain to see if there is any underground water source within a few kilometers?]

[It can temporarily solve the plight of the people in Yuezhou. It is not very realistic to open the sluice gates and release water from Shuozhou.]

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ba had to expend energy to start a large-scale scan. Fortunately, it had encountered an energy node before.

Find a way to store large amounts, so you don’t have to worry about running out of energy.

System: [My dear master, Xiaoba scanned the area and found an unexpected surprise]

Mo Sheng's eyes lit up and he asked Xiao Ba with anticipation.

【What a pleasant surprise】

Xiao Ba projected the scanned three-dimensional map of Yuezhou in front of Mo Sheng's eyes and motioned her to look at it.

Mo Sheng looked at the three-dimensional map in front of him and found that there were several blue streams flowing about ten meters underground in the mountains not far from Yuezhou.

Looking at the proportional width of the water flow it is quite wide.

Mo Sheng rarely showed a look of ecstasy on his face.

[Xiao Ba, is there an underground river in Yuezhou?]

When Mo Jinyi heard this, he was stunned. He was overjoyed in his heart, but his face did not show any fluctuation.

He was waiting for the elf to give a definite answer.

Xiao Ba sat calmly in the space and spoke to Mo Sheng with certainty.

System: [My young master, this is of course true. Xiao Ba just scanned and found that Yuezhou is a karst landform, which leads to many underground rivers, but the surface cannot hold water at all.

The water source that the people just discussed is also a small amount of water that flows through the surface.]

When Mo Sheng heard Xiao Ba's certainty, she immediately considered another aspect.

[Xiao Ba, can these water sources be used as drinking water? What if the minerals in them are toxic, especially those heavy metals?]

System: [My little master, don't let your paranoia get so serious. Xiao Ba has already scanned it. These water sources are not poisonous, but the mineral content is a bit high. They cannot be consumed for a long time, as it will put a burden on the human body.]

Xiao Ba sighed helplessly and said to his little master.

Mo Sheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was non-toxic, it was good. As for the mineral content, the most important thing now was for the people to survive. They couldn't care less about the content of the three minerals in the water.

She looked at her father.

[Father, we have found the source of water. Why don’t you go find someone to investigate?]

When Mo Jinyi heard her thoughts, the corners of his mouth twitched, but she didn't say it explicitly or hint at it.

What kind of excuse is he going to make to say that he knew about the water source?

But why did Xiao Sheng'er say that today? It seemed as if she already knew that he could hear her thoughts.

Mo Jinyi looked at Mo Sheng suspiciously, and Mo Sheng looked at his suspicious eyes.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled at him knowingly, indicating that she already knew his secret.

[Father, don't doubt it, it's what you think it means]

She originally wanted to keep it a secret, but every time she found out something, she had a hard time finding an excuse.

Especially now that she can't speak clearly, it's even more difficult to find excuses.

Mo Jinyi was shocked when he saw her frank smile. Sheng'er's insight was really sharp, and he didn't know when she noticed it.

He thought he usually hid it very well, and he was a little curious about how she knew it.

No one would feel happy if their thoughts were known by others, and they should even feel scared. So why was Sheng'er so calm?

But now is obviously not the time to discuss this issue.

Mo Jinyi put away his curiosity and understood each other tacitly.

However, Mo Jinyi had another worry.

That means Sheng'er doesn't need to make excuses, but he has to find one.

You have to know that they have just arrived in Yuezhou City and they don’t even know the situation clearly. It would be reasonable for him to find some excuse to reveal the source of the water.

Seeing that her father knew what she meant, Mo Sheng stopped talking and went to play by herself.

Mo Jinyi glanced at Mo Sheng with resentment, and Mo Sheng felt the gaze of his father.

Somewhat inexplicable.

[Father, why are you looking at me like that? Why don’t you deal with the matter at hand?]

Mo Jinyi twitched his lips helplessly, glanced at his daughter accusingly, and spoke to Li Desheng in a deep voice.

"Li Desheng, the drought here is so severe, but I and the court are completely unaware of it. Where are the officials here? Summon them to see me."

When Li Desheng heard Mo Jinyi's instructions, he put away the kind smile he had just shown to Mo Sheng and nodded to Mo Jinyi with a serious face.

He turned around and ordered someone to invite the local officials to Mo Jinyi.

Then Li Desheng spoke to Mo Jinyi in a respectful and tentative tone.

"Your Majesty, this place is very windy and sandy. Let's take the little princess to the inn and wait."

Mo Jinyi nodded and carried Mo Sheng towards the post station in the city.

Li Wenjun, 3 kilometers away from Yuezhou City, was maintaining order for the people to get water at the new water source they had found.

Then he saw his followers respectfully leading a man who was dressed in ordinary clothes but had an extraordinary demeanor towards him.

Li Wenjun was a little confused. This follower of his was called his follower, but in fact it was his family who was afraid that he would encounter danger when he went out.

It was specially equipped for him and he said that he was a master who was invited back from somewhere unknown.

He had never been treated so politely before. Who was he that could make him be so respectful?

The attendant came to Li Wenjun, and before Li Wenjun could say anything teasing, the attendant took the lead, bowed and saluted respectfully, then whispered in Li Wenjun's ear.

Li Wenjun had never seen him so respectful before. She was a little curious and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

"Sir, this person is from the capital, and he said that His Majesty wants to see you."

Li Wenjun was shocked when she heard his words.

Why would His Majesty come to him? This place is not the closest route for him to return to Beijing.

He looked at the person sent by Mo Jinyi, smiled and nodded.

The tone is gentle.

"Sir, do you have any token of support?"

The visitor handed the token in his hand to Li Wenjun and asked him to check it.

Li Wenjun carefully looked through the token several times and confirmed that it was authentic.

He had to believe that it was indeed His Majesty who wanted to see him.

He handed the token back and asked the visitor in a tentative tone.

"Sir, I wonder what the emperor has come here for."

The visitor ignored his temptation. After seeing that he believed in his identity, he directly told him the task that Mo Jinyi had assigned to him.

The voice was cold and hard.

"Master Li, the master is still waiting for you at the post station, please don't keep him waiting for too long."

When Li Wenjun heard the warning from the person who came, he raised his hand to wipe the non-existent sweat from his forehead.

He replied with a gentle smile to the visitor's tone, and turned to his horse.
