I'm his wife, how come I don't know?
Chapter 133 Unwilling
Jiang Chu looked at the Suizhou government office with a calm expression.
Si Ling on the side made a gesture to draw his sword.
"You must obey my orders! If you don't obey, I will find someone else to take charge of this government office."
The Suizhou government office's chest was heaving with anger, but was also hindered by the murderous aura of the tall and mighty masked guards on the side.
He gasped in frustration: "I'll take my leave!"
As soon as he walked out of the door, he started to curse: "I thought he was a hidden talent! Damn, he is just a playboy! What a waste of his face!"
"I'm so pissed off! Damn it!"
As soon as the wages were announced, the refugees and the common people almost cursed Jiang Chu like a hornet's nest.
When the wealthy businessmen in the town saw this, they thought it was a good opportunity for good reputation and great bargains.
We will need workers sooner or later anyway, so why not use them now?
"If the Chen family really wants to renovate their villa, who wants to do it for two cents a day?" The Chen family's steward was ordered to come out and recruit workers.
Although the wages were 20% less than usual, they were much higher than what the government paid!
"I I I..."
Other wealthy businessmen also charge the same price.
The number of refugees who had accumulated due to the drought dropped by 60% in just a few days.
The remaining 40% are mostly elderly, weak, women and children.
Jiang Chu was not stingy in providing relief to these vulnerable groups.
The riot caused by the drought in Suizhou was unexpectedly resolved, except for cursing the Jiang and Chu officials.
In the past few days, the Suizhou government has finally figured it out.
Jiang Chu did this on purpose.
Because after he issued the notice, he did not actually urge the construction of the canal.
That day, he made up his mind, sold a jade pendant in his hand, and bought a few kilograms of fine tea and some gifts.
Come and apologize.
"Knock knock--" A knock on the door sounded.
Si Ling went to watch the door.
The man in the government office smiled and said, "Your humble servant greets His Majesty."
"Long live the prince, long live the prince."
Jiang Chu looked at his guilty expression, suppressed his laughter, and said seriously, "I wonder what the government wants from me?"
Fu Ya put the gifts on the table and fell to his knees.
"I have been blinded by the stratagem and have cursed the prince in private, so I have come here to seek punishment."
Jiang Chu waved his hand and said, "You are a good official. I have seen your hard work these days."
"Regarding this plan, please remember not to blame me."
The Suizhou government office was puzzled: "Why would the prince do this?"
Jiang Chu looked serious: "Of course I have my considerations."
"When it rains here, I will leave."
The Suizhou government office nodded hastily: "I obey your command."
This month, Suizhou’s urgent needs have been resolved.
But if things continue like this, there will still be countless problems later.
Jiang Chu watches the sky every day.
Unfortunately, there is no sign of rain.
Jiang Chu, in plain clothes, was wandering around Suizhou City when he accidentally heard that there were immortals living on Sui Mountain not far away.
Immortals in the mountains are unaware of human affairs.
If someone climbs a mountain in search of an immortal, they can ask the immortal to come down the mountain and cast a spell, and it will rain.
Jiang Chu listened to it.
He glanced at Si Ling and said, "There are immortals in this world, but they are not as good as us..."
Si Ling knew Jiang Chu's character, and it was useless to stop him.
So he nodded and said: "I am willing to accompany the prince."
Jiang Chu made up his mind. He returned to the Suizhou government office and informed the government of his idea. Then he took Si Ling and some dry food and rode two fast horses to Suishan.
The two of them traveled day and night for three days and finally arrived at the foot of Sui Mountain.
The two men dismounted and untied the horses' reins, and they would find grass and water on their own.
Just blow the whistle when you go down the mountain, and they will come naturally.
Looking at the towering mountains and the winding and steep mountain roads.
Si Ling's eyes flashed with worry: "Suishan is dangerous, Your Majesty, why don't you tie a rope around our waists, so that I will definitely catch you."
Jiang Chu nodded without any pretense: "That's fine."
Four hemp ropes were used to tie the two people together, leaving a distance of more than one meter between them.
Si Ling was in front and Jiang Chu was behind as they climbed up the mountain.
Whenever there was no road, Si Ling would use his sword to clear a path.
We climbed like this for a day and a night.
On the morning of the third day, Jiang Chu saw a mountain gate from afar.
This time he could no longer hold on and completely fainted.
Si Ling anxiously picked up the person and flew into the mountain gate.
Inside the mountain gate, the little gatekeeper Zhuzhu was frightened when she saw a mortal entering.
"You, you, you, who are you?" Zhuzhu had a red dot between her eyebrows, and her whole body was white and plump like a porcelain doll.
Pointing at them with his hands on his hips.
Si Ling held Jiang Chu horizontally and said to Zhu Zhu, "He is the ninth son of the Sui Emperor, and he has come here to look for immortals."
Zhuzhu pursed her lips, knowing the rules of her master's sect.
Anyone who has the ability to find the Immortal Gate must inform the elders and master within the gate.
Zhuzhu glanced at the handsome and cold Si Ling, and then at the noble and fair Jiang Chu who had fainted.
Thinking it was another mortal who came to seek immortality, he said without much enthusiasm, "Wait a moment, I'll ask the elder."
Zhuzhu took out a jade slip, which glowed with light and revealed the face of an old man.
The old man was serious but extraordinary: "Elder, a mortal has set foot here."
Zhuzhu turned the jade slip towards Si Ling and Jiang Chu.
The elder had no interest at first, but when he saw Si Ling he suddenly stood up!
"Wait! I'll be right there! My great master! Am I seeing things?"
Zhuzhu looked at the excited elder, confused.
Since she had already been notified, Zhuzhu ignored them, sat down on the mat and continued to doze off.
Not long after, an old man came walking on the clouds.
Looking at Si Ling with great excitement.
The elder with white hair and youthful face trembled with his hands: "Young friend, would you like me to feel your bones?"
Si Ling shook his head: "Please save my prince first."
Only then did the elder notice that there was Jiang Chu in his arms.
The elder stepped forward and felt his pulse, then shook his head and said, "Nothing serious, just a little exhausted."
The elder murmured, "What a pity! This is a mortal bone, without a trace of spiritual roots. It can only live out its life as a mortal."
A look of surprise flashed across Si Ling's eyes, and then he calmed down.
The elder took out a bottle of spiritual water and gave Jiang Chu a drop.
Jiang Chu opened his eyes instantly, and all his fatigue disappeared.
He looked at the old man with bright eyes.
"Fairy..."
The old man smiled and looked at Si Ling: "Can you let me feel your bones now?"
Si Ling nodded.
The elder excitedly placed his hands on Si Ling's head, feeling his entire body.
Finally, he trembled and said, "Golden Spiritual Root Divine Sword Bone! Oh my God! It's actually the Golden Spiritual Root Divine Sword Bone!"
"Young friend, are you willing to join our sect?!" The elder was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.
Si Ling's expression was calm: "I don't want to."
The elder's face fell instantly.
Jiang Chu was also a little surprised: "Are you crazy? Cultivating immortals is something that many people dream of."
Zhuzhu on the side jumped up in anger: "You ungrateful mortal! Do you know how powerful our sect is? Do you know how powerful the elders are?"
"You ignorant mortal, you will regret it later!"
The elder frowned and scolded: "Zhuzhu, don't be rude!"
Zhuzhu pursed her lips and stopped talking.
But he still rolled his eyes at Jiang Chu and Si Ling.
"Judging from my appearance, you and I are destined to be master and disciple. Please accept this jade slip. If you encounter any trouble, just crush it and I will be there immediately." The elder pushed a jade slip to Si Ling.
Si Ling did not refuse this time.
Jiang Chu did not forget his original intention of going up the mountain.
He bowed respectfully and said:
"Suizhou is suffering from a severe drought and the people are living in misery. Please ask the immortals to come down the mountain and pray for rain."
