"Nine princes."

Inside Tsinghua Palace, Eunuch Su bowed and said respectfully.

The person on the bed finally opened his eyes. There was no light in the room. His eyes were dark and deep, completely merging with the night.

He said quietly: "You go back."

"Yes." Eunuch Su nodded.

The next day, the second prince and others drove out of the palace, and the magnificent palace behind them was getting farther and farther away. They still don't know what earth-shaking changes will take place in the palace.

The wind and rain were about to come, Mingcheng stood on the high pavilion, quietly looking at the gilded copper tiles, the red wall and the green tiles under his feet, one after another, with no end in sight.

"Let's start preparing."

A sentence came floating in the air, Ming Cheng was the only one in the high pavilion, and it was unknown who he was speaking to or who was speaking to him.

All I saw was that he turned around and walked towards His Excellency Gao.

The imperial court was the same as before, boring and indifferent. During the rainy season, it was raining lightly, and the sky was always not clear. Palace people with oil umbrellas shuttled back and forth between the railings, muttering a few words about the weather.

Early this morning, Emperor Longyan was delighted. Hearing that the disaster situation in Tanghe Town had been brought under control, the ministers repeatedly echoed: "God bless me, Taisheng."

The emperor was very happy, Master Shangshu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this is the blessing of the second prince. The second prince must have worked hard at the front line."

A fatherly pride appeared on the emperor's face.

Lord Shangshu said again: "Your Majesty, the second prince is so considerate of the common people, I think you should send someone to go to condolences, and let the world know that your Majesty has taught your son well. We can also grasp the current situation of Tanghe Town as soon as possible, and allocate appropriate funds for disaster relief. Let the people of Tanghe Town survive the disaster as soon as possible, so that everyone in the world will know the love of Taisheng Kingdom for the people."

Emperor Kang Sheng nodded and said, "Ai Qing, who do you think should be sent there?"

"The minister and the champion of the new department are willing to go to share your worries." Li Shangshu said.

An Ran was taken aback, when did he want to go?He turned his head to look at Li Shangshu, he has no friendship with him at all, why drag himself?

Emperor Kang Sheng turned to An Ran, and said: "So, you two go, and bring three hundred silver."

An Ran kept complaining, but at this moment she could only clasp her hands and say: "Yes."

Then he turned his head and glared at Li Shangshu. Li Shangshu didn't look at him from the beginning to the end, but respectfully faced His Majesty.

After going down the court, Li Shangshu slipped away in the blink of an eye, and An Ran only saw the cyan figure flying past.

Heh, he is a flatterer (a courtier who is good at flattery), but he was tricked by another flatterer. You are just flattering yourself, and you still use me to flatter the Lord?

Reluctantly, An Ran set off with Li Shangshu. Before leaving, he met with Ming Cheng: "I'm afraid it will take a long time to go. You are well in the palace." Think of me well~

Li Shangshu was laughing and laughing in front of His Majesty, usually with a serious face, An Ran had cast contemptuous glances at him several times, he was even better at pretending, this is unbearable!

A disaster victim fell to the ground, her hair was gray, her old hands trembled and raised high, as if she was begging for something, and the people around were afraid to avoid her, the old lady moaned from time to time, and her desolate face could be seen What hardships she has gone through.

Li Shangshu frowned slightly, but didn't stop there. Several fast horses still ran towards Tanghe Town, kicking up a cloud of dust. The old lady looked at the horses leaving in the dust with empty and hopeless eyes.

The closer you get to Tanghe Town, the more and more victims there are. When you reach the neighboring town, the victims are already everywhere, relying on the streets and alleys, in a desolate environment.

An Ran's horse stopped slightly, and reined in and drove towards the place where several disaster victims gathered on the street: "The disaster has been contained, why don't you go back? Didn't the imperial court allocate funds? You didn't go to collect it?"

"Where is it restrained? How can I get any money?" a victim said, shaking his head.

"What's going on?" An Ran asked.

Another victim looked at An Ran up and down, filled with righteous indignation: "The few princes who came, all the money allocated to them was spent on them, singing and dancing all day long, the county magistrate dared not offend them, we went to sue, and they kicked us out gone."

"Poor world..." another victim said, his face full of desolation.

An Ran froze, tore off the money from her body, and immediately several victims of the disaster snatched it like crazy.

An Ran reined in his horse and chased forward, Li Shangshu was already hundreds of meters away in front of him, when he caught up, Li Shangshu gave him a nonchalant look.

In the evening, everyone rushed to Tanghe Town, the setting sun shone on the streets of the defeated Tanghe Town, and there were wailing sounds everywhere, crying bitterly while hugging the dead.The bodies of those who died were white and swollen, and they seemed to have been dead for a long time. The poor people here are still unwilling to believe that a natural disaster will take the lives of people they live with day and night.

The water level has dropped a lot from the beginning, to the height of half a person, but the entire town of Tanghe is still submerged in water, and all the houses are uninhabitable. People climb on trees, live on the roof, and float on the water with basins superior……

Stopping at the entrance of the town for a while, someone rowed a small boat over. County magistrate Yang waved his hands and shouted: "Lord Wang, Lord Li."

As the boat approached, County Magistrate Yang said with a shy face, "Adults, please come in quickly. The water level here is high, so be careful not to fall."

Li Shangshu nodded slightly, then abandoned the horse, supported the hand extended by County Magistrate Yang Qinqin, got off the horse and landed on the bow of the boat, so did An Ran and the soldiers behind him.

"Adults, I have prepared some warm wine and food. It's a little crude, please don't dislike it." County Magistrate Yang said with a shy face.

In the boat, on a small table, there are indeed wine cups and a few dishes, some dishes that are not taken for granted in the official house. Here, the common people can't even drink a sip of clean water, so why talk about a meal for a meal?

An Ran moved her chopsticks a few times, and looked at County Magistrate Yang: "Where are the princes? How are you doing here?"

There was some sarcasm in An Ran's tone, but at the level of County Magistrate Yang, he naturally couldn't hear it. He smiled flatteringly: "Don't worry, my lords, the prince is fine here, and I dare not neglect you."

An Ran nodded, noncommittal.

County magistrate Yang courteously poured a glass of wine for An Ran and Li Shangshu, and said, "Please, my lords, please speak a few more words of kindness for this magistrate in front of Your Majesty."

An Ran looked at County Magistrate Yang, and the corner of her mouth curled up: "Naturally."

Naturally, naturally, I will truthfully report to His Majesty the good deeds you do here, heh heh.

County magistrate Yang immediately smiled and was even more attentive.

Tick-tick, light rain began to fall outside again, An Ran slightly opened the boat curtain, the rain hit the water surface, causing layers of ripples, which also hit the homeless people.Fearing that the water level might rise again, An Ran sighed inwardly.

County magistrate Yang immediately walked up to him: "My lord, it's windy outside, and the rain is all on you." When he said this, he felt a little guilty, presumably he also knew what a miserable scene it was outside.

An Ran looked at him and lowered the curtain.

County magistrate Yang saw that he didn't say a word, and the guilt in his heart dissipated a lot.

It had been raining for several hours, the boat stopped, and the rain outside still didn't stop, and it didn't even show any signs of weakening.

Magistrate Yang shouted and ordered his subordinates to open umbrellas for the two adults and the soldiers behind them: "Be careful, the adults will get caught in the rain, and be careful of your one-year salary!"

Several subordinates were worried, their families were all dependent on them alone, and they could barely survive the flood. If the one-year salary was gone, wouldn't they be allowed to die?

I would rather rain on them than let the adults get a little rain.An Ran walked for a while, and the young man beside him was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his whole body was already wet, as if a basin of water had been splashed on his face. The rain was continuously flowing down his eyelashes and chin. His hands were shaking from being blue with cold.

Suddenly a hand brushed against his frozen hand, and the warm touch made him almost take it off. His eyes were filled with horror, and he thought of his mother, who was still at home waiting for him to eat.

That hand held the handle accurately and straightened the extremely tilted umbrella.

It wasn't raining on top of his head, and the rain hit half of his shoulders. After a while, he came to his senses, and turned his head to look at that person in a daze. different.

The place where Lingyun Pavilion is located is high, and Tanghe Town is the only place that has not been damaged by floods.Gaoge Furnace, those dignitaries are hiding here, and have never come out since entering here.

All the subordinates stayed outside the Lingyun Pavilion, hiding under the eaves with their arms folded to avoid the rain, and several adults entered the Lingyun Pavilion.

The warmth hit the face, driving away all the cold air, and laughter came from inside. The three princes were sitting at the wine table, pushing glasses to change, and the table was full of delicacies from mountains and seas.

"Our number one scholar and Master Shangshu are here." The third prince came over drunkenly holding a cup, "Come and have a drink."

An Ran didn't move, the wine and meat of the wealthy family stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road, these are the people who are talking about.

But An Ran's petty temper is petty temper, he still has to do what he should do, he immediately put on a face, but unexpectedly someone got there first.

Along the way, Li Shangshu, who was silent and pretending to be deep, turned into a silly white sweet again in an instant. He laughed, the folds on his face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, took the third prince's wine glass, and said: "Three princes, Traveling thousands of miles to eliminate disasters for the people, this kind of heart and feelings, the officials really admire."

hypocritical!More hypocritical than him!An Ran cursed in her heart.

The third prince laughed out loud.

Li Shangshu still had a flattering look: "Your Majesty knows that the three princes love the people so much, and he greatly appreciates it in the court. He specially asked the subordinate officials to come to express condolences, and sent 500 taels of silver to make things cheaper for the three princes."

"Father, Long Yan is very happy?" the second prince said.

"Yes, Your Majesty is very happy." Li Shangshu said.

The second prince also laughed and heaved a sigh of relief. Thinking that his father was no longer angry with him, he stood up and said, "My lords, come and eat together."
