Daily life of black skin cub's princess

Gangneung.

Heavy rain.

Lin Han, the magistrate of Jiangling, was pacing sadly in the government office, when the sound of water-laden hooves and squeaking wheels came from outside the gate.

Lin Han's eyes lit up: "Quick! Go and see if it's a disaster relief team!" He received the relief order early, but it was a bad day, and the heavy rain washed away the embankment, not to mention the heavy rain that fell for more than ten days in a row However, Lin Han knew that the delay in the arrival of the disaster relief team was probably due to the heavy rain that delayed the trip.But he can wait, but the people in Jiangling can't afford to wait.

Saying this, but he was thinking about the time in his heart, and there were some faint worries, worrying that he would be happy in vain. If he followed his normal pace, he should have arrived by now, but if he followed the rain, most of the people who came would not be disaster relief... Feeling irritable, I couldn't help but grabbed two walnuts and twisted them in my hands. I meditated in my heart that I should not panic. If I panic, people will be even more confused.

Just as he was hesitating, a voice came from outside the door: "My lord! The rescuers have arrived!"

Lin Han was overjoyed, he didn't want the walnuts in his hand, and rushed to the gate of the house regardless of the pouring rain.When he saw the orderly black armored soldiers, he felt relieved, and when he saw the grain truck escorted by them, he was even more delighted: "The Duke came from a long way to save the whole city of Jiangling, please accept me as an officer—"

Before Lin Han bowed down, the leader quickly said: "I am not a general, please straighten the grain carts and silver carts to shelter from the rain, and send the guards of Jiangling Prefecture to follow us to rescue the general."

Lin Han was a little confused, but he still directed his men to take the grain cart and silver cart to the granary and silver warehouse respectively.

"Could you please elaborate on what happened?"

The leading soldier had already turned his horse's head and said quickly: "We went outside the city because of the heavy rain, so we hid in a ruined temple to avoid the rain, but we met a group of bandits who wanted to rob food and silver. The general led us and them Fight to kill, but one of them wants to set fire to the grain, the general ordered me to escort the grain truck into the city first."

"Who's the general you're talking about?" Lin Han felt a "thump" in his heart, with an ominous premonition.

"General Dingyuan, that is, Duke Wu."

Lin Han's knees softened, why, why was the Duke of the country robbed by bandits on his territory? !

"Quick, quick!" Lin Han hurriedly asked someone to call the guards in the city. He grabbed a soldier's horse and said that he would go to rescue the Duke together. Just as he was holding on to the armor of the soldier in front of him, he galloped out of the city. Then I saw the black-armored guards escorting the grain carts, "Tell these brothers to go with them."

"The general has an order, you must take good care of the food and silver." The soldier in front of him said urgently, but still said with a straight eye, "The general said that this is life-saving money and food, and not a single grain or a copper coin is allowed!"

Lin Han's eyes became hot, and the rain dripped into his eyes along his hair. He wiped his face and shook it heavily: "Little brother, you can hurry up, don't worry about me, saving people is the most important thing."

Although the Northwest Army may not encounter rain once a year, and usually cannot keep up with the heavy rain when marching, the wind and sand in the Northwest Desert are much worse than at this moment. At this moment, there are no heavy grain carts and silver carts, and there is no need to be vigilant if there are any more bandits. The Northwest Army in the Northwest has no burden anymore.

The fast horse ran for two sticks of incense, but Lin Han couldn't help being startled. He thought he was at the gate of the city, but now it seems that there is actually a distance.Counting the time it took for these soldiers to escort the silver and grain trucks into the city, hasn't the Duke of Wu already supported it for a long time?

Finally, Lin Han saw the ruined temple hidden among the branches on the hillside, and he smelled a bloody smell from a distance, a bloody smell that even the rain could not block.

"Hurry up!" Lin Han shouted again and again. The soldiers moved faster than him, but the hillside had many dead branches and was muddy due to the rain, and these war horses did not climb uphill often, so they couldn't go uphill.They had no choice but to get off their horses and run up the mountain. Lin Han stepped on a puddle of water as soon as he got off his horse. He glanced casually, and almost sat on the ground with his knees giving up.What he stepped on was not rain, but blood.

Lin Han is not as physically strong as these soldiers. He was already out of breath when he climbed the hillside and ran to the ruined temple. He saw that the soldiers did not come forward but surrounded the ruined temple. People all over the place had wounds on their bodies, but they seemed to still be breathing, and blood flowed from their wounds.After seeing their outfits clearly, Lin Han breathed a sigh of relief. They were not dressed as soldiers, but they must have been robbing bandits.

But what about Wu Guogong?Lin Han looked around and guessed that more than [-] people fell down. If these people were injured like this, isn't it bad luck for the Duke?

"Please, please forgive me." A man shrank behind a wounded person, ignoring the painful groaning of the person on his body, and moved the person just to get in front of him.

"A ruthless person, what use is it to forgive you?" While speaking, a Buddhist bead came out of the air, cut off the rain curtain, and hit the shoulder of the man who hadn't hidden it, with a "poof", A mouthful of blood spurted out, right on the back that he used as a shield.

Lin Han followed the direction of the beads and saw a black-clothed young man with his hair tied behind his back with cloth strips and a soft armor on his shoulders in the heavy rain, stepping on the eaves condescendingly. I took a string of beads.

Compared with the soldier's armor, this man is much thinner, but the aura exuding from his body cannot be underestimated.

Someone shouted: "The general is mighty!"

Afterwards, the surrounding shouts were loud, and amidst the cheers one after another, Lin Han realized that this young man turned out to be the Duke of Wu who had repeatedly made outstanding achievements and was appointed as the prospective concubine—Wu Xun.

Lin Han, on the other hand, was intimidated by Wu Xun's murderous intent, and he didn't regain his composure until he returned to the mansion. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is the prefect of Jiangling. The Duke has kindness to Jiangling. Please accept my worship."

Wu Xun quickly helped Lin Hanze up: "I came to relieve the disaster in the name of the emperor's prince. In terms of grace, it is also a grace from the court. Master Lin does not need to thank me."

Lin Han was stunned in place, Wu Xun was too amiable and unassuming, which was completely different from the young general who killed the Quartet with his own strength just now.

Seeing that Lin Han was at a loss, Wu Xun handed him the steps: "My lord, I intend to discuss disaster relief with you, but I'm too bloody to enter the study. I wonder if my lord can arrange a bathing place for me and all the soldiers. "

"Naturally, naturally." Lin Han hurriedly called the housekeeper to arrange their accommodation. After a lot of discussion, Lin Han regained his composure, "Duke might as well take a bath and change clothes first, and hold a banquet in the mansion to clean up the dust for everyone."

Wu Xun waved his hand: "Now that the flooded people are homeless and hungry, there is no need to hold a banquet. If your lord is willing to let the cook make some noodles and steamed buns, it is fine. All the elite under my command are the Northwest Army. It is very hard to travel these days."

"The Duke really loves soldiers like sons as the rumors say."

Wu Xun blinked, although he knew it was a compliment, but...he really couldn't give birth to cubs bigger than himself.It can be seen that Lin Han is an honest person, and Wu Xun is too embarrassed to tease him again.

Little did he know that Lin Hanze also gave Wu Xun an evaluation in his heart-a kind person.After he returned to his room to take a shower and change his clothes, he washed his hands and put on three sticks of incense. The Buddha blesses the Buddha. His prayers for the past few days have come true. Even if they are not so clean, they should show mercy to the displaced people.Although Lin Han was born in an official family in Beijing, he was released as an official very early, and he was too aware of the twists and turns in the disaster relief.The imperial court allocated millions of taels of silver, and after layers of exploitation, the local officials finally saw a few 10 taels, which is considered a lot.But now it seems that this Duke is not only clean and honest, but also cares about the people, which is far beyond what he asks for in respect of Buddha.

In the evening, Wu Xun changed into fresh clothes and appeared in the flower hall.Lin Han was already there, and when he saw Wu Xun appearing, he quickly got up to greet him.

Wu Xunxin said that this lord is too polite, and he is still under this lord Lin in terms of official position and grade, but it is not easy for him to surrender his status because he is an imperial envoy, so he can only accept Lin Hanze's sternness. present.What Wu Xun didn't know was that although he was only a General Dingyuan from the third rank, he now had a title, not to mention the magistrate, even a first-rank official would call him Duke when he saw him.

Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Wu Xun simply took the decree written by Lu Xun to Lin Hanze: "This is written by the prince. Later, Master Lin will send someone to count the relief money and food to see if the amount is correct." .”

Lin Hanze: "..."

Although he felt that the Duke was clean and honest, he never thought that he would be too filthy. He had never seen an imperial envoy for disaster relief who would not take a cent in his life.After hesitating, he said: "Naturally, the lower officials trust the Duke, so there is no need to count them."

"How can we not investigate?" Wu Xun frowned, "If someone is greedy for ink, wouldn't it be a fish that slipped through the net? In addition to the treasury, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also moved the private treasury, all for the sake of the people affected by the disaster. To live up to the wishes of the emperor and the crown prince, I also ask your lord to strictly monitor the use of relief money."

Lin Han suddenly realized, yes, Wu Guogong would naturally not be greedy for these money, how could anyone be greedy for his own money?Although Qin Tianjian's words cannot be fully believed, there is some truth to it. Wu Guogong really deserves to be the prospective princess, and his heart, virtue and deeds are beyond reproach.
