Chapter 1049 She is his human delusion
Xiao Zhi was possessed again.
At daybreak and in the midst of heavy rain, he stood on the broken embankment of Jiangcheng, with a terrifying light burning in his eyes.
Emperor Wen Xuan, who was disguised as a guard and following Long Jiang, said, "What on earth does my brother want to do? He stayed up all night without sleeping and came to the embankment before dawn."
"The prince summoned officials of all levels to discuss matters on the embankment." Long Jiang was also helpless. "He was seriously injured when he was rescued from the water. When he woke up and went to see the princess, he came out like this."
Guard Nine said, "Let's go and take a look."
Long Jiang responded and ran after Guard Nine.
In front of the dam, the clerk held a map and presented it to Xiao Zhi.
But Xiao Zhi drew seven flood discharge channels with a pen, and the ink spread on the silk. "Here, the channel must be cleared before noon tomorrow, otherwise the water level will rise another three inches and flow back into the main urban area of Jiangcheng."
If the rain continues, the flood will backflow and the city will collapse. Even if the people can evacuate, their homes will be destroyed.
Gao Pinyuan, the Minister of Works, looked up suddenly, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes. The location of the flood discharge channel pointed out by Prince Guizheng coincided with his idea.
Moreover, the importance of dredging here cannot be accurately determined without years of experience in water management.
He bowed his head and accepted the order, "Yes, I will arrange it right away."
Lord Gao observed the weather and waited for the rain to stop before he ordered his soldiers to build a ten-foot-high pile of firewood at the silted-up part of the river embankment.
Until the evening, when the flames burned the river bank red, he waved his hand coldly, "Throw water!"
In the steaming white mist, the silted-up part of the river embankment burst open with a loud bang, and the flood burst out like a trapped dragon.
Seeing this, Long Jiang ran to report to Xiao Zhi. However, he saw that the lights in the simple house were on and Prince Gui Zheng was writing at his desk.
Hearing that the flood discharge was successful, Xiao Zhi showed a tired smile, "That's great."
He also summoned officials at all levels to discuss matters and assigned them to the officials in an orderly manner. His sophisticated style of doing things was very different from when he was in the capital.
Gao Pinyuan and other Beijing officials hated the four great families so much that they even drugged such a good emperor and forced him to abdicate.
They became increasingly worried about King Gui Zheng's health, but as persuasion was ineffective, they had to give up.
Emperor Wen Xuan took advantage of the chaos to quietly bring back some manuscripts and present them to Shi Anxia.
Nineteen articles on epidemic control, seven strategies for keeping the people safe, and a plan for rebuilding dams... After reading them carefully, Shi Anxia fell into deep thought.
Emperor Wen Xuan stamped his feet regretfully, "My brother has a very high reputation among the officials. Even the Minister of Industry Gao praised him for his knowledge and that he was definitely not just talking on paper. Alas! If he had been fine, why would I have to be a puppet?"
He suddenly crouched down and rubbed against An Xia's side, and asked in a low voice, "Royal sister, do you think there is still a possibility..."
"Ah? What did you say?" Shi Anxia raised her eyes and looked at Emperor Wen Xuan.
"I mean, is it possible to let my brother start over again..."
"No." Shi Anxia frowned, "Do you think the change of imperial power is a joke? You should know that every palace coup will damage the country's fortune for at least three years. Every change of imperial power will hurt the foundation and vitality of the dragon vein. You'd better give up this idea."
Emperor Wen Xuan touched his head and obediently gave up the idea.
At that time Anxia gave the order to set off.
The royal procession moved slowly along the official road, with flags and banners winding like a dragon; at that time, the elite rescue troops would gallop lightly and take a shortcut to meet her in Fengcheng.
When Xiao Zhi learned that An Xia had already left Hengcheng, he just nodded slightly and continued to write.
Long Jiang was shocked, but he dared not speak out. In just a few days, Prince Guizheng seemed to have aged terribly.
He couldn't help but remind him again, "Your Highness, your health is the most important thing. There is still a long time to go. You can take your time to write after you recover."
Xiao Zhi didn't even raise his head. "It's too late. I'm afraid one day..."
forget!
He paused and changed the subject, "After reading it, did the princess say anything?"
Longjiang was surprised.
Xiao Zhi waved his hand, "Don't be surprised, the guard is the emperor, I know that. He showed the princess the manuscript I wrote, I also know that."
Long Jiang was a little embarrassed, "They are all returned."
Taking away the prince's manuscript without permission is extremely disrespectful.
Xiao Zhi did not blame him at all, but asked stubbornly, "Did the princess say anything?"
Even just a few words or sarcasm.
Unfortunately, Long Jiang shook his head and said, "The princess didn't say anything and sent her back."
Xiao Zhi finally put down his pen, feeling lost. When he picked up the pen again, he had become calm and indifferent.
Some people and some things should be let go.
In dreams or in reality, she is his fantasy on earth.
In October, Shi Anxia's carriage arrived at the border of Lingzhou. At the same time, the imperial edict of Emperor Yu of Liang State to move the capital shocked all the countries - the new capital was set in Luocheng, Minzhou, which was only separated from Lingzhou in the north by a river.
When the news reached the North Wing Camp, the most excited person was Emperor Wenxuan. "The charcoal seller is a charcoal seller, he is swift and decisive. We have been talking about 'the emperor guarding the national gate' for a long time and we are still planning it, but he just moved the capital directly."
Wei Pingting tilted her head and counted on her fingers, "So from now on, I can eat yogurt in Luocheng in the morning, and go back to Lingzhou to try an ice bowl for lunch?"
Emperor Wenxuan smiled happily, "Of course! How far can a river separate us? You can hear me clearly when I call your name from the other side of the river." He slammed the table and said, "Hey, I have to urge father to move the capital quickly! In this way, the emperors of the two countries will guard the borders and form a barrier... Hahaha, who dares to invade!"
Shi Anxia smiled as she watched the two children jumping back and forth in front of her.
One pretended to be on the other side, cupped his hands into a trumpet shape, and shouted in a long tone, "Pig head nine nine nine nine nine... Come over to eat la la la la la..."
Another responded, also making a trumpet gesture, "Ping Ping Ting Ting Ting Ting Ting... Pighead Nine, here I come la la la la la la..."
Yao Sheng asked Shi Anxia quietly, "Why do these two silly kids use so many reduplications at the end of their pronunciations?"
Shi Anxia laughed, "They are imitating the echo of the valley."
Yao Sheng laughed so hard that her shoulders shrugged and she pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. "I have developed a lot of wrinkles in the past few months. These two kids made me laugh so hard that I couldn't stop."
Young people don't know the taste of sorrow! Shi Anxia was also envious.
The only reason for Zhutoujiu's depression is his marriage to his husband. Now that his marriage is complete, what reason does he have to worry?
Dong Xi lifted the curtain and walked in, saying happily, "Madam, guess who's here?"
Before An Xia could guess, Yi Yi's loud voice called out, "Mother, Mother! You're finally back!"
As a gust of wind blew in, they fell heavily into Shi Anxia's arms one by one.
Shi Anxia was actually tackled by this kid and staggered a few steps, almost falling down.
Dong Xi was quick-witted and quick-handed. He dodged behind Shi Anxia and held her firmly.
Shi Anxia stretched out her hand and pinched her son's cheeks, "You clumsy little brat!"
Yi Yi smiled and said, "When I came out, my wet nurse had just bathed me. Yi Yi doesn't smell bad, please smell it, mother." As he said that, he put his neck to his mother's nose.
Shi Anxia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He looked up and saw his two delicate and somewhat shy daughters with envious faces. His heart softened and he pushed Yi Yi to Zhutoujiu, walked forward, and hugged each of the little girls in his arms.
