Great Tang princess

Chapter 296 is not over yet
In the temporary tent, Li Yuechen was already lying on the bed and fell asleep.

Princess Yiyang squatted beside the bed, gently wiped off the mud on her body with a soaked towel, revealing her rosy face.

Seeing that there were still wet tears on the side of her slender and thick eyelashes, Princess Xuancheng stretched out her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes with some distress: "Chen'er didn't drink a drop of water today, and he was exhausted physically, will you be able to resist?" Can't you live?"

"Don't worry, Chen'er has been in good health since she was a child, and there will be no problems." Princess Yiyang said, "Come on, bring the brazier closer to me, and take off this wet clothes for her."

After the two sisters were busy for a while, Princess Xuancheng walked out of the tent.

Prince Li Xian, who had finished distributing the food, ran over: "Sister, how is Yuechen?"

"It's okay, I've settled down and fell asleep."

Hearing her response, Li Xian heaved a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Then I will trouble my sister here, and I will continue to go back and help Shiro."

"Okay." Princess Xuancheng agreed, "If you meet Erlang, let him prepare some food for Chen'er, so as to replenish some energy after waking up."

Li Xian nodded to show his understanding, turned around and left immediately, and continued to help the front line.

When he came to the front line, seeing Geng Yunqiang and Li Lun looking at him worriedly, Li Xian smiled: "No problem!"

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief, Geng Yunqiang also showed a smile on his face, turned around and yelled at the soldiers who also looked worried: "Don't worry, Your Highness is fine!"

A burst of cheers erupted among the soldiers.

"Okay, the matter is not over yet, I will continue to rescue the disaster!" Geng Yunqiang yelled as he walked up to the high place, "Yi Lian will go to rest for an hour, and Er Lian will come and replace..."

The disaster relief work will last for a long time, so at least one company should be guaranteed to rest, as a reserve team, which can be replaced at any time.

Li Xian and Li Lun, who had finished distributing the food, came over and asked, "If there's anyone else I can help, feel free to ask!"

Geng Yunqiang thought for a while: "If you need your Highness's help, it's better for the Second Highness to come over and explain it to the two Highnesses in person."

In any case, the royal family is the royal family after all, and Geng Yunqiang did not dare to give orders to the prince and prince casually after all.

At the same time, when speaking externally, he would not address Li Xian by his first name directly, but by his Second Highness.

……

At this time, Li Xian was ordering the soldiers of the Joint Logistics Battalion upstream to drive wooden stakes and fill sand bags together. These logistics soldiers under him were originally composed of some captives and servants who had been captured before. Soldiers who usually only train combat skills are much stronger.

The thousand sacks full of sand were soon all used up, but still not enough, more were needed.

The officer commanding at the scene told him to go back quickly and let them do more.

Li Xian nodded, leaving some soldiers from the Joint Logistics Battalion to continue to help, while he hurried back on horseback to urge him.

Now, after some simple education, these captives have basically stabilized completely, and there will no longer be any rebellious emotions, so it is no problem to keep them here.

Rather, being a soldier here is much more comfortable than before. Although there are many rules and a lot of training, it's good that you can't stand the food.

Now that they have all trained their muscles and beards, wearing the same camouflage uniforms as other soldiers, they also have an inexplicable sense of pride in their hearts.

After Li Xian went back, he took another [-] bags that he quickly made, and at the same time received [-] sets of buoyancy vests made of wooden boards from the craftsman, and hurriedly loaded them into a car and sent them to the front line.

The sack should be placed upstream. As for the buoyancy vest, it should be given to the soldiers downstream first. The environment they face is the most dangerous.

It is better to leave this kind of matter to the soldiers under his command, but Li Xian plans to go there in person, because now the two elder sisters and younger brothers are downstream, and the younger sister is also there, and he intends to check on their situation.

After reaching the downstream, he handed over the buoyancy vest to the soldier in charge of the contact, and asked about the matter here.

Li Xian also came over at this time: "Brother."

"Sanlang, your clothes are almost soaked! Go and change..."

"It's okay, brother, isn't it the same?" Li Xian smiled.

Li Xian frowned: "How do you compare with me? Now that I am a soldier, this is my duty, you..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now, brother, hurry up and prepare some food, Yuechen just now..." Li Xian explained what happened just now.

"How is Yuechen now?"

Li Xian nodded: "Brother, don't worry, there are two elder sisters who are taking care of her, but they just fell asleep. The most urgent thing is to resettle the victims..."

Hearing that his sister was fine, Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "My joint logistics battalion is preparing materials and will arrive soon. I will set up two temporary resettlement tents here in a while, and ask the victims to separate men and women and go in to dry their clothes separately. … At the same time, temporary tents will be set up for them to live in.”

"Okay!" Li Xian nodded, "I'll send someone back to tell my parents what's going on here, and let the two adults not worry."

……

The Imperial Palace, inside the Hall of Renshou.

Lying on the rocking chair, Li Zhi rolled the health ball in his hand and couldn't help smiling: "It seems that Saburo and the others can indeed learn a lot from this incident."

"This new army is really efficient." Wu Zetian nodded, but couldn't stop muttering, "But Chen'er is too reckless after all, and wants to save people even if he has no energy, just in case something happens to him..."

"Chen'er has attached great importance to emotions since he was a child. After all, he is a soldier brought out by himself, so it is naturally different." Li Zhi can understand his daughter's thoughts, after all, most people can't completely abandon emotions to make judgments, "Besides, this is not Bad thing, after this incident, Chen'er's reputation among the people will reach an incredible height."

On the contrary, this incident made Li Zhi feel relieved. With such a high reputation among the people, he is almost a living god.

In this way, if the future emperor wants to move her, he will have to weigh it carefully.

Although Li Zhi doesn't think his daughter's future will reach that point.

Wu Zetian nodded and turned to look out the window: "I'm afraid this news will spread throughout the Eastern Capital before tomorrow, and I don't know how they will react."

"It's unlikely to expect them to come to the scene to rescue the disaster in person, but after the rain stops, there will probably be some porridge handouts..." Li Zhi had a youthful smile on his face.

It's like learning a big secret that no one else knows.

Wu Zetian suddenly laughed too: "If they find that none of the disaster victims are willing to go there, I don't know what kind of expression they will have on their faces..."

There was a continuous burst of laughter in Renshou Hall.

……

On the other side, inside the newspaper office, Shangguan Wan'er was sitting on a chair in a daze, watching the heavy rain outside the window.

The newspaper office that was in charge of intelligence naturally also knew what happened on the front line. Shangguan Wan'er was relieved to hear that Li Yuechen was fine, but she always looked like this in a daze.

Gao Yanfu next to him asked tentatively: "Shangyi, can't I wait to see the front line?"

Shangguan Wan'er shook her head when she heard this: "I'm a court lady, how can I leave the palace privately? Besides, if I go there, I will only cause trouble for His Highness, so I'd better wait here for the news."

Gao Yanfu nodded: "Don't worry about Shang Yi, His Highness has always been omnipotent, so nothing will happen."

Hearing his comfort, Shangguan Wan'er smiled, but then shook her head lightly: "You don't understand, Your Highness... she... is sometimes very fragile!"

She grew up with Li Yuechen since she was a child, and has a much deeper understanding of her than outsiders.

In the eyes of others, Li Yuechen is omnipotent, there seems to be nothing she cannot solve.

But she knew very well that this His Highness was just very smart, but she was still a mortal, and she also had a vulnerable side that all mortals had.

At the same time, she was thinking in her heart that when His Highness came back this time, he should follow her example and give her a hug to comfort her.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help laughing.

……

As the night passed, the rain seemed to lighten a lot.

After a day and a night of hard work upstream, the embankment was almost blocked, and the downstream water flow was also temporarily controlled.

When Li Yuechen slightly opened his eyes, he felt that he was in a warm embrace.

He opened his eyes and took a closer look. It was the two sisters holding her in their arms, one on the left and the other on the right. They were lying on both sides of her at this time, and they hadn't woken up yet.

She moved slightly, but she didn't feel any discomfort on her body. Li Yuechen gently reached out and grabbed her sister's wrist to move it away a little.

However, this movement made Princess Yiyang who was lying beside the bed open her eyes.

Li Yuechen paused: "Did I wake up sister?"

"It's okay, how does Chen'er feel?"

Princess Xuancheng next to her also woke up, and hurriedly propped up her upper body and asked, "Is there anything uncomfortable?"

"It's okay, I'm just a little hungry..." Li Yuechen replied softly.

"Let's go, Erlang was ready yesterday, just ask them to heat it up later." Princess Xuancheng got up and was going to help her get dressed.

Li Yuechen shook his head: "Sister, I can do it myself."

Putting on the dried clothes, Li Yuechen stood up and moved around.

Princess Yiyang had already asked the soldiers outside to fetch water. After washing her face, she instantly felt much more refreshed.

When I went outside with an umbrella, I saw two large tents that had been temporarily erected. The victims, male and female, warmed up and dried their clothes separately inside.

At the same time, the foundation has been laid on a piece of flat ground behind which was not flooded, and a group of soldiers from the Joint Service Battalion are building simple houses in an orderly manner, which are temporary residences for the victims of the disaster.

It's just a simple Datong shop, don't say whether it is a family, just separate men and women, some live and some eat.

In this situation, people are thankful to be alive.

Seeing the princess coming out, Geng Yunqiang, who had been up all night, immediately ran over: "Your Highness, are you feeling better?"

"Hmm..." Li Yuechen nodded, although his expression was still a little sad, but at least his mood had stabilized.

She looked around and saw that the soldiers were still busy, but at this time the soldiers in the water had already put on buoyancy vests and were swimming in the water to continue saving people.

However, a whole day had passed, and very few of the people brought back were still alive, and there were even quite a few soaked and whitish corpses.

Seeing that the princess' mood had stabilized, Geng Yunqiang was relieved.

He rubbed his reddened eyes: "Your Highness didn't drink a drop of water yesterday, so go eat to replenish your strength..."

"You don't have to worry about me in this regard," Li Yuechen shook his head, "It's you who stayed up all night, right? Eat something hot and go rest later, I'm here..."

"Yes!"

Geng Yunqiang didn't refuse either, it's better to say that it's a good thing to give up the command post to the princess, so that at least she doesn't have to go into the water by herself.

Although it is true that the princess is very powerful, the boss is the boss after all, and he cannot be at the forefront all the time.

The situation has basically stabilized today, the princess should stay at the command post.

……

The carriage next to him suddenly opened the curtain, Prince Li Xian came down rubbing his eyes, yawned and stretched his waist: "Yuechen, you're awake, how do you feel?"

While talking, he walked over quickly, put his hands on his sister's shoulders and looked left and right, "I soaked in the water for a few hours yesterday, do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Brother, don't worry, I'm fine." Li Yuechen squeezed out a smile, "Brother, why didn't you go back to the palace to rest last night?"

"Where can I take care of..." The fourth brother Li Lun's voice suddenly came from beside him.

Li Yuechen turned his head, and saw the fourth brother jumped out of the carriage with some disheveled clothes. When he landed, his body was unstable and he almost sprained his feet.

Then he said as he walked this way: "It is very troublesome to distribute supplies and records for thousands of victims. It will be a while after the work is over. Think about it and deal with it overnight in the carriage..."

"The two brothers have worked hard..."

"It's hard work, but don't say it, I'm tired, but I really feel a lot of difference..." Li Xian replied with some emotion, "I used to read the disaster situation, it was all written in the memorial, but now I see it with my own eyes." Only then can we know how dire the actual situation is...even my own sister almost got involved..."

Li Yuechen shook his head: "I'm doing well... don't worry, bro, I won't be like this in the future."

"It's best not!" Li Xian nodded, and then joked, "Otherwise, if something happens to you, you will cause trouble for my brother in the future, no one will help me to coax my mother..."

As soon as these words came out, even Li Yuechen, who was still a little sad, couldn't help but chuckled slightly.

She knew that her brother was also comforting her and easing her emotions.

Princess Yiyang took the umbrella from Li Yuechen's hand, "Okay, the soldiers of the Joint Logistics Battalion have already heated up the food, go and eat, I'm afraid Chen'er is still busy today!"

"No!" Li Lun said seriously, "I was soaked in the water for several hours yesterday, if..."

"Brother, don't worry, I won't go into the water today, but there must be no one on the command post, and I have to preside over the overall situation." Li Yuechen explained.

Li Lun was a little puzzled: "Is there anything else that needs to be directed? There are no living people underwater..."

"The corpses must also be picked up, otherwise the water quality will be polluted, and a plague may be caused..." Li Yuechen replied with a serious face.
