Chapter 52
Sure enough, after the news of the porridge spread, soon, all the refugees in this jurisdiction knew about it.

After all, at this time, the most important thing is to solve the problem of food and clothing, and some of them have been hungry for many days, so naturally they couldn't wait to make a scene.

Under pressure, Zhang Xiao had to give out porridge.

Xiao Shengheng called the dark guard again, "Black Seven."

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"You go to inquire about the scene of the flood and see what's going on there?"

This disaster is not just for the current riots. If the dam is not repaired, it will have a great impact on the people in the future.

"As ordered."

Soon, Hei Qi disappeared from their sight.

"Come on, I'll take you somewhere."

Su Lijin didn't ask why, and followed Xiao Shengheng.

It's just that she didn't expect to go climbing a mountain.

I have to say that the mountain roads here are a bit steep, although Su Lijin has practiced martial arts before, it is still a bit difficult to walk these roads.

And Xiao Shengheng, who was walking in front of her, noticed that Su Lijin was walking a little slowly, so he turned around and asked.

"How is it? Do you need a little rest?"

Before they knew it, the two of them had already climbed to the halfway up the mountain, but it was getting late, and if they slowed down, it would take a lot of time.

Su Lijin waved her hand: "I don't need to rest, I can still persevere."

"Let's go then."

However, during the next climb, Xiao Shengheng deliberately slowed down.

When he reached the top of the mountain, he stretched out his hand, but Su Lijin didn't reach the top of the mountain with his strength.

This mountain is not particularly high, but it took some time for them to climb up.

The two stood on the top of the mountain like this, and Su Lijin said, "Why do we come here?"

Xiao Shengheng did not answer her question, but spoke aloud.

"Sit down first."

As he spoke, he sat directly on the ground.

Su Lijin, who was standing next to him, also sat down. Although she felt a little strange, she still did as he said.

Xiao Shengheng first looked into the distance, then his eyes fell on Su Lijin, and then he slowly opened his mouth.

"I liked a woman once."

As he said that, Xiao Shengheng began to recall the time when the two met for the first time.

He was only ten years old at that time, and there were not many opportunities for him to go out at that time.

That time when he was in a bad mood, he sneaked out of the palace. Looking at such a lively street, he was also infected by the lively emotions, and his mood gradually improved. At this moment, a little girl stepped on his feet.

After being attracted by the little girl's actions, Xiao Shengyun saw her apologetic eyes clearly, and she looked at herself, apologizing sincerely.

And that girl is Su Lijin.

After that, the two became good friends, often played together, and gradually became acquainted.

However, these Su Lijin seemed to have forgotten, and only Xiao Shengheng remembered, which is actually quite good.

Su Lijin, who was sitting by the side, felt somewhat uncomfortable when she heard what Xiao Shengheng said. She didn't expect that Xiao Shengheng still liked someone in his heart.

In fact, at this time, she didn't realize that the person in her heart had already changed.

Under the mask, she curled her lips: "Since you like her, go after her. I really didn't realize that you are still such an infatuated person."

She also encouraged Xiao Shengheng to chase after him.

Hearing these words, Xiao Shengheng lowered his head: "I wanted to chase after him too, but I broke my promise."

Having said that, he paused for a while and continued: "I promised her that we will be a couple forever."

Yes, he promised him at that time, the two of them were too innocent at that time, but now, he broke his promise.

After hearing Xiao Shengheng's words, Su Lijin complained secretly in her heart.

As an emperor, with three thousand beauties in the harem, how could he be a couple for a lifetime, and I don't know which girl is so stupid to believe this sentence, no, more precisely, he should not believe what a man said.

Those who can say these words are all liars, and they cannot be believed at all.

"Since you will break your promise, you shouldn't have made this promise to her in the first place, otherwise, she will be sad."

Su Lijin really didn't understand why Xiao Shengheng said such a thing even though he was born in an emperor's family.

"You're right, I shouldn't have promised her at that time." Xiao Shengheng felt a little bitter in his heart.

"Actually, I'm also curious, who is that woman?" Su Lijin glanced at Xiao Shengheng.

Facing this question, Xiao Shengheng chose to remain silent.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Su Lijin spoke again: "If you don't say it, don't say it, it's better to keep it in your heart."

Then Su Lijin spoke again, changing the subject, "You said there are so many refugees here, if we don't come here this time, their situation will only get worse."

Su Lijin sighed in her heart, to be honest, this was the first time she had seen such a scene.

Xiao Shengheng nodded.

"So we must solve the famine here as soon as possible."

"Sure enough, no matter what time it is, ordinary people always live the hardest life." Su Lijin looked into the distance.

What he said is true. If there is a war, ordinary people’s families will be forced to recruit soldiers, and a good family will be torn apart.

"If I, the emperor, do nothing to reduce the occurrence of this situation, wouldn't this position be for nothing?" Xiao Shengheng said aloud.

Su Lijin nodded in agreement with this sentence.

We should find a way to get the prime minister to step down as soon as possible.Su Lijin knew it would not be that easy.

But if he is allowed to take care of it all the time, the disaster here will only become more and more serious, the people will live in dire straits, and eventually it will become a hell on earth.

Xiao Shengheng nodded. This matter involved a lot. If not, he would have replaced the prime minister long ago.

Just like that, the two of them sat together, chatting with each other.

"How come there are Kongming lanterns there?" Su Lijin pointed to the distance, and saw one lamp rising, then the second, and the third slowly rose, and then the sky full of Kongming lanterns appeared in Su Lijin in sight.

Countless Kongming lanterns slowly flew into the sky, and these scenes looked very beautiful.

Looking at it from this angle, Su Lijin was amazed by the sky filled with Kongming lanterns. Although she would also put up Kongming lanterns during the Lantern Festival, it was the first time she had seen so many.

It seemed to light up the night.

Xiao Shengheng followed his line of sight and looked over, explaining aloud.

"It's Kongming Festival over there."

"Kong Ming Festival, there are still such festivals."

This is the first time Su Lijin has heard of it. If she hadn't climbed to the top of the mountain, she probably wouldn't have seen such a shocking scene.

Xiao Shengheng nodded, Su Lijin looked at the Kongming Lantern directly in front, and Xiao Shengheng who was sitting next to him looked sideways at her.
