Rebirth of Noble Menjiao

Mingyi was not so optimistic. The Wangjiang River basin was vast, but it was by no means limited to Wangjing City.What's more, there are tributaries and south of Wangjing?Moreover, it just started raining in Wangjing City, but the same is not necessarily true for its upstream tributaries.She vaguely remembered that when the disaster came, it had only been raining for a few days.

The rain had no intention of stopping at all, and it didn't show any sign of letting up. After a few more days, Fan Shuang couldn't sit still any longer, so he put on his raincoat and hurried out the door. This time when he came back, his face looked even worse. It's dignified.

"Princess, I heard that there were several breaches in the western suburbs, and the downstream was also in trouble... Our Wangjing City, earlier, His Royal Highness led the people from the Ministry of Works to urgently strengthen the dike, and they have been guarding the dike in the past few days. I'm holding on, but I don't know how long it will rain. If it rains again..." Fan Shuang didn't say the words that followed, but those who heard them felt frightened.

Wei Yu had suffered the disaster, and his face instantly turned pale.Wangjing City, at the feet of the Emperor, has not flooded the Wangjiang River for many years. Although there is no danger for the moment, the upstream and downstream are affected by the disaster, and they are so close. How can it not be frightening?

The room fell silent for a moment, accentuated by the sound of rain.

Mingyi turned her head and looked at the foggy rain outside the window, sighing faintly, "I'm afraid it's going to rain for several more days. I hope..." I can survive it!

In my memory, this heavy rain is probably going to last for more than half a month.But this time, due to the actions of the prince, he has been guarding for a few more days. The official warehouse must have been prepared. The food in the official warehouse has been saved. At least Wangjing City will not suffer heavy losses, right?

Although she was thinking this, Mingyi was still worried. Even King Jiyang, who didn't worry about anything at home, couldn't sit still. He sent people out to find out the news every day.Mrs. Gao even asked people to count the belongings at home. The valuables were wrapped in oil paper and locked in boxes.

The atmosphere in the huge palace became silent and strange, especially when I heard that many places had suffered disasters, I couldn't help but feel heavy in my heart.Fortunately, no bad news came from the other side of the dam. Day after day, the rain finally slowed down.

Mingyi mentally estimated the time and breathed a sigh of relief.

Until the pouring rain turned into a drizzle, she finally let go of her heart and hoped that Beijing would be safe. This was the only thing she could do at the moment. In the future, she could put all the grain stored in the grain depot into surrounding villages and towns. One more person can be saved, right?

She had never seen the scenes in that nightmare and what she heard from Wei Yu's mouth, but her heart palpitated just thinking about it. Since God had given her a chance to come back again, she would always be in danger for this world. The great Zhou must devote all his energy, no matter how small it is.

Mingyi was concerned about the situation outside. When the rain was about to stop, she couldn't sit still anymore. After cleaning up with Fanshuang, she prepared to leave the house to see the situation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the door of her courtyard, she saw Uncle Hai, who was waiting closely beside King Jiyang, coming quickly, "Princess, there are distinguished guests coming. Your Majesty, please go to the flower hall to meet the guests!"

Distinguished guest?Mingyi raised her eyebrows lightly, which was something she hadn't done in the months since she became Fu Mingyi.

When I got to the flower hall, I had a look, oh!What an expensive guest! "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!" She suppressed all the doubts in her heart and bowed her knees.

"Princess, hurry up and forgive me!" Fu Ruixuan's description was not good. Maybe because he was busy with disaster relief these days, he had lost weight. There were some green stubbles on his chin, which made him look a bit unkempt.

Mingyi stood up straight and saw the obvious worry on his face. Her thoughts were racing in her heart, and she was already thinking about Fu Ruixuan's purpose of coming to Jiyang Prince's Mansion.

"Your Highness, please stop standing. Do you want to sit down and talk about something?" King Jiyang came up and said with a smile. "No need, uncle! It's very abrupt for me to come here today. I really want to ask the princess for help with something." Fu Ruixuan couldn't wait any longer, so he gritted his teeth and went straight in.

"Asking Jiaojiao for help?" King Jiyang looked back at his daughter in shock.

Mingyi's mind was surging, but her face was still calm, "Your Highness, please speak!" She knew Fu Ruixuan. He usually didn't have any pretensions to being a prince. In the first two times they met, he always called himself "I", but today, But he called himself "lonely". I don't know whether it was because the uncle, King Jiyang, was here, or because he came today as the crown prince of a country.

Fu Ruixuan struggled for a moment, and finally lowered his voice and said, "This matter is of great importance. Please keep it secret..."

Being so mysterious made the atmosphere even more solemn.

Fu Ruixuan pondered for a moment, and then said softly, "To be honest, after returning from Qianzhong Temple that day, I went to the official warehouse in the south of the city, thinking that I must protect the official food in the south warehouse no matter what, in order to prevent In case of emergency, he proposed to temporarily move the official grain to other warehouses for storage, but to his surprise, the warehouse official refused in every possible way. Gu Shen felt that something was wrong and had people break in. Only then did he realize that there was not enough food left in the south warehouse. One or two, the rest are all grain husks and chaff mixed with sand, gravel, and fish eyes. Even the other warehouses in the city are in a similar situation. Today, the dams are still in good condition, but there is no food left to accommodate the people who suffered the disaster. , these giant rats are really abominable!”

Fu Ruixuan said with indignation, and King Jiyang and Mingyi's father and daughter looked at each other in shock.

Especially Mingyi, her face was even more solemn. She only heard about many things in that nightmare.It is said that the dike in the south of Wangjing city burst, and the river flowed back, submerging the fertile fields and residential buildings, and destroying most of the official warehouses in the south of the city. As a result, there was insufficient food during the disaster relief. Even the victims around Wangjing did not have enough to eat, but there was not much else. heard about it.Didn't you expect that it was because of this?
She was really ignorant at that time. It was just that Nanchang was hit by a disaster. In addition to Nanchang, there were several other official warehouses in Wangjing City. How could it be possible that food for the victims in the surrounding areas could not be provided?

"My father is furious and has ordered a strict investigation into the matter. The officials involved in the warehouse management have been jailed for a lot of money and are being interrogated. But right now, the most important thing is to resettle the people affected by the disaster around Wangjing..."

"If there is anything I can do to help, please speak up, Your Highness." After a while, Mingyi had roughly figured out why Fu Ruixuan came, and a pair of almond-shaped eyes as clear as a stream quietly raised her head to look at him.

Fu Ruixuan was a little uncomfortable. He coughed twice before saying, "Did I hear from Ah Qian that the princess is learning to do business, and the first thing she took over was the grain store?"

Mingyi said nothing, and there was no change on her face. She still looked back at him calmly.

Fu Ruixuan gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, Gu has no choice but to check secretly. Since he took over the grain store, the princess has actually bought a lot of grain. Now, it is all stored in the warehouse. Gu is shameless and wants to I want to ask the princess to borrow food to meet our urgent needs."

"Princess, don't worry, this food will not be borrowed in vain. When the time comes, the court will definitely repay it in full. Gu Yuan is my guarantee!" As he said this, Fu Ruixuan even showed the private seal hanging on his waist.

"Your Highness, you don't have to be like this!" King Jiyang said hurriedly, and then turned to look at Mingyi. He was speechless, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.This is a big deal, Jiaojiao, don't be confused and get into trouble.

"Your Highness, I am willing to help with this urgent need, but... I have another way. I wonder, Your Highness, would you like to listen to me?" Mingyi did not hold on to the small money as King Jiyang thought, or did something like this. Something else, but said this.
