A big gamble: the dandy princess

Chapter 349
"If you can't fight, you can fight!" The young man said bitterly.

Yun Qianyue smiled, "If you are tired, go to sleep, I can't help you fall off the horse."

The boy snorted, he was indeed tired and sleepy, he nestled in her arms and closed his eyes.

Yun Qianyue fixed him in front of the horse, tried to make him sleep more comfortably, let the horse run forward.

Ling Lian and Yi Xue looked at each other, and felt that the young lady seemed to be very kind to this young man, and they were a little confused.

After leaving the barren hills and on the official road, the road was much smoother, and the water on the official road was cleared. After a while, they came to Jingzhou County. The few people continued to walk to the next city, Kangcheng, without resting their feet.

It is about a hundred miles from Jingzhou County to Kangcheng, and the next city of Kangcheng is Luoshui City.

After leaving Jingzhou County, it is obvious that the floods are more serious than the Huai'an City and other places that we walked through. At a glance, there is a cool water beach, and the fertile crops can hardly be seen. Only a dredged official road can be vaguely recognized. , barely able to move forward.The houses on both sides of the road have collapsed, and the ones that did not collapse were also submerged in the water. However, there were no people fleeing elsewhere in ragged clothes on the road, only officers and soldiers were digging ditches to drain water.

Yun Qianyue is eager to see Rong Jing, even if she rides a horse day and night, she doesn't feel tired. The horse's hooves step on the water stains on the official road, making a pattering sound, and the wind brought by the galloping horse seems to be cool and cool water vapor.

There was no obstacle or ambush along the way, and at [-] o'clock in the evening, I finally arrived at Luoshui City.

Luoshui City was the most severely affected, but it seems to have the best governance effect.As soon as Pu entered the city, he could see that the streets were clean and tidy. Except for the brick-walled houses that were washed clean by the rain, there was no trace of sewage.Although the passenger flow is scarce, it also shows that the fastest recovery has been achieved here.

After entering the city, Yun Qianyue reined in the horse and told Ling Lian, "Go and find out where Rong Jing is?"

Ling Lian responded and hurried to go.

Yun Qianyue sat on the horse, looking at Luoshui City, thinking that Rong Jing hadn't rested day and night since he left the capital that day, and he didn't hear or see the slightest cry on the way, so he should lose as much as possible reduced to a minimum.

"Miss, Jing Shizi has already left Luoshui City." Not long after Ling Lian came back, she whispered to Yun Qianyue.

"When did you leave?" Yun Qianyue asked.

"This morning." Ling Lian said.

"Which direction did you go?" Yun Qianyue frowned.She wanted to see him day and night, but she didn't expect that he was no longer in Luoshui City, but it was not surprising after thinking about it. He had already dealt with the flood in Luoshui City, so naturally he would not stay here anymore, and should have gone elsewhere.

"The servant asked a few people, but no one knew, but it must not have returned to the capital." Ling Lian said.

"If we go back to Beijing, we should be able to meet him. The flood control here is perfect and there are other places. It is impossible for him to return to the capital in a short time." Yun Qianyue thought for a while, and then said: "Where else can suffer except Luoshui City?" Is the flood more serious?"

Ling Lian glanced at the young man in Yun Qianyue's arms, saw that he was still asleep, and said in a low voice, "Hegu County."

Yun Qianyue thought about it.

"The disaster in Hegu County is said to be worse than that of Luoshui City, and there are rockslides. It is said that many people have died and trapped many people. And the roads are impassable, and almost all connections with the outside world have been cut off." Ling Lian whispered again. : "Miss, do you want me to contact the people in the Red Pavilion to check?"

"Well, let's check it out!" Yun Qianyue nodded, but she was already somewhat sure that Rongjing had gone to Hegu County.

Ling Lian responded, and immediately rode off.

Yun Qianyue looked down at the young man. He had been sleeping on the horse all day, motionless, and looked really exhausted.If she threw him away or sold him along the way, she probably doesn't know.She looked at him, suddenly reached out and patted his shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you going to Hegu County to save?"

"Brother Zishu." The young man murmured.

"Who is he?" Yun Qianyue asked again.Human consciousness is not controlled by the brain to a certain extent during sleep.

"Prince." The boy murmured again.

"Prince of the East China Sea?" Yun Qianyue narrowed her eyes.

"Hmm!" The boy responded unconsciously.

"Who are you?" Yun Qianyue stared at the boy's face.

"Luo Yu." The boy said in a low voice.

"Who is Luo Yu?" Yun Qianyue asked again.

"Luo Yu is Luo Yu..." the young man murmured unconsciously.

Yun Qianyue stopped asking again, thinking that the main envoy of the Donghai Kingdom's envoy was the prince of the East China Sea Kingdom, so the Donghai Kingdom's envoy team should have arrived in Hegu County, but it was blocked in the Hegu County due to heavy rain County, but it seems that the prince passed the news to the boy that he was trapped in Hegu County, so he came to rescue him urgently.

"Miss, the envoy from the East China Sea is actually the prince! According to legend, the prince of the East China Sea is the most beautiful man in the East China Sea, with the appearance of heaven and man, and the quality of jade." Yi Xue leaned closer to Yun Qianyue and said in a low voice.

Yun Qianyue turned her head to look at Yi Xue and raised her eyebrows, "Didn't the Red Pavilion collect any information about Donghai Kingdom? How did you hear this rumor?"

"It was the servant girl who once heard from the Great Elder." Yi Xue whispered, "Although the Red Pavilion does not record information about the East China Sea, the Seventh Elder of the Red Pavilion seems to be very familiar with the affairs of the East China Sea. Especially the Great Elder, It seems that he admires the prince of the East China Sea very much. The elder has a bad temper and never admires anyone. I only heard that he admired two people, one is Jing Shizi, and the other is the prince of the East China Sea."

"Oh?" Yun Qianyue became interested. The whole Tiansheng seemed to be in a state of shielding from the East China Sea. Although it was separated by a sea, it was no different from the world. The affairs of the East China Sea rarely spread to Tiansheng. , and she never inquired about it, so much so that she never heard of it, so she knew almost nothing about Donghai Kingdom.

"It is said that the situation of this prince is similar to that of Jing Shizi. Jing Shizi suffered a catastrophe when he was seven years old and stayed behind closed doors for ten years, while the prince has had hidden illnesses since he was born and has never stepped out of the prince's mansion. But Even if he does not leave the Prince's Mansion, he is respected and loved by the people of the East China Sea. It is said that many policies that benefit the people of the East China Sea Kingdom are spread from the hands of the Prince. He can know the world safely without leaving the Prince's Mansion. There are also people in the East China Sea According to such a legend, respecting the prince's order is equivalent to respecting the emperor's order. Although the world has never seen this prince, everyone mentions the prince as a god." Yi Xue said again in a low voice.

"Heh, he is also an interesting person!" Yun Qianyue smiled.

Yi Xue probably knew this, so she stopped talking, and said embarrassingly: "This is just hearsay, I don't know the details. In short, this prince is very mysterious, and the world almost doesn't even know his name. He is only respected as Donghai Prince."

Yun Qianyue nodded, "There is no wind in the hole."

Yi Xue glanced at the still sleeping young man and said, "Miss, do you know who he is? This servant thinks it's not easy for him to know the name of the prince of the East China Sea. He should be someone close to him or a member of the royal family."

"He, of course it's not simple." Yun Qianyue glanced at the young man again and smiled slightly.

Seeing that Ling Lian had come back, Yi Xue stopped talking.

Ling Lian rode to the front and whispered to Yun Qianyue: "Miss, Jing Shizi did go to Hegu County."

Yun Qianyue nodded, although she guessed almost everything, she still wanted to make sure.

"Miss, shall we continue our journey?" Ling Lian asked again.

"We won't be on our way today! Let's rest overnight in Zuixiang Building! Otherwise, we should be abolished when we arrive in Hegu County." Seeing that the sky was already dark, Yun Qianyue glanced at Zuixiang Building in front of her and said , "Let's rest in Zuixiang Tower!"

Ling Lian and Yi Xue nodded, they were also exhausted to the limit, but if the lady continued on the road, they would not get down.But when we get to Hegu County, we won't know if we will get down or not.

When she came to Zuixiang Tower, Yun Qianyue patted the young man, but he didn't wake up, so she had to hug him in and handed out the token. The shopkeeper invited Yun Qianyue to the third floor in surprise and joy.

"Tianzi No. [-] room has two compartments, and Tianzi No. [-] room has no compartments. Master, how do the four of you plan to live?" Jian Yunqianyue, the shopkeeper, hugged her own boy, not understanding the relationship between the two.

"I share a room with him, and Ling Lian and Yi Xue share a room with you." Yun Qianyue said.

Ling Lian shook her head, and said softly: "Miss, he lives in Room [-] with us. He lives in the inner room, and the two of us live in the outer room. You are too tired from carrying him all the way, and you need to have a good rest."

"Alright!" Yun Qianyue was a little tired, and handed the boy to Ling Lian.

Ling Lian reached out to take the boy and Yi Xue to room No. [-] in Tianzi.

Yun Qianyue entered Room No. [-], Tianzi.The room was tidy and clean, and she lay down on the bed after eating.

Just about to go to sleep, she heard a scream from Tianzi No. [-] room. She changed her face and rushed out of the door in an instant, and came to Tianzi No. [-] room. The door was open, and she saw Ling Lian and Yi Xue Standing in horror in front of the young man's bed, Ling Lian was covering her hands, Yi Xue was covering her shoulders, the young man on the bed had already woken up, and was looking at the two of them ignorantly.

Yun Qianyue saw a palm-sized poisonous scorpion lying on the ground, her eyes turned cold, and she asked, "What's going on?"

Ling Lian explained with a white face, "After we came in, we put him on the bed and went out to take a bath. We washed him very quickly, and then we had to eat. We were thinking about waking him up to eat some, when we saw a poisonous scorpion crawling When it came to him..."

"Where did you get stung by it?" Yun Qianyue asked.

"I opened it with my hand in desperation, and it bit my hand. Yi Xue was behind me, so I didn't want to hit her on the arm..." Ling Lian said.

"I've never seen such a big poisonous scorpion. In a moment of impatience, I slapped it to death, but was bitten by it instead." Yi Xue said with a pale face, covering her shoulders.
