Chapter 120 The Great Drought
The princess of the Kingdom of Wei resigned from the marriage to Duke Shen without any reason, and the news that Duke Shen returned in a rage after defending the country was spread wantonly by those who wanted to, and soon spread throughout the entire continent.

People from all over the mainland regard this incident as a joke after dinner, and pass it on by word of mouth.

After a lot of embellishment and the deliberate guidance of someone with a heart, gradually, this rumor became like this——

It is said that Shen Guogong was grateful for the kindness of Weiguo sending troops to help him suppress the rebellion. When Weiguo's first princess and Ji Li just passed the heavy state affairs, he went to Weiguo to discuss the wedding date in person to show his sincerity.

However, the first princess of the Kingdom of Wei has already made a private decision for life, and she looks down on Shen Guogong, so she willfully sent a paper of divorce to Shen Guogong. Moreover, the princess of the Wei State is afraid that her teacher will be unknown, so she is retiring the engagement. The book claimed that it was because Shen Guogong not only recruited prostitutes but also prostituted them during the day when he was discussing the marriage in Hongcheng.

But there is no such thing, Shen Guogong is clean and self-sufficient, he has always been an upright gentleman, and his reputation in various countries is also very good.

This annoyed Shen Guogong, he accepted the divorce letter angrily, and went back to the country angrily.

Not only the rumored Shen Guogong was extremely angry, but all the people who heard about it also felt wronged for Shen Guogong.

They have lowered their status and went to your country to discuss the date of marriage in person. They came here with sincerity, but what they got was a letter of divorce for no reason, plus a malicious frame and insult. How could they not leave angrily? reason?
Not long after the incident happened, the envoy of Wei Guogong went to Shen Guo to apologize with a heavy gift, but Shen Guogong didn't even meet the envoy, and even refused to accept the gift, so he sent him back directly.

So the Shen and Wei countries turned against each other, and there was no more in-law friendship to speak of.

Wei Guogong was very helpless about this, but he didn't delve into it too much. With Ji Tongfang's comfort, he quickly put aside such things, fell back into the gentle village, and enjoyed his drunken life and dreams wantonly.

In this way, under Wei Guogong's depravity and Ji Tongfang's mercenary, Wei's national strength declined step by step, and the people's resentment in the country boiled like a pot of boiling water, and the boiling water might rush out of the pot at any time , scalding the vast land of Weiguo.

What is opposite is that under Shen Guogong's hard work and a series of reforms, Shen's national strength is making great strides forward. The pawns have been greatly supplemented, and the force is getting stronger and stronger.

Under such circumstances, time flies by, and one year later, it will be the 19th year of King Yushou, and Wei Ying, the first princess of the Kingdom of Wei, will be 16 years old this year.

Also in this year, there was a severe drought in Weiguo, and the farmland had no harvest.This is undoubtedly worse for Weiguo's situation.

Another year of autumn, July [-]th.

Victims were everywhere in Weiguo, and there were starved corpses everywhere.

However, in Hongcheng, the capital of the king, singing and dancing are still on the rise. The nobles and nobles are sitting on food that they can't finish in several lifetimes.

Under such circumstances, who in the whole Hongcheng can control the life and death of the people?

Only in the Duke's palace group, a woman in Qingyang Palace frowned, worrying about how to make Weiguo survive this disaster.

I saw the woman sitting on the stone chair under the jujube tree with a worried face, listening to a little maid beside her tell her some rumors in the palace, in order to get a little insight into the outside situation.
