My family's handicrafts are all alive!

The key point of this matter is Yakumo Zi, she is not necessarily at Yuyuko's house, according to what she said the last time we met, she has been busy attracting big monsters from all over the place recently.

Even if Xu Cheng went to Youyuzi's house, at most he just told Youyuzi that he wanted to see Yakumozi, and when Youyouzi met Yakumozi, she would pass it on to Yakumozi.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Cheng decided to settle the matter with Prince Shizhu and the right minister first.

After learning about Xu Cheng's thoughts, Fujiwara Meihong was worried that Xu Cheng would never forget Penglai Shanhuiye, and was also happy because she could help Penglai Shanhuiye.

Although they decided to go to the city where Prince Shizhu was located, the speed of Xu Cheng and Fujiwara Meihong was still not fast.

Fighting monsters along the way and advancing, it took a full month to arrive at the city where Prince Shizhu was.

Before approaching that city, Xu Cheng understood why Prince Shizhu and the Right Minister were sent here just by coming to the surrounding villages.

flood.

The sudden flood flooded hundreds of miles of land, and countless people living outside the city were displaced.

The victims fled to the city one after another, and there were countless bones thrown on the side of the road along the way, among which the elderly were the most numerous.

The dead were exposed to the wilderness, and there was not even a completed skeleton left, let alone a corpse.

Before arriving at the city, Xu Cheng and the two followed the ragged victims into the city.

As a young lady of a rich family, Fujiwara Mehong had never seen such a tragic scene. This scene left an indelible memory in her young heart.

In the city, there is a relief point set up by the local government, and the victims can go there to receive meals at meal times every day.

Basically, it is some thin soup, and a little rice in a bowl of soup is good.

Even so, sand can be eaten from time to time in the soup.

It's not that someone withheld food for disaster relief, but that if they didn't do this, the food would simply not be enough, and the local government couldn't do anything about it.

The victims have nothing to say. They almost starved to death before, but now they are good enough to eat, regardless of whether there is sand or not.

And this move can also make those who pretend to be disaster victims to eat and drink to give up their behavior and use the relief food for those who really need him.

Even if Xu Cheng wanted to help, he couldn't do it.

Natural disasters cannot be overcome by one person.

Although there was a flood outside the city, the inside of the city was not affected. At most, the law and order was a bit poor because of the influx of victims.

Therefore, after the right minister and Prince Shizhu came, they implemented a curfew policy.

Because the scope of the disaster is only near the city, the impact on the economy is not large.

When Xu Cheng and his two entered the city, the disaster situation was already under the control of Prince Shizhu and the right minister, and the victims outside the city also had a place to resettle temporarily, and everything was developing in a good direction.

At night, after placing Fujiwara Meihong in an inn in the city, Xu Cheng came to the local government alone.

The office and resting place of Prince Shizhu and the right minister are here.

Xu Cheng came to visit late at night, of course he came to listen to the corner. He turned on the radar, avoided the patrol team, and came to the office where the lights were still on.

Even in the middle of the night, Prince Shizhu and the right minister in the room hadn't started to rest, but were talking about things related to the disaster.

In this regard, the two of them can be called conscientious enough.

Chapter 276 Only to leave a name in the annals of history

Xu Cheng hid on the roof and almost fell asleep listening to the two talking about work.

Finally, the two talked about other things.

Inside the house, Prince Shizhu said: "The disaster will be completely stabilized in two or three months. After I return to Beijing, I will describe your hard work in front of the emperor."

The minister on the right said respectfully: "In that case, I thank Your Highness. Your Highness has also achieved political achievements during this trip, and he must be closer to the position of the Eastern Palace."

Prince Shizhu smiled, then sighed and said, "Even though I am getting closer to the Eastern Palace, that woman still doesn't take me seriously."

"Your Highness is talking about Kaguya Princess?"

Prince Shizhu said unhappily: "Who else can there be besides her?"

The minister on the right also sighed and said: "She is indeed a strange woman, let alone the rumored number one beauty in the world, it is not something ordinary women can do to deal with it calmly and calmly under the joint efforts of our five families that day. "

"Who said no?"

Prince Shi Zhu suddenly asked Minister Xiang You: "Minister, why are you also involved in this matter? With your physical strength, I'm afraid you can't handle the young lady. If you really marry and go home, you can only watch but not eat, that's life A great pity."

The minister on the right said: "The minister participated, naturally not because he was fooled by the beauty."

Prince Shizhu was puzzled: "Oh? Why is that?"

The right minister replied: "Now that I have reached the highest position of an official, I naturally have nothing to pursue in terms of power. If the gifts received by the family every year are exchanged for silver taels, it is enough to make future generations enjoy themselves. Now that I am old, I have lost my love for beauty." interest."

Prince Shizhu is also a smart person, and he suddenly realized: "You don't want power, money, or beauty, so you can only use "fame"."

The minister on the right nodded: "Your Highness is right. When Kaguya Ji and her suitors spread throughout the country, I already had this idea. Regarding what happened today, there will be records in the history books. As long as I Participating in it is tantamount to gaining a chance to be famous in history, as for success or not, it is not so important. Therefore, His Highness does not need to regard this minister as a competitor."

After Prince Shizhu heard it, he smiled and said, "I said, why did you suddenly become interested in Kaguya Ji? It turned out to be because of this idea."

The minister on the right said: "Your Highness, didn't you also suddenly become interested in Kaguya Ji?"

"I was just on a whim. I wanted to see if the rumored Princess Kaguya was the most beautiful woman in the world, but now I was looking for a stone bowl in front of the Buddha. I was thinking whether to give up or not, Kaguya After all, Ji is just the most beautiful woman in the world according to the rumors, but who knows what she really is."

"Will His Highness give up?"

Prince Shi Zhu replied: "I want to give up, but I am unwilling. How about this, after the disaster, I will tell my father to lead a team to visit Tianzhu when I return to court!"

Upon hearing this, the minister on the right hurriedly said: "Your Highness, now is the critical time to determine the position of the Eastern Palace. It is fine for you to leave the capital for a few months or half a year, but if you go to Tianzhu, you may not be able to return in three to five years, Your Highness." Are you really going to give up the Eastern Palace position for a woman?"

When Prince Shizhu heard it, he thought it was right, it was not worth it!

"What does the minister mean?"

The minister on the right said: "Or, Your Highness, wait until the position of the East Palace is confirmed, and then leave for Tianzhu. Or, Your Highness, you spend several months on a trip to Yamato Kingdom. Yamato Kingdom has a profound Buddhist culture, and there may be items that His Highness needs. Even if there is not, His Highness can find a similar one in the temples in Yamato and send it to Kaguya Hime. If Kaguya Hime knows the general idea, naturally she will not care about the authenticity of the stone bowl."

Prince Shizhu asked again: "In your opinion, minister, when will the position of the East Palace be determined?"

"I guess it's been two years."

"Then I can only choose the second one?"

In the past two years, it was impossible for him to leave the capital for too long. If he went to Tianzhu after two years, the day lily would be cold when he came back.

"But if you choose the second one, the time is wrong. Everyone in the world knows that it takes at least three years to travel to and from Tianzhu."

"Then His Highness will send the stone bowl to see Kaguya Princess three years later! By then, His Highness will have entered the East Palace, and the weight will be different."

Prince Shizhu nodded in praise: "This plan is very good."

The right minister continued: "If this is the plan, His Highness will form a team recently and claim to go to Tianzhu to obtain the stone bowl, so the time is right."

Prince Shi Zhu nodded again and again, then asked again: "It takes a lot of money to go all the way to Tianzhu. Wouldn't it be too wasteful to just give it to a fake team like this?"

The right minister replied: "Your Highness, you only need to tell the people in the team to let them hide out for three years, and then form a team to return to Beijing after three years. During this period, you can pay some resettlement fees."

"But if someone brings a resettlement fee and never comes back..."

"That's just enough to announce that this person died on the way to Tianzhu. The journey to Tianzhu is long, and a few people died during the process will add to the authenticity."

Prince Shizhu nodded again and again: "The minister's plan is very good, so let's do it."

The minister on the right cupped his hands and said, "I wish Your Highness the beauty back home."

After that, the two talked for a while, and Prince Shizhu left.

Not long after Prince Shizhu left, the right minister also walked out of the room and walked towards his bedroom.

Xu Cheng did not choose to leave, but followed the departing right minister.

In the conversation between these two people just now, the idea was given by the right minister, so the right minister will only come up with ideas, does he really have no idea about Mount Penglai Huiye?

He said he wanted to be famous in history, if he was the winner among the five, wouldn't he be more famous than the other four?

Xu Cheng followed the right minister back to his room, and found that the right minister had not fallen asleep, but started writing letters.

Not long after, Minister You came to a room next to his room with the written letter and knocked on the door.

Soon, a shrewd and capable young man opened the door, saw the right minister, and said respectfully, "Grandpa, why are you looking for the younger one late at night?"

The minister on the right put the letter into the boy's hand and said: "Xiao Ye, there is a Wang Qing on the trade ship from the Song Dynasty this year. You send this letter to him tomorrow. He is an old friend of mine, so he naturally knows how to do it."

Ono Fangshou took the letter and said, "Good, Grandpa."

The minister on the right took out another bag of gold and said: "This is a reward for Wang Qing, and it must be handed over to Wang Qing. If possible, you can go to Song Dynasty with him, and be sure to bring back what I want! After returning , there must be a big reward!"

Ono Fushou slightly trembling took a bag of gold, he had never seen so much money.

The minister on the right seemed to be worried that Fangshou Xiaoye would take the money and run away, so he gave Fangshou Xiaoye a sum of money and said, "This is your travel expenses when you go to the Song Dynasty. If you come back, you will be rewarded."

Chapter 277 Was it Wang Situ who was scolded to death by Kong Ming in front of the battle?

Ono Fangshou nodded heavily and said, "I will live up to my grandfather's trust!"

Looking at Ono Fangshou's sincere eyes, the right minister heaved a sigh of relief, and chose to believe that this shrewd young man was not an idiot and would not do short-sighted things.

The reason why he came to look for Housekeeper Xiaoye late at night was because he was worried that there would be too many people in the daytime, and if Prince Shizhu sent someone to watch, it would be difficult for him to find out.

This is his own territory, and it is night, he believes that no one can get past so many guards to monitor him.

Xu Cheng, who saw everything in his eyes, thought that the right minister was right.

After the right minister left in peace, Xu Cheng waited for a long time to make sure that both of them were asleep before starting his own actions.

He took out an iron needle, controlled the iron needle to open a gap in the window, and then picked up the letter placed on the table by Housekeeper Ono, and flew out of the window with the letter.

Open the envelope without damaging it, read the contents of the letter, and reattach the envelope with glue.

The reason why Xu Cheng dared to do this was not because he was not afraid of his actions being discovered.

But even if his actions were discovered by Ono Fangshou and he reported it to the right minister, the right minister would not change the original plan.

The fact that he participated in proposing to Kaguya Ji was known to everyone in the world, so it was reasonable for him to ask someone to find Fire Mouse Qiu. Only when there was a gap, did he choose to sneak around.

But he obviously won't give up Kaguya Ji because he doesn't want to have a gap with Prince Shizhu.

Xu Cheng's actions would definitely be regarded by him as the actions of Prince Shizhu.

Prince Shizhu sent people to follow and monitor him in the middle of the night, and this incident had already caused a gap between the two of them, and the pursuit of Kaguya Ji was a trivial matter.

It was Xu Cheng who saw through this point and acted so boldly. Anyway, Prince Shi Zhu was responsible for him.

The right minister will not "explore" Prince Shizhu's true colors, so why doesn't he do it.

Besides, isn't there another possibility? Housekeeper Ono may not be able to discover the traces left by Xu Cheng.

After confirming that the content of the letter was to ask a businessman from the Song Dynasty to buy the fire mouse fur, Xu Cheng left without anyone noticing.

Back at the inn, seeing that Fujiwara Meihong was still sleeping soundly, Xu Cheng lay down on another bed with peace of mind and fell asleep.

On the other hand, Ono Fangshou woke up very early the next day because he was too excited.

As soon as it was dawn, he woke up, and after bidding farewell to Minister You, who got up early to work, he hurried to the pier.

This place is not close to the wharf mentioned by the right minister, even riding a horse will take nearly ten days.

Xu Cheng was woken up by Fujiwara Meihong the next day.

The girl teased Xu Cheng with her hair in front of Xu Cheng's nostrils, and Xu Cheng woke up not long after.

After seeing Xu Cheng wake up, Fujiwara Meihong asked, "What are we doing today?"

Xu Cheng was in a daze for a moment because he had just woken up, and after recovering, he said, "Go to the pier and set off immediately."

Fujiwara Meihong asked suspiciously, "What are you going to do?"

Xu Cheng replied: "Go abroad. Don't you always want you to go abroad to see?"

Fujiwara sister's red eyes flashed: "Which country are you going to!?"

"Da Song."

After breakfast, Xu Cheng and the two left the city.

At this time, Housekeeper Ono, who had left several hours earlier than the two of them, had already traveled hundreds of miles.

However, the two of them were not in a hurry. If they were really in a hurry, they could reach the port in half a day with Xu Cheng's flying sword.

For the sake of safety, Xiaoye Fangshou took the official path, although he would not encounter monsters, but it would take more time.

As before, Xu Cheng and the two hurried on their way while fighting monsters. On the seventh day, in a hurry, they flew directly to the port city.
