Chapter 397: The Chivalrous Woman and the Romantic Young Prince (31)

Five days later, Grand Tutor Yang and a group of officers and soldiers set out for Huzhou. After ten days of journey, they finally arrived at Weijiang.

Looking at the broad river, Grand Tutor Yang suddenly felt his heart open. Looking at the officers and soldiers building dams on the river one after another, he felt very comforted.

Although the funding has not yet arrived, the construction has already begun.

Yang Xiuyuan, who was in charge of repairing the dam, saw the soldiers coming and knew that it was the emperor's decree. He hurried forward to greet them and was delighted to see that it was his father.

But when I heard that it was only 50,000 taels, I couldn't help but feel disappointed.

On the other side, Xie Shi'an also crossed the river by boat. When he heard the imperial edict, he raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the prince had guessed it right.

The officials who followed Grand Tutor Yang saw that the officers and soldiers on the river bank were working hard and were worried that another flood would occur, so they returned to the capital after explaining what was written in the imperial edict.

Master Yang followed his son across the river, but he always felt something was wrong. Was this just building a dam?

How did he feel? He looked at General Xie beside him and said nothing. He decided to ask his son after returning home.

......

"Assholes, how could you...how could you do such a thing?"

"Dad, look at what my court has become now? Three years ago, there was a flood in Huzhou, and the people were living in poverty. Some even had to trade their children for food.

But what did the imperial court do? They only sent me 5000 dan of grain. How many victims can 5000 dan of grain save?

There are five villages in Huzhou and 80,000 disaster victims in two counties who have lost all their harvest, but what can the son do?

Later, 50,000 disaster victims fled to Jiangzhou. I heard that they were well resettled in Jiangzhou and at least they could have enough food to eat.

But what did the court do?

The Queen Mother probably spent more than this amount of flowers at a flower viewing banquet.

If this is accomplished, there will be no loss of life and the people will not be displaced, which is a good thing for the people of the five states."

Master Yang fell silent. He sighed heavily, then walked out of the study with his hands behind his back.

On the other side, General Feng Zhiming led 100,000 Feng family soldiers to the Wei River. He saw that the embankment of the Wei River was being built.

Hearing that Weijiang River had flooded recently, submerging a lot of farmland, he saw Xie Shian and bowed, "Thank you, General."

"General Feng."

"General Xie, His Majesty has asked us to rush to the border town immediately. I hope General Xie will hurry up and arrange a boat to take us across the river."

Xie Shian smiled and said, "General Feng, please be patient. I have received the imperial edict from His Majesty. The boat is ready and we will arrange to cross the river later.

You are exhausted from the journey, I will arrange for you to rest for a while."

Feng Zhiming nodded and followed Xie Shian into the big tent, where Baoya, dressed as a maid, was serving.

Xie Shian warmly entertained Feng Zhiming and sat down. After three rounds of drinks, he looked at Feng Zhiming lying on the table, then looked at Baoya.

By the way, Baoya nodded, and Xie Shian left the tent.

The deputy general outside saw General Xie coming out and didn't see his general, so he asked hurriedly, "Sir, where is our general?"

"Oh, he's a little drunk. Let him rest for a while. You can arrange for people to board the ship first. After all, it will take at least three hours for 100,000 people to board the ship."

The deputy general nodded, opened the curtain, and saw a fat girl inside, who was helping their general to the couch.

He said to another deputy general next to him, "You stay here and watch while I arrange for the soldiers to board the ship."

Baoya helped Feng Zhiming into the inner room. When she raised her hand, Xiaoshan came out of the space.

"Xiaoshan, I'll leave it to you this time, please don't embarrass me."

Xiao Shan nodded and said, "Don't worry." Then he transformed into Feng Zhiming's appearance, and even his voice and speech patterns were exactly the same.

Xiaoshan walked out of the tent. The deputy general at the door was startled when he saw the general coming out.

"Let's go, there's no time to lose."

"Yes."

Xie Shian looked at the distant ship and thought about the man still tied up in his tent, and he felt a headache.

A month later, the Dongyi army withdrew from the border town in disgrace, and the Xuanjia army won a great victory.

Qin Mo and Qin Jue also came back, and Qin Yu realized that the two of them had actually lurked in the Dongyi army.

Emperor Wu De looked at the pigeon letter in his hand, his face livid. There had been no news from Feng Zhiming since he crossed the Wei River. It had been a month.

There was no reply to the messages I sent, not even any pigeon messages, and the last one was sent a month ago.

"Your Majesty, it's not good."

Emperor Wude said impatiently, "What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, just now, Lord Huang Yongji sent a letter. When he passed by Weijiang River, he found that the dike of Weijiang River was not simple. It seemed that it was not just a dike, but more like... like..."

Emperor Wude frowned, "Like what?"

"Like a defensive building."

"What?" Emperor Wude stood up suddenly.

At this time, Prime Minister He also said, "Your Majesty, General Feng has been gone for more than a month, but there has been no news in the past month.

And all our letters have fallen into oblivion, which is indeed very strange."

Emperor Wude frowned and slammed his palm heavily on the table. "Minister of Works Hu Peiqing, General Dingyuan Cai Minghao, you two take a thousand soldiers and go to investigate."

The two men stepped out immediately after hearing this, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Wei River,

"We can eat roasted pigeon again today."

"Yes, this is the tenth one."

"I wonder when our prince will be able to find all these spies."

"Don't worry, whoever our prince is, we will have a good life after leaving Yuan Cang Kingdom."

"Yes, I heard that our military pay is going to increase by 30%, and the princess has opened a cloth factory.

They also said that military dependents would be given priority in recruitment, so we will definitely not have trouble finding wives in the future."

Fifteen days later,

Hu Peiqing, the Minister of Works, said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the embankment on the Wei River has been built three feet high, and there is a watchtower every mile along the river.

The key is…”

Emperor Wude's eyes were red, "What's the key? Don't hesitate."

"The key is that we are not allowed to cross the river. All the boats are on the south bank. There are no boats crossing the river on the north bank. I went to ask in disguise and found out.

Ten days ago, the river bank was blocked and no one was allowed to cross the river privately. "

Under the hall, the ministers were whispering and discussing.

"Could it be that Xie Shian rebelled?"

"No way, how can he be so capable!"

"That's right. Not to mention that there are four states in the south, and the Prince of Xiping is in charge, how dare he be so presumptuous?"

Emperor Wude shook his head and said, "It can't be Xie Shian."
