Chapter 35
In the first year of Tianbaoxing, in September, the second Nanban war broke out, and the general Zhenbei led his troops to fight again.In the same month of the same year, a catastrophic flood occurred in Zeyuan in Northwest China. Everywhere the flood went was a vast expanse of whiteness, causing over [-] casualties.
Although Master Shuiming had predicted it beforehand, he couldn't prevent it before it happened because he couldn't detect the specific disaster and location.However, the relief materials and other preparations are the only consolation after the natural disaster.
Jian Lirong originally stayed in the imperial city with nothing to do, but when the flood happened, she volunteered to go to Zeyuan for disaster relief.
"Brother Yu, are you really determined to go?" Xuan Bing, the ninety-five supreme lord above the court hall, asked.
"Yes." Jian Lirong answered loudly.
"Then you can ask Si Luo to accompany you."
"Sluo? Why are you looking for him?"
"Have you met him?"
"I've seen it before. It's just his face of a foreigner. I don't know where it came from?"
"He is the prince of Fire Ross, and he has been studying in our country for two years."
Playing and studying... The corner of Jian Lirong's mouth twitched. In Lanxuan, there is only play and no study, right?But he turned out to be a majestic prince, which was really unexpected.Why would a foreign prince work as a prostitute in Yulongtian's red building?
"Prince Siluo and General Yu have a better relationship, so they have been living in the General's Mansion." Xuan Yuan knew that Jian Lirong had questions, but it was inconvenient to answer in the court.
General's Mansion?right?Jian Lirong looked around the group of officials, also, how could it be possible for everyone to know that the prince sent by the friendly country to travel and study has been immersed in the red building all year round?
"Although he is a prince, what does it have to do with me going to Zeyuan for disaster relief?"
"First, Si Luo is very skilled and can protect you along the way; second, let him follow you to learn about post-disaster reconstruction and understand people's sentiments." Xuan Yuan listed the benefits of taking Shang Si Luo one by one, "and the last The important point is that Huolos is located in the rear of the Nanman, if it cannot be attacked for a long time, it will be ambushed forward and backward."
"Wow, no matter how it sounds, this is the rhythm of a steady victory!" Jian Li Rong praised.
"That's right, although I don't think General Yu will be unable to attack for a long time. But it can also be used as an excuse to send Prince Siluo back to the country... cough cough." Xuan Yuan coughed twice after speaking, after all, this The speech is slightly inappropriate.
Regarding the emperor's slip of the tongue, all the ministers watched carefully: I didn't hear anything.
Clever as Jane, Li Rong naturally understands what Xuanyuan means. On the surface, this is an extra manpower, but in essence, he is entrusted with a hidden mission: take this opportunity to send this diner prince, who has been idle for two years, back to his country~
"I understand." Jian Li bowed his head and gave Xuan Yuan a look of "I understand you, don't worry".
After figuring out the reason why Xuan Yuan asked Si Luo to accompany him, Jian Li Rong went straight to Lan Xuan.After explaining the situation to Si Luo, he agreed very simply.
"It just happened that I was bored in the capital and wanted to go out for a walk."
So I prepared overnight, packed some supplies and loaded them into the car, and they were ready to go early the next morning.Jian Lirong waited at the front of the line, looking forward to it, and when he wished to break his puppy's legs, Si Luo came late.Along with Si Luo is Cao Tian.
"Little brother, are you going too?" Jian Lirong asked friendlyly after giving Si Luo a kick.
Cao Tian smiled sweetly: "I'm already 25 years old."
"What?" Jian Lirong was so shocked that he could stuff a goose egg into his mouth, "Tongyan must have a degree! This is simply a fraud!"
"Does it look that small?" Facing Jian Lirong's surprise, Cao Ting was a little frustrated.
"At most 15 years old, you lied about your age, right? It's too unkind to report a full ten years older."
"I'm really 25 years old, I didn't lie." Seeing that Jian Lirong still didn't believe it, Cao Ting raised three fingers to swear, "I, Cao Ting, swear to God, if there is any deception, God..."
Si Luo covered Cao Tian's words behind her with his palm.
"I believe, I believe it's okay, you don't need to swear on such a trivial matter."
"Just believe it." Cao Tian immediately restored his elegant and sweet smile.
Such a pure and transparent personality, the mind is about 15 years old.It is impossible for Cao Tian, who has been helped by Si Luo into the carriage, to know Jian Lirong's impolite thoughts.
Jian Lirong also got into the carriage, patted Si Luo on the shoulder and asked, "How old are you? You won't be younger than me, right?"
"24."
Fortunately, normal.Jian Lirong poked his head out of the carriage and shouted, "Let's go!"
The team full of supplies then headed far west.
In the slightly swaying carriage, Cao Jin tried her best to avoid Si Luo's approach, moving almost to the limit.
Jian Lirong seemed to instantly understand why Si Luo stayed in Lanxuan.So he asked knowingly, "Why don't you ride a horse when you are so tall and big, why do you insist on squeezing in this small carriage with us?"
"I don't know how to ride a horse." Si Luo said it as a matter of course.
Believe in you, there are ghosts!Seeing Si Luo being so dishonest, Jian Lirong wanted to play tricks again: "Brother Xiao Yu, please sit by my side, I want to talk to you."
Cao Yu felt relieved, she broke free from Si Luo's arm that was about to hug his slender waist, and sat beside Jian Lirong as if fleeing.
Jian Lirong immediately took Cao Ting's arm, blowing her nose and staring in anger.He was not afraid of murderous eyes, Jian Lirong deliberately challenged Si Luo's lower limit of patience, touched Cao Yu's little hand and asked, "Brother Xiao Yu has such a thick pen cocoon, he must be very talented and educated."
"My lord..."
"It's called Xiao Rong."
"Xiao, Xiaorong, I'm overwhelmed. I just like to read books and practice calligraphy."
"Brother Xiaoxuan, don't be modest." Jian Lirong hesitated again and again, "I just don't know why brother Xiaoxuan is in a place like Lanxuan?"
"What is 'a place like Lanxuan'? Have you misunderstood something? Although we buy wine at Lanxuan as a joke, we don't sell ourselves." Si Luo interjected.
But Jian Lirong ignored him at all, and continued: "Brother Xiaoyu can take the exam and become an official in the court."
"I don't like intrigues in the officialdom..." Cao Ting answered with forbearance, as if there was something hidden.
Jian Li saw that he didn't want to say more, so she stopped asking.Turning to ask Si Luo: "It's you, why did you stay in Lanxuan? A dignified prince stays for two years."
"Me..." Si Luo looked at Cao Tian, but because of his warning eyes, he didn't answer in the end.
Jian Lirong, who had already understood it before asking, just wanted to tease Si Luo on purpose: "Is it because you fell in love with Brother Xiaoyu and couldn't bear to leave?"
"Ah~" Cao Ting exclaimed, and the pink color spread to her ears.I didn't expect Jian Lirong to see through it so quickly.
"You know you don't want to let go?!" Si Luo stretched out his long arms and pulled Cao Yu away from Jian Lirong's side.
Jian Lirong looked at Si Luo holding Cao Ting tight like a calf, and couldn't help but sighed.You have to watch Xuan Yuan and Camellia show their love in the palace, and you have to watch Si Luo and Cao Yu show their love when you leave the palace. What a bad time~
