Chapter 53 The Little Puppet Emperor 10 The Regent and below commit crimes!punish...
Although it was summer, the wind in the forest was still very cool at night. Xie Yi and his men rode on the road without even a place to shelter from the wind and rain.Shen Xingzhuo wrapped Xie Yi's cloak, leaned against the tree trunk and fell asleep bit by bit.
Xie Yi was half asleep, habitually sleeping very lightly, in order to prevent any changes at night.
Sleepiness came slowly, a hairy head suddenly fell from his shoulder, and his light breath fell on Xie Yi's neck.
He froze, opened his eyes and looked at Meng Quan who was resting on his shoulder.After driving for a whole day, the little emperor's eyes were tightly closed, and a faint blue shadow appeared in front of his eyes, and he fell into a deep sleep.
Xie Yi held his breath, carefully placed Meng Quan's head on his lap, and then pulled the cloak to cover it.
The sleeping little emperor seemed to feel much more comfortable this way. With his hands on his knees, he rubbed his fair face lightly, found a comfortable position and fell asleep.
Xie Yi's fingers lightly landed on Meng Quan's cheeks, doing something he had never done before. He pinched Meng Quan's cheeks with his fingers and squeezed them gently.It feels soft to the touch, and the skin is delicate and warm.
The little emperor's eyelashes fluttered slightly, his eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and he muttered unhappily.Xie Yi quickly let go of his hand.
His fingertips retracted as if they had been scalded.
His eyes moved away uncomfortably, and his usually cold and stern gaze scanned the surroundings, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The next day, early in the morning, Shen Xingzhuo was woken up by Xie Yi.
He rubbed his eyes, helped Xie Yi's hand to stand up, and continued on his way.It's just that this time he and Xie Yi rode together, and sat obediently behind Xie Yi.
He grabbed Xie Yi's belt with one hand, rubbed his cheek with the other, and asked suspiciously, "Why does my face hurt a little?"
Xie Yi's hand holding the rein paused, and his eyes were a little guilty: "Really?"
Shen Xingzhuo nodded, and suddenly looked at the back of Xie Yi's head suspiciously: "Will the regent slap me in the face while I'm asleep?"
"Of course not." Xie Yi looked straight ahead, "In the emperor's heart, is this the way a humble minister behaves?"
Shen Xingzhuo glanced at his profile, and snorted softly: "Who knows."
Yesterday, when I caught Shen Xingzhuo's leader on the second road, I saw that little soldier sitting behind the prince, and his eyes almost popped out, no, no, I heard that this is their emperor, and the emperor actually went to the southwest to control the water , Dining and sleeping with them, I can't help but feel a little moved.
He had never seen the emperor this close before, and was about to take a closer look, but was blocked by someone.
At a glance, the leader shrank his neck: "Han...Vice General Han."
Han Chen's mouth twitched slightly: "Don't watch what you shouldn't."
"Yes, my subordinates know."
Han Chen glanced at the regent and the little emperor in front of him, and shook his head: "Tsk, my lord is really... If you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster."
The year before last, their prince rescued a princess of a foreign race at the border. The princess was as beautiful as a flower, her leg was injured and she couldn't walk, she begged the prince's horse to take her home, but she was coldly rejected, and she was thrown to him directly, making her very angry The princess stared at him a lot on the way back.
Now such a precious little emperor, there must be something tricky!
After seven days of fast riding on the road, we finally arrived in the southwest.As soon as he entered Jiangzhou Mansion, he saw refugees all over the place, leading their sons and daughters, all in ragged clothes, with yellow complexions and dull eyes.
Shen Xingzhuo suddenly felt uncomfortable, no matter whether they are in the world or not, these displaced people are real.
"The papers submitted by the prefect of Jiangzhou probably don't describe enough of this tenth."
Xie Yi's face was also ugly, and his voice was cold: "In order to protect my black hat, I really dare to hide everything!"
The prefect of Jiangzhou, surnamed Shi Mingyan, was 45 years old and had been the prefect of Jiangzhou for five years.Shen Xingzhuo looked at this person in his mind and raised his eyebrows. It seems that Shi Yan's daughter married a distant nephew of the Yan family two years ago.
This relationship is hidden deep, and generally no one pays special attention to the distant relatives of the ministers, but this Shi Yan has a lot of hands and feet in the southwest, and it can be said to be a very concealed chess piece placed by the Yan family in the southwest.When Xie Yi was in danger, he had nothing to do with Shi Yan.
Shen Xingzhuo's eyes turned cold, he still counted on Xie Yi to help him with political affairs, so that he could be at ease.
Those who want to harm him will just have trouble with him!
A group of people went directly to Shi Yan's mansion, and the mighty people drove past the streets of Jiangzhou City, attracting the attention of the people.
When Shi Yan heard the wind, he had already been waiting at the gate of the mansion. When he looked up, he saw Xie Yi who was dressed in a condensed manner. He immediately went up to meet him, with a sad expression on his face: "The prince is finally here! The people of Jiangzhou are finally saved!"
Xie Yi glanced coldly, Shi Yan didn't even dare to vent his breath: "Go into the mansion and talk about it in detail."
"Yes." Shi Yan responded quickly, and when he looked up, he saw Meng Quan, who was next to him with a handsome face and bright eyes, and couldn't help asking, "Who is this?"
Shen Xingzhuo was angry in his heart, this person recognized Xie Yi, but he didn't recognize the emperor?
This emperor really failed.
He gently squeezed Xie Yi's fingers.
Xie Yi said softly, "Cousin at home, let's practice with you."
cousin?
Shen Xingzhuo quietly glared at Xie Yi, wouldn't she make up an inconspicuous official position?
"Come in quickly." Shi Yan invited people in without delay.
Shi Yan's mansion is not magnificent, but very clean and simple, without a single expensive decoration.Shen Xingzhuo's eyes swept over him, even an official robe was washed out, and the boots on his feet were severely worn, with only a thin piece of heel left.
He looked anxious at this time, and talked about the recent flood situation: "Several embankments have been damaged. The officials led people to build embankments day and night, which saved Jiangzhou City from being breached. It's just that it's going to rain, I'm afraid It won't last long."
Xie Yi looked at the map of the river, and asked in an unchanging voice: "The imperial court allocates a lot of silver taels to Jiangzhou every summer. This year, there are only a few heavy rains. How come it collapsed like a mountain?"
His voice was calm and cold, and the air in the study instantly condensed.
"What does the regent mean! Do you suspect that the officials have embezzled those silver taels!"
Shi Yan's face suddenly became dark, his face turned red from anger, and he gasped for breath.
Xie Yi looked straight at him: "Master Shi, don't be so afraid, this king is asking about business."
Shen Xingzhuo gently tugged on Xie Yi's sleeve, and smiled embarrassingly: "Master Shi, don't be angry, my brother is just worried about the people, so I asked this question."
When Xie Yi heard the two words in the middle, his gaze at Meng Quan suddenly darkened.
Only then did Shi Yan calm down, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "There are many rivers in the southwest, and it is rainy in summer. It is inevitable that the rivers will surge and invade both banks. The lower officials order people to build dams every year. The stone, wood, manpower and material resources all need Silver, if you don’t believe me, just go and check it. Besides, look at Xiaguan’s mansion, even the house where Xiaguan lives is leaking, how could Xiaguan be greedy for people’s life-saving money.”
Xie Yi glanced at the little emperor, withdrew his frightening gaze, and said in a steady voice, "I don't mean to blame Mr. Shi. Mr. Shi is famous, and even I have heard about it."
Shi Yan bent over and smiled.
Xie Yi rolled up the river route map and the blueprints of dam construction on the table: "These days, the king and the subordinates he brought will stay at the mansion, so please trouble Mrs. Shi."
Shi Yan saw that Xie Yi's face was as usual, and nodded: "Of course, the official has already prepared, and I will take you there. It's just that the rooms in the mansion are limited, and it may be wronged for two people to share one room."
After arriving in the room, Shen Xingzhuo watched Shi Yan walk out of the yard, then turned to look at Xie Yi, raised his eyebrows lightly: "Cousin?"
Xie Yi coughed lightly: "It was the emperor who forbade the humble minister to reveal his identity."
He didn't expect that Meng Quan could really call out that "brother".
Shen Xingzhuo bulged her cheeks, forget it, my cousin is my cousin.
While talking, it started to rain outside, and it was getting heavier and heavier.
And Shen Xingzhuo suddenly felt a little cold on the top of his head, and water was flowing down his cheeks.He moved quickly, and then looked towards the place where he was standing just now, and saw rainwater seeping down from a hole in the roof.
He said faintly: "This magistrate's mansion is really shabby."
He looked at the hole, and suddenly his eyes went dark, and a cloth kerchief was covered over his head.
"Your Majesty, it's better to wipe it off first."
Xie Yi's deep and cold voice rang in his ears, but Shen Xingzhuo felt that Xie Yi was rubbing his hair vigorously with a cloth towel.
"Don't let go!" Shen Xingzhuo hurriedly struggled, and when his head came out, he met Xie Yi's dark eyes.
However, he saw the corners of Xie Yi's mouth twitch, and he couldn't hold back a laugh.
Shen Xingzhuo's face suddenly darkened: "The regent is guilty of the crime! You will be fined to sleep on the roof at night."
A smile rolled down Xie Yi's throat: "Let my cousin sleep on the roof, I really don't know how to be polite, wouldn't it be a joke to let others see it?"
Shen Xingzhuo choked, and stared at him with those bright black peach blossom eyes.
"However, since it is the emperor's order, I dare not disobey."
Xie Yi suppressed the smile on his face, and went straight out the door.
When Shen Xingzhuo chased to the door, Xie Yi had already disappeared.He stomped his feet, and it was still raining!
"Hello!" Shen Xingzhuo shouted, "It's not even night yet!"
"Did you hear it?"
"Isn't it okay not to let you sleep on the roof?"
"Cousin! If you don't come down again, my brother is going to make trouble!!!" Shen Xingzhuo ran out directly, ready to see which roof Xie Yi picked.
With a flash before Shen Xingzhuo's eyes, Xie Yi fell from the roof, grabbed his wrist and stuffed him back into the house: "Nonsense! Run out when it's raining."
Shen Xingzhuo looked at him suspiciously: "What did you do?"
Xie Yi's eyes flashed coldly: "The roof is man-made."
Shen Xingzhuo was taken aback for a moment, and his expression suddenly became complicated. This Shi Yan, can actually do this?
But he thought Xie Yi was tricked by Shi Yan.
"Stay in the mansion and don't run around. I'll go to the river to check." Xie Yi found out a coir raincoat and put it on his body.
"Wait, I'll go too!" Shen Xingzhuo then took off the coir raincoat, and glanced at Xie Yi who was about to stop him, "Since I've come to the southwest, I can't hide in the mansion and throw all the burden on the regent."
Xie Yi pursed his lips, looked at Meng Quan who was wearing a wide coir raincoat and had firm eyes, and nodded: "The river bank is chaotic, follow me closely."
Shen Xingzhuo nodded quickly.
When they got to the river bank, the group realized that the situation was far more urgent than they had imagined. The roaring turbid river directly washed away the houses on both sides of the river, and the water waves kept scouring the river bank, which was almost level with the dam.
Shen Xingzhuo's heart sank suddenly, and the dam would collapse soon.
Xie Yi was half asleep, habitually sleeping very lightly, in order to prevent any changes at night.
Sleepiness came slowly, a hairy head suddenly fell from his shoulder, and his light breath fell on Xie Yi's neck.
He froze, opened his eyes and looked at Meng Quan who was resting on his shoulder.After driving for a whole day, the little emperor's eyes were tightly closed, and a faint blue shadow appeared in front of his eyes, and he fell into a deep sleep.
