Regent, come plant chrysanthemums

The convoy has entered the boundary of Jiazhou Prefecture.The city that the official said should be Jiajing City, which is the furthest from here.

"I'm heading towards Jiajing City, please be safe and don't be impatient." Gu Tianyue's light tone gave people a sense of panic, leaving only a sense of tranquility.

The officer was relieved when he heard this, and remembered something, kowtowed quickly and said, "Thank you for saving my life, if it wasn't for the rescue, there would be no one else in this wilderness, I would have lost my life, Wang There is no way to repay it.”

The people in the carriage couldn't help but suddenly realized that something serious had happened that made this person forget about saving his life.

"It's nothing." Gu Tianyue said very tolerantly, "If you have nothing to repay, why don't you tell me what happened to the previous flood?"

"It's a long story. Those people are all bandits, and they have been harming the people here for a long time." Wang Zhongchang sighed and said, "Those bandits' stockade is called Twelve Links, and they are a group of water bandits. built on the hill."

"How could the water bandit's stockade be built on the mountain?" a maid questioned.

Wang Zhong sighed again, "Jiazhou is a landform with many waters and mountains, the mountains are high and the water is also blue." He said, pointing to a mountain road outside the window of the carriage, "The mountain next to it is called Pingfeng Mountain, because the peak of this mountain is flat. There used to be a river on the top of the mountain falling straight down the cliff, which turned out to be a waterfall. But now you can also see that the waterfall is gone.”

All the people who heard it turned their eyes to the mountain pointed by Wang Zhong, only to see that the mountain was bare and there were few trees.People with better eyesight can see that the rocks on a mountain wall are very smooth, which is the result of being impacted by water for a long time.

"Because those water bandits in Twelve Links took a fancy to such a terrain and forcibly cut off the water flow." Wang Zhong was simply astonished. They are just passing merchants, but in recent years, their power has grown stronger and stronger, to the point where the court had to take measures to suppress them. They suddenly rebuilt the mountain and built a sluice on the mountain to cut off the water flow abruptly. "

This... cut off the water source on the mountain, this... the guard with good hearing blinked his eyes, unable to believe it.

Gu Tianyue shifted his gaze to Su He, and said, "Is it possible?"

Su He frowned and thought about it, "If the water is not rushing, it's probably fine."

"The river on that mountain is not very deep, and the water falling from the waterfall is quite thin compared to other waterfalls." Wang Zhong responded.

Su He suddenly thought, "You were washed over by the water that opened the gate?"

Wang Zhong nodded and said, "That's right, my lord took us to suppress the bandits, but he didn't want those water bandits...the water bandits opened the gate, and a flood of water suddenly rushed down from the mountain and washed us all away."

"Where are you heading to suppress the bandits?" Su He pointed to the mountain road outside the window.

"It's not the waterfall you see from the front. We are on the side of the mountain. I thought that if I didn't stand under the waterfall, I wouldn't be washed away by the water, but I didn't expect the water to rush down from all directions." Of course, after seeing the horrible scene, his face turned pale again.

"The flood rushed down from the side of the mountain, but it affected us who were walking on the side. It really hurt the fish in the pond." Judging from the number of people they rescued, they were indeed affected, and more people should be lying on the mountain. The direction of the side is unconscious.Su He stared at a mountain outside the carriage window, and muttered to himself, "Could it be that the water changed its course when it passed by the foot of the mountain?"

Gu Tianyue saw Su He's earnest and focused appearance, couldn't help but smile a little, and took a sip of tea leisurely beside him, and let Su He ask questions.

Su He asked again, "What's the situation on Pingfeng Mountain?"

"I don't know," Wang Zhong shook his head. "Since the water bandits cut off the water flow, no one has been to the mountain, and I don't know the current situation on the mountain. However, the name of the Twelve Links is also what the water bandits call themselves. Thinking about it, the mountain should have built the village on the lake like ordinary water bandits."

Hearing what Wang Zhong said, Su He became even more curious about the cottage, "Why don't you go and have a look?"

Wang Zhong hurriedly said, "You must not go, it is very dangerous."

Gu Tianyue looked up and saw Su He's indifferent expression, so he decided, "I'll talk about this later, let's go to the city first."

Wang Zhong was taken to Qin Mao's carriage to take care of his injuries.

After a while of silence in the carriage, Gu Tianyue looked at Su He and explained, "The guards are very tired after being hit by the flood. Why don't you go to Jiajing City to understand the situation first."

Su He was extremely unwilling at first, if he left the convoy, he could go wherever he wanted, who could restrain him?But he was also afraid of asking Gu Tianyue to leave, and Gu Tianyue would ask him about his appearance.If he gets along with Gu Tianyue with his current appearance, he is not afraid, but what happened that night is still a demon in Su He's heart.Hearing Gu Tianyue's words at this time, it seemed that he couldn't tell the priority of the Pingfeng Shanshui bandits, so he couldn't help raising his brows, and said, "Of course I know."

The two maidservants covered their mouths with their sleeves together, blocking their own screams that were about to scream.

After Su He's identity was dismantled, he acted and spoke calmly, unlike the boy who had a lot of consideration at that time.The maidservants were worried that the prince would be angry again, so they couldn't help but peeked around, but found that Gu Tianyue didn't hear Su He's bad tone, and was sipping tea leisurely, as if he didn't mind at all.

After the group arrived in Jiajing City, some went to the inn to resettle, and some followed Gu Tianyue to the yamen, and directly sent Wang Zhong to the gate.

Wang Zhong walked to Gu Tianyue's very luxurious carriage, and thanked him, "Thank you so much for sending me back to the city, Wang Zhong is very grateful."

Gu Tianyue's voice came from the carriage, "It's okay, I just want to go in and have a talk."

"Ah?" Wang Zhong outside the car couldn't help being stunned when he heard Gu Tianyue's claim.

And Gu Feimo got off his horse and posted a post in the yamen.

After a while, a long-bearded middle-aged man in a Confucian jacket came out hurriedly. His eyes shifted, and he knelt down directly to the carriage where Gu Tianyue was, "Lin Xu, Counselor of Jiazhou Sima Mansion, pays his respects to the Regent."

Hearing his yell, Wang Zhong at the door and the two guards were all stunned, and it took a long time before they realized it and quickly knelt down.

Gu Tianyue opened the car door and got out of the carriage, only seeing the counselor here, he couldn't help frowning, "Where's the Sima of Jiazhou Mansion?"

"Uh..." Lin Xu replied hesitantly, "Your Excellency has important matters to attend to, so he is not in the yamen right now."

Gu Tianyue nodded, and went straight to the yamen.

It's true that the eyes are higher than the top, just after saving the person and doing kindness, after sending him back to the yamen, he forgets about the person.The two maidservants who got out of the car didn't even look at Wang Zhong, only Su He admired Wang Zhong's blank look and smiled at him.

After a group of people walked into the yamen, the counselor just wanted to turn his head to go in, but felt his sleeves being pulled, turned his head to look back, and stared blankly when he saw Wang Zhong, "Lord Lin, he... that nobleman Really the Regent?"

Knowing that he was rescued by Gu Tianyue, Lin Xu took out the post in his sleeve, "It's written clearly, with a white paper and a red seal, the regent's seal, can it be fake?"

Wang Zhong opened his mouth wide, pointed at the door and said in a daze, "He... saved my life! The benefactor is actually the regent!"

Lin Xu was surprised, "He saved you?"

"Yes." Wang Zhong remembered something again, "By the way, my lord, he was kidnapped by water bandits..."

Lin Xu waved his hand to stop his words, "Someone reported this before, I know, you have to watch your tongue. Your brother also came back, his leg was injured, and now he is being resettled at home, you can go and have a look. "

"Yes." Wang Zhong hurriedly ran away.

Only then did Lin Xu turn around and enter the yamen. In the main hall, the servants had already served tea, and Gu Tianyue sat at the head seat.When Lin Xu saw it, he quickened his pace, walked into the hall and knelt down with a plop.

"What are you doing?" Gu Tianyue asked calmly.

"Please forgive me, my lord." Lin Xu didn't dare to raise his head, "Your official said that your lord is not in the mansion because you have something to do. In fact, Mr. Sima Fangqing in Jiazhou was accidentally kidnapped by the water bandit guards during the process of suppressing the bandits today. , whereabouts are now unknown."

Gu Tianyue and Su He remembered what the officer had concealed when they answered the question, so it turned out to be the case.

But before the two of them could respond, they heard the sound of a child crying suddenly from outside the door.

Gu Tianyue raised his eyebrows, "What's going on?"

Gu Feimo walked quickly to the door, looked down, and replied to the door, "My lord, it's a girl."

As soon as Lin Xu cried, he screamed that it was not good. He had been hiding information about Lord Fang, partly to appease the people in the city, and partly to care about Lord Fang's daughter.The little girl had seen the officers and soldiers come back wet and bruised, but she couldn't see her father, so she kept asking Lin Xu.Lin Xu didn't want to forget Fang Zhen when he reported to Gu Tianyue, and she listened to her without noticing.

Walking out the door, he picked up the girl and coaxed, "Zhenzhen don't cry, your father is fine now, nothing happened."

The little girl kept crying, and when she heard Lin Xu's words, she yelled, "I want Daddy."

Gu Tianyue had a faint headache from the crying, and said, "Take it down."

Lin Xu hurriedly ordered the servants from far away to come over, but the little girl jumped out of Lin Xu's arms all of a sudden, hugged the door frame and did not let go, and cried even louder.

There was a flutter at the door.

"Is there a handkerchief?" Su He suddenly asked the maid beside him.

The two maids didn't pay attention at first, but when they saw Su He looking at them, they wondered, "Why do you need a handkerchief?"

Su He smiled, "Borrow it and use it."

The disguise on Su He's face was ordinary, but when he smiled like this, the smile on his face became very pleasing, and the maids did not hesitate at all, and borrowed the handkerchief.

Su He took the handkerchief, squatted down in front of the crying Zhenzhen, and waved the handkerchief embroidered with pink peach blossoms in front of the little girl, "Is this handkerchief pretty?"

Children are the easiest to attract attention, Zhenzhen glanced at the handkerchief, and cried loudly again.

Su He was not in a hurry, and smiled slightly, "Does Zhenzhen like little white rabbits?"

Zhenzhen stopped again and found that there were no cute little white rabbits around, so she continued to cry...

Su He folded the handkerchiefs slowly, and said softly, "The beautiful handkerchief has turned into a beautiful little white rabbit. Does Zhen Zhen like it?"

Sure enough, Su He turned the handkerchief over and over with his ten fingers nimbly like a juggler. After a while, a small rabbit appeared in Su He's palm.

The little girl gradually attracted attention, and saw that the little white rabbit in Su He's hand had long round ears, a round white head, and a round body, and even the tail behind the buttocks was made short vivid.Zhenzhen opened her eyes wide and looked up at Su He.

Seeing this, Su He showed a sweet smile.

Zhenzhen's eyes widened again, she blinked, and after seeing clearly, she opened her arms, but the target was not the little white rabbit on Su He's palm, but hugged Su He's thigh, and called, "Big brother."

Very well, Suhe's popularity among children is always unfavorable no matter where he goes.
