After being forced to marry the prince

Although he had heard the rumors of this prince getting married, and he had disdain and contempt before, he never expected that the Ninth Prince, who was quite unbearable in the words of others, turned out to be so noble, gentle, delicate, as if he could not eat. Like the immortals of fireworks in the world.

Liu Wangshan lowered his eyes calmly, thinking in his heart overwhelmed, such a character, no wonder even a hero such as Gu Baiji has sunk into it.

He thought he was covering up his emotions well, but Gu Baiji has always been sensitive when it comes to matters related to Chuwu, he caught the amazement and greed in Liu Wangshan's eyes, his face remained unchanged, and the bottom of his eyes turned cold.

Liu Wangshan took another step back, with a more respectful attitude, to welcome the two princes in.

The journey was tiring, no matter how urgent it was, he had to settle down first. Liu Wangshan was hospitable and thoughtful, and indeed he had already arranged accommodation for several people in advance.

Although there are no overly luxurious decorations, the sheets and bedding are all brand new.

He thoughtfully arranged two courtyards at first, thinking that since the Ninth Prince and the General are a couple, they should naturally live together, and the Eleventh Prince should live in a separate courtyard because of his noble status.

But at this moment, Liu Wangshan regretted it a bit, he thought about it and said:

"Xiaguan thought, the two princes are in a good relationship, and it would be good to have someone to take care of them if they live together, so they arranged them in the Four Seasons Courtyard with a more beautiful scenery. General, please rest assured that the servants who serve are all selected by the subordinates. Thoughtful, I will never neglect the two princes."

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome." Gu Baiji waved his hand and said directly, "Just live in the same yard."

"This..." Liu Wangshan hesitated, "General, there are four of you, and you only cleaned up three rooms in each courtyard."

"Isn't this just right?" Gu Baiji's voice was slightly cold, "Liu Taishou has forgotten that Quo and the prince are partners, so there is no reason to separate?"

Liu Wangshan paused in his heart, nodded quickly and said: "The general is right, but the subordinate officials didn't think carefully."

He no longer smiled at this time, and finally showed a bit of a fierce look on his face.

Gu Baiji glanced at Chu Wu who was talking to Chu Yu not far away with his head bowed, with a few smiles in his eyes, and when he looked back at Liu Wangshan, all those smiles disappeared:

"Prefect Liu is bothering you. There is no need for a family boy to serve you in this yard, so let's evacuate people."

"This..." Liu Wangshan's gaze towards Chu Wu was well hidden, with just the right amount of panic on his face, "The general is worried that they won't serve you well? I'll go get another batch right now."

"No need." Gu Baiji interrupted him, "There are too many people making noise."

Liu Wangshan didn't have anything to say now, so he had to leave first, and let the nobles who came from afar to rest first.

After packing his luggage, Gu Baiji and Chu Wu asked the accompanying guards to leave.

After a brief wash, Chu Wu was brushing his hair, Gu Baiji took out his clean clothes and put them on the couch, and took the towel from his hand to clean his wet hair.

Chu Wushun sat down on the low stool to facilitate Gu Baiji's movements.

Gu Baiji wiped his hair and asked, "About Liu Wangshan, what's Ah Youke's opinion?"

Chu Wu shook his head slightly, "This Yuzhou is like a great mystery, revealing unusual things everywhere. There is a severe drought in Yuzhou, and the surrounding people are struggling to survive, but there is not a single refugee in this Yuzhou city."

During the journey to the prefect's mansion, he had observed that although the people here could not be regarded as rich and powerful, judging from their attire, it was obvious that they were not short on food and clothing.

Gu Baiji asked: "Then Ah You thinks that Liu Wangshan is well managed?"

Chu Wu shook his head, "It's not entirely true. If he really loves the people like a son and governs well, the gates of the city will not be closed."

The crops are not harvested, but the people in the city still have food. Obviously, there is grain in the Yuzhou granary.

Gu Baiji nodded in agreement. At this time, Liu Wangshan closed the city gates, obviously to prevent the victims from entering the city.

When waiting before, Gu Baiji observed that the weeds were messy under the city gate, and there were bloodstains that were not cleaned up.

Apparently, before they arrived, there were victims under the city wall who came to ask for help. Those bloodstains proved that these people were violently swept away. As for whether they were dead or alive in the end, and where they went, probably only the prefect Liu knew.

The few people had just washed up for a while, when Liu Wangshan came to invite them in person, saying that dinner was ready.

The few people along the way have not eaten well, and they are indeed a little hungry at this time.

Liu Wangshan obviously had a heart, and the dishes he prepared were all ordinary dishes. Although there were no delicacies from mountains and seas, it could be seen that some effort had been put into them. There were even a few pastries that are common in the capital.

After dinner, before Gu Baiji and the others could open their mouths, Liu Wangshan suddenly got up and came to Gu Baiji, knelt down and said: "I am guilty of a crime, I implore the two princes and generals, please punish!"

Gu Baiji put down his teacup, and asked curiously, "What does Prefect Liu mean?"

Liu Wangshan said: "Return to the general, since I came to Yuzhou, although I dare not take credit for it, it is not an exaggeration to say that I work hard, but the natural disaster is merciless, and the severe drought has taken away the livelihood of tens of thousands of people in Yuzhou. "

"so?"

Liu Wangshan continued: "There are too many disaster victims, the grain storage in Yuzhou's granary is limited, and there has been no response to the message sent by the lower officials to the capital. In desperation, the lower officials had to take the risk of committing a capital crime and close the gates of Yuzhou City, so... …at least it could save the lives of some people.”

His explanation was impeccable, otherwise, if he said that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and was reluctant to release food, the people in Yuzhou City would indeed live well.Even looking at Liu Wangshan, he is still frugal in dressing.

Chu Wudao: "In this case, it is justifiable."

"Thank you, my lord, for your understanding." Liu Wangshan said, and then said, "General and two lords, please rest assured, this official will definitely save the people of this city even if he starves himself to death. For the relief food, please return the general and lords directly. Send it elsewhere and distribute it to those who really need it."

Gu Baiji nodded, "That's the reason, please take a look at the map of Yuzhou, and point out the severe famine in the surrounding area, so it's easy to make arrangements. It's getting late today, so let's distribute the relief food first, and it will be ready tomorrow morning." sent to the victims."

Liu Wangshan said: "General, please, I guess the general may need these, and the officer has already prepared them."

Early the next morning, several people left the prefect's mansion.

Liu Wangshan was waiting outside the door early, and the temperature was relatively low at this time, and the cold air was a bit heavy.

The maid behind Liu Wangshan was holding two trays, on which were two hand warming stoves.

Seeing a few people coming out, Liu Wangshan greeted him first, and then said to Chu Wudao: "The climate in Yuzhou is quite different from that of the capital city. It is common for the sun to be hot at noon and cold in the morning and evening. The officials specially prepared hand warmers for the two lords." Stove, don't give up on it."

Chu Wu nodded: "I'm sorry for your trouble, the eunuch."

It's really cold at this time of year, Chu Wu himself doesn't care, but Chu Yu is not feeling well, so it will be much more comfortable to hold such a thing.
