The Queen Dressed as Lin's Sister

Chapter 117 1 Jar of Wine

Seeing the magistrate collapsed on the ground, Wu Zhao said with a smile, "What? Your Excellency is unwilling? Or... as rumored, Your Excellency is really corrupt and corrupt? You know... is this greedy for disaster relief money and food? Although my emperor has just ascended the throne and has a kind heart, he cannot treat such a shameless thief who eats the flesh and blood of refugees with mercy, and he must... let him die a good-looking death."

When Wu Zhao said this, the local magistrate and the yamen kowtowed in fright, and the yamen quickly gave the local magistrate a wink, and the local magistrate got up and said, "No, no, no! What I hate most is corrupt officials, the most hated! Yes yes yes yes , Your Majesty, let's go... let's take out the food and money, and help...relieve the refugees..."

At the end of his speech, he gritted his teeth, as if his heart ached, his heart was beating.

Wu Zhao said, "That's good."

Tu Zhifu looked distressed, and asked everyone to go to the house to rest first, Shui Rong helped Wu Zhao into the house, Tu Zhifu went to prepare for disaster relief, and quickly withdrew first.

Shui Rong sneered, and said, "If he says he's not greedy for money, no one will believe him."

Wu Zhao sat down slowly and said, "That's true."

Shui Rong said: "Why don't you let me investigate him?"

Wu Zhao smiled, and asked Shui Rong to sit down and rest for a while. Shui Rong sat down, but helped Wu Zhao squeeze her shoulders to relax her, so as not to be exhausted from the long journey.

Wu Zhao seemed to be enjoying it quite a bit. He relaxed and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, if you want to investigate the magistrate, you may be able to do so ten times or eight times. What's the rush? It's just that if the emperor investigates, you need According to the statute, the famine does not wait for anyone. Wherever the relief food for the victims is swallowed, it is impossible to spit it out immediately. Knowing to pretend to be confused, let him spit out the money and grain first, and then solve the urgent needs of the refugees."

Shui Rong just listened, smiled, held him in his arms, and said: "I knew Wu'er that you were smart, and I would be relieved to have you with me this trip."

The two of them rested for a while, and then the Tuzhifu and the yamen came. The two of them knelt at the door and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the relief money and food are ready. It's ok...you can do the relief."

When those two people talked, it seemed that their hearts were about to pop out. It was a heartache. Wu Zhao stood up, walked out together with Shui Rong, and looked at the food and money.

Sure enough, such a small place is just a local magistrate, and his family is quite rich. Wu Zhao is very satisfied with spending so much money and food all at once, not to mention.

Wu Zhao looked at the local prefect and Ya Nei with a smile. When they saw the beauty smile, they should be overwhelmed by it, but they didn't expect it. The smile made their backs go numb, and they felt chills.

Wu Zhao said: "The magistrate is really loyal. I feel that this disaster relief money seems to be more than what the imperial court distributed."

The local magistrate apologized and said with a smile: "Xiaguan...Xiaguan is loyal to the emperor and the empress, loyal to the emperor and the empress..."

Shui Rong said lightly: "Stop talking nonsense, and provide disaster relief immediately."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The local magistrate and Ya Nei quickly got up, and immediately asked the servants to open the gate to distribute relief food.

Shui Rong was afraid that Wu Zhao would be tired, so she asked Princess Yongning to support Wu Zhao to rest and supervise the food distribution by herself.

The people stayed here, and the big troops rushed over soon, and began to join in the disaster relief. Due to the earthquake, the weather here changed greatly, and it rained heavily all the time, and it would rain from time to time.

Shui Rong took Jia Yun and a group of subordinates to work outside, and went to the hardest-hit areas to investigate the situation, and sometimes they would not return to the magistrate's mansion all night.

Wu Zhao's body is weak, and she can't stand the cold, so Shui Rong won't let her go to the hardest-hit area, so she naturally stays in the mansion.

This morning, it was still cloudy and rainy outside, Wu Zhao opened his eyes in confusion, stretched out his hand and patted his side, and sure enough, there was no one else, and the bed was cold, so he propped himself up and sat up.

Her body became more and more tired, and she was really uncomfortable. Zijuan and Xueyan hurried over to help Wu Zhao wash and change clothes.

Wu Zhao said, "The emperor didn't come back last night?"

Zijuan nodded and said: "Yes, the emperor sent a letter back last night, saying that he was in the hardest-hit area. It has been raining these days, the river embankment has been washed away, and the grain fields have been flooded. Come back, please take good care of your body."

Wu Zhao nodded, and said, "If the emperor sends someone to bring a message back, tell that person, please take care of the dragon body."

Zijuan agreed, "Yes, ma'am."

It was very gloomy early in the morning, and it was raining all the time. At dusk, the rain stopped. Wu Zhao had been in the house for a long time, and was very bored. If he wanted to go out for a walk, the girls would accompany him. Come out with Wu Zhao.

There was nothing to see in the yard, but it was damp. Not only that, the flowers and plants were all washed away by the rain, and he lowered his head listlessly. I was going to read it, and I was about to turn around and go back.

Suddenly a guard ran over and said, "Ma'am, it's not good, all the horses we brought from the capital have fallen ill!"

Wu Zhao frowned and said, "What exactly is going on?"

The guard said: "Your Majesty, maybe the war horses are not acclimated to the water and the soil, and it rains continuously, and all the war horses fell ill, and some of them are foaming at the mouth, so they can't transport supplies normally at all!"

They brought a lot of war horses with them, all of them were good horses. Naturally, they were not purely for traveling, they were also used to deliver supplies, and they could also be used for disaster relief at critical moments. These war horses suddenly fell ill, and it was indeed very late.

The guard said: "The humble job has already sent someone to report to the emperor in the hardest-hit area, but the emperor doesn't know when he will come back. Madam, this matter cannot be delayed!"

Wu Zhao knew the importance of this matter, so he said, "Has the accompanying servant arrived?"

The guard said: "The accompanying servants have arrived, it's just...but no one can see what happened."

Wu Zhao decided to go over to have a look. Everyone rushed to the stables, and they saw the horses lying down. Most of them were lying down. They don't want to eat.

Wu Zhao didn't know how to raise a horse, and there was nothing he could do about it, but at this moment, he saw a man squatting in the corner. The bearded man, slovenly, was stroking a war horse gently. He didn't know what to feed, and said softly: "Good boy, hurry up and eat something, it will be fine after you eat it."

When the guard saw someone barging in and feeding the war horse, he immediately shouted, "Who's there!"

As he said that, a group of guards surrounded him with a "crash", surrounding the tall bearded man.

The bearded man stood up slowly. Wu Zhao looked at it and seemed to have some impressions. Isn't this the bearded groom who drove the carriage for the yamen that day?At that time, the groom even tried to persuade the yamen, but he didn't expect to be slapped by the yamen.

The guards surrounded him, fearing that someone might poison the horses. This man had a beard all over his face, and he couldn't see his face. He was tall and fierce, so he didn't look like a good person.

However, when the horse lying on the ground saw the guards surrounding the bearded man, it immediately struggled to stand up, as if it wanted to save the bearded man.

The war horse was brought from the palace, and it is said that it should have nothing to do with Big Beard, but this war horse seemed to want to save Big Beard, so it slapped its nose hard twice.

Wu Zhao narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute."

The guards immediately helped, looked at Wu Zhao, and let Wu Zhao deal with it.

Wu Zhao walked over, looked carefully at the bearded man, and said, "Do you know how to treat a doctor?"

The bearded man had a hoarse voice, and said in a low voice, "It's just some fur."

Wu Zhao said, "These horses are not acclimatized?"

The bearded man said: "It is true that the soil and water are not acclimatized, and it rains continuously here, the fodder is often soaked in water, and it is not good for the horses to eat."

Wu Zhao saw that what he said was so logical that even the accompanying eunuchs in the capital couldn't cure the horses, but the bearded man seemed to be able to handle it with ease.

Wu Zhao smiled and said, "Then please help me, sir, to save these horses."

The bearded man said, "Are you not afraid that I will poison your horses?"

"Presumptuous! This is the current empress!"

The guard immediately yelled and cursed, but Wu Zhao raised his hand, stopped the guard's words, and said with a smile: "I can tell from the behavior of the sir that you are a horse lover, and you will never do something like this for no reason, yes What, sir?"

The bearded man laughed and didn't speak, but quickly walked towards the stables, fed some herbs to the war horses, seemed to be talking to the war horses, reached out to caress the war horses, and chatted like chatting.

The accompanying eunuch looked down on the bearded man very much. He was an eunuch in the capital, and the eunuch temple was in charge of horses. All horses, whether they were carriages used for sacrifices or war horses on the battlefield, were managed by the eunuch temple. A disease that even a servant can't see, but a man with a big beard can see it?

The eunuch didn't quite believe it, but the next day, those war horses miraculously recovered, and each of them came back to life, neighing non-stop.

When Wu Zhao heard that the war horse had recovered, she felt relieved, so she asked the girl to accompany her to the stables to take another look.

When Wu Zhao entered the stable, he saw the bearded man. He was sitting in a stable, sitting on the ground, and he didn't dislike the mess in the stable. He reached out to caress a war horse. Only two eyes were exposed on his face, which was not drowned by the beard. , the eyes turned out to be very gentle, as if chatting with the horse.

Wu Zhao didn't ask the guards to report, but just stood aside and looked at it, taking a good chance, and always felt that this bearded man was a bit unusual.

Wu Zhao was carefully grooming the bearded man, when he was suddenly held in his arms, and his eyes were suddenly covered by a big hand, and he couldn't see anything immediately.

But Wu Zhao felt it immediately when he was held in his arms, it was definitely water-soluble.

Shui Rong's chest rose and fell, and his breath was not very steady. The weather here was very cold due to the overcast rain, but Shui Rong's body was steaming with heat, and he came back in a hurry. In addition, his breathing was not stable.

Wu Zhao didn't struggle, leaned against his arms, and heard Shui Rong whisper: "Wu'er looks at the man next to him like that, isn't he afraid of my taste?"

Wu Zhao chuckled, and stretched out his hand to push Shui Rong's hand away. Sure enough, the person behind him was Shui Rong. Shui Rong was walking in a hurry, with fine sweat on his forehead, obviously he came in a hurry.

Wu Zhao said with a smile: "Your majesty has a beautiful face, you should be more careful. I just look at other people, and it's nothing."

Shui Rong said: "That can't be done."

Wu Zhao smiled again, as if deliberately teasing him, and said, "Speaking of it, it's true, don't look at this bearded man with stubble all over his face, but he looks tall, if he shaved his beard, wouldn't he look pretty? "

Before she finished speaking, Shui Rong lowered her head and kissed Wu Zhao's lips. Wu Zhao was startled, there were girls and guards by her side.

Shui Rong hugged her, saw Wu Zhao's eyes widened, and looked like a frightened kitten, and said, "Huh? Are you scared now? It's too late."

As he spoke, he kissed Wu Zhao's lips again. Fortunately, it was not a deep kiss. He hadn't come back for a long time, and there were some stubbles on his beard, which was a little prickly. He usually had a well-dressed and suave appearance. The beard stubble looks a little decadent, and it is also indescribably charming, but the taste is different.

Wu Zhao stopped Shui Rong and said, "Don't make trouble for now."

Shui Rong smiled and said: "Okay, listen to Wu Er."

Wu Zhao really felt a little helpless, with such a clear love and obedience, he wished to praise her to the sky. To be honest, even if Wu Zhao had been a queen for 15 years, she hadn't experienced it before.

Shui Rong immediately turned serious, as if he wasn't the one who was making trouble with Wu Zhao just now, he helped Wu Zhao and walked over, and said, "That's the gentleman who rescued the horse?"

Seeing them coming in, the bearded man stood up from the ground, but he was very courteous, saluted respectfully, and said, "Greetings to the emperor and the empress."

Shui Rong nodded and said, "Sir, you don't need to be too polite. Now that you have saved the horse, what reward do you want?"

The bearded man couldn't see any expression because his face was full of beards, and there was a large area of ​​hair. He only heard him say: "The villain is humble, and I don't have anything I want. If the emperor doesn't give up, can I reward the villain for a while?" altar wine."

Wu Zhao was a little surprised and said, "Wine?"

The bearded man smiled and said, "It's just wine. I haven't had wine for quite a while, so I'm just a bit greedy."

Shui Rong frowned, Wu Zhao thought about it and smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll have someone bring you wine later."

The bearded man hurriedly saluted and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Madam."

This place is a stable, after all it is not too clean, Shui Rong was afraid that this place would not be good for Wu Zhao, so he helped Wu Zhao to go back, when the two of them left the stable, Shui Rong frowned and said, "This man is really weird."

But Wu Zhao smiled and said: "Weird is indeed weird, but it's also really interesting. For such a great achievement, he doesn't want money or women, but just a jar of wine. I think this person is getting more and more interesting." .”

When Shui Rong heard it, there was a crisis of alarm bells in his heart. He brought Wu Zhao into the room, didn't let the girl in, closed the door directly, and pushed him against the door panel.

Wu Zhao looked at Shui Rong in surprise, and Shui Rong lowered his voice. His voice was already low, but when he lowered it, it became even more magnetically hoarse. He clung to Wu Zhao's ear and whispered, "Wu Er has been talking about the other side just now. Man, if I'm not here for a few days, does Wu'er ever miss me?"

Wu Zhao felt that his ears were numb, and Shui Rong deliberately lowered his voice. If it was the woman next to him, he would have thrown himself into his arms for a long time. tremor.

Wu Zhao raised his head, stretched out his hand to lift his chin, and said, "The emperor has such a handsome appearance, let alone a few days, I miss him so much when he is not by my side for a moment."

Shui Rong smiled, raised his head obediently, and said, "Really? How can Wu'er's sweet words be smoother than mine?"
