Chapter 164 Preventing Floods
Yu Jiuer ran downstairs and immediately went to Anying: "Let me ask you, when you went to the palace last night, who told you that the prince had not returned yet?"
"Jian Yi and Jian Si said that together!" Shadow answered honestly.
Yu Jiuer frowned and said, "Jian Yi and Jian Si are not very smart, why would they go to the trouble of telling you at the same time that the prince is not in the mansion?
No! Something must have happened to the prince! Go to the palace again and ask quietly where the palace doctor is. "
Yu Jiuer thought of the dream she had last night, and her heart ached. She hoped that she was just overthinking it!
Taking advantage of the gap, Yu Jiuer quickly ordered people to notify the people to evacuate, and asked the lady and others to take the children to Xiguanying to ask Cheng Ming for help and hide first.
"It's only been raining heavily for two days. Why are you so scared?" Aunt Qu climbed onto the carriage reluctantly, holding the child.
Even the eldest lady who had always supported her started to complain: "Look at you, you are making a fuss!"
Wuyan and Muxier led their servants to carry large and small bags onto the carriage.
Wuyan said to Yu Jiuer aggrievedly: "If there hadn't been a flood, you would have to apologize to us and make hot pot for us!"
No matter how the cook tried, the food couldn't taste as good as Yu Jiuer's. But she was too busy and always had no time, which made Wuyan miss her all the time. She had never missed Cheng Ming this much.
Yu Jiuer smiled and coaxed, "Okay, okay! As long as you guys behave, I can do anything! Just give me some peace of mind! Get in the car!"
After arranging for her family to leave, Yu Jiuer came to the old city in the rain. She only saw a few scattered people carrying their belongings and walking towards Xiguanying in the rain.
"Why are there only so few people taking action?" Yu Jiuer asked Cheng An loudly.
Cheng An ran up and said, "Many people don't believe that a flood will come. I have tried to persuade them for a long time, but only a small number of people took action!"
Yu Jiuer could only resort to ruthless tactics and said angrily: "If you go again, tell them that the county magistrate has issued a notice. If you don't move to Xiguanying, you won't get this year's year-end bonus!"
His words really worked. Within an incense stick of time, groups of people appeared on the main road and headed to Xiguanying together.
Yu Jiuer said with emotion: "The bonus is still attractive!"
Yueying, who was holding an umbrella for her, nodded and said coldly, "Because no one wants to be wronged!"
At this time, a shadow jumped from a distance to Yu Jiuer's eyes, and said with a bow: "My lord, something happened! The prince seems to be injured. Several palace doctors have gathered in the prince's courtyard, and the four guards and Wei Zheng are also there!"
Yu Jiuer felt a blackness in front of her eyes. She held Yueying's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry, let's go to the palace!"
When they arrived at Prince Jing's mansion, Wei Zheng wanted to reach out to stop them, but Yu Jiuer pointed at him and said, "If the prince blames you, I'll take the blame for you!"
These words successfully made Wei Zheng and the four guards retreat silently.
Stepping into the room filled with the smell of medicine, Yu Jiuer's feet felt as if they were filled with lead and weighed a thousand pounds. She was so afraid that what she would see was the bloody Jun Mo in her dream.
"You're here?" Jun Mo extended his hand to her, his eyes shooting sharply at Wei Zheng and the others, "Didn't I tell you not to tell Jiu'er? Are you all just decorations? Go and show off in the rain!"
Wei Zheng and the others bowed and were about to step into the rain obediently, when Yu Jiuer spoke up at the right time: "Don't! I had a nightmare last night and barged in. Don't blame them! But why didn't you protect yourself, Your Majesty?"
At this point, Wei Zheng seemed to have found an ally. He turned around and said confidently, "Ninth Miss, you don't know how brave the prince was yesterday. He dared to rush into the enemy camp alone, even though there were many dead soldiers. If we hadn't arrived in time, the prince..."
"Shut up!" Jun Mo scolded.
"You are a flesh and blood person, do you still think you are indestructible?" Yu Jiuer wiped away the tears that had fallen without knowing when, and pouted her lips to accuse.
"You still owe me money! If you die, I will go to the underworld to file a complaint and demand payment from you!"
"Are you really looking forward to dying for me?" Jun Mo thought about the ten thousand taels he borrowed from her in order to make her think of him all the time. It turned out to be the right thing to do!
He curled his lips and said, "My life is tough, even God dare not take it away! Don't worry!"
"Are you still trying to be stubborn?" Yu Jiuer pounced on him, grabbed his uninjured hand, and started biting it!
Jun Mo was very patient. He didn't even frown. Instead, he stared at Yu Jiuer lovingly, which made Yu Jiuer's face feel hot.
"By the way, Your Majesty, I want to tell you about the heavy rain in the past two days..."
After listening to Yu Jiuer's explanation, Jun Mo made a prompt decision and turned around and ordered: "Wei Zheng, tell everyone in the mansion to pack up their things and move to Xiguanying immediately! Anyone who disobeys orders will be kicked out of the palace!"
Wei Zheng's eyes widened: "Your Highness, it just rained for two days and the crops were flooded. Is that a big deal?"
Li Yun also cupped his hands and advised: "Your Majesty, please remember that beauty is a calamity!"
Jian Yi was honest and sincere, and he gave a frank advice: "My Lord, you should know when to stop pampering your wife!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Jiuer almost wanted to jump up and fight. Ever since these people knew that Yu Wushuang was Yu Jiuer, they became more and more disrespectful to her. Can't a woman be stronger than a man?
She put her hands on her waist and cursed: "You ungrateful people, I am saving your lives!"
She looked up at the other three guards, they all avoided her gaze and did not believe Yu Jiuer's prediction of the flood at all.
Yu Jiuer had no choice but to say painfully: "Okay! If there hadn't been a flood, I would have prepared a full banquet for you to apologize!"
"That's not necessary..." Wei Zheng was shocked by Jun Mo's eyes before he finished speaking. With a strong desire to survive, he immediately put on a smiling face.
"How can we let the future Princess Jing spend money? I'll tell everyone to move immediately!"
The four guards and Li Yun also fled and hurried to pack their things.
After everyone left, Yu Jiuer asked, "Does the prince trust me so much?"
"Of course!" Jun Mo's eyes were deep, and there was something meaningful in the look he gave Yu Jiuer.
This made Yu Jiuer feel confused. Could it be that he discovered that the soul in her body was unusual?
This man is so terrible!
Otherwise, I should find an opportunity to confess to him, so as to avoid being worried all day long.
However, if she dared to say it, would he dare to believe it?
Finally, Lian Junmo was carried to Xiguanying.
Yu Jiuer still had some things to do, so she didn't follow immediately.
She went to the county government office and told all the runners, "Look around, and don't let go of anyone who can breathe! All of them, get them to squat on the Great Wall of Xiguanying."
Until the very end, when the yamen runners brought the county's last living thing—a big cat—Yu Jiuer shouted, "Call it a day!"
"Why don't you even let the cat go?" Cheng An couldn't help but despise him.
The bailiff muttered, "My Lord said that everyone who can breathe must be included!"
Cheng An scolded him: "Why don't you catch the mouse and bring it up the mountain as well? You fool!"
It's so rare to find someone who is even more stupid than him. He would be letting himself down if he didn't say a few words to him!
It was already midnight when Yu Jiuer arrived at Xiguanying.
She didn't have time to rest and hurried to see the people.
All the rooms in Xiguanying were allocated to people of status and position, and the common people could only crowd into bunkers, squatting, standing, or just sitting on the ground huddled together.
Some people even simply squeezed on the Great Wall road together with chickens, ducks, cows, sheep and pigs.
Fortunately, Cheng Ming cooperated with Yu Jiuer in advance and temporarily built a tarpaulin shed on the road.
In this way, everyone finally has a place to wait.
However, many people are indeed very dissatisfied with such a large-scale mobilization.
Except for those who blindly worship Yu Jiuer and obey her orders, everyone else dares to be angry with her but not to speak out.
However, there were some people who were confused and began to mock Yu Jiuer.
Especially the evil spirits like Xiang Fei and the eldest princess, the evil spirits in the gossip map burst out again: "Master Yu, you are so skilled in using the power of the tiger to bully others! You are so majestic!"
Yu Jiuer had been busy from morning till midnight and was exhausted. All kinds of doubts made her already tired heart begin to get irritated, so she retorted without any hesitation: "If you don't agree, bite me!"
"How dare you be so arrogant when you spread such evil words to confuse the people?" Concubine Xiang slammed the table and stood up, ready to curse like a shrew.
Concubine Duan stood up in time to speak for Yu Jiuer: "Everyone, please stop talking! Anyone who doesn't want to stay here can go back by themselves! There are many people in Xiguanying who want clean rooms and beds!"
Questioning Yu Jiuer is questioning her son, and she will never allow it!
Xiang Fei said angrily: "Are those houses also for people to live in? Dog kennels are better than that! Isn't it just a little rain? Why are you making such a fuss? I think you just want to challenge the imperial power!"
"If it's so effective, why don't you just become a god? It's totally nonsense!" The eldest princess took over the conversation and glared at Yu Jiuer several times.
Many soldiers in the Xiguan Camp and the Yulin Army were forced to obey this unfounded prophecy, and they had many complaints!
In this regard, Yu Jiuer could only pretend not to hear it. In her opinion, human life is more important than anything else!
Sure enough, in the second half of the night, a loud noise was heard, and the mountain to the north seemed to explode suddenly, and mud, stones, branches, etc. rushed down fiercely with the angry rain!
"The flood! The flood has really broken out!"
"Everyone, look! It's a mudslide! Oh my god! Master Yu is truly a god!"
"Thank you, Master Yu, for saving my life!"
......
The people on the Great Wall Road were the first to see the floods and mudslides. They were extremely shocked, but at the same time they were also glad that they listened to the county magistrate and saved their lives!
