Chapter 40
###40 Marriage is destined
The era has come, no one can escape, and no one can stay out of it.

There was a banquet in the palace, with cups and glasses mingling among each other, and crowns and crowns gathered in the palace.

Since it was a banquet in the palace, there were delicacies, fine wines, and elegant music dancers. What surprised Ze Yu was that after the dancers, there were musicians playing the chimes. The musicians were highly skilled and the chime sounds were just right. They did not take away from the dancers' grace, and each tune was very harmonious. It's all in harmony and complement each other.

Before she had time to take a closer look at the scenery in the palace, the palace servants led her to sit in the back row of the eldest prince.

After entering the palace, there was a talent show in the palace, and by some strange coincidence, she was said to be the youngest daughter of Prince Qin of Prince Yan's palace, and she was promised to the eldest prince as his concubine.The envoy's trip can be said to be smooth and smooth.

Seeing the difficult life of the people in the palace before entering the palace, Ze Yu was worried at first, but in the palace for half a month, it was useless to worry. My heart finally let go of half of it.

Her father's whereabouts are now unknown, and Sawatomon's future falls on her shoulders.My father said that the only chance for Sawayamon to survive without relying on other people's faces lies in this era.But what kind of opportunity is it?

She works hard and is cautious, just to become the successor of Wancheng.

After all the evil spirits are eliminated on land, and the war subsides, she can return to the water and bring glory to the Zeta Gate.Now that she has taken the first step, she will make sure that nothing goes wrong with the second step.

The key to the second step is the successor of the royal bloodline, who is now her husband - the eldest prince Xiao Yu.

Raise your shoulders slightly and keep breathing.

Concubine Qi smiles like a flower, and the emperor loves her so much that all the music, flavors of the dishes, and flower decorations at the banquet are carefully prepared according to Concubine Qi's preferences.Concubine Qi naturally had a smile on her face, and she looked like she held great power and looked upon the world as a mother.

Although she is not a queen, no one in the court respects her; although her son is not a crown prince, everyone knows that the future seated on this magnificent dragon chair will be this majestic, brave and scheming prince.

It is strange to say that the emperor relied on Concubine Qi for everything, except that he did not establish a prince for her.Princess Qi's power over the government only allowed Xiao Yu to gain more support from courtiers.

The emperor seemed invisible to all this.

My father once said that now the emperor is like a walking corpse, so what does this mean?

If the emperor is a fool, it will be a natural punishment for the people to have a hard time, and it will be a destiny to change the dynasty.

Ze Yu carefully observed the person on the dragon chair. This person was the prince who was sacrificed in blood back then, and he was the person Master Ye fully protected.

No one knows what happened to Master Ye on land underwater. No one except the Lord of Yuzhe City knows what happened that year.All I know is that Master Ye committed a serious crime and was almost imprisoned in a water prison for the rest of his life to refine his body.It was the Lord of Yuzhe City who tried every means to save her, but was deprived of her hearing and banned from singing forever.This is tantamount to life worse than death for people underwater.

The person sitting in front of her is the bloodline she wants to protect. "Once we make a contract, we will stick together to the death."

This is not only her promise, but also an underwater promise to the royal family.

"Your Majesty, the whereabouts of the first tranche of disaster relief money and grain are unknown. The people were already complaining a lot. Fortunately, the eldest prince was not afraid of hardships and delivered the second tranche of disaster relief money and grain to the people of Suishan in time. Now all the grain has been distributed to the local people, and the people are at peace. The lower official believes that the eldest prince risked his life and entered Suishan again, which is indispensable."

"Gao Lun is right. Yu'er's re-entry to Suishan this time has contributed a lot to alleviating the disaster situation and people's grievances. He should be rewarded heavily. Give him a hunk of pearls."

The emperor said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, although the people are staying at home for the time being, the relief food can only relieve their temporary worries. They will miss the spring plowing. After that, the people of Suishan will need to have food sent in from the outside for the entire year. Let's leave this matter aside. What I am most worried about is that not restricting people from going out will cause the disaster to spread outwards, and I am afraid that the food sent in will only give people the strength to move to other nearby villages."

The people on the dragon chair nodded in a kind manner, and said, "Do you have a good plan, my lords?"

"Father, any good strategy is not as important as eliminating the epidemic." This is Xiao Yu, the eldest prince who is rumored to never give up on pleasure and regards the country, the country and the suffering of the people as his own responsibility.

The eyebrows are full of confidence, the voice is upright, and every word is reasonable.

After all, she was still a girl, so Ze Yu had a faint pink color on her face.

"Does Yu'er have any good ideas?"

"The source of the epidemic is the red rain, so it is natural to stop the red rain."

The music and dance stopped at some point, and everyone in the hall whispered to each other, not knowing what they were talking about.

Keep your shoulders rising and breathing.

People on land are indeed very complicated. The voices and faces of the people sitting in the palace are all hidden, completely different from their appearance. Under water, only the masters' cultivation can hide their true faces like this.

It's so hard to figure out what everyone is thinking.

Ze Yu shook his head gently to calm down, and then locked his eyes firmly on Xiao Yu.

"I have found a way to stop the red rain. I am returning to the palace this time to ask my father to issue an order to close the city for three days. After three days, I will definitely be able to stop the red rain."

"Brother already has a good plan?"

The third prince stood up indifferently, and with his seemingly casual question, the ministers all around stopped whispering and all looked at Xiao Yu.

"The red rain is caused by strange beasts. It is recorded in the first volume of "Fenhai Ballad". In Mengchun, the east wind thawed. The stinging insects began to vibrate, and the fish were on the ice. Its color was blue, the sky was high, and if it was a different color, the water was turbid, and it was red rain. When the people descended, there was a great epidemic among the people.

This time, I explored the water color of Wangyou Lake in Suishan Mountain. Wangyou Lake was originally a salt water lake, but now it has turned from salty to light, and monsters are causing chaos. The red rain is not rain, but lake water.Therefore, the key to eradicating the epidemic lies in Wangyou Lake. If the lake is cured, the rain will stop and the epidemic can be eliminated. "

"Since Yu'er has a good plan, Your Majesty, let's leave this matter to him. How about we order him to go to Suishan tomorrow after a good night tonight?"

After Concubine Qi finished speaking, she drank half a mouthful of wine, put down the jade cup leisurely, and smiled gently at the emperor.

The emperor asked: "Is it too hasty to leave tomorrow?"

"Father, the people have been suffering from the disaster for many days and cannot wait a moment longer."

"Father, my son thinks that the closure of the city will cause panic among the people, and the locals regard Wangyou Lake as a holy lake. If they rashly announce that there are strange beasts in the lake, they may not be able to stabilize the people's hearts."

The third prince tried his best to persuade, but none of the ministers supported him. Everyone wanted to solve the Suishan matter as soon as possible. It was really beyond their power to stop the eldest prince's actions.

How could Xiao Jin not know that although he was also a prince, he had no party members in the palace. He was just a foil with a noble status but could not speak.

He never complained about it.However, Ye Xiaolou had to deal with another troublesome matter, which really made him feel guilty.
