Chapter 82 Guawazi’s happy time
After listening to Dong Shisan's words, Xie Yanyan suddenly understood what Xu Xiangpu said. To some people, natural disasters are good opportunities.

Because the prince and King Xi arrived, the inspection at Xiangyang City Gate was particularly strict.

In Xiangyang these days, even the common people are not allowed to walk freely on the streets. There are too many noble people, and the county governor is afraid of something happening.

The governor of Xiangyang mobilized all the 2 garrison troops stationed there, and the city of Xiangyang was surrounded like an iron barrel.

When you enter the city, your ID is checked, and if you are not suitable at all, you will be kicked out of the city.

Dong Shisan was the prince's personal bodyguard, so his inspection of Zhou Shaoyu and the others was much more relaxed.

Entering the city, he roared towards the palace where the prince was.

A few people went to wash up first, and then went to see Prince Fu Hong together.

The prince came out excitedly, stood on the steps, accepted their salutes, and let them into the room.

Seeing Xu Wenrong, he asked in surprise: "Is this Mr. Xu?"

Xu Wenrong bowed respectfully: "Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince hurriedly gave him a hand, showing his utmost courtesy.

"Who are you and Miss Xie?"

"Yanyan is my cousin, and General Xie is my cousin."

The prince was overjoyed, now that the Xu family and the Xie family can be used by Gu, his father is indeed the most affectionate towards Gu.

The prince looked at Xie Yanyan, his eyes as bright as stars: "Are you tired along the way? It's hot, I've really worked hard on you."

Xie Yanyan:
"Tea."

Zhou Shaoyu looked at the prince's courtesy without blinking, wondering at which angle he could kick someone to death.

The scented tea specially prepared by the palace to relieve the summer heat tasted pretty good. Everyone greeted him politely, and Xie Yanyan just drank the tea slowly and sat quietly.

After talking for a long time, the prince ordered the meal to be passed around.

The food in the palace is relatively exquisite, and they are all made by the most famous local chefs. They also considered the heat of summer and cooked a lot of meals to dispel the heat.

"I am going to the northwest to control the disaster. My father attaches great importance to it. Anyone who can control the locusts can go. If one person can control the locusts, one person will be rewarded. If everyone cooperates to control the locusts, everyone will be rewarded. We must help Daqin. People, let’s survive this disaster.”

Therefore, several groups of people have gathered in Xiangyang City, all preparing to go to the northwest to control locusts.

Zhou Shaoyu asked: "Where does Your Majesty hope to stop the locusts? To the west of the Qinling Mountains?"

"Of course the farther away the better, it must be blocked to the west of Chang'an."

Xie Yanyan said to the prince: "Your Highness, please send a message to all counties and counties as soon as possible, dig ditches to divert the canals, dig ditches to block them, drive the locusts into the ditches, gather them and annihilate them. Then prepare fires and trap them."

The prince said: "This method has been recorded in ancient books, and the county governor has implemented it."

No matter what Xie Yanyan meant, whether the locals thought of it or not, the prince should tell him this method first.

The prince understood instantly and immediately arranged for Dong Liu to do it.

[Ms. Xie is planning for the orphan to win the support of the people]

The disaster relief was urgent. After everyone finished eating and chatting for half an hour, the prince and his entourage left for Chang'an.

The prince's chariot drove forward, and people from all walks of life in Xiangyang caught up with him.

No one wants to run ahead of the prince, but no one wants to fall behind the prince.

Xie Yanyan was speechless listening to the news reported by Zhou Jin.

The road to the west of Xiangyang is not easy to walk. This place is full of mountains and rivers, and is the most concentrated place with mountains.

The prince is young, about the same age as Zhou Shaoyu, elegant and kind, and seems to be weak, but in order to set an example, he gritted his teeth and held on even when he was tired.

Since coming out of Xiangyang Palace, I have only slowed down when I arrived at Gucheng. I ran more than 90 kilometers. The road at this time was not like the highway of the 22nd century. It was bumpy and still a dirt road.

The prince had indeed reached his limit by walking so far in one breath.

Entering the boundary of Gucheng, the prince's personal guards had already arrived in Gucheng in advance to send a message to the prince. All Gucheng officials had left the city and knelt on the roadside to greet him.

The car was resting at Duck Lake. The prince looked tired and his hair was a little loose. Eunuch Liu Qi hurriedly combed his hair and cleansed his face. Zhou Shaoyu said outside Xie Yanyan's car window: "Come down and have a rest?"

Xie Yanyan came down and looked in the direction of Duck Lake. Zhou Shaoyu immediately said: "Let's go, can I accompany you to have a look?"

Xu Wenrong followed immediately.

Duck Lake is quite large. Due to the drought, the water level has dropped sharply. The water plants near the lake are extremely lush, and the rocks near the water are covered with snails.

Xie Yanyan was thinking about getting some snails and popping them in sauce?
Zhou Shaoyu saw her catching snails and said that they were dirty and couldn't be eaten.

"Do you want to eat fish? There must be some in Gucheng, can I get it for you?" Zhou Shaoyu watched her twisting screws, thinking that maybe she was craving seafood?

"Can we not go to the prince's entertainment later?"

"You don't want to go?"

"Well, trouble."

Zhou Shaoyu said if you don't want to go, then don't go. Anyway, they are hosting the prince.

While the two were talking, they saw flowers blooming in the lake, and Zhou Jin shouted: "There are fish."

You can't catch fish even if you have no tools.

Xie Yanyan silently looked at his own space: Yes! Fishing rods and nets are available!
However, she only took a simple metal pole to copy the net.

She took out the net from her "magic carriage" and handed it to Zhou Shaoyu.

Throwing bait into the water, the half-length small silver carp immediately gathered, and not long after, the big fish came, with several big black fish swimming over.

Zhou Shaoyu pulled up the front and tucked it around his waist, bent down and got ready.

When the group of fish were eating the bait, Zhou Shaoyu swung down the net with lightning speed.

Zhou Jin shouted: "Caught! The prince caught a big fish!"

There was a bucket on the carriage. Add a little water and put the fish in. The fish weighed 6 or 7 kilograms.

"It's a jì fish." Zhou Shaoyu stretched out his hand to pick it up and showed it to Xie Yanyan, and asked proudly, "Is it big?"

Xie Yanyan glanced at it several times. Isn't this a mandarin fish? What is it called jì fish?

The fish struggled and flapped its tail vigorously, splashing water on Xie Yanyan's face. Zhou Shaoyu almost didn't even think about it and immediately stretched out his back to wipe the water from her face.

After wiping it, he found that the water was not wiped off and a piece of fish scale was on it, so he pulled up the hem of his clothes and wiped her face.

He moved so fast that Xie Yanyan didn't react at once and let him wipe it a few times.

After noticing it, he tilted his head back and said, "No need to wipe it."

Zhou Shaoyu seemed unaware and said excitedly: "How will we eat later? We need to catch a few more, this one is not enough."

Xu Wenrong saw that the two of them didn't care and felt that he was overthinking it. A melon boy helped his friend wipe his face, right?

No matter what, let's cover up this scene quickly.

"Your Majesty, give me the net and I will try it too."

Xie Yanyan spread some more bait and stood by the water to watch Xu Wenrong netting fish.

Xu Wenrong saw the opportunity and went down with the net to catch a mandarin fish, which was estimated to weigh 4 kilograms.

Although we were all short of money and food, we were very excited to catch the big fish with our own hands.

The melons were howling, and the prince felt very itchy, so he said to Liu Qi, "My dear friend, I want to see them too."

Liu Qi reminded: "Oh, Your Highness, you can't go there. The prince loves to play, so it's okay to get covered in mud, but the civil and military officials in Gucheng are still waiting for you, so you can't get covered in mud!"

The prince watched with envy as Zhou Shaoyu and his entourage came up the official road squealing as if they had picked up eight million silver.

The big bucket was mentioned in front of him. The prince was very happy when he saw such a big bucket of fish: "So many?"

Xu Wenrong said seriously: "There are big fish in the lake, which means that the world of Da Qin is rich and has more than enough year after year."
