Lady Changning

Chapter 77 Prediction (1)

"Mother, can you calm down? If you don't calm down, I will fight for mother." Xi Changning's words calmed down the lady.

What does she want to do?May be what everyone wants to ask.

"I'm just a maid. Mother wouldn't really think that I love you. To be honest, I feel sorry for elder brother. Eldest brother is an upright person. Everyone knows that he has explained this matter repeatedly. But mother loves her son like her own life. If It's fine if you take Bao'er's life away. Don't let big brother feel bad for the rest of his life, and even complain about mother, that's not good."

Xi Changning wanted to save He Lianbao, but he must not let Da Furen and Xi Hanxue overestimate He Lianbao's status, otherwise He Lianbao and her would have a hard time in the future.

The only one who can save He Lianbao is Xi Lin. Xi Changning took advantage of the mother-child relationship between Da Furen and Xi Lin indiscriminately. What the Da Furen did before made Xi Lin more and more alienated. If you count on him, you absolutely dare not make any mistakes.

"Mother, please let Bao'er go."

He Lianbao's eyes were blurred by Xi Lin's words, and her blue eyes were full of water vapor. She was a person who could resist anything, and Xi Changning was the benefactor of her clan. Without Xi Changning, how could Hucheng be prosperous today? , so she would rather be beaten than Xi Changning to come forward.

But Xi Lin was different, he didn't talk much, didn't meet much, but he had to treat her like this. She didn't understand, really didn't understand why Xi Lin would do this.

"Let her go." Faced with the threat of Xi Changning's words, in the end the eldest lady compromised.

Xi Hanxue also breathed a sigh of relief, not because He Lianbao was rescued, but because the eldest lady stopped her hands and nothing will happen. On the one hand, she is glad that she did not participate, and people can see that she has been practicing for more than a year. gentle mask.

After He Lianbao was untied, he immediately wanted to check on Xi Lin's injuries, but was stopped by Xi Changning.

"Bao'er isn't coming with me yet!" It was also rare for Xi Changning to be so indifferent to Helian Bao.

On the way back to Tayue Pavilion, He Lianbao still couldn't stop her tears from falling down. She was also injured, but she didn't feel anything, not even the slightest pain, and she was still thinking about others.

"Don't wipe it, if you wipe your red mark again, you will wipe it off."

Only Xi Changning's words stopped He Lianbao's tears.

"Bao'er, I don't blame you. But I also hope you understand this matter. There is still a thing between people, and that thing is called disparity."

He Lianbao was slightly taken aback, Xi Changning said this for her own good, just now Da Furen also saw the battle, completely disregarding her life, if it wasn't for Xi Changning, she might have been beaten to death.But this is all because she provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked, Xi Lin.

"I understand. Don't worry, I won't go to him."

The disparity is nothing to He Lianbao, but she is now a servant girl in the Xiangfu, taking orders from Xi Changning, so the disparity naturally exists, and it is impossible for her to abandon her clansmen.

"Sister Bao'er, you have to understand that we are masters and servants in Xiangfu, but in fact we are friends and relatives. You don't have to look at me with such a foreign look. He should not see him, but if there is a destiny, Helian Bao can Met him." Xi Changning looked at He Lianbao's innocent eyes and said.

Emotions are very weak for Helianbao who is Jiji, but Xi Changning's words comforted her. Now that she is Bao'er, just keep her duty. Who knows about Helianbao who is out of the prime minister's house.

This incident calmed down with Xi Changning's words, and He Lianbao stopped running to the Qilin Courtyard, as if everything had returned to the calmness of the past, but some people's hearts may not be peaceful.

It has been raining heavily for the past two days, and it seems that it has been raining this summer.

The person curled up in the quilt on the bed, no matter how wrapped in the quilt, his whole body was cold, and it seemed as if someone had put ice cubes on his knees, which was cold and painful.

"I've used up all the medicinal oil, why has it been raining this summer?" Mingyu complained.

He Lianbao still rubbed Xi Changning's knee vigorously, he was really afraid that if the rain continued, Xi Changning's leg would definitely be wiped off a layer of skin.

"Even the water in the lake has risen. I wonder if it will be flooded?"

Xi Changning suddenly jumped out of bed, ignoring the pain in his leg, opened the window and looked at the lake.

"What day is today?"

Mingyu was surprised, the young lady had forgotten about her life.He picked up the calendar booklet on the desktop and handed it over.

Xi Changning turned it over and over again, still unable to believe it.

"Bao'er, go prepare the carriage, I'm going to Hucheng!"

"You want to go out on this kind of day?" Usually it rains and asks the prince for leave instead of going to the academy, why do you think of going to Hucheng?

"Mingyu changed my clothes for me."

Xi Changning didn't explain a word, only she knew what she was doing now.

Hucheng
Mingyu took an autumn cloak for Xi Changning to drive away the cold air emanating from his body.Although Xi Changning felt that doing so would not have any effect at all.

"Zimu, I want you to take people to the granaries in various places to collect grain now, the more the better."

Xi Changning shared the decisions he made along the way.

"Food?" Zimu is different, food is not within the scope of Hucheng's business, after all, the world's granary refers to Xuanjia.

"Don't worry about so much, Xuanfu's grain shops don't need to accept it, but some small shops. The price is up to you."

Xi Changning was very confident in the past, but if he spoke, he lacked confidence, Zimu saw the difference, stepped forward to check, and found that her body was cold.

"What's going on?" Zimu looked at Mingyu and asked.

"The cold air enters the body, it's like this every time it's rainy, and the doctor can't do anything about it." Mingyu seemed a little helpless.

Zimu picked up Xi Changning and went into her room regardless of other people's eyes.He laid Xi Changning down flat, put his palms together, lifted up with a surge of true energy, and then lightly placed his palms between Xi Changning's knees.

In the end, Xi Changning felt that she was surrounded by warm sunshine, and the chills all over her body gradually subsided. Perhaps it was because of the recent rain that made her unable to sleep due to the pain. Now that her whole body is relaxed, she can finally fall asleep.

Zimu looked at Xi Changning who was sleeping, her quiet appearance was as pure as a child's, and without calculating thoughts, she was just a young girl who had not yet grown up.He caressed Xi Changning's cheek with both hands, but flinched in an instant, feeling like he was getting an electric shock.

When Xi Changning woke up, he saw Zimu sitting quietly not far away, looking outside the door, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Zimu, why don't you ask me why I collect food?"

"Why?" He wanted to ask, but because of his status, he always felt that Xi Changning was reasonable.

"I'm afraid that few people will believe me if I tell you."

"I believe it." He looked at Xi Changning firmly, his eyes that had always been cold were now full of color.

"Floods, plagues, the people are in dire straits."

Zimu frowned. It has been raining heavily for several days now, and there is no tendency to stop at all, but the flood can be seen now?

"You don't have to think deeply, just do as I tell you." Xi Changning knew that Zimu still had some doubts.

"I understand." Knowing his identity, he should know what he should do. He is a slave, and now his identity is given by Xi Changning, it's just a shadow.

Zimu still followed Xi Changning's instructions and took people around to buy grain. Because of the heavy rain, some grains could not be sold.

But the flood Xi Changning mentioned never came, but the heavy rain never stopped.

Xi Changning is like making a gamble to see if God will let her win this time. If she wins, she will have an advantage in choosing a concubine. If she loses, I am afraid that Hu Cheng's recent Profits are all in vain.

Everything can only wait quietly.

Half a month later, just as Xi Changning said, the flood broke out suddenly, especially in the area near the north. Some villages were completely washed away overnight, and there were as many refugees as a feather.

The originally expected Concubine Selection Ceremony has been postponed again and again, and the court is also in a state of desperation.It is not difficult to see from Xi Jian's frowning when he returns home very late every day.

In recent days, a lot of refugees have come to the capital. Some officials wanted to deceive others, so they used all their forces to drive the refugees out of the city.

Tayue Pavilion

Xi Changning looked at the letter in his hand, it was Zimu's reply that she asked He Lianbao to send the letter back to Hucheng.

The letter only mentions that Hucheng has taken in many refugees, and I am afraid that more refugees will come if the news spreads. Although there is a lot of food, this is only a temporary need.I want to know what Xi Changning is going to do.

Xi Changning knew that his plan was one step closer.

"What are you thinking about? I'm distracted, and I don't cry about the pain today." He Lianbao sat down beside Xi Changning. Now that there is no maid in Tayue Pavilion, she just got up casually.

"When did I cry for pain?" Xi Changning argued, not caring about He Lianbao's lack of discipline.

"I didn't yell out, but I knew it hurt just by looking at your expression. Now that the Jiangbei area is still flooded, I suddenly feel that the world is in chaos." He Lianbao said casually.

"Is it this world or your heart? Brother, the medicine is here again. Your injury has long since healed, and you have come forward to say it, don't be so deliberate. I didn't force you." Xi Changning looked at He Lianbao in surprise It looks a little like laughing.

"I'm afraid there will be no one to come out now. The emperor has summoned everyone who can think of a way."

emperor?After a few days, she must find a way to stand out in front of the emperor, otherwise, judging from her background and the power distribution in the palace, it will be difficult for her to be the crown prince and concubine.

Now Xi Changning does not have enough power to fight against a queen mother. Even if there is a queen, she is just a pawn. What she wants to do is to support the sky without relying on anyone.

"Bao'er, go drink Zimu and say, those refugees will help if they can, and if they can't help, then find a way to help. I want everyone to remember Hu Cheng!"

He Lianbao glanced at Xi Changning, she was such an odd girl, if she followed her, she still couldn't figure out what she was going to do.

"Changning, let me ask you, how did you know there will be floods?"

This is what Helian Bao is more concerned about.
