Arrogant Consort Adored By War Prince

Chapter 451: Natural disasters and man-made disasters (2)

No wonder Yu Zisu thinks this way. As long as he is a person, he will have ambitions.

Not to mention that the Empress Dowager was a woman who went out of the palace, and with the precedent that the woman Yu Zisu was in power, it was not surprising that the Empress Dowager wanted to be in politics.

As for age... In the face of ambition, age has never been a problem.

Yu Zisu thought for a while, and responded with kindness: "Okay."

On both sides of the Yangtze and Huaihe River, the 100-year-old ancient bridge that traverses the two sides of the Yangtze River collapsed!

"Boom!"

The dull sound was more shocking than the thunder in the rain. The ethereal woman, who had already stepped on the bluestone of the bridge, was pulled hard by the swift maid behind her, and she narrowly avoided falling.

"God! Miss! You step back a little bit!" Alan thought that Linglong was still standing blankly, hurriedly pulling the person back.

The flying debris was not the source of her terror, but rather the surging rivers that became more and more fierce, like the beasts released from the cage, terrifying and terrifying.

"Wow!"

"boom……"

Soon after Alan's words fell, two more voices sounded, like the sound of a galloping army, which made people trembling at the same time, but at the same time they couldn't figure out the source of this voice.

It was like the sound of overwhelming mountains, with a powerful force of thunder, it was more ferocious and terrifying than the beast just now.

"Go!" Xie Linglong suddenly remembered the geography miscellaneous she had read before, as if awakened from a dream, pulling Alan back quickly.

As he retreated, he shouted to the people walking in the direction of the ancient bridge behind him: "Run! Run! A flash flood broke out! Everyone, run behind!"

She once saw the description of mountain torrents in the book, "like a thousand feet, falling down in a flash, crossing the valley, jumping and jumping, not like a thousand horses."

She didn't know how long it would take the screaming water to reach where they were, or how huge and terrifying it was.

She only remembered that both sides of the Jianghuai River were at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, and the river in front of her originated from the valley of Qingcheng Mountain. She didn't dare to bet!

Xie Linglong was worried about everyone's lives and shouted at them regardless of manners.

But I don't know that those people would rather point to the collapsed bridge, talk a lot, and don't want to listen to her advice, and quickly stay away from this place of right and wrong.

Alan, who was behind her, saw him and followed Xie Linglong and shouted: "Don't look, everyone! Hurry up and leave! It's dangerous here! Flash floods have broken out!"

A middle-aged aunt who was holding an umbrella was talking to others about why the old bridge suddenly collapsed. The middle-aged aunt who talked with gusto rolled her eyes at Xie Linglong and Alan.

She shouted bitterly: "Two little girls, you are from a big family, right? Don't think about it. We are far from Qingcheng Mountain on both sides of the Jianghuai River. How can there be mountain torrents!"

Xu is because it has been so long since Lie Linglong and Alan roared, and there is no need for any flood to happen, so many people around him echoed this aunt's words.

"That's it, how can there be flash floods!"

"When the bridge collapses, it's already very bad. These two people are still talking here, it's really shameless!"

"How can there be mountain torrents so far from Qingcheng Mountain?"

"Jianghuai has never seen a flash flood!"

Xie Linglong was not good at arguing with others, watching everyone turn a blind eye to her advice, and her sensitive facial features had accurately told her that the roaring currents were getting closer and closer to them.

"No! That's not the case!" She listened to the crowd scolding her and Alan from the mountain torrents. Just now, she wanted to save people's heart, and it suddenly cooled down. She pulled Alan and ran outside.

How could she always forget that in this world, not everyone is Qu Huiyuan and Alan, who would unconditionally believe what she said.

"boom!"

Soon after Xie Linglong took Alan away, the roar of the flood that was clearly visible suddenly reached everyone's ears.

All the senses of hearing are amplified, all the senses of touch are slowed, all the senses of smell are deepened, and they can clearly know a message: the flash flood has erupted!

In the narrow river channel, the flood water up to the sky is as high as several feet, roaring and rushing from a distance, rushing violently, as if to die with everyone!

"Oh my God! Run!"

"Run! It's really a flash flood!"

The people who were still dissatisfied with Xie Linglong and Alan just now are all weakened and their legs are shaking constantly.

Seeing the huge wave of water getting closer and closer to everyone, the fear in my heart spread endlessly, and despair on the verge of death surged into my heart.

run! There is only one thought in everyone's mind! He hit his weak legs hard and ran to the place where the two people left.

"what!"

Just now, the middle-aged aunt at the far end was caught in the river by spray because she couldn't avoid it, and there was no trace.

"Boom..."

A dull voice sounded, and the old bridge, which could have seen the wreckage, disappeared into the boundless river in a moment.

At the same time, a lot of howls, exclamations, and screams were swallowed by the cruel water.

In late July of the 53rd year of Jingguo Dali, that was a period of time that the people of Jianghuai would not want to think about in their entire lives.

The sudden floods broke the tranquility and gentleness of this rich water village, and also broke their illusion that they could escape dehydration with sophisticated water conservancy design.

The ancient bridges on both sides of the Jianghuai River collapsed and floods broke out, giving these Jianghuai people who were immersed in Gentle Township a head!

And those businessmen were awakened from their sleep, and after a daze, there was endless depression, and the sky would never be better than Jianghuai!

The waterways of Jianghuai Shangshang were affected by the rising flood, and all the branch roads were filled, and the south, east, north and west were not visible at all.

Even if the ancient bridge connecting the north and south of the Jianghuai River was destroyed, even a stone bridge that connected an important commercial route from the south to the north collapsed in the flood.

According to government statistics, hundreds of people died in this flood, which casts a shadow over the rainy season that has lasted for days.

Qu Ziru was pushed by Jiang Nansheng and Zhang Liang to ask about Xie Linglong's situation at the time, but found that Xie Linglong's fever was not going away.

Alan solved Linglong alone, a stupid mother, guarding not to leave, even calling a doctor.

"I'll go and find a doctor for help." Qu Ziru saw it, and didn't know why, and felt a little flustered in his heart, and he blurted out immediately if he could help.

"Ah, that would be great! Thank you Lord Qu!" At first, Alan learned that he was willing to help but hadn't reflected it. When she found out that Qu Ziru was not a fraud, she hurriedly thanked her.

Qu Ziru hurriedly said "no need" and left for the market place.

"Something happened to Jianghuai?" Even if the Empress Dowager prevents Yu Zisu from interfering in political affairs in the palace, as Yu Zisu said, those important times will still pass to her.

No, Jiang Wei's memorial was delivered to Yu Zisu by Jiang Wei himself.

Yu Zisu was a little uncertain about what Jiang Wei meant. After all, Jianghuai had a Jiang Li, but the current situation did not allow her to think too much.

She said solemnly: "More than a hundred people died, not counted as the suburbs of Jianghuai? How did Jiang Li arrange it! Didn't this palace say that the people must be arranged to stay away from the flowing water of the river! Are they away from the flowing water of the river?

When Jiang Wei heard that Yu Zisu didn't want to hide his relationship with Jiang Li, but he separated him from Jiang Li, he felt a little uneasy.

He hurriedly said: "It's the people who saw the ancient bridge in Jianghuai collapse, one or two were curious, and the result was..."

"Have you found the reason why the ancient bridge collapsed?"

Yu Zisu sneered. Seeing that Jiang Wei couldn't answer, Yu Zisu sneered and said: "This matter, Mr. Jiang, don't care about it. After all, Jiang Li is a relative of Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang should avoid it. "

The evil in Jiang Wei's heart became clearer, and I wonder if it is worthwhile for him to enter the palace today to see Yu Zisu at the risk of offending the empress dowager.

"Niang Niang, old minister..." Jiang Wei looked ashamed, his old face flushed, and said: "It's Jiang Li that really didn't do a good job. The old minister is ashamed. Even if the Niang Niang deals with the law, the Jiang family has no complaints!"

"Master Jiang doesn't need to be like this. My palace knows that this matter has nothing to do with Master Jiang." Yu Zisu's eyes deepened after hearing Jiang Wei's words.

"The old minister, just retire first." Jiang Wei sighed.

Yu Zisu didn't say much, but called Su Nuo and said, "Is the news from Jianghuai?"

Jiang Wei came into the palace today, apparently he was blaming himself for Jiang Li's failure to cause Jianghuai's accident, but she didn't think it was that simple.

Yu Zisu will never forget that when she sent Jing Zhen to Jianghuai as an imperial envoy, Jiang Wei was the first person to oppose it.

Jiang Wei asked her to deal with Jiang Li according to the law...

Jiang Li just committed the crime of negligence. He was reduced by one grade according to the law officer, and the reduction was worse than the previous position. So, would it not be good for the Jiang family and Jiang Wei?

"Niangniang, here it is." Su Nuo said, "On July 26, the Mandarin Duck Bridge on the north and south banks of the Jianghuai River was washed down by the current, and then a mountain torrent occurred..."

"It is worth mentioning that Miss Xie is also among the people experiencing these flash floods. Originally, Miss Xie asked everyone to leave quickly, but no one believed it, which led to this tragedy..."

"Princess Jingzhen is already arranging the families of the victims with Jianghuai officials, and once again sent people out to warn the people not to go to the waterway..."

"The previous rumors had almost subsided, but this time something happened..."

Yu Zisu understood Su Nuo's unfinished words, and said: "This is nothing, it was originally used for Jing Zhen to exercise. In other words, everything is normal in Jianghuai?"

"It's not all, Jianghuai's wealthy businessmen have been very anxious in recent days. It seems that this incident has affected their way of doing business." Su Nuo said: "Will Jiang Wei's purpose be related to these businessmen?"
