The princess is very versatile, leaving the prince to become the richest

Xiao Jingyi's conversation with the man was interrupted, and they both looked towards the direction where the sound came from.

They saw that this group of people were all wearing straw raincoats like them.

But the difference is that they have a knife on their waist.

Looking at their uniform steps, you can tell that they are government officials.

Before Xiao Jingyi had time to say anything, he heard the person on the other side who seemed to be their leader start to scold Xiao Jingyi and the others.

"Why are you guys so unwilling to listen?

Didn’t I tell you that the dam is in danger of being collapsed by water at any time?

If this collapses and the water comes, you won’t be able to escape even if you want to.

You are all so young, don’t value money over your life, just leave quickly, leave quickly.

You don't want your lives, but we do.

It's because of people like you who don't listen that we have to risk our lives to patrol the city.

Did you hear what I said?

If you have nowhere to go, go to Chiqing Mountain.

We have to patrol other places next, so we don't have time to waste here with you.

Xiao Qi, take them out of the city and send them to Chiqing Mountain, then come back to join us."

Xiao Qi, whose name was called, walked out of the team.

"Yes, Captain!

Xiao Qi promises to send them out of the city."

The captain of the patrol team first scolded Xiao Jingyi and his group, and then arranged for one of his men to escort them out.

Although the captain looked very irritable and started scolding Xiao Jingyi and the others.

But Xiao Jingyi and the others were not the kind of people who could not tell good from bad. They knew that the captain was trying to complete the mission and save them at the same time.

So, Xiao Jingyi asked the patrol captain in a very calm tone,

"Hello, you are their captain, right?

I am Xiao Jingyi, sent by the Emperor to deliver a letter to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi.

But looking at the situation, it seems that it is no longer necessary.

I wonder where His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi is now?"

Xiao. Xiao Jingyi?

The fifth prince of the current dynasty?

When the captain heard that the person in front of him was the fifth prince, he was so scared that his legs went weak.

Thinking about how he had just yelled at them, the captain wanted to die.

When the captain looked at Xiao Jingyi again, his eyes were full of fear.

He was also angry with these people. He advised them again and again, but they just wouldn't listen.

We are all raised by our parents. The lives of these soldiers are also lives, and every family has old and young.

If a flood really happens and people are killed or drowned, don't they have to rescue these people?

Therefore, if for no other reason than for their own safety, they must persuade them to leave before the disaster strikes.

But even if it was for his job, he scolded the prince, which is a capital crime.

“I’m sorry, I, I didn’t mean it.

I was also ordered to come and check if there was anyone else in the city.

When I saw so many of you here, I got anxious and angry."

Looking at the patrol captain with a frightened face in front of him, Xiao Jingyi smiled at him and comforted him.

"You don't have to apologize, you did great.

If you encounter someone who is disobedient, you should scold him harshly.

So, I should be the one to thank you on behalf of the court and the people.

Thank you for your hard work and saving everyone."

After Xiao Jingyi finished saying these words, the patrol captain on the opposite side breathed a sigh of relief.

The patrol captain thought that the fifth prince was really magnanimous.

If this matter fell into the hands of a narrow-minded person, he, as the captain, would be skinned alive if not killed.

“Thank you for your understanding, Fifth Prince.

I just heard you mention His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi. Are you going to look for His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi?

His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi should go with the prefect to check the situation along the river one by one.

If you want to find His Highness, I'll let Xiao Qi take you there."

Xiao Jingyi nodded in agreement.

“Okay, I do have something to see my third brother first.

Otherwise, I will stay and patrol with you.

It's so dangerous here, you should finish your patrol quickly and leave.

I'll leave a few people who can swim with you to patrol.

There is strength in numbers, and the sooner we finish, the less danger there will be for everyone.”

The patrol captain sincerely thanked Xiao Jingyi for this.

At the same time, Xiao Jingyi's image in his heart instantly became much taller.

"Thank you, Fifth Prince!"

After Xiao Jingyi glanced at the patrol captain, he turned and spoke to the people he brought with him.

“Those of you who can swim, stay and help.

When you're done, come meet me.

Captain, I won't waste your time. I'll just borrow Xiao Qi first."

After Xiao Jingyi said this, he looked at the man they had ignored.

"You, come with me later and don't make trouble here anymore."

After knowing that the person in front of him was the prince, the man was so frightened that he dared not say a word and tried hard to reduce his presence.

However, he was still named by Xiao Jingyi.

The man was afraid that he would offend Xiao Jingyi again, so he just said one sentence.

"Oh, okay, I'll go with you."

Afterwards, Xiao Jingyi led the remaining few of his men and followed Xiao Qi away.

The patrol captain watched Xiao Jingyi walk away and gave instructions to his men.

"Next, everyone will form groups of four, with two teams each patrolling in the east, south, west and north directions.

If you meet someone, give them some advice if you can.

Those who refused to listen were tied up in a row and dragged away like prisoners.

Everyone will gather at the city gate. If you encounter a flood along the way, save your life first, understand?"

After listening to the captain's instructions, the soldiers answered in unison.

"Yes, Captain."

Then they and their teammates set off in their assigned directions.

Everyone prayed in their hearts that they would not encounter floods.

Xiao Jingyi and his men followed Xiao Qi all the way to the city gate.

"Fifth Prince, should we go to Chiqing Mountain first, or go find His Royal Highness Prince Qi?"

The rain was quite heavy just now, and he was quite far away from the Fifth Prince and the captain.

So, he only knew that he was asked to send someone out of the city, but he didn't hear clearly where to go.

"Go find His Royal Highness Prince Qi."

"Okay, Your Highness, let's go this way."

The road to Chiqing Mountain and the road to find Xiao Jingyu are two completely opposite directions.

They are now at the city gate and can clearly see that the rain is significantly lighter above the road leading to Chiqing Mountain.

And above the road where we were going to find Xiao Jingyu, the rain was getting heavier.

So the further they went, the slower they walked and the more languid their steps became.

Finally, with their efforts, they arrived at the dam.

Xiao Jingyi wiped his face and saw many black spots in the distance.

They tried to get closer, and Xiao Jingyi found a figure among them who looked very familiar.

It’s the third brother!!

Finally meeting his third brother, Xiao Jingyi was as excited as a child.

He quickened his pace and walked towards Xiao Jingyu.

The closer he got, the clearer he could see.
