The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent
Chapter 950: Trapping Them and Draining the Water
When Du Ziheng thought of the various life scenes in Duti Valley in the past, his brows could not help but frown. Du Guier and the third elder treated him very badly. He didn't understand how he had offended them?
If there was any offense against Du Guier, it was only that he did not always follow Du Guier's wishes.
"Du Ziheng, what's wrong with you?" The careful Yun Mujiu was the first to notice Du Ziheng's subtle expression.
"I'm fine." Du Ziheng quickly cheered up and replied, "Princess, I just remembered my life in Duti Valley."
Yun Mujiu raised his eyebrows and could guess what Du Ziheng was thinking. Wei Bai, Zeng Guanjia and others also knew Du Ziheng well, so they could naturally guess what Du Ziheng was thinking, and they all cast a caring look at him.
Yun Mujiu said to Du Zihengheng: "I understand your feelings, but you don't have to be too emotional about the current situation."
"First, justice is in the hearts of the people. Your innocence will eventually come to light."
"Secondly, as for those who have bullied you and wronged you, they will also be punished accordingly."
When Du Ziheng heard Yun Mujiu's heartwarming words of comfort, and thought of the help and guidance that the prince and princess had given him over the past few days, a refreshing smile appeared on his face. "I understand. Thank you, princess, for your guidance."
Yun Mujiu and the others smiled faintly. They were all from the Night Prince's Mansion, so they naturally cared about each other. The Night Prince's Mansion was not as cold and indifferent as other palaces. In this palace, they were like family and friends. Most of the time, there were not so many strict distinctions between status and inferiority, and there were not so many so-called distant relationships between masters and servants.
Yun Mujiu added, “When the prince comes back, those people from Duti Valley and those from Beihan Country will also set off again and will arrive in the capital in a few days.”
After listening to Yun Mujiu's words, everyone became quite interested in the major events that would happen in the capital city next.
According to normal time calculation, the two groups of people should have arrived in the capital. However, when people from the Night Palace were dispatched, they were naturally stopped and their itinerary was delayed.
However, the two groups of people themselves did not know that they were intercepted intentionally. They thought they had encountered some accidents, so they could not continue on their journey so quickly.
Whether it was the people from Duti Valley or the two teams from Beihan, one was the Beihan Divine Doctor team related to Divine Doctor Wu, and the other was the envoy team led by Beihan Grand Princess Bei Manji, these people should have arrived in the northwest and northeast areas of the capital.
However, Ye Xiaohan didn't want them to arrive so soon, so some artificial "changes" occurred in the area where these people were temporarily staying.
The drought crisis in the Zhongyue Dynasty this year was quite serious, and of course Ye Xiaohan also asked the officials below to make corresponding preparations. So on the way to these Duti Valley and Beihan people, Ye Xiaohan ordered his subordinates in the corresponding areas to make some preparations.
He had made arrangements in advance and specifically ordered his subordinates to open the sluice gates to release water, so as to provide water to the drought-stricken areas, irrigate crops, and provide water for the people's daily lives.
Long before the arrival of summer, Ye Xiaohan had some local officials prepare for this water, and irrigation facilities such as ditches and ponds were built in advance. Now, water is being drawn out from reservoirs, ditches, ponds and other water conservancy facilities.
The flood began to spread, and the fields downstream would naturally be affected. But Ye Xiaohan had Wei Bai buy the fields early, so even if the gates were opened to release the flood, it would not harm the interests of the people. On the contrary, the water released would bring some help to the people in those areas in need.
On the one hand, drainage and water diversion means that some areas will definitely be affected, and people in some areas may not be able to go out for the time being and may be trapped there.
Secondly, people’s travel methods will also be affected accordingly. Some water routes will be blocked, and some land routes will also be inaccessible.
Therefore, once there were delays in these two aspects, the journey of Dutigu and Beihan's people naturally slowed down a lot, or even stopped on the spot.
The Emperor, the Empress and even people from other factions wanted to track down these people, but they were secretly intercepted by the people from the Night Palace and misled into looking in the wrong direction.
Yun Mujiu estimated the time and finally said, "In the next few days, a new group of people will arrive in the capital. By then, the city will definitely be even more lively than it is now."
She took a sip of tea, and her gaze fell on the secret guard in front of her, silently asking with her eyes if there was anything else she wanted to say.
After Yingliu finished talking about the recent situation of Du Houpu and Du Guier, he suddenly mentioned another topic.
"Princess, I have met Master Jiang again."
"Yingliu, you didn't almost take someone's life this time, did you?" She remembered that last time Yingliu mistook Jiang Fei for someone else and almost killed Jiang Fei with a knife.
"Princess, I was careful this time and did not attack Young Master Jiang." Ying Liu replied seriously, then frowned, "But I had a few words with Young Master Jiang and learned some news from him."
Yun Mujiu became interested and asked, "What new information did you get from him?" She remembered the episode when Ying Liu and Jiang Fei met by chance last time. These two people, one is a secret guard and the other is a businessman, unexpectedly both of them have a gossipy heart. When the two of them got together, they even started to make some guesses about the relationship between men and women.
And the key point is that they were speculating on Du Guier's intention of staying in the capital with the intention of considering their own relationship with Ye Xiaohan.
Yingliu did not keep anyone in suspense and quickly told everyone what he had learned.
After he got the news from the villa and was about to climb over the wall to leave, he remembered the last time he met Jiang Fei in the corner at the foot of the wall.
Sure enough, not long after I walked over, I met the person hiding in the corner.
He started chatting with Jiang Fei, and both of them shared the information they knew with each other, which was an information exchange.
After such communication, both sides knew the same information, and no one missed anything. After all, the Night Prince's Mansion had always sent guards to monitor the situation in the other courtyard, and the Seventh Prince also had spies to monitor the situation in the other courtyard.
During the communication with Jiang Fei, Ying Liu learned some new information...
