After I traveled through the book, my sister kidnapped my mother

Chapter 264 I Just Don’t Want Her to Face Those Dangers Alone

"Report--" The next day, Wen Zhimiao was still asleep when Shi Wanyue in Nanshao City had received three urgent reports in succession.

The damage caused by this heavy rain was much more serious than they had expected.

"The levee outside Dongyuan City was washed away last night, and heavy rain caused mudslides in many places, causing heavy casualties."

"The relief food and fodder were robbed by surrounding bandits, and more than half of the escorting soldiers were killed or injured."

"The disease is beginning to spread and get worse."

Every urgent report seemed to make the sharp sword hanging above Shi Wanyue's head fall down a little.

Shi Wanyue sat in the seat that should have belonged to Wen Zhimiao, looking extremely helpless.

The young leader finally lost his temper and flew into a rage.

Wen Rongxue came despite her illness and forcefully removed Shi Wanyue's power. She personally presided over the disaster relief work, but she was too ill, so she had to call Wen Ke back.

At this time, the person actually responsible for the disaster relief was still sleeping soundly in a brothel outside Nanshao City.

Shi Wanyue was controlled by Prince Shun's men in Prince Shun's mansion and was not allowed to enter or leave at will.

Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu were also trapped in the mansion.

The heavy rain outside was still going on, and the dark sky seemed to have been pierced by someone.

In the past, they had only heard in Yunjing City that there were heavy rains and frequent floods in the south every year, but at that time they had only read about it in books and had never experienced it so closely.

Now they could not even be said to be there in person. After all, in Nanshao City, neither Shi Wanyue, Qi Linglang nor Zheng Shu had ever seen what the pouring mudslide looked like.

Naturally, he could not feel the suffering of the people.

But even so, their mood was extremely heavy. The three of them sat in Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu's room, watching the incessant heavy rain outside the window.

"I don't like the south. It rains a lot, it's wet everywhere, and disasters are prone to happen." Zheng Shu sighed.

Qi Linglang smiled bitterly and said, "But there will be droughts in the north as well."

Zheng Shu puffed up his cheeks and finally sighed: "Wanyue, are those people really hopeless?"

Shi Wanyue lowered her eyes and said, "We have tried our best to relocate those who can be relocated in advance, including those people that Su Jincheng wanted to abandon, and the places where you predicted that flash floods might occur nearby. As for other unexpected disasters, we are really powerless."

The private soldiers under Duan Jiling's control, the soldiers that Wen Zhimiao could mobilize, and the people that the Supervisory Office could mobilize all took action in the past few days.

It is definitely impossible to save everyone. Even in some expected places, there is not enough time to evacuate the victims. After all, human resources are limited and it is impossible to take care of everything.

Zheng Shu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

Shi Wanyue's expression remained solemn: "This year's disaster is more serious than in previous years."

She sighed quietly: "But the Su family, the Wen family, and the Duan family all want to take this opportunity to achieve their own goals."

Zheng Shu didn’t quite understand all this, she just thought Shi Wanyue and Wen Zhimiao were already very powerful.

"Wan Yue."

Hearing her calling her, Shi Wanyue looked at Zheng Shu with a smile. Zheng Shu was the youngest among them except Wen Zhimiao.

At the same time, she has the simplest mind and the most introverted personality, so her friends are the most protective of her and always treat her as a younger sister, even Wen Zhimiao is the same.

"You and Miaomiao have done very well." Zheng Shu looked at Shi Wanyue and comforted her softly: "So don't be unhappy."

Shi Wanyue couldn't help laughing when she heard her words.

"Shushu, I'm not silent because of this, not really." Shi Wanyue chuckled.

She knew very well that she couldn't save everyone, but she had done her best and as long as she had a clear conscience, that was enough.

Qi Linglang reached out and rubbed Zheng Shu's head: "She is worried about Miaomiao."

"What's wrong with Miaomiao?" Zheng Shu really didn't understand the twists and turns here.

"I'm not sure, I just feel a little uneasy." Shi Wanyue lowered her eyes. She couldn't say why, but she just felt uneasy.

Qi Linglang thought for a moment and asked, "So Wanyue is going to look for Miaomiao?"

Shi Wanyue pursed her lips and couldn't give an answer for a long time. She wanted to go, even if it was dangerous, at least she would share the risk.

Her reason told her that she couldn't go, because someone needed to be in charge of Nanshao City. If Wen Zhimiao could escape danger, someone would be needed to pick him up.

If she went there too, only Qi Linglang could help, but she didn't know much about the power of the Supervisory Council.

Shi Wanyue felt that leaving this matter to her would make it too difficult for her.

What's more, it is indeed difficult to sail in the heavy rain.

"Wanyue, you should believe Miaomiao." Qi Linglang looked at Master Wanyue.

Shi Wanyue smiled bitterly: "Linglang, it's not that I don't believe her, I just..."

His fingertips landed on the table with a little force: "I just don't want her to face those dangers alone."

Qi Linglang also fell silent. She probably understood.

Precisely because I understand, I can no longer advise.

"If you are really worried, then go ahead. I'm here." Qi Linglang smiled at her gently.

Shi Wanyue looked at Qi Linglang, pursed her lips slightly, and looked a little conflicted.

"Why don't you believe me?" Qi Linglang said half-jokingly.

Shi Wanyue quickly shook her head. She just felt that such a heavy burden should not be given to Qi Linglang.

"Wanyue, there's no need to think too much between us. Now you just need to think about whether you want to go find Miaomiao and whether you are sure you can land on the island."

"After all, she won't have so many soldiers guarding her this time, so it may not be so easy for her to get through." Qi Linglang said softly to Shi Wanyue.

Shi Wanyue pursed her lips and said, "Let me see if there is a boat."

It's not like she can go there whenever she wants. If no one is willing to row the boat to the island, it will be useless.

Qi Linglang nodded gently: "Okay."

Shi Wanyue called the guards, gave them a few instructions, and then sat down again.

Qi Linglang unfolded the chessboard and asked Shi Wanyue with a smile if she wanted to play the next game.

Shi Wanyue agreed with a smile.

In the evening, hearing that Wen Rongxue had returned, Shi Wanyue went to look for her.

Afterwards, Shi Wanyue left Prince Shun's Mansion.

When Wen Ke returned, only Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu were left in Prince Shun's Mansion.

In Wen Ke's opinion, these two people did not pose any threat, but the fact that Shi Wanyue left was beyond Wen Ke's expectations.

She couldn't understand why Shi Wanyue wanted to look for Wen Zhimiao, and she didn't understand why Wen Rongxue agreed to let Shi Wanyue go to look for Wen Zhimiao.

Wen Ke went to Wen Rongxue to ask the reason, but Wen Rongxue just asked her calmly: "If Yuan Zhao really died in Nanshao, would you be able to bear the emperor's wrath, or would the Wen family be able to bear the emperor's wrath?"

Wen Rongxue looked at Wen Ke with a somewhat cold look in her eyes: "I don't care what kind of deal you have with the Wen family, but as long as I am alive, I will never associate with the Wen family."

She was a little emotional and couldn't help coughing.
