Cui Ning looked for Cui Jili with a serious expression.
"Xiao Fan said that there will be a flood in Lantian?”Cui Jili frowned.
If this explanation made sense, then he could roughly understand why Xiao Fan had been desperately stockpiling grain these days.
"But that's not right. The Imperial Astronomical Supervisor has already predicted the outcome. How could Xiao Fan know? Is he more powerful than the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor?"
Cui Ning shook her head to show that she didn't know, but she still said with certainty,""Father, I think Xiao Fan is very serious. He shouldn't be lying. Should we..."
Cui Jili waved his hand." It's fine. There are about a few thousand stones of food in the house. No matter how big the flood is, this food is enough to feed the family for ten days."”
Cui Ning felt uneasy. She finally felt that Xiao Fan would not shoot without thinking.
However, the rules of the great clans were very strict. The head of the clan had the power to make decisions on his own, and no one was allowed to doubt his judgment.
……
On the official road in the outskirts of Lantian, a line of carriages was moving forward against the rain.
The curtain of the carriage was pulled open, revealing a young girl.
The young girl had bright eyes, white teeth, and jade-like skin. There was a saying in the Tang Dynasty that she was born beautiful and could not be abandoned. Bai Letian probably only described Yang Yuhuan like this after seeing Li Lizhi's portrait.
Chang Le looked at the curtain of rain in the sky, his willow-like curved brows furrowed into a river, looking very worried.
Today, she set off from Chang 'an. As soon as she arrived at the outskirts of Lantian, it began to rain.
A few days ago, Lantian had been washed away by a rainstorm, which had caused quite a lot of disasters.
He could only hope that the rain would not last for too long.
"Qing Nv, have the invitations for the banquet been properly arranged?”
Chang Le asked the maidservant beside him.
"Princess, don't worry. All the official positions in Lantian have been written in.”
Chang Le nodded." This time, Imperial Father asked me to come and sympathize with the officials in the disaster area. At the same time, he also asked me to organize the post-disaster measures to achieve the effect of preventing the root of the problem.”
"The disaster relief measures are all dependent on the Lantian officials. They work hard for the Great Tang and cannot be neglected.”
"Princess, don't worry. There won't be any mistakes." Qing Nv smiled.”
Chang Le opened the curtain again and said to the young man riding a horse,""Brother Chong, you've worked hard on this journey. Let's have a good rest when we reach Lantian.”
Zhangsun Chong nodded. The greed in his eyes was perfectly concealed.
"Little sister Chang Le, why are you being so polite with me?" he asked. Father asked me to come along this time to be your assistant.”
"Thank you, Brother Chong." Changle said politely."We still need to rely on Brother Chong for the trip to Lantian."”
"It's my honor."
The carriage continued to move forward without a word. They arrived outside Lantian County in the evening.
The rain seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, with no intention of stopping.
The water level of the moat gradually began to rise.
Chang Le's worries grew heavier.
Before she left, her father had told her that Lantian County had predicted that there would be a large-scale flood in Lantian.
Listening to his father's tone, he seemed to believe it, but he also seemed to not.
His father had told him before that if he was really prophesied, he could ask Xiao County Nan for help when he was in trouble.
He could only hope that his father's worries would not come true.
……
In the Xiao Manor.
Han Lingying was wearing an imperial robe and holding an umbrella, walking back and forth in the backyard and front yard.
She was deeply afraid that Fifth Uncle Xiao and the others would not be able to see or know that she was now an imperial madam.
If it wasn't for the torrential rain, he would have worn the imperial robe and walked out of the Xiao manor to show off.
"Wifey, take it easy. If you wet the imperial robe, how will you wear it in the future?”
Han Lingying rolled her eyes at Xiao Fan.”
"Alright, alright, wear it. I'll ask His Majesty for another set tomorrow so that you can change and wear it.”
Pfft-
Han Lingying covered her mouth and laughed." Who do you think His Majesty is? Do you think you can just give him the imperial robe whenever you want?"”
"Oh right, husband, what did you do? Why would His Majesty give such a generous reward?”
Xiao Fan spread his hands and said,"I don't know!"”
As the two of them chatted, the rain became heavier and heavier.
Looking at the heavy rain, Han Lingying seemed to be thinking about something.
At this moment, Xiao Fan was also staring at the sky in a daze.
After a long time, Xiao Fan sighed.
What a sin!
How should he deal with his relationship with Cui Ning?
Han Lingying saw Xiao Fan sigh and said,"Husband, why are you sighing? It's really starting to rain!"”
Xiao Fan looked at his wife and gathered his thoughts. If the Tang Book was not wrong, this was only the beginning.
The disaster in Lantian this time was too serious. The rainstorm lasted for nearly a month.
The entire Lantian was a dead city. The people inside couldn't leave, and the people outside couldn't enter.
Even if they wanted to provide disaster relief, they didn't know where to start.
"Yes, it has started to rain, and it will continue for a long time.”
"Our family has almost two hundred thousand dan of grain.”
"Just you wait. Someone will come to us for help, but I won't give away this grain for free!”
As they spoke, Fifth Uncle Xiao walked over with an invitation.
"Ah Lang, Princess Changle's invitation to the banquet invites us to the county government tomorrow.”
The current Fifth Uncle Xiao walked like a tiger. When he went out to buy things, he was full of energy.
He didn't even say 'I'm the steward of Xiao Dunyong's Cavalry Wei's family'.
This family, each one loved to show off more than the other!
