Chapter 50: Sand Sculpture Mermaid Twenty Four

Shi Yun did not leave any bones, only two relics, and the relics were placed in the seventh-level buddha by Shi Hui and enshrined.
Su Luoyan had agreed that Shi Yun would stay in Chenxiang Temple for a month, so he and Hua Diewu continued to stay in Chenxiang Temple. Gongsun Zhi left Chenxiang Temple with his maid and returned to his uncle and aunt's house.
Although Xuanyuanlie is not in Yong'an City now, he sent someone to Uncle Gongsun Zhi's house to propose marriage the day he left. Gongsun Zhi’s uncle said that Gongsun Zhi and Gu’s son had a marriage contract, but the talents on Xuanyuanlie’s side would not care about this. Even if Xuanyuanlie wanted Gongsun Zhi to be a concubine, even the heavenly king would not stop him!
The marriage of Gongsun Zhi and Gu Lingyu can only be defeated. When Xuanyuanlie returned from the capital, Gongsun Zhi was about to get married. There was no news from the capital, but other places appeared one after another.
There was a severe drought in the north and the locust plague in the south for half a month. I heard that the little emperor who was seriously ill sent people to help the disaster, but the little emperor had real power and commanded nothing.
Xuanyuanlie had the ability to quell these two natural disasters, but he did nothing. For him, the most important thing was to hold power. People died when they died. Anyway, the world is so big, can this country really die?
Facts have proved that Xuanyuanlie is too arrogant. In recent years, Xuanyuanlie has indeed been in power step by step, and the royal family of Wang and Sun led a life of extravagance. However, such luxury enjoyment is obtained by squeezing the hard-earned money of the people, how could Xuanyuanlie not know? He just pretended not to know.
Under this false prosperity is deep darkness. As long as the superiors say a word, the flat-headed people can only accept their fate.
Master Shi Yun died in the flames because of Xuanyuanlie's private anger, Gongsun Zhi was about to be pushed into the fire pit of Prince Zong's mansion because of Xuanyuanlie's words.
There were more than 30 wives and concubines in Xuanyuanlie's mansion, and none of them were fuel-efficient lamps. Gongsun Zhi had no power behind him. Once he entered, the sheep would enter the tiger's mouth. Sooner or later, he would be eaten up.
Of course, not everyone will meet those dignitaries who disregard the king's law. For ordinary people, living is not easy.
It is a pity that natural disasters have come, and the officials above have not done anything, and many victims have flooded into other cities. Yong'an City is not far from the city where the locust plague is located, and it has always been rumored that everyone is rich, so the victims in Yong'an City are especially large.
The Chenxiang Temple sent people out to give porridge to the victims, and many people who almost starved to death struggled back from the brink of death. Fuhui Temple, which has a wider reputation, is not at all moving. If there are victims wandering around, there will be monks with fat brains holding broomsticks and chasing people.
I heard that there was a girl who looked like a fairy among the people who gave porridge in Chenxiang Temple. The people of Yongan City, who were not victims of the disaster, came to see it if they were curious. From this look, everyone felt that this was a fairy who had come down from heaven. Unfortunately, although this fairy was gentle and gentle, she didn't talk very much.
As the sky darkened, Su Luoyan packed the thick porcelain bowl with rice porridge, and the monks beside him were also busy. Someone not far away was holding a bowl of porridge, and when they saw Su Luoyan they were leaving, they quickly drank the porridge they had been reluctant to drink, and then hurriedly handed the bowl to Su Luoyan.
As soon as Su Luoyan wanted to reach out to take it, the bowl was taken by one hand first.
"Luo Yan, I'm here to pick you up."
"Yeah." Su Luoyan's face showed a slight smile.
There was no smile on Su Luoyan’s face when she was serving the porridge, because she was not the kind of person who did good deeds to make others thank her. In her opinion, the best thing was that she didn’t use it to help at all, because it represented No one needs her help.
The old man who returned the porridge said thank you in gratitude. Seeing that Su Luoyan and the woman who appeared suddenly had something to say, she walked far away with vision.
Hua Diewu specially'dressed up' herself to make herself look less conspicuous.
"Luoyan, are you tired?" Hua Diewu took the initiative to help Su Luoyan clean up the bowl.
Su Luoyan shook his head and said, "I'm not tired. Xiaodie, when do you think this will end."
Hua Diewu knew that Su Luoyan was worried about his father Su Linyu, who was still in his hometown of Qingshui County. If the drought and locust plague continued to be uncontrolled, sooner or later, it would spread to the edge of the South China Sea.
In fact, it has already affected the South China Sea. There are disasters in both the north and the south, and the price of food must remain high. Su Luoyan’s family had already had some difficulties eating before, but now that food prices have risen, it’s even more difficult.
Hua Diewu held Su Luoyan's hand and said very seriously: "Luoyan, don't worry, everything will get better soon."
"Xiaodie, can you do me a favor?" Su Luoyan asked.
Hua Diewu immediately patted her chest and said, "Luo Yan, what do you want me to do."
Seeing Hua Diewu's appearance as if she was about to go up to the sword and the fire, Su Luoyan couldn't help but smile, and then said: "It's not a big deal, I just want you to play a scene with me."
"Acting?" Hua Diewu looked blank.
Su Luoyan nodded, and said, "Well, follow me. I will take you to a place."
"Hmm." Hua Diewu nodded vigorously.
While serving the porridge, Su Luoyan learned a lot of things that she hadn't learned before. Since she was a child, Su Luoyan was very good at collecting information and knew how to use people's hearts, but she didn't like it. But even if she doesn't like some things, she has to do it.
Su Luoyan took Hua Diewu to a narrow and prosperous side street. On the street, a farmer pulled a heavy cart forward. The farmer and peasant woman on the road had a thin face and a strong smile on her face.
Horses can still pass by from time to time on the road. Follow Su Luoyan into the street and see people constantly loading grain and straw into the carriage. After listening to the person next to her, Hua Diewu got a general idea.
It is very close to the official road and it is very convenient to go to other towns. Today, the locust plagues in neighboring cities are precisely the time when food is scarce, and reselling food at this time could not be better.
Su Luoyan pulled Hua Diwu around to the back of the stable, and when she saw it, she was waiting for two thin girls early. Su Luoyan nodded to the two of them, explaining that they should remember what they said to Hua Diewu later. Because these two girls had received Su Luoyan's favor, they came to help Su Luoyan.
Then Su Luoyan taught Hua Diewu how to speak with herself later, Hua Diewu nodded while listening, and remembered what Su Luoyan had said in her heart.
At this time, there was the sound of footsteps in front of the stable, and Su Luoyan immediately said: "I went to deliver food to the Prince's Mansion two days ago. Guess what I saw?"
Hua Diewu held back a smile, Su Luoyan's current voice really didn't fit her slightly cold face at all. Hua Diewu rubbed her face with her hands, adjusted her expression, and said, "What did you see?"
"The swill bucket of the Prince's Mansion contains some big white rice. Look carefully, there are bird's nest and abalone. Tsk tsk, I heard that the concubines of the prince's prince are tired of eating, they are making a temper, so they just pour it in. It's in the swill bucket." Su Luoyan's acting skills are very good. If he didn't know that Su Luoyan was busy making porridge these days, Hua Diewu would really think that Su Luoyan had really been to the Prince's Mansion.
Hua Diewu cooperated with a surprised voice, "Oh my God, my concubine can do this, what about the prince himself?"
"The prince...I heard someone say it. The prince of the clan seems to have a rebellious heart, but you shouldn't say this to others."
"Shhh! How can we small people talk about this? Be careful not to drop your head!" In fact, the smile on Hua Diewu's face couldn't be stretched anymore.
Su Luoyan also played hard, "I'm not talking nonsense, I have heard..."
Su Luoyan and Hua Diewu smeared Xuanyuan Lie every word, and the couple who came to lead the horse changed their faces after hearing this.
The couple didn't want to make money with such ignorance. Originally, the refugees had no food to eat because of the natural disaster, but they took this opportunity to increase food prices. But it's not easy for anyone. They just want to make more money to buy a house in Yongan City, so that they can be more stable after having a child in the future.
Now when I heard how extravagant the people of the Prince's Mansion were, the Prince Zong held the power but ignored the victims, and their guilt all turned into dissatisfaction with Xuanyuanlie.
The dissatisfaction of one or two civilians has no effect on Xuanyuanlie, but it will be different once the number of people increases.
They all say that human words are awesome, the three of them become tigers, let alone Jacquard Diewu and Su Luoyan who say most of them are true. Hua Diewu and Su Luoyan taught the two girls to repeat this conversation here every day.
This is Liangjie, and it leads to other places, so there are so many people coming and going, and the news is easy to spread. Probably because of Hua Diewu's fox curse and Su Luoyan's power, in just two or three days, the news flew across the country like wings.
When the news reached the seventh day, the crucial turning point came when Xuanyuan Lie sat across the street in a soft sedan that was hollowed out on all sides. Xuanyuanlie's actions aroused public anger, and many people kept throwing eggs and rotten vegetable leaves on the soft sedan chair.
Xuanyuanlie frowned, feeling unhappy. Just when he was about to get angry, he was hit by a stone on his spine and he was directly paralyzed on the bed. Later, the stone-throwing person was caught, but he couldn't pry anything out of his mouth, and he didn't know if it was a coincidence or someone instigated him.
Since then, the pattern of the court has suddenly changed, and the people of the little emperor's faction have gradually become stronger. Xuanyuanlie's faction had no leader because of Xuanyuanlie's injury. Xuanyuanlie was only paralyzed, but his brain still worked. He hadn't given up on seizing power. From Xuanyuanlie's point of view, the little emperor was not afraid. After being suppressed by him for so many years, how could he easily climb onto his head?
But the younger emperor really counterattacked, taking power back in the same way, and then quickly sent people to treat drought and locust plagues, cleared the waterways to distribute locust control powder, and then opened warehouses for disaster relief to solve the survival problems of the people today. .
In fact, if these two things had been taken precautions at the beginning, they would not have developed to where they are now, but before the little emperor had power and powerlessness, while Xuanyuan Lie had power and powerlessness, this has developed to what it is now.
Su Luoyan and Hua Diewu have been in Yongan City for more than 20 days, and so many things have happened in this short period of time. After receiving the relic, Master Shi Yun passed away, the drought and locust plague broke out together, and then the little emperor regained power, and the two natural disasters gradually subsided.
Xuanyuanlie is not dead yet, but the power in his hand has been robbed. The little emperor didn't rush to kill, leaving Xuanyuanlie his life, but Xuanyuanlie no longer had the prestige of the past, and he was even a bit miserable.
Xuanyuan Lie could only lie in bed all day long. Knowing that his plan had failed, he was so angry that he couldn't even speak. Xuanyuan Lie, who was lying in bed and had to help others to eat and vent, felt that he had completely lost his self-esteem.
Such Xuanyuanlie actually wanted to welcome Gongsun Zhi into the mansion, but the people under Xuanyuanlie did not act according to Xuanyuanlie's words. As soon as the news from Xuanyuanlie came, Gongsun Zhi and Gu Lingyu quickly prepared for a marriage.
However, in two days, Gongsun Zhi and Gu Lingyu's wedding were ready. Hua Diewu and Su Luoyan went to see Gongsun Zhi and Gu Lingyu's wedding before they left Yongan City. When Hua Diewu watched them, their eyes were full of longing.
But Su Luoyan turned to look at Hua Diewu's profile, with a particularly gentle smile on her face.
"Wow!"
"Second worship Gaotang!"
"Husband and wife worship!"
Gongsun Zhi and Gu Lingyu, dressed in bright red wedding gowns, bowed to each other under everyone's gaze. Everyone present was full of smiles and blessed the pair of Bi people.
Gongsun Zhi wanted to get up, but accidentally stepped on the corner of his skirt and her body was unstable. Gu Lingyu immediately held Gongsun Zhi's hand with a nervous expression.
When Hua Diewu watched it, she thought in her heart that she wanted to give Su Luoyan a wedding that was blessed by everyone.
{System, to be honest, was the Luoyan I met the same person? }
With the same appearance and the same personality, Hua Diewu is not really stupid, she can feel it.
The system hesitated and did not dare to speak. He bit the e-cigarette and finally gave Hua Diewu an ambiguous answer.
[Well, if you think it is, it is not. 】
{Ah. }
The system felt uncomfortable, but it said nothing.
After seeing enough, Hua Diewu turned to look at Su Luoyan, and said to Su Luoyan: "Luoyan, let's go, we should go back to Qingshui County."
"Yeah." Su Luoyan nodded, and walked out of Gu's mansion with Hua Diewu.
Now there is one month before the three-month deadline, and it is time to leave Yongan City. The two returned to the Chenxiang Temple, said goodbye to the current abbot Shi Hui, and then packed up and prepared to leave tomorrow.
