But the more we walked towards Cangzhou, the more victims there were. Wei Yi suggested that Du Tingting abandon the carriage and ride a horse instead, so he rushed to the front line. Finally, five days later, he arrived at the county town closest to Cangzhou, Ze County.
As the name suggests, Guanjiang is located in the attachment of this county, so the word Ze means it is a place where water gathers, and it also means grace. The original meaning is to hope to get the blessings of the earth and harvest every year. However, now everyone thinks that this word is too unlucky to use as a place name. It is not that there is too much water, but it is too much, and the crops are all flooded, and I can't even pass the winter this year!
According to the news from Wei Yi that he received from the Prime Minister, Yao Xinyi and others worked here to atone for their sins. As for Cangzhou City, it has been flooded and the water has not yet retreated!
When Du Tingting appeared in front of Yao Xinyi, Yao Xinyi and his colleagues were straightened, and some rubbed their eyes unbelievably, wondering if they were too tired these days and were blindfolded.
Du Tingting, who came to Ze County under the leadership of Wei Yi, was clean and clean. Her hair was simply combed with a ponytail on the back of her head, and she also wore a set of moon-white narrow-sleeved men's clothing. She did not deliberately hide her identity as a woman, but at first glance she felt an indescribable sense of elegance, especially in this grey place, which seemed to be independent.
Yao Xinyi shook his head, rubbed his eyes with his big finger and index finger, and saw Du Tingting still standing in front of him, he shouted hesitantly: Tingting?
Du Tingting looked at him pityfully and said softly: Husband is suffering.
How come you are here!?Confirm that he hadn't dreamed anymore, Yao Xinyi asked loudly in surprise.
I was really worried when I knew something was wrong with my husband, and my family was also worried, so I was willful and asked my father to send someone to escort me over, begging me not to be angry. I really couldn't eat or sleep, and I didn't dare to think about the situation on my husband's side. I just wanted to see you with my own eyes and make sure you were fine.As Du Tingting said, tears were already filled with their eyes, but they were forced to be strong. She looked at Yao Xinyi deeply and tried hard not to let the tears flow, as if she wanted to convey her heart completely to him.
Du Tingting felt very sad because Yao Xinyi and everyone around her were all depressed. Everyone described her as thin, bearded, black and blue under her eyes, and yellow face. This was obviously something was wrong with her body!
These people looked even more pity than the victims she encountered along the way when she came... Du Tingting's remarks shocked everyone. A man even suddenly burst into tears and shouted the names of his parents, wife and children in a random way... Yao Xinyi's heart seemed to be hit hard by some heavy object. He couldn't help but reach out to hold his chest. His heart beat thumping as if to rush out of his chest. In an instant, he felt something collapsed and a mess... He reached out to stroke Du Tingting's snow-white face, but when he was about to touch it, he suddenly stopped again.
He raised his head, not wanting to let tears flow out, but his tears seemed to be lifted, flowing out along the corners of his eyes, drawing a trace of the dirt on his face. He simply carried it over his body, not wanting Du Tingting to see him crying.
Wei Yi, who was hiding aside, felt a little disappointed in his heart. Her lady was really getting farther and farther away from him... Okay, take your wife to settle down first, and then come over.Yuan Chen, the Minister of Works, came over and patted Yao Xinyi on the shoulder.
Have met an adult.Du Tingting bowed and saluted.
Madam, you are polite. I am now guilty, so there is no need to be too polite. Let’s go and settle it first.Yuan Chen said with a gentle voice.
Yuan Chen's voice was soft, and Du Tingting looked Yuan Chen's eyes curiously. His face was as dirty as everyone else, but even in this situation, his body still exuded a gentle temperament, making people feel like spring breeze. It's really amazing!
Tingting, have you suffered along the way?After going back to the room to wash, Yao Xinyi said with distress, "You have lost all your weight."
My husband suffered and lost weight, but he was fine.Du Tingting said with both heartache and gladness, but she silently complained in her heart that your family’s best is hungry for so many days, and then she came to see you from afar. It would be strange if she was not thin!
Tingting, you... Yao Xinyi wanted to say something, but he couldn't help but choked up.
Husband, I came here this time to find out the situation in detail and see if there is any way to make things develop in a good direction and to get innocent people out of sin.Du Tingting said seriously.
Yao Xinyi smiled bitterly. This is not such a simple thing. Ah, he suddenly became clever: But what news is there for my father-in-law!?
Du Tingting shook her head, "My father is so far away from here, there is no news, but my father told me that someone secretly reported to the censor, saying that when the embankment was built, someone in the Ministry of Works was suspected of corruption and fraud. The emperor was furious. The censor said that the greed for money was impossible for the people who came to Cangzhou to supervise the worker at that time. It must be that everyone colluded, so the emperor was furious and said that they would be killed all... But my father suggested that he be punished and made meritorious service, so the matter became like this.
Building this embankment was the first task I had to participate in the construction when I came to the Ministry of Works. I was a slight person at that time, but Mr. Yuan was an adjutant. After the accident, I talked to him alone. He could say with certainty that this embankment really did not cut corners, because he could not be careless about these things that concern human life.
