After the divorce, I became the Lord of the Six Houses

After Xiao Ningping returned to Hejiazhuangzi, she was about to get a pen and paper to write a letter to Su Jingyan, telling her how shocked she was when she saw the sea today.

When the writing started, He Yu's address was also changed to brother-in-law.

After Xiao Ningping finished writing the letter, he packed it up and ordered Azan to find a courier in the city to post it.

……

When Su Jingyan received Xiao Ningping's letter in Luoyang, it was seven or eight days later, and the letter from Yinzhou usually did not arrive so quickly.

It happened that the magistrate of Yinzhou City was paying tribute to seafood, and by the way, the letter from Yinzhou was sent to Luoyang City in a hurry.

Xiao Yi moved behind Su Jingyan and looked at the channel written by Xiao Ningping: "What did Ningping write to you?"

Su Jingyan read it slowly, "Dad, Mom, Pingping misses you so much, but it's so much fun outside, so it will take some time for Pingping to come back. Don't miss me too much."

Xiao Yi heard this and said: "No one misses her."

Su Jingyan glared at Xiao Yi, and continued: "I had a great time in Hangzhou, and my brother-in-law even took me to Yinzhou to play. This is my first time..."

Su Jingyan felt something was wrong after reading this, "Brother-in-law?"

Xiao Yi said: "Could it be a typo? She's only been writing for a while?"

"No matter if there is a clerical error, it will not be possible to write sister as brother-in-law."

Su Jingyan continued to read, "This is the first time I saw the sea, the sea is too big, bigger than the imperial palace, and you can't see the end at all. At first, my sister and I thought it was a big lake, but my brother-in-law said it was the sea.

My brother-in-law also said that he would take me to catch oranges and sea crabs. I love the sea so much. My brother-in-law also picked up a big conch for me. There is the sound of the tide in the big conch.

If there is a chance in the future, Pingping will take his parents to the beach to play together. "

Xiao Yi said: "You really have a brother-in-law, why haven't you told us every year?"

Su Jingyan was slightly worried: "I don't know who this brother-in-law is?"

As a parent, even if her daughter is His Royal Highness the Empress Dowager, Su Jingyan is afraid that her daughter will be treated inhumanly.

Coincidentally, a letter from Xiao Ningle followed, and a conch came along with the letter.

Su Jingyan opened the letter and looked at the letter written by Xiao Ningle, which was similar to the letter written by Pingping, except that the rest of the letters every year seemed to deliberately hide the existence of a person.

Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Ningle's channel from behind Su Jingyan: "I'm afraid Niannian deliberately hid the matter from our brother-in-law Pingping, Pingping said that brother-in-law took them there, but Niannian said she took Pingping to Yinzhou. "

Su Jingyan pointed to one of the sentences: "He Yu said that there is the sound of the sea in the conch. My parents have never seen the sea, so my daughter sent the conch first, so that my parents can hear the sound of the sea."

Su Jingyan looked at He Yu and said, "Is this He Yu the brother-in-law that Pingping said?"

Xiao Yi said: "He Yu? This name is so familiar."

Su Jing said: "Baoning's younger brother is a good brother to Zhen'er. We all met him when he was young. He was pretty when he was young, but I don't know what he looks like now."

Xiao Yi said: "So it was him."

Su Jingyan frowned and said, "Pingping called her brother-in-law in the letter, so why don't you tell us about such an important person every year?"

Su Jingyan is not a mother who likes to control her children's lives, but her daughter has grown up, and she doesn't want to tell her what's on her mind, so she is inevitably a little lonely.

Xiao Yi patted Su Jingyan on the shoulder and said, "Perhaps it's because every year he felt that the time hadn't come and he didn't have a deep relationship, so he didn't tell us. If you are really worried, you can write a letter to find out."

Su Jing said: "No need, every year will tell us when he is willing to tell us."

……

After staying at the seaside of Yinzhou for seven full days, Xiao Ningle and Ningping had a great time, they were supposed to go back, but unexpectedly the fishermen said that a hurricane was coming, so they had to be trapped in Hejiazhuang.

This is the first time Xiao Ningle has seen such a strong wind, Luoyang also has strong winds, showers, thunder and thunder in summer, but it is not as frightening as here.

Fortunately, Zhuangzi was on a mountain island, and even the window lattices were blown to pieces several times. Fortunately, there were wooden boards binding it long ago. Looking out from the wooden boards, it can be said that a stormy sea was set off.

Xiao Ningping was so frightened that she didn't dare to sleep alone, even if she was accompanied by a palace maid, she didn't feel at ease, so she nestled in Xiao Ningle's arms at dusk.

Xiao Ningle said to He Yu: "I will be with Ning Ping tonight, you should find another place to sleep."

But He Yu said: "I'll just rest on the couch. It's the first time you've seen such a severe hurricane, you will definitely be afraid. What's more, when the hurricane passes tomorrow, many people will come to take refuge in the village."

Xiao Ning was puzzled and said: "Come take refuge in Zhuangzi? Didn't you say that the hurricane can pass in a day?"

He Yu nodded and said: "It is true that the hurricane will pass in a day, but often after such a violent storm, the city will be flooded, and the people in the depression will come to the mountain to take refuge temporarily. The people came up to take refuge, the hurricane came in a hurry, they can't come up tonight, but they will come up tomorrow."

Xiao Ningle looked out of the window worriedly and said: "In the past, I often received memorials from the south of the Five Ridges saying how many people were killed and injured by the hurricane, and how many victims there were. Only when I come here today can I know how hard it is for the people at the seaside."

Xiao Ningle, who grew up in the Central Plains, really felt the hardships of the people in Linhai.

He Yu said: "This hurricane happens every year, and if it is properly prevented, there are not many casualties."

There was a strong wind outside, and the sky was getting darker. There was a bang, and Xiao Ningping cried out in fright. Xiao Ningping, who had always been fearless, listened to the whistling wind and said with a sob: "Sister, we will die!" Is it? Pingping is so scary!"

The voice of the dark guard came from the door and said: "Your Highness, a big camphor tree was blown by the hurricane, there is no other serious problem."

Xiao Ningle said to the outside: "You don't have to guard outside, just hide."

"Yes."

Little Ningping had seen how big the camphor tree outside was, and seeing that even the big tree had collapsed, he cried louder and louder. Xiao Ning was happy to care about the people of Yinzhou. Hearing Ningping crying loudly, he said slightly angrily:

"Don't cry, at least you have your sister to protect you. Those fishermen who go fishing, the families of fishermen who live in thatched huts on the shore, and the people who are always worried about floods in the depressions, you are better than them Much more."

He Yu looked at Xiao Ningle's side face through the candlelight, listened to her words and smiled slightly: "Your Highness has such thoughts, and it is also a blessing for the people."

The strong wind blew through the night, and almost all the people in Yinzhou City did not fall asleep. In the morning, the wind and rain had subsided, Xiao Ningle put Xiao Ningping, who was already asleep in his arms, and went out with He Yu.

Seeing the mess in the courtyard outside, the leaves and branches fell to the ground, and many trees were uprooted.

Xiao Ningle was a little worried that the mountain road was difficult and the people could not come up, so he ordered the guards to open up the mountain road, "An An, protect Pingping, He Yu, let's go down the mountain to find the prefect of Yinzhou!"

He Yu followed behind Xiao Ningle. After going down the mountain, the village was still flooded a lot. Some people had already boarded the boat, and many people were swimming in the muddy water.

The farther you go to Yinzhou City, the more places will be flooded, and some people hold their children's belongings on their heads and walk to the high ground resignedly, their eyes are empty and they are resigned to their fate.

All this shocked Xiao Ningle who was on the small boat. It was only a small number of thousands of people who were affected by the disaster in the memorial. The household department allocated ten thousand taels of silver for disaster relief. Seeing this scene, Xiao Ningle knew the disaster How difficult it is for the people.

When we arrived at the Yamen of the prefect of Yinzhou, the place was not flooded. Many people gathered outside the gate and wanted to go in to rest because of the flood, but they were stopped by the gatekeepers.

Xiao Ningle was blocked by the yamen servants when he wanted to enter, and when he forced his way inside, he heard several officials in official uniforms whispering.

"There are more and more natural disasters. Could it be that His Majesty has been condemned by God for setting up His Royal Highness the Empress Dowager?"

"In ancient times, no woman could be an emperor. If a woman is an emperor, isn't it just that God can't see it?"

"There are so many dissatisfied people gathered outside, why don't we put the blame on the Empress Dowager?"
