After divorcing my ex-husband, I became the princess of the county

Lu Wanzhi listened to the heavy rain outside, and couldn't fall asleep again. Hearing the more and more rapid rain outside, she was very worried about Zhao Heng who was beside the Hejiang River.

Finally fell asleep, and in the dream, Zhao Heng was wet and fell into the mud pit.

Lu Wanzhi really couldn't sleep, so she entrusted the children to Xu Xiang and the maid in the palace to take care of them, so she took an umbrella and went to the He River.

At the mouth of the Hejiang River where the embankment broke, I saw a few policemen and guards in the county government building in the rain, relying on two small lanterns to rush to repair the embankment in the dark, only Zhao Heng was not there, "Where is the magistrate?"

Xu Butou said to Lu Wanzhi: "The magistrate said that we don't have enough manpower, so he went to Mingzhou to transfer troops."

Lu Wanzhi said: "Really, he rushed to Mingzhou in such a heavy rain, and the road was all mountain roads, so he didn't want to die?"

Lu Wanzhi worried all night, but when it was dawn, the rain became more and more rapid.

There are many openings along the Hejiang River that seem to be broken through.

"Master County, I beg you to order the gates to be opened quickly. The farmland here has been destroyed. We have been busy for a whole year, and all our work has been wasted!"

Seeing several villagers being arrested, Lu Wanzhi knelt down and cried.

Lu Wanzhi went forward with an umbrella and said, "You can't open the gates. The downstream is where the people in the city live. Flooding here will damage the food. Flooding downstream will kill the people in the city. There are tens of thousands of people in the city. Last name, it’s not something that can be transferred just by saying it can be transferred.”

"This food is also our life!"

"Our side is flooded every year. Our house has been rebuilt not long ago. If it is flooded again today, we may not survive!"

"The people in the city sing and sing every night every year without worry. Why are the people in our village so miserable!"

Listening to the villagers' cries, Lu Wanzhi felt uncomfortable and said: "If the food is gone, we can plant it again. The city is flooded, but it will kill people. The dam here is not strong anymore. You guys go away!"

Lu Wanzhi looked at the crumbling embankment, this was the first time she faced such fierce water conditions, fear had spread all over her body.

What I saw in the books and what I saw in the field turned out to be so different.

"If we don't leave, we won't be able to survive without food. We are so old, we can't be displaced anymore!"

Lu Wanzhi said: "It's important for people to live!"

"It's all about death. We have to open the gate for whatever we say today."

"Open the gate, why are the people in our village suffering every year?"

Lu Wanzhi saw the people going towards the gate, and even led the guards to stop them: "There are tens of thousands of people in Shanyin City below, and you also have relatives and friends in the city. They are all from your hometown. There are old people, women and children there. The baby is only eight months old, if you open the gates to release the flood, have you ever thought about what will happen to those people?"

"But if we don't leak it into the city, our lives and our homes will be destroyed!"

"Open the gate!"

Seeing these rioting villagers, Lu Wanzhi frowned, "With me here today, you don't want to open the gate..."

"You are a woman, stop meddling in your own business!"

The troublemakers rushed forward one after another, and the guards brought by Lu Wanzhi detained a few people, but they couldn't stop the crowd, and decided to go to the gate to make trouble.

Lu Wanzhi was pushed away mercilessly by them, her feet were covered with mud, she slipped, and when she was about to fall, she was supported by Shen Luozhi, "Mr. Lu."

Seeing Shen Luozhi approaching, Lu Wanzhi said, "Stop them from opening the gate, once the gate is opened, Shanyin City will be completely flooded."

Shen Luozhi helped Lu Wanzhi and said, "Where is Zhao Heng?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "He has something to do, you send someone to stop them, my Yueer Chenger is still in the city! There are so many people in the city, once they are flooded, hundreds of thousands of people will die at that time!"

"Sister-in-law." He Yue walked up to Lu Wanzhi and said, "Sister-in-law, don't care about these fools!"

"Princess Yuyue, when did you come here?" Lu Wanzhi looked at Yuyue with a trace of wariness in her eyes.

This also made Lu Wanzhi feel that something was wrong. At this time last year, the Hejiang River was also full of water. Although Zhao Heng led people to protect him desperately, no one ever made a fuss about opening the gate.

There are tens of thousands of people in the city below. It is impossible for these rioters to have no relatives and friends in the city, so how could they be willing to open the gate?

Lu Wanzhi stood up and yelled to the crowd who were clamoring to open the gate: "Don't open the gate, I guarantee that regardless of whether your damaged grain is ripe or not, I will buy it from you for ten yuan a catty of millet! Your damaged houses today will also be repaired by the government. !"

The few commoners who clamored to open the gate were stunned and said: "What can you say as a woman? Open the gate!"

"We can't believe what your government said."

Lu Wanzhi frowned slightly. Just as she was doing this, she heard the sound of horses' hooves, and saw the leader, Zhao Heng, driving the horse with his body wet.

Zhao Heng saw Lu Wanzhi from a distance, got off his horse, hugged Lu Wanzhi and said, "Why did you come here? You don't even look at how dangerous this place is, if the dam is destroyed, you will be washed away by the flood! "

Lu Wanzhi leaned in Zhao Heng's arms and said, "They are causing trouble, and they want to open the floodgates to release the flood into the city."

Seeing the rioters, Zhao Heng ordered the soldiers who brought them: "Take them down, and the rest of them will hurry up to put sandbags and reinforce the embankment."

The heavy rain fell, and Lu Wanzhi's whole body was completely wet. She saw people passing sandbags, and some soldiers pressed down on the dam that was about to burst with their flesh and blood, regardless of danger.

"It's too dangerous, human life is at stake!"

"Princess Princess, we didn't think about surviving when we went to Mingzhou to serve as soldiers. We are the sons of fishermen who were bullied by pirates. Although we don't grow food, we also know the importance of food. We will protect it with all our might! "

Lu Wanzhi saw that most of the soldiers in front of her were about fifteen or sixteen years old, much younger than her, but they were so brave and fearless.

Zhao Heng said to Lu Wanzhi: "Go back quickly, we are here!"

Lu Wanzhi held Zhao Heng's hand tightly and said, "I'll be with you."

Zhao Heng smiled and said: "I know you like me very much, but you still don't admit that you hate me, forget it, you follow me closely."

Lu Wanzhi said: "At this time, can you still laugh?"

Zhao Heng said: "Because we will definitely keep every inch of land in Shanyin City!"

Shen Luozhi saw Zhao Heng and Lu Wanzhi whose fingers were intertwined, and said to He Yue who was beside him: "Princess, you saw it, and not all men are like what you said. Today, I am here to fight the flood with my life." All the fights are men, not women."

He Yue said: "This is the injustice of the world! Men can join the army, but women don't even have the qualifications to join the army, so those who make meritorious deeds are men and not women."

Shen Luozhi said slowly: "Princess, if you want to be the lord of the world, the most important thing is the hearts of the people in the world. You have seen that the king of the small county cares more about the people than you. In order to punish the king of Chu and Zhao Heng, you did not hesitate to encourage people Open the gate, trying to make the whole city of Sanin suffer from disaster.

But Zhao Heng and Lu Wanzhi are here to guard each other desperately, with your ambition, it is impossible to win the throne forever. "

He Yue sneered and said: "Shanyin City was destroyed after opening the gate, Your Majesty must blame Zhao Heng, and I can use the displaced people in Shanyin.

I can also buy the rations I have protected and use as my army rations. My strategy is more effortless than Zhao Heng's life-and-death struggle.

Once all the achievements are completed, the bones of these people will die because of my great cause, and they will be regarded as worthy of death.

However, although Zhao Heng ruined my strategy, he dispatched troops at will, if he couldn't defend the embankment, he and these soldiers would die, and they would still be punished. "

Shen Luozhi glanced at He Yue, walked up to Zhao Heng and said, "Do you want me to help?"

Zhao Heng said with distaste: "As long as you have small arms, legs, legs, and body, you can study, but forget about carrying sandbags and carrying stones!"

Shen Luozhi said: "How much is a contribution."

Lu Wanzhi smiled and said: "Then let's go together, I don't have much strength, so let's carry the sandbags together."

"What are you and Shen Luozhi?"

Lu Wanzhi: "...Zhao Heng, are you still jealous at this level?"

Zhao Heng snorted softly: "You and I are us, Shen Luozhi is an outsider, I will fight against the sandbags with you, and let Shen Luozhi and the soldiers fight against the rocks together."
