Thief and Concubine: The Princess Attacks the Overlord's Mansion

Chapter 324 Natural Disaster [5]

With creaking footsteps, she said, "You asked me to come here just to see these?"

"Not all, I just let you watch a play by the way." Xiao Ming said.

"Then what else do you need?" Lan Yunuan stopped, shook the snow on her shoes, and asked.

Xiao Ming said with a smile: "I've been busy these days. I heard that the snow scene in Jianhu Lake is pretty good. Let's go and have a look."

Lan Yunuan scolded angrily: "I went to blow the cold wind to see the snow scene in the middle of the night, thank you for thinking of it."

Xiao Ming said: "I didn't expect it would take so long. Now I've changed my mind. I went to the nearby restaurant for a drink. I asked Ruying to fix the box."

"........."

When we arrived at the so-called restaurant, it was a high-end restaurant on the edge of Jianhu Lake. The exterior was beautifully decorated, but because of the heavy snow, there were not many people inside.

Lan Yunuan really didn't understand why Mao Xiaoming wanted to bring her to the restaurant at this time, and after the dishes were served, she couldn't help asking.

Xiao Ming smiled slightly, and said: "Going out to eat out once in a while is good for increasing the interest of husband and wife, the sixth brother said."

"........."

Slightly open the window, outside is still full of heavy snow flying messily, the north wind whizzes past, gallops in through the gap, and looking further away, a small part of Jianhu Lake is covered with thin ice, with white snow piled up on it, Going further, there is a pavilion standing in the center. A long plank road has been repaired, and the top is still full of snow. On the pavilion, there may be a few literati and poets wearing plain clothes. I don’t know why they are not afraid of the cold and talking under the candles. Poetry paints.

Lan Yunuan closed the window and said: "Those scholars are really not afraid of the cold, they are still blowing cold wind in the pavilion in the middle of the lake."

Xiao Ming smiled, picked up the wine pot on one side of the stove, slightly bent the body, and the green bamboo leaves fell into the cup with curling green smoke. He took a sip and said: "Everyone has his own ambition, they are I like it so much, Daxue Binghu, how emotional, like ours at the moment, is also quite emotional.”

"........."

Lan Yunuan took a bite of the dish and said, "Does it snow for so long every year in the winter here? It's the first time I spend the winter in the south of the Yangtze River. It's really cold. It's colder than the last time I brought it in the north. It's so cold. biting."

Speaking of this, Xiao Ming paused for a moment, and then said: "That's not the case. Although it snowed in previous years, it never stopped falling for three days and three nights. On the contrary, it was getting bigger and bigger."

Lan Yunuan remembered that in the 21st century, one year was also an eventful year. The southern ice and snow disaster was severe and frozen. This incident was broadcast on TV every day, so that later donations and so on were indispensable.

She said: "If this continues, it will become a snowstorm, and the farmers will freeze to death and starve to death, what should we do?"

Xiao Ming nodded, and said: "I'm also worried about this. Tomorrow, I will let the national grain depot deliver rice grains. After a few days, such things may have happened in the nearby counties. It's just that It hasn't been reported yet."

"Yes, take precautions early."

On the second day, with the emperor's consent, Xiao Ming asked the people from the household department to deliver the grain. Although the snow continued to fall, everyone in the court felt more at ease.

What people didn't expect was that after half a month, although the snow had stopped, the low temperature continued to spread, and the snow that had been falling for several days and nights was melting, and it was extremely cold at this time.
