MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 420 The emperor is in danger
Seeing Ling Chu build two bridges with a big shovel and a small hammer, everyone almost cried with joy.
Gonggong An’s heart quickly dropped.
But when he saw that the flood was coming, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it's time to go."
The emperor didn't say anything. He glanced at Ling Chu, who was still meditating, and Ning Chuyi, who was standing by silently, and finally walked towards the shovel.
When the people saw the flood coming, they rushed toward the river in panic.
Fortunately, there were guardsmen maintaining order, otherwise everyone might have been crowded into a pile and someone might have fallen into the river.
In order to allow everyone to cross the river as quickly as possible, Ling Chu could only make the system absorb the energy of the jade ore crazily.
Going in and out like this at such a fast speed made her body feel uncomfortable.
But now it was at the last moment, no matter how difficult it was, she had to grit her teeth and persevere. Otherwise, all the previous efforts will be wasted, which would be a huge loss.
This trip to assist the people in Yangqu County to evacuate, although she had the emperor's order, she also had selfish motives.
After all, if she could save so many people, she would have gained a lot of merit.
While Ling Chu was distracted, the flood had already rushed over.
Ning Chuyi had to remind, "Everyone has evacuated, it's time for us to leave."
After Ling Chu came to his senses in shock, he quickly cut off the absorption of the system and stood up as soon as he put his hands on it.
Unexpectedly, he got up too violently, his vision went dark, and he fell forward.
Fortunately, Ning Chuyi reached out in time to support her, so she didn't fall.
Seeing that her expression was still not good, Ning Chuyi simply picked her up, turned around and used Qinggong to fly towards the river.
As soon as he stepped onto the shovel, the first wave of his head was like a ferocious beast, roaring and slapping at Ning Chuyi's back.
When the people standing at the foot of Daluo Mountain saw this scene, their hearts were raised. They couldn't help shouting at them, "Run quickly, the flood is coming, hurry, hurry, hurry..."
Ning Chuyi did not look back, put her toes on the big shovel, and once again hugged Ling Chu and rushed towards the other side of Daluo Mountain.
Lingchu was in his arms, blocked by his tall body, and could not see the flood chasing after him.
But this does not prevent her from casting spells.
Hands made a quick seal, then he raised his hand and smashed a yellow talisman on Ning Chuyi's back.
The talisman paper hit the wave and exploded into countless water droplets in the blink of an eye, falling from the mid-air.
Although the second wave of water followed closely, Ning Chuyi had already rushed out a large distance with Ling Chu in his arms, and did not pose any danger to them anymore.
Everyone standing at the foot of Daluo Mountain breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though Ning Chuyi was hugging someone, Ling Chu's weight was almost negligible to him. In a few ups and downs, he had already crossed the long bridge built with shovels and landed in front of everyone.
He lowered his eyes and glanced at the person in his arms before gently putting her down.
Ling Chu endured the embarrassment and waved the shovel and hammer back into the system.
She originally thought that when she saw Ning Chuyi hugging her in public, someone would scold her for immorality or something like that. Unexpectedly, she was greeted with warm applause.
Some people even ignored the muddy ground and knelt down at her and kowtowed, "Thank you, girl, for saving the lives of our whole family. You will be our family's benefactor from now on. If it weren't for you, our whole family would have drowned in the flood today." ”
“Yes, yes, yes, Fairy Lady is our benefactor in Yangqu County. Such a great kindness and kindness will never be forgotten.”
“Our family left in a hurry, and we didn’t have time to bring anything with us. We only had these copper coins with us. The fairy lady saved us by doing this. It was so hard. Don’t be too short on this little money. Use the eggs you bought to replenish your health.”
Although when they were first forced to abandon their homes and evacuate, almost all of these people were full of complaints. Also, they were forced by the Imperial Guards to keep going, and everyone dared to be angry but dare not speak out. But at this moment, all the dissatisfaction in their hearts disappeared, and they were only full of gratitude to Ling Chu. After all, if it hadn't been for her, all of them would have been drowned in the flood.
Seeing that these people were grateful for their kindness, Ling Chu's fatigue disappeared a lot.
She just refused everything that everyone sent her.
She didn’t take all the credit for saving people.
"Although I played a role in this evacuation, the one you should thank most is the Emperor. If it weren't for the Emperor's kindness and his heart that loves the people like his own son, these Forbidden Army and I would not have been able to save so many of you. You have to thank me. Just thank the Emperor, Lord Xie Ning, and the Imperial Army for helping you evacuate."
Although the emperor did not want outsiders to know that he had left Beijing, he ordered the people of Yangqu County to evacuate this time. It was impossible to hide such a big thing from outsiders.
And there is no need to hide it.
The emperor has saved so many people, which is of great benefit to his reputation and the country. It is time for the world to know his kindness.
Along the way, although everyone saw that the emperor was a noble person, they also had various guesses in their minds. But no one dared to think about the emperor.
When they heard that he was the ninety-five-year-old emperor, everyone was shocked.
The smart ones knelt down immediately after regaining their senses and said, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor. Thank you for saving my life."
With the leader taking the lead, others followed suit and knelt down, kowtowing and saying various words of gratitude excitedly.
The emperor was also very happy after saving tens of thousands of lives, but he was still thinking about rushing to Xuanqing Temple. After a few brief remarks, he comforted everyone that although their belongings were gone, they could go to Bingzhou Prefecture to find Wu Jie, the prefect.
The court would arrange for him to open a granary to store grain and provide porridge, and to raise money and materials to help everyone survive the flood.
After hearing the emperor's words, the people in Yangqu County were very happy and kowtowed one after another to thank him.
The emperor waved his hand to signal everyone to level up, and then let them leave.
These people were tired and hungry after escaping death, and they had no intention of staying longer. They all wanted to get to Bingzhou capital as soon as possible so that they could settle down after receiving money and food.
To get to Bingzhou Prefecture from here, the only way is through Daluo Mountain. Everyone carried them up the mountain in twos and threes.
The emperor is also preparing to leave with his people.
Ling Chu naturally wanted to follow, but he didn't expect that she suddenly fainted without warning just after taking a few steps. Fortunately, Ning Chuyi was right beside her and caught her in time.
Because Lingchu was a disciple of Master Xuan Yi and the daughter of King Dingyuan, the emperor had a high regard for her. In addition, Ling Chu was able to save tens of thousands of people during this trip, and Ling Chu also deserved a lot of credit.
Seeing that she fainted, the emperor immediately asked Sun Yuanzheng to check her pulse.
After half a cup of tea, Sun Yuanzheng withdrew his hand with a solemn expression, "The princess has cast spells many times along the way, and her mind has been greatly exhausted. She urgently needs a good rest now to recuperate. Otherwise, I'm afraid... her life will be in danger."
The emperor frowned. He knew that Ling Chu was not in good health, but he didn't expect it to be so serious. However, he rushed to Xuanqing Temple in a hurry. Seeing Ning Chuyi's worried look, the emperor immediately ordered him to stay and take care of Ling Chu, and wait for her to get better before going to Xuanqing Temple.
Ning Chuyi had this intention, and the emperor's words were exactly what he wanted.
After the emperor left with his people, Ning Chuyi carried Ling Chu up to Daluo Mountain and found a cave that could shelter him from the wind and rain.
Lingchu fell into a coma and didn't wake up until the next day.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ning Chuyi sitting next to her.
She subconsciously wanted to thank him, but when she looked up and saw his face, her expression changed. After a quick calculation, Ling Chu stood up immediately and said, "Hurry up, the emperor is in danger."
