I Became the Heroine of Abusive Novel and Her Elder Brother - Chapter 71
When Jun Huailang’s room was replaced with a new one, it was almost noon.
Jun Huailang returned to the room, and the little servants in the courtyard began to pack up his belongings. Jun Huailang sat down at the table, looked around, and was not used to it for a while.
But he also saw that the furniture in the room was all placed on Xue Yan’s boat that day.
It’s really his own thing.
Jun Huailang looked at the intact boxwood furniture outside the door, and a helpless smile hung on the corner of his lips.
At this moment, there is a bang.
An object suddenly fell out of the small box that Fu Yi was holding. Jun Huailang looked over and saw a wolf tooth tied with a leather rope on the ground.
He suddenly remembered that this was given to him by Xue Yan on New Year’s Day.
After he accepted it, he was afraid that he would lose it, so he handed it over to Fuyi for safekeeping. Unexpectedly, they were brought to Jiangnan together.
Fuyi saw something missing, so he quickly put down the box and leaned over to pick it up. After picking it up, I discovered that it was such a crude animal tooth.
“Huh?” Fu Yi picked up the wolf tooth and asked curiously. “Where did you get this, young master?”
Jun Huailang raised his hand, and Fuyi sent the animal tooth into his hand.
Jun Huailang held the wolf tooth and held it in front of him.
The last time he took it, he didn’t take a closer look. It wasn’t until now that I noticed that the leather rope tied to the wolf teeth had mottled wear and tear, and the wolf teeth were also smooth, and they were rounded in the hand, thinking that they had been held and rubbed for a long time.
Jun Huailang involuntarily took this thing into the palm of his hand.
A smooth canine tooth, icy cold, soon caught his body temperature.
He suddenly remembered that when Xue Yan gave him this thing that day, he didn’t say much, only said that it was the canine teeth in the wolf’s mouth that he hunted. But now it seems that this is clearly an object he carries with him every day, and to him, it should be more precious than the stack of silver bills.
Jun Huailang’s thumb moved slightly and rubbed lightly on the wolf tooth.
“Master, can I put it away for you again?” Seeing him playing with him for a while, Fu Yi stepped forward and asked according to his usual habit.
Jun Huailang hummed, but his eyes stopped on the wolf teeth.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered the knife under Xue Yan’s pillow, and the flames that jumped in his eyes when Xue Yan gave it to him that day.
“This is supposed to be…on a neck?” he asked.
Fuyi was stunned for a moment: “Master, do you want to wear this?”
Jun Huailang fiddled with it lightly, but did not answer, but untied the leather rope and looped it around his neck.
Fuyi hurriedly stepped forward to tie it for him.
Although his young master doesn’t talk about it on weekdays, he has always been exquisite in food, clothing, housing and transportation.
“The servant will change the rope for you?” Fu Yi suggested.
Young master does not like to wear things on his neck on weekdays, even if he wears it, he will use light and soft silk sash. Such a noble family with bells and whistles, although they don’t wear gold and silver on their bodies like the nouveau riche, it looks simple, but in fact, everything is fine from head to toe.
But his young master did not hesitate after listening to his proposal.
“No need to change,” he said. “Just use this.”
—
After this day, although Xue Yan objected that day, Jun Huailang still went to Linjiang Academy every day.
The dam is very wide, and it will definitely take a lot of effort and energy to inspect it alone. But one is that he can’t tell others about the rebirth at will, and the other is that no one knows more about water conservancy than him today, so he has to do it himself and go every day.
However, after more than half of the inspection of the dam, the vicinity of the dam was surrounded and construction began.
I heard from the surrounding people that the official road near the North City Gate is too narrow and rugged, so the government must be renovated uniformly. That section of the official road was right next to the embankment, and even the surrounding river embankments were enclosed together.
Now, Jun Huailang can’t approach the river bank.
For this reason, he made a special trip to Jinling Mansion to find his father.
“It can be repaired in a month.” Yongning is fair. “They discussed a few days ago, and they all said that the official road in the north is not smooth. Because the merchant ships traveling from the south to the north often travel by water, the construction of the land road is always put on hold. Repair the road.”
Jun Huailang hesitated.
Although road construction is a good thing, the situation this year is too special. In more than two months, the dam will burst. It is better to save the money than to spend money to build the road at this time.
However, you cannot tell your father directly about the past life.
“What?” Seeing his hesitant expression, Duke Yongning asked. “If you have any questions, even if you are the same father.”
Jun Huailang said, “How much does this road construction cost?”
After all, the price of food in the city will soar. The grain stored by the government needs to open warehouses and release it to the people, and to support the craftsmen and officials. If it is not enough at that time, it has to spend money to buy it from the merchants.
The Duke of Yongning listened to his question and said, “It’s just to smooth the road, and it won’t cost too much money. Besides, the nearby villages and towns may be transported, and the profit will definitely be higher than the cost.”
Jun Huailang felt relieved when he heard this.
Since his father said it would be repaired in January, it must be too late. When the road is repaired, he will have enough time to inspect the remaining section of the dam, and he will be able to find out the hidden dangers.
Once the road is repaired, even if the flood cannot be prevented, the newly built road can be used to transport food from surrounding villages and towns and transfer people.
Thinking of this, Jun Huailang is relieved.
It was during this time that I was free again.
“That’s good.” Jun Huailang said with a smile. “Repairing the official road is also a good thing for the people.”
Yongning Gong nodded and asked again: “In two days, the father and Shen Zhifu will go to Yangzhou to inspect, can you go with me?”
“Go to Yangzhou?” Jun Huailang remembered that Shen Liufeng had mentioned it to himself, and couldn’t help but be stunned.
Yongning Gong nodded and said: “This year there is too much rain, and Yangzhou has rivers and rivers, so there must be disasters. As a father, I discussed with Shen Zhifu and went to Yangzhou to inspect to see if There is a danger of disaster.”
Jun Huailang recalled the past life, Jiangnan was chaotic due to floods, but Yangzhou, where the water network was crisscrossed, was not affected at all.
The flood of the Yangtze River was blocked by the dykes of Yangzhou.
When Jun Huailang heard the words, he was also interested, and said, “If it is convenient, my son would like to go together.”
Gong Ning smiled lightly when he heard the words.
“Convenient,” he said. “Your uncles like you very much.”
It is natural. After coming to Jinling for a year, Jun Huailang’s original intention was to find out the main officials of Jinling, so as to facilitate the follow-up in case of accidents in the future, so he always went to Jinling to help. During his previous life, he was able to handle all kinds of government affairs well. Several officials who accompanied his father were naturally happy to see that he was quick to get started and willing to help.
Jun Huailang smiled and nodded, and it was agreed with his father.
The news reached Xue Yan’s ears that night.
“Your Highness, what should I prepare?” Seeing Xue Yan sitting in front of the desk and pondering, Jin Bao, who was quite knowledgeable, stepped forward and asked carefully.
Xue Yan paused.
“I don’t ride,” he said. “Prepare a spacious carriage.”
Jin Bao understood and stepped back with a smile.
So, two days later, in the early morning, Jun Huailang followed his father to the gate of Jinling Mansion, and found that the carriage that was going to be there was one less.
The regulations of the officials are very strict. Whoever rides alone and who rides with whom are all arranged. Therefore, after lining up all the way, Jun Huailang was actually dropped.
For a time, the officials in the government office were a little flustered.
The carriage for this trip was prepared two days in advance. During this inspection, there were many officials who went there, and now there are no carriages in the yamen.
If you go to prepare now, it is estimated that you will not be able to leave until half the morning.
The clerk in charge of the car was so frightened that he was sweating coldly.
Gong Ning heard the chaos outside, opened the curtain, and asked what happened.
The clerk hurriedly said that there was one less carriage. Duke Yongning snorted and said, “Don’t be busy. Huailang, get into my father’s car.”
At this moment, a horse-drawn carriage came in a mighty way not far away.
This car is large and solemn, completely different from the car prepared in the ordinary government, it is the unique configuration of the county king. In front of and behind the car, there were dozens of guards in brocade clothes riding tall horses.
The officials quickly got off the carriage and saluted the carriage.
already?”
The little official was so scared that his legs were weak.
Prince Yongning was good at talking, so he solved the crisis for him. Unexpectedly, there were wolves before and tigers behind, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the King of Guangling had come to ask questions.
It is said that King Guangling is violent and resolute in killing.
Of course he was ineffective. In order to make him ineffective, I sent someone to ask him yesterday, adding one more and one less, so he just made him dizzy, and he was able to make him miscalculate the number and reserve one less car.
Jin Bao cast a condescending glance at him, turned and returned to his life.
The clerk’s legs were weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
This royal family is not an ordinary official. No matter how high-level officials are, they must act according to the law, and there is no real right to life and death on the surface. But the royal family is different, their own life is in front of them, and nothing can be counted.
Seeing his appearance, Jun Huailang knew what he was afraid of.
He whispered: “It’s okay, it’s just a car. If King Guangling is angry, I’ll help you beg for mercy.”
The clerk gave him a grateful look and wished he could kowtow to him.
Jun Huailang smiled and shook his head at him.
After a while, Jinbao came back.
“The lord said it, it’s not an example.” He looked at the little official with a cold tone.
The clerk quickly kowtowed and confessed his guilt.
However, seeing Jin Baoluo raise his hand to get him up, he followed a few steps forward and walked in front of Jun Huailang.
“His Royal Highness, please.” He bowed with a smile.
Jun Huailang was puzzled: “Huh?”
I saw Jin Bao smiling happily, and there was a successful smile hidden in those narrowed eyes.
“The lord said that his carriage and horses are spacious, and he invites His Royal Highness to ride with him.”
