When Zi Tong returned to his home, the first thing he did was eat.
Staring at Zitong who was devouring his food, Zisai felt heartbroken: "Slow down! Don't choke!"
"Yeah!" Zi Tong responded vaguely, until he was completely full, then he put down his chopsticks with satisfaction: "I can finally understand what it feels like for people to be hungry every day and not have enough to eat!"
"Yes! That kind of feeling can be tolerated in the short term, but if it goes on like this for a long time, everyone will want to resist!" Mr. Yuan agreed, not knowing the suffering of the people in the past two years.
"But it's better now! The river is open, and God has been kind enough to start raining. I believe that in a short time, the people will be able to live their old lives!" Zi Tong also begged silently in his heart, not to let the people here again,
suffer any hardship.
"Yes! God finally gave me some rain!" Mr. Yuan sighed and couldn't help but laugh at himself: "But this rain from God really comes at the wrong time. We just spent several months digging the river channel, and it fell.
It started to rain, so all our months of hard work were in vain!”
"Who said it would be in vain?!" Zi Tong replied reluctantly: "The dug river can not only store water for emergencies; it also has a greater use..." Zi Tong raised his eyebrows: "...
There are a lot of fields around the river! You can make more waterwheels and place them at the edge of each field. In this way, even if there is no rainfall for several months, people can use the waterwheels to irrigate the fields.
Guarantee the harvest!"
"Waterwheels actually have such a purpose?" Mr. Yuan was extremely surprised and felt that the drought was a blessing in disguise.
"That's right!" Zi Tong taught Master Yuan the method of watering with water trucks in detail, so that he could benefit the people.
After hearing this, Mr. Yuan thanked you repeatedly: "Princess! You are truly a living Bodhisattva. I believe that the people here will remember you forever!"
"Don't give me a high hat!" Zi Tong waved his hands a little shyly: "As long as the common people are practical!"
"Princess! Regardless of whether you accept it or not, I want to thank you on behalf of all the people in the city!" After saying this, he was about to kneel down.
"Master Yuan! No courtesy!" Zi Tong hurriedly spoke out to stop him from kneeling.
"Master Yuan! It's getting late, you go down first and let Zi Tong rest for a while!" Zisai said at the right time.
"Yes!" Mr. Yuan responded and slowly exited the room.
After he left, Zi Tong took a long breath: "It's really annoying to deal with these officials, they have to kneel down and worship at every turn!"
Zisai laughed: "How can a country not pay attention to etiquette?"
"But in our time and space, everyone is equal, and there are no such messy etiquettes!" Zi Tong muttered, still not used to the so-called kneeling ceremony.
"But this is the Kingdom of Chuxia, a country that pays attention to respect and etiquette!" Zisai reminded.
"I know!" Zi Tong responded dully; thinking about whether he could give advice to the emperor when he returned to the palace, he abandoned these etiquette.
It was obvious at a glance that she was starting to think about irrelevant things; Zisai rubbed her hair: "Stop thinking about it, go up and rest for a while!"
"You stay with me!" Zi Tong demanded decisively.
"Okay!" Zisai helped Zitong walk towards Zhitong and thoughtfully covered her with a thin quilt.
Zitong Rouyi held Zisai's hand tightly: "You can't run away!"
Zisai patted Zitong's forehead lovingly: "Go to sleep!"
"Oh!" Zi Tong playfully stuck out the tip of his tongue, and then slowly closed his eyelids.
…
Five days later, the last trivial matters were dealt with; Zi Sai took Zi Tong on the road back to the imperial capital.
As soon as the carriage left the government office, it was surrounded by a group of people who came to see him off.
"They are so enthusiastic!" Zi Tong hid in the carriage and secretly looked at the people from the curtains.
The corner of Zisai's lips curled up slightly: "I'll go out and take a look, just stay there!"
"Oh!" Zi Tong nodded hurriedly, since he didn't really like such a big scene anyway.
"Princess! Princess..."
Zi Tong suddenly heard a familiar voice, calling him incessantly; looking in the direction of the source of life, he saw Xiao Bing and a simple-looking man shouting at him.
"You! Go and help me bring those two people over!" Zi Tong stretched his head and ordered the officer beside the car.
"Yes!" the yamen officer responded, quickly squeezing in the direction of Xiao Bing.
Zi Tong lowered the car curtain and waited quietly for Xiao Bing's arrival.
After a while, Xiaobing and the man came to the carriage under the leadership of the Yamen servant.
"Princess!" Xiaobing lifted the car curtain, her eyes filled with tears of gratitude and deep reluctance.
Zi Tong stretched out his head and lay down beside the car: "As the saying goes, all banquets in the world come to an end; separation is only a matter of time, there is nothing to cry about!" From the corner of his eyelids, he looked at the man beside Xiao Bing: "Is he your best friend?
"
"Yeah!" Xiaobing nodded hurriedly, stretched out his hand and gently tugged on the man's clothes: "Aniu! Why don't you meet the princess soon?"
After receiving the instruction, A Niu hurriedly knelt down and said: "The common people kowtow to the princess!"
"Flat body!" Zi Tong raised his fingertips to signal.
"Thank you, princess!" Aniu stood up with a slightly naive smile on his face.
"You have reached the marriageable age, when are you going to hold the wedding?" Zi Tong asked casually.
A hint of shyness appeared on Xiao Bing's face: "A Niu and his family said that the sooner the better, so the wedding is scheduled for half a month!"
"That's fine!" Zi Tong frowned: "A Niu has been waiting for you for nearly three years, you should get married as soon as possible!"
Xiaobing nodded gently, and couldn't help but shed tears of gratitude again in her eyes: "Princess! If it weren't for you, I would never have been able to enjoy the happiness that I have now! If it weren't for you, I would never have been able to enjoy the happiness that I have now! Your great kindness and kindness will be remembered for the rest of my life!"
Xiaobing suddenly knelt down without any warning: "Princess! I'm here to kowtow to you!"
Upon seeing this, A Niu knelt down and said, "The common people are also kowtowing to you!"
"Okay! Everyone, get up!" Zi Tong said: "As long as you live in harmony for the rest of your life, it will be the best gratitude to me!"
Xiaobing and Aniu looked at each other and smiled: "Don't worry, princess! We will definitely live a good life!"
"That's good!"
After saying goodbye to the people, Zisai walked into the carriage again: "It's getting late, it's time for us to set off!"
"Well!" Zi Tong responded, waving to Xiao Bing and A Niu: "We are about to set off, see you when we have the chance!"
"Goodbye, princess!" Xiaobing and Aniu waved: "Have a good trip, princess! Have a good trip, Master Zisai!"
Zi Tong smiled slightly and lowered the car curtain.
"Let's go!" Zi Sai's thin lips parted slightly.
"Yes!" As the voice came, the carriage that was stationary began to move slowly.
"Ice cube face! I've been here for nearly half a year, and now I'm leaving suddenly, I'm really reluctant to leave!" Zi Tong murmured softly, leaning his head on Yu Zisai's shoulder.
Zi Sai stretched out his hand to take him into his arms and smiled fondly: "If you can't bear to part with me, I will bring you back when you want to come in the future!"
