Chapter 63: The two cities cooperate with the demon Yu Bingyan to destroy the laws of heaven...

Back in the cabin, Qin Yuqing looked at the various notes scattered all over the floor, walls, and desk.

He walked forward carefully and read all the contents of the notebook carefully. The person who wrote the notebook, Lord Shen, had made a very detailed review of the floods in the south over the past century and wrote down the river flow patterns of each year.

Qin Yuqing flipped through the records on the paper. The more she read, the tighter her brows furrowed. There were two time nodes marked with bright red marks by Lord Shen.

One was thirteen years ago, when the heroine of the original book was five years old and her biological mother, Chen Cairen, passed away. According to the plot of the original book, Chen Cairen wanted to make a bowl of delicious food for the heroine of the original book, but was discovered by Yu Guiren and was beaten to death.

But now think about it, Chen Cairen is the cousin of Baili family, so it is impossible for Yu Guiren not to recognize her. Besides, Yu Guiren is in the limelight in the harem, and the emperor favors her the most in the six palaces. Why would she deliberately make things difficult for Chen Cairen, who is not favored but has the support of a powerful person?

Besides, Qin Yuqing had tentatively asked her adoptive father, and he knew that the Baili family doted on Chen Cairen extremely, so it was not the case that the Baili family had abandoned her as an abandoned child, and thus she ended up being bullied/humiliated.

There was another time point that Qin Yuqing felt familiar with, but it took him a moment to remember when it was.

"Seven years ago, the river course changed again." Qin Yuqing read it softly. The Pu siblings looked up at the same time, with strange lights flashing in their eyes.

"Look, this record." Qin Yuqing took down the records of the Chan River and Luo River from thirteen years ago to the present from the center of the wall.

Pu Qingyu cleared a clean area on the desk, and then Qin Yuqing took out the two copies from thirteen years ago and seven years ago separately.

"Thirteen years ago, when my mother, Concubine Chen, passed away, the eunuchs and palace maids all said that she had offended Concubine Yu and deserved to die."

Park Qinghe was the first to react. He was also helping to investigate Chen Cairen's case. Suddenly, he realized, "I was wondering why it was so strange. Chen Cairen had left the palace and traveled to the south thirteen years ago. It's very likely that Chen Cairen, who was very familiar with the waterways at the time, discovered something serious and was silenced."

"It might be difficult to do it outside the palace, but back in the palace, it's not surprising for an unfavored talent to die in the palace, especially since the one she offended was Concubine Yu."

Qin Yuqing nodded, although the biggest reason for Chen Cairen's death was her lack of favor.

But in the emperor's cognition, Chen Cairen had left the harem. Whether it was an accident or deliberate act, the fact that Chen Cairen died in the harem had already happened.

In an instant, Qin Yuqing suddenly remembered that there might be clues in the yard where Chen Cairen was buried that she had not discovered. If Chen Cairen really discovered something in the south, she would definitely not fail to make preparations for both situations.

"Seven years ago was the day when our Park family was wiped out." Park Qinghe looked at the notebook in Qin Yuqing's hand, took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and said calmly.

"Seven years ago, I remember my father and uncles went to the south several times. When they came back, I heard them mention Chen Yu, also known as Chen Cairen." Park Qinghe paused for a moment. The memory was too long ago, and some words were not very clear.

"It seems that someone from the Baili family also came to the Park family. Later, the Fourth Princess began to frequently pester me until the incident at the Park family. She asked me to go to the back mountain, but left me alone in the heavy rain."

Park Qingyu listened to her brother's words and looked carefully at the contents of the notes. Lord Shen did not let her know everything in this small house. It was only before the flood that Lord Shen told her everything and said it to her.

"The Sixth Princess of the capital, I think she is born to be an emperor. If she comes to Ling County to lend a hand, then please ask Qingyu to take her here. She knows something inside."

Pu Qingyu didn't understand at the time, but she knew that Lord Shen had done her a favor, so after Lord Shen's death, she kept the secret alone, struggling to support Ling County and resisting wave after wave of temptations and assassinations from the capital.

It was also at this time that she gained the nickname Mr. Yu.

"The princess' biological mother and the Park family were most likely wiped out because they discovered the secret hidden in the south." Park Qingyu thought. Because her brother was not very reasonable, the elders in the family would discuss many things with her.

"I remember that Concubine Yu did come to the Park family. I don't know what they talked about, but they ended up parting on bad terms."

His thoughts gradually became clearer. Qin Yuqing was certain that Yu Bingyan could not simply want to kill him. There must be something hidden in Lingjun and Cangzhou, and they could not change this trace. They could only choose to silence everyone involved.

That leaves only one possibility. Qin Yuqing looked at the notes on the desk and said, "The secret in the south is most likely related to the private minting of copper coins."

"I heard you say before that there were clues of privately minted copper coins in the south. Could it be hidden in Cangzhou and Lingjun?" Park Qinghe asked.

Qin Yuqing walked out of the house and looked at the Chan River and the Luo River. Thirteen years ago, these two rivers flowed straight like a silky ribbon.

The craftsmen at that time also marveled at the wonders of nature, because the straight flow direction would avoid floods to the greatest extent and reduce the pressure of water discharge, not to mention the numerous tributaries flowing into the forest.

Looking back now, the overall course of the Chan and Luo rivers is crooked, like a giant, wriggling worm. Who changed the river course? Why did they do this?

Qin Yuqing took out a pen and marked the bends in the river and some tributaries. It was very likely that the dried-up tributaries she saw were because the source had been diverted or blocked.

"Pu Qinghe, you take a group of people to carefully check the points I marked. Once it is confirmed that the diversion was man-made, re-dig and dredge it directly." Qin Yuqing thought about it. Time was tight and there were not enough people.

"When the time comes, contact Lord Chen from Cangzhou and inform him of our purpose. He will cooperate with you." Qin Yuqing turned to look at Park Qingyu and continued, "According to the time, they should be here soon. I'll go check on the reservoir left by Lord Shen first."

"Qingyu, you are responsible for receiving people and bringing them to the reservoir. We have to finish building the reservoir as soon as possible."

After saying this, Qin Yuqing jumped onto her horse. She took out her whistle and blew it, and two secret guards appeared in front of her. Qin Yuqing quickly ordered, "Take away everything in this room, make a copy, and give one to Lu Jingchuan."

"Yes, Master." The secret guard said, then raised his head and continued, "But Master Lu, he..."

The secret guard looked at his master who had disappeared, sighed softly, and then left.

Park Qinghe was very fast. He did not bring the Park brothers with him on this trip, but after Yanyun City realized the danger in the south, he secretly sent a message to ask them to go to Ling County.

At the same time, after Lord Chen of Cangzhou learned that it was Qin Yuqing's request, he wanted to send all the useful people in Cangzhou.

When he arrived at the river, Pu Qinghe looked at the map given by Qin Yuqing, and then looked at the appearance of the river. He once again sighed at how terrifying this woman was. The locations she marked had almost no error, and many of the tributaries were diverted and blocked.

Some of the diverted locations still have unpleasant odors that extend into the cliffs of the forest. However, Park Qinghe knows the seriousness of the situation and gives priority to treating the river channel and restoring it as much as possible.

At the gate of Ling County.

When Park Qingyu saw the familiar figure, she rubbed her eyes and said in disbelief, "Sister Shen?"

Shen Yanqing turned around, walked forward in surprise, and hugged Pu Qingyu: "You have grown up so much, tell me, do you not trust your sister? Why didn't you tell your sister's real name in the letters over the years? I thought Mr. Yu was a man."

“The situation was special at the time, I hope Sister Shen will forgive me.”

"Okay, okay, I'm not here for anything else this time." Shen Yanqing turned sideways, and a large number of medicines, food, and winter cotton appeared in Pu Qingyu's eyes, as well as the Shen family army wearing armor.

"I was so happy when I saw these. There are so many things, enough for Yanyun City to use for two or three years. I didn't expect that Aqing still had some left." Shen Yanqing patted Pu Qingyu's head. She looked around but didn't find any familiar figures.

"Where's Qing? Why didn't she come with you?"

"The Sixth Princess went to repair the reservoir." Pu Qingyu covered his head, and then he realized that the Aqing mentioned by Shen Yanqing was referring to the Sixth Princess Qin Yuqing.

"Nonsense!" Shen Yanqing put away her joking expression, "Qingyu, I know you are the most mature and steady. We have received a decree from the mountain god in Yanyun City that there will be heavy rain in three days. You should evacuate the people first. The Shen family army will cooperate with all your actions."

Pu Qingyu nodded. She grabbed Shen Yanqing, who was anxious to leave, and said quickly, "We all know that there will be heavy rain in three days. The princess said that the reservoir must be repaired, and my brother is also rebuilding the river."

"There's still time." Shen Yanqing quickly divided the Shen family army into several teams, then looked at Xiaolu and Chuntao and said, "Goddess and Chuntao, cooperate with Qingyu to evacuate the people. General Xiao will lead the advance team to support Pu Qinghe. The rest of you, follow me to the reservoir."

But unexpectedly, it seemed to be within the medical field, because this time it was a crisis for two cities, so everyone spared no effort and worked together. No one was lazy, and no one complained.

With the help of Shen's army, the river cleaning became smoother, and some dried-up rivers have been able to flow into new rivers again.

The other side.

Qin Yuqing was standing next to the reservoir when she suddenly saw a line of words written in blood on the wall.

The evil Taoist, Yu Bingyan, has disrupted the government and harmed our Great Yin!

It’s you, Yu Bingyan!

"Here are the blueprints. The reservoir is almost finished. We'll try to finish the rest within three days. Thank you all, soldiers and craftsmen, for your hard work."

After saying that, Qin Yuqing bowed deeply to everyone. The moment they knew what she was going to do, some old craftsmen in the city and some people who had just recovered from illness spontaneously came to the reservoir. They supported Qin Yuqing with their silent actions.

They also bowed to Qin Yuqing. In their hearts, the Sixth Princess Qin Yuqing was like a ray of light, pulling them out of their lifeless state and the gates of hell.

"And us." Shen Yanqing tightened the reins with one hand, dismounted and came to Qin Yuqing's side.

"Yan Qing, why are you here? Didn't I just ask you to bring something?"

Shen Yanqing took the drawing, took out a stone from her arms and said.

"The mountain god has issued a decree that the demonic Daoist Yu Bingyan has violated the laws of heaven. He has the responsibility to protect the stability of the southern region."
