On the other hand, Qin Shuo had just agreed and was in a hurry to bring Qin Shuo to the place he wanted to go.

Qin Shuo had originally wanted to change his clothes, but seeing how anxious Hu Xiao was, he gave up on the idea of changing his clothes. Especially since Hu Xiao was no longer as distant as before, instead, she took the initiative to grab onto her wrist.

Seeing that, Zhao Qiyan chased after Prefect and the people who were causing trouble just now.

Hu Xiao had been thinking about this matter since the beginning, and thus she remembered where she should go on this path.

Standing here, with a radius of several kilometers being the land of ordinary people that had already been abandoned due to the drought, Qin Shuo could not help but be disappointed, perhaps what Hu Xiao said just now could not be counted.

"Your Majesty, look at this patch of willow trees. They like to wet themselves, but there aren’t any rivers or lakes here. Since they’re living so well, you can see that there’s water underground."

"Mm, if that’s the case, then they’ll do as you say."

After looking at it for a long time, Qin Shuo still couldn’t tell what it was, and could only look at Hu Xiao with a pampered gaze.

Your Majesty, you can’t do that. This humble subject has never heard of any underground rivers and such things and this river has always flowed on this land. What kind of thing is this well and if there really is any underground river or such thing, why is the Sui City still so dry?

The one who spoke was naturally Wen Fuchen, after all, everyone here knew what Hu Xiao meant, and only Wen Fuchen himself knew that Hu Xiao’s plan was unsuccessful.

"Minister Wen, if you don’t have anything to do, you can just read a lot. You don’t even know the underground river, yet you still dare to claim that you have read a bunch of books? Then did Minister Wen s ever go to the imperial palace’s backyard? Moreover my Sui City is extremely dry right now, so I only have the mentality to give it a try. Even if I cannot get out of the water because of this, I will do my best to help, unlike Minister Wen, who has been standing behind me the entire time and only knows to say it, if you want to, you can just not do it. "

"How can the back courtyard of His Majesty’s Imperial Palace be compared to this barren land with such poor Sui City?!"

had actually forgotten about the deep wells in the Empress’ body, but the water in the wells were lured into the underground palace by the ancestors, so they weren’t dug out from the underground rivers.

Qin Shuo laughed out loud upon seeing this, he knew that Hu Xiao and Wen Fuchen were at loggerheads, and although it looked like it was true, no one dared to ask Wen Fuchen to study more.

Hu Xiao heard the commotion behind him, and turned to see Qin Shuo smiling at him. She was stunned.

Usually, Qin Shuo’s face was either cold or expressionless, but it was rare to see his smile.

"Alright, there’s no need to say anymore. Since the empress is certain that there’s water here, there must be water. Let the empress begin."

Seeing that Wen Fuchen wanted to continue, Qin Shuo quickly cut him off.

"Humph, he’s just someone who only knows how to talk on paper."

As Wen Fuchen saw this, he softly snorted. Naturally, Hu Xiao heard him, but he did not have the leisure to continue quarreling with him. Instead, he turned around and gave the order to his back.

The people who followed already knew that they were here to dig holes, so they brought their tools along. Hearing Hu Xiao’s order, they started digging.

The commotion over here was too great, and it had already attracted countless people to watch. ƒreewebɳovel.com

"Is this an official?" What are they digging? "

"Do you see that? The man wearing crescent white clothes is the Empress. I heard that when the Empress saw the river, she knew that there was a river underground, so she decided to dig a hole to lure the river underground."

"What?" That is the Empress? Even if you are a Empress, you can’t just take over a civilian’s land like this, right? This plot of land seems to belong to that widow. If we were to take over this plot of land, what will the widow do in the coming year? "

Don’t talk nonsense, what do you mean by Empress seizing the land of us civilians? Empress bought this from that widow herself, I saw it with my own eyes, and it was sold at the same price as before. This Empress is a good person!

"Yes, yes, this Empress is truly a good person. Last time, when this Empress came to the Sui City, she had already beheaded the original Prefect with a very unyielding attitude, and even distributed the food that the Prefect’s government had sent to us, the citizens of Sui City, to the outside world."

"... ..."

The crowd slowly began to discuss about Hu Xiao. Even if there were a few statements that were bad for Hu Xiao, they were quickly drowned within the crowd, and they were even listed one after another to refute the words of those people that said that Hu Xiao was bad.

Wen Fuchen originally thought that the spectators would not allow Hu Xiao to dig as she pleased, but hearing the words of the crowd, she became more and more shocked. actually had such a loud voice amongst the commoners, she was truly not simple.

If that was the case, even if he wanted to get rid of Hu Xiao, he would need to think carefully before doing so.

Looking at the soldiers who were digging enthusiastically and Qin Shuo, who was standing by the side and looking at Hu Xiao lovingly, Wen Fuchen’s heart grew colder and colder. Seeing Zhao Qiyan, who was staring at him like a tiger while looking at himself and Yin Fufeng the smiling tiger, Wen Fuchen, who was standing by the side, felt that he was really unable to move Hu Xiao more and more.

"Got it, got it!"

Just as he was about to pray, he heard a soldier exclaim in surprise.

Seeing that, Hu Xiao and Qin Shuo laughed, then anxiously walked to the side of the pit and looked inside.

and also the hole that she had dug for a long time, until Hu Xiao was about to give up, when she heard the words of the soldier.

"Hmm?"

He had originally thought that he would see crashing water, but he only saw that it was slightly lower and the soil was getting more and more moist.

"If we continue, we’ll be able to dig it up."

Hu Xiao was very excited, this was the first time she had dug such a deep well.

The surrounding citizens naturally heard the soldier’s agitated words, and immediately ignored the arguments to continue, as they looked at Hu Xiao, and spoke in shock.

"The Empress really got water out of the water?"

"Heavens, now our Sui City can be saved."

"Long live Empress."

"... ..."

But after a while, when he was thinking that Hu Xiao was lying to him, and hearing that Hu Xiao had water in the well, she could not care about anything else.
