The woman widened her eyes excitedly, watching the child's mouth sucking faster and faster, tears streaming down her face, and she knelt down towards Chen Yong.
As soon as she bent her knees, Chen Yong held her arm.
"Stop kneeling, find a shady place, and take good care of the child."
"Thank you, Your Highness. Thank you, Your Highness. Long live Your Highness!" The woman was so excited that she was incoherent, and she kept saying words of gratitude.
Judge Ding and the yamen runners standing by were all dumbfounded.
They looked at the baby drinking milk in the woman's arms with confused faces.
They are not surprised by the baby bottle, as this thing has existed in China for a long time and comes in all shapes and sizes. The shape of this baby bottle is not strange either, it is in the shape of a gourd.
They were shocked to find that the bottle seemed to be made of glass.
Oh my God, the glass bottle is something that is exclusively used in the royal palace, and King Qianhuang just gave it to a woman so casually.
If you sell such a clear glass bottle, you will get at least 10,000 taels of silver.
They were also curious about why King Qianhuang carried a bottle of milk with him?
Judge Ding looked at Shen Yong's chest in confusion, frowning slightly.
He hadn't seen the bulge on the prince's chest just now. It should be obvious if the bottle is hidden on his chest.
Chen Yong glanced at the dumbfounded Ding Tongpan and others and ordered,
"Guard this place well! The Dragon King has appeared. Don't be surprised by anything you see!!"
A bottle of milk scared these people silly, and when he took out the lifting ladder, these people would be scared to faint.
"...Yes!" Judge Ding Tong came back to his senses and bowed in response.
Under the gaze of everyone, Shen Yong walked to the altar and shouted,
"Please, Dragon King------"
As soon as the voice fell, he took out his old partner from the space, the ladder.
Then all operations were the same as in Fanjing City.
Shen Yong climbed the high ladder in full view of everyone.
I also bought 100,000 tons of water.
One ton of water costs 2.5 yuan, so 100,000 tons of water costs 250,000 yuan.
[Ding, consumption yuan, account balance yuan...]
The river in Anyun City is much smaller than that in Fanjing City, so 100,000 tons of water is almost enough.
If it is not enough, he will come to release water at night.
Previously, 220,000 tons of water were released in Fanjing City at one time, almost making the people in the city kneel down.
He was not comfortable standing on the ladder in the scorching sun for such a long time.
The people squinted their eyes and looked up in the scorching sun.
The reflection from the ladder made it impossible for them to see King Qianhuang on top of it.
It was not until dozens of thick water jets suddenly spurted out from the ladder that the people turned their gaze away and looked at the riverbed in shock.
"The Dragon King has appeared!!" The crowd knelt down like a tide, their excited voices tinged with tears.
"The Dragon King has appeared and emerged from the water..."
"It's really coming out of the water. The prince has invited the Dragon King..."
"There's so much water! We're saved..."
“.......”
The dry riverbed greedily absorbed the clear water until it could no longer absorb it, and then the waterline in the riverbed began to slowly rise.
Judge Ding Tong's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock. Looking at the clear water pouring down like a waterfall in front of him, he couldn't recover for a long time.
No way!!!
This is not inviting the Dragon King, it is clear that King Qianhuang is the Dragon King himself.
He had never seen anyone invite the Dragon King so quickly.
Not to mention the simplicity of the ceremony, there were no offerings and no sacrificial texts were read. How could they just invite the Dragon King in such a simple way?
Judge Ding pursed his cracked lips and knelt down.
"Long live the prince!!!"
The dumbfounded yamen runners on the side were shocked when they heard Ding Tongpan's treasonous words.
After hesitating for a moment, the yamen runners looked at the source of the water rushing down and knelt down as well.
........
Beijing...
"I want to see Minister Jiang. I have extremely urgent military information!" Guard Li rushed to the door of Jiang's mansion and blocked the sedan chair that had just returned, shouting in a hoarse voice.
Logically, he should have gone to the Minister of War, but before he even reached the door, the guards drove him out as if he were a madman. He could only try his luck with the Minister of Justice.
He is now as unkempt as a beggar. Not only is his hair disheveled and his appearance dirty, but the smell on his body is enough to suffocate people.
He didn't even dare to look at what his face looked like now.
But from his black, cracked hands, it can be seen that his face is not much better.
“Who is it?!”
Minister Jiang listened to the noisy sound in front of the sedan chair and asked with a frown.
When Guard Li heard Minister Jiang's voice, his eyes lit up.
"Sir Jiang, I am the personal guard accompanying the Imperial Envoy to Qianhuang... Extinguishing Fire City."
Guard Li did not dare to delay at all and quickly revealed his identity, for fear that he would be mistaken for a beggar and beaten out if he was late.
"Imperial Commissioner?"
Minister Jiang frowned, lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and looked at Guard Li who was blocking the way.
Guard Li nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Lord Qu has been ordered to go to Huocheng to investigate the illegal expansion of the city wall."
"My humble position is to be the personal guard beside Lord Qu."
Minister Jiang looked at Guard Li in confusion.
"Since you are a personal guard, why don't you stay with Lord Qu?"
"What happened?"
Minister Jiang looked Guard Li up and down and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Could it be that the refugees in the northwest are causing trouble and Lord Qu has met with an accident?
Hey~~
The capital has just recovered and has no ability to support the northwest.
The water in the wells in the capital is almost gone. If it doesn’t rain, the capital will also run out of water.
"Master Jiang!" Guard Li cried and knelt down.
"Something terrible has happened. Fire Extinguishing City has been seized by the Shen family. Shen Yong has proclaimed himself king and has imprisoned the Imperial Envoy..."
"What!?" Minister Jiang stood up suddenly in shock.
"Bang"
"Ouch~~"
Minister Jiang covered his head which had hit the top of the sedan chair and looked at Guard Li in shock.
“You mean, the exiled Shen Yong went to Fire Extinguishing City!?”
"How is this possible?"
"General Zhong is stationed in Fire Extinguishing City. How could he allow Shen Yong to proclaim himself king?"
Guard Li cried out in a crying voice,
"Sir, this is absolutely true!"
"General Zhong and Prefect Deng have already followed Shen Yong. They are traitors!!"
"Here is a letter from a noble man, which I must present to His Majesty immediately."
As he spoke, Guard Li took out the letter he had carefully protected from his arms.
The letter was wrapped in several layers of handkerchiefs. He was afraid that the letter would get wet with sweat and blur the words on it, so he kept it in the package.
I arrived in the capital these two days, and I put the letter in my arms because I was afraid that my bag would be stolen.
