Apart from occasionally visiting the prison to look after the Ning Marquis and his wife, Su Moyan spends the rest of his time solving cases with his brothers.
"Yanyan, my second brother is going to Mocheng to provide disaster relief. Do you want to go with him?"
"Go, second brother, when are we leaving? I can pack my luggage in advance."
"You should get a good rest tonight and set off early tomorrow morning."
"OK."
There was a serious drought in Mocheng. Fortunately, the imperial court made a waterwheel, but relying on the wheel to pull water could only solve the temporary need. It would be best to dig an underground river or underground well in Mocheng to solve the water problem there.
The emperor and empress have gone out to understand the people's sentiments. Baili Yi is the crown prince, so of course he stays to govern the country.
Baili Rui has been busy making new weapons recently. Baili He and Baili Gucheng have a secret mission and have been away for a month. No one knows what the mission is.
Su Moyan did not bring any maids with her this time when she went out. The reason was that the little maids in the palace were all delicate and weak girls, and taking them with her would only hold her back.
The brother and sister set off with their team in a mighty procession.
"Sister, what are you loading on this carriage?"
"Second brother, you can't even tell, it's just a water bag."
"Although there are water on the dozens of carriages behind us, we are going to Mocheng. What is lacking there? Of course it is water. It is a good idea to bring more water."
Just a few dozen miles away from Mo City, the roadside was already filled with people sitting in a panic. It was not that they didn't want to go any further, but they simply didn't have the strength.
"Stop the car and give them some water."
The leading guard stepped forward and asked them to line up.
When the fleeing people heard that there was water to drink, they lined up in long queues.
One of them held a broken bowl in his hand, and the guards stood in several rows, two people in a group, one pouring water and the other handing them bread.
The refugees had some strength after eating and drinking, and when they heard that they were going into the city to help with disaster relief, they all followed them.
The situation in the city was not much better, with refugees lying exhausted on the streets.
Baili Feiyang ordered his subordinates to immediately set up a big pot to cook porridge for them.
The common people knelt down to thank him.
Su Moyan had already slipped out alone to look for water.
"System, please help me find a water source nearby?"
"Host, don't worry. This system is watching."
When she reached a place where mosquitoes gathered in clusters, the system stopped her.
"Host, there must be a water source underneath. Go back and get someone to dig. It's absolutely right to listen to this system."
Really? Then I'll just believe what it says for now.
After hearing this, Baili Feiyang immediately arranged for soldiers to go and dig.
I hope we can really dig out a water source. There are so many refugees, and the dozens of trucks of water we brought are far from enough.
Sending the message back and then transporting it from the capital is a long journey and is not a good idea.
Fortunately, after everyone's efforts, a water source was finally dug out after seven days.
He also found some pebbles and threw them into the water, making it clear. The people were so happy that they picked up their wooden buckets and ran to fetch water for a shower. They didn't even remember how long it had been since they had last taken a shower.
Baili Feiyang quickly took the local officials to look for water sources everywhere, hoping to dig more.
Su Moyan would also share with them her experience on how to find water sources.
Half a year later, Mocheng had dozens of wells of various sizes, completely solving the water shortage problem.
"Brother, when you successfully rescue the disaster and return, the Emperor will surely reward you handsomely. What do you want? Do you want to marry a gentle and beautiful wife? Or do you want gold, silver, and treasures?"
Baili Feiyang patted her head gently.
"You little girl, you're making fun of your brother again."
The carriage suddenly stopped, and when the curtain was lifted, a girl with a shy smile was standing in front.
"This humble lady greets His Royal Highness the Second Prince and Your Royal Highness the Princess. This is the dry food that the villagers of Liujia Village have jointly prepared for you. I hope you will accept it."
Su Moyan was just about to get out of the car to get it, but unexpectedly, the second brother of this family got off before her.
"Thank you, Miss Liu. I'm sorry for the expense."
He took out a bag of silver from his bosom and stuffed it into Miss Liu's arms.
"I can't take your things for free, so just think of them as my purchases."
Miss Liu lowered her head shyly and wanted to return the silver to him, but Baili Feiyang did not give her the chance and quickly got on the carriage.
"Goodbye Miss Liu, go back quickly!"
"Goodbye, Sister Liu."
Su Moyan stared at Baili Feiyang with a curious look.
"Second brother, what's going on? Tell me, are you interested in Sister Liu?"
"Sister Liu is very beautiful, gentle, virtuous, and very capable. If I were a man, I would also like such a good girl."
Baili Feiyang's face turned red all the way to his ears.
"Don't talk nonsense, or you'll ruin the girl's reputation."
"Second brother is really gentle and considerate, and he even thinks about other girls. Don't worry, I'm only saying this in front of you, and I won't say it outside."
"But I heard from Aunt Liu that Sister Liu is not young anymore, and the family just suffered a drought. They really don't have any extra food, so they want to marry Sister Liu off as soon as possible."
She was not talking nonsense. This was really what Aunt Liu said.
Baili Feiyang became anxious and asked Qingfeng to turn the carriage around.
"Qingfeng turned around and went to Liujia Village."
"No, second brother, why are you going to Liujia Village?"
Avoiding her sister's gossipy look, she said with a blush.
"Second brother really likes Miss Liu, and he doesn't want to miss such a good girl, okay?"
"You little girl, all you do all day is laugh at your second brother."
In Liujia Village, Baili Feiyang found Liu Piaoxu first.
