Chapter 164 Arrival in Xuancheng



As soon as they entered the courtyard, large raindrops began to fall.

The team arranged things in an orderly manner.

Li Chi settled Lie Yan and the carriage, then untied Lie Yan's reins to let it roam freely.

Other plainclothes guards carried their luggage inside.

While we're at it, let's thoroughly inspect the entire estate.

Ah-hao directed people to clean the house.

Lay out a soft bed for Murong Yue.

Under Master Ji's guidance, Li Daniu boiled hot water for ginger tea for everyone.

"The rain is too heavy, don't go out to buy food."

Murong Yue looked at the small streams gathering on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the rainwater in the village turned into gurgling streams.

It flows away along the drainage ditch at the base of the wall.

"Yes, Master."

"Luckily we traveled some distance on the road, otherwise we would be stuck on the road now."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Ah Hao massaged Murong Yue's shoulders.

In Xuancheng, there are several heavy rains every summer.

People are used to it.

However, Cui Yixiang still dared not be careless.

He ordered that patrols be increased.

There are no large rivers near Xuancheng, only two small ones.

The swelling of the river wasn't particularly dangerous.

However, the main mountain range is in the Cloud Kingdom.

Even in the sweltering summer, you can still see the emerald white snow-capped peaks of the mountains.

It is evident that Mount Maling is very high.

One year, after a torrential rain, a strange flood broke out in Malingshan.

The water was murky and black, and contained many stones.

Like locusts.

The retired emperor said it was a mudslide.

It is extremely destructive.

Cui Yixiang watched as a mudslide silently swallowed up a village in the Yue Kingdom.

Humans are insignificant in the face of nature.

He kept the Emperor Emeritus's words firmly in mind.

I dare not relax every summer and autumn.

"This rain is unusually heavy; increase patrols."

"Make preparations for the relocation of the people."

"Yes, sir."

Yan Qinghe kept his eyes fixed on the city gate.

As soon as Lieyan entered the city, he knew that Murong Yue had arrived.
