"It's not that your highness can't reach it, it's just that your highness …" "Not worthy."

Su Jinruo's voice was light and elegant, with not the slightest bit of lethality.

Hearing that, Shen Fan did not get angry, but laughed, and poured a cup of tea for Su Jinruo, and passed it to him.

"It is passed down in the world... City Lord Su had adored and admired Ninth Prince Shen Fan for a long time, so it seemed like this wasn't necessarily true … At least, City Lord Su favors other men, not me. "

"It's just a rumor, why would you believe it?" Su Jinruo received the cup with both hands and laughed:

"Compared to the Seventh Prince, Your Highness is indeed … The difference between cloud and mud is a fact, is there a need for this official to lie? "

In terms of acting, how could she, Su Jinruo, lose to someone who sees her as a person?

The smile on Shen Fan's face instantly retracted, and then bloomed again.

"Since City Lord Su thinks that there is a difference of clouds and mud between Seventh Brother and I. Or did you board my carriage? "

Su Jinruo looked at him and took a sip of his tea.

She said: "What Seventh Prince drinks is wine, while what this lowly official drinks is tea. The intrinsic difference is... This is the reason why this official has chosen you, your highness. "

The meaning behind his words was … The paths were different, completely unrelated to each other.

"But," Shen Fan slightly raised her pretty eyebrows, "City Lord Su is not afraid, this tea … "Is it poisonous?"

Su Jinruo smiled, "Your highness doesn't dare."

That's right …

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't dare to.

If the person he invited were to die in his carriage, wouldn't that mean …

Was he announcing to the world that he was the one who killed the man?!

Heh.

The man in front of him had really made a good plan.

On the surface, although he said that he wasn't on good terms with the Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng, no one knew what kind of agreement he had secretly reached.

Along the way to Ling An, he seemed to be borrowing a carriage to sit in, but in reality, he was handing over his own safety to Mo Wuji, allowing himself to shoulder the burden of Mo Wuji's safety. He firmly tied Mo Wuji to himself.

His goal, or perhaps even … Monitoring and protection.

Watching his every move, he didn't want to give him the chance to cause a ruckus...

Protect Shen Hancheng and him, they might have already planned this beforehand … Conspiracy.

Shen Fan smiled as before, but in his deep eyes, there was a trace of undetectable viciousness.

He lightly said: "City Lord Su is indeed intelligent. I like to interact with people like him the most, because … When City Lord Su's soul returns to the sky, I will feel especially accomplished. "

"If you think too much of perverted thoughts, you will become perverted. This official will definitely not let someone as ruthless and merciless as Prince …" "If you wish, you will be rewarded."

Two pairs of eyes … They looked at each other in the air.

A pair of smile like the wind, hidden with a bloodthirsty camouflage, a pair of apathetic slightly cool, the bottom of the eyes dizzy vicious evil.

After a while, Shen Fan retracted his gaze, focused on Su Jinruo's delicate and pretty face, and said:

"That's for the best."

Just like the night when they travelled together, Su Jinruo traveled all the way to Jiangshui Road (Ling'an Prefecture).

Ever since the Ganshui Road, the victims could be seen again and again.

The few of them rode in carriages, but were surrounded by the victims, unable to get a single drop of water out.

Hearing the words of the person in the carriage, Qian Yijian frowned.

The surrounding people were all thin and yellow faced, and they constantly shouted … Giving something to eat.

Their eyes were fixed on the carriage, tightly surrounding it.

He hoped, he hoped, that the people in the carriage would be able to solve their problem.

Su Jinruo opened up a corner of the carriage curtain and looked out.

The refugees suffering from the water disaster kept getting closer to their cars.

Shen Fan's guards, on the other hand, were unmoved. They did not drive them away, nor did they allow them to get too close to the carriage.

Since his master didn't say anything, he definitely wouldn't do anything …

and... It was not their responsibility to take care of the refugees at the moment.

There is no cure, as long as the water pollution is well treated, refugees will not appear again.

Su Jinruo once again put down the curtain. The youth in white still had a warm smile on his face.

The expression in her eyes did not change as she unintentionally opened her mouth and said:

"The refugees from Ling'an have arrived at the Ganshui Road, and the county magistrate... However, it seemed as if he didn't have any intentions of accepting them and just let them do as they pleased … If you do not give me any kindness, does Your Highness know why?! "

Shen Fan looked at her, and said without any other meaning:

"How does City Lord Su know that the County Magistrate of Ganshui Road didn't do anything … a move to accept the common people! "

"Can't the people outside this carriage say anything?"

Su Jinruo, are you still a little too inexperienced?

In the current Ranqi, there weren't many corrupt officials.

Yes... However, the distribution was too obvious, especially to the Prime Minister Su, who already made up the civil and military ministers of the court.

The imperial power was being divided up too severely, but the atmosphere of the Ranqi was still not bad.

Otherwise, based on this flood … How could Ling An's county magistrate report such a great disaster to the imperial government?

Since they dared to report it, there was no possibility of them not making amends. Otherwise …

If that wasn't the case, then it was … Was he slapping himself in the face, or taking off his head?

Shen Fan looked at Su Jinruo and smiled faintly.

Su Jinruo looked at Shen Fan and asked:

"Does Your Highness think that this official asked a foolish question?"

"City Lord Su is indeed aware of himself."

"Actually, this official didn't have any other intentions, I just felt that …"

Su Jinruo said with a gentle and handsome face, "Even though Your Highness had retired for more than two years, he still knows everything about the court, including the matters outside, I do not know … In the present Emperor, after your Royal Father knows about it, will he be pleased? "

She did not know much about Shen Fan.

After all, she was not a person of this dynasty. Back then, she had chosen Ninth Prince Shen Fan … As she had rejected Princess Xiwei's refusal, she had her eyes on him … He is a gentleman of modesty.

But who would have thought …

Everything about him was a disguise.

Since that was the case, she might as well test him herself and investigate his background.

What he had just asked was only one of the tests.

Two years.

Officials in the imperial court, not to mention two years out of the imperial court, even two days out of the imperial court was enough to change everything …

For example …

She herself.

Last time she and Shen Hancheng had jumped off the cliff, and right above the imperial court, although there hadn't been much change, but in reality … There had been some slight changes.

Noble Consort Xiang almost slipped off his dragon head as he fell to the ground.

The Old Emperor was furious and sealed the place where Noble Consort Xiang had fallen in one go, not allowing anyone to get close.

A portion of the officials in the imperial court fell to the side of the Prime Minister Su.

Coupled with... This time, she was recommended as the Minister of Water Management by the Prime Minister Su, and there were not many voices of protest in the imperial court.

She was just a fifth rank minister, you know.

But now, he could take on such a heavy responsibility. This … It was change!

This change was something that Shen Fan had to endure after leaving the imperial court for more than two years.

Yet, he still knew everything that happened in the imperial court. What did this mean …

The gossip from two years ago, was it because others could not tolerate him, or … Was this a trap he had set on purpose?

Shen Fan remained silent. He stared straight at Su Jinruo for a long while, and finally laughed:

"City Lord Su, could it be that Seventh Brother didn't teach you, that in the imperial court … The smarter a person is, the faster he'll die?! "

Su Jinruo laughed, "This is a principle that Seventh Prince has never taught this official, but Seventh Prince did say one sentence, I do not know if Your Highness … "Would you like to hear it?"

Shen Fan looked at her, then said: "Seventh Prince said before, on the field, whoever laughs the happier, who …. "The faster I die, the faster I die."

Shen Fan was a smiling face tiger, even if someone slapped him a few times, he could still smile like a peach blossom.

Su Jinruo's words were true... Poking him in the ribs.

Sure enough, after hearing Su Jinruo's words … There was still a faint smile on his lips. However, his pitch-black eyes narrowed slightly.

Sure enough, people who were with Shen Hancheng, were always disliked and looked forward to by others, all they wanted was for him to be destroyed, wouldn't that be?

Some people were destined to be superfluous in this beautiful world, even if the other party was so smart that they wanted them to take them in …

The two of them walked back and forth, the refugees outside … He had already ran towards the relief porridge mentioned in the Ganshui Road County Order and left one by one.

The carriage began to move again, and it slowly regained its original speed.

Finally, after another night of traveling, they arrived at Ling An before the sky gradually brightened.

Su Jinruo got off the carriage, and Shen Hancheng just got off too.

The two of them looked at each other, Su Jinruo cupped his hands and bowed to him, Shen Hancheng's exceptional handsome face did not have much emotion on it, no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

At this time, Shen Fan, holding the Night Pearl in his hand, also stepped down from the carriage.

The atmosphere suddenly turned strange. Three people who were not in the pond … Just who was his opponent?

Shen Fan looked at Shen Hancheng, and then looked at Su Jinruo, and said indifferently:

"City Lord Su, shall we survey the terrain first, or... First, let's meet up with the parents here and discuss the current situation. "

Su Jinruo's eyes moved slightly as he said: "We'll go and deliver them first, then we'll go and take a look at the refugees."

The fact that Ling An's refugees had landed on the Ganshui Road meant that... There were too many refugees in Ling'an.

And Ling An's County Command, it was very obvious … They could not afford to feed the refugees.

The climate of Ling'an was very hot in summer and very cold in winter. It was the climate of the south.

It was currently the beginning of summer, and their crops were harvesting well in the first season. However, they were completely washed away by the flood and had all the energy they needed to maintain their lives.

The efficiency of Ling An's food delivery was always among the best in Ranqi.

Naturally, there had been floods before, but they were not as powerful as this one.

The commoners of Ling'an were completely unprepared. They were originally happy for the harvest, but now …

It was likely that the mental gap between the two of them was not that small.

At that moment, calming people's hearts was actually the first priority. After that, it was encouraging, and it was also a key to controlling the flood.

As they walked, the group saw the raging waves of the flood that filled the land.
