All Chapters of Red Wedding: Princess of Rebirth: Chapter 371 - Chapter 380

Xi was appointed to serve the emperor after Mo Junyu took the throne, and his job was mainly to send messages.The other eunuchs admired Xi as he got such a good job, but only he knew the sorrow.He was so scared that he almost wet himself.At the same time, he was frightened and didn’t dare to stutter.He answered fluently, “Your Majesty, Lady Qingxue asked to see you.”Speak of the devil.Mo Junyu glanced at Mo Junyang meaningfully, in a better mood. “Let her in.”Shi Qingxue walked in with Xi. There was surprise flashing in her eyes obviously when she saw Mo Junyang, but soon she restrained it.She walked forward and greeted Mo Junyu with a bow, “Your Majesty, I am honored to see you.”“Qingxue, don’t stand on ceremony.” Mo Junyu gently told her to get up.His smile was so bright that it made Shi Qingxue have a chill on her spine. She looked at

Mo Junyang had managed his force for many years, and it couldn’t be underestimated.He didn’t want to fight for the throne. Otherwise, it was uncertain who would rule the country in the end.If he wanted to investigate what happened in Jiangzhou, which was kept secret by Mo Junyu all the time, it was merely a matter of time.He got some information after ten days.It turned out that the epidemic in Jiangzhou was more than the epidemic.After a storm in the lunar sixth month, there was a flood in Jiangzhou, and almost more than half of the city was drowned, yet the government embezzled all the disaster relief grain sent by the imperial court because the new emperor didn’t have time to consider the remote areas when he took the throne. They didn’t help the sufferers settle down but drove the victims away from their jurisdiction.Even the messenger who reported it didn’t know where the spreading epidem

Two days later, Mo Junyang and Shi Qingxue went out of the south gate of the city in the carriage with Wei Zichao and his brother as well as Dong Shuang and several guards, heading to Jiangzhou in the south.Mo Junyang and Shi Qingxue were certainly sitting in the carriage. Because they went on a simple trip, the carriage was not luxurious but merely comfortable.However, the two people in the carriage had suffered a lot, so they wouldn’t dislike it but were satisfied with such an arrangement.Shi Qingxue bent over the window of the carriage and looked at the bright sun in summer outside, saying with a smile, “Junyang, we go out in this way. Is it like to travel?”When she went on a long journey last time, she went to Qingluo Mountain alone to save her father and brother one year ago.Although the way ahead was unknown, compared with her anxiety when she went to Qingluo Mountain, she was relaxed and free this ti

Shi Qingxue and the other two rode fast horses, and it would take less than half of the time to Jiangzhou.At night next day, they had reached a small town near Jiangzhou City.This small town was only about thirty-five kilometers far away from Jiangzhou City, and if they urged the fast horses, they could enter the city in three hours.However, they decided to stay in the small town for a night. Firstly, they had plenty of time, and it was unnecessary to push themselves so hard. Secondly, it was not early now, and if they moved on a little slowly, the city gate might be closed. If they didn’t want to reveal their identity, they had to stay in the wildness for one night.The last point was the most important. They didn’t know anything about the situation in Jiangzhou City, and they’d better inquire everything clearly and enter the city at dawn tomorrow.The three came to the only hotel in the small town. Because

“I have to start with the late emperor’s death two months ago...” The waiter in the hotel started the conversation and talked vividly.“Before his death, it had been raining heavily for one month successively in Jiangzhou City. It was a calamity that we haven’t seen in the past one thousand years.“In the beginning, all people lived a hard life till the news of the late emperor’s death came. It seemed that God felt sad for him, and the rain was more horrible. The Ganjiang River in Jiangzhou couldn’t bear it but burst its banks.“After all, Ganjiang River is a great river. As it burst its banks, less than half of the city was drowned, and the low-lying areas became oceans. The luckier ones fled and became refugees, while the unfortunate ones were swallowed by the flood and their dead bodies couldn’t be found.”When the waiter talked about the flood in Jiangzhou, he seemed to tell a romaunt and got more excited while speaking.
