Chapter 496 The important thing that was forgotten before
Chapter 496 The important things that I forgot before
When they arrived at the main courtyard, the eldest princess and Du Fu were both there.
The two of them sat on one kang, and there was a little kid hiding from the other side.
The two of them were teasing the child while chatting about the Tang family.
There has been few people talking about the cancellation of Qin Yuyu's wedding. Tang Zhixing survived unexpectedly, but he was lying on the bed and couldn't even get out of bed.
Everyone knows that this marriage cannot continue.
Du Wan quickly got on the kang, "Dad, mother, how about the elder brother?"
"Look at it for yourself." Du Gongma handed her the letter.
Du Wan took it and opened it, "Dad, don't you have to go to the yamen?"
"No need, you can rest."
Originally, the yamen should have had a holiday earlier, but it was busy with official business and the disasters were constantly ongoing. The emperor was staring at him, and the officials in the yamen had to work overtime, and everyone complained.
In the past, these officials in Beijing were either pampered and lived a favorable life. The emperor didn't treat them as human beings, and he wanted to work until he vomited blood.
Du Wan opened her eyes and finished reading one by one.
This is the first letter from home written by Du Qian, which has several pages of paper. The disaster described on it is not very optimistic. It will take him a while to come back. At the same time, he also said that he may not be able to go home for the New Year.
Du Wan complained, "The emperor's uncle is really right. There are so many officials in the court, why do you have to ask your elder brother to go to provide disaster relief?"
"There are many officials, but your uncle can't trust much. This time he doesn't want to be greedy for a penny. Think about it, there is really no one in the court except your elder brother." Du Fu Madam was also not very satisfied with the emperor's decision.
Since Du Fuma Du became an official, he has rarely participated in matters in the clan.
Du Qian was the next patriarch who was appointed by the inner court and could not become an official.
Due to the eldest princess, he could have a title and become a free prince. But it depends on the emperor's current intention and insisted on attracting his family to be a cow and horse.
Du Fuma looked at his daughter who was still ignorant and unknown, and sighed in his heart. The emperor was not a human being, and he didn't even let his daughter go. He actually asked her to make money for him at a young age. He probably wanted to train her into a money bag. But this girl didn't realize this, and he couldn't expose it for a while.
Du Wan really didn't know her father's entanglement, so she read the letter again.
"Wanwan, have your entertainment newspaper stopped?" Du Fuma said suddenly.
Du Wan looked up and asked in confusion: "There will be the last issue before the New Year. Why did you suddenly ask?"
The eldest princess suddenly laughed and said, "It's probably because he heard of something strange, so he will provide you with gossip materials."
"What strange thing?" Du Wan came to the sacred as soon as she heard this.
Du Fuma Du pondered for a moment and said, "Today there is a place outside the city, and a large number of snakes appeared on the road. Isn't this winter very weird?"
"Confirm." Snakes usually hibernate.
Du Wan looked at Du Fu Madam Du, and his expression was not as simple as just talking about gossip.
Du Fuma said again: "Not only that, I also heard that some dogs raised by my colleagues have been very irritable since last night, and so are those in our mansion."
"this--"
Du Wan's heart shrank suddenly.
Yes, it's not a good thing!
grass!
She had been thinking before, as if she had forgotten something important.
Yes, it's a very important thing!
earthquake!
That day in the peach forest in the suburbs, she clearly thought about it, but somehow she forgot about it. Du Wan slapped her forehead and said, "Father, I'm afraid there will be an earthquake."
"Earthquake?" Du Fuma was stunned.
Du Wan said anxiously, "The earth moves, the earth dragon turns over."
The eldest princess was shocked, "Wanwan, don't talk nonsense."
"I didn't say nonsense." Du Wan didn't know how to convince her for a moment, "Didn't my father feel it long ago? This phenomenon will definitely not be the first time."
"You are sure." Du Fu Madam Du stared at her and asked.
Du Wan rubbed her face, "What are you sure about? Has the earth dragon turned over in the Qin Dynasty? Is there any phenomenon a few days before every earthquake? Animals are more sensitive than humans and can detect the arrival of disaster in advance."
The eldest princess and Du Prince Du were both silent.
It is also recorded in historical books, including the Du family’s classics.
Du Wan said again: "It's only been two or three days, parents, we must be prepared."
"Okay." Du Fuma immediately put on his boots and "go to the palace for his father."
After leaving this sentence, he took a leather cloak and hurried out. While walking, he asked Du Liu to send people to inform the clan quickly.
The clan shouldn't know now, otherwise he wouldn't have told him.
Du Wan's scalp was numb when she thought of an earthquake. You should know that the earthquake in the book was not light. It is described that some places were covered with landslides and cracks, with countless casualties.
Didn't stay for too long.
Du Wan left the main courtyard and went directly to meet Uncle Su. When she went there, she saw other people from the Su family. Su Che was also present, "I have met the princess, so I pay my respects to the princess."
"Okay, no need."
Du Wan interrupted their salute and immediately said to Mr. Su, "You go and write a manuscript immediately, it is a natural phenomenon and an earthquake is coming."
"Princess, is this true?!"
The Su family present was surprised.
God, will you still let people live?
Su Che's heart was also shocked, "Father, go and write quickly, I'll grind the ink for you."
"Okay." Mr. Su went to find paper and pen.
The whole family was sitting on the kang, but it was not cold.
Seeing that Du Wan had not left, she silently gave her a seat.
Su's mother came over and took over Su Che's work of polishing ink.
Su Che went to pour Du Wan a cup of tea. The tea leaves were rewarded by Du Fu before. Du Wan thought about it and took it.
Su Che asked softly: "Princess, are you going to report the house when you have finished writing the manuscript?"
"Yes. This matter is urgent." Du Wan glanced at him, but did not hide it.
The next time it became quiet, Su Che wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak.
Du Wan looked down at the tea in the back, with green leaves floating on it, which was a top-notch tea. "My father is willing to give you the tea he loves to drink."
"The prince-consort is a good person." Su Che said a word from a panacea.
Du Wan smiled, "That's right, my family is all good people."
Su Che: "..."
A quarter of an hour later.
Uncle Su wrote the first draft, Du Wan read it, pointed out a few places to be modified, and copied it again. She took it and left hurriedly.
The Su family was left silent for a while.
Su Mu broke the silence, "What should I do if the earth dragon turns over?"
"There should be instructions in the mansion, we can do as we do." Mr. Su whispered.
Su Che said: "Father, you have to tell me about my second uncle's house. In addition, it is best to clean up all the important things, so that everyone may stay outside the house at that time."
"How could you live outside in such a cold day?"
"But it's better to be colder than to be dead."
