Xiaoyu rushed over, put on a coir raincoat and bamboo hat for Qin Zhao, and advised: "Girl, it's better not to go, it's dangerous over there at Nanba."
"The South Dam cannot burst, I must go there."
After Qin Zhao finished speaking, she stopped riding in the carriage. She sat directly on the front of the carriage and directed everyone to go to Nanba.
After taking a good nap before, she felt much lighter.
I just hope she can rush over there in time...
Over at Nanba, the situation is very chaotic.
Originally, many officers and soldiers were blocking the gap with sandbags, but the current above was too strong. One soldier failed to stand properly and was suddenly swept away by the rapid current.
This incident caught everyone off guard. Some people tried to save others, but they themselves were swept away. The sandbags failed to block it, and the gap became wider and wider.
At this time, it started raining heavily again, and the situation became even more critical.
Zhao Yu knew that once this gap was opened, the people living downstream of Nanba would be displaced and suffer numerous casualties. No matter what the cost, this gap must be blocked.
At this time, he cannot be messy.
After regaining his composure, he personally moved the sandbags and said loudly: "Don't panic, everyone must hold still. We must block this gap. Think of the people below Nanba, hold still!"
When Wu Zhong saw this scene, his blood was also aroused.
Everyone no longer stood aside. All the officers and soldiers came out and moved the sandbags together.
But the number of sandbags was not enough. Just when he was nervous, Qin Zhao came with more than a dozen carts of sandbags.
At this time, Zhao Yu was wet all over and he was in a terrible state, but what surprised him even more was that Qin Zhao came regardless of the danger.
She was a weak-minded girl with such a bad health that she came to help with so many sandbags.
Speaking of which, he used to look down on Qin Zhao, thinking that Qin Zhao was a merchant's daughter, and coupled with her greed for money, she was very philistine. It happened that this woman he looked down on before brought reinforcements and sandbags at the critical moment.
After Qin Zhao got off the cart, he directed everyone to transport sandbags in an orderly manner.
Little did she know that not far behind her, there was a pair of men's eyes staring at her.
When all the breaches were blocked, the rain also slowed down.
Qin Zhao was still worried. As long as the water level rose, the gap would not be completely blocked.
After about half an hour of busy work, the rain stopped completely and the water level stopped rising. Soon after, the sun came out and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Zhao's tight strings relaxed.
At this moment, she realized that her whole body was sore and uncomfortable.
She swayed and was about to fall to the ground, but the soldier closest to her caught her in time.
The man's face became blurry and blurred in front of her, until she lost consciousness and still thought that she seemed to be hallucinating because she seemed to see Wang An.
Qin Zhao suddenly fainted, causing many people to panic.
No one knew her true identity and thought she was the concubine brought by Zhao Yu from Kyoto.
At this time, Zhao Yu also came ashore. He was soaked all over. He went to Qin Zhao and looked down at the pale Qin Zhao from above. At this moment, her eyes were closed tightly, her lips were white, and her face was covered with rainwater.
"I'll take her back." Zhao Yu stepped forward and picked up the unconscious Qin Zhao.
Zhao Yu took Qin Zhao with him and left Nanba on a cart.
After making sure they were far away, the man in soldier's uniform raised his head and looked at the direction Qin Zhao left, thoughtfully.
As far as he knew, Zhao Yu did not have a concubine. In that case, who was this woman who suddenly appeared?
Zhao Yu looked at her with a complicated expression just now, which meant that Zhao Yu knew that woman.
If she wasn't Zhao Yu's concubine and was a close acquaintance of Zhao Yu, who could it be?
If nothing else, this woman has the courage of a man. At the critical moment just now, she had the air of a general, commanding everyone to move the sandbags in an orderly manner.
If it weren't for this woman, the South Dam would have burst.
The man looked at the embankment that was tightly blocked by sandbags, and his eyes gradually darkened...
Qin Zhao was sent back to the city. After Xiaoyu changed Qin Zhao into a set of dry clothes, the doctor went in to check Qin Zhao's pulse.
"The girl's body is delicate. In addition, she was exposed to rain and moisture entered her body before, so she had a fever and fainted. Now she needs to reduce the fever. As long as she no longer has a fever, I prescribed a prescription and she will be cured after a few days of conditioning according to the prescription." The doctor said.
Report the situation to Zhao Yu.
"The doctor must cure her as soon as possible." Zhao Yu said seriously.
Qin Zhao has a special status. If she has any shortcomings, he cannot explain it to His Royal Highness.
This time the South Dam burst, Qin Zhao made a great contribution, which he had never expected before.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have known that the delicate Qin Zhao actually had such a side.
Under the doctor's command, Xiaoyu stayed in front of the bed, undressed and helping Qin Zhao lower his fever. After working for about two hours, Qin Zhao's body temperature gradually returned to normal.
After the heat dissipated, Qin Zhao also regained consciousness. The moment she opened her eyes, she thought she was still in Nanba. She wanted to ask if the breach of Nanba was blocked, but her voice was hoarse.
At this time, Zhao Yu's face magnified in front of her: "Don't worry, the embankment breach is blocked. You have done a great job this time, and the people are very grateful for your efforts."
Qin Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that Nanba is fine."
"The doctor said you need to take good care of yourself for a few days before you can fully recover. The medicine will be ready soon. You drink the medicine and then sleep for a while after eating." Zhao Yu's voice was rare and gentle.
To be precise, he has never tried to speak so gently in his life.
Qin Zhao felt something was wrong before, but now when she heard Zhao Yu speak, she couldn't help complaining: "Can you speak normally?"
She was not used to Zhao Yu like this. Although she had a cold, she would not be intimidated by him if he raised his voice.
Zhao Yu's face suddenly turned cold: "I'm just talking normally now."
I have never seen such a dishonest woman.
"Then you'd better stop talking normally. I get goosebumps when I hear it. By the way, I know you are a busy man. You go and do your business. I don't need you to take care of me here." Qin Zhao said very clearly.
Zhao Yu's face turned dark and he became angry instantly: "Do you think I want to take care of you?!"
"Of course you don't want to take care of me, so you go and do your business. The people of Changzhou need you more." Qin Zhao said and lay down and decided to sleep for a while.
And she closed her eyes and fell asleep soon, leaving Zhao Yu with nowhere to vent his anger.
Except for Wu Xiyu, no woman has ever dared to show off her face to him. How could Qin Zhao dare to be so rude to him?
But he soon remembered that Qin Zhao was not only his second cousin, but also the concubine of His Royal Highness. From now on, he would be three points shorter in front of Qin Zhao.
At this moment, he was relieved.
He was about to leave, then stepped forward to look at Qin Zhao, and when he met her thin face, he fixed his eyes.
