The walnut is tiny, floating on the water. Gu Nanyi’s slender figure rises and falls with it, but neither tilts nor tilts. His blue clothes float in the sea breeze like flowing clouds, and the morning sunlight Hitting his shoulder, his whole body glowed with light aqua brilliance, like a warm jade statue. He stretched out his fingers, and the rays of light falling on his fingertips shone brightly like diamonds.
The people of the South China Sea had never seen such a character and grace. For a moment, they forgot to do long-distance arm throwing exercises, and opened their mouths wide, thinking they saw a **** descending.
The eyes of ten thousand people fall on one person. If it were someone else, he would be a bit confused about how to move his hands and feet. However, Master Gu has always been a scumbag except for Feng Zhiwei. He didn’t rush and stretched out his hand, and he had more hands. A basket.
Basket.
More than ten thousand people opened their mouths so wide that they drooled without even realizing it – it was scary enough for this man to come across the sea riding a walnut, but it was completely terrifying to come across the sea riding a walnut and carrying a basket on his back. Breaking through the image of a fairy.
Well, actually, although I have never seen an immortal carrying a basket across the sea, it seems to be quite beautiful.
The fairy took out the magic basket and slowly followed the walnuts floating in the sea, flying down one by one. Wherever he passed, there were edible vegetables, eggs, dried fish, crabs, etc., and he picked them up in a basket.
More than ten thousand people opened their mouths and said “ah”, and a thunderstorm rolled up on the pier – it turned out to be a fairy who crossed the sea riding a walnut basket on his back to collect rags.
Master Gu walked around along the walnut road and put all the food he could see in the basket. When he was done, he quickly skimmed the sea and took back all the walnuts – they couldn’t be wasted, they were walnuts.
The arc of his flight was graceful, and his phoenix-like body splashed across the sea surface with light blue water waves. Tens of thousands of people all let out dazzled sighs.
Master Gu had no idea that he had performed a stunt for the people of Nanhai that they would never forget until their death. He only focused on completing Feng Zhiwei’s mission, flew back to the ship with the basket, and handed it to Feng Zhiwei.
Feng Zhi took it with a smile, and then the corner of his mouth twitched – Mr. Gu didn’t distinguish between good and bad vegetables when buying them, he wanted them as long as they were in the water in front of him, so there were rotten vegetables, smelly shoe uppers, and a pile under the water in the basket The unlucky jellyfish swimming around.
She threw the inedible food back into the sea and said with a smile, “I’ll let you try my craft today.” She said a few more words to Gu Nanyi.
Master Gu stood on the side of the ship. All the people had already forgotten their purpose of coming and what they were going to do, and they all looked up at him.
“Your Highness said that the people of Nanhai are so rich.” Young Master Gu dryly relayed Feng Zhiwei’s words. He seemed to have a low voice, but once he spoke, tens of thousands of people could hear him clearly.
Feng Zhiwei saw with clairvoyance that the Chief Minister Zhou, who had been reading a book in the crowd, finally put down his book and raised his head.
“The Chief Envoy of the South China Sea petitioned the imperial court a few days ago, saying that the South China Sea was affected by the disaster and the grain production was reduced, and requested the court to provide relief.” Gu Nanyi had an excellent memory and recited every word, “The imperial envoy came and also experienced the disaster in the South China Sea. When necessary, they opened warehouses to store grain and planned to reduce taxes. Now when they arrived in the South China Sea, they collected five kilograms of dried fish, ten crabs, and some dried vegetables and eggs. It can be seen that the common people in the South China Sea are not in danger of running out of food. The thought of being hit by a disaster is false. Taxes are naturally unnecessary.”
More than ten thousand people said “Ah” again and turned back to glare at the government officials.
The Nanhai officials looked at each other, and Zhou Xizhong stood up.
“Your Highness said, I don’t understand why the people of Nanhai are so wasteful of food?” Gu Nanyi continued to memorize, “His Royal Highness left the capital all the way and passed through the three provinces of Jianghuai, Longxi, and Longnan to the border of Nanhai. In addition to the land of fish and rice in Jianghuai, which can provide enough food and clothing, Longxi This year’s severe drought has affected people in three places. Mountain floods in Longnan have cut off roads. People in seven counties are still without food and clothing. Tens of thousands of people are crying for food. Countless hungry people live on the road. Your Highness has opened warehouses to release grain all the way, but it still cannot fully relieve the people’s danger. It is helpless. Your Majesty, all members of the Imperial Guard have reduced their rice supplies and are providing disaster relief along the way. Even Your Highness has stopped eating vegetables, just to save one more mouthful and save one more life. I didn’t expect to arrive at the South China Sea today and see thousands of people greeting each other with dried fish. This was really too grand. His Highness thought about the suffering of hunger and cold of the people in Longxi and Southwest and did not dare to waste it, so he thanked his father for the gift and used it for cooking.”
The roars of the people in Nanhai became lowered and they looked at each other. They never expected that the imperial envoy would actually collect vegetables to eat and say such words. Zhou Xizhong stood there upright with a gloomy expression.
“Your Highness thanked the elders for the gift, and dared to ask the elders of Nanhai – we are all citizens of the world. Some people wander on the road and complain of hunger and cold, while some despise food and fish meat and turn them into mud. Don’t you feel that it is harmful to heaven and earth? Don’t you feel guilty in your heart?”
There was some uneasy commotion in the crowd. When the principles that they thought were just were completely overturned, and they suddenly became unreasonable troublemakers, everyone felt confused. In addition, everyone has a heart of compassion. Listening to the suffering of the people in Longxi and Longnan We are all common people and feel the same pain. We also feel that the words of the imperial envoy are really special and touching. They are much more real than those imperial envoys who used to speak all the official language. Most people became quiet and looked a little ashamed.
He Lianzheng looked at Ning Yi and Feng Zhiwei with his mouth wide open – it is true that Longxi and Longnan were affected by the disaster, but it seems that one of you drank bird’s nest soup and the other ate the tortoise’s legs yesterday, right? Who doesn’t want to eat vegetables?
The Han people, the Han people… are so scary.
“And I would like to ask the officials at all levels in the South China Sea – reporting disasters when there are no disasters, reporting lack of food when there is food, deceiving superiors and hiding from subordinates, and ignoring the power of God. Don’t you feel ashamed to treat the imperial envoys who came from afar to provide disaster relief? No. Do you feel ashamed of His Majesty who is working so hard in the imperial capital to plan and save the South China Sea disaster?”
With this sentence, Master Gu followed Feng Zhiwei’s prompts and raised his voice. Unfortunately, the tone was still flat and could not have the shocking effect. Fortunately, the words themselves had their own power, and the group of Nanhai officials were obviously in commotion.
“We will be here today to eat the food given by the people before disembarking.” It was the first time in his life that Master Gu had said so many words. He was already impatient and made a final declaration to 10,000 people dryly, “And invite Lord Zhou, the imperial envoy of Nanhai, boarded the ship to eat this food that cannot be wasted. The government has the duty of educating people. The people of Nanhai do not understand the value of food, so it is up to the imperial envoy and the government of Nanhai to set an example. His Highness will personally serve chopsticks, and Lord Wei will I cooked the food myself and invited Mr. Zhou to come on board to light the fire.”
