Chapter 153 The Road to Survival

Since Huo Mingliang saved his life and his broken arm sprouted new flesh, he was thrown into building a dam.

After all, he was missing an arm, so he couldn't dig gravel and soil, so he had to carry rocks. At the end of the day, the skin on the back of this once delicate prince was worn out, and the blood seeped into the linen clothes and stuck to his back. He turned pale in pain.

The three multi-grain steamed buns and two bowls of porridge that were so clear that you could count the grains of rice were distributed that day. It was only because of the supervisor that they were not snatched away.

When he was brought here, the guards told the female officer who oversaw the work that this man could not die, otherwise he would not survive three days on the dam construction site, and he would die not of exhaustion but of starvation.

In order to keep Huo Mingliang alive, a medical officer would check his pulse every once in a while. If the skin on his back was worn away, he would be given the best sore medicine. If he fainted, there would be pills to treat him. In short, he would be sure to keep the other person alive. .

Huo Mingliang felt that he was the unluckiest time traveler in history. He clearly had a good hand, but something went wrong and he fell into this situation, especially when he wanted to be lazy, the supervisor woman's whip It will fall on him mercilessly.

The other party also looked at him with a hint of disgust, and once even said clearly:

"If the Queen hadn't wanted you alive, as long as I told these people who came to do the corvee work that you were the murderer of the Queen, you would have died with no bones left. Put away the superiority in your eyes, and now you are a prisoner."

Then a whip was whipped hard on Huo Mingliang's face, causing his face to swell up that day and taking away the few bones he had.

From then on, Huo Mingliang learned to be patient, he just bent down and carried the stone, and no longer dared to show any sign of looking down on women. He still wanted to live.

Just when the three-month corvee period was coming to an end, the weather was not kind and it began to rain one after another, and it rained endlessly for half a month, causing floods. Fortunately, the section of the embankment they built has been completed. Otherwise, they would have to do hard labor in the heavy rain.

Huo Mingliang had read a book and remembered a passage in the book, because Fengqi State was the most severely affected by the floods. Many people were killed and injured in those flooded cities. Because the rescue was not timely, a plague broke out later, and this year The autumn harvest was also very dismal. The people handed over the grain, but there was almost no food in stock, and many people starved to death.

The Panlong Kingdom, Xuanwu Kingdom, and White Tiger Kingdom took the opportunity to take action and proposed to exchange food for cities. They were also smart. They wanted to exchange for the disaster-stricken cities, and said that they would resettle the affected people.

The queen had passed away at that time, and the two princesses were fighting fiercely. There was no real person in charge, and they couldn't come up with any good solutions. They had to accept this condition, which at least could reduce the burden on Fengqi Kingdom.

But it was these two people's behavior that made them lose the support of the people. Just imagine that when you are in the most difficult time, you are dumped like a blame. No one can accept it.

Moreover, since this gap was opened, it was out of control. The three kingdoms used various excuses to start encroaching on Fengqi Kingdom. In the end, the struggle between the eldest princess and the second princess could be said to be a lose-lose situation, and both lost the chance to inherit the throne. Let the third princess who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun come to power, and the results can be imagined.

Even with the dedicated assistance of veterans, Fengqi Country still could not stop the trend of decadence. In the end, Fengqi Country became a vassal state of Panlong Kingdom and slowly merged into Panlong Kingdom's territory.

However, after he traveled through time, he seemed to have made a bad move. Not only did he not gain the trust of the Third Princess, he also narrowly escaped death and was trapped in Fengqi Country.

Moreover, the queen is not dead, she is alive and well now, and even captured five cities in Panlong Kingdom one after another. This is completely different from what he read in the book.

Huo Mingliang thought about it and came to only one conclusion: his intervention changed the original trajectory of the story, which is why he ended up in this situation today.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was right, but he was the one who suffered now. He no longer expected to use Fengqi Kingdom as a stepping stone to take back Panlong Kingdom as the fifth prince. He just wanted to live well now, so after learning about the flood, He felt his chance had come.

After all, he is a modern person. He has received so many years of education and received a lot of training in emergency rescue and disaster relief. He also has a set of methods in preventing plague. He wants to fight for himself, so that he no longer has to do hard work.

When the female overseer learned that the Queen wanted to see him, she looked at the tattered clothes he was wearing and the sour smell on his body. She felt that he would offend the Queen, so she gave him a set of coarse clothes and took him to the river to wash. After washing and changing clothes, he handed them over to the guard who came to pick him up.

Huo Mingliang learned the lesson this time. When he saw the Queen, he immediately knelt down and saluted. He used to look down on the Queen in power, but now he flatters her.

Lianyi was pruning a potted plant. He glanced at the kneeling one-armed man and said softly:

"I heard that you have a recipe for suppressing the plague? Tell me about it."

"Yes, I have recipes here to enhance people's physical fitness and resist the plague, as well as ways to prevent the spread of the plague."

"You want to use this to negotiate terms with me."

"I don't dare, I just want to live well."

Huo Mingliang lowered his head and said, he could feel the other person's appraising gaze.

At this time, Ripples contacted its own communicator:

"Nineteen, I think the other party's soul has been fused very well. It probably won't take ten years."

"Jila. That's true! This is due to the torture you inflicted on him, which made him less and less resistant, so his degree of integration with his body became higher and higher."

"It's still a few years away."

"Two years at most."

Lianyi put down the small jade scissors in her hand and then said:

"Tell me everything you know, and you won't have to do corvee service for two years, as long as you stay in prison peacefully."

"Thank you Queen for your kindness. I will definitely tell you everything you know!"

Lianyi didn't want to look at the other party's distorted face, so she waved her hand directly, and someone took Huo Mingliang away.

One day later, what the other party said had been sorted out and sent to Lianyi. After she read it, she sent it to the second princess for her to consider and deal with it.

After the second princess got the booklet, she specifically asked where it came from and found out that it was the fifth prince of Panlong Kingdom who said it in order to survive. She actually believed it. After all, there had been a drought in Panlong Kingdom. These suggestions It still has certain reference value.

Moreover, this was something that had passed the mother-emperor's eyes. If it was useless, it would not be sent to her. So she directly discussed it with all the ministers one by one in the morning of the next day, deleting, deleting, and deleting. Those who could be used were compiled into a book, and people were sent directly to the disaster-stricken city.

The eldest princess took Nannan to greet Lianyi, saying that she had discussed with Rong Shijun and wanted to donate some money for disaster relief so as to set an example.

"This is something we can do within our capabilities. Instead of donating money, I think you can organize a donation event in the capital. Every household has unused items, whether it's clothes, shoes, socks, or dustpans and baskets. As long as the victims can use them, they can be used." They can be gathered together and sent to the affected cities."
