Rebellious Poisonous Wife: My Adorable Baby Accompanies Me to Rebirth

Liu Banruo stood on the top of the palace, looking at the rolling dark clouds in the sky, with an indescribable premonition surging in his heart.

She knew very well that if Xiao Yunxi really wanted to capture the Lingnan Palace, this natural disaster would undoubtedly be the best cover.

However, until the next morning, Xiao Yunxi's expected army had not yet arrived. She sent spies to investigate and reported that Xiao Yunxi's army was still stationed safely at the inn and there was no movement.

Liu Banruo was filled with doubts. She thought she had an insight into Xiao Yunxi's intentions, but now she seemed to have missed the point. Could it be that my judgment was wrong? Xiao Yunxi, what on earth are you planning? This uncertainty made her feel inexplicably irritable, and she decided to send more troops back to the house to deal with possible changes.

At the same time, in the inn, Xiao Yunxi, Nan Xuan and Lin Dalang were having a secret conversation. Nan Xuan asked in confusion: "Yun Xi, aren't we going to take advantage of the natural disaster to attack the palace? Why have we been so slow to move?"

Xiao Yunxi's eyes were deep and she said slowly: "Although the natural disaster is an opportunity for us, there is also a hidden danger. Once the natural disaster stops, the inn will become the target of public criticism. Although Yihan has destroyed the gunpowder depot, the Lingnan Palace must have spare gunpowder. They will not miss this opportunity to deal with us, so we must evacuate this place before the natural disaster stops."

"Evacuate?" Nan Xuan was stunned, obviously not expecting Xiao Yunxi to make such a decision. Xiao Yunxi continued: "The evacuation is not to retreat, but to better attack. We must use this natural disaster to win the hearts and minds of the people. The King of Lingnan will definitely not provide relief after the natural disaster, because he does not dare to expose his weaknesses at this time . And if we stand up and help the people, we can win their support and our chances of winning will be greatly increased.”

Lin Dalang looked at Xiao Yunxi, and although he felt that her plan was simple, he had to admire her courage and wisdom. Although her plan is not complicated, it is practical and full of justice.

Liu Banruo's preparedness did not wait for the expected Xiao Yunxi's army, but instead came news that she had not expected.

It turned out that Xiao Yunxi actually led four thousand troops to the mountainous area to help people escape during the natural disaster. Liu Banruo was stunned when she heard the news. She had never thought that Xiao Yunxi would do such a thing.

The natural disasters became more and more violent, with howling winds and heavy rains. Houses on the outskirts of the city collapsed one after another, trees were uprooted, and many houses in the city were seriously damaged.

However, the natural disasters do not seem to show any signs of stopping, but are getting worse.

In order to accommodate the victims, the government opened schools, ancestral halls and temples as temporary shelters.

However, as the heavy rain intensifies, people near the mountains must evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise if a landslide or mudslide occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.

Moreover, there are many villages on the mountainside, making evacuation work extremely difficult. Many mountain people were unwilling to leave their homeland, so the government had to try its best to persuade them, and sometimes even took coercive measures. However, due to lack of manpower, the government could only hope that the army of King Lingnan would assist in the evacuation.

Although the King of Lingnan sent some troops to assist in the evacuation of the mountainous area, a large number of troops were still stationed near the palace. After the prefect Li learned about this, he rode his horse to the palace in the rain, hoping to get more help. However, when he arrived at the palace, he saw that the streets were filled with soldiers wearing raincoats. It was dark, as if the entire palace was surrounded by troops.

Mr. Li was shocked. He knew that the King of Lingnan was not really relieving the disaster, but was taking this opportunity to expand his power. He took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Excuse me, please give way. I have something to ask you to see the prince!" However, his voice seemed so weak amidst the heavy rain and the noise of the army, as if it was swallowed by the darkness.

Liu Banruo stood high in the palace and watched everything from a distance. She had mixed feelings in her heart. She admired Xiao Yunxi's wisdom and bravery, but she was also worried that this natural disaster would bring serious disaster to Lingnan.
