The two of them also discovered a lot of similarities between themselves and each other, so Jiang Qingyu's image in Xiao Jingyu's mind was refreshed again and again.

The two people went from not talking to each other at the beginning to gradually debating about an issue or a point of view.

Not to mention Jiang Zhuoran, who has gradually become dependent on Xiao Jingyu in the past few days and is almost calling him daddy.

During these two days, Jiang Qingyu transferred all the patients in the clinic.

Even if there is no flood, the continuous rainy days are not conducive to patients' recovery and the storage of medicines.

So, Jiang Qingyu made this decision.

Fortunately, when the Liu family was building Chiqing Mountain, they built enough houses.

When they built the houses, it was on the one hand to avoid the cold, and on the other hand to store items that were afraid of moisture.

Also, the Liu family has a lot of money and Chiqing Mountain is big enough.

Therefore, the Liu family, who had a lot of money but nowhere to spend it, built every house very nicely.

It just so happens that it comes in handy now.

Since coming to Liu Mansion, Chu Chu has become very quiet.

He only appeared in front of Jiang Qingyu and the others occasionally, and no one knew what he was busy with the rest of the time.

In addition to accompanying Jiang Zhuoran, Xiao Jingyu also kept an eye on changes in weather and water levels.

There have been heavy rains in the past two days, and the water in Liu Mansion’s pond is full.

Just when Xiao Jingyu and Jiang Qingyu were reading a book together, Lingxing came.

"Your Majesty, here comes today's water level changes."

Xiao Jingyu didn't move, but just put the book in his hand on the table.

"Go ahead."

“Your Highness, our men, together with the prefect’s men, have measured and found that the water level continues to rise.

And the speed of change is getting faster and faster. Yesterday and the day before yesterday, it only increased by three inches, but from yesterday to now, it has increased by seven inches.

Even the governor of Jiangnan said that this heavy rain was different from previous years.

If the sky doesn't clear up today, I'm afraid there will be a flood.

By then, both crops and people will probably be on the verge of death.

The prefect is in the front hall now and wants to see you."

Jiang Qingyu, who was standing next to him, put down the book in his hand after hearing Ling Xing's words and looked at Xiao Jingyu.

Xiao Jingyu stood up, walked to the door, and looked at the sky covered with dark clouds.

On the other side, in the sunny capital, in the quiet imperial study, the only sound was the emperor reading memorials.

Suddenly, the voice of a young eunuch broke the silence.

"Your Majesty, this is a letter from His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, sent over eight hundred miles in an expedited manner. Please have a look at it."

Except for matters related to Jiang Qingyu, Xiao Jingyu is the most steady when it comes to other matters.

So when the emperor heard that the message came from Xiao Jingyu, he still expeditiously sent it.

He immediately put down the memorial in his hand and looked at the eunuch Wang who was serving him.

Not to mention that he was a favorite of the emperor, Eunuch Wang understood what the emperor meant with just one look.

Eunuch Wang hurried forward and took the letter from the young eunuch.

Anything given to the emperor, whether it was food, clothing or daily necessities, had to undergo layer-by-layer inspection.

Even if she entered the palace, she still had to be checked by the eunuchs before the emperor could take over.

Eunuch Wang's master, a close minister to the previous emperor, died while testing poison for the emperor.

The emperor, who escaped the disaster, gave Eunuch Wang's master a grand funeral and promoted his disciple Eunuch Wang to be his personal eunuch.

Fortunately, Eunuch Wang had served the emperor for so many years and had never encountered any case of poisoning the emperor.

Despite this, Eunuch Wang is still cautious in doing things.

So, after some inspection and making sure there were no problems, Eunuch Wang presented the letter to the emperor.

The emperor sat upright and unfolded the letter.

Looking through the back of the paper, there were only a few short lines of words.

However, this made the emperor, who was usually calm, feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.

The emperor spoke to Eunuch Wang in a panic.

"Eunuch Wang, go and call Tianshi Wang from the Imperial Observatory over.

Let him come to see me immediately!"

From the emperor's reaction, and the fact that he wanted to invite Master Wang, Eunuch Wang knew that the letter from the King of Qi was not simple.

"Hey, I'll go right away."

Eunuch Wang quickly accepted the order and left the imperial study with the young eunuch.

After Eunuch Wang and his men left, the emperor was the only one left in the imperial study.

After reading Xiao Jingyu's letter, he felt uneasy.

I have always wondered whether I have done anything wrong during the years I have been in power.

The last time a flood broke out, it happened that the previous emperor was suppressing his brothers.

Because it is rumored that if the king is unkind, God will send down natural disasters as a warning.

If the people are not at peace, the country will not be at peace.

If the country is in turmoil, then his throne will also be in turmoil.

Having been emperor for so many years, he has always been diligent and conscientious. Except when he was seriously ill, he insisted on attending court every day.

He never asks others to do things that he can do himself.

How come it has ended up with a natural disaster now?

Just when the emperor was confused, Eunuch Wang came back.

When the emperor saw Eunuch Wang, he became very anxious.

"Eunuch Wang, why did you come back so soon?

Didn't I order you to ask for Tianshi Wang?"

"Your Majesty, I was halfway there when I met Master Wang Tianshi."

After Eunuch Wang finished speaking, he stood aside for a while.

At this time, Master Wang Tianshi, who was following Eunuch Wang, appeared in front of the emperor.

It turned out that the emperor was too anxious and did not notice that there was someone following Eunuch Wang.

Wang Tianshi appeared from behind Eunuch Wang and bowed to greet the emperor.

"I pay my respects to your majesty."

As soon as the emperor saw Master Wang, he became very anxious.

"No need to be so polite, Master. Please stand up quickly.

I just happen to have something to talk to you about, Jiangnan..."

Before the emperor could finish his words, Wang Tianshi raised his whisk.

“Your Majesty, you don’t have to say anything.

I already know it. I came here for this matter, and I just figured it out."

It turned out to be the Heavenly Master. Before he said anything, Master Wang already knew it.

The emperor asked him with some joy.

"In that case, is what Tianshi said true?

Is there a way to resolve this?"

Master Wang nodded in response to the emperor's words.

“Your Majesty, it is true.

This heavy rain may cause flash floods in the south of the Yangtze River, and this time it may be even more serious than the last time."

When the emperor heard this, he was so frightened that he fell straight down on the dragon throne.

"why?

I have been working diligently and wholeheartedly for the people over the years.

Why do you punish me like this even though I am old? "

Seeing the emperor like this, Wang Tianshi spoke again.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Although the disaster is serious, the casualties seem to be very low."

After hearing this, the emperor felt better.

"really?"

In response to the emperor's question, Master Wang nodded.

“It is true, Your Majesty.

I have calculated that with the help of a noble person, the disaster in Jiangnan can be turned into a blessing."
