As expected by everyone, she became the wife of the Marquis after being married off

Heavy rain poured down for several days in a row, and the water in the canal rose visibly. The dam that was hastily built over many days played a key role in this flood.

The flood in the previous life did not reach the upper reaches, and the worry in Shen Lanyue's brows in recent days was reduced a little. In fact, in the memory of the previous life, this heavy rain not only brought floods, but also brought out epidemics.

The earthquake itself brought a lot of hidden dangers. The rampant flood, coupled with the viruses in the bodies of dead animals, together evolved into an extremely complex epidemic.

In Shen Lanyue's memory, the epidemic was very difficult to deal with in the early stages, and many people died.

So in this life, she wants to prevent this incident within her ability, or at least minimize the harm to people.

three days ago

Meng Changce did not give himself a complete answer that day, so Shen Lanyue guessed that this matter would not be agreed to by Emperor Yingde so quickly.

So when Shen Lanyue saw the rain outside getting heavier, the sadness in her eyes became increasingly difficult to hide.

"Is there really no way?" Shen Lanyue asked.

Meng Changce's eyes flashed, but he did not deny this answer immediately.

“Respect the will of heaven and listen to the will of man.”

Shen Lanyue sighed slightly. She understood the meaning of these six words.

The most difficult part of this matter was not the coming heavy rain, but whether Emperor Yingde would believe it and spend a lot of manpower and financial resources to build the canal.

Shen Lanyue asked tentatively: "How sure are you?" She believed in her heart that Meng Changce would never ignore this matter.

Meng Changce leaned back lazily, his dark eyes slightly raised to look at the continuously falling rain.

He frowned and chuckled, "If I go, it's only 30%, but if he goes, it can reach at least 90%."

Shen Lanyue was stunned when she heard this, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.

But it was only a moment, and she hid the emotions in her eyes.

She had already learned about his father from Meng Changce, and had also glimpsed the outcome of everything from her memories of her past life.

The general idea is clear, what is the emperor's attitude towards the Meng family.

However, Shen Lanyue was not very worried about this. Meng Changce was able to succeed in his previous life, and he would never be able to walk in this life under her guidance. It was an unexpected ending.

...............

That day, after getting the reminder from Meng Changce, Shen Lanyue would often stand in front of the window and stare at the heavy rain outside.

After getting some information from general inquiries, it was confirmed that the river embankment and canal were being repaired upstream.

Only then did I silently breathe a sigh of relief in my heart.

Under this prediction, nothing that happened in the previous life happened.

At the same time, the court's response won the admiration of many people.

After two months of post-disaster repair work, the officials and the people worked together and finally made arrangements for all the victims.

At the end of that day, the emperor specially held a banquet in the palace to reward all the officials who had completed the mission.

This time it was the Fourth Prince's party that attracted much attention, and the reason was very simple, because Zheng Chengsi offered suggestions for repairing the river embankment.

"It's true that every generation has its own talented people. I'm afraid we old bones are of no use."

"Hahahahaha, Lord Zhang, how should we deal with what you said now?"

Zheng Chengsi was patted on the shoulder by two old officials, but there was no pride on his face, but he was always very humble.

"I don't want to thank you two adults for your kindness. Chengsi is just used to watching the changes in these weather indicators in the army."

"Oh, you are so modest. Good boy!" Lord Zhang felt very comfortable hearing this and praised him even more.

Although these two adults do not have as high a status as him, these old officials have seen ups and downs and have connections with various people in the court.

Zheng Chengsi just smiled gently in response to Lord Zhang's words.

"I see that the adults are about to eat Chengsi."

While they were talking, Li Jing came over with the people around him. While speaking in a warm and loud voice, he glanced at Li Wenxuan and others who were standing not far away.

"Fourth Prince/Marquis Changning."

Li Jing smiled gently and elegantly, and raised the hands of the two adults.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Zheng Chengsi bowed and said, "Fourth Prince."

At the same time, he looked at Meng Changce who was standing lazily beside him, and they saw strong silence in each other's eyes.

Compared to them, Li Jing seemed particularly gentle and elegant, with a graceful demeanor like a spring breeze, making it easier for people to approach him.

This is his unique temperament. Because he possesses this aura, he has a very good reputation among civil and military officials.

"Your Highness, we still have plenty of opportunities." Zhu Huaishu said cautiously to Li Wenxuan beside him.

Li Wenxuan snorted and left with a flick of his sleeves, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes.

Zhu Huaishu hurriedly followed.

Wang Shuo looked at the people not far away who were having a good conversation with an amused look on his face.

Zhu Huaishu saw that he was still standing there and couldn't keep up, then looked at Li Wenxuan whose figure had disappeared, and shouted angrily through gritted teeth.

"Prince, let's go!"

"Oh." Wang Shuo followed him and left.

Only Meng Changce cast an indescribable look at their backs in the gap.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a faint, cold smile.

The fight between the two princes once again became a evenly matched situation.

The third prince won the support of the people because of his corruption case in the capital and was highly valued by Emperor Yingde.

Although the Fourth Prince did not openly give him any special reward this time, after the palace banquet was over, he was specially summoned to the Queen's palace to have dinner together.

He appeared in the Queen's palace for several days in a row.

The meaning was quite obvious, and Li Wenxuan was so angry that he was depressed for a long time.

There has been some unrest in the palace recently, with several disobedient concubines always complaining to the princess about their affairs.

This made Li Wenxuan's already depressed mood even more irritable. He originally wanted to go to the backyard to have fun.

"Your Highness, I really don't know how I have offended the princess..." The weak concubine, who was lying beside Li Wenxuan, said in a low voice with tears in her eyes.

But before she could finish, Li Wenxuan frowned and kicked the man to the ground.

"Someone, take it to the princess."

He ignored the beauty who was kneeling on the ground with her hands on her belly, and walked out without any mercy.

After another concubine got into trouble, he flew into a rage in the mansion and handed all those disobedient people over to Sun Shu for handling.

At this moment, he thought more and more of the charming and delicate Shen Wanqing.

The desire to take her back became even stronger at this moment.

"Come here, prepare the gifts." Li Wenxuan straightened his sleeves and shouted loudly, "I need to go to the Princess's Mansion."
