Chapter 185

"Why are you free to come here today?" Zhou Ran asked with a smile after welcoming Mr. Fei into the door.

"I heard that your family has come to the capital. Let me come and take a look." After Mr. Fei finished speaking, he smiled and greeted Zhang and others in the yard, and then chatted with them about the previous events in Nanxing County.

Mr. Fei stayed here until lunch, checked the pulses of everyone in the Ye family, and then left home after seeing that the weather was getting bad.

Not long after Mr. Fei left, raindrops fell from the sky.

Half an hour later, the light rain at first turned into heavy rain, and finally the heavy rain turned into light rain.

It rained for three days in a row.

In the afternoon, Zhou Ran sat by the window and looked at the still sunny sky. She was a little worried about Ye Ximing. She didn't know if it was raining at Ye Ximing's place and whether Ye Ximing was safe.

Ye Ximing, who was being remembered by Zhou Ran, was currently wearing a raincoat, standing with the officials sent by the emperor in the pouring rain, staring at the surging river.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the river was blocked by the dam and diverted to another direction as they had planned.

"Did we succeed?" someone from a group of officials murmured.

Liu Shen, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, shook his head and said: "We will only be successful if this dam can hold up until the rain stops."

I don’t know how long this rain will last. If the newly built embankment is washed away by the raging river, then it can be said that this time it will be a failure.

Liu Shen, Ye Ximing and others stayed by the river in the rain every day, always paying attention to the condition of the river embankment.

Five days later, the rain finally stopped. Although the river was still turbulent, Liu Shen and Ye Ximing knew that they had really succeeded this time.

The group returned to the inn where they were staying and finally had a good sleep.

When Ye Ximing woke up, he felt that his whole body was light-headed. Ye Ximing had not felt this feeling for a long time. He reached out and touched his forehead, and sure enough he had a fever.

But this is not surprising. Although they were wearing raincoats, the rain was too strong and they would inevitably get wet. In addition, he had been mentally tense during this period. In order to build the river embankment and divert the water, he almost stayed up without sleep. It's already considered good that I didn't fall ill until now.

This is also thanks to Mr. Fei who completely cured his body, otherwise he might not have been able to build the river embankment.

After Liu Shen learned that Ye Ximing was ill, he asked a doctor to be found on Ye Ximing's behalf.

Ye Ximing is in good health now. After drinking medicine and recuperating for two days, although his illness is still not cured, he is finally feeling better.

In two days, the water level in the river dropped little by little, and finally returned to its previous calm state.

After Liu Shen took everyone on a tour, he decided to return to Beijing.

Before returning to Beijing, Liu Shen met Ye Ximing alone.

"You are indispensable for the success of this flood control strategy. After returning to Beijing, the emperor will probably not let you stay in the Hanlin Academy. Have you ever thought about which one you want to go to next?"

Liu Shen is the emperor's man. During this water control trip, Liu Shen did everything with his own hands and tried his best. Ye Ximing still respected him very much.

But after hearing his question, Ye Ximing still did not tell him what he really thought in his heart. "In response to my lord, as a minister, I naturally obey the emperor's arrangements in everything."

Liu Shen listened to Ye Ximing's impeccable answer. After staring at Ye Ximing for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go down first."

"Yes, my lord."

Ye Ximing just came out of Liu Shen's room and met Yuan Wenchong again.
