After a long while, Jun Wuji parted his thin lips slightly, and his cold voice rang in everyone's ears.

"There are countless displaced people in the city now. Is it more important to provide disaster relief or for the two of us to rest?"

"Or does Your Excellency believe that His Highness the Crown Prince and I are no different from you?"

"No, no, no, it was my ignorance that led to this..."

Hexun quickly tried to speak, but was interrupted by Jun Wuji.

"No need to say anything else; report the extent of the disaster in the city truthfully."

His tone was impatient, and Hexun quickly stopped what he was saying and began reporting on the disaster.

"This disaster happened very suddenly. Seven days before the flood, the city was bathed in sunshine, and then it started raining."

At first, we thought it was normal for it to rain a few times in the summer, but to our surprise, the rain started to get uncontrollable, getting heavier and heavier, and showing no signs of stopping.

By the time we realized something was wrong, it was too late; the dikes could no longer hold back the floodwaters.

In the aftermath of the flood, hundreds of houses collapsed, farmland was completely submerged and destroyed, and dozens of road sections were washed away, leaving the people homeless.

We have already dispatched our men to provide aid, but there are simply too many refugees, and nearly half of our manpower has been sent to repair the dikes.

That's why Your Highness sees the situation you have today. I have failed in my duties and deserve to die.

However, the rain shows no sign of stopping, and the repair work on the dike is progressing slowly. We are at a loss and hope that Your Highnesses can come up with some solutions.”

Jun Wuji's brows furrowed more and more as he listened, lost in thought.

Jun Wuke, who had been mostly silent, spoke up at this moment.

"This is not your fault. The relief personnel and funds sent by Father have already arrived."

You should send more manpower and resources to repair the dikes, and also send more people to set up shelters in the city.

They also distributed porridge to provide temporary shelter for the people so they wouldn't go hungry.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince truly possesses the talent to govern the country. We will immediately dispatch people to carry it out."

Hexun flattered him, and then a group of people began to fawn over Jun Wuke, offering him a long string of compliments.

Seeing this, Di Beiyao tried hard to suppress the urge to roll his eyes. In the eyes of this group of people, this unchanging strategy for dealing with floods for thousands of years was a sign of having the talent to govern a country.

Back when she was in power, she rejected this kind of ridiculous idea. All she ever did was block things out.

The floodwaters were so powerful that no dam could withstand them. Every time a flood came, the dams had to be repaired, but in the end, they were only of limited use, while the government wasted countless resources and manpower.

Seeing that Jun Wuji was still frowning, it seemed that he also thought Jun Wuke's method wouldn't work.

Sigh, well, I'm at least a part of the Canglan Kingdom now, so I'll just consider it doing her a favor.

She walked up to Jun Wuji and told him everything on her mind. Seeing that Jun Wuji's brows gradually relaxed, she knew that her idea had been accepted.

So he returned to his original seat and slowly sipped his tea. Hmm, this premium Longjing tea was barely palatable.

"etc."

He Xun was relaying the message to those below when he was stopped by this cold voice, and looked at Jun Wuji in the main seat with a puzzled expression.

Jun Wuke paused in his fan-waving, a dark glint flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his gentle smile and said softly:

"What's wrong, Your Majesty? Do you think there's something wrong with the strategy I just came up with? Or do you have a better strategy?"
