Upon hearing this, Jiang Muyu knew there was hope.

I can’t believe that so many things have changed, but the country’s major issues are still the same as the original text.

At this time, a very serious flood occurred in the Jiangnan area. As autumn was approaching and it was harvest time, heavy rain fell and the farmland in the area suffered. If the situation was not controlled in time, the people would probably have no harvest this year.

The Jiangnan area is the food lifeline of the country. Such a flood would cause great damage to the country's economy. The emperor was worried and sought good advice from all over the country.

In the original text, the plan to control floods proposed by the heroine's brother Shen Mofeng was recognized by the emperor, which also laid the foundation for him to become the top scholar in the imperial examination in the future.

Although Jiang Muyu was a little confused as to why there were so many ministers in the court but no one could come up with a reasonable strategy, a young man far away in Hangzhou took advantage of the situation.

Could this be the guidance of the powerful protagonist halo?

In this case, she would be the one to destroy this halo. She wanted to see what kind of impact this incident would have on Shen Mofeng's future development.

Jiang Muyu did not answer Liang Qingchen's words, and walked towards the mansion in a good mood. After transmigrating into the book for so long, it was the first time that she felt the joy of having a script in her hands.

The next day, Jiang Muyu went to Wen Mansion early in the morning by carriage.

When Liu Cuifu learned that she had arrived, she hurried out of the house to greet her, "I didn't know that the princess had come in person. I'm sorry for not welcoming you from afar. I hope you will forgive me."

Jiang Muyu was too lazy to be polite with her, so she waved her hand and said, "I will not go in. I am here to take you to the prison to visit Wen Xiu. Please get ready. I will be waiting for you in the carriage."

Hearing this, Liu Cuifu guessed that she must have come up with a plan. She was overjoyed and said quickly, "Your Majesty, wait a moment. I'll go pack and come right back."

"Well, don't forget to bring your pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. They will be very useful."

"yes."

Liu Cuifu immediately returned to the house and packed a bag.

She did not dare to keep Jiang Muyu waiting for long. In less than a quarter of an hour, she left the house and got on the palace's carriage.

As they got closer to the prison, Liu Cuifu felt both happy and worried. She was happy that she would be able to see her husband soon, but she was worried that her husband was now in prison and his situation must be very difficult.

Jiang Muyu looked at her expression and said, "You are sincere to your husband."

Hearing this, Liu Cuifu smiled, her eyes full of tenderness, "I fell in love with him when I was still a young lady from the Duke's Mansion. I don't care that he comes from a poor family. Being able to marry the one I love is the most satisfying thing in my life."

Back then, Liu Cuifu had a falling out with the Duke's Mansion in order to marry Wen Xiu. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to Jiang Muyu for help this time. She must have been desperate.

Soon, the carriage stopped.

Jiang Muyu walked down and looked around. He saw guards holding weapons everywhere, which showed that the supervision was quite strict.

As soon as they walked over, they were stopped outside the door. The soldier asked coldly, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Liu Cuifu said, "My dear brothers, I am the wife of Wen Xiu, the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple. I am here to visit my husband. I hope you can accommodate me."

"Do you have a pass?"

"This..." Liu Cuifu looked at Jiang Muyu worriedly.

Jiang Muyu took out a jade pendant that was all emerald green and asked, "Can I use this jade token to pass through?"

She borrowed this from Liang Qingchen. It was said that any official from anywhere in Tiangan Country would let her pass safely if they saw her with it.

As expected, the next moment the guard knelt down and saluted her, "I don't know your identity, Your Highness. I hope you will forgive me. Please come in."

Jiang Muyu's eyebrows jumped. He didn't expect this thing to be so useful.

A guard led them into the prison. As they walked inside, they passed cells separated by thick wooden blocks. The number of people in each cell varied. Each prisoner wore prison uniforms and had heavy iron chains on their hands and feet. They were all disheveled and would curiously look in when they saw someone coming in.

It was very damp inside, and there was a moldy smell and an indescribable stench.

The two were taken to the door of a cell near the back, the guard in charge opened the door of the cell, and they were let in.

At this time, Wen Xiu was sitting on a pile of half-dried straw in prison clothes, his hair was disheveled, his face was a little pale, his beard was untidy, and his lips were chapped.

It's obvious that he's not having a good time here.

"Husband, you have suffered." Liu Cuifu was full of heartache.

Wen Xiu was still a little slow to react when he saw them, then he slowly stood up and bowed to Jiang Muyu, "Your humble servant greets the princess."

"Master Wen, there is no need to be so polite."

Wen Xiu then held Liu Cuifu's hand and asked worriedly, "Why are you here? What are you doing in a place like this?"

"I...I came to see you." Liu Cuifu tried hard to maintain her composure, but she couldn't hide the trembling in her voice when she opened her mouth.

Wen Xiu felt very distressed, sighed, and asked, "Is everything okay at home?"

Liu Cuifu said, "Everything is fine, my husband, don't worry. The most important thing right now is you. The princess and I came here today to find a way to save you."

Wen Xiu thought of this when she saw Jiang Muyu. If the lady hadn't asked her to do so, it would have been absolutely impossible for her to set foot here with her status.

"Thank you, Princess, for your help." He bowed to Jiang Muyu again.

"Let's stop talking nonsense." Jiang Muyu waved his hand and said, "I came here this time to bring good news to Master Wen. If you seize this opportunity, not only can you avoid imprisonment, but you may also be able to rise to prominence in the future."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Jiang Muyu looked at Liu Cuifu, "Did you bring everything I asked you to bring?"

"I brought it." Liu Cuifu quickly opened her bag and took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Jiang Muyu then got to the point and said, "Recently, there has been a flood in the Jiangnan area. The emperor is very worried and will soon solicit good suggestions from all over the country. Now I need you, Master Wen, to write a good plan for flood control and submit it to me so that I can make up for my mistake."

Hearing this, Wen Xiu frowned and said, "I understand what you mean, Madam. This is a good idea. Unfortunately, I am in prison and have never been to Jiangnan. I don't know what the situation is like in that area now. How can I write a good plan?"

"I have naturally thought of this, so all you need to do is for me to tell you about this good idea and you can just write it down."

Wen Xiu was stunned and asked, "Has your Majesty already thought of a way to control the flood?"

"Yes." She glanced at Liu Cuifu who was also in a daze beside her and said, "Why are you in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and grind the ink."

Liu Cuifu finally reacted and quickly said yes.

There was no desk in the cell, only a wooden board that could barely be used for writing.

Jiang Muyu simply described the methods of flood control in plain language, and then Wen Xiu wrote it into an article.

She looked at the densely packed words on the paper and couldn't help but praise: "Your Excellency is indeed a talented writer."

Wen Xiu said humbly, "It is your majesty's plan that is good. I have only done some minor revisions."

She patted his shoulder and said, "Just wait, you will be out of prison soon."

"yes."
