"Then, my dear minister, what do you think, how can we drain the water? Where should we divert it to? Will there be any disaster relief measures after the disaster?" The emperor asked a bunch of questions one after another! I guess he was really anxious. Chen Jingxi was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer. After thinking it over, he could only give a random answer, which the emperor did not understand.
Shen Yan originally had some guesses when he saw Chen Jingxi. I vaguely understood why Chen Jingxi appeared there yesterday by such a coincidence. Now I heard that Chen Jingxi not only stole the advice Lu Wan gave him, but also messed up such a good idea so recklessly. He immediately couldn't stand it anymore and yelled, "What nonsense!"
After Shen Yan spoke, he realized that he was still attending court in the main hall. He immediately knelt on the ground and said, "I deserve to die. I just heard what Chen Jingxi said. It was very similar to what Lu Wan said yesterday. I didn't want to expose her at first. Who would have thought that Chen Jingxi would say such nonsense afterwards? I couldn't bear to see such a wonderful idea being ruined by this person, so I dared to speak out. I hope the emperor will punish me."
Before the emperor could speak, Chen Jingxi could not help but say, "Chen Yan, do you have any real evidence for what you said? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will definitely ask the emperor to clear my name."
When Shen Yan heard that Chen Jingxi still refused to admit his mistake, he wanted to make a fuss instead. He immediately snorted coldly: "The flood in Jiangnan, you only know how to control the flood, but you don't know how to provide disaster relief. This is the best evidence!"

After the court session, Shen Yan hurried to where Lu Wan lived. Seeing him coming in a hurry, Lu Wan hurriedly asked: "Chen Yan, what's wrong with you? Is the method I said wrong?"
Chen Yan said helplessly, "It's not that you said it doesn't work, but today Chen Jingxi went to see His Majesty and reported your method to him. His Majesty thought it was a good method, so when he asked Chen Jingxi about the details, she couldn't tell him. It seems that she stole your method yesterday, but how could she know the details?"
Lu Wan was a little angry: "I'm afraid Chen Jingxi wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to seek credit and reward. She left in a hurry after hearing the general situation. She is really impatient. Besides, I also need to find a few people to look after the house. If someone comes to the owner's house again and doesn't know about it, my life will be in danger."
Lu Wan was thinking about how to protect the safety of himself and his family, and what to do if more bad guys came. So when she went to find Xiao Yu'an, she needed three or four people to guard the house. Even a weak woman could come in without being discovered. She had really regressed a lot.
Shen Yan thought for a moment and said, "Chen Jingxi is really bold. She dares to take everything to the emperor to seek credit. She is really brainless. She actually sneaked into someone else's house. It makes people angry just thinking about it."
Lu Wan smiled, sweeping away his previous displeasure, and said, "Okay, okay, stop arguing and think about how to deal with the flood in Jiangnan. This matter can't be delayed any longer, otherwise the disaster will become more serious." Lu Wan ignored this matter for the time being. At the moment, he was more concerned about the flood in Jiangnan. Human lives were at stake, so how could he ignore them just because of some annoying people?
Lu Wan said, "The previous method can immediately alleviate the disaster. Tell His Majesty that the water in Jiangnan can be diverted to the large canyon next to it. There is no one living there, and no one lives downstream either. It is dry and waterless, so there is no need to worry about another disaster. The flood in Jiangnan can be alleviated. After releasing some water, immediately clean up the bodies and burn them with fire. Sprinkle white lime on every flooded place to prevent the plague. Distribute plague prevention medicine to every citizen and isolate all the sick people to prevent the plague from spreading to each other."
Chen Yan said: "Okay, I will write it here right now, and then have someone send it to the palace immediately. But this is only a temporary solution. How can we prevent the flood in Jiangnan?"
Lu Wan suddenly thought of the modern South-to-North Water Diversion Project, so she said to Shen Yan: "I have a particularly good idea, but it is very complex." Shen Yan hurriedly asked: "What is the idea?" Lu Wan simply said four words: "South-to-North Water Diversion."
When Shen Yan heard that he was very clever and thought of transferring water from the south of the Yangtze River to the water-deficient areas in the north, he just didn't know how to do it, so he asked: "How to do it?"

Lu Wan took Chen Yan to the calligraphy room and found a map of the Great Han Kingdom. Lu Wan spread it out on the table and pointed to Jiangnan and said, "Jiangnan has plenty of rain all year round, and sometimes it overflows. The people in Jiangnan often suffer from floods." Lu Wan pointed to several places in the north and said, "These places in the north have very little rain and often suffer from droughts, which leads to the people having no harvest. If the water from Jiangnan is diverted to these places, Jiangnan will not have to worry about floods. And these places will also have water to irrigate crops, and the people will not have to worry about droughts."
After hearing what Lu Wan said, Shen Yan's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Great, great, it's really great. Lu Wan, you are really smart. Your methods are more effective than each other. You solved the two major problems of Dahan Kingdom at once. You are really smart." Shen Yan could no longer find the words to describe Lu Wan. Apart from praising her for her cleverness, he couldn't think of anything else to say.
Lu Wan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, do you have any idea?" Chen Yan took out thin carbon fibers one by one and started to draw them on the map until he connected Jiangnan, Fengyu City, Jiangyu City and other dry places with a line.
Then Lu Wan took the pen and drew another line, with the same starting point and end point. The two of them almost finished discussing the entire South-to-North Water Diversion Project with just one sentence each. After all, there were only two of them. Although Lu Wan drew on the modern South-to-North Water Diversion Project, she only knew a superficial level. Although Chen Yan was smart, he was not proficient in water conservancy. They could only consult the water conservancy master after the morning court tomorrow.
