When this idea came to him, even he was stunned.
Didn't they already agree to divorce?
He had already come to accept Mu Wanting as his wife.
It seems that not getting a divorce isn't impossible, since Mu Wanting likes him anyway.
As long as he doesn't divorce her, Mu Wanting will definitely be very happy.
Mu Wanting is truly suited to be a wife.
Moreover, he was truly grateful to her for everything they had gone through, and he would definitely treat her well in the future.
The next stretch of road is through towns, where they can choose whether to stay in a room or a stable each night.
Each time, Mu Wanting and Shen Xinglan were arranged to be in the same room.
Mu Wanting went from feeling awkward at first to adapting and was able to sleep well.
However, this was quite a torment for Shen Xinglan.
Mu Wanting was restless every night, turning over and hugging him. Besides enduring the pain and itching in his bones, he also had to suppress his increasingly clear desires.
Perhaps it's because we've shared a bed for so long that even if we endured it the night before, it's no longer a problem.
When he woke up the next morning, Mu Wanting was still in his arms.
His hands were no longer innocent as before; they were now wrapped around her waist.
Moreover, after Mu Wanting leaves his arms, he will subconsciously pull her back into his arms.
The next morning, another awkward situation ensued.
After waking up early once again, Mu Wanting smiled and took out the paper and pen.
"Husband, didn't you want to contact your men to ask about my mother's whereabouts? I've prepared paper and pen for you."
"So how are you going to send this letter out?"
Mu Wanting said, "I've arranged for someone to slip the letter into their hand when we pass through town tomorrow."
Shen Xinglan then picked up her pen and wrote a letter. Mu Wanting put the letter away with a bright smile.
"Once I find my mother, I will make sure she treats you immediately."
Shen Xinglan nodded: "Okay."
On the street, Mu Wanting saw the people from Tianji Pavilion. She decisively stuffed the letter into their hands and asked them to deliver it.
Of the officials, only Su Yu saw it, but he turned a blind eye and did not make things difficult for Mu Wanting.
Mu Wanting gave him two apples.
"Thank you, sir."
"You think you can get rid of me with two apples? I want five."
Amused, Mu Wanting stuffed five more apples into his hand. Su Yu took the seven apples and smiled contentedly.
But they hadn't gone far when it started raining heavily again, so the officials had to find an inn to rest.
Everyone thought the rain wouldn't stop for long, but it just kept falling.
This trend could potentially lead to problems.
Recalling the floods in Jinzhou in her previous life, she had visited Jinzhou after the floods occurred. It was like a living hell, with countless relatives displaced and families destroyed.
Farmland and houses were all destroyed, and Jinzhou, which was once a relatively prosperous city, was reduced to a ruin overnight.
So many lives at stake, Mu Wanting couldn't bear it in the end.
Since there was an opportunity to change things, she couldn't just sit idly by.
Mu Wanting then found Ma Dazhuang and told him about it.
Ma Dazhuang frowned: "It rains every year around these times, but we've never seen any floods. Mu family, don't exaggerate."
Su Yu said, "But this rain seems a bit excessive."
Ma Dazhuang snorted.
"What do you know? The first few times there will be more rain, and then less."
Mu Wanting sighed, "Indeed, not everyone has the ability to lead."
Some people, even if you hand them a promotion opportunity, it may not be of any use.
Mu Wanting decided to use her teleportation ability to find the local officials.
She returned to her room, locked the door, dressed as a man, and teleported to the government office to inform the magistrate that it might rain.
"Sir, the rain is too heavy, and there may be flooding in a few days. Human lives are at stake, so I hope you will make plans as soon as possible."
When Magistrate Qian saw Mu Wanting suddenly appear, he assumed she was some kind of martial arts master, since some martial arts skills can make someone appear and disappear without a trace.
But what this expert said was too outrageous.
He sneered, "Jinzhou has never experienced flooding. You are spreading rumors. Guards, arrest him."
The constables surrounded Mu Wanting, but she easily dodged them, her breathing remaining steady.
"My lord, if you don't believe me, you can send people to check near the dam. Even the city is already flooded. In addition, Jinzhou is located in a low-lying area. If the Jinjiang Dam overflows and breaks, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The young clerk, Ding Shiming, quickly said, "Sir, the rain has indeed been too heavy these past two days. Some people have reported that the Jinjiang Dam is showing signs of breaching."
Upon hearing this, Magistrate Qian was stunned.
Mu Wanting looked at the advisor and felt that he looked somewhat familiar.
Then his eyes widened. Wasn't this Zhao Zhiyuan's most capable assistant in the future? This person was clear-headed and not simple at all.
With Ding Shiming's help, Mu Wanting finished delivering her prepared speech.
"This year there has been abundant rainfall, but Jinzhou has not much vegetation, so it cannot absorb the rainwater. In addition, the Jinjiang Dam is already full, and the dam has long had cracks."
"I suggest evacuating the city's residents as soon as possible and moving them to higher ground, so as to ensure the safety of the people to the greatest extent possible."
Magistrate Qian frowned, and Ding Shiming had already spoken.
“Sir, this matter cannot be taken lightly. If there is no flood, at most everyone will have made a wasted trip, and the people will praise you for loving the people like your own children. But if there is a flood, then you will have done a great deed and it will be a great achievement.”
