If Yunlong Weir was not built with substandard materials, then it can withstand the test completely, and he naturally has no need to worry about his life.
But if he has done something wrong, that's another matter.
His life was less a matter of fate and more a matter of being in his own hands from the very beginning.

"It's been raining for a whole day and night, and there's still no sign of it stopping."
"If it keeps raining like this, won't it flood Yanjing?"
"Oh dear, I can't even do business anymore, it's really worrying!"
...
On the first day, some were happy while others were sad.
After so many hot days, it finally rained, preventing the land from drying out.
But the rain showed no signs of stopping!
Fortunately, the official drainage system in Yanjing was well-constructed, preventing rainwater from accumulating on the ground and becoming unmanageable. However, with the rain continuing, everyone stayed indoors and was unwilling to go out, making even the busiest streets deserted.
the next day.
...
By the third day, everyone's mood had started to become irritable.
Because of the heavy rain, the imperial court granted a few days off.
However, some important positions still cannot be taken off, such as the Ministry of Works and the Jingzhao Prefecture.
One must remain on the front lines, keeping a close eye on the situation at Yunlongyan, while the other is responsible for maintaining public order.
——
Just then, Shen Tangning accidentally learned some news—
The eldest princess has been suffering from a cold for two days, with a persistent high fever and a critical condition.
"Where is the imperial physician? Shouldn't we summon the imperial physician to come and treat His Highness at a time like this?"
The messenger was a close attendant of the Crown Prince's cousin, who looked troubled: "His Majesty has given an order that no one dares to examine the Princess."

If you catch a cold, it can be fatal!
Shen Tangning suddenly clenched her fingers, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes: "Your Highness is, after all, a princess of a nation!"
His Majesty has pushed the Princess to this point simply to force her to mobilize the Qianlin Guard. He truly has no regard for any feelings whatsoever!
"His Highness the Crown Prince has too many spies, making it difficult to act. Therefore, he specifically sent me to inquire if Miss has any solutions?"
Shen Tangning frowned deeply, at a loss for what to do. The Princess's residence was heavily guarded, and every move she made was under Emperor Chongde's watchful eye. It wouldn't be so easy to sneak in.
However, she still replied to her attendant: "Please tell my cousin that I will find a way to resolve this matter."
After Chang Sui left, Shen Tangning couldn't calm down.
Yan Mingyi had been quite loyal to her. Although it was a mutual exploitation, he had helped her a lot. Now that the other party's life was hanging by a thread, she couldn't just stand by and do nothing, neither morally nor logically.
But how can we evade Emperor Chongde's spies and bring the doctor in?
She unconsciously bit her lower lip, then suddenly her brow relaxed, and a glimmer of light appeared in her eyes:
