Chapter 196
The two immediately started to move, the disaster relief one, the one who repaired the canal.

Fortunately, it came in time.

But because it has been raining, it will be a matter of time before the Yellow River breaks its embankment.

So after appeasing the people, Master Jiu went to the scene with Chen Pengnian.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, Master Jiu frowned when he looked at it.

The water level of the Yellow River has risen a lot. If it rains for a few days, it will definitely break the dam.

Therefore, Chen Pengnian immediately ordered that people continue to move sand and stone from generation to generation to build the dam higher.

And he himself braved the wind and rain to participate,

Even Chen Pengnian was like this, Master Jiu couldn't hide under the umbrella, so he rolled up his sleeves and started working.

It's just that Master Jiu is used to being pampered after all. It's okay to work for an hour, but Master Jiu can't stand it for a day or two.

Then Master Jiu, who had never sneezed for years, fell ill.

"My minister knows that elder brother Jiu cares about the common people, but elder brother is tired and sick now, why not take a two-day rest first."

In Jiuye's residence, Jiuye was lying on the bed flushed, wearing only a single shirt.

Because of the continuous rain, Master Jiu immediately developed a high fever.Now the whole person is confused.

And Chen Pengnian was not much better, he was sloppy, his beard stubble grew much longer, and his hands were already white and wrinkled because they were often soaked in water.

It's just that he doesn't care at all.

"Master Chen, please rest for a while!"

Master Jiu supported his head, panting heavily.

"I'm fine, my elder brother is recovering from illness, I'll go over and have a look."

Chen Pengnian shook his head, but still couldn't let go of the matter by the dike, so he saluted Lord Jiu and left.

Master Jiu had no choice but to lie down and rest. He really had more than enough heart but not enough energy.

I just hope the rain will stop soon.

After Jiuye drank the medicine, he lay down to rest. He didn't know how long it took. Jiuye just felt that he just lay down.

Laixi, who followed, hurried in to report.

"Master, something is wrong."

Laixi was crawling and rolling, which made Lord Jiu sit up immediately.

"What happened?"

Master Jiu hurriedly asked, if it wasn't an important matter, Laixi wouldn't bother him.

"Return to Master, Master Chen, he...he..."

Laixi knelt beside Master Jiu's bed, her body was completely soaked, her face was wet, she didn't know whether it was tears or rain.

"You dog slave are talking!"

If Master Jiu hadn't been bored, he would have kicked Laixi.

"Master Chen is dead!"

After Laixi finished speaking, she looked at Master Jiu nervously.

"What's going on, wasn't it fine just now?"

Hearing this, Master Jiu hurriedly got up and got off the ground, asking Laixi while putting on his clothes.

Laixi didn't dare to stop Master Jiu, and said while putting on shoes for Master Jiu.

"Shortly after Mr. Chen went to the river, he suddenly fell to the ground and couldn't get up. The doctor checked his pulse and found out that Mr. Chen was exhausted to death due to overwork."

Laixi felt a little regretful, this Chen Pengnian is really honest, he has been in Kaifeng for more than ten days, except for a few hours of rest at night, he just stays by the river every day.

This waste of sleep and food, under the wind and rain, he should have been tired long ago.

But he kept on holding on, there was a lot of water in the Yellow River, and he didn't cry out that he was tired. Now it's over, he was exhausted to death.

"A stubborn thing!"

Jiu Ye continued to be annoyed and angry, but there was nothing he could do now, so he had to ask someone to deal with Chen Pengnian's funeral. By the way, he wrote a note about the situation here and Chen Pengnian's hard work and sent it to Jiangnan.

And Master Jiu could only drag his illness to replace Chen Pengnian's errand.

It's just that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and Chen Pengnian's death didn't mean to call the sky to stop the rain.

It has been rainy for several days, and the water of the Yellow River is about to rise.Master Jiu is not a good hand at controlling floods, and he has no choice but to ask people to reinforce the embankment over and over again.

But still on the third day of July, the Yellow River burst its embankment.

Jiuye, who was standing on the bank of the Yellow River, was also washed down by the flood by an accident.

Seeing this, Laixi couldn't care about others anymore, and hurriedly called the soldiers to look for Master Jiu.

It's just that before the water recedes, if you want to find someone, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Therefore, for three days in a row, not to mention Jiu Ye, even Jiu Ye's shoes and clothes were not seen.

Laixi's face was ashamed, and he asked someone to pass the news back.

Lord Kangxi in Cao's house received the news that Master Jiu had fallen into the water, and the Ruijun Prince's Mansion in the capital also received the news.

Jiufujin Dong E passed out immediately after listening.

Woke up when it was dark.

"They're all useless trash, so many people can't serve Master well, ah! They're all trash!"

Dong E's looks a bit heartbreaking.

From ancient times to the present, how many people who were washed away by the flood survived. Although Master Jiu didn't like Dong E's family very much, Dong E's family could not live without Master Jiu.

"Master, calm down, your body is critical."

Caixiu hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her.

"My master is gone, what use do I need this body for?"

Dong E's face was full of tears, if Master Jiu is really gone, how will their orphans and widows live.

"Because of this, master has to cheer up! If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about us, Sige, she is still young!"

Caixiu was still relatively calm, she made the worst plan, if Master Jiu really disappeared.

If Fujin doesn't stand up, Ge Ge in the mansion will have no good way out in the future.

Therefore, what he should think about now is how to control this Ruijun Palace in his own hands.

"did you mean······?"

Dong E's eyes sank slightly, and he picked up a handkerchief to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Today's princes' titles are all hereditary. If Master Jiu loses his title of county king, he will naturally give it to his sons.

Now there are only two elder brothers in the mansion, both from the Liu family, but the second elder brother is weak and not a good candidate, so as long as the eldest brother is held in the palm of his hand, then the future of this mansion will not be Dong E Shi has the final say.

"Since this is the case, then the two on Zhuangzi don't have to be born."

Dong Eshi tightened the handkerchief in his hand, a look of sternness flashed in his eyes.

"Then this servant will send someone to notify Qiuju."

Caixiu nodded, and it has been several months since she sent Qiuju to Guo Luoluo, but Dong E never used it once.

It's not that Dong E's family doesn't use autumn oranges, it's just that they haven't waited for the right opportunity, and now is the most suitable time.

"Well, tell Qiuju that the child Guo Luoluo doesn't need to stay, and tell her to find a way to deal with it.

As for the stuff in Shi Shi's stomach, it would be better if they could be dealt with together, if not, let's keep it! "

This kind of thing naturally has to come one by one, if they come together, it will inevitably make people suspicious.

And Guo Luoluo was about to give birth, and there was no time to wait any longer.

"Yes"

Caixiu nodded, although Master Jiu surrounded the village like an iron barrel, but Dong E's family has been in the family for several years?

It's not a problem to put a few people inside.

Therefore, in the early morning of the next day, the outside news reached Qiuju's ears.
