"Where are you from?"
Zhu Xuan asked.
"People from Changshu."
Ji Wenjing said.
Zhu Xuan asked: "Since you are sure that you will die in the south, or in the wind and rain, why do you still come to Panyu?"
It seems that this person appeared in Panyu deliberately to seek death, and insisted on visiting the place where Ying Jie was located.
Just come to Panyu. With this person's ability, it is not difficult to survive in Panyu, but why do you have to be a beggar?
"Have you ever heard of your Highness, risking your life to survive?"
Ji Wenjing said seriously: "According to my deduction, the south is the place of my death, and it is also the place of my birth. Sometimes, if you blindly avoid certain disasters, unpredictable changes will occur, which are even more unpredictable. It is better to take the initiative to meet the disaster, Putting myself in a desperate situation, I can survive as long as I meet a noble person who can bring me back to life."
Zhu Xuan was at a loss after hearing these mysterious and mysterious things. He did not understand this and could not judge whether it was true or false.
"Why do you still want to be a beggar when you come to meet the calamity?"
Zhu Xuan asked this doubt.
Ji Wenjing said: "This is part of my response to the fate of my fate. Beggars are humble and can hide their fate. They have helped me survive one stormy weather, and now it is the second one."
He wiped the rainwater from his palms on his clothes, sat back in front of Zhu Xuan, and continued: "I waited for nearly two years in Panyu before I could see His Highness."
"Why are you so sure that I am the one waiting for you?"
Zhu Xuan asked again.
"Because of calculations."
Ji Wenjing explained: "I can deduce that if a noble person appears today, then no one who appears at the rain shelter today is more noble than His Highness."
Zhu Xuan just smiled after hearing the explanation.
His face was full of disbelief.
"Your Highness certainly doesn't believe what I said."
Ji Wenjing solemnly said: "But I can guarantee that I will never harm His Highness. In order to repay Your Highness for helping me to avoid the disaster, I will not only manage the bank for Your Highness, but also help His Highness to protect the country. My senior brother is capable. To assist King Yan, I am not much worse than my senior brother, I can do everything he can do."
Zhu Xuan said: "I really don't believe you. Yan Guan has taken good care of him. Don't let him leave or escape. I will deal with him when I am free."
"yes!"
Yan Guan immediately arranged for two royal guards to keep an eye on Ji Wenjing.
After getting to know Ji Wenjing, Zhu Xuan left this side hospital.
The rain outside has become a little lighter, and the typhoon hasn't hit yet. It seems like it was just a warm-up before the typhoon comes.
"Your Highness, what happened to that man?"
Cen Hua continued to stay at Zhu Xuan's house, sitting under the eaves and looking at the rain falling on Zhilan Lake.
There was a pot of tea brewing on the coffee table next to him.
The aroma of tea is intoxicating.
Zhu Xuan sat down, took a sip of tea, and said, "That man is like a magic stick."
"Since he is a magic stick, His Highness will bring him back."
Cen Hua turned her head and asked.
Zhu Xuan said: "That man is mysterious and his identity is unknown. Of course, I need to control him first. What if he has a problem and I can't find him?"
Cen Hua said: "Your Highness is still thoughtful."
The rain is still falling, but a little less.
The wind seemed to be a little stronger, the wind was howling and the rain was rolling down.
According to Zhu Xuan's experience, it only takes a day for a typhoon to pass through and it will blow over quickly. As long as it leaves the scope of the typhoon, sunny weather will soon return.
The wind has gotten stronger, probably because the typhoon has started to land, and it is getting closer to Panyu.
"Are you going back yet?"
Zhu Xuan felt the strong wind blowing over him.
The trees on the shore of Zhilan Lake were about to be blown down, and their branches and leaves collided with each other, making noisy sounds.
Cen Hua shook her head and said: "How can I go back with such strong wind and heavy rain? Are you going to drive me away, Your Highness?"
"of course not."
Zhu Xuan said: "I'm bored by myself, but with you here, I can chat more alone."
Cen Hua thought about what happened that night at the barbecue, and her heart beat fast, but she didn't say anything else.
They sat quietly under the eaves and watched the rain, watching how the rain wreaked havoc on the earth.
Zhu Xuan arranged for people from Jinyiwei to venture out to contact Xu Qi to find out what the current situation was.
However, under the current conditions, even if something happened, there was nothing we could do. We couldn't go out to rescue anything during the storm. At least we had to wait until the wind stopped to provide disaster relief.
After nightfall, the wind became stronger.
The rain never stopped.
They asked Hou Xian to bring the food to the rain-watching eaves. It was not so much an eaves as a pavilion on the shore. It was convenient to enjoy the lake light. The rainwater could not blow in. It was only fifty steps in front of the soft couch. Outside the range, a pool of water was left.
"The lake is rising."
Cen Hua looked outside.
The lake water rose, submerging the built embankments.
Zhu Xuan also looked out and said calmly: "It won't be submerged, don't worry."
Their mansion is on a high ground, a certain distance from Zhilan Lake, and is very safe.
Cen Hua said: "I have never seen such a terrible typhoon in Guangxi."
While they were eating, they were watching the wind and rain.
After half an hour, the wind became stronger again.
The rain is heavier.
The wind blew through the house, making a "tiger" sound, mixed with the sound of raindrops, which sounded scary.
At this time, there was lightning and thunder.
Thick lightning appeared in the sky, and the thunder was deafening.
Cen Hua was so frightened that she threw herself into Zhu Xuan's arms.
"Little sister Hua'er, are you still afraid of thunder?"
Zhu Xuan rubbed her head and asked.
Cen Hua raised her head, jumped out quickly, and then lowered her head. It was obvious that she was afraid of thunder.
This bold girl turns out to have a weakness.
"Ignore you."
Cen Hua trotted back to the room.
Zhu Xuan had no choice but to arrange for two palace ladies brought from Yingtian to watch the girl. He was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night.
"The water in Zhilan Lake is already so high, and the rivers outside are likely to get even worse."
Zhu Xuan said worriedly.
Hou Xian, who was following him, said, "Your Highness has spent so much money on improving water conservancy and strengthening river embankments. Even if the water rises, the impact will not be great."
Zhu Xuan sighed: "I hope so."
After worrying for a while, Zhu Xuan went back to his room to rest.
When I woke up the next morning, I saw that the typhoon continued to blow with no intention of stopping.
There was darkness between heaven and earth, and there was no difference between day and evening.
"This wind force should be above Level 10."
Zhu Xuan said to himself.
He wanted to arrange for Jin Yiwei to go out to contact Xu Qi and continue to investigate other situations in the city, but he was worried about Jin Yiwei's safety, so he had no choice but to press this idea.
It wasn't until the evening that the rain stopped.
But the strong wind continued, but it was much lighter than before, returning to level 4 or 5 wind force.
Zhu Xuan couldn't care less about the dim sky and the vast ocean everywhere, so he took Hou Xianyan Guan and Zheng He and went out.
The streets outside were filled with standing water.
Although there are many drainage measures in the city, when the amount of water increases, those drainage outlets will not work at all.
They all walked in the water, and the water flooded Zhu Xuan's calves, but the drainage holes still functioned, and a steady stream of water was discharged into the sewer. It can be imagined that the sewer must be full.
Even the Pearl River cannot withstand a flood of this magnitude.
