In the time it took for a single stick of incense to burn, Jiang Xin Zhi took Jiang Ruan and left without a care and the slightest loss or disadvantage, leaving behind Jiang Quan who was suffocating from suppressed anger. Unfortunately the Jiang Zhi Xin of today had received meritorious accomplishment from the army, and his temperament had greatly changed. No longer was he that easy to handle. Yet, Jiang Su Su even thought to add fuel to the fire, "Father, look at Da Jiejie...."

"Shut up!" Jiang Quan was still raging. Seeing Jiang Su Su's weak and feeble stature he couldn't help feeling even more agitated as he stated, "If you're stained by a filthy spirit, don't walk around. Go back to your own courtyard!" After that, he glared at Jiang Chao and quickly left.

Jiang Su Su could only watch Jiang Quan leave with astonishment while a trace of hatred flashed in Jiang Chao's eyes. The two siblings kept silent, but, at that very moment, they hated both Jiang Xin Zhi and Jiang Ruan bitterly.

After a peaceful night, the next day at first light when Jiang Ruan woke up, Lu Zhu stepped in with rose pastries[1]. "The rain is easing. It looks as though it's going to stop."

She looked somewhat worried, knowing a little of Jiang Ruan's plan. How great would it be if the rain stopped now.

Jiang Ruan smiled faintly and looked out from the window. The dense raindrops had become sparse. The water dripped down much slower from the eaves. The air started to become milder, sweeping away the dark clouds from the past few days. It seemed that the sky would clear up before long.

Lian Qiao handed the boiled red dates and cassia honey to Jiang Ruan. "It's not the time yet. Just wait."

Jiang Ruan took a sip of the honey water and tapped her fingers on the table unconsciously.

Hmm, the rain looked like it's going to clear up, but actually... it was the rising wind that foreshadowed the coming storm.

On the edge of the Bo Chang reservoir, the reservoir chief wiped his sweat, running back and forth eagerly, constantly flattering the highly respected nobles in front of him. "The water has been brought under control and the reservoir is very stable. After observing the rain over the past few days, it seems to have dwindled down a lot and it will probably clear up soon. The flood control is all due to the work of His Highness, Eighth Prince, and Second Young Master Li."
