Feng Yu and Chun Lu almost stayed in the cabin, and only went to the deck to breathe fresh air late at night. They overheard the crew say that the river has swelled very violently this year, and the water level has risen significantly.After the third day, it continued to rain, and there was a strong wind on the Beihe River. The boat shook so badly that it seemed that it was about to be overturned into the river several times.

Nuan Yang and a few soldiers rarely come into contact with waterways, and they are a little worried about accidents. They suggest that Fengyu go to the shore and take land instead of water. However, going by land is too time-consuming, so Fengyu still takes the risk of taking the waterway.The torrential rain continued all day long, and Feng Yu frowned as she watched the rising water level, feeling very worried.

The Beihe River is a very important canal main road, which is well managed and rarely causes floods.Yanyang is most likely to break the bank from the south of Zhongzhou to the Liujiang River in the south of the Yangtze River. The two long rivers do not meet, and they both pass through Zhongzhou and reach the south of the Yangtze River.With the water level of the Beihe River rising so high, will there be floods in the Liujiang River?Floods will break out in the Liujiang River every three to five times, and the management is quite complicated. Large and small floods will harm the downstream towns, so there are government offices in the south of the Yangtze River that specialize in managing the Liujiang River.

Feng Yu was worried when she saw the rainstorm. Nuan Yang and a few soldiers seldom walked by water. Coupled with the violent wind and rain, she vomited violently almost from the next day. She vomited whatever she ate. In just a few days, Nuan Yang's face became sharp. .Fengyu and Chunlu were fine, they were not so embarrassed, but Fengyu was also a little dizzy from the shaking.

The further south you go, the rain becomes lighter and the boat stabilizes. Fengyu lands at Lanzhou Port. Beihe cannot go directly to Yangzhou, but to Lanzhou Port. From Lanzhou Port to Yangzhou by land, you need to Change another port.Feng Yu looked at Nuan Yang and a few soldiers, and decided to go overland instead of torturing them.

Lanzhou is already the border of the south of the Yangtze River, and it is only two days to go to Yangzhou by land, Feng Yu and others stay in Lanzhou for one night.Fengyu doesn't like Lanzhou, she was abducted to Lanzhou when she was a child, and she has a bad impression.After so many years, Lanzhou seems to have not changed much, but the city in the south of the Yangtze River is obviously much more lively than the twelve states.

Businesses gather and customers come like a cloud.

The temperature was warmer than in Twelve States. Fengyu tossed and turned and didn't sleep well. She was thinking about her grandfather's condition. Nuanyang sent a soldier to Yangzhou first to inquire about Mr. Su's condition. Someone set up a trap to surround and kill Feng Yu on purpose.

Chun Lu and Nuan Yang went out to buy a carriage, the necessities on the road, and rushed to Yangzhou at dawn. Halfway through, the soldiers came back after inquiring about the news that Mr. Su was indeed seriously ill.

In addition to bringing back news that Mr. Su was seriously ill, the soldiers also brought back bad news about Su's family business.

Since the downfall of Zhenbei Hou Mansion, although there was Marshal Fang in charge, Mr. Su's status in the Jiangnan business district was not as good as before. Feng Yu followed Xie Xun to rebel from the capital, and now he is busy with business and farming in Xizhou, and the Jiangnan business district began to stand in line. , The imperial court's control over Jiangnan is deeply rooted, and businessmen value profits so much that they will not change hands easily.

Although Emperor Yuan Hui never decreed to deprive the Feng family and the Su family of their property, Mr. Su was isolated and excluded in the Jiangnan business district.When the Zhenbei Hou Mansion was in its heyday, no one dared to touch Mr. Su in the entire Yanyang business district. Everyone wanted to add to the cake, and there was no one in the Jiangnan shopping mall who could stand up to Mr. Su.But Zhenbei Hou fell, Xie Jue and Xie Xun rebelled again, and Feng Yu followed their brothers to set up a business in Xizhou, so the position of Mr. Su became very embarrassing.

There are more icing on the cake, but less charcoal in the snow.

He has experienced the warmth and coldness of human beings and the coldness of the world. The Jiangnan business district has no longer clumped together in the past few months, and gradually divided into two factions.

Listening to the few words from the soldiers, Feng Yu felt uncomfortable. Her grandfather was old and had been admired by people for many years, and he had never made a fool of himself. If a major accident happened tonight this year, he would definitely feel uncomfortable.

"Is anyone in the family in trouble?"

The soldiers shook their heads, "The news that Mr. Su is critically ill has spread, and the Su family closed their doors to thank guests, but the family is fine."

Feng Yu nodded and let Nuan Yang speed up. She hurried to Yangzhou city at sunset. Yangzhou is the most affluent city in the south of the Yangtze River. Ten miles away from heaven and earth, you can feel the tenderness and elegance of the Jiangnan water town when you approach Yangzhou City.

Nuan Yang came to Yangzhou for the first time, and couldn't help but marvel, "Our Xizhou is a den of beggars."

Chunlu laughed, although it was a bit exaggerated, it was not wrong.

The Su family's house occupies a huge area, located in the southeast, and is the most affluent residential area in Yangzhou City. It has a tall gate with red tiles, an old pagoda tree is planted at the door, and red lanterns are hung.The gate of the Su family was closed tightly, guarded by a nursing home. Feng Yu and his party entered the city secretly without attracting attention. The carriage stopped at the corner gate of the Su family mansion.

The corner door is remote, and the courtyard is deep and sparsely populated. Chunlu knocked on the door, and an old woman opened the door, "Who is it?"

Chun Lu took out the token, and the old woman exclaimed, seeing Feng Yu getting off the carriage, "Third Miss..."

Feng Yu smiled lightly, "Mother Liu."

Mama Liu was overjoyed, and hurriedly ushered people in. In front of the corner gate is the Su Family Garden, with rockery, Jiuqu Bridge, and lotus pond. Along the way, there are copper pillars one person tall, with gauze lanterns hanging on them.The lights are flickering, and the lake is faint.Passing through the nine-curved corridor is the garden, where winter flowers are in full bloom and orderly. This is a very elegant and wealthy Jiangnan house, with winding paths and fragrant flowers.

After walking for a quarter of an hour from Jiaomen to Su's old mansion, Steward Su saw Feng Yu and rushed out to greet her, "Third Miss, you are finally back. The master has been thinking about my aunt and the two girls, just come back, come back." Just fine!"

Steward Su is Su Ming's schoolboy, who has followed him since he was a child. Although he is a master and servant, he loves his brothers. The children of the housekeeper are now working in Jiangnan Commercial Firm. One of them passed the examination for a scholar and opened an academy in Yangzhou. He is famous far and wide. The sons are promising, but the housekeeper has served Su Ming for decades and never left.

"Grandpa Su, I came to the city secretly, and my identity is inconvenient. Let the servants in the mansion keep their mouths shut and don't leak the news."

"Don't worry, girl. After the letter came out, I thought that if the girl came back, she wouldn't be able to attract attention, so I gave the servants in the mansion a holiday. Now the mansion is full of my own family members. Don't worry."

"Trouble Grandpa Su, I'll go see my grandfather."

"The master drank the medicine and just fell asleep."

"It's okay, I won't quarrel with him."

Feng Yu took off her cloak, cleaned her hands and moved the lotus lightly into the room. There was a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the room. Mr. Su was in his sixtieth year and had a square face. When Feng Yu saw him two years ago, he still had a square face. He has black hair all over his head, and now he has half a hundred hairs on his temples. He is seriously ill and looks extremely thin.Fengyu's heart ached so much that she sat on the low stool beside the bed to accompany him.

"Grandfather..."

Feng Yu's voice was very soft, and Mr. Su was not a deep sleeper. When he opened his eyes and saw Feng Yu, he was very pleasantly surprised, "Ah Yu? Is my grandfather sick and confused? How did you see Ah Yu?"

"Grandfather, it's me!" Feng Yu sat on the bed with red eyes, seeing Su Ming struggling to get up, she hurriedly took the soft cushion on the inside for him, "Slow down."

After she helped Su Ming up, she lit the lamp, and the room lit up. Su Ming kept coughing. Feng Yu poured a glass of warm water, but saw blood spots on the handkerchief her grandfather used to cover her mouth. When Feng Yu turned around, Su Ming hid himself again. Handkerchief, Fengyu's heart was beating wildly, why is she so sick.

Su Ming looked at Fengyu with attachment and reluctance. He hadn't seen his grandparents for two years, and he missed her so much. Fengyu endured the soreness in his heart. Just as he was about to talk to his grandfather, he darkened his face, "Ah Zheng really didn't Properness, why did I send you a letter, what is the situation in Yangzhou now, how did you get involved in danger, and if the state government found out, how could you escape? Hurry up, my grandfather has no regrets seeing you, let’s go tonight, don’t be here Stay here."

If his daughter Su Yuejiao came back, he wouldn't chase her away, but it was Fengyu.

Feng Yu is now tied to the same boat with the Xie family brothers, the state government will use her head to claim credit for Emperor Yuan Hui, how dare he let Feng Yu stay in Yangzhou.

"Grandfather, don't worry. Grandpa Su has dismissed the servants in the family. No one will know that I came to Yangzhou. You can rest assured of your illness. If you recover, I will leave!" Feng Yu's voice gently comforted her.

"Grandfather...he's not going to get better!" Su Ming was extremely peaceful, seeing through life and death.
