The heavy rain has lasted for many days, the black clouds turn the ink, enveloping the entire capital, as if the whole city will be dragged into the dark abyss at any time, the white rain jumps beads, like a manic little beast, constantly drilling into the house, but it is blown away by the strong wind, Li Mi looks downstairs, the real water is like the sky.

It was also last night that thunder broke the mountain, and the rainstorm from the north was like flying turbulence, at this time the south of the Yangtze River was in June, the sour wind entered the bones and gave birth to the bitter cold.

It has been a few months since Li Mi stepped down, and Zhu Yijun had no intention of calling for revenge, Li Mi just lived in the capital, and ordered the inner factory to investigate the news everywhere and secretly make preparations.

It's just that the wind and rain are unpredictable, and after last year's freezing, this year ushered in a torrential rain disaster!

It has been raining heavily for several days in Beijing, the water depth of Chang'an Avenue has reached five feet, the entire Jingshi is a vast ocean, the roads everywhere are like big rivers, countless houses have collapsed, and the deaths and injuries of people and animals are incalculable.

This year is leap June, and the rainy season in June will only be hard for many days, the government and the people cannot travel, the ditch is congested, the city walls have collapsed, the houses have been destroyed, and the big trees in the Huangmu Factory have been washed clean by the water.

Because of the impact of the torrential rain, Cao Yun could not enter Beijing, lost more than 8,300 stones of grain, drowned 20 or 30 soldiers who escorted Cao grain, and countless coastal residents drifted, which was really a natural disaster and ruthless.

This is a rare flood in the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, in addition to the Beijing Division, all parts of the country have been in an emergency, Huguang Huangzhou Mansion sent a big flood, Wuchang, Chengtian, Yunyang, Yuezhou and Changde and other prefectures were first in a big drought, and then heavy rain.

Ningguo Mansion and Huizhou, Taiping and other prefectures in Nanzhili, and Yanzhou Mansion in Zhejiang Province also had torrential rains and flash floods, and I don't know how many deaths and injuries there were.

There was a lot of rain on the Jingshi side, and even the city walls collapsed in several places, but there was drought and famine on the Shandong side!

Li Mi knew that this was the Ming Dynasty was experiencing the impact of the Xiaoice River period, so from the beginning of the June rains, he saw the signs and warned Ye Xianggao early to prepare for disaster prevention and relief.

The geography is okay, it can be surveyed, but the time is unpredictable, even the people of Qin Tianjian will not make judgments, let alone Li Mi?

So Ye Xianggao didn't take it to heart, and in June, the rainstorm still didn't stop, so Ye Xianggao was in a hurry, and came over with Li Tingji to find Li Mi.

Li Mi had already made preparations, and made Qin Tianjian's rainfall data over the years into an intuitive table and handed it over to Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji.

In fact, as early as May, Li Mi had already begun to worry about this matter, and at that time, it was Matteo Ricci and Xu Guangqi who came to find Li Mi.

After Matteo Ricci entered the court, in addition to preaching, he also brought Western mathematics and other intellectual disciplines, and translated "The Original Geometry" with Xu Guangqi.

The book was written in Greek by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, and the missionary, who was fluent in both Greek and Latin, translated it with Xu Guangqi, an enlightened official of the Ming Dynasty.

Matteo Ricci was amazed by the ancient Chinese mathematical texts, not so much to spread Western mathematics as to learn from each other.

Although Xu Guangqi is proficient in Western studies, there is a gap in concepts and methods, and many things cannot be understood.

No one expected that Li Mi would be so proficient in geometry!

Matteo Ricci was also ecstatic, and took Xu Guangqi with him, so he often came to visit Li Mi, and thanks to Li Mi's help, the translation work was carried out smoothly.

Li Mi also took the opportunity to ask for the hydrological data of Qin Tianjian, and after some calculations such as probability planning, he drew an intuitive chart.

Qin Tianjian's things are all confidential, and casual snooping is often related to rebellion, and Li Mi doesn't want to show people easily.

It's just that Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji didn't believe him, and he was helpless, so he took out this thing.

Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji were convinced, and they were also shocked to see that Li Mi was still proficient in Western studies.

Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji reported to Zhu Yijun, falsely claiming that they had Qin Tianjian sort out this information, and Zhu Yijun did not suspect him, and did not suspect Li Mi.

At that time, Li Mi, the mad dog Yushi, left the court, and many corruption and dereliction of duty also revived.

But the heavy rain made it impossible for the Beijing division to operate, and Zhu Yijun couldn't ignore it, so he ordered the household department to send 200,000 stone of Taimi to level the rice to curb the soaring grain prices, and asked the Taifu Temple to send 100,000 taels of silver to help the victims of the disaster in the capital, and asked the Ministry of Industry to repair the canal and dredge it as soon as possible.

If it's just like this, it's just that, and the torrential rain continues, and those who have a heart gradually jump out.

Li Mi is a person sitting at home, and the pot comes from the sky.

Concubine Zheng and Zhu Changxun inquired about the inside story, and even instigated Wang Ruolin and others in the matter of Li Keyou, and gave it to the emperor, saying that the continuous rainstorm was God's punishment and God's retribution to the court and evil ministers!

He also impeached the East Palace for not studying for five years, the ministers were leisurely, did nothing, didn't care, the ministers formed a party for personal gain, the prince formed a gang and so on.

When it came to the prince, Zhu Yijun was very attentive and asked Wang An to send Dongchang to investigate, and found out that the hydrological data was drawn by Li Mi, and he was even more furious!

He originally wanted to recall Li Mi, but there were no steps to go down, but now it's good, Li Mi actually began to covet Qin Tianjian!

What made Zhu Yijun angry was that after the news spread, no one thought that Li Mi had bad intentions, and most of them preached Li Mi's unpredictable prophet, and blamed the court for ignoring Li Mi's warnings and persuasions!

Li Mi has been cut to the people, and there are still so many supporters, and Zhu Yijun is even more displeased.

And Zheng Guifei and Zhu Changxun added fuel to the fire, and asked Jiang Hao to give the household department to the matter, and asked the emperor to preside over the suburban temple sacrifices, the imperial court, the daily lecture, and listen to the words and begs for people, financial management and other six things, so as to eliminate disasters and eliminate disasters.

What Li Mi did was a good thing, warning in advance, and letting the cabinet prevent and relieve disasters, but after Zheng Guifei and Zhu Changxun made trouble, it completely changed its taste.

In the end, Zhu Yijun was put on the blame, and after a comparison, he knew how Zhu Yijun couldn't bear it.

In the eyes of the people, Li Mi did not predict the prophet and predicted the heavy rain, even if he was driven out by the imperial court, he still cared about the people and did not hesitate to take the risk of admonishment, but the imperial court did nothing and did not respond enough to Li Mi's advice.

did not praise Zhu Yijun's efforts to stabilize grain prices and disaster relief, but these officials thought that this was the evil of the court, so that God punished him and made Zhu Yijun carry this black cauldron!

Zhu Yijun naturally took all of these out on Li Mi!

Li Mi also has a hard time, and now that he has been cut to the people, Zhu Yijun will not lock him up again, right?

So Zhu Yijun asked Lu Jiamao to come over again and warned Li Mi.

Li Mi was also helpless, and said that Lao Tzu kindly reminded him that he had such a result?

However, Li Mi is not a person who feels sorry for himself, and he was wronged in Zhu Yijun's case for a day or two, let alone once or twice, as long as he can help the victims in time, Li Mi will endure it.

Zhu Yijun saw that Li Mi's oil and salt did not enter, and sprinkled the fire on Zhu Changluo's body, blaming him for being the prince, but he did nothing, but King Fu took out private money for disaster relief, which won Zhu Yijun's great favor.

Zhu Changluo also often comes to visit Li Mi, every time he is like a thief, but also to hide people's eyes, Li Mi is also benevolent to him, although he can't help too much in government affairs, but he can provide him with a lot of information and suggestions.

It's just that this time it is indeed Zhu Changxun who has taken the initiative, Zhu Yijun has already sent Dongchang Fanzi and Jinyi Guard to guard Li Mi's private residence every day, and the actions of the inner factory have also been greatly restricted.

After all, the inner factory is still nominally controlled by Chen Ju, and he only turned a blind eye to Li Mi's private transfer of his cronies from the inner factory, and if the limelight is too tight, he can't let it go anymore.

In the end, Li Mi was short of manpower, and it was difficult to travel in the heavy rain, so he endured it during this time.

Today, I was also watching the rain upstairs, and seeing that the torrential rain was like a river, pouring more than once, Li Mi was also worried.

After a while, Suo Changsheng walked up and said to Li Mi: "Wei Zhongxian is here. ”

Li Mi didn't think about it, nodded at him and said, "Let him in." ”

Regarding Wei Zhongxian, Li Mi is also lucky, but he didn't expect that to come to this point, Tian Yi, Wang An and Chen Ju were unreliable, but in the end, Wei Zhongxian could still come in handy.

Tian Yi, Wang An and others are loyal to Zhu Yijun in the final analysis, and after Li Mi was expelled by Zhu Yijun, they were able to distinguish between right and wrong, observe the overall situation, and they could not hide from the emperor and make some small actions that were not visible.

But Wei Zhongxian is different, his ambition is big enough, he is bold enough, he is a person who dares to make a desperate bet, the reason why he can have today's achievements, he knows that no matter how he can't bypass Li Mi, so he often comes to Li Mi here to pass on some news.

Although Wei Zhongxian was frightened by Zhen Mi and was really obedient to Zhen Mi, but now that Li Mi has lost his position and lives in the capital, Wei Zhongxian is still so dedicated, Li Mi is a little puzzled.

"The slave has seen the lord." Wei Zhongxian was still humble and frightened, but Li Mi was smiling kindly.

"Li has been cut to the people, why should Father-in-law Wei be so promoted?"

Wei Zhongxian shook his head and said to Li Mi: "The lord is not a genius, the dragon swims in shallow water, sooner or later he will make a comeback, if I, Wei Zhongxian, don't even have this bit of eyesight, where can I mess around in the palace?" ”

Wei Zhongxian is also honest, the words of Long You in shallow water are not something that can be used casually, it can be seen that he really doesn't have much to hide in front of Li Mi.

However, Li Mi was not a person who bought it easily, and stared at Wei Zhongxian for a long time before asking him.

"Tell me, what is the purpose of running so diligently?"

Wei Zhongxian saw the light in Li Mi's eyes, and he didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said to Li Mi: "Yes, the slave doesn't hide it from the lord, and the slave recognized a wrongdoer in the palace...... She's a discerning person, so that the slave is a good student and befriended the lord......"

Li Mi still knows a little about Wei Zhongxian's history, the reason why Wei Zhongxian is favored is because of his palace food, is a palace maid named Ke, this palace maid is Zhu Youxiao's nurse, Zhu Youxiao obeys the nurse's words, this appreciates Wei Zhongxian, Zhu Youxiao is addicted to carpentry and play, and the power falls into the hands of Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family.

"You're a Hakka?" Li Mi also asked bluntly.

"Hakka?" However, Wei Zhongxian was confused, shook his head at Li Mi and said: "The slave doesn't know any Hak, the slave is the little palace maid who serves the prince in the East Palace, Baba ......"

"Baba?" Li Mi was also taken aback, Baba is the illegitimate daughter of Guan Yingniang and Yang Yuan, and became a palace maid in order to follow Zhu Changluo, I have heard that she regards Zhu Changluo's son as her own, and the nickname of the Hakka family is Baba, can it be said that this little girl is the Hakka family in history?!!!
