Feng Yi saw Yun Zhao's nervous expression and was immediately amused. He said with a smile, "I'm leaving the palace to inspect the river channels. I'll probably be back in a little over a month."
Song Yunzhao looked at Feng Yi in surprise. 'Inspect the river channels? So suddenly?'
"Why the sudden need to inspect the river channels? The flood season is still a long way off." Song Yunzhao felt a little uneasy for some reason. She couldn't quite remember if this event was in the book.
'Besides, I'm about to give birth, yet he's choosing to leave the palace now, and for a whole month at that.'
Feng Yi nodded. "It is still a long way from the flood season, but last year's corruption case uncovered by the Ministry of Personnel involved the embezzlement of silver meant for river channel construction. I have to go see for myself how the repairs are progressing. Don't worry, I will definitely be back before you give birth."
