Looking at the two cunning and crafty princes, Lin Yi smiled and said.
"Since everyone doesn't believe that today's floodwater level has decreased, we can send someone to check."
"Yesterday, I braved the great flood to return to the Imperial Palace, and the floodwaters rose to the height of the saddle pad, which shows that yesterday's flood was more than three feet high."
"And today, the floodwater level in the Imperial City is only two feet and eight inches."
In Dayou, the royal horses are generally around 130 centimeters and the height of the saddle pads from the ground is about 100 centimeters, which translates to three feet.
The reason Lin Yi could present such precise figures is all thanks to the hidden surveillance installed beside the ruins.
However, the Sixth Prince was not convinced and retorted: "Lord Lin, are you saying that all of our officials are blind and cannot distinguish that today's floodwater level has dropped?"
