Qin Tian Jian, Qin Tian Tai.
Li Er and Yuan Tiangang stared blankly at the torrential rain in front of them. The two of them did not say a word, and the atmosphere was quite strange.
After a moment, Li Er looked at Yuan Tiangang and shook his head." Heavenly Master Yuan, explain."”
Yuan Tiangang was on the verge of tears. What the hell was there to explain? What I read was clearly a lucky divination. The divination didn't say that there would be a rainstorm. Who the hell knew what was going on?
Of course, Yuan Tiangang did not dare to say these words out loud. If he really said it out loud, his head would be gone.
"That…Your Majesty, as the saying goes, there is misfortune in good fortune, and misfortune in good fortune. It is inevitable that there will be some deviation in the divination, but the general direction will not be wrong.”
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. This storm will pass.”
Hearing this, Li Er felt that it made sense. Such a heavy rainstorm shouldn't last long, right?
The two of them watched the storm and waited.
Two hours, four hours, six hours, six hours…
The storm continued, showing no signs of weakening.
Li Er looked at Yuan Tiangang again." Heavenly Master Yuan, explain again."”
Yuan Tiangang's face turned green. He wished he could charge into the sky and tear apart this dark cloud.
It was too embarrassing. He had divined for half his life, but he had never been so humiliated like today.
Moreover, it was a slap in the face in front of Li Er.
"That…Your Majesty, rain is water, water is wealth, and wealth is blessing.”
"The downpour from the heavens also indicates that good fortune will befall the Great Tang. This Penniless Priest swears that the Great Tang will have a joyous occasion in the near future!”
Yuan Tiangang was really out of words. He just wanted to recite the wedding song and get through this stage first.
He didn't believe that the storm would last forever.
"Report!"
Just as Yuan Tiangang finished speaking, an urgent report came.
Li Er's face was livid." Pass it on."
A sentry dragged an urgent report and walked up to the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor, kneeling down to present it.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the West Border Pass. There seems to be some strange movements in Tubo.”
Li Er ignored the sentry and turned to look at Yuan Tiangang." This is the happy event you mentioned?”
Yuan Tiangang did not hesitate at all. He raised his hand and gave himself two tight slaps.
"Humph." Li Er snorted coldly." Celestial Master Yuan, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation.”
"Otherwise, there is no need for the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor to exist. You will disappear with the Imperial Astronomical Supervisor.”
" Yes, I obey…" Yuan Tiangang could no longer maintain his pretentious temperament and hurriedly bowed.
"Take care of yourself!" Li Eryi flung his sleeves and turned to leave.
Yuan Tiangang looked up at the sky in a daze." God, are you kidding me?!"”
……
Li Er returned to the royal study and first dealt with the urgent report from the West Border Pass.
In recent years, Tubo had often harassed the western border of the Tang Empire. Although this action was a headache for Li Er, it was still within his tolerance range.
As long as they strengthened the defense of the western border and transferred some soldiers from the surrounding provinces and counties, it would be fine.
The thing that gave Li Er the biggest headache was the rainstorm.
After returning from the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, Li Er believed Lin Zixuan's words more and more.
This storm might be real.
If the situation continued to develop like this, it would definitely become a disaster.
Most importantly, Li Eryi had no way to deal with the impending disaster.
The level of technology in ancient times was a bit low. In the face of natural disasters, those in power could only sigh and sigh. There was nothing they could do.
"Sigh, we can only pray that what Yuan Tiangang said is true. Otherwise, our people will be in trouble.”
Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished. Li Er's prayers were useless.
It had been raining for a month.
Of course, the storm did not rain 24 hours a day. It would stop for a few hours in between.
But it was useless.
The rain was so heavy, what was the use of stopping for a few hours?
The drainage system of the palace was not bad. Now, the water had turned into a river.
Not to mention Chang 'an City and the farmland, the water was almost over their knees.
Now that the famine had occurred, the food supply in Chang 'an City had increased like crazy. Now, it had increased by dozens of times.
At this price, many commoners could not buy food.
Those big grain stores, as well as the five surnames and seven surnames, all held onto their grain tightly.
He wanted to make a fortune when the grain price was at its peak.
Now, Chang 'an City was filled with cries of grief, and everyone was dissatisfied with Li Er, the emperor.
The people of ancient times were very superstitious. Usually, when there was a natural disaster, they would think that the emperor had offended the heavens and that the heavens had sent a natural disaster.
Faced with the complaints of the people and the coercion of the civil and military officials, Li Er actually issued an edict of sin.
He also burned his watch to worship heaven, as if he was admitting his sins to heaven, and prayed for heaven's forgiveness.
However, it was still useless.
In the royal study.
Li Eryi's face was full of sorrow and pain. His face was very haggard, and his eyes were bloodshot. One look and one could tell that he was suffering from internal heat.
" Sigh…" Li Er let out a long sigh and looked at the officials in front of him. Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and the others.
"My dear ministers, the torrential rain has caused a disaster, food prices have soared, and the people are in dire straits. Do you have a solution?”
Fang Xuanling and the others lowered their heads, not saying a word. They really had no countermeasures.
Li Er was furious.
When you forced me to issue an edict of self-sin, each of you was more eloquent than the other.
Now that the Self-Condemning Edict was useless, they had all become mute?
"Trash!" Li Eryi slapped the table, his face furious.
"We deserve to die. We are guilty!"
"I don't want you to die. I really want you to think of a way!”
"Eat my salary every day. At the critical moment, you can't point to any of them. What's the use of me having you!”Li Er roared.
The ministers were scolded, but no one dared to say anything.
If he spoke now, he would be courting death.
However, it was not a good thing that no one spoke.
Fang Xuanling lowered his head and thought of an idea.
"Your Majesty, I have an idea that is not an idea. Are you willing to listen to it?”
"Don't talk so much nonsense. Hurry up and say it!" Li Er shouted coldly.
"Yes." Fang Xuanling cupped his fists and said in a deep voice,"Your Majesty, do you still remember who was right about the storm?”
Eh? Stunned, Li Eryi narrowed his eyes at Fang Xuanling.
"Your Majesty, since this person can predict the storm, he might have a solution to it."”
"Your Majesty, why don't you ask this expert for advice?”
Li Eryi felt that it made sense.
"Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, listen up!”
"Your subject is here!"
"Follow me out of the palace!"
"Yes!"
……
On Steamed Bun Mountain, Lin Chen stood in front of the window with his three cute children, sighing as they watched the storm.
"Sigh, this storm is endless.”
"I can't live anymore." Lin Zixuan sighed.
"Isn't that so? It's suffering." Lin Zimo also sighed.
Lin Chen pursed his lips." It doesn't taste good.”
"Dad, big sister, second sister, the hotpot is ready. Can we eat now?”Lin Zihao blinked his big, adorable eyes and asked.
"It's open? Let's eat!"
"Ha, it smells so good!"
If Li Er saw this scene, he would probably go crazy with anger.
You guys are eating so well, yet you're still sighing. Are you deliberately mocking me?
