Praying for Rain!
The night ended and dawn arrived. A new day arrived as usual.
This day seemed to be the same as usual, but also a little different.
The sacred land of the Yin-Yang School.
The first thing the Yin-Yang School members did when they got up was to look up at the sky.
When they saw the cloudless blue sky, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
"How can it rain in such good weather!”
"That arrogant State Preceptor Han Xu, today will be the day he loses his reputation!”
"It's a pity that we can't go to Xianyang and personally see Han Xu's reputation fall!”
"Lord Jiao has brought a voice transmission artifact, so he can tell us what happened in Xianyang immediately. We only need to wait by the Venerable One's side to know the news of Han Xu's downfall!”
"Hahaha, I'm really looking forward to it. Go!”
…………
The Holy Land of the scholarly faction.
The Half-Saint Xun Zi sighed." There is no sign of rain. The world is going to be in chaos. That Nation Master Han Xu has played a trick."”
"Indeed, saving the world can only be done by the scholarly faction.”
…………
A treasured farm.
The head of the farm looked worriedly at the drought-stricken fields, his expression full of disappointment.
"Great Qin Imperial Advisor, if you don't have the ability, don't give us hope…"
…………
At this moment, similar emotions appeared in every corner of Great Qin.
Three years of drought, almost no harvest.
The commoners had been waiting for the rain for a long time.
If no one in the Imperial Court prayed for rain, it would be fine. However, the news of the Imperial Advisor praying for rain spread throughout Great Qin, and it would definitely succeed.
Countless hopes gathered.
At this moment, there was no sign of rain. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
As such, the entire Great Qin was shrouded in a layer of gloom.
At this moment, in Xianyang, the top floor of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
Han Xu was dressed in a white robe as he looked at the entire Great Qin.
In his eyes, the sky above Great Qin was no longer as colorful as before, but gray and black.
This showed that the commoners were in a bad mood.
Anxious, anxious, worried, disappointed, and all sorts of negative emotions covered Great Qin.
"State Preceptor."
Wei Liao walked over with a serious expression,""News has come from all over the world. Because it hasn't rained yet, the people are all resentful.”
He deliberately made the situation sound lighter so as not to put too much pressure on Han Xu.
However, what he did not know was that the world in Han Xu's eyes was clearer than the information he had gathered.
The power of the common people gathered in Han Xu. No one in this world understood the emotions of the common people better than him.
Han Xu's expression was still calm as he said lightly,"Years of war and three years of drought. The people have accumulated countless negative emotions. It's time for them to explode. Otherwise, if they accumulate for too long, it will be even more dangerous.”
"Moreover, the more you suppress your emotions, the higher your outburst will be.”
"Some people want the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, but I want to make them more disappointed, and the greater the surprise!”
"There's no sign of rain at all. Will it really rain?" Wei Liao asked worriedly.”
"Have I ever broken my promise?" Han Xu chuckled.”
Wei Liao was startled and shook his head.
Han Xu smiled confidently and said,""Then trust me!"
Wei Liao could clearly feel his confidence. He took a deep breath and said,"His Majesty and the Hundred Schools of Philosophy have arrived. It's time for the Imperial Preceptor to go.”
Han Xu waved his wide sleeves, and his feet lit up as he disappeared.
…………
Outside the south gate of Xianyang Palace was a wide square.
On the square, there was a 90-foot-tall platform.
Around the high platform, some temporary pergolas were built. Under the pergolas were some tables and stools.
At this moment, these pergolas were already filled with people.
On the east and west sides were the Hundred Schools of Philosophy and the Xiongnu envoy group.
The representatives of the Yin-Yang School, the Confucian School, the Legalism School, the Mixed School, and the Military School were all sitting in the awning.
Around the pergola were the crowded figures of the commoners.
The north side of the awning was the main seat, where the ruler and minister of Great Qin sat.
At this moment, all the officials had entered, but Ying Zheng had not arrived yet.
The scene was very crowded and lively.
Even the Hundred Schools of Philosophy and the officials found it novel.
After all, this was the first time they had seen such a scene.
The doctor, Zhao Gao, narrowed his eyes and looked at the scorching sun above his head."Prime Minister Li, do you think it will rain today?”
Li Si sat there without smiling.
"How about a bet?" If it rains, you will resign and retire.”
Zhao Gao frowned." You seem to have a lot of confidence in the state preceptor. But everyone knows that even saints can't control the weather. Although the state preceptor is strong, he hasn't reached the level of a saint, right?"”
Li Si could not help but recall the scene when he met the state preceptor that day.
The deep memory that the state preceptor had left him, when he recalled it now, it still made his heart tremble.
Although he also felt that the state preceptor could not control the weather.
However…he felt that this terrifying state preceptor would not do something he was not confident of.
"Do you dare to bet? If you don't dare, then don't talk nonsense.”
Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes. He also recalled the matter of him seeking an audience with the state preceptor that day.
However, his luck was bad. The state preceptor did not want to see him at all. Not only did he make a wasted trip, but he was also reprimanded by the state preceptor.
Since then, he did not dare to disturb the state preceptor anymore.
Therefore, he was afraid and hated the state preceptor.
"I still don't believe it will rain in such good weather, but I won't bet with you."”
" Hmph!" Li Si snorted." Don't you feel ashamed to be so timid?"”
If it was someone else, Zhao Gao wouldn't hesitate. But now that they were talking about Han Xu, he was really scared.
He snorted,"Anyway, I just don't believe that it will rain today!"”
Li Si looked up at the sky.
The sky was blue and cloudless.
Could he really pray for rain?
He started to worry.
At this moment, the Xiongnu envoy group suddenly burst into laughter.
"This King has never seen such sunny weather before. Your Great Qin actually said that it would rain today, making This King laugh so hard that his teeth would fall out!”
"Hahahaha…"
"Great Qin's people only know how to deceive themselves!"
"The Great Qin Imperial Advisor is going to lose face today!”
"Shame is secondary; so many people believed in him and thought that there was hope in their lives, but Great Qin's Imperial Advisor deceived them. If I were a citizen of Great Qin, I would be heartbroken to death!”
"Great Qin's citizens are too pitiful!"
The Left Xiongnu King Chan Dun's mocking laughter was extremely piercing.
Many people nearby were unhappy when they heard this.
The leader of the scholarly faction, Fu Sheng, said lightly," Today is not over yet. The rain prayer has not yet begun. How can we know what the result will be? The King of the Left of the Xiongnu is too early."”
"What?" Chan Dun sneered. Could it be that the Confucians were also self-deceiving? You've read so many books, and you're daydreaming?”
"You…"
The scholarly scholars were enraged.
"I agree with the Xiongnu Left King. Even though I am from Great Qin, I feel that we should face reality and not daydream.”
At this moment, Jiao Su of the Yin-Yang School said indifferently,""Anyone can tell that it won't rain today. I think it's better to let the people disperse. Otherwise, it's a waste of time and disappointment.”
When the Xiongnu Left King saw that someone was supporting him, his laughter became even more ear-piercing.
He only felt that the anger he had accumulated at the city gate had now dissipated.
"Praying for rain?"
Chan Dun sneered," Does he really think he's a god? What does Han Xu have to do something that even saints don't dare to do?!"”
Great Qin's officials all looked furious, but they did not know how to retort.
After all, they didn't have any confidence in themselves.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
At this moment, a dignified voice sounded.
The officials quickly stood up and bowed.""Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Chan Dun's eyes were filled with ferocity as he stared at the newcomer.
The Hundred Schools of Philosophy and the others also bowed.
No matter what their goal was, at this moment, they were all citizens of Qin.
Ying Zheng strode over with a majestic gait. He swept his majestic gaze across the crowd, then said in a clear voice,""The auspicious time has arrived. Imperial Preceptor, please pray for rain!”
"Imperial Preceptor, please!"
"Imperial Preceptor, please!"
Voices echoed in the surroundings and spread in all directions.
At this moment, a five-colored light shot out from the sky. Countless people hurriedly looked up.
Within the rays of light, the handsome Imperial Advisor Han Xu in white stepped into the air and stepped on the rays of light.
There is a gentleman, full of ears, wearing a hat like a star.
At this moment, all the citizens felt that they had seen a god!
