Two days later, the storm still did not stop.
Ganquan Palace.
Even though it was raining heavily, it didn't stop Ying Yun from making paper.
"It's finally done. In the future, I won't need bamboo chips to go to the toilet.”
Looking at the soft paper in his hand, Ying Yun revealed a satisfied expression.
Right at this moment, a servant walked into the room and cupped his hands towards Ying Yun."Young Master, His Majesty has sent an order for you to enter the palace.”
Ying Yun was stunned and frowned.”
"I don't know about this slave."
Ying Yun revealed a puzzled expression.
However, he still put away the paper, took the umbrella, and walked towards Zhangtai Palace.
In Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng paced back and forth in the room with a grave expression.
Standing in front of him were Li Si, Feng Quji, Wang Jian, and Wang Ben.
At this moment, Ying Yun walked in from outside.
"Your son greets Imperial Father. I wonder why Imperial Father called your son here?”
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Yun and said," Father, I heard General Wang Jian say that a few days ago, you predicted that there would be a rainstorm in three days. But, it happened three days later.”
Ying Yun didn't deny it and cupped his hands,"That's right."”
"Then can you tell when the storm will stop?”
Ying Yun turned around and looked at the sky outside."It's hard to judge because of the heavy rain, but I guess it'll take at least ten days.”
"What? Ten days? How is that possible? We just received news from Longxi that the Great Yue Clan seems to be planning to invade Great Qin.”
" If he attacks in this weather, it'll be extremely disadvantageous for us," Li Si said.”
Ying Yun sneered and said," Prime Minister Li, you're worrying too much. The Da Yue Clan and the Xiongnu are mainly cavalry. Do you think it's beneficial to send troops with such a heavy rain?"”
" That's right," Ying Zheng said." This weather is indeed not conducive to sending troops."”
"What we need to consider now is not the invasion of the enemy, but the consequences of the continuous downpour."”
" Floods happen every year when it rains," Ying Zheng said." This time, the rain is so heavy. I wonder how the situation is like in various places."”
Ying Yun cupped his hands and said," Imperial Father, your son suggests that we send people to investigate immediately. If a flood is discovered, we should immediately send people to dredge it. We can't wait for the flood to occur before rescuing it. That would be too late."”
"You're right, Prime Minister Li. I'll leave this matter to you." Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said.”
Li Si cupped his hands." Don't worry, Your Majesty. I've already sent people to investigate. There should be news soon."”
Ying Yun continued," In addition, once the flood occurs, the prices of grain in various places will definitely rise. Therefore, Imperial Father has to issue an imperial edict to prohibit the price of grain from rising. Those who disobey will be beheaded.”
"Alright, Prime Minister Li, do as Ying Yun says.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Seeing Ying Yun's consideration, Wang Jian sighed and said,"If I had listened to Young Master and moved the camp to a higher place, it wouldn't have been flooded.”
"Unfortunately, it's too late to regret now.”
Ying Yun said," I thought you would listen to me, but who would have thought…But forget it. Since things have already happened, I can only try my best to think of a way to salvage it."”
Looking at Ying Zheng, Ying Yun asked,"Father, is there anything else? If not, I will take my leave.”
He still had to go back to making paper.
" Go back," Ying Zheng said." Father will inform you if there's anything."”
"Alright."
After Ying Yun left, Li Si suddenly cast his gaze underground.
The paper that Ying Yun had created had unknowingly fallen to the ground.
Li Si picked it up and examined it carefully.""What is this?"
Wang Jian took a look and said with a smile,"Isn't this just a piece of cloth?" What a fuss."
Li Si touched the surface." This isn't cloth. It seems to be made of another material."”
Ying Zheng looked at the paper in Li Si's hand and said,""Show it to me."
Li Si immediately handed the paper to Ying Zheng.
After Ying Zheng took it, he examined it carefully, but found that he had never seen it before.
"This thing doesn't seem to be cloth, but its softness doesn't seem to be inferior to cloth.”
"Your Majesty, this thing seems to have fallen from Young Master Yingyun's body."”
"You said this is Yun 'er's?"
" Where did he get this thing?" Ying Zheng asked with a puzzled look." The material doesn't look like cloth…"
"If you want to know what it is, you might have to ask Young Master.”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
Chu.
Xiang Liang stood in front of the window and looked at the torrential rain outside, revealing a smile.
Just then, Xiangyu walked in from outside.
"Uncle, many places in Longxi have been flooded. Even the official road to Baiyue has been flooded.”
Xiang Liang slowly turned his head and smiled." The heavens are really helping me. Did you follow my instructions and go all out to purchase food?"”
" I've already followed Uncle's instructions and purchased the grains from the surrounding counties," said Xiangyu." I'm even buying the grains from Xianyang City."”
"Alright, when the people lack food, it will cause a riot. At that time, we will open the granaries to release food. Not only can we buy the hearts of the people, but we can also take the opportunity to create momentum.”
"Uncle, this move is really brilliant. I admire you," said Xiangyu with a face full of admiration.”
Just as Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu were buying food.
Deep in the mountains of Chu.
Zhang Liang sat in the thatched cottage, looking at the storm outside.
At this moment, a burly man who had been following him pushed open the door and walked in.
"Sir, the continuous rainstorm has caused floods in many places. Not only that, I heard that many wealthy merchants are buying food in large quantities.”
"Isn't this better?" Zhang Liang smiled. If the food was taken away, it would cause the people to lack food. Once the people did not have food to eat, there would be riots.”
Looking out of the window, Zhang Liang said," Besides, it has been raining for ten days in a row. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I want the world to know that Ying Zheng is a tyrant."”
"Sir, what do you plan to do?" The burly man asked.
"Have you heard of meteorites falling from the sky?"”
"Yes, I've heard of it. It's said that every time a disaster occurs, there will be a meteorite landing as a warning."”
" That's right," Zhang Liang said with a smile," It has been raining for ten days in a row. We can use this opportunity to let all the people of Great Qin know that this rainstorm is a punishment from the heavens for Ying Zheng.”
