Chapter 814: It Doesn't Rain

After the wind and snow, the drizzle came, after March, and after April.

Wu Ming looked at the sky and worried.

After a rain in February, no rain fell.

The fields are arid and cannot be cultivated.

The people are anxious.

She was more anxious as an emperor.

Today I am ready to pray for rain. If it doesn't work out, gossip will spread, which will be detrimental to politics.

Wu Ming said: "The sky is cloudless, the sky is sunny, where is it raining again." "It's even harder to be worried.

Yuying reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, change your clothes, it's almost time." ”

Wu Ming worriedly changed into his dress and walked to the altar.

Two hours later, the ceremony ended.

Wu Ming looked at the sky again, there was no cloud in the blue sky, completely disappointed, and returned to the palace gloomily.

Two days later, rumors swirled.

To Wu Ming's surprise, the rumors pointed to Wu Yunzhao instead of her unfavorable governance.

Wu Ming was amused and sighed: "I don't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or ... ”

Yuying said: "Your Majesty, bring the Third Highness to ask, don't offend anyone." ”

Wu Ming couldn't help but laugh.

walked to the window and stood still, looked at the sun, and said with a smile: "The number of people Yun Zhao has offended is uncountable. Everyone has one mouth. When the words come out of the mouth, it has nothing to do with the mouth. After all, it's a big move. ”

Yuying was worried, and said: "You can't help but check, Your Majesty, Qin Tianjian has said that according to the celestial phenomena, this month is also hard, and it will not rain this day." Isn't that •••••• such rumors? ”

Wu Ming finished speaking for Yuying and said, "Didn't you put my son to death!" ”

On the third day, the rumor said: The three highnesses are murderous and provoke the heavens to condemn crimes;

On the fourth day, the rumor said: A few years ago, the statue brought back by the Third Highness to Dazhi Mountain must be an evil thing, oops, the evil thing has pressed the national vein;

On the fifth day, the rumor said: The three princesses must be the reincarnation of demons. The Third Highness married the person back, and brought the demonic energy back. Heaven punishes you;

On the sixth day, the rumor said: The Third Highness must have missed the case and killed the wrong person. The wrongs in the world cannot be redressed, God can't see it, and it won't rain;

••••••

On the fifteenth day, the rumors were already spreading.

On this morning, Wu Ming's face was as heavy as black coal, and he asked, "What did you say outside?" ”

Where did the ministers dare to open their mouths.

Wu Yunzhao was calm, took a step forward, and said: "Back to my mother's words, the outsiders said that as long as you sacrifice the lives of your sons and princesses, please forgive God, take back the curse, and the rain will fall." Minglan will adjust the wind and rain smoothly, and will no longer suffer from drought and floods. ”

The ministers couldn't help but peek at Wu Yunzhao, who blew himself up, and they all admired it, it was really not a simple person to be able to say the words that wanted his life so smoothly.

Wu Ming was silent.

Wu Yunze stepped forward and said: "Mother, every year, almost all places are drought or waterlogging, if such things are related to heavenly punishment, there is no telling how many people will be used to sacrifice to heaven every year." Rumors should not be true. Erchen believes that the top priority is to appease the people, arrange for the opening of warehouses and release grain as soon as possible, reduce or reduce taxes, and let the people feel at ease. ”

Wu Yunxue stepped forward and said, "Erchen seconded it." ”

The ministers said: "The ministers seconded the proposal. ”

Wu Ming said: "What my son said is reasonable, quasi-playing." ”

The ministers shouted in unison: "The emperor is sage!" ”

Wu Ming said again: "Since the rumors are not credible, then, in other words, someone secretly spread rumors and murdered the three princesses. Ladies and gentlemen, is there a way to dispel the rumors? ”

The ministers bowed their heads and remained silent.

Wu Ming asked, "Yun Ze, is there a way?" ”

Wu Yunze shook his head in embarrassment.

Wu Ming asked again: "Yunxue, is there a way?" ”

Wu Yunxue hesitated: "This, Erchen can't!" ”

Wu Ming asked Prime Minister Ma Juan again.

Ma Juan said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that as long as it rains, the rumors will be self-defeating, but it's just that whether it can rain on this day or not is not up to me to say." ”

The ministers lowered their heads. I am ashamed that I can't come up with a good solution, and because I don't dare to speak out.

Wu Yunze and Wu Yunxue also lowered their heads. However, they were trying to hide their looks.

This catastrophe is the fate of their good third sister.

If you can't get over ••••••,

If you can't get over ••••••,

So••••••.

Thinking of this, the stones in Wu Yunze and Wu Yunxue's hearts were loosened.

Especially Wu Yunxue.

She thought that as long as Wu Yunzhao couldn't get by, her affairs would never be exposed. The hands that held her fate were completely gone.

On the throne, Wu Ming listened to Ma Juan's straightforward statement of the facts, and said in his heart: "It's a bit like the prime minister of water." His gaze turned to Wu Yunzhao.

Wu Yunzhao was calm, as if he was not worried about his predicament at all.

Wu Ming nodded secretly: "Generous!" ”

Wu Yunze and Wu Yunxue also peeked at Wu Yunzhao.

They only saw her composure, and muttered in their hearts. Is Wu Yunzhao afraid or not? This unfathomable and profound energy is a bit like a mother.

The power of the three words "like a mother" is very heavy, very heavy.

Wu Yunze and Wu Yunxue trembled in their hearts.

Wu Ming asked, "Why don't you Aiqing speak?" Could it be that Minglan, who is full of talents, can't deal with a few rumors on the streets? ”

The ministers knelt down and shouted in unison: "Holy forgiveness!" ”

Wu Yunze, Wu Yunxue, and Wu Yunzhao also knelt down.

Wu Ming said: "That's it, let's get up." ”

Everyone shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Wu Ming asked again: "Yun Zhao, this matter is related to you, what do you think?" ”

Wu Yun Zhaodao; "Back to his mother, Erchen thought that the people's urgency was the most urgent. Let's take care of disaster relief first. As for the gossip about the sons, according to the opinions of the sons, it is better to let them go first, perhaps, as soon as the people's urgent needs are solved, the rumors will naturally disperse. If it intensifies, then find another way. Please mother, put the people first. ”

Wu Ming said: "Since you said so, then put this matter aside for the time being." Ladies and gentlemen, you can talk about how to appease the people and how to alleviate the disaster. ”

••••••

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Wu Yunzhao walked alone.

In normal times, many ministers would use the excuse to talk to her.

Before the person left, the tea gradually cooled.

That's what the human heart is.

In terms of change, the speed of change in the human heart is comparable to the speed of the loss of time.

Wu Yunzhao is not sad at all, she has experienced too much.

Just as she was distracted, Dali Temple Qing Wenrou walked to her side and called softly: "Third Highness!" ”

Wu Yunzhao came back to his senses and smiled.

Wen Rou thought that Wu Yunzhao was worried about the current predicament, but she didn't know if she was thinking of the past and was a little worried. After all, the two agreed that Wen Rou recognized Wu Yunzhao's character.

Wu Yun Zhaodao; "Don't worry about it. His Royal Highness has never seen any storms, just a few words, His Royal Highness is not afraid. ”

Wen Rou saw the look in her eyes and knew that she was really confident, so she was relieved and said with a smile: "It's the lower officials who are too worried." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "Thank you Lord Wen for your concern." There are many people who make matters worse, but there are very few people who send charcoal in the snow. His Royal Highness's concern for him today is in his heart. He raised his hand to stop Wen Rou and said, "Your Highness knows that Lord Wen is genuinely concerned and not for other purposes. But there is kindness for kindness, and there is revenge for revenge. His Highness can be unkind, but he will never be ungrateful. ”

When she said this, Wu Yunxue happened to pass by her. How much Wu Yunxue heard, only she knew.

Wu Yunzhao and Wen Rou went back to Dali Temple first to deal with the official business at hand, during which the two had lunch together.

By the time the official business is completed, it is already sunset.

Wen Wen inquired about the situation on the street very considerately, and informed Wu Yunzhao that there was no one on the street who was specifically targeted. Wu Yunzhao got into the carriage with peace of mind and ran back to the mansion.

Princess Gu Qianshan greeted her back in the hall.

When Wu Yunzhao saw him, his heart was swept away, and he said quite romantically: "Concubine Ai is so sensible!" Come, rejoice and rejoice to Your Highness! ”

Wan Lian retreated. There was no one else in the hall but him.

Gu Qianshan smiled slightly, grabbed the handkerchief on the table that was ready to wipe Wu Yunzhao's hands, threw it on Wu Yunzhao's face, smiled, turned his head and ran.

Wu Yunzhao shouted: "It's the other way around, look at how His Highness cleans you up!" "Grabbed the towel and chased after it.

Gu Qianshan ran ahead. Wu Yunzhao chased after him.

The two of you chased after me, and ran into the garden with a smile.

In the garden, the three sons who were snubbed by Wu Yunzhao were chatting, and they were envious when they saw Wu Yunzhao and Gu Qianshan laughing and scolding.

Gu Qianshan swept past them like a wind, flew over the pond, and reached the opposite bank, proudly forked his waist.

Wu Yunzhao immediately followed.

The three sons will salute.

Wu Yunzhao said impatiently: "Let His Highness stay in the house." Whatever they did, they went around the pond and chased after them.

She has moves, no internal strength, and no light skills, so naturally she can't catch up.

Gu Qianshan hid again and returned the same way.

Wu Yunzhao held his breath, panting, and was determined to catch the person, so he chased after him.

The two of them came and went in a hurry, not taking a single flower or leaf with them.

The three sons looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed.

One of them said: "The Third Highness is dedicated to the princess, and staying in the palace is just for the emperor's face." ”

The other said: "The Third Highness likes Jianghu people. The higher the princess's kung fu, the more she likes it. We can't compare to this kind of fist show off our legs in a lifetime, and His Royal Highness feels tired of even looking at us. ”

The last one said: "It's better not to agree to come here from the first place." It seems that a lifetime has to be passed like this. ”

Not to mention how the three sons were sad and sad, feeling the injustice of fate, Wu Yunzhao and Gu Qianshan had already fought in the hall.

Gu Qianshan relied on his kung fu to be good, and every time Wu Yunzhao was a little bit off, he cleverly dodged and deliberately made people angry.

Wu Yunzhao was so competitive, he was really angry, he would never admit defeat, and he chased more and more fiercely.

Half an hour later, Gu Qianshan stood behind a chair, pressing the back of the chair with both hands, and bent his body slightly.

Opposite him, Wu Yunzhao was drenched in sweat, his eyes were round, and he stared at him.

Gu Qianshan begged for mercy: "Boss, I was wrong, I won't play anymore." "I couldn't help but wipe the sweat off my forehead and neck.

Wu Yunzhao gasped, panted again, and finally had enough to say a word.

I only heard her say: "Boy, have you ever heard of the first flirtatious cheap?" ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Obviously, you were the first to tease!" ”

Wu Yunzhao let out a heavy "um".

Gu Qianshan said: "A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, and chases his wife in the crematorium." Facts or something, get out to the sky. Obediently: "I'm cheap, I'm cheap." So, you see, I'm so cheap, you just let me go and raise your noble hand! ”

Wu Yunzhao said categorically: "No! ”

Gu Qianshan had a headache and wondered: "What kind of temperament is this?" Thinking that he knew how to make Wu Yunzhao happy, he continued: "Boss, I am a goblin in my life, and you are a human being. You see, you can't even run away after me, a goblin, how powerful you are, you have been harmed by the sky. Thumbs up and praise: "You are this, admire, admire, I am willing to bow down!" I threw in the towel, lost, really lost, lost completely. ”

Wu Yunzhao looked at him and couldn't take his eyes off it.

Gu Qianshan smiled and said in his heart: "If you can't do it, you can speak." ”

Wu Yunzhao glanced at him, took a deep breath, turned around and said, "Count you as acquaintances!" ”

Gu Qianshan also breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say a few more flattering words, adding heat, when he suddenly saw Wu Yunzhao sitting on the ground, his eyes showing pain. Her hands cupped her calves.

Gu Qianshan jumped over the chair, came to her side, and asked urgently, "What's wrong?" Twisted? ”

Wu Yunzhao frowned and said, "My leg cramps." Oops. It's all you, you have to run. It's going to be a great achievement. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Okay, good, it's all my fault." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "Stretch me." My hands are weak. ”

Gu Qianshan did as he was told, grabbed Wu Yunzhao's ankles with both hands, and slowly straightened her legs.

Wu Yunzhao saw him bow his head and said secretly: "The opportunity is just right!" "Slow down, slow down." Taking advantage of Gu Qianshan's inattention, his body rushed forward, like a tiger predatoring, and threw Gu Qianshan down, crushing the person under him. His hands clamped Gu Qianshan's neck.

Gu Qianshan was taken aback, looked at a beautiful face that suddenly came to his eyes, reacted for a long time, and said aggrievedly: "You are cheating!" ”

Wu Yunzhao snorted, straddled Gu Qianshan's stomach, and said angrily: "It's not the first day of cheating. It's not like you haven't seen me cheat, by the way, and cheap. ”

Gu Qianshan said helplessly: "You are too hard!" ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "My mother doesn't like to lose!" ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Okay, on strength, I will win you, on wisdom, I will lose you." You've got me all right. I can get up. ”

Wu Yunzhao shouted: "I'm sorry! ”

Gu Qianshan smiled and said, "Boss, I don't mind, but don't you think you're at a loss?" ”

Wu Yunzhao also smiled and said, "I don't think if you don't suffer, you won't suffer." He sat down with a slight force.

Gu Qianshan was in pain and muttered, "Unreasonable woman." ”

Wu Yunzhao smiled and asked, "What did you say?" Be louder. ”

Gu Qianshan shut up and shook his head.

After a while, Wu Yunzhao still didn't move.

Gu Qianshan said: "Boss, if you don't get up again, I'll be a hooligan." ”

Wu Yun Zhaoxin said: "The old lady is waiting for you to play a hooligan, as if you dare." With a straight chest, he said proudly: "You try!" ”

Gu Qianshan shrank his neck and whispered, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”

Seeing him retreat, Wu Yunzhao showed a "cowardly" look, angry, inserted his hands into Gu Qianshan's hair, rubbed it indiscriminately, and created a messy and avant-garde hairstyle, stood up, shook his robe, shook his sleeves, as if nothing had happened, sat down in the main seat of the hall, and poured himself tea.

Gu Qianshan shook his three-dimensional hair, looked at the indifferent Wu Yunzhao, and said with emotion: "I should really learn from you this calmness." ”

Wu Yunzhao glanced at the chair next to him.

Gu Qianshan walked over, sat down, shook his head, returned to his original state in the blink of an eye, and changed his clothes by the way.

He finally got his senses, and deliberately changed into an ink-colored silver kaftan that Wu Yunzhao had woven for him and sewn up with stitches and threads.

Seeing this, Wu Yunzhao was overjoyed and poured him a cup of tea.

Gu Qianshan said: "Thank you!" "A little restrained.

Wu Yunzhao smiled: "What's polite, it's not an outsider." ”

Gu Qianshan took a sip of tea, remembered the gossip outside, and asked, "Boss, how do you want to solve it?" Don't forget, there is a real goblin like me in your house, and if someone finds out a little, you and I will have to be erected and sacrificed to the sky and burned to ashes. ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "Do you know what is the most effective way to deal with gossip?" ”

Gu Qianshan said: "What? ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "I think of one thing today, you know, experience. ”

Gu Qianshan said: "Listen to me." ”

Wu Yunzhao chuckled and praised: "I can speak, in front of me, it should be like this, very good, very good." Just as he was about to speak, Wanlian's voice came from outside the door.

Wu Yunzhao raised his voice and said, "Come in." ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Wanlian pushed the door in, walked in front of the two, walked slowly, and said, "Your Highness, Princess, the Seventh Highness has come down." ”

Wu Yunzhao asked, "Why did she say she came?" ”

Wan Lian said: "His Royal Highness Seventh waited for a while and didn't say anything. ”

Gu Qianshan interjected: "His Royal Highness Seventh has been waiting for a while, so? ”

Wanlian said: "The slave knows that His Royal Highness and the princess have important matters, so let His Royal Highness the Seventh wait in the study." ”

Gu Qianshan felt a little ashamed, and the roots of his ears were red.

Wu Yunzhao said: "It's all a family, and when you see it, you see it." Go and get somebody. ”

Wan Lian said: "Yes." Turning around to leave, he reminded: "Your Highness, do you want to freshen up?" The heart said, "The princess has even changed her clothes, what are you two doing in the house, the slave and maid really dare not think about it." ”

Wu Yunzhao saw Wanlian's face shy, and knew that she wanted to be crooked, so he said helplessly: "I think it's time for dinner, take Lao Qi to the garden." Dinner is also served in the garden. By the way, let those three hide as far as they want, and don't come out as an eyesore. The princess and I will be there later. ”

Wanlian walked away quickly to prepare.

Wu Yunzhao looked at Gu Qianshan meaningfully.

Gu Qianshan raised his vigilance.

Wu Yunzhao said with a smile: "It's over, the little girl must think that His Royal Highness is fascinated by the beauty of the princess, and she declares her obscenity during the day, regardless of the occasion." ”

Gu Qianshan said in his heart: "You really don't care about the occasion. ”

The Seven Princes came today to spread rumors and give Wu Yunzhao a wake-up call.

It turned out that rumors had become a hot topic in schools.

He said: "Sister Huang, the boys are okay, after all, they have the opportunity to go to school, and you single-handedly contributed to it, and I am grateful in my heart and don't say anything." But the girl's head is messed up. I suspect that some of them must have been instructed by members of their families to spread rumors and damage your reputation. ”

Wu Yunzhao asked: "How can you tell that they are instructed and not want to spread and talk nonsense themselves?" ”

Wu Yunsong said: "Sister Huang, where are they old, many words can't be hidden, so they naturally have to be revealed." Some people say that the three highnesses have great means, if you have been in the court, and when they have completed their studies and entered the official career, they must not be played to death by you, where is there a happy time, it is better to take this opportunity to drive you away. ”

Gu Qianshan sneered: "Drive away? Let's kill them all! ”

Wu Yunsong said: "Brother-in-law, they still know what a big rebellion is, and they don't dare to say this." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "They think long-term. ”

Wu Yunsong was anxious and worried: "Sister Huang, this momentum is not good." If it's one or two people, after they are caught, they are slaughtered or cut down. If a group of people unite, even if it is found out, can they still cut down half of the courtiers? My mother didn't agree either. Hurry up and think of a way. If the drought continues and the people reach the day when they can't stand it anymore, someone will go to the palace gate and kneel down and beg your mother to sacrifice you to heaven. ”

Wu Yunzhao said calmly: "At that time, my mother will obey the will of the people. ”

Wu Yunsong hurriedly said: "Sister Huang, why aren't you in a hurry?" ”

Wu Yunzhao smiled: "It's not raining, what can I do?" ”

This gets to the point.

Indeed, if it doesn't rain, what can we do?

Wu Yunsong was speechless.

Wu Yunzhao smiled: "You shouldn't say this when you eat. Seventh, don't worry, since it depends on the will of God, do you think that the will of God will accept me or let me go? ”

Wu Yunsong's eyes were worried, and he frowned: "The imperial sister has done so many good things, there should be a good reward." ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "That's not the end." Looking up at the sky, he said, "I think God is reluctant to take me back." Look again, life is the most impermanent! Blessings and misfortunes go hand in hand! ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "When I was out two years ago, I met a lot of worshippers to river gods, mountain gods, all kinds of gods, better ones, send some flower rolls, steamed buns, gold, silver, jewelry as tribute, and bad ones, naturally have to give them away, women, men, adults and children." In more ruthless places, the people are slaughtered first, like killing pigs, divided into pieces, and then tribute. People, as long as you are afraid, you can do anything. Everyone is dead, and I am alone. ”

Where did Wu Yunsong know this, he was sick to his stomach when he heard this, and his face turned pale.

Gu Qianshan played the role of "brother-in-law" and said to Wu Yunzhao: "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after eating." Won't pick the time. He sandwiched a lot of vegetables and stuffed them into Wu Yunzhao's bowl.

Here, disasters, divine powers, and demons are all unsolvable propositions. If you think about it and talk about it, you can't come up with a reasonable explanation.

Everything is fate!

Rao is like this, until he finished eating, Wu Yunsong was still very worried, and said: "Sister Huang, you really don't do anything, wait and see?" The heart said, "Your heart is too wide." ”

Wu Yunzhao patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Seventh brother, let me tell you, now, your imperial sister and I take a breath, which is also wrong. "Beckon, call Wanlian over.

Wu Yunzhao said: "Look at it." He instructed: "Wanlian, take out 10,000 taels of silver to buy rice, and then send the rice to the porridge shop." When someone asked, they said that I gave it to improve the food. ”

Wan Lian took the order and went.

Wu Yunsong asked, "Sister Huang, what are you doing here?" Mother allocated the money, and the porridge shop was enough. ”

Wu Yunzhao said: "Don't worry, look at tomorrow." ”

Wu Yunsongxin said: "This is also a good thing, the wind should get a little better." ”
