Chapter 107: Thunder Split (Pink 360+)
Pity the front seat in the middle of the night, and don't ask the common people to ask the ghosts and gods.
The poem read by the second prince was included in the "Xiangrong Anthology".
The envoy sent by the prince was also familiar with the "Xiangrong Anthology", and when he heard this, he couldn't help but stand up straight, and said with emotion: "Miss Zheng Er, a weak girl, can also have such knowledge, you big men ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, the envoy suddenly thought that it was precisely because of his love with Miss Zheng Er that these two princes became monks, and he was suddenly embarrassed.
The second prince smiled, clasped his palms and said: "She is not a mortal, she has already driven the crane west, and it is beyond the reach of my generation." However, she is gone, we are still alive in the world, and the people in this world still rely on God to eat. You say, what else can we do now but ask God for rain? ”
The envoy was silent, glanced at the second prince, and said, "I've been watching you for three or four days, and the rain still hasn't fallen, don't you want to do something else?" ”
The second prince sighed: "I have thought of all the methods, this is the last way." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the sky and said, "If God is willing to give us a way to live, even if I kneel here for the rest of my life, I am willing!" ”
The people in the audience clamored and angrily told the prince's envoy to "get down" and not delay the monks to ask for rain......
Seeing that the crowd was angry, the envoy had no choice but to leave the high platform in a huff, walk to the seat prepared for him under the shade of the tree, and look at the second prince and his party with a gloomy face.
The prayer for rain went on day after day.
On the seventh day, another group of people came from the capital to Jiangzhou Road in the south of the Yangtze River.
This time, it was someone sent by the Queen Mother to give the second prince a birthday gift.
"Your Highness! Your Highness! This is the birthday gift from the Queen Mother, come down and receive the order! The chamberlain sent by the Queen Mother raised his head sweatily and shouted.
The second prince on the high platform for rain bowed to the sky a few times before getting up and walking off the high platform.
Every year on the birthday of the second prince, the Queen Mother will send someone to give him a birthday gift. Every time, it is a set of prince's clothes, a hundred longevity peaches, a hundred bunches of silver silk noodles, and a pair of soap shoes with a blue face and a white bottom on a thousand bottoms.
This year is no different.
The second prince was in a hurry to continue begging for rain. Directly put the prince's robe on the outside of the khaki monk's robe, knelt down and kowtowed three times in the direction of the capital, and said: "Grandmother Xie Huang is worried." Then he kept his knees and waited for a while.
That's when it happened. A dark cloud slowly drifted over, blocking the scorching sun.
The place where the rain was begging suddenly became cooler.
The people who followed the kneeling suddenly raised their heads and looked at the dark clouds floating in the sky in amazement, and they couldn't believe their eyes.
Is this going to rain?!
The second prince was shocked, and hurriedly got up from the ground, as if he didn't even have time to take off the prince's clothes, ran to the high platform, and prayed loudly for rain with all the monks.
"That's what I smelled. For a while, the Buddha was in the heavens of Enlightenment, speaking for the mother.
It's time, Rulai smiled. Put hundreds of trillions of great light clouds, the so-called great perfection light cloud, great compassion light cloud, great wisdom light cloud, great prajna light cloud, great samadhi light cloud, great auspicious light cloud, great good fortune light cloud, great merit light cloud, great return to light cloud, great praise light cloud, and so on. ”
In the recitation of the monks, there were more and more dark clouds in the sky, and they became thicker and thicker. And accompanied by a series of lightning, like a golden snake dancing wildly, enchanting in the sky, thunder and deafening.
"It's going to rain!"
"It's really going to rain!"
The people begging for rain shouted loudly and were ecstatic.
The envoy sitting in the shade of the tree was startled and stood up from his seat.
Bang!
Bright lightning flashed right in the middle of everyone's heads. Then a thunderous sound like a landslide sounded in everyone's ears.
In the midst of the thunder, a scream suddenly sounded.
The rain poured down like rain, moistening the thirsty earth.
"It's finally raining!"
Countless people looked up at the sky and did not hide, letting the long-lost heavy rain drench them.
In the midst of the crowd's cheers. The entourage and guards who came to Jiangzhou with the prince's envoy were earthy, and they were so frightened that they didn't know what to do.
Because in the midst of the thunder and lightning just now, the envoy who had been sitting under the tree was struck by lightning as soon as he stood up!
The people around could clearly see that the envoy had been killed by lightning!
After a downpour. The rain has dispersed and the clouds have come to an end for the time being.
The cheering crowd then found that the envoy who had been killed by lightning was lying under the tree, his back and head were charred black.
"Struck by lightning?"
"yes, I was killed by lightning......"
"This man must have done a lot of bad things."
In the midst of this clamour, some people began to sum up.
"We begged for seven days and seven nights of rain, but we never got it, but as soon as the second prince put on the princess clothes sent by the Queen Mother, it was immediately cloudy. Then the second prince begged for rain in his royal clothes, and immediately the rain poured down! - What do you mean, you say? ”
"yes, it seems so. The sky was clear just now, but as soon as the second prince put on the prince's clothes and bowed to the queen mother in the capital, the sky was immediately overcast. When I put on the prince's clothes and pray, the rain will fall loudly......"
"Exactly. Also, you see, the envoy sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over there was actually killed by thunder! - This is a warning from heaven! ”
"Early warning? What kind of alarm? ”
"Of course it's the prince who has no way......"
"You don't want to live anymore?! Shut up yet! - Don't talk about the country, don't talk about the country! ”
Somehow, these rumors spread and soon spread in the Great Xia Dynasty.
By the time the prince knew about it in the capital, it was already September, and everyone in the capital knew that God warned that the second prince should be vulgar, because the prince had no way......
"What nonsense is this!"
The crown prince was furious in the East Palace, and ordered the Flying Fish Guard to go out and arrest those who liked to chew the root of their tongue indiscriminately in the capital.
Even the prince dares to talk about it, he doesn't want to live anymore, does he?!
But the prince forgot that the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan. The more people he arrested, the more people from the government and the opposition criticized him.
At first, everyone just talked about it casually as gossip after tea and dinner, but when the prince regarded these gossips as an extremely important thing and arrested people in the capital, he angered the ordinary people who were originally indifferent, as well as the imperial history Qingliu in the court.
Especially the latter. When they think this ruler is misbehaving, they can drown you with a spittle!
Moreover, since the founding of the country, the Great Xia Dynasty has pursued the national policy of "not killing officials, not cutting off clear streams", and the prince can arrest the common people who gossip. But they can't kill all these gossip officials.
"The prince has no way!"
"The Daoless still has the face to be on top?!"
Countless trickles finally converged into a surging river.
Like snowflakes, the recital demanding the abolition of the prince flew to the desk of the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother sat behind the bookcase, looking at these pieces, but she was not very happy.
She saw it clearly.
With this matter alone, how can the prince really be abolished?!
Besides, there are only a few gossip officials who have been calling at the front desk.
Most of the other gossip officials, as well as the grandfathers of the four major families, and the Shangshu lords of the six departments all remained silent.
The Queen Mother pursed her lips and pushed those pieces to Lady Yao, "Take them to His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"However, these are the recitals that ask for the abolition of the crown prince......" Lady Yao hesitated a little.
If the prince saw these movements, he would definitely be angry.
The Queen Mother smiled but said nothing.
Female Officer Yao suddenly understood. - Make the prince uncomfortable. Isn't that one of the purposes of the Queen Mother?!
"It's the courtiers who want to be left. The courtiers sent it to the prince. Lady Yao changed her smile and went to the East Palace with these concerts.
The prince looked at this piece of music demanding the abolition of the prince, and his face was so angry that his face was red and white, and he slammed his fist on the desk. "It's so deceitful!"
Female official Yao hurriedly lowered her head, for fear that her smile would be seen by the prince, and it would be bad to be angry......
“…… This is a recital for the imperial grandmother, and Lady Yao should take it to the imperial grandmother. The prince hung his head and sat back behind the bookcase.
Lady Yao raised her head, her eyes flashed, and she said, "This is sent by the Queen Mother's courtiers." The Queen Mother said that now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in charge of the country, these things. The Queen Mother is inconvenient to interfere. ”
The prince breathed a sigh of relief.
The Queen Mother directly forwarded these recitals demanding the abolition of the crown prince to him, of course, to show the Queen Mother's goodwill to him, indicating that the Queen Mother did not have the intention of abolishing the prince.
However, it is also because the Great Xia Dynasty has a tradition of "not killing officials and not cutting off clear streams", so even if the Queen Mother transferred these pieces to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she knew that he would not make any unfavorable moves against these people. At most, it's just a dismissal.
Let's talk about these officials. The biggest achievement is not a product of official residence, but a timeless experience.
As long as the prince of the prison country really deposed the prince because of their letter, he would put them in prison, or remove them from office. They're really going to go down in history.
So they do this with complete impunity.
At this moment, the situation faced by the prince was very embarrassing.
Let's continue to supervise the country, it is obvious that many people have distrusted him.
But he was really unwilling to bow to these people and give up the position of the crown prince, and even more unwilling!
But if he doesn't do anything, the pressure will definitely increase.
In particular, in the case of the great drought in the south of the Yangtze River and begging for rain, the envoy he sent out was killed by lightning, and this alone is a black history that he cannot erase.
And the second prince, who became a monk, immediately begged for rain as soon as he put on the prince's clothes, and the success of the rain was spread to everyone in the country, which made the prince annoyed.
Deep down, he still has a deep reverence for God.
Even if it's a coincidence, it's a coincidence.
The prince hesitated, didn't know whether to bow to the queen mother, and agreed to the second prince to return to the vulgar.
This delay was delayed until the beginning of autumn of the second year, that is, in August of the twenty-eighth year of the Ming calendar.
In August of this year, three of the five states and thirteen provinces of the Great Xia Dynasty were hit by a huge locust plague.
