362. Clerks
Liu Qiqi was happy when she heard these movements.
The prince believed what she said!
It's such a good feeling to be trusted unconditionally!
When Liu Qiqi ate breakfast, she came to the street and saw a completely different situation from yesterday.
Liu Qiqi walked around and found that there were more and more people, and she became more and more excited, and then followed the crowd back to the inn.
I saw that the entire inn was surrounded by people.
Through word of mouth around the city, I knew that the prince had arrived.
These people have come to pay their respects.
Liu Qiqi saw the excited people, and in their hearts, they thought that seeing the prince was seeing hope.
That's the same thing.
When the prince arrived, no matter whether the prayer for rain was successful or not, these people would no longer go hungry.
That's a good thing!
I had just watched for a while, and someone arrived on a tall horse.
The man on horseback was dressed in an official uniform.
Looking at the official uniform, it should be the county.
With the arrival of the magistrate, many people automatically got out of the way, and soon the magistrate who rode a horse came to the inn and dismounted, and the people of the yamen automatically stood in two rows, waiting for the magistrate to enter the inn and guard outside one by one.
The surrounding people began to talk in whispers.
"Have you seen it, the magistrate is not ten years old, and the one who lives in the inn must be the prince!"
"How could the prince stay in such an inn?" Doubts have been raised.
"The prince cares about our people, and he does things for our people, unlike those people, who will only loot when they come, and they don't care about the life or death of our people!"
"That's, that's it, how do those people compare to the prince."
Liu Qiqi heard that the people hadn't seen the prince yet, and they didn't know what kind of person the prince was, but they just relied on an identity and began to worship blindly.
That's the power of identity!
This power will be stronger after noon today.
Thinking of this, Liu Qiqi was happy for the prince.
Just when Liu Qiqi decided to step back and wait for things to develop, she just had this idea and was cut off by Zhao Kai halfway.
"Crown Princess!"
Crown Princess!
One sentence immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
It seemed that immediately, Liu Qiqi saw Zhao Kai standing not far behind him.
Zhao Kai and the 'Prince' left, how could he be here?
Liu Qiqi couldn't react, Zhao Kai had already come to him.
"Crown Princess, you went out to observe the people's feelings, you worked hard!"
What's the situation?
Liu Qiqi looked at Yu Dai, Yu Dai shook her head, looked at Zhou Yan, and Zhou Yan shook her head.
Liu Qiqi understood that all this was the prince's idea.
It was at this time that the prince made his debut.
"Crown Princess, you have worked hard!" The prince appeared in a bright yellow prince dress.
Liu Qiqi still has something she doesn't understand.
Liu Qiqi was forced to be the center of attention, and when the prince came, the two dressed in obvious contrast.
Liu Qiqi was forced to improvise, "The concubine was cautious of His Highness's teachings, walked around the street, and found that as His Highness said, she also felt the suffering of the people. As she spoke, Liu Qiqi took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears that she squeezed out of the corners of her eyes.
The prince saw that the princess was crying, and he was stunned for a while.
"The concubine is well aware of the importance of His Highness's prayer for rain, and specially prepared the offerings needed to pray for rain."
"Okay, good, the princess has worked hard!"
When the surrounding people heard this, they thought that the prince and the princess cared about the people, and they knelt on the ground and kowtowed excitedly.
Seeing this scene, the magistrate led everyone to kneel.
When everyone knelt on the ground, Liu Qiqi grinned at the prince, and the prince smiled innocently.
Not long after the two competed, Liu Qiqi first went to the inn to prepare to ask for rain, and the prince was outside to appease the local people.
Under Yu Dai's prompting, Liu Qiqi put on the palace dress symbolizing the identity of the crown princess, looked at herself in the mirror and felt awkward.
I tried to pull out a smiling face before I felt pleasing to the eye.
Yu Dai and Zhou Yan were waiting beside them, and they were puzzled by the prince's actions, so they could only bow their heads and do things.
Liu Qiqi saw through it and asked, "The offerings are ready." ”
"Yes." Yu Dai said.
Liu Qiqi heard and went to see the so-called offerings.
It's really complete.
The chicken, duck and fish are all available, and the melons and fruits are complete.
Liu Qiqi sneered, "The prince is really well prepared!" ”
"There's still a paperwork to ask for rain." The prince said as he walked from outside.
Liu Qiqi saw it, and her expression changed slightly, "You did it on purpose?" ”
"Sort of!" The prince came to him and comforted the woman who was in a hurry, "Asking for rain is about sincerity, and you should be sincere when the time comes." ”
"The prince means that if you can't ask for rain, it means that the concubine is not sincere physically and mentally?"
"Sort of!" The prince wanted everyone to know that begging for rain was not his work alone.
This move paved the way for the crown princess to become the queen in the future.
It's the same as the long road to the emperor.
Liu Qiqi frowned, didn't say anything anymore, asked Yu Dai to prepare pen and paper, and began to write a document asking for rain.
The prince watched from the side, "You said it was raining at noon, I just had to pretend!" ”
"If you don't do a full set of plays, how can the people be grateful for the prince's sincerity!"
The two of them quarreled, and time passed quickly.
When the preparations are ready, the magistrate has already arranged the places for asking for rain.
Before leaving, the prince asked, "Are you sure it will rain at noon today?" ”
"It's raining heavily." Liu Qiqi corrected.
"Well, I believe you!"
The prince's words were an affirmation of Liu Qiqi, and he also deliberately explained that he took a risk for Liu Qiqi's sake.
Liu Qiqi understood the prince's concerns, thinking that if the system deceived herself, the two of them would lose face together.
Everything was ready, the county magistrate opened the way, Zhao Kai and Sun Shuo protected the side, and the group went to the dry river.
Wherever they walked, many people knelt on the ground one by one.
When they came to the dry river, it was already crowded.
Everyone was looking forward to seeing if the crown princess could succeed in begging for rain and whether they could really save their poor people!
The prince and Liu Qiqi traveled in full costume, and everywhere they went was the highlight of everyone's attention.
The magistrate is protecting the periphery, no matter whether he succeeds in asking for rain or not, as long as the prince does not have an accident in this land, he will be considered a complete success, and he will get the opportunity to be promoted because of his meritorious escort.
If something goes wrong, he won't be able to save his head.
Thinking of this, I cheered up my spirit and looked around vigilantly.
Zhao Kai, Sun Shuo and others stood quietly on both sides to protect.
The people they brought were protected by a team wearing uniform uniforms, and among the many people around, there were also people they arranged, just in case.
They knew in their hearts that if they succeeded in praying for rain, it would be the icing on the cake for the prince.
Looking at the dry and cracked ground, I thought to myself, will I really succeed in asking for rain?
The people around them couldn't get close, so they craned their necks one by one to look around.
The moment everyone saw the crown prince and princess, they automatically quieted down, for fear that the movement would disturb the prince begging for rain.
The prince was dressed in a bright yellow python robe, and under the illumination of his eyes, he flashed a golden light, giving people the illusion that the prince was an immortal who came by stepping on the sun.
The same is true of the crown princess standing next to her.
The clothes that don't look good, under the masculinity, a trace of golden light appears, and this golden light is slightly less than the prince's.
