Chapter 188: Timely Rain(1/2)

Forbidden City, Warm Pavilion.

Emperor Hongzhi felt that today is no different from the past.

A hard day starts early, he gets up early and eats early.

After breakfast, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Commander of the Jinyiwei Mou Bin, including the Dongchang Factory Mansion Xiao Jing, had already surrounded him.

What we want to discuss today is a crucial issue.

Until now, Emperor Hongzhi could not make a decision.

Standing on the right side of the head of Lord Went are three cabinet ministers.

Regarding the fact that the Jinyiwei was killed by a slut, they hoped to try their best to stabilize the situation and not make big fuss.

Now the situation in the capital is like a sensation. These successive changes and incitement from those who are interested have made many people feel dissatisfied.

Under such a situation, there will be great wars. Once the factory guards are dispatched on a large scale, people will be resentful, because there will be unjust prisons. Once the attack on those who spread rumors and cause trouble will be fulfilled, the wishes of the thieves will be fulfilled.

But obviously, Xiao Jing and Mou Bin don't think so...

At this time, Xiao Jing looked at Emperor Hongzhi with a usual smile and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave should not have interfered in the affairs of the court. This time, the one who was killed involved the factory guards, and the old slave had to dare to say something. Now, inside and outside the capital, from the secret reports collected by the factory guards, those who spread rumors and make mistakes through the changes of heaven have become more and more serious. If the court does not control it, a few days ago, only a few Jinyiwei lieutenants died. What about the rest of the day? The state has national laws. If even the personal army is killed, the court cannot react immediately and give the most thorough counterattack. This will only make the thief more rampant and really reach a point where it is difficult to control the situation. At that time, it will be difficult to control the situation. Your Majesty, you should stop and suffer the chaos. What a slave means..."

Although Xiao Jing was usually happy, in a moment, a cold light flashed through his eyes: "The factory guard should go out immediately, cut off the weeds, and uproot the roots of the disaster without leaving any."

After he finished speaking, the warm room fell into a dead silence.

Both parties in the dispute make sense.

At this time, a large-scale arrest of the rebel party for crimes of evil words will lead to losing people's hearts.

But... it would be better to just get rid of the roots if you let it go.

Emperor Hongzhi held his hands anxiously and uneasy. He did not make a sound, but was silent.

After a long time, he said, "You are the one who speaks of your husband and you are the one who speaks of your husband and you are the one who speaks of your husband. What is the difficulty of being the emperor?"

He sighed and continued, "The difficulty lies in the difficulty. Things in the world have pros and cons, and gains and losses. There is no benefit in this world without any harm, nor any harm, nor any benefit. It is said that the emperor is arbitrary, but I... I know that at this moment, a thought will affect thousands of people. I think about it carefully and feel fearful..."

Liu Jian, who was standing beside him, said bitterly: "But at this point, you have to have an idea."

"Yes." Emperor Hongzhi nodded, and he closed his eyes and showed a look of pain: "Is that person known as the leader of the Beggars' Sect named Wu Xinjie?"

"Yes." Xiao Jing and Mou Bin spoke in unison.

Dongchang and Jinyiwei worked hard to find out the details of the Beggars' Sect. Both Xiao Jing and Mou Bin were afraid that Emperor Hongzhi would think that their affairs were not good.

Emperor Hongzhi narrowed his eyes: "It is said that he is still a failed scholar, and he is like this, the person who reads the books of sages!"

He seemed to be hesitant. Obviously, no one had expected that a mere meeting would create such a huge crisis for the court through a severe drought.

Emperor Hongzhi wanted to tear the so-called gang leader to pieces, but... at this time, he still hesitated. It would be fine if he could really hold this person. The key to the problem was that no matter how strong the factory guard was, it was still in the clear, and he was unwilling to cause greater turmoil.

Alas...if there was a timely rain at this time, how great would it be...

This thought flashed by.

Emperor Hongzhi immediately smiled bitterly.

If you say it's time to come... Then I'm so easy to be a emperor...

At this moment...

boom……

A thunderclap.

Emperor Hongzhi's expression changed instantly.

The people in the hall all changed their colors.

Thunder broke out?

The eunuchs came from outside: "The wind is blowing, the wind is blowing, the thunder is shaking on the ground, the dark clouds... are dark clouds..."

call……

Emperor Hongzhi's face became stiff.

The palace has always been very strict. Who dares to make such a loud noise unless... something extraordinary happened.

And now... isn't it a terrible thing?

Therefore, even the eunuchs outside the warm-up pavilion became bolder.

Emperor Hongzhi finally woke up from his shock.

He looked at Xiao Jing, and Xiao Jing's turbid eyes were shocked.

So his eyes fell on Liu Jian.

Liu Jian was like a sculpture. The only thing that proved that he was flesh and blood was that Liu Jian's arms couldn't help but trembled violently.

Plop...

Mou Bin bowed directly, his eyes were red.

Over the past few days, he has been under great pressure.

There were rumors everywhere, and there were rumors everywhere. The Jinyiwei lieutenant and strong man released were all sharpening their knives, just thinking about taking people to calm the situation.

But he knew very well that he could not take people everywhere because of this. Now, because of this severe drought, there are people's grievances. If he took some people who were verbally polite at this time, the final consequences might be unimaginable.

He knew in his heart that the drought would not end for a day, and this suffocating situation would never change.

And now...

He knelt on the ground and choked and said, "Your Majesty... it's going to rain."

Liu Jian and others were suddenly touched by something.

It has not rained for more than two months. Such a severe drought brings so much disaster.

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath, his eyes slightly dull.

Since he ascended the throne, he has become the emperor, but in fact, he is an emperor fighting against the sky, with disasters again and again, and every time, he is competing with God.

In fact, despite how much he cares about labor, he loses more and wins less.

Now, at least he can breathe a sigh of relief.

He was silent for a long time, and suddenly, Xiao Jing said suddenly: "Dare you ask Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince and Fang Jifan... were they praying for rain today?"

All of a sudden, everyone looked at each other.

In fact, for everyone, this is just a nonsense between the prince and Fang Jifan.

The reason why Emperor Hongzhi did not stop this farce was perhaps only because Fang Jifan participated. Perhaps it was because Fang Jifan's surprises too many times that made Emperor Hongzhi feel so little expectant.

So... he watched coldly, and even because there were too many things that were in a state of turmoil, he had forgotten the rain prayer.

And now, this memory is re-enabling.

"Your Majesty, it seems that it is today, it is noon today."

"Noon..." Emperor Hongzhi's eyes opened suddenly, his lips trembled: "Now..."

"It's noon." Xiao Jing was also shocked and looked at Emperor Hongzhi intently.

Emperor Hongzhi was completely stunned.

It's this time.

Emperor Hongzhi held his hands behind his back, and without caring about the others, he immediately walked out of the warm cabinet.

As soon as he walked out of the warm pavilion, a strong wind made him squint his eyes. He looked up and looked at the sky from afar. The sky was already pitch black. The sun that had tortured the capital for more than two months had been covered by dark clouds without mercy.

boom……

There was lightning and thunder again, and a bright light shining in the air was dazzling.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at all this in disbelief. He remained silent for a long time and was actually crazy.

The ministers in the warm-up pavilion were already in a state of uproar.

"Immediately... Immediately pass on the prince, and... Fang Jifan..."

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly looked back, looked at the stunned minister in the warm trunk, and raised his eyebrows: "Even if it rains heavily, they will arrive immediately, hurry up!"

Is there really a so-called Dragon King in this world?

Do those ghost things really exist?

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi had too many questions in his heart and someone needed to answer them.

……………………

In Kunning Palace, Princess Taikang Zhu Xiurong was lying on the windowsill of the bedroom, while Queen Zhang sat aside, holding embroidery in her hand, skillfully making a girl-red girl.

The empress shouldn't have bothered to do these things, but... To set an example, Empress Zhang, who is in charge of the harem, seems to have no resistance to this.

She was not born in a wealthy family, and this girl was already familiar with her before she left the house.

"My mother... do you think it will rain today?" Zhu Xiurong looked out at the windowsill and was in a state of consciousness.
