Han: The witchcraft disaster begins, I fight against Emperor Wu of Han

Chapter 32 What the people want!
Rumble!
The thunder dragon seemed to be wandering in the sky and earth, and the whole Chang'an city was shrouded in dark clouds. However, the violent roar did not make anyone feel afraid, but rather a new life!

Wow…

The rain came in torrents.

"It's raining! It's raining!"

"Oh God, it finally rained..."

At this moment, in the vast land of Chang'an, countless people walked out of their impoverished homes, children ran freely in the fields, the elderly opened their cracked mouths to taste the surprising rain, and the strong men ran naked into the rain...

The smell of earth and the fragrance of grass and trees in the rainstorm were all stimulated in an instant, brightening the fields.

gradually……

The cracked land gradually became moist, the dry rivers were filled with rainwater, and the people's fields were nourished. Life, which seemed dead at first glance, seemed to be full of hope and vitality at this moment.

Wherever the rain bathed, the entire Chang'an was moistened with a touch of spring color of grass and trees.

Jianzhang Palace.

"It's raining, it's really raining!"

"Don't call it rain, call it auspiciousness!"

At this moment, even the palace maids and eunuchs who followed strict rules ran into the rain. Everyone was bathing in the rain, feeling the coolness, with smiles on their faces.

"Why don't you go and tell the good news? What are you standing there for? Go and tell His Majesty the good news!"

"promise!"

"This rain comes just in time. We finally don't have to worry anymore."

"You guys think this Yu is really the grandson of Emperor Jing..."

"It must be the grandson of Emperor Jing. He brought good fortune and was recognized by the heavens..."

"Hush...be careful what you say!"

……

Mrs. Gouyi looked at her child tenderly. Little Fuling was barefoot and running happily on the bluestone slabs, with cheerful laughter coming from him from time to time.

Our own children are innocent. They haven’t seen rain for many days, and now they are celebrating together with those in the palace.

But Lady Gouyi was not happy at all.

There is only one "Yao" in the Han Dynasty.

"Why is it raining?"

She whispered, her voice full of sorrow.

Fortunately, the prince had already resorted to military force, and the law of the country was supreme. Not to mention rain, even if another Shun came, it would be of no use.

"But how should this chaos end now?"

While he was thinking, he saw Wang Bi walking in a hurry, with a smile on his round old face, and he first congratulated Lady Gouyi.

The latter nodded.

He was now running towards the main hall.

Wherever they passed, they shouted loudly, all expressing their congratulations.

The Han Dynasty was a barren land for thousands of miles, and this rain now is the greatest auspicious sign for everyone!

However, if you look closely at him, you will find that his eyes are filled with fear and panic, and contain huge terror.

He ran all the way to the main hall and found that His Majesty and his ministers were already standing under the eaves.

What made him feel a little uneasy was that His Majesty, who had been furious recently because of the Crown Prince and his son, had already celebrated with his ministers!
This emperor, who seemed to have been suffering from "paranoia" in his later years and was mad and ruthless due to witchcraft, finally smiled from the bottom of his heart because of the rain.

His eyes looked at the palace in front of him, through the heavy rain, as if looking at the vast mountains, rivers and land.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The rain has now fallen and the drought has been alleviated. This is enough to show that our Han Dynasty is blessed by heaven. This is because of Your Majesty's great fortune. The heaven has sent down this grace."

"Now, the people of the Han Dynasty, thanks to your majesty's blessing, will surely survive the drought. As long as the weather is favorable, our Han Dynasty will surely prosper, and your majesty will be healthy. This rain is really a blessing for our Han Dynasty!"

As Wang Bi congratulated with his round old face, all the ministers present also smiled.

However, as everyone laughed, they couldn't help but look up to the sky, which seemed to be really standing in the dark cloud where the thunder dragon was wandering -

The platform of the gods!
Although it is not clear, it brings an indescribable sense of mystery and shock to everyone.

Including Huo Guang, Jin Midi and Sang Hongyang at this moment, they will never fall. Just now, Gongsun Qing had just said "Heaven does not lie", and Your Majesty was still furious!

Above the sky, thunder roared one after another.

The scattered white clouds gathered in the sky over Chang'an at an unimaginable speed in an instant, and then thunder and rain fell down!

It was as if there really was a god in the sky, who was inspired by someone and was driving thunder, lightning, clouds and rain...

As for who it was, they didn't dare to say more.

But in everyone's eyes, this person... is both far away and right in front of them!

"God is not deceiving! What a true God!"

"Gongsun Qing, how do you want me to reward you?"

At this moment, Liu Che finally withdrew his gaze from the heavy rain curtain, and the smile in his eyes became more and more obvious. Now, he only felt that under this huge surprise, he seemed to have recovered from his illness.

Behind him, Gongsun Qing was stunned at first, then hurriedly said:
"Your Majesty, how dare I take away the credit from the heaven? I just passed on a message."

"Even if there is any merit, it is your Majesty's merit! Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and he has long been inspired, so he specially sent the grandson of Emperor Jing to come to the God's Terrace to pray for rain with the Son of Heaven's will."

"The immortal held the copper bowl and received your Majesty's message. He then informed the heavens that this rain had come to benefit all living beings!"

In other words, Gongsun Qing was able to be an official who committed the crime of "deceiving the emperor" and still survived in Liu Che's hands. This was a unique ability in the world. With just a few words, he praised Liu Che very highly.

But being able to praise is not the real ability, guessing the Holy Will is the truth.

Therefore, he looked around, when none of the ministers dared to mention that name.

He fell to his knees.

"Although Your Majesty was inspired by heaven, it was the grandson of the Emperor Jing who really made this rain possible!"

Wow!
As soon as these words were spoken, the harmonious scene between the emperor and his subjects suddenly became quiet.

There was only the sound of heavy rain.

Liu Che restrained his smile, slowly lowered his head, and looked at Gongsun Qing indifferently.

"Your Majesty! The Emperor's grandson presented auspicious signs, which is the first merit! He did not eat or drink for three days to pray for rain, which is the second merit. The heavens were moved and recognized the Emperor's grandson's actions, which is the third merit!"

Gongsun Qing said again: "Since the heavens do not lie."

"With these three merits, Grandson Jing has the virtue of benefiting the common people!"

Silence again.

But Gongsun Qing lowered his head and said nothing more.

Instead, he waited for Liu Che's answer.

The current Majesty, perhaps due to his declining health and aging, has become angry, suspicious, cold-blooded and cruel!
But there is one thing that can make the name of the Han Dynasty famous, expand the territory of the Han Dynasty in the east, south, west and north, make the ministers fear and obey, make the soldiers respect, and make the kings respect and fear...

This is of vital importance!

Rewards and punishments are clear!

However, although Gongsun Qing firmly believed this, he still felt panicked when he felt the silence around him.

Just at this moment, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... the last sentence!"

From the direction of the altar, guards strode out from the rain, breaking the silence.

Liu Che looked over.

But the guard shouted loudly:
"I am so lucky, I will sing to express my feelings!"

"I am so lucky, I will sing to express my feelings..."

Liu Che was stunned, and his ministers also carefully pondered this sentence.

Then look at the blessings that are benefiting all people today.

Liu Che murmured, and he subconsciously connected all the auspicious prophecies before, and said involuntarily:

"I am so lucky, I should really sing to express my feelings..."

The words fell.

Huo Guang, who had been with Liu Che for a long time, already understood what Liu Che meant.

"Your Majesty, there is one more matter. Please make a decision as soon as possible."

Without waiting for Liu Che to answer, he continued:

"Just received news that because of the rain, the people and soldiers in Chang'an City have lost their will to fight."

"But Your Highness the Crown Prince still doesn't believe that His Majesty has already gone to Jianzhang Palace, claiming that he wants to eliminate the traitors and go to Ganquan."

"This is a rare opportunity... I hope that Chang'an, the great Han Dynasty, will not suffer from war and the loss of lives."

"Now, besides Your Majesty, only one person can put an end to this disaster!"

Liu Che lowered his eyes and looked.

Huo Guang said loudly, "Grandson of Emperor Jing—Liu Jing!"

Liu Che looked at the other person for a long time before he raised his head and looked in the direction of the Altar of the Gods.

suddenly.

He seemed to have made up his mind, "I once said that courage is to forge ahead alone, and courage is to be courageous wherever one is."

"Since the warrior has endured the danger, now is the time for him to enjoy his glory."

"I am clear about rewards and punishments, and I have the magnanimity to do so!"

He waved his hand.

"Let him come down and go to Chang'an City... to comfort the people for me, and let the prince stop the fighting and put an end to this war."

When these words were spoken, the ministers' hearts suddenly skipped a beat. Even Huo Guang seemed unaware that His Majesty would say this.

Comfort the people!

The great changes in Chang'an City really require a very powerful person to put an end to it as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the consequences of waiting any longer will be disastrous.

And now, if we talk about the entire Han Dynasty, apart from Your Majesty, perhaps only... the grandson of Emperor Jing who brought this auspicious sign is qualified!

Auspicious signs are bestowed upon you, and the will of heaven is recognized.

The halo around him now is obviously not something that an ordinary grandson of the emperor, or even a prince, can possess.

Your Majesty naturally knows that the impact of such an action is even more far-reaching. You must know that this is -

A move to win the hearts of the people!
