Tang Dynasty: The pot is tied to the duck nest, the little rhinoceros is here!

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin suddenly paused, turned to Wei Zheng, and asked, "Xuancheng, which prefectures and counties are affected by this drought?"

Without hesitation, Wei Zheng replied, "Your Majesty, this drought has affected a wide area..."

Almost the entire territory of Yongzhou has been affected by the drought, with Liangzhou, which borders Yongzhou, being the most severely affected!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan directly addressed Li Shimin:

"Then arrange for someone to move this rocket launcher to Liangzhou. By the way, how long will it take for my uncle to get from here to Liangzhou?"

"If it's horseback riding, it will probably take a whole day!"

"One day? Sizi will go back with her brother in a while to get some things. Her brother is going to Liangzhou to bring rain."

Jiang Fan said that since arriving in the Tang Dynasty, he had been staying in the Tang Imperial Palace and had not gone out. He wanted to take this opportunity to experience the customs and culture of the Tang people.

It's a pity we can't drive a car over, otherwise we could bring an off-road vehicle, that would be so cool. But riding in a horse-drawn carriage is also quite a unique experience.

"Brother, I want to go too!" Little Sizi said in her childish voice.

"Brother Fan, I want to go too!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Jiang Fan, I'll go too!" Li Lizhi and Cheng Yang quickly said upon hearing this.

"Alright then! I can ride in the carriage my aunt's husband gave me last time. Oh, and bring the solar fan too."

Jiang Fan said slowly.

"it is good."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Fan took Xiao Sizi back again. Since they were going to take a long trip, it would be to the Tang Dynasty.

Naturally, beer, soft drinks, peanuts, and sunflower seeds should all be prepared.

Make some barbecue seasoning, and we can have a barbecue tonight.

Although the mission is to rescue people in Liangzhou, we must still eat and drink well along the way.

Seeing Jiang Fan carrying many bags, Li Shimin knew there must be a lot of delicious food inside. He licked his lips and quickly said:

"Jiang Fan, you don't know the way to Liangzhou, so your uncle will take you along!"

"No, no, you are the Emperor of Tang, how can you leave Chang'an so easily? Besides,..."

We're on our way, not on our journey. There's a big difference. You can't just say things like that, or you'll send me away again...

After hearing this, Li Shimin smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle-in-law didn't mean that."

Your uncle dotes on you so much, how could he bear to send you away? He doesn't even want to eat at your funeral.

"So, Uncle-in-law, are you... thinking of setting off a couple of firecrackers or just craving peanuts, melon seeds, and beer?"

"Hehehe... You should just keep this to yourself; it wouldn't be good to say it out loud..."

Afterwards, Li Shimin instructed Wei Zheng to go find Changsun Wuji.

Together they handle affairs of the court; if they encounter a major issue they cannot decide on...

He hurried to Liangzhou to find him, as he was certain he would go with Jiang Fan to Liangzhou to bring rain to the people.

Upon hearing this, Wei Zheng accepted the order and left.

Cheng Yaojin then walked over and said to Li Shimin, "Your Majesty, you are of inestimable strength..."

"For this trip... I will accompany Your Majesty and protect your personal safety!"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's lips twitched slightly, and he stared into Cheng Yaojin's large eyes, saying:

"Protecting me is a pretense; you just want to hang out with Jiang Fan and freeload!"

"Hehehe... Nothing can escape Your Majesty's discerning eyes. However, it is still very necessary for me to stay by Your Majesty's side."

What if we encounter some foolish bandits on the road? Surely Your Majesty can't personally deal with them, can you?

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin nodded slightly, tacitly approving Cheng Yaojin's suggestion.

The group quickly set off, traveling light with only four horse-drawn carriages, accompanied by several hundred Imperial Guards on tall horses.

Li Shimin's carriage didn't have a fan, so he shamelessly got into Jiang Fan's carriage.

When Jiang Fan's carriage arrived at the Vermilion Bird Gate, the Golden Guards on duty quickly stood with their hands at their sides on both sides of the road and clasped their fists in salute.

This is His Majesty's temporary residence, so naturally no one dares to stop him.

As Jiang Fan unfurled the curtain on the right side of the carriage, the Imperial Guards glanced at him sideways.

They caught sight of Li Shimin revealing his true face and immediately shouted in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin stuck his head out of the carriage window and gestured with his hand, saying, "Generals, please rise. Who is on duty at this moment?"

"Your Majesty, it's me, I'm on duty—"

As they were talking, they saw a figure rushing over from the front, his armor soaked by the rain.

Upon reaching the carriage, the man hurriedly clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, saying, "This humble general, Yuchi Baoqing, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"No need for formalities. Is there anything unusual at the city gate?"

"Your Majesty, there's nothing unusual, everything is normal. It's just that the sudden downpour caught the brothers off guard; they didn't even have time to grab their raincoats. The sky was fine just a moment ago, and then suddenly it started raining. How strange!"

Li Shimin smiled slightly: "Is it strange?"

Yuchi Baoqing nodded slightly.

Li Shimin continued, "This is not surprising, because of this rain..."

"It was I who ordered it to rain. I said there would be a drought and disaster, so the rain had to come, and then it rained..."

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Yuchi Baoqing was completely distraught.

If the person speaking to him wasn't the current emperor, Yuchi Baoqing would have lost his temper on the spot, not even his own father, Yuchi Gong.

There's a limit to bragging. You even said you made God send rain? Why don't you just say you're the Jade Emperor?

But these words came from His Majesty, and this was the only possibility that Yuchi Baoqing could think of.

That means His Majesty must have drunk fake alcohol today, and quite a lot of it. He's started talking nonsense instead of drunkenly.

Unfortunately, they couldn't correct him themselves; they could only listen attentively, and after listening, they had to say that His Majesty was mighty and wise.

Seeing this, Jiang Fan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Alright, Uncle, stop bragging. You'll blow your own horn out of proportion."

When Jiang Fan exposed his weakness on the spot, and launched a direct attack right to his face, Li Shimin couldn't hold back any longer and hurriedly said:

"Actually, making it rain isn't just my doing, you understand?"

"This humble general understands, this humble general comprehends! Your Majesty is mighty!"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Forget it, you can't understand things like rain."

It's pointless to tell you; you should go and inform your grandfather immediately.

"Have him follow the Imperial Guards and escort the launch pad to Liangzhou. There must be no mistakes!"

"Huh? Launch pad? To Liangzhou?"

"That's right, hurry up and go. Tell your grandfather not to stay cooped up at home. He always falls asleep during court sessions. Let's find him some work to do!"

"This humble general obeys the order!"

Yuchi Baoqing then handed over the task of guarding the Vermilion Bird Gate to his deputy general, and rode directly out of the city on horseback to his home.

……

After leaving the palace, Jiang Fan kept opening the curtains of the carriage to look outside.

At this moment, they had arrived at Zhuque Avenue in the Tang Dynasty.

At this moment, the street vendors were caught off guard by the sudden downpour.

Caught off guard, some vendors' goods were soaked by the rain.
