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

Chapter 281 If you can't praise something, don't force it!

Liu Shouzhong quickly bowed to Xiao Sizi, saying repeatedly, "Thank you, Princess Jinyang, thank you, young master..." He then took the chair and carefully sat down.

Li Shimin asked with a smile, "Governor Liu, have you completed the tasks I previously assigned you?"

"Your Majesty, everything has been arranged. However, Your Majesty, the heat here is too intense. Why not move to the city? I have already ordered wine and food to be prepared for Your Majesty, the princesses, the young master, and the Dukes of Lu and E to welcome you and wash away the dust of your journey!"

"I appreciate Governor Liu's kind offer, but right now... the rockets haven't been launched yet, and it hasn't rained. We can go after we finish our business."

Jiang Fan then instructed Jin Wuwei to move the rocket launcher and continue firing the rocket.

After giving his instructions, Jiang Fan carried Sizi back to the carriage—he didn't want Sizi to get soaked when the rain started.

Liu Shouzhong, standing to the side, was still looking up at the sky with a shocked expression.

He was already horrified when he heard it, but seeing it with his own eyes now left him speechless for a long time.

His Majesty had only said that it was a miraculous rainmaking ritual, and he dared not ask further. Liu Shouzhong glanced at Jiang Fan in the carriage.

So he approached the carriage and asked curiously, "Young master, what kind of treasures were those objects that shot into the sky with flames just now? Could you please enlighten me?"

Jiang Fan smiled and explained, "That's called an artificial rainmaking rocket; it's specifically designed for artificial rainmaking..."

"Artificial...rainfall? How is that possible? When the heavens send rain is entirely up to fate. How could we mortals possibly interfere with the decisions of heaven?"

"Not entirely, certain conditions must be met. For example, there are already suitable clouds over Liangzhou City, but some external triggering factors are lacking. I launch rain-inducing rockets into the sky, and after they explode in the clouds, the chemicals inside become the key to facilitating raindrops, and the rain will naturally fall..."

As soon as Jiang Fan finished speaking, raindrops began to fall from the sky to the ground.

Liu Shouzhong, who had initially been skeptical, was now completely convinced.

Although he didn't quite understand those terms like "chemical agents" and "rocket shells,"

But the rain that was actually falling in front of him completely overturned his understanding.

Just then, Li Shimin rushed over and ran into the carriage.

Although he moved very quickly, his clothes were still soaked, and his hair was not spared either.

After getting into the carriage, Li Shimin looked at Jiang Fan excitedly and said, "That's wonderful! This has finally relieved the drought. You've really done your uncle a huge favor!"

Jiang Fan waved his hand slightly and said with a smile, "It's nothing, it's mainly thanks to Si Zi. Without Si Zi, I wouldn't have had the chance to help you, my uncle."

When Xiao Sizi heard that there was a share for her, her big, bright eyes widened immediately.

Looking at Jiang Fan, she asked, "Brother, are you praising me? Could you praise me a little more? I love hearing you praise me, (^__^) hehe..."

After hearing this, Jiang Fan gently stroked her delicate nose with his index finger and smiled tenderly:

"Our Sizi is the best. If it weren't for Sizi, my brother wouldn't be here."

Since my brother can't come here, he naturally can't help everyone pray for rain.

Therefore, this timely rain is entirely thanks to the rhinoceros; we rhinoceroses deserve the greatest credit.

"Hehe, am I even more amazing than my older sister and second older sister?"

"Amazing! Amazing!" Jiang Fan said with a helpless smile.

"(^__^) Hehe... I'm the best in Jidao! Grandpa, why don't you praise me?"

"(⊙o⊙)...Sizi is so amazing, Grandpa..."

"╮(╯▽╰)╭ Oh well, if you can't praise me, don't force it. It's my boyfriend who can praise me, so just listen to him..."

Li Shimin: "..." His heart sank.

Yuchi Gong, standing beside the carriage, was looking up at the sky.

He let the large raindrops pelt his dark face, making no attempt to seek shelter.

I spent time with Jiang Fan last night. Although his cooking skills are excellent—the beer and barbecue were delicious—he was very attentive.

But he was skeptical about whether he could actually make it rain.

Cheng Yaojin came over and joked with a smile, "Let's find a place to take shelter from the rain, you big black guy, this rain is going to last for a while."

Despite his rough and unrefined appearance, he is actually quite thoughtful.

I simply don't say it in front of His Majesty.

"Now you've finally seen what the young master is capable of, haven't you?"

"If you say God will make it rain, God will obey. Isn't that amazing, young man?"

"Fatty Cheng, you mean this rain... really was caused by the young master?"

"Otherwise what? Do you think the young master came all the way to Liangzhou just for sightseeing?"

Soon, the remaining shells were all fired, and then another hour passed.

The rain gradually stopped, and a long rainbow appeared on the eastern horizon.

Like a rainbow bridge spanning the sky, it comes into view.

Jiang Fan jumped down from the carriage. However, the ground was slippery from the rain, and he almost slipped and fell.

Fortunately, Yuchi Gong, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and grabbed him.

"Young master, are you alright?"

Jiang Fan steadied himself and said to Yuchi Gong, "It's nothing, thank you very much, General Yuchi!"

"You're welcome, it was nothing. It just rained, the ground is slippery, so please walk carefully."

At this moment, Li Shimin and Liu Shouzhong also got out of the carriage one after the other.

Feeling the moist and fresh air after the rain, everyone's mood improved.

The rain moistened the parched soil in the fields, and the previously droopy crops gradually came back to life.

Liu Shouzhong walked to the rocket launch pad, examining the unfamiliar equipment before him, utterly shocked. He never imagined that these very things could influence the will of heaven; it was simply unbelievable, nothing short of a miracle.

Yuchi Gong also approached the launch pad, examining it closely. He then turned to Jiang Fan and asked, "Young master, this thing doesn't look particularly special. How did it dare to launch that missile into the sky? That's amazing!"

Jiang Fan explained, "It's nothing magical, just a product of human wisdom. It's nothing special..."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin suddenly sensed a strong "show-off" vibe—it was exactly the same as what he had said when he "showed off" in the past, absolutely the same formula.

Then Li Shimin asked, "Jiang Fan, if this rocket...were not fired into the sky, but instead fired forward...how far could it reach?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets—Li Er, what are you trying to do?

Has his warlike genes awakened? Come to think of it, this emperor who rose from the ashes would naturally think of war first.

Seeing the terrifying capabilities of a rocket launcher immediately brings to mind its military applications.
