Jiang Tian transmigrated to the Great Xia Dynasty and was immediately met with a drought that had lasted for many years. The county magistrate, in order to pray for rain from the Dragon King, prepa...
In the dead of winter, auspicious snow fell from the sky.
The people inside and outside the capital city of Tai'an were overjoyed.
People flocked out of their homes, their joy evident in their expressions.
Heavy snow fell from the sky. In less than half an hour, the capital city and its surroundings were transformed into a pristine white wonderland.
The first thing people say to each other when they meet is "Congratulations."
"Snow, it's finally snowing."
"Three years of drought and five years of famine, but since you came to the capital, you have not only solved our famine problem."
"Now we are finally seeing the auspicious snow falling from the sky."
"A timely snowfall promises a bumper harvest."
"Even if it doesn't snow, with adults around, it's still a bumper year."
"That's right. Ever since you came to our capital, our land has been able to harvest 12 times a year."
"This has never happened before."
Inside the palace.
Jiang Tian carried his two little babies out of the room and looked at the heavy snow falling from the sky.
That feeling was absolutely wonderful.
Empress Qian Renxue nestled in Jiang Tian's arms: "I've never seen such heavy snow before in all my years."
Qian Renxue raised her head and looked at Jiang Tian: "Listen to what these palace maids and eunuchs are shouting."
The palace maids and eunuchs mostly chanted things like "auspicious snow foretells a bumper harvest" and "heavenly blessings are coming."
The snow fell heavier and heavier.
The next morning.
The snow inside and outside the palace was already above knee-deep.
Jiang Tian frowned after seeing it.
It snowed heavily all night, and the snow piled up to this thickness.
But the sky was covered with thick clouds, showing no sign of stopping.
"Could it be that a major snowstorm is brewing all day?" Jiang Tian sighed.
Snow fell heavily on the grasslands of northern Xinjiang.
In several places, the thick snow was already waist-deep.
In many places, herders had nowhere to shelter from the wind and snow, and they and their livestock froze to death in the countryside.
The people had finally received a welcome snowfall, but if things continue like this, it won't be auspicious snow, but rather a snow disaster.
The wind howled and the north wind was biting.
The wind howled like a monster.
Many eunuchs braved the wind and snow to shovel away the accumulated snow.
Jiang Tian walked over, his steps uneven.
Wherever he went, palace maids and eunuchs stopped to watch.
"Sir, where are you planning to go in this heavy snow?"
"I'll go and take a look around."
"With such heavy snowfall, aren't you going to shovel it? Shoveling snow is pointless; soon the snow will be thick again."
Jiang Tian waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop.
"Sir, if we don't clear it, the snow will pile up thicker and thicker, making things even more troublesome."
"Sprinkle some salt on the snow, that way you won't have to shovel it."
Jiang Tian climbed to the top of the palace tower.
The Imperial Palace is the tallest building in the capital city.
Standing atop the Meridian Gate tower of the Imperial Palace, one can see the entire capital city.
The capital city was covered in a blanket of white. Faced with the swirling snow, Jiang Tian realized that if the snow in the capital were as heavy as that in the northern frontier...
That would be a real problem.
The heavy snow continued for more than a month.
Many people's homes were buried under thick snow.
Many people no longer consider this auspicious snowfall.
Unable to leave their homes, the people talked freely and without restraint.
"This official has only recently returned to the capital, and the snow is falling."
"For more than a month now, all the crops in the fields have been ruined."
"Not only that, but we don't know how many people have frozen or starved to death."
"If this snow keeps falling like this, none of us can expect to survive."
"Some people have said before that Lord Jiang is actually a jinx, bringing disaster wherever he goes."
Pessimism quickly spread throughout and around the city.
…………
This heavy snowfall spread from Beijing all the way to the rest of the country.
The land of Jingchu.
All 15 rebel groups converged here.
Since the three rebel armies were wiped out by Jiang Tian, these rebels have been living in a state of panic and despair, like stray dogs.
The heavy snow prevented the rebels from moving, and the imperial army was equally unable to attack them.
A million rebels gathered together.
These people lacked food, and many froze to death amidst the heavy snowfall.
Inside the central command tent.
More than a dozen rebel leaders gathered together.
Huang Chao: "Gentlemen, this heavy snow has been falling for more than a month. I think if we continue to stay here, not only will our food supplies run out, but we will all freeze to death."
Li Zicheng: "Where do you want us to go? It's raining heavily everywhere, and everything is blocked by snow. We can't move an inch now."
Zhu Wen: "We can't move an inch, and the imperial army can't move an inch either."
I think we should head towards the capital. We'll find an opportunity to launch a surprise attack.
Pang Qingyun: "I just received a message by carrier pigeon from the capital. That bastard Jiang Tian has returned to the palace."
That kid's gone, he got incredibly lucky.
Everyone looked at Pang Qingyun: "We had planned everything, but we never expected that the current emperor would be a woman."
The current emperor has actually given birth to twins for Jiang Tian.
Everyone was speechless when Pang Qingyun said this.
"I think that as long as we kill Jiang Tian, all the problems will be solved."
The three brothers, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Liang, and Zhang Bao, glanced at Pang Qingyun.
