"Ha, then I'm afraid you'll never have the chance in your lifetime!"

Su Liluo met Gao Junning's gloomy gaze without fear and chuckled lightly.

This man is just as arrogant and conceited as Xiao Churen, and he has a pathetic sense of self-esteem!

After saying that, Su Liluo walked straight past them.

Che Yi followed behind and gave Gao Junning a gloomy look as he passed by.

His sister's description of Gao Junning as a "pheasant" is truly spot on!

At the same time, Gao Junning also noticed Che Yi's gaze, but when he met Che Yi's eyes, Che Yi had already looked away.

Strange, why does this person always give him a sense of familiarity?

Gao Junning wondered.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The day that Su Liluo and the others predicted would bring rain was this day. In order to see the results, Emperor Wenjian and his concubines came to the spacious observatory.

King Xiao, King Chu, and the regent of the Northern Desert all came to watch the spectacle.

That morning, the sky was clear and blue, showing no sign of rain whatsoever.

The Imperial Astronomical Bureau Chief, observing the weather, was naturally extremely confident, and thus walked with his head held high.

"Your Highness, Master Qingchen said it would rain today, but it doesn't look like it's going to rain at all."

When everyone had gathered at the observatory and were waiting for the rain, Xiao Wang couldn't help but laugh and tease Su Liluo and the others.

Although this matter has nothing to do with him, he would be happy to see Su Liluo suffer.

“It’s not time yet! The Taoist priest said it would rain at the end of noon, but it’s only just past noon.”

Su Liluo said without any nervousness.

She remembered very clearly whether it would rain today.

Because in her previous life, she was captured by Xiao Churen on this very day when the world suddenly changed, her arms and legs were broken, and she was imprisoned in the house where she was burned to death.

Originally, on this day in her previous life, she was going to tell Xiao Churen that she didn't want to be an undercover agent anymore and that she wanted to stay by his side.

She had prepared a surprise for Xiao Churen in the outer courtyard, but she didn't expect it to suddenly rain heavily. Then Xiao Churen's men braved the rain and broke in, crippling her and taking her away.

The rain lasted all afternoon and only stopped when the Su family arrived at night. Then a huge fire burned her alive.

"The weather looks so fine, it seems like it won't rain even if we wait another hour or two. Your Highness, why don't you give up? It wouldn't be good if we lost this bet."

At this moment, Xiao Churen glanced at the azure sky above and said confidently.

His men have searched every corner of the capital and will not let go of anyone who is performing a rainmaking ritual at this time.

There is absolutely no way Su Liluo can pray for rain today.

"This isn't over yet, is it? King Chu, why are you in such a hurry?"

Su Liluo scoffed calmly.

Everyone thought Su Liluo might lose, and even Xiao Ye couldn't help but frown as he looked at the sky.

He held Su Liluo's hand tightly and gave her a comforting look, as if to say that even if she lost, it didn't matter, she still had him.

He would never divorce her.

"Your Highness, the weather won't change suddenly. If you accept my calculations, I might be able to help you resolve the negative influence of Venus on you—"

Just as the Imperial Observatory Director was about to follow the King of Chu's request and say that if the Crown Princess was willing to acknowledge him and listen to him, he would help her, implying that she wouldn't have to marry into the Northern Desert, Su Liluo suddenly interrupted him impatiently.

"Stop talking nonsense, look, the wind is picking up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly swept across the previously calm ground.

Then, in an instant, the azure sky faded and suddenly turned gray.

"The world has really changed!"

"The weather was fine just a moment ago, how did it suddenly turn like this! It looks like it's about to pour rain!"

"This...this is impossible!"

Everyone looked astonished at the sudden change in weather, especially the head of the Imperial Observatory, who looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He's usually very accurate at predicting the weather!

How did things suddenly change?

Only Su Liluo coldly stared at the sky, the image of her tragic death in her previous life flashing before her eyes.

Her eyes were cold and resolute.

She will not let any of these people go.

"Luo'er, let's go into the main hall first, it's about to rain!"

Xiao Ye quickly pulled Su Liluo into his arms and led her toward the inner hall of the observatory.

After everyone entered the inner hall, they heard the sound of rain pattering outside.

A torrential downpour is imminent.

"It really rained heavily, Supervisor, you've lost!"

Emperor Wenjian sat on the high chair, thinking about the heavy rain he had just witnessed. He now finally believed that his Imperial Observatory's abilities were far inferior to those of that Taoist priest Qingchen.

"Your Majesty, this, this is absolutely an accident, an accident! Oh, no, it's that the Crown Princess and the others prayed for rain. Normally it would rain tomorrow, and if they prayed for rain at this time, the success rate would be very high!"

The supervisor knelt on the ground, and even at this moment, he still couldn't resist making excuses for himself.

He didn't believe that the stinky Taoist priest could predict so accurately; they must have secretly succeeded in praying for rain!

"Praying for rain? So many of us saw it. Where did you see them praying for rain, and what evidence do you have that they did?"

Emperor Wenjian said with a stern face.

The supervisor turned his gaze to Xiao Churen, a look that Su Liluo and the others also noticed.

"Why are you looking at the King of Chu? Do you think he knows something?"

Su Liluo said jokingly.

Xiao Churen tensed up and glared at the supervisor with displeasure. "If you're incompetent, don't spout nonsense!"

He has sent many people to investigate, but they have not seen anyone praying for rain.

In other words, the Imperial Observatory was incompetent, and Su Liluo truly remembered that it rained at this time in her previous life.

At this moment, Xiao Churen felt a surge of resentment. Why hadn't he remembered such trivial things as the rain?

“Father, if the Supervisor can’t even predict a rainstorm, then his claim that Venus is obscuring the Imperial Star is utter nonsense. Your Majesty, I hope you will severely punish the Supervisor!”

At this moment, Xiao Ye stepped forward and said coldly.

Now he can finally speak up and kill this bastard.

"Your Majesty, spare me! I am not talking nonsense. That Crown Princess is a scourge. With her around, His Highness the Crown Prince will be bewitched by her sooner or later and bring chaos to the country!"

When the supervisor saw that the crown prince was going to execute him, he was so frightened that he quickly begged for mercy and explained.

In the current situation, he must establish that the Crown Princess is a scourge in order to have a chance to survive.

But Emperor Wenjian no longer believed him and refused to listen to his explanations.

"Guards, strip the Director of the Imperial Observatory of his post and throw him into prison to await further orders!"

"Father, wait, your daughter-in-law has something to say."

Just as the supervisor was about to be dragged away, Su Liluo suddenly stood up.
