Chapter 330 Shocking Effect
The Minister of Rites nodded in agreement and hugged himself in fear: "It was a close call. I almost lost my composure and was rude."
The Minister of Personnel nodded in agreement and looked at the back of his hand which was bleeding from being pinched by him.
Other court officials also exchanged shocked looks implicitly.
They had seen strong winds and waves before, and thought they could remain calm no matter what happened. But they had never seen such strong winds and waves. It felt like they were standing on the beach, ready to enjoy the sunshine, and were suddenly swept into the sky by a tornado that covered the sky.
——The stimulation is numb.
The Minister of Revenue glared at the Minister of War and whispered, "Keep your voice down."
The Minister of War wanted to retort that I was not speaking softly enough! But thinking that the military pay for the New Year had not yet been distributed, the Minister of War did not dare to take the blame, so he swallowed his words and silently squeezed the armrest.
Then, something happened that shocked the court officials. The wooden armrest, which was as thick as a wrist, was actually broken by the Minister of War with just a light pinch.
The Minister of War was stunned. He turned his head to look at everyone and shouted silently: This is none of my business!
After the court officials came to their senses, they all glared at the Minister of Works, their eyes conveying the same meaning, "Such a serious occasion! How can you supervise and cut corners?!"
The Minister of Works was also dumbfounded when he saw this.
Not wanting to be rude, he walked a few steps to the wooden handrail that was destroyed by the Minister of War, examined it carefully, and then said in confusion, "It's strange, they didn't replace it with pine wood that is easy to break! There is no such thing as cutting corners."
The Minister of War whispered, "What's going on? Could it be that someone deliberately did something bad, and I just happened to pinch the place where a seam had already been sawed open?"
After hearing this, the Minister of Works breathed a sigh of relief.
The Minister of Justice came over cautiously, began to examine the stick, and whispered: "No, there is no trace of a knife cut on the cross section, it must have been broken by pinching..."
When the Minister of Works heard this, he became anxious again. If no one did it on purpose, then all the responsibility would be on him.
The Minister of Works could not help but put his hand on the wooden stick and squeezed it tightly: "Take a closer look to see if there is a hole in it... Shit..."
Other court officials also looked over upon hearing the noise, and the Minister of Rites even frowned and asked the Minister of Works to lower his voice.
But the Minister of Works paid no attention at all.
He stared at his hands with dull eyes. To be more precise, he was looking at the tiny wood chips appearing between his fingers. When he slowly loosened his hands, five clearly visible finger marks appeared on the wooden stick he was holding.
The courtiers who saw this scene were dumbfounded: !!!
The young official exclaimed in shock: "What's going on? Is my sister possessed?!"
As soon as these words came out, the Minister of Works seemed to have caught a piece of driftwood. He immediately whispered: "Yes! My craftsmen would never mess up the materials. So... is it possible that it is the blessing of the young imperial master that has made us stronger?"
The courtiers looked at each other in bewilderment.
This is outrageous, but it does make sense.
The Prince's Tutor rolled up his sleeves to look at his arm muscles, and clenched his fists hard. Others were horrified to find that the Prince's Tutor actually made a "crunching" sound.
The Prince's Tutor had a very satisfied look on his face, as if to say, very good, I can still beat ten more.
Prime Minister Li also felt the strength of his arms, sighed repeatedly, and muttered: "Regret, regret, regret..."
Prime Minister Wang couldn't stand the other party's chanting, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Are you afraid that His Majesty can't hear you?"
Prime Minister Li shut up instantly.
…
At the same time, the white mist pulled by Yuan Ruan had already fallen on the soldiers and civilians below.
Soon, the soldiers who were standing straight at first seemed to have eaten something wrong. Some of them were holding their breath until their faces turned red, some were bending slightly, and some were quietly moving their bodies. Their movements were not big, but for Yuan Ruan, who was in a high position, they could see everything.
The soldiers' reaction was relatively good, but the common people's reaction was much more straightforward. They looked at each other excitedly:
"Hiss... Good, so comfortable! What just happened?"
"I can't describe the feeling. I felt so strong and powerful, and I didn't feel any discomfort at all... Oh my god, Li Wa's father, how come you suddenly became whiter and taller?"
"What? I became whiter and taller? I don't know. I just feel like I'm full of energy right now. I feel so good that I want to run for three hundred miles!"
"Me too, I want to rush back to the fields right away and dig and plow like crazy all night long!"
…
The common people of Daxia were all very excited, and some of the non-Daxia spies and conspirators lurking in the middle were exposed.
They looked at each other in bewilderment, imitating the behavior of the common people of Daxia around them and whispering to each other:
"What's going on? Why do these Daxia people look like they've taken Wushisan? But I don't smell anything like that."
"No, no, no, that's not the point! Don't you think it's weirder when the white clouds fall?! She can actually command the white clouds."
"Yes, yes, yes! Look at this big tree. It's winter now! It was a dead branch before, how come some green buds have sprouted now?!"
…
The more the workers talked, the more frightened they became, and for a moment no one dared to speak.
At this moment, the green grass spreads out from the palace to the ground at your feet, the dormant treetops turn green, and beautiful flowers such as snow-like pear blossoms and rosy peach blossoms slowly bloom in clusters on the branches.
On both sides of the moat surrounding the capital, golden rapeseed flowers gradually appeared.
In the late winter, there are beautiful scenes of flower viewing and spring outings, which make people deeply shocked, intoxicated, or even unbelievable.
The common people in front of the imperial city did not dare to speak loudly.
They all covered their mouths, and after a while, they dared to carefully reach out to touch the flowers and plants that emerged. The moment they actually touched the real things, they almost went crazy.
At this time, one person took the lead, closed his eyes and prayed, then knelt down and kowtowed. The people around him seemed to be infected by the same evil spirit, and they all prostrated themselves on the ground, silently reciting their wishes.
This time, the soft cloud layer covered an area that was neither too large nor too small, not enough to cover Daxia, but it just happened to light up the entire capital city.
So in addition to the common people in front of the palace gate, the common people at the other altars also saw the miraculous blossoming.
Because there are no powerful people around, the common people's discussions will be more lively and their behavior will be more relaxed.
