Lin Yushu was wearing a white dress and standing in front of the altar. Few people came. It was because after Lin Yushu entered the city, she had been reducing taxes and opening granaries to distribute grain to everyone, so there were only a few people supporting her.
It was not difficult for her to understand. Rebellion was a capital crime. When they saw no hope, how could they risk their life for a woman like her?
Soon, the result will be there.
Lin Yushu slowly stepped onto the altar and slowly recited the sacrificial text. The text was written by Su Wen and was very literary. Lin Yushu found it very difficult to pronounce, but she still finished it slowly. With a touch of her finger, she saw dark clouds gathering around her.
The people were very excited when they saw this scene. Lin Yushu curled the corners of his lips, and crackling rain fell on the ground. Su Wen finally breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the heavy rain with excitement in his eyes.
He had already determined that Lin Yushu was the destined emperor his master had mentioned.
Lin Yushu looked at the rain. The rain only fell within his jurisdiction. There was not much more. Lin Yushu had no problem with this.
After all, that place is not under their jurisdiction, so why should they let it rain for nothing?
As soon as Lin Yushu stepped down from the altar, the people knelt down to worship him. They didn't care whether the person sitting on it was a man or a woman. As long as she could give them a good life, they would like her.
Lin Yushu looked at the kneeling people, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes, and said: "Mr. Su, can the grain we have in hand still support us in reducing taxes?"
Mr. Su stroked his beard and tapped her head: "No, because we don't have much left, and we still have to fight. Do you think we are safe now?"
Yes, Lin Yushu knew that she could not be considered safe now. After all, she had only occupied a county town.
It hasn't reached that point yet, but she believes that day is not far away.
Soon, the news that the magistrate of Ling County had successfully prayed for rain spread to the neighbors. The rain was so heavy that it only fell in Ling County. The other counties were still sunny, but the neighboring counties could all see it.
Everyone initially thought that it was because the county magistrate did not pray for rain, but when the county magistrate was begged to go up to the rain-praying altar, still not a drop of rain fell.
Everyone thought that the sacrificial text was wrong, so they used their connections to copy the text back, but still no rain came.
The result of all this was that many anxious people ran to Ling County to open up wasteland. They would rather open up wasteland here than go back.
After all, looking at the shriveled crops over there, they have already prepared themselves for a total loss. It would be better for them to go to Ling County to open up wasteland. The magistrate of Ling County said that as long as they open up wasteland, the wasteland they reclaim will belong to them.
They will also measure the wasteland they have reclaimed, provide some subsidies, and help them get some fertilizer from other villagers.
In fact, in this era, everyone does not have enough fertilizer. Fertilizer is actually something that everyone needs. Lin Yushu can only exchange the fertilizer that can be produced in this era from the system, teach it to the people on his side, and then make the initial inorganic fertilizer cakes and give them to the people.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to teach, but it’s not appropriate now. She doesn’t want to give this thing to her opponent and increase her opponent’s strength.
After all, there are rebellions everywhere now.
Lin Yushu was making a lot of noise. She just waited for the enemy to tire themselves out, and she almost dragged the surrounding counties to death. However, she herself could not take in so many people, so some people returned to their own cities and sent a message to Lin Yushu, asking her to open the city gates for her.
Lin Yushu knew that such a good opportunity could not be wasted, so he started to attack the surrounding county towns directly. Every time, before he could even put in any effort, the county town gates were opened. The first thing Lin Yushu saw when he entered the city was that it was raining.
As a result, the magical legends about her became even more outrageous, saying that she was the reincarnation of a god, and that even the rain god would obey her orders as long as she gave an order.
Lin Yushu was also shocked when he heard about it, but he did not stop it. It was not until Lin Yushu occupied a state that the other princes who were fighting for hegemony realized that there was such a powerful woman.
As early as when they were fighting, they quietly occupied an entire state.
They were very annoyed, but then they thought, Lin Yushu is a woman, and as a woman, she would want to marry a good husband, especially an old maid like Lin Yushu who was unwanted by everyone.
Yes, Lin Yushu is only seventeen years old now, but she is already an old girl in the eyes of the princes.
They wanted to marry Lin Yushu and take over the state without bloodshed, but they also felt that Lin Yushu was vulgar and not worthy of being a wife.
Lin Yushu naturally knew what they were thinking. She even received eight marriage certificates in one day. Lin Yushu looked at the certificates and found that some of them wanted to take her as a concubine, some wanted to marry her, but only one said that they wanted to make her their daughter-in-law.
Lin Yushu burned all the marriage certificates and then wrote back. She gave the marriage certificates to those who wanted to marry her and to those who wanted to take her as a concubine.
She sneered. She was no longer penniless now. She had cannons. Her craftsmen made ten cannons according to her description.
Although its power is limited, in this era of cold weapons, it is enough to deter these people.
The one who jumped around the most happily was the one who wanted to accept Lin Yushu's letter. His letter was already a humiliation to Lin Yushu, so Lin Yushu didn't hesitate and directly gave it back.
But he felt that Lin Yushu was humiliating him, so he went straight to the door and beat him up.
This man's name is Zhao Cheng. He used to be an ordinary pig butcher with some martial arts skills. During the troubled times, he gained some power because of his martial arts skills.
Lin Yushu could see that this man was a little arrogant, otherwise he would not have said that he wanted to take her, a prince who was on equal footing with him, as a concubine.
However, Zhao Cheng did not think so. He thought that Lin Yushu was an old maid who only knew how to wield swords and guns and was not elegant at all. Now she dared to show up in public. She grew up in a military camp. He did not despise her and was already extremely tolerant of her.
Lin Yushu looked indifferently at the soldiers surrounding him and said, "Fire!"
People like Zhao Cheng are very timid. He was frightened at the beginning. Maybe there will be unexpected gains!
A smile flashed across Lin Yushu's eyes.
Zhao Cheng looked at Lin Yushu and saw that he didn't mention defense, but there were a few more round holes on the city wall. He laughed and said, "Lin Yushu, you are not afraid, are you? Even if you are afraid, you don't need to use this kind of thing to defend the city, right?"
Lin Yushu waved his hand, and there was a loud noise. Zhao Cheng was stunned for a moment. Looking at the place where many soldiers had just stood, there were now big pits one after another, and his eyes were full of fear.
"Monster, monster!"
