Chapter 562 The Same Rain
While Jiang Lin and his team were busy arranging things, the Ninth Prince also waited for the moment when Eunuch Li was most carried away.
Anyone who was in Beijing that day could see a dark mass of clouds when they looked up, and everyone could predict that an unprecedented downpour would follow.
People were running around on the street, feeling the weight of the dark clouds on them, and before they knew it, their bodies had become sticky.
"Could it be that someone has done something so evil that even the heavens can't stand it and want to punish him?"
"How could anyone be so capable as to bring down punishment from Heaven?"
There was no strong wind at this time, but the street vendors were frightened by the unprecedented weather. After careful consideration, they thought that no one would go out to buy things in such bad weather, so they started to pack up their stalls and go home.
As they were packing up their stall, the people next to them did not forget to make fun of the day.
The more they talked, the more outrageous their words became. Suddenly, someone said, "Don't tell me, this...could it be related to the rumors in the palace?"
"Hey! Where did you hear those lies again, kid? Do you think you can know what's going on in the Imperial City?"
"Hey! Don't believe me yet. I have a relative who works in the palace. I heard all this from him. It's almost accurate!"
“Hahahahahaha!”
His accuracy made people laugh. They shouldn't have expectations of people. They immediately thought of the rumors they had heard from this person before. It was simply... eight out of ten were wrong.
In the past, when they had free time, they would have treated this as a joke, but in this kind of weather, no one was willing to stay for his lies.
At this time, a light flashed across the sky, as if reminding them, "It's going to rain, why don't you leave quickly?"
Now, several people hurriedly speeded up their actions and ran away in a blink of an eye.
The person who had just spread the rumor was left stamping his feet. He was still leisurely packing his things, muttering, "You shortsighted people, you deserve to get wet in the rain."
The person who said this did not realize that if he didn't hurry up, he would be the one getting wet in the rain.
Sure enough, just after he put away all his things, huge raindrops began to fall. It looked very urgent and hit him so hard that it hurt him.
This made the already unhappy person extremely dissatisfied, and he looked up...
Hit hard by the raindrops, he quickly lowered his head and ran to a place with an eaves, which was just enough to block the harmful raindrops.
He finally raised his head, one hand on his waist, his head held high, and with his other hand pointing to the sky, he cursed, "You only know how to bully poor people like me. The emperor is about to give the world to a person of the opposite sex, why don't you go and hit him!"
Fortunately, in this heavy rain, almost no one heard his outrageous remarks, otherwise the red blood in his body would have been completely washed away in the rain.
However, this accusation is completely groundless. The rain in Beijing is of varying degrees of severity.
Even though it was inside the impregnable palace, it was still being washed away by the rain.
"Your Majesty, why did you agree with the minister today?"
Doctor Li stood beside the emperor and asked with his head down.
The emperor looked at the rain and fog in front of him, where he could not see any human figures or even the shapes of flowers and plants a foot away, and said nothing.
Doctor Li raised his eyes quietly, as if wondering if his voice was muffled by the rain.
"Don't you think I should?"
Almost at the moment when Doctor Li confirmed that the emperor did not hear his voice, he heard the emperor's voice.
"I don't know," Doctor Li replied, "and I shouldn't have asked. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
The emperor laughed and said, "It's okay. I know what you mean. You must have noticed that I am not happy about this."
Doctor Li was a meticulous person and he disguised himself perfectly in front of the emperor. The emperor only thought that Doctor Li was genuinely worried about his health.
Doctor Li did not reply, and the emperor continued to speak to himself: "However, I have no choice at this moment."
The emperor didn't say anything more, but just turned his head to look at the rain again.
In the eyes of the emperor, this rain was a timely rain. The emperor had not yet made a firm decision in his mind, but he was encouraged by this rain. He should have handled it this way and made the decision this way.
The same rain has different effects in the eyes of different people. At this moment, the Ninth Prince was also laughing at the rain.
This was a smile that came from the heart, making the Ninth Prince look a little childish for a moment.
"Prince Jiang, you can't leave now. You'll have to hide from the rain here with me today." The Ninth Prince looked at Jiang Lin's dark face and couldn't help but smile a little deeper.
"Don't worry, I won't bother you." Jiang Lin said gritting his teeth.
Jiang Lin could have left here when he saw a flash of lightning at the corner of his mouth, but he was fooled by the Ninth Prince's words. When he was about to leave next time, he was hit by the rain as soon as he stepped out of the door.
"You're welcome." The Ninth Prince obviously thought of the scene just now and smiled happily.
"I'll leave when the rain gets lighter." Jiang Lin insisted.
The Ninth Prince glanced at the rain outside which was becoming denser and heavier, and did not comment on Jiang Lin's words.
Jiang Lin was not the kind of person who cared about getting wet, but the rain was falling so fast that he could no longer see the road ahead in an instant.
Even Jiang Lin's horse was scared away by the rain. It was unknown what its fate would be in the rain and fog.
So in the end, Jiang Lin could only return to the Ninth Prince all wet.
Until this moment, Jiang Lin had not changed his clothes, and water drops were still dripping at his feet.
"Prince Jiang, there is no deep hatred between you and me, so why don't you want to touch my clothes?" The Ninth Prince looked at him and finally couldn't help but said something.
Jiang Lin could feel his body getting colder and colder. He just thought about changing his clothes, but he felt uncomfortable and didn't want to bow down in front of the Ninth Prince, so he forced himself to hold on.
Now that the Ninth Prince had said this, Jiang Lin followed suit. After glancing at him coldly, he said, "Thank you very much, Ninth Prince."
This sentence still made the Ninth Prince happy. He laughed too much today, but he didn't feel anything.
The Ninth Prince's clothing style was very different from Jiang Lin's. After Jiang Lin changed, he felt that everything about him was awkward, and he even had the urge to change back.
I just have to say, wearing dry clothes makes a huge difference.
So after Jiang Lin came out, he still thanked the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince accepted all his thanks. The two of them had no more communication after that, and they just looked at the rain and fog outside the door together.
