Zhao Wanxi watched these people getting closer and closer to her, her eyes full of fear, but she couldn't make a sound.
Just when these people were about to rush forward, a huge hand suddenly stretched out from the sky and blocked the people and Zhao Wanxi.
The people all knew this hand.
This is the hand of the goddess!
The people stopped one after another and looked at Sang Jueqian's hand with uncertain eyes.
"Why did the goddess stop us from killing the demon girl?"
"Yes! This witch had previously belittled and slandered the goddess's reputation, and now the goddess is actually protecting her. She is so soft-hearted!"
"Goddess, we have no choice but to do this. If we don't kill the witch, how can the heavens stop their wrath? When will this heavy rain stop?"
Sang Jueqian leaned into the window and looked down at all the people below.
“The story of the witch is completely false.
You might as well think about it carefully. Who told you she was the Dragon Girl? Who told you she was the Rain Goddess? Now, who is telling you she is a demon girl? Who said that if you kill her, it will stop raining?
Sang Jueqian's voice came down from the sky, as loud as thunder, but the voice was very pleasant to hear. He spoke at a steady pace, and every word he said was heard by everyone.
Many people looked confused.
yes!
Who said that killing Zhao Wanxi would stop the rain?
What should we do if the heavy rain still stops after killing Zhao Wanxi?
Seeing their thoughtful expressions, Sang Jueqian sighed inwardly and continued, "I can tell you with absolute certainty that even if you kill her, the heavy rain will not stop.
The heavy rain never fell because of her, and it would never stop because of her.
Natural disasters are the laws of nature and cannot be stopped or changed by human power.
But I am not asking you to accept your fate. Instead, I hope that you can survive well in natural disasters through your own efforts.
This is the true meaning of man conquering nature."
Always thinking about getting something for nothing, always thinking that the gods can make rain fall from the sky with a wave of their hands, always thinking that killing a so-called witch can stop the heavy rain, what is the difference between this and wishful thinking?
Not only that, they also believe everything they hear and follow the crowd. They are easily misled and will put the blame on others for anything that happens. They never feel they are wrong.
They were the ones who had been talking about Zhao Wanxi being the Dragon Girl and saying that she, the goddess, was incompetent.
But now, they seemed to have forgotten all these things and put all the blame on Zhao Wanxi.
Sang Jueqian looked at these people and felt deeply tired for the first time.
Who said there was no cyberbullying in ancient times when there was no Internet?
Word of mouth, pointing fingers in person, and even physical violence are more terrifying than cyberbullying.
Li Junyan came here with his men at this time.
Seeing that the guards brought by Li Junyan stood in front of the people and someone helped Zhao Wanxi who fell to the ground, Sang Jueqian withdrew his hand and retreated out of the window.
At this moment, the people suddenly knelt down on the ground.
"Goddess, we were wrong! We shouldn't have spread rumors! We shouldn't have listened to other people's nonsense!"
"Please forgive us, Goddess! Please don't give up on us!"
"Please forgive me, Goddess!"
Some of them even started crying while talking.
Looking at this scene, Sang Jueqian felt very complicated in his heart.
Can we say that these people are really bad?
Not necessarily.
They are just ordinary people with limited abilities, they just want to live a good life.
Because some problems cannot be solved, people are willing to believe some outrageous remarks, hoping that by doing so, everything will return to normal.
To be honest, he is just a pitiful person.
Sang Jueqian sighed softly, "Everyone, get up, go home, change your clothes, dry your hair, and drink some hot ginger soup.
I don't know when the heavy rain will stop, but you don't have to worry too much. The King and I have already prepared a response plan. If your houses are flooded and uninhabitable, we will never let you soak in the water."
What Sang Jueqian said was exactly what all the people were most worried about.
Now that the most worrying thing has been solved and Sang Jueqian has given his guarantee, the huge stone that has been weighing on the people's hearts has suddenly fallen to the ground.
They kowtowed repeatedly, thanking the goddess non-stop, and finally, at the urging of the guards, left and went home.
It didn't take long before the previously crowded streets were filled with people walking and dispersing, leaving only Li Junyan, Lin Qi, and a few guards watching over Zhao Wanxi and her servant.
Li Junyan glanced at Zhao Wanxi and the others calmly, and said to Lin Qi, "Take her back to the palace first."
"yes!"
Lin Qi was about to ask someone to take Zhao Wanxi back home when Zhao Wanxi seemed to wake up from a dream and slowly spoke.
"Your Highness! Eunuch Li ran away!"
"He can't run away."
Li Junyan only left this sentence, then turned around and strode towards Prince Chen's Mansion.
Zhao Wanxi bit her lip and looked at Lin Qi, "Master Lin, Eunuch Li brought a group of guards, all of them are good..."
Lin Qi looked at Zhao Wanxi with a strange look, not understanding why she still raised this issue. Didn’t his prince just say that Eunuch Li couldn’t get away?
Although he secretly complained, Lin Qi gave a serious answer due to their different status. "Don't worry, Miss Zhao. The city wall of Tingzhou is newly built and is ten feet high. They can't escape."
Not to mention Eunuch Li and his few guards, even if hundreds of people came with ladders, they could not climb the city wall just because they wanted to.
