Woo~!
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered and strong winds blew!
Snap!
After a loud thunder, silver snakes danced wildly in the clouds, as if some mysterious force was stirring up trouble!
The way many people looked at Lu Chen had changed, from the initial resentment to the current awe and fear!
If it weren't for his noble status and the fact that the emperor was still here, some superstitious people might have already knelt down and bowed before Lu Chen.
Crash!
Once the first drop of rain as big as a bean falls from the sky, the whole raining process becomes unstoppable!
In an instant, heavy rain poured down and the visibility around was less than three meters!
Everyone present had a look of joy on their faces. Some officials even ignored etiquette and rushed out of the team, pointing at the rain falling from the sky and laughing.
Led by these people, the palace maids and eunuchs also cheered.
"It's raining, it's really raining!"
"Great! After three years of drought, finally there's rain!"
"God bless Daqi, God bless Daqi!"
Just as a group of people were cheering wildly, another official rushed out from the middle of the team.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty! May Your Majesty be blessed with great fortune and may Heaven bless our dynasty!"
The person who spoke was Jiang Tao, the Minister of Rites.
The Great Qi adopted the system of three provinces and six ministries, and the Ministry of Rites was responsible for matters such as rituals/sacrifices/tributes.
The Great Qi Dynasty has suffered from severe drought for three years, but now it has finally received rain. After that, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely burn memorial tablets to offer sacrifices to the heavens.
At this time, the second-in-command of the Ministry of Rites stood up and flattered him, which was very reasonable!
Li Zhuo also stood up from the throne. He stretched out his hands to catch the raindrops falling from the sky and said in disbelief, "It's actually raining?"
After he finished speaking, he seemed to suddenly realize something and quickly turned around and pointed at Lu Chen who was still inside the cauldron, saying, "Quick! Go and invite Master Lu out!"
After Li Zhuo's reminder, people remembered that Lu Chen was still soaking in the pot!
If I had added some chopped green onions or something in advance, it might have been marinated by now.
"Shangxian, Shangxian, please come out quickly."
"Master, please wait a moment. I will come to rescue you."
"What are you guys still standing there for, you bastards? Hurry up and invite Master Lu out."
A group of people were in a panic, even crawling towards Lu Chen, and at this moment Lu Chen looked at his hands and fell into deep thought.
"What's going on? Am I really that strong? Could it be that after traveling through time, the cheat code I received is the kind that can make my words come true?"
"I hope for world peace."
"Men's football team wins the World Cup!"
"The A-share market is turning bullish!"
"It becomes 18 centimeters!"
Lu Chen looked down and felt very sorry that he really didn't have any golden fingers. His words becoming reality was just a fantasy.
"Goddess, please get out of the water quickly! It's cold!"
The one rushing in the front was Prince Duan, who had just been determined to kill Lu Chen. At this moment, his face was full of wrinkles, like a blooming chrysanthemum.
At the same time, Jiang Tao had also come to the other side of Lu Chen. The two of them supported Lu Chen on the left and right and helped him out of the cauldron.
Looking at the flattering smiles of the people around him, Lu Chen felt that his life was finally saved.
Prince Duan's face was devoid of any murderous intent. He smiled and took Lu Chen's hand, saying, "Master Lu is truly capable. I've long seen that you're no ordinary person. I, Da Qi, will rely heavily on you in the future."
Jiang Tao also flattered him, "That's right, with the great power of Master Lu, the future of our Great Qi will surely be prosperous, and expanding our territory will be no problem."
What the hell? It's a fucking good weather! Hearing this, Lu Chen felt like his PTSD was about to kick in.
This time I was just lucky and happened to catch the rain.
I really can't let him do this again.
"No, I can't take credit for this kind of thing so easily."
Lu Chen's eyes rolled, and he immediately pushed aside Prince Duanqing and Jiang Tao who were supporting him. He bowed to Li Zhuo who was sitting on top and said, "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so you are naturally blessed. As the saying goes, those who are appointed by Heaven will live long and prosper. Furthermore, Your Majesty is diligent in governing the country, loves the people, and cares deeply about the world. Naturally, this has moved Heaven, and that is why this sweet dew has been bestowed upon you."
"None of this has anything to do with me. It's all thanks to your Majesty's daily words and deeds, and your adherence to the ways of a wise ruler. I firmly believe that under your Majesty's leadership, we will be able to work together and create a new and prosperous dynasty!"
"Let me boldly congratulate Da Qi and His Majesty in advance!"
After saying these words, Lu Chen could clearly feel that the hand that Prince Duan was holding on to him trembled slightly.
Lu Chen looked at Prince Duan with some confusion, thinking to himself, what's the situation? I want your Li family to have a long and prosperous dynasty, and you're not happy about it?
As for Jiang Tao on the other side, he stared at Lu Chen with a vigilant look.
How should I put it? It was the look of someone seeing a fellow creature.
Jiang Tao originally thought that only a minister like himself who was lucky enough to be promoted would constantly flatter the emperor.
I didn't expect that! I didn't expect that! You, a stinky Taoist priest with thick eyebrows and big eyes, are also standing behind the horse's legs?
What made Jiang Tao even more unbearable was that after Lu Chen finished saying these words, he was actually welcomed by the crowd's echoes.
Looking at those smiling faces, Jiang Tao was so angry that his mouth was crooked!
What do you mean?
If I, a person from Confucian background, flatter the emperor, I am a flatterer, and if he, a person from Taoist background, flatters the emperor, he is a spy on the secrets of heaven, right?
