The north wind howled and the flags fluttered.
The red silk on the gate fluttered in the wind, reflected in the deep pool below, like a dancing red dragon.
"Open the gate!"
Following the order from the Minister of Works, red silk fluttered down and the roar of gears meshing rose from the depths of the reservoir.
With a loud "boom", countless birds were startled and flew up from the cliff. Everyone present held their breath and didn't dare to breathe.
A gate slowly lifted up, and white light suddenly emerged. Before anyone could react, the entire valley was filled with the sound of rolling thunder.
The moment the three gates were lifted at the same time, tens of thousands of tons of river water turned into a silver dragon and rushed out.
The emperor stood with his hands folded over his head, squinting his eyes as he looked at the surging mist. The splashing waves were reflected in his pupils, but he could not hide the excitement in his heart.
All sixteen gates were opened, and the entire reservoir seemed to come alive. The roar of waves hitting the rock walls made people dizzy and their feet numb.
A whirlpool as big as a millstone suddenly appeared on the water surface, and in a short while, the reservoir was filled with half of its water capacity.
The morning mist was shattered, and the water foam condensed into a rainbow bridge in the air.
Rainbow, rainbow again.
It is as beautiful as the rainbow rising towards the palace after the earthquake, and it is as full of hope.
Han Zeyu was wearing a golden mask and still wearing the gorgeous priest robe. He could be said to have made a living as a charlatan.
Heaven and earth, can you please give me the money?
Heaven and earth are in great trouble, and I am sure that all your unsatisfactory marriages will be ruined.
Master Han's business is extensive, including taking on Didi driving services, playing tricks, building canals, and custom-made color scripts, and he can tailor the plot to the protagonist...
Hmm? Who's looking at him?
Han Zeyu was counting his business scope in his mind when he suddenly noticed a burning gaze fixed on him.
What? Are you captivated by my mysterious outfit, unique temperament, and charming demeanor?
Don’t love me, it’s useless. It’s useless to hit me with your eyes. I’m a family man.
After being narcissistic for a while, Han Zeyu accurately locked onto the owner of his sight.
He was extremely sorry. He was too abrupt. People were staring at him out of a father's anger and confusion.
But on second thought, once a teacher, always a father. He has been Xiao Chenxuan's teacher for more than half a month, so his qualifications are not shallow.
Under the watchful eyes of the public, and on a good day that would go down in history, Han Zeyu decided to ignore the man for the time being.
If you want to exchange martial arts skills, he is always available to accompany you. If you are not convinced, just challenge him. How can he, a level five strong man, be afraid of you?
After the ceremony of opening the sluice gates to store water was completed, the emperor led all the civil and military officials to leave first.
The faces of the people are filled with happy smiles. With such a large reservoir, they no longer have to worry about drought.
I heard that it can also prevent floods and disasters. Although they have not experienced it, the effect must be great.
…
This wave of reputation has benefited the people, the emperor has won the hearts of the people, Mr. Erqi has gained fame, and Lord Qingbai has gained sales. In this way, no one loses.
As a royal merchant family, the Yu family will face qualification screening by the Ministry of Internal Affairs next year.
We cannot fall behind at a time like this. We must generously donate ten thousand taels of silver and do our bit to help.
Your Majesty is very pleased. The title of imperial merchant should be given to such a knowledgeable and interesting family.
It’s all thanks to Brother Han who set such a good example. He is a pillar of the country.
Han Zeyu was extremely envious when Yujia Bookstore made the move. What a “small contribution”! But that was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver!
But soon he had no time to envy because his way was blocked.
He is worthy of being the best master in Beijing, he is really capable.
The two had fought each other in the air before, but now the person wearing the mask was Han Zeyu.
Han Zeyu, who looked ethereal, was indifferent and said nothing, waiting for the other party to speak first.
Since Prince Pingyang has been able to reach his current level of martial arts, he must not be a reckless and impatient person, so he is also very patient.
"This kid is playing tricks and being mysterious. I wonder where this charlatan came from. Did he ask for his opinion before he became his son's master?"
"This old guy is so annoying and shameless. I don't know if he's his real father. He hurt his son and still shamelessly comes to cause trouble for him. Do you know how to write "overestimating your own abilities"?"
The two stood face to face, communicating with their eyes, silently provoking each other, and each wanted the other to make the first move.
Just wait and see, whoever strikes first will lose.
Well, Han Zeyu was the first to admit defeat. He was hungry and wanted to have a big meal, so he left first.
Before Prince Pingyang could feel happy, he saw a flash before his eyes. When he reached out to stop the man, he found that the man had disappeared.
What a fast movement! What kind of martial arts is this?
Master Han tells you that this is the method of rubbing oil on the soles of your feet. He wants to go to Ding's house to eat pork elbows and has no time to accompany him.
Prince Pingyang did not know the true identity of the white-robed priest, and it was very difficult to track him down, so he had no choice but to ask the emperor for help.
His Majesty the Emperor was rarely kind-hearted and reminded Prince Pingyang not to provoke the high priest. It was a great fortune for the royal family that he was willing to accept Chenxuan as his disciple.
Unexpectedly, Prince Pingyang refused to listen and instead tried to persuade the emperor, saying that the strange phenomenon at the altar on the day of the earthquake was a coincidence and that the emperor should not be deceived by the evildoers.
What else could the emperor say? Good words could not persuade a damned ghost, so no matter how much he said, it would be useless.
Prince Pingyang is known by his fathers as a martial arts saint and an unparalleled genius.
Facts have proved that the retired emperor and others were not wrong, but this martial arts fanatic, apart from his unparalleled martial arts skills, knew nothing about other social customs.
He also said that if Han Zeyu really had the ability, why couldn't he stop the earth dragon from turning over?
The emperor threw a tea bowl and told the martial arts fanatic to get out of here immediately.
If Han Zeyu had not turned the tide that day, who knows how many people would have died!
"Get out! Don't let me see you."
Prince Pingyang was driven out and felt puzzled, but he was also more convinced that the white-robed priest was a serious liar.
Han Zeyu was having a great time eating and drinking. When he arrived at Ding's house, he ate candied pork elbow and had a great chat with Mrs. Ding.
After his upgrade, he had a lot of precious medicinal herbs left, which he packed and sold to Mrs. Ding.
Mrs. Ding was filled with emotion at having met such a noble person. Because of the rare medicinal materials she handled from time to time, her family's status in the industry had risen.
Ding Junjie suggested that his father-in-law follow the example of the Yu family and donate some money, maybe he could even move up a level.
Han Zeyu looked at him approvingly, thinking that this fat man was indeed smart.
The most valuable thing is that he did not inherit his father's bad habit of being stingy.
Censor Ding is a god-like person. When it comes to persistence, Han Zeyu rarely has an opponent, but Censor Ding is definitely one of them.
Han Zeyu said goodbye, as he still had to go on a fishing expedition...
