On the third day of the third lunar month, perhaps the peach blossoms had faded, and then suddenly there was thunder!
The third day of the third lunar month is not the second day of the second lunar month, so thunder is not unusual.
However, the lightning struck the Fengxian Hall!
All the civil and military officials rushed to see!
As for who was watching the spectacle and what their intentions were, that's not something to worry about right now.
Not just anyone can come to the Fengxian Hall; only the Prince of E could.
He stood there, stunned.
The Fengxian Hall is definitely fine. A group of people are messing around with something, and the ground looks like it's been scorched, but it's not a big deal.
Xie Zhou didn't run that fast, but he could get a closer look. Is this because the technology isn't mature yet?
If it's about avoiding lightning strikes, and the lightning strikes a house but then hits a person on the ground, is that acceptable or not?
Of course, the group, looking disheveled but already displaying the air of mad scientists, were so excited that they didn't even react when they saw the emperor.
It's far from mature, but it's so interesting! Conquering it is more interesting than beautiful women and the Great Stone Kingdom!
The question now is: "Have you captured the electricity?"
He returned looking disheveled and grimy; who cares about appearances? His attitude wasn't good either; he pointed at the mushy mess that reeked of dirt and said, "Almost done!"
Look at it now, it's almost done? Almost cooked?
Strong winds are blowing! It's going to rain soon!
While a group of people were busy tinkering, Lei didn't stop.
Summer brings more thunderstorms, which is good for research; winter brings fewer thunderstorms, so we can do other things.
I don't want to see it here now; I'll show it to him after it's all set up.
As for what so many people saw? A charred mess?
Regardless of their intentions or whether they had a chance to pretend, Xie Zhou had already instructed people to keep an eye on them.
The King of E was genuinely concerned; how could the ancestors not be?
The King of Wu also glanced at it all. Was he really looking forward to the royal family being made a fool of themselves? Hopefully, they'll be able to laugh then.
A palace attendant rushed in: "Urgent! The Kingdom of Dele has invaded, and with the help of the Kingdom of Dashi, they have occupied eighteen counties!"
The crowd stopped, undeterred by the wind and rain; they were all enraged!
The Kingdom of Dele is a small country! Because of its unique geographical environment, the Great Zhao does not attack it.
It's quite bold! To act as the vanguard for the Great Stone Kingdom?
The Prince of E hurriedly said, "Could there be a mistake?"
The Emperor decreed: "Please have Prince E move into the side hall to protect the Prince E's residence!"
Yes! Without any hesitation, they dragged Prince E away. It was already a blessing that Prince E could live in this side hall of Fengxian Hall!
The King of E had no time to reason!
The King of Wu did not try to dissuade him. If he dared to act this way before his ancestors, then he might as well die before them! The reign of the Prince of E should come to an end!
Everyone else was terrified!
One emperor is enough to kill, but now Wu Wangquan is in charge of the Ministry of War, and the knife in his hand is also very sharp!
If the two brothers don't fight amongst themselves but instead attack others, they might push the Great Stone Kingdom to its limit.
However, there is no need to understand the reasons for the invasion by the Great Stone Kingdom.
Another eunuch came to report, this time there was no rush: "The woman from Longcheng County is about to arrive in Sheng'an."
Just then, another eunuch came to report: "Princess Luoshi of the Great Stone Kingdom wishes to see Lady Huan. Lady Huan wants to see her."
The emperor was furious: "See what? Fine, just go see it!"
King Wu was stunned for a moment. The emperor was clearly biased towards his crown princess!
Di Chang felt that she might be up to something. But it was the Great Stone Kingdom that wanted to do it.
Xie Zhou really wanted to go with them.
Are you in a bad mood right now? Can't your unfilial son see this? Let's go back to the Xuanzheng Hall and discuss how to deal with the Dele Kingdom!
The military officers generally agreed: Destroy it!
The Kingdom of Wunu is much larger than the Kingdom of Dele; the Great Zhao could conquer half of it. It's time to destroy the Kingdom of Dele.
Of course, there are specific techniques for extinguishing them.
In war, one must consider the costs and benefits.
Splash! A torrential downpour!
The King of E was alone in a side hall, a small room with nothing in it.
There was nowhere to sit, and it was raining and cold; he felt chills all over.
The eunuch simply locked him inside. The Prince of E was so angry he wanted to curse!
Finally, someone opened the door and led him out, but the King of E didn't even see who it was.
It was raining heavily outside, and a strong wind brought a chill!
The Prince of E didn't even see the direction clearly, and followed the people to enter the Fengxian Hall.
Boom! A bolt of lightning struck, and three people fell to the ground.
The eunuch came over to take a look, wondering if someone who had been struck by lightning in the Fengxian Hall still dared to walk there casually.
The Prince of E was severely injured, but he wouldn't die, so the palace official wasn't in a hurry to report it.
The Emperor was busy with important matters in the Xuanzheng Hall; the fact that Prince E had been struck by lightning wasn't a concern. Otherwise, in his anger, the Emperor might have summoned lightning again!
**
Qing'e Palace.
Huan Yue is making preparations.
Even when you're going to meet someone, you should be well-prepared.
The female official looked a little worried: "Aren't those double maces heavy?"
Huan Yue said, "It's quite light."
A palace maid came and reported, "The Princess Consort of E is in a hurry to see you."
The young maidservant chimed in, "What is the Princess Consort of E doing here to see Your Majesty after what Prince E did in Fengxian Hall? How many people would dare to treat an urgent message as a joke? They're just used to talking."
Battle reports can sometimes be wrong, but in the past year, there haven't been any major errors in battle reports.
Even if the Great Stone Kingdom was wrong to invade the Dele Kingdom, the imperial court still had to use that as an excuse to fight back!
Look at how restless the princess of the Great Stone Kingdom is; the Great Stone Kingdom must be no good!
Huan Yue was ready, wearing several thick layers of leather armor, which would not only keep him warm but also protect him from hidden weapons.
Huan Yue had it made; it resembled a bulletproof vest. It was simpler than regular armor, but extremely exquisite.
It's very comfortable to wear; for us mortals, an extra layer of protection is an extra layer of protection.
Even emperors and crown princes could wear a layer when it wasn't too hot.
Huan Yue seems to remember there were ones with a crotch? They were longer and provided better protection for the lower abdomen, which wasn't difficult.
The rain outside has stopped.
Huan Yue naturally couldn't go despite the wind and rain. In Sheng'an, there was no rush, no matter how urgent it was.
The sky is so clear after the rain!
Some trees have already turned green, and the rain continues to drip.
The flowers are in full bloom, so beautiful! The birds are singing so sweetly!
Huan Yue was in a great mood! He couldn't stay in Qing'e Palace forever.
Going out for a walk or getting out of bed is no problem.
However, by imperial decree, she was forbidden from leaving the palace, and Princess Luoshi was specially taken to a newly built area in the Yeting Palace.
Although the Yeting Palace was excavated three feet deep, about half of it was actually destroyed.
Rebuilding is a bit troublesome, but if done reasonably, it should look okay.
Huan Yue walked along the east-west main road and did not enter the inner palace.
Consort Zhu emerged from Chang Le Gate and specifically sought out Qing'e to speak: "The Princess Consort of E is looking for me again."
Huan Yue remained seated in the car.
Zhu was also sitting in the car, with fans around them; it was a nice place to chat.
Huan Yue asked curiously, "What use would it be to us women for something like this? Could it be something else?"
Zhu thought about it and agreed.
The Emperor punished Prince E, and neither the Crown Princess nor Consort De could easily intervene. Prince E's lineage had existed for so many years, unlike Prince Peng, who had little influence.
Therefore, if it were for the Prince of E, the Princess Consort of E would have many more people to turn to, even the Prince of Song or the Old Ancestor!
If she weren't the Prince of E, would she be so confident?
The Zhu family was worried that the Prince of E's entire clan would be exterminated! Even worse than treason was the complete annihilation of the Prince of E's lineage.
They can just pick any prince to be the grandson of the King of E. That way, the lineage of the King of E won't end, but it has nothing to do with the current King of E.
