It rained heavily early on the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival!
In the blink of an eye, it went from summer to winter.
The wind howled outside, and people huddled under the covers to keep warm.
There was a 'DuangDuang' sound, I must have misheard, it sounded like hail hitting the roof.
If it gets any colder, it might snow. I wonder how many people will freeze to death.
Hiding under the covers, Huan Yue worried that this year's bumper harvest might just go down the drain.
The roof is rattling, is that ginkgo nuts falling down? With this strong wind, I wonder how many will fall.
Or it doesn't matter how much is blown away or how much is lost; the real problem is that it might hide somewhere and rot.
Xie Zhou hugged his wife to comfort her, saying there was nothing he could do about it.
Huan Yue touched the baby in her belly; the baby was sleeping peacefully.
She drifted off to sleep again, half asleep. It's just a rain shower; things will be fine from now on.
Xie Zhou is protecting his wife, why is she thinking so much?
Seeing that she was sleeping peacefully, he felt relieved.
Crops also weather storms; they're not necessarily that delicate. A smaller harvest is still a good one.
It's like looking at seedlings; they're all good kids at first, but as they grow, all sorts of problems arise, and only the ones you actually get your hands on are truly valuable.
In places like Changhe County, rice is harvested in about half a month. If this rain isn't too heavy, then the impact won't be too great.
If it really rains heavily, there's nothing you can do. There are plenty of times when God gives you hope and then takes it away.
Hope is just a possibility.
When Huan Yue woke up again, it was still dark and the rain was still pouring down!
Xie Zhou got up and sat outside.
The eunuch came to report: "It seems that the rain is heaviest in Sheng'an City, while the surrounding counties are still alright, and the weather is getting cooler."
Xie Zhou was neither entirely at ease nor overly worried. If the Great Zhao were even larger, it would be one thing if it rained here and the sun shone there, but perhaps it would be summer in the south and winter in the north, with a bumper harvest here and a poor harvest there.
It's rare for someone to be completely in debt, except during times of war and chaos.
Therefore, humans are still more powerful than nature.
If Heaven gives people a way to live, then people can choose not to give them a way to live.
Xie Zhou went inside to see if his wife was awake. "She's sleeping so well, I'll give her a kiss." He also gave his precious son a kiss.
Huan Yue thought he was probably kissing a little bottom.
Xie Zhou blinked. "Have we kissed many times?"
Huan Yue raised his hand to slap him.
A palace attendant ran in to report: "The lady says that all the grain is gone."
Huan Yue said, "Is she about to give birth?"
The eunuch left.
Huan Yue was still not entirely at ease: "The inheritance of bloodlines is one thing, but some poisons can be passed on to children, and so can evil magic."
Xie Zhou frowned slightly, then kissed his wife: "Don't worry."
Huan Yue nodded.
It's not entirely fair to say the child is innocent; in such cases, it's better to kill the innocent than the guilty.
He's just a newborn baby, not that scary. We can kill him when he uses his evil magic.
There's no need to do it for anyone to see, Huan Yue thought. If conditions allowed, he could even do research.
If you have the ability, you can refine the evil magic and leave that to a bunch of madmen.
Palace maids came to serve the lady.
Huan Yue heard that the heavy rain outside was affecting the vegetables in the field.
Chao Yunlai reported, "Princess Changqing has arrived and is playing with them in Chenghua Hall."
Huan Yue nodded.
At this point, it's not that Di Baose and Guo Bing can't spend time with the children. Qiu Xiangyuan, however, has to be there.
Of the several people in Qing'e Palace, Princess Changqing would be quite suitable, as her surname is Xie.
At this time, it was still dark in Sheng'an City, and the city gates had not yet been officially opened.
The Imperial Guards are searching the city!
Anxingfang, Chen family.
Chen Zuo sat in his study, watching the rain outside.
Chen Yin was also there. He really didn't do anything; he just acted like a spoiled brat, wandering around Sheng'an a couple of times.
There's no need to learn how to be a playboy; his family background speaks for itself.
Chen Zuo looked at his grandson, and it wasn't that he couldn't take him back, but rather that he had matured through participation.
I owe the Duke of Qi a favor for this matter.
Chen Yin said, "It seems that the Duke of Qi hid in the palace early this morning."
Chen Zuo nodded. As long as her father was willing to protect her, Xie Yu would be fine.
Before long, someone came to the Chen family's house.
This is not the first time.
Chaos will come again and again, big chaos or small chaos. But we can't let our guard down, lest we push them to the brink. This wasn't originally the Chen family's business, and it wouldn't be worth it if they took a bite out of us.
Chen Ke said, "This time they were too arrogant, and what they mainly wanted was their money."
Chen Shi sighed, "They even dare to guess what the imperial grandson looks like. They have absolutely no respect!"
This is blatant provocation. If we don't teach them a lesson, when will we?
The grandson of the emperor is destined to become emperor. Although every emperor was a child at one point, he cannot be treated lightly!
It's quiet outside.
Chen Ke guessed that the Imperial Guards were lying in wait everywhere.
Just like the residences of Prince Peng, Prince Wu, and even Lü Liang, they could guard the place while waiting for the rabbit to come, managing to do both at the same time.
Arrest them regardless of whether they are right or wrong.
At this time of day, everyone with a brain is staying home. The morning grocery shopping can wait.
If you get caught up in it and die, what's the point of buying lots of vegetables to offer at your grave?
Besides, it's Mid-Autumn Festival today, so chicken, duck, fish and meat have probably been prepared long ago. I wanted to buy some fresh ones today, but it's not a rush if I don't have any right now.
Besides, someone like Chen Zhen has grown several pots of vegetables at home, which might come in handy at times like this.
Chen Yin wondered, "How are the crops in the fields?"
Chen Zuo, with his white hair and deep expression, said, "It's hard to say. But it shouldn't escalate into anything serious."
Given the turmoil in the Great Stone Kingdom, a direct attack is unlikely. The Wunu Kingdom is also causing trouble; a desperate, all-or-nothing attack wouldn't be very meaningful.
The Great Zhao destroyed the Wunu Kingdom and the Dele Kingdom, which was supported by the Great Shi Kingdom.
This is quite a deterrent to neighboring countries!
