Chapter 384 Let the outside court see the style of my Otsuki minister
Chief Su pointed in the direction of the back mountain:
“According to the old man’s observation, the earthquake seemed to come from that direction.
The deep mountains behind are still mountains, and there aren’t many people there, so there shouldn’t be many deaths.”
When the village head heard what Chief Su said, he nodded in agreement.
"Old Su is right, the earthquake came from the back mountain, there aren't many people there, so not many people will die.
Although more than ten years ago when there was an earthquake during the drought, my cousin...”
The head of the village suddenly stopped.
Thinking of something, he looked at Patriarch Ye and Patriarch Su with excitement.
"Lao Su, Lao Ye, do you still remember what happened shortly after the earthquake more than ten years ago?"
Patriarch Ye and Patriarch Su looked at each other with the same confusion in their eyes, not knowing why the village head was suddenly excited.
Finally, the impatient Chief Ye urged:
"What happened? If the village head has something to say, just tell him. Don't you know that people's memories are not good when they get old?"
The village head did not keep the secret and looked at the two of them as if seeking confirmation:
"The drought is over! It started raining shortly after the earthquake, and then the drought ended. Do I remember it correctly?"
The two clan leaders narrowed their eyes and fell into memories at the same time.
The village head nodded affirmatively:
"Yes, I definitely didn't remember it wrongly! Because I clearly remember that my cousin died in the earthquake that year.
Soon after his death, it began to rain in Taohua Village.”
Patriarch Ye showed a look of sudden enlightenment:
"Now that you mention it, I remember that the drought did end shortly after the earthquake. Does that mean..."
Patriarch Ye's lips were trembling with excitement, but the other two understood what he hadn't finished saying.
"It means that this drought is about to end."
The Sioux longed to say.
The same earthquake occurred near the Tianxing Mountains in Weishui Prefecture in the north.
However, the villagers in the surrounding villages had all fled to escape the famine, and no one noticed the earthquake that occurred here.
Three days. Since they broke the formation that day, Qin Min'an and his family rested for three days before they fully recovered.
On the same day, the sky over the capital was covered with dark clouds, strong winds, lightning and thunder.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, God lived up to everyone's expectations and sent down a heavy rain.
People rushed out of their homes, running excitedly in the rain to welcome the long-awaited rain.
The whole capital was filled with cheers:
"Hahaha, it's raining, it's raining."
"It's really raining. What the emperor said is true. Hahaha."
The children ran wildly in the rain and cheered, "Oh, oh, it's raining, it's raining."
The old man walked tremblingly into the rain with his cane, and kept muttering with his trembling mouth:
"There's salvation, there's salvation, God bless me."
Men, women, young and old all over the capital were immersed in the joy of the rain.
The same situation occurred in many cities in Dayue.
The sudden rain swept away the shadow of drought that had plagued the country for several months.
At this time in the imperial study, the emperor was reviewing memorials and laughing happily.
The memorials were full of good news from officials in various places about rain.
Jiang Defu, who was serving beside him, saw that the emperor was so happy and flattered him with a grin:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. God must have known your kindness and sincerity, so the rain ended the drought."
The emperor always liked to hear Jiang Defu flatter him, but today Jiang Defu's flattery hit the horse's hoof.
The emperor stopped laughing and glanced at Jiang Defu, who was fawning on him:
"Old man, you are so shameless to say something that goes against your conscience.
You clearly know that the drought was ended thanks to Uncle Ding’s family.”
If it were any other flattering eunuch, he would have knelt down and apologized long ago.
Jiang Defu, the old man, continued to praise very naturally:
"I swear to God, these words of mine come from the bottom of my heart and do not go against my conscience.
Your Majesty, think about it, if it weren’t for your kindness, how could Prince Ding be willing to take the initiative to step forward to resolve this drought.
In the final analysis, it is because Your Majesty is a good emperor that Prince Ding, as a subject, is willing to share your worries."
"Hahaha, Jiang Defu, ah Jiang Defu..." The emperor was so delighted by the photo that he stretched out his dragon claws and touched Jiang Defu's head.
Jiang Defu laughed happily, but he silently shed a tear for himself in his heart.
Alas, it is not easy for him to flatter the emperor while secretly reminding him to be a good emperor.
My late emperor, I think I have fulfilled your instructions.
The emperor was so happy that he remembered something very important:
"This time, Prince Ding and his family have shown great kindness to Dayue. I will definitely reward them well. Hmm... I need to think carefully about what reward to give them."
Jiang Defu suggested in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, the Emperor's birthday will be coming soon. Wouldn't it be a double joy if you could reward him at that time?"
The emperor nodded: "That's right!"
As he spoke, he took out a memorial and opened it. It was the latest memorial sent back to the capital by the Duke of Zhenguo.
“On my birthday this year, the Southern Zhao Society will send an envoy to Dayue to congratulate me and present a letter of surrender.
Hahahaha, when the time comes, I will reward Prince Ding with the title of Duke of Zhenguo at the birthday banquet.
By the way, there are also the generals who fought bravely in the battles with Beixiang and Nanzhao.
Let the outside court see the elegance and talent of our Dayue officials, and see if they dare to provoke Dayue at every turn! "
Jiang Defu: "Your Majesty is wise."
Dingwangfu.
Qin Min'an and his family did not know that the emperor was going to reward them.
At this time, they had recovered from the fatigue after breaking the formation and were practicing hard.
Then I was surprised to find that...
"Mom and Dad, my mental strength and lightning ability have both broken through level 9 and are now in the middle of level 9. How about you?"
In the flower hall, Qin Wan happily shared the news with her family.
Qin Jingnian also said:
"Me too. This time, I used up all my energy to break the formation. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I broke through the 9th level in one go."
Qin Min'an and Chen Yunzhi also smiled and said that their abilities had also been upgraded to level 9.
Qin Jingrui was happy to see his parents, brothers and sisters so happy, and he was happy for them too.
However, "It would be nice if I had super powers too."
Unable to practice like his family, Qin Jingrui always felt like something was missing.
Qin Min'an and Chen Yunzhi couldn't bear to see their eldest son's lost look, but they couldn't do anything about his supernatural powers.
Qin Jingnian suddenly said:
"Brother, can you ask Qiuqiu if he can give you superpowers as well?"
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"
Qin Jingrui's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to slip into the space.
Qiuqiu in the space had already heard the conversation outside. When he saw Qin Jingrui coming in, he hurriedly shook his head:
"No, big brother Host. The ball can't make you have super powers."
Qin Jingrui was a little disappointed. Qin Wan followed him into the space and couldn't help asking after hearing Qiuqiu's words:
"What about this? Can my elder brother practice this introductory practice without any special abilities?"
Qin Wan said this as he took a copy of the Introduction to Cultivation from the wooden shelf where miscellaneous items were placed.
That was the system reward for completing a certain task.
Qiuqiu said that they can only practice this after their supernatural powers have been cultivated to level ten.
