Chapter 8 A Pearl

No one saw that in that hidden corner, the panic-stricken internal officer hastily replaced the sacrifices that were supposed to be sent to the altar.

There are some unknown things hidden in the sacrifice that was discarded aside.

The courtiers who stood with their heads bowed kept silent and frowned. The appearance of the emperor disrupted all the plans. They never dared to tamper with the sacrifices used by the emperor, so they could only replace them temporarily.

This ceremony of praying for rain and praying went very smoothly. Si Ningchi obeyed the words of the ceremony, burned incense and chanted sutras, raised his hands above his head and lowered his eyes to recite the oath of prayer. Unexpectedly, as the incense ash flew and the candle flame flickered The sky suddenly became cloudy.

The muffled thunder sounded, and the ministers who were standing quietly under the altar were all dumbfounded. Looking up at the sky, they suddenly felt cold raindrops falling on their cheeks.

But within a few breaths, the raindrops became more and more dense, and the Si Ningchi phoenix robe fluttered in the wind.

"It's manifested, the Goddess of Rain has manifested!" Who knows who yelled first and knelt down, and the crowd suddenly woke up in shock and looked up at the majestic empress on the altar, the phoenix on the dress seemed to be It's like spreading your wings and flying high.

Even though the sky was already covered with dark clouds, but she could vaguely see a soft light descending on her body. This scene was like a miracle.

No wonder it attracted such shouts, the eyes that looked up one after another, forgot to breathe for a moment, and knelt down and shouted auspiciously.

Si Ningchi: "...?"

She looked as usual, as if she had known this before. In the original book, the sacrifice was touched by someone, bleeding and black smoke came out. Rain is also a magic trick!
And now...

Si Ning Chi looked down at the courtiers who were kneeling and shouting, with a slight smile on his lips, she had expected that as long as the emperor followed her to worship, those people would not dare to do anything.

Si Ningchi turned his head slightly to look at Zhao Zongheng, but when he turned his head to look, he met Zhao Zongheng's shocked eyes, he...

He actually believed it! ?

The emperor who was standing quietly by the side looked at Si Ningchi steadfastly, with the corners of his lips tightened and a strange color flickered in his eyes.

"The emperor's benevolence touched the heavens to send down the rain. It is really a blessing for the heavens and the blessings of the people." Si Ningchi bowed his knees in a good way.

"..."

Zhao Zongheng loosened his clenched hands, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes to look at the woman who bent over and lowered her head for a while, the rain was getting heavier and it fell on the clothes, which made him wake up a lot.

He slightly raised his hand and said: "The queen has made great contributions in praying for rain, and has benefited the common people. I am very comforted to have such a virtuous queen."

This heavy rain has just stopped for a whole day.

Taiwei's House.

Dong Yingrui looked up at the dripping rainwater from the eaves and squinted his eyes, and the staff behind him walked up and down, looking at the heavy rain that had stopped, he also sighed and said: "I never thought about planning a lot, but in the end, I finally achieved the queen's virtuous name. "

"Could it be that the empress is really a wise and honorable queen, so that she can cause the rain god to come?"

"Hmph." Dong Yingrui sneered when he heard the words, shook his sleeves and said, "It's just a coincidence, do you still take it seriously?"

"I'm being stupid." Zhang Chenlin bowed his eyebrows and cupped his hands, looking at the face of the Taiwei, he said: "There is news from the palace, the beauties sent into the palace by your lord have not been favored by the emperor so far, and one of them has been disposed of by the queen?"

"That's why I called you here today." Dong Yingrui turned around, and said in a low voice with some sternness hidden in his eyes: "If we can't succeed this time, we have to grab the grain transportation around the village no matter what. Don't give the Si family a chance."

Zhang Chenlin understood, and went into the house with Dong Yingrui to discuss the matter in detail.

In Fengwu Palace, Si Ningchi sat on the phoenix couch, looked at the various rewards in front of the palace and blinked, the emperor is really willing!

Su Yongde personally sent Wang Chengxiang out, and when he came back, he stood in front of Si Ningchi, the smile on his face could not be stopped no matter what.

"These are the rewards for you, please keep the rest." Si Ningchi waved his hand casually and ordered.

"Slave, thank you for your reward!" Su Yongde and Suyun quickly knelt down to thank you.

"Your Majesty is so majestic today, you haven't even seen the faces of Concubine De and the others." Su Yongde grinned, leaned over to Si Ningchi and said, "The scriptures that were burnt were copied by Concubine Rong herself. But it was very lively."

"You reminded me." Si Ningchi raised his brows lightly, glanced at the things on the table, and finally pinched a pearl and smiled, "Concubine Rong is a blessed person who copied the scriptures for me. , give this pearl to her."

Su Yongde hurried forward to take it, looked down at the pearl in his hand and secretly smiled.

The empress is deliberately stabbing Concubine Rong in her heart!

Isn't it intentional that the emperor picked out a box of pearls to give to Concubine Rong?

The reward was sent to Yu'an Palace, Concubine Rong almost broke her teeth when she saw that a pearl was presented, and she had to thank the empress for her kindness.

"Bitch! Bitch!" As soon as Su Yongde left, Concubine Rong couldn't bear it anymore, looked at the shining pearl, twisted her face angrily and cursed.

"Your Majesty, calm down." Danju had already closed the palace door first, and her expression was a little ugly.

"The scriptures copied by the palace day and night, in the end she Si Ningchi became a worthy queen!" Concubine Rong couldn't be angry, the things that the emperor rewarded Fengwu Palace were moved away in boxes, which concubine in the harem would have Had this kind of treatment?
This pearl was obviously meant to slap her in the face.

But she can't complain, can't have the slightest grievance, because the empress is a virtuous queen, praying for rain will benefit the people, what kindness is it?
She could only knock her teeth down and swallow inwardly, and she had to praise the queen's virtuous name to the outside world.

Si Ningchi didn't know how Concubine Rong went mad and angry, and she didn't want to know.

The imperial affairs were busy, the emperor didn't come to have dinner today, Si Ningchi felt relaxed, and it started to rain again at night, she was lying on the phoenix couch, listening to the sound of raindrops, she felt a little drowsy.

"Your Majesty, drinking alcohol is harmful to your health. It is better to drink less." The wine cup in hand was empty twice, and the woman lying on the phoenix couch lazily turned over, stretching her body like a seductive cat demon , her face was red and attractive, and her eyes seemed to be stained with a bit of mist.

Holding the jug, Suyun stared blankly for a moment, such a beauty is like a charming demon, even a woman can't help but be moved by her.

Si Ning Chi lay on the phoenix couch, licked his lips with a small tongue and smiled, "It's delicious, give me another sip~"

Su Yun: "..."

Who can resist this soft and charming coquetry!
The jug was bottomed out, Suyun was about to turn around and go out to order to fetch the wine, but when he walked out of the hall and looked up, he saw the young emperor coming from the rain, his eyes and eyebrows were as dark as black and intimidating.
