Today, Shen Ningning wore a pea-green pomegranate dress with thin sleeves, but green ribbons were tied on both sides of the cuffs, making the sleeves bulging, as if there was wind hiding inside.

There are two small buns on the top of the head, and two pink peach blossoms pinned to it.

From a distance, it looks as cute as a fresh little lotus fairy.

Xie Mingxu, who was sitting among the ministers, couldn't help but take a second look.

No wonder the little girl has the prince's prayer beads in her hand, so they knew each other before, what a coincidence.

When Mo Lingwei saw Shen Ningning, he immediately stepped down from the Temple of Heaven, took her by the hand, and led her to Wei Yufu's place in full view of everyone.

"Brother, I'm sorry, I'm a bit late, I overslept this morning." The little guy's pink face was full of embarrassment.

In order to prove that Wei Yufu is not a lucky girl for today's rain-seeking ceremony, Shen Ningning prepared in the fairyland all night.

Her sleeves are full of little dark clouds. Today, a big one must be made for the capital!
Mo Lingwei chuckled: "It's not too late, the auspicious time has just begun."

Wei Yufu was listening, feeling only jealous.

The auspicious time was obviously half a quarter later, and Shen Ningning just arrived, how could it be said that it was just the beginning?

She couldn't help but smile flatteringly: "His Royal Highness, since County Lord Funing is here, let's start."

Mo Lingwei didn't look at her, but nodded to Shen Ningning, and then walked towards the Temple of Heaven.

The national teacher brought several wizards to worship, and began to beat drums and sing incomprehensible ballads.

Taking advantage of this time, Wei Yufu said to Shen Ningning in a low voice: "The untouchables you rescued must have been seriously injured, right? Why don't you go and take good care of them and join in the fun of begging for rain."

Shen Ningning's face was pale and tender, she looked at the front calmly, her voice was waxy, but she was not polite: "You can come, why can't I?"

Wei Yufu couldn't help but glared at her: "Are you worthy of being compared with me? I have been known as a lucky girl since I was a child, and I will pray for rain later, so you have to open your eyes and see clearly, and don't provoke me in the future!"

"Otherwise, your fate will be the same as that of that child named Wu'er. I heard that his ribs are all broken, so what? Even if you sue the emperor, he will not punish me. Who will let me call the wind and rain. "

Shen Ningning pursed her pink lips, and the expression in her eyes became firmer.

"Whether you can attract rain is still unknown."

Wei Yufu sneered, thinking that Shen Ningning was really stupid.

She glanced sideways at the official's stand. The entourage beside his father with his head bowed was Master Gu who was hired with a lot of money.

This time, the name of the lucky girl must belong to her, Wei Yufu!
The fierce drum beats, the rhythm of the rhythm, and the sound of the horn blown by the ivory seem to come from the sound of ancient times, dull and long-lasting.

It was noon, the sun was scorching, and the roasted wizard was sweating profusely.

The fire in the cauldron sizzled, accompanied by the national teacher pouring chicken blood into it, and then the emperor took the lead to bow down to God, and the national teacher shouted: "The ceremony of praying for rain has officially begun, please come to the altar!"

Wei Yufu immediately straightened her back and walked up without looking sideways.

I saw her open her arms, close her eyes, and mutter something.

Shen Ningning tilted her head.

Can she really bring the rain?

At the same time, Master Gu next to Wei Shangshu pinched his fingers and chanted mantras, his voice humming like insects.

Everyone looked intently at Wei Yufu on the Temple of Heaven, only Xie Mingxu who was sitting in the front row looked back indifferently when he heard the movement.

suddenly!

There was a gust of wind.

The emperor's face was full of joy.

Could it be raining?

Feeling the strong wind, Wei Yufu raised her arms happily: "Wind, rain, Fu Nu is here, follow my orders, let it rain!"

Her words made many ministers feel their hearts surge.

"The wind is so strong, it must be raining." Someone whispered.

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the sky eagerly, expecting a dark cloud to float over, or a muffled thunder to be heard.

pity.

Nothing.

The strong wind only blew twice and then gradually disappeared. Not only did it not bring rain, but it also blew up the ashes of the burning charms in the cauldron, almost igniting the robes of the national teacher.

The national teacher continued to pat the sparkling robe with a cold face, and asked angrily, "Fu Nu, where's your rain?"

Wei Yufu's face was pale.

Why didn't the rain come, she didn't know!

She looked at the stands for help, and Wei Shangshu was also urging Master Gu in a low voice.

"Master, hurry up and continue. It's windy but not rainy. How can this be done? The emperor is watching."

Master Gu counted with his fingers, and said with a serious expression: "No, I didn't bring my whisk, so the gods in the sky don't recognize me, so I'll go back and get the whisk."

Wei Shang was dizzy with anger, and his temples were throbbing because of the heat.

"Go!" When did you remember to take the whisk?

If it weren't for the sake of him being a master, Wei Shangshu would definitely make him look good!
However, after Master Gu left, he never came back.

Wei Shangshu's hidden guards chased after him, and came back in a hurry to report: "My lord, it's too bad. Before a stick of incense, this Master Gu escaped from the capital with the gold and silver treasures you gave!"

"What!" Wei Shangshu suddenly stood up, forgetting that there were still hundreds of civil and military officials sitting around him.

His face was livid, and his dizziness became more intense.

Master Gu was actually a liar. Not only was he cheated out of nearly 5000 taels of silver, but he even boasted in front of the emperor, allowing his daughter to go directly to the Temple of Heaven.

It's over, it's over!
Everyone turned their heads to look at Wei Shangshu, Xie Mingxu said coldly: "Master Wei, are you alright?"

Wei Shangshu supported his forehead: "My head hurts."

Two imperial physicians rushed forward, and after feeling the pulse, they diagnosed that Wei Shangshu had suffered from heatstroke, and hurriedly performed acupuncture for him.

Wei Yufu was extremely flustered, with panic in her eyes.

Even her father fainted, the matter of begging for rain is about to fail!

The emperor's face was extremely ugly: "Girl of the Wei family, can you attract the rain?"

"I...I..." Wei Yufu burst into tears.

At this time, Shen Ningning took a step forward and spoke softly, but the voice was heard by everyone.

"She can't be recruited, because the fact that she said she is a lucky girl is completely false!"

All the ministers were in an uproar, and their eyes turned to Shen Ningning.

Wei Yufu looked at the little guy viciously: "Don't talk nonsense! I'm just too tired."

"Hmph, you're not tired in the morning and you're not tired in the evening, but you're tired at this time. If I'm not wrong, you've never managed to attract a rain in front of everyone, right?" Shen Ningning stared at her.

A sentence of forced questions made Wei Yufu cry in anger.

"Shen Ningning, I ask myself that I have never offended you, why do you want to slander me so aggressively? You broke my mood, and of course I can't attract rain even more, you have such a vicious mind!"

Until now, Wei Yufu still wants to push all the faults to Shen Ningning!
The emperor listened impatiently: "Enough!"

Shen Ningning turned to face the emperor's blessing, holding up the hem of the skirt with her small hands, looking cute and smart.

"Uncle Emperor, I can summon rain. If I succeed, please promise me to punish a person."

"Who do you want to punish?" asked the emperor.

Shen Ningning pointed at Wei Yufu: "Her!"
