Chapter 92 Ningning Calls for Rain
The dark clouds must have been accidentally stuck in the fairyland just now.
Unexpectedly, with her gentle pat, the dark clouds did not disperse, but slowly rose.
Shen Ningning raised her head and watched helplessly as the dark cloud the size of her head floated up and finally disappeared into the clouds.
Sudden!
Centered around the place where the dark clouds disappeared, the clouds suddenly became pitch black, like black cotton with a ball of water falling on it.
The thunder rumbled from far to near!
Shen Ningning's watery eyes widened in shock and she looked at the sky.
A villager in the distance shouted: "It's going to rain! Get a basin to catch the water!"
The next second he finished speaking, huge raindrops suddenly fell!
It was like water pouring from the sky, causing Shen Ningning's face to hurt.
The Black Wolf King reacted quickly, grabbed Shen Ningning in his mouth and ran towards the village house.
After going back and standing under the eaves, the little guy couldn't believe his eyes.
"Such heavy rain..." Is it all caused by her little dark cloud? !
Not only were the villagers beaming with joy, but even the wolves were happily rolling around in the rain.
Strange to say, this rain only fell within a radius of fifty miles with Langshan Mountain as the center.
But within just half a stick of incense, it stopped.
But that's enough to please.
Every household has stored rainwater, and every acre of land in Xiangyun Village has been nourished and irrigated.
After the baptism of heavy rain, the loquat tree turned green and lush, with tall branches and leaves.
Until now.
Shen Ningning was convinced that if she pulled out any of the dark clouds in her fairyland, it would cause a heavy rain.
The happy news of the sudden heavy rain reached the emperor's ears that afternoon.
In the imperial study room, several humerus ministers all expressed joy in their voices.
The emperor even expressed emotion: "God bless Cangyun Kingdom, rain has fallen again. It seems that the drought situation will be resolved soon!"
All the ministers were talking about it——
"It's all due to your blessing, Your Majesty."
"When the heavy rain started, it was still sunny in the capital, but looking at the sky near Langshan Mountain, it was actually covered with dark clouds and bursts of thunder. Your Majesty, this must be the appearance of gods."
The emperor nodded happily: "Not bad."
He suddenly remembered, why did the place name Langshan sound familiar?
The little girl named Shen Ningning that Mo Lingwei cared about seemed to live on that mountain.
What a wonderful place with outstanding people and wonderful Feng Shui!
Just when the emperor was about to give him a reward, he heard the imperial censor say: "The minister before entering the palace learned that it was Wei Shangshu's youngest daughter who went to Xitai Village behind Langshan Mountain."
The smile on the emperor's face paused.
He raised his eyebrows: "Wei Aiqing's little daughter? Is she the one who is known as the girl who brings good luck to the rain?"
"It was she. I heard that Miss Wei was in the village at that time. Together with the eldest young master of the Wei family, they opened a tent in Xitai Village to give porridge to the people."
The emperor's expression became a little dark and unpredictable.
His smile was still unclear: "That's a coincidence. I remember that since she was born, the Wei family has called her a lucky girl. But except for the heavy rain the night she was born, every time she prayed for rain after that, she never got her wish."
The imperial censor followed: "Perhaps you are too young and your skills are not strong enough?"
"But the emperor made sacrifices to pray for rain before, and the rain in Langshan this time is inseparable from Miss Wei."
The emperor laughed out loud.
However, the imperial censor was a little unsure of his intentions, and there was still some compliments to the Wei family in his throat, so he did not dare to continue.
The emperor spoke with a faint tone: "I had underestimated this blessed girl before."
"In a few days it will be the prince's birthday. I will declare Miss Wei to the palace. If it rains on the prince's birthday, I will make her the princess."
All the courtiers present were in an uproar.
This is a huge step forward.
Thinking about it again, Wei Shangshu and the favored Empress Li are from the same family. If the Wei family has another princess, it goes without saying that they will be rich in the future.
But……
The emperor smiled again, but his eyes were cold: "But if it doesn't cause rain, then let's do it."
The consequences are self-evident.
There was a cold feeling behind the doctor's back, and he quickly lowered his head.
It is said that being with a king is like being with a tiger, and this is true!
A few words from the emperor can make a family richer and more prosperous, or it can make them fall into the mud completely.
When the news reached the Wei family, Miss Wei was enjoying a luxurious life.
Of course she didn't go out in such hot weather.
It's just that her father Wei Shangshu found a few little girls about her age, wearing her clothes, veils and hoods to protect her from the sun, to appear everywhere on her behalf.
As soon as they heard it was going to rain, a stand-in would be sent immediately.
In this way, you can always get it right.
However, Lord Wei was happy when he heard that the emperor allowed his daughter to attend the prince's birthday.
But before I was happy for too long, I started to worry about the rain again.
You can pretend normally, but what should you do if it really rains on the prince's birthday?
"Dad, I just heard from the housekeeper that I can go to His Royal Highness the Prince's birthday party?" Wei Yufu, who was only four and a half years old, walked into the study.
Although he is young, he is the most favored one among the twelve children of Wei Shangshu.
She was dressed in silk, with a gold and jade bracelet around her neck, gold bracelets on both wrists, and dazzling ornaments on her head.
Wei Yufu sounded a little proud: "I knew it, how could you not invite me to His Highness the Crown Prince's birthday?"
"Dad, I want to buy new clothes. You buy all the snow silk satin in the capital. On His Highness's birthday, I want to wear the most beautiful dress."
Minister Wei came back to his senses: "No! Fuer, not only can you not go, you are also refusing to enter the palace despite being ill."
Wei Yufu immediately frowned and expressed dissatisfaction in a spoiled manner: "Why? The emperor specially invited me, which is a blessing that others can't even ask for."
"The emperor wants to invite a woman who can really call the wind and rain, can you do it?"
Hearing this, Wei Yufu's face flashed with embarrassment, and she decisively made a scene: "That's what Daddy has to consider, not me!"
"I just want to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and my aunt also said that when I am eight years old, she will let me enter the palace to be a female official for the Crown Prince. Are you all lying to me?"
She cried as she said this.
Minister Wei immediately walked over and hugged her distressedly.
"My dear daughter, Dad is doing this to help you get closer to the Crown Prince!"
"Dad, you are lying. How can you get closer if you don't go to the birthday party?"
"You don't understand this." Minister Wei whispered a few words to his daughter.
Wei Yufu didn't understand, but she stopped crying: "But... is it really possible?"
Wei Shangshu smiled in a very secretive way: "Let Dad arrange it."
...
Mo Lingwei has been liking the white porcelain round fish tank in the yard more and more these days.
Every time Chen Shaobei came to report on affairs, six or seven times out of ten, he would see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince holding fish food and standing leisurely beside the porcelain tank.
This day was no exception.
"It seems that His Royal Highness's injury has improved a lot." Chen Shaobei bowed and greeted, smiling.
The sun was shining, but Mo Lingwei seemed to have a breeze all over him.
His clothes were neat, his ponytail was tied high, and his youthful spirit was a bit noble.
Mo Lingwei turned his head and looked at him and said, "This white porcelain jar you bought was quite good."
Chen Shaobei smiled, "Didn't His Highness blame me for buying too much at that time?"
Mo Lingwei raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "What are you doing here?"
Chen Shaobei asked, "Your Highness also invited Miss Shen to the banquet. Where is her seat?"
"Next to me." The young man answered decisively.
