"Sacrifice to heaven? Your Majesty will sacrifice to heaven tomorrow? Are you sure your information is correct?" Lan Jiuqing asked in surprise.
No wonder Lan Jiuqing had such a big reaction. In fact, the emperor's move was so unreasonable. It had snowed for so many days, and I didn't see the emperor talking about offering sacrifices to the sky. Speaking of offering sacrifices to the sky at this time, it was obvious no matter how you looked at it.
It's so weird that even Lan Jiuqing wouldn't believe it if there was nothing fishy about it.
Sacrifice to the sky is not a trivial matter. The emperor will never be too full and have nothing to do. It is a big thing to say that he wants to sacrifice to the sky. If the emperor wants to sacrifice to the sky, he must prepare at least three to five days in advance. How could it be possible today?
He said that he would sacrifice to heaven tomorrow.
The emperor cannot act randomly, and if the emperor dares to act like this, he must have a plan.
"The news from Qin Tian Jian should be correct. The emperor went to the old man from Qin Tian Jian and asked when the snow would stop. Then he lost his temper and asked Qin Tian Jian to prepare to say that he would sacrifice to heaven.
." Su Wenqing spread his hands helplessly.
They are the emperor, and the emperor wants to offer sacrifices to heaven, what can they do?
"Did someone say something in front of the emperor? Otherwise, why would the emperor think about offering sacrifices to heaven? Or maybe the emperor is suspicious of Qin Tianjian?" Lan Jiuqing had a very bad feeling, as if something had escaped him.
The control is average.
Sacrifice to heaven, this is no small matter.
"Probably not. The old man at Qintian Prison didn't say anything. Except for the good words he said when the emperor came to power, he has always sought no merit but no fault in these years. The emperor looked at what happened back then.
I won't doubt him.
As for the others, we can’t find out. The people we buried around the emperor have lost a lot some time ago. In addition, the emperor has been extremely cautious during this period, so a lot of information can’t be found out.”
Because Uncle Nine Emperors was imprisoned, some of the spies in the palace also betrayed them. In addition, the emperor purged them once, so their manpower in the palace was reduced a lot, making many things inconvenient.
If there is no abnormality, how could the emperor offer sacrifices to the sky? Lan Jiuqing could not understand: "No one has come to say so. According to the emperor's principles of behavior, he will never say such words as offering sacrifices to the sky. The emperor cherishes his feathers very much. He doesn't."
He will rashly order to sacrifice to heaven, but if his sacrifice to heaven has no effect at all, or is counterproductive, the emperor will be infamy."
"It's been snowing for so many days, so it's time to stop. The Emperor shouldn't make any mistakes in offering sacrifices to the sky at this time." Su Wenqing frowned. The Emperor's move was so unexpected that they couldn't guess it at all.
"It's been snowing for fifteen days. It should have stopped a long time ago, but it just doesn't stop. Who knows what God thinks." Lan Jiuqing never believed in such uncertain things, and the emperor would definitely not do such a thing.
Something adventurous.
This snow can last for fifteen days, and it can also last for twenty-five days. Before the matter is concluded, it is extremely risky to do anything to beg for the snow to stop.
Although the snowstorm is serious, the situation is now under control and all the food for disaster relief has been received. There is no need for the emperor to offer sacrifices to heaven at this time.
The emperor stopped offering sacrifices to the sky in the morning and stopped in the evening. There must be a reason why he suddenly decided to offer sacrifices to the sky tomorrow. But he couldn't think of this reason. Did the emperor have the confidence to think that the snow would stop in the next few days?
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be the case. Qin Tianjian's statement was made by him. When the emperor heard Qin Tianjian's words, he should have been angry and wavering, instead of offering sacrifices to heaven with great fanfare.
Under the mask, Lan Jiuqing's eyes became deeper and deeper. Su Wenqing knew that Lan Jiuqing was deep in thought. Su Wenqing did not dare to come forward to disturb him, and sat quietly aside, waiting for Lan Jiuqing to think of a result.
There is only one reason why the emperor suddenly offered sacrifices to the sky. He... can be sure that the snow will stop in the near future!
Lan Jiuqing suddenly stood up and said to Su Wenqing seriously: "Wenqing, please stop delivering food to the disaster area. All disaster relief activities have been stopped."
"What happened?" Su Wenqing was startled by Jiu Qing's move, and his eyes tightened unconsciously.
A sharp light flashed in Lan Jiuqing's eyes, the corners of his lips slightly raised under the mask, and he said sarcastically: "If my guess is correct, a so-called miracle should appear tomorrow." Even if it doesn't stop snowing, it will happen.
An amazing miracle, in this way...it makes sense for the emperor to offer sacrifices to the genius.
"A miracle? What do you mean the emperor will do to appease the people?" Su Wenqing understood it as soon as he thought about it.
Since ancient times, people who sit on the throne like to say that they are the real dragon emperor and that they are the destiny of destiny. In order to make people believe that they are the destiny of destiny, they will try their best to create some so-called miracles to make the people believe in them.
, surrender to him.
At this time when people's hearts are wavering, if a miracle occurs, the emperor will be completely cleared.
Lan Jiuqing nodded and said: "It will definitely happen. Only in this way can we appease the people and minimize the negative impact of the snow disaster. Is there anything in the world that is more convincing than a divine metaphor?"
"Then our previous efforts were not all in vain?" Su Wenqing was hit hard, and some could not accept such a result. They spent so much manpower and powerlessness, and saw that the results came out, but they turned into a bubble.
If a miracle really happens tomorrow, all the disaster relief actions they have done will be covered up by the emperor's miracle, and they will all become subordinate to the emperor's miracle.
Under the light of God, how could their threatening deeds shine so brightly?
"Although it won't be all in vain, it's almost the same. Stopping now can minimize the loss." Lan Jiuqing turned his back and sighed.
The emperor's move was well timed. If the heavy snow stopped in these two days, it would be said that the emperor's sincerity moved God and made God stop snowing.
This timing, this gesture, what a beautiful counterattack.
"I'm really unwilling." Su Wenqing said sullenly: "We put in people to help, but in the end, the emperor was left to take advantage of us."
"There is nothing to be unwilling to do. In the end, it is the people who benefit. This is enough. Our move saved the lives of many innocent people." Lan Jiuqing didn't mind the loss. He provided some food and saved several lives.
One hundred thousand lives, this deal is worth it.
"I can only think like this. Thinking like this makes me feel better." Su Wenqing also put away his gloominess and cheered up.
Alas, after working for more than half a month, the harvest was about to be harvested, but the emperor picked the peaches. The emperor really went too far.
Su Wenqing gritted his teeth, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he suggested in a very bad way: "Jiu Qing, do you think we should do something to ruin the emperor's miracle and make the emperor's sacrifice to heaven tomorrow become a joke?"
"I'm afraid it's too late. The sacrifice to the sky is tomorrow, and we don't know what miracle the emperor has prepared. If the snow stops when the emperor sacrifices to the sky tomorrow, then the more we do, the more help we can give to the emperor.
If there are more, then the emperor's prestige will reach an unprecedented height, and Dongling will be more united."
Can man defeat God? Well, unless you know what God is going to do, you will be caught off guard by God.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Su Wenqing opened his mouth. If this is really the case, it would be amazing.
"It's hard to say. I'll go into the palace to have a look. You can take care of the other matters. Don't waste that batch of food."
"..."
Lan Jiuqing left these words and walked towards the secret room. He was so fast that Su Wenqing could not stop him. Su Wenqing could only take back what he wanted to say.
"Forget it, I'll make my own decision. Anyway, you're not in the mood to care about these trivial matters and don't waste the food, right? Okay, I will make the best use of this batch of food. When the east is not bright, the west is bright. There are more than just nine states in the continent.
Dongling is a country, but I don’t believe that I can’t pretend to be a master even if I have enough food.”
Su Wenqing spread out a large map. This map included all nine cities in the Four Kingdoms. The red marks on it were all places where the snowstorm was more serious. Su Wenqing's eyes fell on the reddest areas, and he decided with a single click of his finger.
Already.
"Nanling and Beiling, right? Wait, I'll go there right now."
Su Wenqing directly marked it. If there was a miracle tomorrow, he would ask his caravan to change its route overnight and use sleds to transport the remaining grain and supplies to Beiling and Nanling. They would not use the sleds.
I am worried that I will not be able to walk in the snow.
It doesn't matter if it stops snowing. Places with severe snow disasters are completely covered by heavy snow. Even if it doesn't stop snowing for ten days and a half, the snow will not melt, and the ice on the river will not be that big.
It will break soon. The emperor wants to transfer grain from the south to the north, which is also a difficulty.
Besides, even if you ask, no food can be grown in a short period of time, and even the roots of the trees may not be eaten. At this time, whoever has food in hand will be the boss.
The more he thought about it, the more Su Wenqing felt at ease. No wonder Jiu Qing was worried but did not panic. Even if their previous efforts were in vain if they had food in hand, they would still be able to benefit later.
The emperor will throw them away after he has benefited them, right? Then don't blame them for being rude and turning around to support other countries. Forget it about Xiling. He will not compete with Xiling Tianyu for credit. Beiling and Nanling were also seriously affected. These two
The place is definitely profitable.
In particular, Beiling is short of supplies all year round, and this heavy snowfall has made it even worse for them. Fortunately, most of the people in Beiling are tough, and some are very good. Not many people died in this snowstorm. When the food is delivered, Beiling's
Your energy will be restored soon.
Since he couldn't be a good person in Dongling, he went to Nanling and Beiling. After all, he had raised this batch of grain, which would be enough for next year. There was no need to let the grain rot in his hands.
Well, what should I exchange these grains for? Or use them to win over some Beiling tribe chiefs?
Su Wenqing planned carefully, trying to minimize the impact of the emperor's sacrifice to heaven and obtain the maximum benefit from the grain in hand.
Of course, it would be best if tomorrow's sacrifice to heaven has no effect. They are just doing this to prepare for a rainy day and be prepared.
Lan Jiuqing seemed to have bad luck today. He was about to reach the palace, but someone blocked his way...
