I'm so hard

Chapter 228
"Today, I will let Xicheng Mansion rain."

If this sentence was not said by Zhao Yan, everyone would think that the person who said this sentence was a big fool.

Even what Zhao Yan said, the common people didn't really believe it.

If you can make it rain all over the world, it is not an emperor, but a god.

During this period of time, Zhao Yan's plan was artificial rainfall.

The first condition for artificial rainfall is that there must be rain clouds in the sky. If there are no rain clouds, no matter what Zhao Yan does, it will be useless.

Zhao Yan waited for a long time, and finally found that the sky had changed when watching the stars last night, and there was a possibility of rain today.

And just half an hour ago, although the sun was still looming, there was a cool wind blowing faintly, and the clouds in the sky became denser. Although this was not a sign of rain, it was a sign of condensed rain clouds in the sky. sign.

As long as there are rain clouds in the sky, Zhao Yan may make it rain.

The squatting tiger cannon and the thin-skinned shells carrying salt powder are prepared for artificial rainfall.

In fact, Zhao Yan was only [-]% sure, but he still decided to give it a try.

Because as long as it rains today, the drought in Xicheng will have nothing to do with the New Deal.

Of course, this is just one of them.

In this era, if Zhao Yan can make rain fall in Xicheng, which has been drought for a long time, it will definitely arouse the personality worship of Zhao Yan in the whole Zhou Dynasty, and the so-called Son of Destiny is nothing more than that.

Although doing this, Zhao Yan felt a little shameless, but it would make it easier for him, the emperor, to do things, and the difficulty of implementing the New Deal would be instantly reduced.

With so many benefits, Zhao Yan is naturally willing to try.

If it failed, Zhao Yan would shift the responsibility to Feng Yizhen, and tell the people that it was Feng Yizhen's divination method.

But now, the real Feng Yi has been captured by Zhao Yan's guards, and his fate is to live alone in the dungeon.

If such a magic stick wants to harm someone, it will cause great damage, so Zhao Yan directly let him accompany him in prison.

Zhao Yan said in a loud voice: "Henry Zhang, immediately find the highest place in Xicheng Mansion and set up a squatting tiger cannon."

"The minister takes orders!" Henry Zhang cupped his hands.

The south side of Xicheng Mansion is built on the back of the mountain, and the top of the mountain, which is nearly 400 meters high on the southernmost side, is the highest place in the whole city.

An hour later, Henry Zhang appeared on the top of a high mountain with a squatting tiger cannon.

Zhao Yan, Yang Hong, and Bai Lin were sitting in a gazebo halfway up the mountain.

At this moment, the south of the city was crowded with people.

Everyone wanted to see how His Majesty prayed for rain today.

Hong Chengan was also squeezed into the crowd. To his surprise, Zhao Yan not only did not arrest any Hong Yajun, but also did not propose any punishment measures for him, the chief culprit.

The more this happened, the more uncomfortable Hong Chengan felt. He suddenly felt that he might have made a mistake in opposing the New Deal.

He stood among the crowd, looking up at the sky, feeling extremely anxious, not only looking forward to the heavy rain, but also looking forward to the rain not falling as long as the New Deal continues.

At this time, the sky of Xicheng Mansion became clear again.

The sun emerged from the clouds, and the light was so bright that it didn't seem like a precursor to rain at all.

Zhao Yan was also a little apprehensive.

After sitting quietly for a while, he gestured to Henry Zhang.

This gesture means that you can shoot into the sky!

At present, there are still 57 shells left, and Zhao Yan let Henry Zhang release all of them to the sky continuously.

In fact, the principle of artificial rainfall is very simple.When the shell rushes into the air, it will carry a lot of heat. When it rushes to the cloud, it will cause the rain cloud to form water particles, which will then turn into rain.The salt acts as a catalyst, absorbing a large amount of wet clouds and forming rainfall.

Although, according to the current height that the shells can reach is limited, it will still have some impact on the clouds above.

After Henry Zhang received the order, he immediately turned the muzzle towards the mountains ahead, and then the muzzle towards the sky.

“Fire!” Henry Zhang shouted.

boom!
The first shell blasted out, and then exploded suddenly in the sky.

It was deafening, and the sound spread throughout Xicheng Mansion.

After about ten breaths, another explosion sounded.

Immediately afterwards, there was an explosion sound every ten breaths.

boom!boom!boom!
The 57 shells exploded in the sky like fireworks, filling the surrounding sky with white-gray dust.

Zhao Yan has been observing the sky, if the sun is getting better and better, then he will be embarrassed.

When the No.30 five shells exploded, the sky was still clear.

But after that, the sky slowly became cloudy.

Then the white clouds gradually turned gray, and the gray clouds slowly turned into lead clouds.

If it weren't for Bai Lin and Yang Hong who were on the side, Zhao Yan would have jumped up with excitement, and he couldn't even tell if his rough rain technique had worked, or it just happened to be raining.

See the sky ahead become cloudy.

Bai Lin and Yang Hong opened their mouths, their eyeballs were about to fall out.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, you...you are truly a god!" Bai Lin couldn't help but praise.

Yang Hong was even more surprised and said: "Your Majesty, if you have such abilities, our Great Zhou will definitely be able to enjoy good weather every year!"

Zhao Yan was overjoyed in his heart, but the expression on his face was still flat. He said modestly: "This trick of mine sometimes won't work."

And the people below were even more surprised and didn't know what to say.

At this moment, they feel that Zhao Yan is a saint, a god, and the incarnation of heaven.

Looking at the lead-black clouds in the sky, Hong Chengan stammered and said, "It turns out...it turns out that Feng Yiren's last hexagram was correct. The New Deal cannot be abolished, and God's will can be violated. Your Majesty can violate God's will, because He is my god!"

After the artillery stopped for a quarter of an hour, there was another "bang" sound suddenly.

But this time, it was thunder.

After about a few breaths of thunder, bean-sized raindrops began to fall, densely packed and getting bigger and bigger.

"It's raining, it's finally raining!" The people couldn't help but jumped up in the rain, cheering happily.

They waited for half a year for the rain, and finally it came.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but let out a long breath, and murmured in his heart: The bullshit that has been boasted has finally come true. No matter how many times you play, at least you can appease the hearts of the people!
God still took great care of Zhao Yan. The heavy rain poured down for half an hour before turning into light rain.

Bai Lin turned to Zhao Yan and asked, "Your Majesty, what should Hong Yajun and their leader Hong Cheng'an do?"

Zhao Yan thought for a while, and said: "Hong Cheng'an rebelled, and the nine clans should be exterminated according to the law, but this person is not bad, but he is a little ignorant, so he should be put in the prison first. If he knows his mistake, he does not need to be sentenced to death. As for the others People, you can figure it out!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Bai Lin said respectfully.

If Zhao Yan hadn't made this world-shattering move today, Bai Lin would definitely recommend that Hong Cheng should be sentenced to punish the nine clans, after all, it is a serious crime of rebellion.

But now, he felt that no matter what Zhao Yan said was the word of God, he could not refute it.
