I am the faint king [system]

Chapter 217: Jing Ke Assassinates Qin? ?

Suddenly it rained heavily in the capital, and the heavy rain poured down like a basin of water.But this rain is very strange. It doesn't cover the ground evenly, but it only rains heavily in a few fixed places, and it only rains lightly in other places. There is a big difference.

The weather was taken out to make a fuss in an instant.The rumors are well-founded, saying that His Majesty's construction of the Jianghang Grand Canal has been warned by the heavens, and that the sky shows that the Grand Canal is a sign of the collapse of the country.

But the rumor was quickly spread to the other side, the reason was that the heavy rain only poured on the homes of certain adults.

In the entire capital, no one's house leaked water, but only a few adults leaked water, causing the houses of those adults to be flooded by rain, and these people had to move their families to nearby inns and restaurants to live temporarily.

The phenomenon of rain immediately broke the gossip in the capital, and those adults who were unfortunately submerged by the rain included Taishi Sun and Taifu Qin, as well as several other old cabinet ministers.

The rain invaded their home without hesitation and flooded the whole house, but it didn't flood the next door, and soon there were new rumors.

I heard that the rain was specially placed in the homes of some adults who opposed the construction of the Grand Canal, and it was a warning to these adults.

People in the capital began to spread rumors: "I heard from Mr. Liao's servant who lives next door to Taishi Sun that the rain was so strange that it flooded Taishi Sun's house, but it didn't exceed their Liao's house. You are not surprised."

"Could it be that the gods showed up and wanted to warn them."

"Shouldn't His Majesty be the one who should be warned!"

"But I heard that these adults are all ministers of the imperial court, and they have tried their best to manage the imperial government since the first emperor."

"I've heard that too, but why does the rain fall on their house?"

"It's just a coincidence. The adults who happened to be flooded by the rain were going to resign a while ago! Your Majesty agreed. Now they just happen to stay at home."

"It seems that God can't stand it anymore, seeing how the adults are slack."

"The grown-ups are the pillars of the Dali Dynasty. How can they just say they don't do it?"

"It's not His Majesty's fault."

"Well, why didn't the rain flood our place and the palace? Does it mean that Your Majesty is right?"

"It is right to build the Grand Canal."

"Shut up, don't you guys have any brains? Look at how Chen Guo destroyed the country because of the Jianghang Grand Canal. This Jianghang Grand Canal was started by Chen Guoqi!"

"The Grand Canal is a disaster for the country and the people! I am waiting for the common people to suffer."

"But aren't we doing well? Life is much better recently. In the past, I could only eat meat a few times. Now it's not a meal every three days, and it doesn't cost a lot of money. Yesterday I exchanged ten catties of polished rice from the imperial court. What! That taste is delicious."

As soon as this remark came out, more than a dozen ordinary people watching the excitement fell silent. They looked at each other and couldn't help but say a few words to each other.

"Your family just gave birth to a girl for you, congratulations."

"Where is it, come to my house for a hundred-day wine when you are free!"

"I must go, I must go, and then I will cut a few pieces of meat and go there."

"Farewell, my house is almost covered with a yard of meat."

"Hahaha, it's not like life is getting better."

The gossip and rumors in the capital were suddenly attracted by the affairs of Grand Master Sun and Taifu Qin.Moreover, the ancients believed in celestial phenomena, that there are unpredictable things in the sky, and that people have misfortunes and blessings.

Now it is vividly displayed in front of everyone.

Sun Taishi, Qin Taifu and other adults are also depressed. They are not in the mood to make a fuss now, and the family has already had a fuss. Usually, the sons and daughters of the family are all brought up with gold spoons. There was something wrong in the inn, and they said that the food was not good.

The trouble caused several adults to stay at home leisurely, with endless headaches. For them, this was a headache more than dealing with government affairs.So they were distracted to take care of the family affairs.

Chu Yue's opposition to the construction of the Grand Canal was a beat slower.

Just in the past few days, Chu Yue's system prompts kept ringing.

Ding——The three rainfalls from you, the host, have met the nectar for a long time and moistened the earth, so that the people in the arid area have a way to live.Isn't that great?

Ding——this time it rained for three days and three nights. The people in the arid area called it an auspicious omen, and the rainbow appeared in the Houjiang-Hangzhou Grand Canal area even on cloudy days for three days, which also slightly changed the thinking of some superstitious ancients.

Ding——Congratulations to the host for completing 95% of the tasks.

"That means I'm about to complete the task, wouldn't it be great."

Ding—a special reminder to the host that you may have a bloody disaster recently.

Chu Yue:? ? ? ? ?

Ding——When there are too many foolish emperors, you can beat a bunch of ministers because they are still reasonable, rules, and ethics.

Ding—but some people are different. They only look at the results and not the development. You may be a bit dangerous as the host.

"Hey, hey, what's the matter with being a little dangerous?"

"Could it be Jing Ke's plot to assassinate the King of Qin? No way, I'm not a tyrant, so I don't need to do this!"

Chu Yue suddenly felt her hair go numb, and an inexplicable chill filled her whole body, making her restless.

She touched the back of her head and said, "System, what if I die before completing the task?"

Ding - so! ! !Please host take good care of yourself, it's just one step away, just one step away.

The system suddenly became excited, as if afraid of something happening.

Chu Yue was so frightened that she couldn't help shouting: "Damn it, don't scare me, I almost set the flag."

Ding—….Host, think about what you just said.

"flag..."

Chu Yue reacted suddenly, she covered her mouth instantly.

After letting go, she hurriedly turned to the side to lose her temper: bah bah bah bah bah bah.

"Oh, 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸 呸.

Eunuch Zheng who was poohed all over:......

"What's the matter with you, Your Majesty?"

Chu Yue took a sip from the teacup on the Yuqian table, she settled down and said, "It's all right. It's all right."

Eunuch Zheng didn't believe that His Majesty was fine. Recently, she didn't eat as much as before, and she didn't sleep like before, and the number of times he had to urge her to go to the morning court and the imperial study had decreased.

Eunuch Zheng felt that it must be the construction of the Grand Canal, which disturbed His Majesty's peace and made His Majesty feel uncomfortable, but she insisted on building the Grand Canal and would rather wrong herself.

He said: "Your Majesty, do you have to build the Grand Canal?"

As soon as these words came out, Chu Yue's eyes suddenly turned a little cold, she turned to look at the old slave in front of her carefully, now she does not allow anyone around her to question her behavior, or advise her.

Otherwise, don't blame her for being rude.

Chu Yue said: "Eunuch Zheng and they all think that I am wrong?"

Eunuch Zheng bowed his head immediately, and said, "Your Majesty, this old slave is only on your side. It is just as the saying goes that the emperor humiliates his ministers to death, which is natural. The old slave is only worried about your majesty's health."

Only then did Chu Yue soften her face, and she waved him out, now she just wanted to be alone, so that other people would not obstruct her eyes.

But at this moment, Jianghang Grand Canal already has a batch of brand new tools in hand, and Liao Shangshu personally escorted them to the scene and handed them over to Zhao Fengyun, Wu Yunkai and Xue Bao.

The three treacherous ministers are capable ministers. Xue Bao used his own money to wholesale the tools and start mass production, while Wu Yunkai contacted blacksmiths and recruited manpower.

The last one is Zhao Fengyun, he is busy collecting manpower now, there are only 13 people, which is far from enough, he still needs 10 people to do business in front of His Majesty.

When everyone was working together, the cloudy and clear sky suddenly cleared away the dark clouds and the sunlight slanted to the nearby river, gradually forming beautiful colorful rainbows.

Some people counted it specially and shouted: "It's seven rainbows, seven rainbows!!!"

Especially those who were captured were shocked to see a colorful long rainbow in such a place, and it was a seven-colored rainbow.

Seeing this, Xue Bao's eyes flashed a gleam, and he shouted at the hands he bought with money: "Look, everyone, the weather is cloudy and comfortable these days, neither dry nor dry, just right."

"Now there are seven gorgeous rainbows, which are comparable to the beauty of the seven fairies entering the mortal world and the rain and dew. This is the auspiciousness from heaven."

"As long as you listen to your majesty and my official, as long as the [-]-mile river course in front of the Jianghang Grand Canal is repaired, my palace will ask your majesty to let those who have committed slavery, and those who have committed crimes, make atonement and return to good citizenship. how?"

As soon as this remark came out, some prisoners who committed minor incidents immediately echoed. They seemed to have seen a new hope, and they were not so disgusted with the construction of the Jianghang Grand Canal, but they were more active.

Zhao Fengyun looked at these prisoners with disdain, and said, "Why did you give them an empty promise? A person like you is much more ruthless than me."

Xue Bao said: "No, no, this is His Majesty's intention, and he also specially gave me an imperial edict."

"What, imperial decree?!" Zhao Fengyun immediately revealed an expression of envy and hatred.

His majesty's imperial decree, how can a cat or a dog can accept it, and this Xue Bao is so valued by his majesty, it seems that he will work harder to recruit people.

But Wu Yunkai just watched the two fight, he silently calculated in his heart, as long as he makes good use of his connections, wins people over, and then cooperates with Zhao Fengyun, once the construction of the Grand Canal exceeds a hundred miles, then he can be the first to go. Take credit.

For him, the status of the Duke of the Kingdom is equivalent to reaching the sky in one step, making him completely related to the emperor's relatives. After that, his official career and his children and grandchildren will be prosperous and rich for several lifetimes.

The three have their own goals, but there is only one goal of action.

Moreover, the tools brought by Liao Shangshu were quickly obtained in batches, and at the same time increased the income of many blacksmiths. In addition, Xue Bao specially posted paid notices with official seals on them, which made many blacksmiths end up at the end of the road. People who couldn't eat jumped to try it.

Soon, private rumors about the Jianghang Grand Canal secretly spread to the ears of people who were looking for other channels.

That is, Zhao Fengyun and others needed a lot of saltpeter. This person who owned this thing secretly contacted Zhao Fengyun, and then contacted Xue Bao.

In the following ten days, the Jianghang Grand Canal was full of rumbling sounds like drums, and several hills were opened up one by one in an instant. It can be said to be the most miraculous scene in history, because the ancients did not know what xx is It can be exploded, so they thought it was Thor who opened the way for the Jianghang Grand Canal, and it was twenty miles away overnight.

And under Xue Bao's intentional exaggeration, a magical atmosphere began to emerge.

That is to build the Grand Canal, you can walk with the sky, you can see seven rainbows in the morning, and you can see Lei Kaihe Road at night.

In fact, opening the river road at night is afraid of people being bombed, and it is humid at night. The soil of the mountains near the river will be softer than in the daytime, so it is easy to explode. That's why there are all kinds of strange legends about boundless mana, magical transformation, and three heads and six arms.
