"Today, I will let it rain in Xichengfu."

If Zhao Yan hadn't said this sentence, everyone would think that the person who said this sentence was a big fool.

Even what Zhao Yan said, the people did not believe it very much.

If it can make the world rain, it is not the emperor, but the god.

During this period, the plan Zhao Yan prepared was artificial rainfall.

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

Zhao Yan waited for a long time, and finally found that the astronomy had changed when he was watching the astrological sign last night, and there was a possibility of raining today.

Just half an hour ago, although the sun was still looming, a cool breeze blew by and the clouds in the sky became dense. Although this was not a sign of rain, it was a sign of rain clouds condensed in the sky.

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

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

In fact, Zhao Yan was only 50% sure, but he decided to try it.

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

Of course, this is just one of them.

In this era, if Zhao Yan could make it rain in Xicheng, which had been drought for a long time, it would inevitably arouse the entire Great Zhou Dynasty's personality cult to Zhao Yan. The so-called son of destiny is nothing more than this.

Although Zhao Yan felt a little shameless in doing this, it could make it easier for him as an emperor to do things, and the difficulty of implementing the new policy will be reduced instantly.

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

If it fails, Zhao Yan will shift the responsibility to Zhenren Feng and tell the people that it is the method of Zhenren Feng for divination.

Now, Feng Yizhen has been captured by the guards beside Zhao Yan, and his fate is to live alone in the prison.

If such a charlatan wants to harm others, it will cause great damage, so Zhao Yan directly let him be with the prison.

Zhao Yan said loudly: "Zhang Xuan, immediately find the highest place in Xicheng Mansion and set up a squatted tiger cannon."

"I accept the order!" Zhang Xuan bowed.

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

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

Zhao Yan, Yang Hong and Bai Lin sat in the pavilion halfway up the mountain.

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

Everyone wants to see how His Majesty is asking for rain today.

Hong Chengan was also crowded in the crowd. What surprised him was that not only did Zhao Yan not arrest any Hong Yajun, he did not propose any punitive measures to him, the culprit.

The more this happens, the more uncomfortable Hong Chengan feels. He suddenly feels that he may have done something wrong with opposing the new policy.

He stood among the crowd, looking up at the sky, feeling extremely nervous, looking forward to heavy rain falling from the sky, and expecting that as long as the new policy continues to stop, the rain will not fall.

At this time, the sky in Xichengfu became clear again.

The sun emerged from the clouds, and the light was very strong, and it didn't seem like a sign of rain at all.

Zhao Yan was a little nervous.

After sitting quietly for a while, he made a gesture to Zhang Xuan.

This gesture means that you can fire in the sky!

At present, there are still fifty-seven shells left, and Zhao Yan asked Zhang Xuan to release them all into the sky in a continuous manner.

In fact, the principle of artificial rainfall is very simple. When the shells rush into the air, they will carry a lot of heat. When they rush to the clouds, the rain clouds will form water particles and then turn into rain. The salt is like a catalyst, which will absorb a large amount of wet clouds and form rainfall.

Although the height that can be reached by the shells is limited at present, it will still have some impact on the clouds above.

After receiving the order, Zhang Xuan immediately turned the muzzle toward the mountains in front, and then the muzzle faced the sky.

"Fire the cannon!" Zhang Xuan shouted.

boom!

The first shell was bombed out and then suddenly exploded in the sky.

It was deafening, and the sound spread throughout Xichengfu.

About ten breaths later, another explosion sounded.

Immediately afterwards, an explosion sounded every ten breaths.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Fifty-seven shells exploded in the sky like fireworks, making the surrounding sky full of white and gray dust.

Zhao Yan has been observing the astronomical phenomena all the time. If the sun gets better and better, then he will be embarrassed.

When the 35th shell exploded, the sky was still clear.

But after that, the sky slowly became gloomy.

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, Zhao Yan would have jumped up in excitement, and he wouldn't even tell whether it was his rough rainfall technique that worked, or it happened to be raining.

I saw the sky ahead becoming cloudy.

Bai Lin and Yang Hong opened their mouths, their eyes were about to fall off.

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

Yang Hong said in surprise: "Your Majesty, if you have such skills, our Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely be able to have good weather every year!"

Zhao Yan was so happy in his heart, but his expression was still dull. He said modestly: "My move will sometimes fail."

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

At this moment, they felt that Zhao Yan was the incarnation of a saint, a god, and a god.

Hong Chengan looked at the lead-black clouds in the sky and said with a stuttering: "It turns out... it turns out that Feng Yizhenren's last hexagram is correct. The new policy cannot be abolished, and the will of heaven can also be violated. Your Majesty can go against the will of heaven, because he is the heaven of my Great Zhou!"

After the cannon stopped for a quarter of an hour, a "boom" suddenly came again.

But this time, it was thunder.

After about a few breaths of thunder, the rain particles as big as beans began to fall, and the momentum became denser and bigger.

"It's raining, it's finally raining!" The people couldn't help but jump up in the rain, and everyone cheered and cheered.

They waited for the rain for half a year and finally arrived.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but breathe a long sigh and murmured in his heart: The ox that has been blown by has finally come true. No matter how much you try, it can at least calm the hearts of the people!

God still took great care of Zhao Yan. The heavy rain fell, and it took half an hour before it turned into a light rain.

Bai Lin asked Zhao Yan: "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 destroyed according to the law, but this person is not bad, he is just a little ignorant. He should be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison first. If he knows that he is wrong, he doesn't have to be sentenced to death. As for others, you can do it!"

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

If Zhao Yan did not have this amazing move today, Bai Lin would definitely recommend that Hong Cheng'an be sentenced to the death of the nine clans, after all, it was a serious crime of rebellion.
Chapter completed!
