Chapter 430 Stability

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, "Oh my god! Why is there such a huge black shadow in the sky? What is it?"

Everyone looked up at the sky, only to see that the dazzling sun had been half-obscured by a black shadow of unknown origin at some point.

In the sky, the sun's light gradually dimmed, and the originally dazzling sun disk seemed as if someone had taken a big bite out of it.

People suddenly quieted down.

The dogs stopped barking and the birds lay dormant quietly, as if they also sensed the unusual atmosphere.

The sky seemed to be covered with a layer of black gauze, and the light became soft and hazy.

What was even more terrifying was that the shadow grew bigger and bigger, while the sun became smaller and smaller, as if a demon was slowly descending upon the earth.

"Oh no! This is a solar eclipse. God is angry."

In the silence, someone shouted in fear. With his voice, the last ray of light disappeared, and the whole world fell into complete darkness.

"The sun is being eclipsed by the heavenly dog? A disaster is coming! God is going to punish us." An old voice shouted with tears in his eyes.

Suddenly, cries were heard from the parade.

"I can't see anything, woooooo...

"I want to go home, woo woo woo..."

An autumn breeze blew by, bringing with it a chilling chill.

The girls were trembling, trying to get away from here and return to their mothers' arms. They were all afraid.

In the darkness, you stepped on me, and I stepped on you. You pulled my hair, and I tore your dress. A serious stampede was about to happen.

Suddenly, two beams of dazzling light shot out from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, illuminating the sky in an instant.

"What are you panicking about? Stand still."

A clear and sharp voice was heard. On the wall of the Zhenguo Mansion, a strong flashlight was shining very brightly. Song Jinxiu, standing with her back to the light, looked like a solemn and majestic statue.

"This is a solar eclipse, a natural phenomenon. If you've read the Cangwu People's Daily, you should know about it. Don't be afraid, the sun will come out soon."

Song Jinxiu waved her hand and the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion opened. The guards rushed forward and took down several shocked men who were still standing there with sledgehammers.

A man reacted and tried to run, but was knocked unconscious by Su Wu who swung a stick.

The man fell headfirst, about to fall on a young girl, who was crying with her head tilted down.

Don’t underestimate this blow. If you are not careful, the girl’s fragile cervical vertebrae may be broken.

At the critical moment, Song Jinxiu's hand shook and a whip swung out. The long whip restrained the man and threw him to Su Wu's hand, who pressed him down.

The frightened girl suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my life. Your Highness, I was wrong. Wuwuwu..."

Song Jinxiu did not comment. She just didn't want to see any bloodshed in front of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

As for these people organizing this demonstration, she could only tolerate them this time, but Junjun was right, their fathers and brothers would be punished.

The darkness lasted only a few minutes. Soon, a dazzling light shone from behind the dark shadows, as if dawn had returned.

Standing on the wall, Song Jinxiu stood proudly facing the golden light, as if the Queen Mother of the West had descended to earth.

The light gradually expanded, forming a dazzling diamond ring, and then the sun began to slowly reappear from the other side. The sky gradually brightened and the temperature rose.

The solar eclipse is over.

Everyone turned around to look at the wall, but there was no trace of Song Jinxiu.

Suddenly, gongs and drums sounded and trumpets blew.

A team announcing the imperial decree came from the direction of the imperial palace in the distance.

"The imperial edict arrives..."

"Your Majesty is taking the Crown Princess back to the palace..."

In addition to Eunuch Hai who announced the decree, there were also officials from the six ministries.

They wore official uniforms, knelt at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, and shouted, "Welcome the Crown Princess back to the palace."

Before the female relatives could wipe the tears from their cheeks, the imperial edict had already been read out in public, and Song Jinxiu was once again named the Crown Princess.

After a moment of silence, someone suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted, "Welcome the Crown Princess back to the palace!"

All of a sudden, all the women knelt down and said, "Welcome the Crown Princess back to the palace!"

In the palace, Liu Renxiu looked at his fourth son who was barely breathing and closed his eyes in pain.

"Why did you get involved? Are you truly unwilling to accept this? Or do you want me to once again send someone young off while I'm still young?"

The Fourth Prince gave a bitter smile and said, "I am an unfilial son. I simply do not want to linger on. Only when my son steps forward can they completely give up their hope."

Including General Dingguo's Mansion and the restless maternal family of the eleventh brother.

"Let them see that even a son of mine cannot bear the weight of Cangwu. Then they will think twice before they think of anything. Cangwu cannot withstand internal strife."

Liu Renxiu frowned. "They can't cause any civil unrest. At most, they are just clowns. I don't take them seriously, and Kang Le doesn't take them seriously either."

The Fourth Prince closed his eyes.

Yes, what I thought was a huge matter was nothing to my father and Kangle.

This is the gap.

He said weakly, "My mother and my seventh brother are both gone, and I don't want to lose my uncle's family anymore."

Liu Renxiu: "He found a poisonous drug for my son. How can I forgive him?"

The Fourth Prince pleaded, "It's not a medicine for tigers and wolves, it's a seven-day elixir. Uncle spent all his money to find it to prolong his life. It's simply that his fate has come to an end and there's nothing he can do to save him."

Liu Renxiu frowned.

The Seven-Day Pill is a legendary holy medicine from overseas. It is said that even if a person is dead, as long as the body is not stiff, taking this pill within seven days can bring the person back to life.

Seeing his son's stubbornness, Liu Renxiu softened his heart and promised him to let Cheng Enhou go this time, but not again.

Marquis Cheng'en knelt outside the hall, tears streaming down his face.

Song Jinxiu moved back into the Eastern Palace, and everything seemed to have returned to normal. However, everyone in the court became particularly respectful to her. Her position as crown prince was secure.

On the third day of the winter month, an earthquake occurred in Liangzhou. Song Jinxiu and Su Mo went to the disaster area in person and directed the officers and soldiers stationed in Liangzhou to participate in disaster relief.

Thanks to the effective disaster relief efforts, people are at peace.

Winter passed and spring arrived, but there was no rain all spring. The drought was even more severe in central Cangwu, where it had been almost six months without rain.

Song Jinxiu ordered local officials to provide water carts to the people free of charge, rationally arrange water distribution, and rent oxen, all for the purpose of combating drought.

At the same time, chicken, duck and goose chicks are distributed free of charge to encourage people to raise more chickens, ducks and geese.

In some areas, rewards are even provided to large-scale breeders.

Everyone was very puzzled by this.

People are already busy fighting drought, why do they still have to raise chickens, ducks and geese in the midst of their busy schedule?

Fortunately, the government and the people worked together to fight the drought. The people were grateful to Di Ling and readily accepted the Crown Princess's small request to raise chickens, ducks and geese.

It is said that the Crown Princess came from a farming family. She may just want the common people to have prosperous livestock. This is a good intention.

Besides, chickens, ducks and geese don’t eat grains. They eat grass and insects. After raising the princess, they won’t take her back and can keep her for meat. Why not do it?

In previous years, such drought would have forced people to leave their homes, but this year's wheat harvest was unprecedentedly good.

In May and June, the wheat is harvested, and the farmers, who have shed their skin like a layer of skin, are filled with happy smiles. The anxiety caused by the solar eclipse is gradually forgotten.

However, in late July, a locust plague suddenly broke out in Yudong County.

The millet, which was about to be stored in the warehouse in ten days, was all affected by the soybeans.

Song Jinxiu: "Release all the chickens, ducks and geese into the ground. It's best to kill the locusts as soon as possible while they are still young."

Everyone then understood that the Crown Princess had asked them to raise chickens, ducks and geese in order to prevent a locust plague.

Song Jinxiu finally broke through the sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage. And she was about to reach the age of marriage.
