Chapter 53 Portrait
Prince Rong bowed upon entering and asked, "Father, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Emperor Mingde looked at the eldest son born to him and his beloved, and felt very satisfied.
He nodded and motioned King Rong to sit down and talk.
"Prince Rong, the Jinyiwei reported that you and the secret guards seem to be looking for someone."
Prince Rong immediately stood up again, clasping his hands together in a slightly excited manner, "Father, I'm not looking for a person, I'm looking for a god!"
Emperor Mingde stood up suddenly and asked, "What did you say?"
Eunuch Huang hurried forward to support Emperor Mingde.
Prince Rong helped Emperor Mingde sit on the couch, and then slowly said, "Father, please don't get excited.
When I was patrolling in the evening, I found someone wandering around ten large vats in the backyard, so I kept observing that person.
It was an old lady who put her hand into the big vat and then went to the kitchen. I was afraid that someone had poisoned her and wanted to catch her.
But in an instant the person disappeared!
I can't be mistaken, it's really gone.
There was no one nearby. My son and the secret guards had searched everywhere.
Afterwards, I checked the large vats and basins in the kitchen and backyard that the man had touched, and found that they were all filled with water!
The kitchen records the amount of water left over each day. I've asked the steward, and he confirmed that a lot of water is being produced.
Furthermore, tests have shown that the water is non-toxic and tastes sweet.”
Prince Rong picked up the bowl of water he had brought in and handed it to Emperor Mingde, "Father, look, this is the water bestowed by the gods."
Eunuch Huang took it and tested it with a silver needle. After finding that it was not poisonous, he served Emperor Mingde a sip.
Emperor Mingde took the bowl and didn't dislike it at all because it was just an ordinary bowl taken from the kitchen.
He drank it all in one gulp, then laughed heartily, "God bless our Great Xia! First the gods gave instructions on the natural disaster, and then they personally gave us water.
I heard that there was a village called Liujia Village, where two women lived for two months.
He did not interact with the villagers, and when he left, he gave them a yard full of food called sweet potatoes, which was very filling.
A full ten thousand pounds!
No one saw how the two women transported the sweet potatoes into the village, but they actually left them 10,000 kilograms.
The people of Liujia Village all said it was a visit from the gods."
Eunuch Huang stood aside and spoke softly, his voice full of joy. He bent down and said to his two masters, "Your Majesty, I heard something on the way.
I heard from an old man in the village that when they rested in the dilapidated temple a few days ago, there was nothing inside.
Until the two young men arrived, the backyard pond was full of water.
Later, I asked two young men to fetch water, but they left without asking for any. It was amazing!
Prince Rong and Emperor Mingde were overjoyed when they heard about this.
The rumors about gods and immortals have always originated from their Great Xia Dynasty, and gods and immortals have always been active in Great Xia. There is no news of gods and immortals appearing in other countries.
I heard that gods were ordinary people before they became gods. Does this mean that this god was originally from Daxia?
Will you only show up to help after seeing the misery of the people in your hometown?
The more Emperor Mingde thought about it, the more he felt that the truth was revealed. He excitedly pulled Prince Rong to the kitchen and backyard.
A large group of servants and guards followed, and the noise here woke up many sleeping concubines, princesses, princes and nobles. They all got up, dressed, and rushed to where Emperor Mingde was.
Jiang Yue listened to the noise and wondered why they were not sleeping in the middle of the night. They were all up and there were people everywhere.
They couldn't leave and could only continue waiting in the room.
Concubine Liang and Prince An of Yaochi also came over. Seeing the large vats and basins in the backyard and kitchen filled with water, they looked at each other in surprise. They didn't know how to react. Could there really be gods?
Emperor Mingde stood in the backyard, looking at the tanks of crystal clear water.
He was so excited that he knelt down and kowtowed towards the south. There was a loud noise of people kneeling on the ground. Even the emperor was kneeling. If you didn't kneel, wouldn't you be seeking death?
Emperor Mingde muttered something, stood up, and was helped by Eunuch Huang to go back and rest.
The queen also took the concubines back to their room to rest, and Concubine Liang and Yao Chi talked about current events.
"Mother, do you think there really are gods?"
Concubine Liang covered Yao Chi's mouth, signaling her to speak more quietly. "I don't know if there really are gods, but the fact that there's so much water is real. Your third brother saw it with his own eyes, so it shouldn't be wrong."
The gods have descended upon Daxia several times, which is truly a blessing for Daxia!
I wonder if the gods have time to visit your maternal ancestors, Liang State. I am so worried now."
Princess Yaochi comforted Concubine Liang and helped her go back to rest.
After being woken up, Prince An lost his sleepiness for a while. He and his third brother, Prince Rong, were in the same room with two beds.
This inn is not small, but the palace has a large population, so many royal relatives and branches are arranged to live in nearby residential areas.
The court officials and the merchants and common people who followed them were in a residential area farther away. Some people felt that it was cooler outside at night, so they rested directly on the street not far from the inn.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers even slept outside the city because the city simply could not accommodate so many people.
Prince Rong had not returned yet, and Prince An was bored and rummaged around the house. He came to Prince Rong's bed and took out a scroll from under his pillow.
Out of curiosity, I opened it and saw that this was the girl I met at the inn during the day.
How did the third brother get her portrait? What is their relationship?
For a moment, Prince An thought about many things in his mind, even wondering whether Jiang Yue might be his third brother's dream lover.
Just as I was criticizing King Rong in my heart, the door was opened.
"Fourth Brother, what are you doing?" A cold and dangerous voice came. Prince An shuddered and immediately rolled up the scroll and put it back in Prince Rong's hands.
"Third brother, hehe. Who is this? Which girl is she? Do you like her? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll introduce her to you." Prince An's expression and tone of voice that asked for a beating did not shake Prince Rong at all.
Prince Rong opened the portrait in his hand, looked at it once, and then rolled it up.
"What nonsense? This is... what did you just say? You introduced me to her? Have you seen her?" Prince Rong suddenly stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Prince An.
Prince An smiled proudly, "Yes, I know him. I just met him today. He's much more handsome in person than in the painting."
Prince Rong grabbed Prince An's arm, with a barely perceptible urgency in his voice, "Where is the person? Tell me quickly!" Prince An was glared at by his brother and immediately confessed everything.
"She's staying in this inn. I met her when I came here during the day. I didn't chase her away, so I let her stay on the second floor."
Looking at Prince Rong running out, Prince An was stunned. Is this still his third brother, Prince Rong, who has always been an icy figure, calm and composed in times of crisis, and who kills without blinking an eye?
Prince Rong ran out to find the innkeeper and asked if anyone else was staying there.
The shopkeeper was almost terrified and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake, "Your Highness Prince Rong, two girls did come to stay here yesterday morning. During the day, Prince An said that His Majesty wanted to rest in our inn, so we should have sent those two away."
But the world is in such a state of chaos right now, and I thought it would be dangerous for them to go out, so I asked Prince An if he could let them stay for a day, and he agreed.
We agreed that the two girls would leave tonight and not disturb you."
When King Rong heard that someone was leaving tonight, he quickly asked, "Has he left now?"
The shopkeeper broke out in a cold sweat, "No, the person is still in the inn."
