The power of gods and ghosts in ancient times was still very strong. Especially when everyone witnessed the punishment from heaven, the entire city of Bianjing started to operate at high speed.

However, seeing that Zhao Zhen was still retaining his dignity and not taking action in person, Lin Qinshuang naturally would not lower herself and show up on her own initiative.

After everyone had searched for a day without any results, she had the system scatter rice on the road to attract hungry birds to line up in a long queue, pretending to be a strange sign, and lead the officials who were sent out to look for the goddess to the edge of Sheng's manor.

Then, the group of officials who had been full of confidence were horrified to find that although they had arrived at the door, they could not enter the manor no matter what.

No matter if you knock on the door properly or try to climb over the wall, you will end up with the same result, which is -

After a flash of lightning, the person who tried to enter the door fainted with a bang, his new curly hairstyle!

The people who fell to the ground were twitching all over, and the more serious ones even foamed at the mouth. Although they didn't look like they were in danger of death, it was still very scary!!!

In this regard, the hardworking gardener who laid the electric wires all over the manor one step ahead of time felt very praised!

After repeated attempts failed, the leading officials immediately rushed back to the city with the wounded.

Anyway, he was sure that he had found the location of the goddess. He would let the ministers take a look at the bodies of the wounded and explain that he could not enter the village to meet the goddess due to limited circumstances. The emperor would not blame him!

Oh, by the way, we have to investigate in advance who owns this manor. It is so bold to dare to hurt the goddess!

Since they left the outskirts of Beijing, they have been deeply shocked by the sight of vast expanses of empty and desolate fields and the cries of the farmers.

The autumn harvest was only a few days away, but now such a fatal incident had occurred. All the ministers who had seen the damage to the fields with their own eyes felt that this punishment from heaven could not be more real.

If something really happened to the goddess in their Song Dynasty, then God would probably let the entire city of Bianjing be buried with her!

(The actual way of heaven: he~tui~! If you were not controlled by the big devil, you would be hit by my big nose now!)

When the officials who were sent out of the city returned to the palace one after another to pay homage to the emperor, the emperor and his ministers who remained in the court could not help but become anxious.

The permanent population of Bianjing City is about a few million. Even if Zhao Zhen starts opening the granaries to release grain to stabilize the people's hearts from today, he will definitely not be able to last for a month!

One month!

If this divine punishment cannot be resolved within a month, the capital of the Song Dynasty will surely be overturned by the hungry people!

Zhao Zhen was as anxious as an ant on hot pan, and began to walk around the hall with his hands behind his back.

Just when the ministers were staring at Zhao Zhen with their eyes wide open, Zhao Zhen suddenly stopped. He remembered something crucial.

"By the way, have you found out whose farm that is?"

It so happened that the people who had been sent out had almost returned, and the perceptive eunuch Zhang immediately brought them in.

"Reporting to the emperor, I have already found out that the manor is owned by Sheng Hong, a fifth-rank official of the Ministry of Rites."

"Sheng Hong..."

Zhao Zhen pondered for a while after hearing this. He didn't have much memory about this person, only a vague impression of him. Then he waved his hand and asked someone to call Sheng Hong to the palace. He calmed himself down and discussed with the remaining few trusted ministers that he would go to meet the goddess in person.

The ministers saw that Zhao Zhen had made up his mind. Moreover, they had seen the conditions of the wounded who had been electrocuted unconscious before. They guessed that the situation could only be reversed if the emperor went to meet the goddess in person.

Therefore, after they reluctantly gave a few words of persuasion, upholding their image of being loyal to the emperor and patriotic, they sighed and followed the emperor out of the palace.

On the other side, the Sheng residence was in a mess.

Sheng Hong's face was pale, his whole body was trembling, and drops of cold sweat from his forehead were dripping onto the ground.

Although his official position was not high, he could at least participate in the grand court meetings, so he had seen with his own eyes the words "The goddess is in trouble, and all the people are in distress" written on the palace wall.

Sheng Hong is cautious by nature, or in other words, timid. When he woke up early yesterday morning and saw that all the plants in his house had died, he felt that something bad was going to happen. What's more, the palace has specially sent someone over to ask him to enter the palace and to inquire in detail about the situation of his farm outside the capital.

Even though he had a lot of pain in his heart, Sheng Hong dared not hide it. In the end, he tremblingly told everyone about the manor and Lin Qinshuang who was there.

When the official who came to deliver the message heard that Lin Qinshuang had been caned and no one on the farm had ever called a doctor to treat her, his eyes immediately changed when he looked at Sheng Hong.

Great! Finally we found the culprit!

Official, that's him! (Conan pointing.jpg)

In fact, this kind of private handling of concubines and slaves was not uncommon in officials' families, but Sheng Hong was unlucky enough to get into trouble!

He bullied the goddess and implicated the entire city of Bianjing. Although he is still alive, everyone knows that the Sheng family is finished.

Wang Ruofu was still a little confused and couldn't see clearly, but Old Madam Sheng, who came from a noble family, had already sensed something.

She watched the limp Sheng Hong being forcibly carried away by the officers and soldiers, and she couldn't help but burst into tears. She tapped the floor with her crutch several times before finally crying.

"What a sin! What a sin!"

"What is the old lady talking about? I don't believe that little bitch Lin Qinshuang has such great ability!"

Although Wang Ruofu was also nervous, she couldn't control her mouth. She wanted to say something to ease her inner tension, but was stopped by the old lady.

"Shut up! You evil creature... If Lin and Lin Qinshuang are really related by God, the only plan now is... Quick, go call Mo Yatou and Chang Feng over!"

……

No matter how chaotic the Sheng family was now, Zhao Zhen, who had prepared the ceremonial guard and led his ministers to the farm outside the capital, felt a little nervous but more confident.

It was nothing, it was just because he heard his ancestor coughing again when he was changing clothes!

He was now terribly inflated, thinking that he was blessed and would be able to lead the Song Dynasty safely through this disaster.

Moreover, the goddess's coming to the earth is both a disaster and an opportunity. Who knows... under his leadership, the Song Dynasty can make further progress!

It was precisely because of this kind of thought that Zhao Zhen, who paraded through the city with such high spirits and courage, actually made the onlookers feel at ease.

There was no riot during the two days of divine punishment, which shows how much Zhao Zhen was loved by the people of Bianliang.

When Zhao Zhen could see the farm outside the capital from afar, a magical deer with a snow-white body and a pair of huge branches on its head suddenly appeared in front of the emperor and his ministers of the Song Dynasty.

"Officials be careful!"

"It's okay. Deer have been auspicious since ancient times. What's more, it appears here. I think it must be the divine beast that protects the goddess."

This snow-white deer is indeed magical. Although it is completely white, when the sun shines on its fur, people can faintly see a layer of colorful halo emerging on it.

Not to mention, at this time of divine punishment when everything is withering, the deer's horns are actually covered with bright and beautiful flowers!

It really looks like an elf running out of the mountains!

Zhao Zhen, who was very obsessed with appearance, only took one look at the deer and immediately determined that it was definitely a good deer!
