PS: Since someone brought it up, let me explain first. A single shower of seawater will not create saline-alkali soil. Seawater soaking into coastal land can form coastal saline-alkali soil, but this is a long-term process. Without enough time and enough water to soak through it, the soil cannot be changed. Saline-alkali soil also varies in severity. In mild cases, just a few heavy rainstorms can carry the soluble salts and alkalis from the topsoil down into deeper layers. A single shower of seawater would not even cause that mild degree of damage. However, as an ordinary transmigrator, the protagonist does not know any of this.
Chong Yingbiao reacted swiftly. With a thud, he dropped to his knees and howled, "Your Majesty's benevolence is the mandate of Heaven!"
He prostrated himself, forehead and all four limbs pressed to the ground.
The other Royal Guards caught on as well, bowing down one after another and hollering.
Then came the civil and military officials, followed by the common people.
The Sacrificial Altar seemed to sway a little as the Royal Guards bowed down.
Zi Shou felt a tightness in his chest.
Others might not know the truth, but he knew it all too well.
What did I know about praying for rain? I only wanted to stir up resentment throughout Guanjiangkou by failing to bring any!
Yet today, it had actually fucking rained.
Do I really command that much respect? I make an offering, and down comes the rain?
No, that isn't right either!
I was making offerings to myself!
Zi Shou tilted his head back to look at the sky. Serves you right that your little sister ran off with someone else.
As he kept looking up, he noticed something wrong.
The rain tasted a little salty.
Seawater rain?
