Not only was Xiao Jin silent, but the courtiers were also dumbfounded.

The Crown Prince was also slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Xiao Shuang to be so direct.

However, he understood that since it was Xiao Shuang who spoke, he couldn't avoid it.

So he spoke some flattering words for Xiao Jin's non-existent governing talent and smiled at Master Shi Ming, "Thank you, Master."

Master Shi Ming followed with some pleasantries and then handed the Wentianyi to the Crown Prince. "Your Highness, please."

The Crown Prince nodded and extended his hand from his sleeve, placing it on the radiant Wentianyi.

Xiao Jin sat in her wheelchair and observed silently, while also counting in her mind based on the law.

One, two, three.

After three seconds, the weather changed, and the world became dark.

In an instant, a strong wind blew, catching the courtiers off guard, causing their hair and ceremonial attire to be disheveled.

The strong wind carried tiny sand particles, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.

"What... what's going on? Why did such a strong wind come when the Crown Prince placed his hand on it..."

"No, the Crown Prince has always been benevolent and wise. How could he anger the heavens and bring such a disaster?"

"Could it be because of the incident with Prince Shen? I've said before, it must be because of the rumors in the streets that the Crown Prince became so angry and mercilessly killed his own prince uncle."

The wind and sand made it difficult to open their eyes, and the courtiers' whispers were inaudible amidst the chaos.

Xiao Jin had no time to care about what others were discussing; she simply received the two umbrellas handed to her by Ye Juege.

She gave one to Chu Shao and handed the other to Tang Ling, asking her to support Xiao Shuang.

Tang Ling looked at the umbrella handed to her by Xiao Jin.

Even though she usually remained calm and unaffected, her eyes twitched slightly at this moment.

In such a situation, why did Prince Yan have two umbrellas at hand?

Xiao Jin also noticed Tang Ling's strange expression and calmly explained, "The temperature has been fluctuating recently, so I had Juege carry the umbrellas."

Tang Ling didn't understand what "temperature fluctuation" meant, but she knew she shouldn't delve deeper into Xiao Jin's words. After all, she wasn't the only one who didn't understand what Xiao Jin was saying.

But when Tang Ling opened the umbrella, she probably understood Xiao Jin's meaning to some extent.

Because it started raining.

The rain curtains intertwined, and the sky alternated between light and dark. After several changes, it gradually revealed a golden hue.

The pale golden clouds drifted with the wind, eventually settling smoothly on the tip of the Dali Temple tower, shining like the Buddha statue in front of the hall.

The rain that fell from the clouds was also blown by the wind into a series of broken white pearls, dripping onto the altar, enough to wash away the long-accumulated dust on the stone slabs.

Seeing this phenomenon, the courtiers were speechless.

After a moment, they demonstrated their lightning-fast ability to change their stance. "Heaven bestows sweet rain, truly an auspicious sign! The Crown Prince is worthy of being the Crown Prince of Qi Country, able to summon such a phenomenon with his ability to command wind and rain."
