"I'm very ashamed to say this!" Princess Mu pretended to be very ashamed and said: "Our Shanyin is located in a remote area, and there are many mountains and few lands are very barren, and they are not as rich as your fiefdoms, so although I have the heart to relieve the disaster, I can't afford to take out too much money in my pocket, so I can only choose the cheapest things to supply the victims, in order to supply them for a few more days, so that the victims can survive this winter!"
Princess Mu's words were simply a slap in the face to Princess Heng, Li Hui looked at the expression on Princess Heng's face at this time, not to mention how funny it was, obviously just thinking about wanting to kick Princess Mu, but the result was that she was stepped on by Princess Mu.
"Hmm~~!" The old queen mother nodded slightly, Princess Mu's performance just now made her very satisfied, and at a glance, she knew that she was not the kind of person who could be bullied, and if those of them who married into the royal family were not strong enough, they would definitely not be able to live!
"Okay! Don't talk about those things, the mourning family has never liked to be involved in political affairs!" said the old lady impatiently waving her hand.
And as soon as the old queen mother said this, everyone immediately didn't dare to say anything, and they entered the palace here to leave a good impression on the old queen mother. After the atmosphere was a little dull, everyone immediately started talking again, as if nothing had happened just now.
After everyone chatted with the old queen mother for a while, the old queen mother directly sent them all away on the grounds that she was old and lacked energy, but the female official who sent Princess Mu quietly told her when she left that she would bring the children to the palace if she was okay in the future, and the old queen mother liked these two children very much. Princess Mu, who got this, was overjoyed, stuffed a big red envelope for the female official, and then took the two children out of the palace. And Li Hui entered the palace this time and showed her face to the old queen mother, and made an activity background wall throughout the whole process, but she didn't care about this Li Hui, what she cared about was why Huang'er was a little similar to the old queen mother.
"The mourning family has seen those two children!" The old queen mother thought of the two children she saw today, and the expression on her face was much softer than usual, "Lin'er, that child looks exactly the same as His Majesty when he was a child, and it makes people feel distressed to look at!"
"This kind of thing still has to let the queen mother come forward, it's really a son's failure!" His Majesty Emperor Xuande sat there with a smile on his face, but the smile did not enter his eyes.
"What failure is not failure!" the old queen mother glanced at her son and said, "Didn't you know that this son was exiled before?"
Emperor Xuande smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "In the final analysis, this matter is still the carelessness of my son back then, I didn't expect that the fifth brother had no way to have children, let alone that he was so bold that he dared to calculate me!"
Speaking of which, even Emperor Xuande himself couldn't believe that this thing was true, and he was actually calculated by his brother back then, and got one of his sons out.
"The mourning family looks at that Mu is a smart person, this thing is done very well, that Shu Xuanna?" The old queen mother now doesn't care what happened back then, but thinks about her eldest grandson.
"My son must be extraordinary!" Speaking of this, the expression on Emperor Xuande's face was much more vivid, "I used to make some of them before, Shu Xuan's child was the first to discover the problem, and he was also the first to react, and Shanyin is not a very rich place, but the people have lived and worked in peace and contentment under his jurisdiction in the past few years!"
"Well~~!not bad~~!not bad~~~!" The old queen mother was also satisfied when she heard Emperor Xuande say this, and nodded again and again, her son is good at everything, but the heirs are not abundant, and she was worried about what to do with the huge country where the prince died, but she didn't expect her son to say to herself that he still has a child who is living outside, and now those people in the court are not clamoring to establish the clan as the new emperor, so let them choose their own grandson.
"That's right~!When the mourning family chatted with the Mu family today, they found that she was a very methodical woman, and she also told the mourning family at that time that she planned to let people teach those victims some simple and easy-to-learn crafts, so that they could also have a skill in the future!"
"Really?" Emperor Xuande was stunned for a moment, but then said: "Also, that woman has some methods, when she gives alms, she only gives alms to the elderly, women and children, but those young and strong men have to go through some labor in exchange for food, it can be seen that she also cares about those ordinary people! Just now the queen mother also said, she also said that she will go back to teach those disaster victims crafts, such a woman is a model of a good wife!"
Duanmu Shuxuan and Princess Mu didn't know the conversation between Emperor Xuande and the old queen mother at this time, the two of them were now sitting together and talking about Princess Mu's entry into the palace today, Duanmu Shuxuan heard Princess Mu say that the old queen mother liked her two children very much, and said that she wanted Princess Mu to bring two more children into the palace, his heartbeat was much faster than usual.
"Okay~~!Okay~~!" Duanmu Shuxuan hugged his little son and kissed him fiercely on the face, his children are really powerful, they can actually make the old queen mother like them when they meet for the first time, if the two of them can make the old queen happy in the future, it will definitely be a great help for themselves.
Li Hui was lying on the bed alone, her face was a little tired, in fact, she could guess today that Duanmu Shuxuan would definitely stay at Princess Mu's place tonight, and Princess Mu must have a good time in the palace today!
"It's so annoying!" Li Hui bit her finger and said, Princess Mu can be so beautiful in the palace today, in the end, these things can be made by herself, although she said that she didn't care about these things, but letting Duanmu Shuxuan go over for this made her heart a little uncomfortable!
"It's even more annoying!" Li Hui rolled on the bed, which is why he didn't dare to say it even if he fell in love with Duanmu Shuxuan, as long as he didn't say it, he could pretend that he didn't care, he could tolerate sharing his lover with other women, if she said it, just competing with other people for Duanmu Shuxuan could drive her crazy.
Since the summons of the Queen Mother, the competition for alms outside has become more and more chaotic, and even some places have actually given up meat, in the face of such a chaotic situation, Li Hui just ordered his subordinates to continue to do a good job of almsgiving, as for those disaster victims come or not It doesn't matter, it's a big deal to reduce the points of almsgiving in a few places, just boil less porridge, and the other aspects are still the same, still only give to the elderly, women and children, and those young and middle-aged men must get food through their own labor.
After returning from the palace, Princess Mu paid attention to the matter of almsgiving, when the almsgiving outside was chaotic, she was also worried that this almsgiving would not be able to continue, there must be seven or eight alms in the capital now, and the things made by that family are better than their own, and there are fewer and fewer people who come to receive alms every day. Princess Mu also discussed with Li Hui that if she didn't want to give alms, it would be a shame if she didn't even come to the end.
But what I didn't expect was that Li Hui told Princess Mu not to worry about this, and this almsgiving was first organized by her own family, if she gave up halfway, it would be laughed at, as for the victims, don't worry, there will definitely be disaster victims, sure enough, within a few days, there will be more victims at the almsgiving points, and in the end, even a few more alms points were added to relieve the pressure.
"Have you come back with all the food and things you ordered?" asked Li Hui, putting down the book in his hand.
"Back to Niangniang, except for the things ordered by the Huo family trading house, which will come as scheduled, the other trading houses have delayed to varying degrees, and many families have not paid for any goods until now!" said the steward with his head bowed respectfully.
Lu Ru frowned and said to Li Hui when she heard the steward say this: "Niangniang, what are we going to do?
"No!" Li Hui raised his hand and said, "Didn't I tell you to write that if you breach the contract, you will be compensated ten times the market price if you sign the contract in the past?"
"Yes~!" At that time, they all felt strange at this time, they were the people of the King of Shanyin, how dare those merchants break the contract, but they didn't expect that there were so many bold people in this capital, but at this time they also admired Concubine Li even more, she actually foresaw that such a thing would happen, and made a precautionary work in advance.
"You take the name of the prince to the yamen, and let the yamen send someone to follow you!" Li Hui said in a very calm tone: "When we signed the contract with them at that time, there was no bullying against others, since they dared to breach the contract, then they must have the consciousness of breach of contract, and ten times the compensation is not less than a copper plate! If they want to talk to someone, then let them go to the prince to negotiate!"
"Yes~~!" the steward listened to Li Hui's instructions, and his excited body trembled a little.
The stewards who got Li Hui's order immediately took the name of the prince of their own family and went to the yamen, Duanmu Shuxuan is also a prince in any way, of course they don't dare to have any neglect, and immediately sent people to accompany those stewards to visit those business houses from house to house!
Every time the previous trading houses saw the stewards of the San'in Palace, they found all kinds of excuses and reasons to beg for some grace as much as possible, but today when they saw the stewards of the San'in Palace, with the people in the yamen, everyone's faces changed completely, and when they heard that the steward of the San'in Palace, they came to get the compensation according to the contract, and everyone looked like they had died father, and this time they were not begging, but kneeling and begging that they would prepare all those things in two days at mostใ
"Within two days?" the Qi steward of the Shanyin Palace's palace sneered and said, "Didn't you tell me why it would take me ten days and half a month to come back before? Now I can get there in two days? Who do you mean by this? Who gave you the guts? Even the prince of our family dared to lie?"
After Steward Qi finished saying this, he turned his head and said to the officials behind him who had come from inside the yamen: "What are they like this? Is this considered fraud? Defrauding the royal family! I don't know what kind of crime these people are going to judge for? I think there are a few more cells in the yamen, otherwise I am afraid that so many people will not be able to fit them!"
This time, those people in the trading house were even more crying and shouting for their mothers, because of the relationship of charity, all the grain prices had increased a lot, and the amount originally booked by the Sanyin Mansion was too large, and now they have to pay compensation ten times the market price, which is definitely a lot of money that will break their muscles and bones. Now they are extremely sorry in their hearts, regret how they listened to the bewitchment of those people, and forced the batch of goods not to be sent, but now they are blocked by others on the door, and now they know that the Sanyin Mansion will never give up, so they can only run to find those people behind the instructions.
"There must be a lot of people outside who are going to come to the prince these days, you better think of a good way to avoid those people!" Li Hui lay in Duanmu Shuxuan's arms and said: "It's best to find a way to let the princess hide for a few days, even we dare to bully, we must let them know that we are not so easy to bully!"
"Hmm~~!" Duanmu Shuxuan nodded and said: "Your Majesty has said today, let me cooperate with the prime minister to deal with disaster relief matters, and the old queen mother also said that she wants the princess to take the child into the palace for two days, so tomorrow the princess will enter the palace, and I will be busy here, and I will return to the house during this time!"
Duanmu Shuxuan said and picked up a strand of Li Hui's hair and played with it in his hand, "Are you really planning to give them a dead knock? There must be someone behind them if they dare to do this!"
"The concubine knows!" Li Hui raised his head, tilted his head to look at Duanmu Shuxuan, blinked his eyes a few times, and said: "But this kind of thing is not something that a little concubine of mine can manage!Ah~~~!What should I do? The prince and the princess are not there? It is really embarrassing for the concubine!"
Duanmu Shuxuan was amused by Li Hui's words, he pinched Li Hui's little face and said, "This king really doesn't know what your little head is in!"
"Pretend to be a brain!" Li Hui said very seriously, and she couldn't help but giggle after she finished laughing, but when she finished laughing, she said to Duanmu Shuxuan very seriously: "This thing is like this, I'm afraid that those people outside will definitely not be so good!"
