No. 280 Disaster Relief Funds
"I've only been married for a few days, and you sent my husband to the border to supervise the war, and asked me for money, but I didn't have money." Yun Xi pouted and said.
"He became the prime minister at such a young age, and he didn't know how to serve the public, and I was also for his good."
"Then why don't you go, don't you also become an emperor at a young age? Do you have a big deal? Yun Xi asked rhetorically.
"Xiaoxi, you're wrong, I'm the heir to my father's throne, didn't my father die? I really haven't done much, don't I want to show up on disaster relief? β
"What kind of expression are you, at best, it's just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." The corners of Yun Xi's mouth twitched.
"Then you promised to give me the disaster relief money." Haotian said in surprise.
"Don't be too happy, tell me how much money it will cost."
"It's not a lot, it's just 100,000 taels of gold."
"You are a lion with a big mouth, 100,000 taels or gold, and that's it."
"I know you're rich, you're the richest man in Kyoto, you're doing so much buying, and you've earned more than that from the Moon Country that time."
"Don't you know I'm married now"? I can't get married, and I still have to ask my parents for money. It's not like you don't know that my mother values money more than her life. Yun Xi glared at him and said.
"You don't have any money?" Haotian asked.
"Yes, but not so much." Yun Xi replied
"You go back and talk to your mother, the people of Sishui County will not forget her." Haotian said.
"I won't forget you!" Yun Xi pouted and said.
"Then I won't forget about her! I mainly don't forget about his daughter. β
"You are less poor, 100,000 taels! I'll try to raise it for you. I'm going if there's nothing else to do. Yun Xi said.
"Xiaoxi. Don't leave yet, there was a letter from the border yesterday. β
"What does the letter say?" Xiao Xi asked hurriedly.
It is said that our officers and soldiers and Lan Lin's army have attacked Yelu Guo left and right, and have already hit the city of Yelu, and now our officers and soldiers have surrounded Yelu City, cutting off his water supply, grain and grass. Xiaoxi, it won't be long before Jia Chen returns victoriously, and you can be reunited then. β
"You say they're attacking Jerod right now?
"That's what the letter says."
It's pretty fast, are there any injuries over there? Yun Xi asked.
"Didn't anyone get hurt in the war? Don't worry, as long as it's not your family, it's fine. β
"If he's hurt, I'll be done with you."
"It's endless, did you eat me or whatever."
"You're talking nonsense again, okay. I won't tell you, I'm leaving. β
"You remember the disaster relief money. The victims are dying of starvation every day,"
"Got it, I'll be ready to send it to you tomorrow!"
"That's great, I'll wait for you."
The corners of Yun Xi's mouth twitched. "I'm leaving."
"I'll send you?"
"Don't worry about you. In the future, it would be better to count me less. β
Yun Xi walked out of the room. Seeing Xiaoxue and Ruyan standing at the door, the two saw Yun Xi coming out and hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you leaving?" Or you can sit down again. β
"Don't sit down. If you sit again, you should go bankrupt. After Yun Xi finished speaking, he walked out of the emperor's dormitory, and after going out, Yun Xi got into his carriage and rushed back to the garment workshop.
At dinner, Yun Xi told her parents about the emperor begging her to donate disaster relief funds, and Yun Xi's mother said: "Xiaoxi, why are you so stupid, that's 100,000 taels of gold, why did you agree?" β
"The emperor has said it, do I dare not agree? It's hard to disobey the emperor's order, and besides, we are still doing the business of the palace. β
"It's okay if you don't do the business of the palace, and if you don't make much money, you have to donate."
"My mother offended the emperor, I'm afraid it's not just that the palace can't do business! I'm afraid that all business will be affected, not to mention, your son and your uncle's official positions will be lost. β
"Alas, you shouldn't have gone to the palace today."
"It has nothing to do with whether I go to the palace or not, if the emperor recognizes you, even if you don't go, he will find you."
"Then we have this disaster relief money out?" Yun Xi asked herself.
"It's out, I can't bear the child to trap the wolf, I'll come out for the future of Xiaozhu and Xiaochen." Yun Xi's father said.
"You don't need Daddy, just pay it from the account of the garment factory!"
"That's not good, the garment shop has to use money to buy cloth, silk, and satin,"
"Didn't you do business with Yueguo a few times last time? Those few times earned enough 100,000 disaster relief funds. β
"Also, how did I forget, then mother, you are ready, I will send it to the emperor tomorrow." Yun Xi said.
The next day, Yun Xi went to the palace after breakfast, this time Yun Xi just entered Haotian's bedroom, and cut Xiao Xue at the door, Xiao Xue saw Yun Xi and said, "Xiao Xi, the emperor is waiting for you in the guest room." β
"He didn't go to the early court?"
"Nope."
As soon as Yun Xi entered the guest room, he saw Haotian sitting on a chair, looking at himself, and hurriedly asked, "Why didn't you go to the morning court?" β
"Isn't that waiting for you?"
"I'm waiting for the money." Yun Xi teased.
"Wait."
"Then who will send it to Sishui County?" Yun Xi asked.
"Father-in-law Li."
"You're not afraid that he and the local officials will steal it."
"He didn't have the guts. If you don't worry, you can go along. β
"Then why don't you go along?" Yun Xi asked.
"Well said, I'll build yì and we both go, one is that this silver is from you, so that the people of Sishui County can see their life-saving benefactors, and second, you can also scatter your heart."
"Then I'll go back and pack my bags." Yun Xi said that Yun Xi did not expect the people to thank him, and decided to go to Surabaya County mainly to distract himself and see if there were any business opportunities by the way.
Yun Xi went back to the garment shop and told his parents about the disaster relief that the emperor wanted him to go to Sishui County with, and his father said: "Go, that's a good thing, just say that you are the prime minister's wife, and earn some light for Xiao Chen." β
"I don't agree with you going, there was an accident the last time I went to Baozi Town. This Sishui County is farther away, and my mother is afraid that something will happen to you. Yun Xi said uneasily.
"The emperor will go too, it will be fine."
"I should go for the emperor, so I'm not at ease."
"It's okay mother, your daughter's life is in danger. Besides, it is impossible for the emperor to go alone! I'm sure I'll be following a large group of Ouchi guards. Yun Xi persuaded.
"Mother, just a daughter like you, I don't want you to have something to do."
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." After speaking, Yun Xi will pack her luggage in her room.
The emperor is also explaining the affairs of the palace, he decided to bring Xiaoxue and Ruyan, after all, the two of them have good martial arts, and they brought their ten Hao family soldiers, although they were taken away by Jia Chen and hundreds went to the border pass, but Haotian still picked out dozens of them from it, as the inner guards to protect the safety of the palace, Haotian called the head of the guards, Gao Yuan, to his side, and said: "Gao Yuan, I have to go out for a few days, the safety of this palace will be handed over to you, you must protect the queen mother, you must listen to the arrangement of the queen mother." β
"The minister respects the order, the emperor can rest assured, the minister will definitely live up to the emperor's trust, will definitely protect the queen mother, and will definitely protect everyone in the palace."
"I'm relieved, okay, you go down!"
Haotian said to Xiaoxue and Ruyan: "You two pack your luggage, and when Xiaoxi comes back, we will set off." β
Haotian went to the Queen Mother's Zizhu Courtyard again, the two girls saw that the emperor was coming, and they were busy going in to report, and the emperor ignored them and went in directly, the Queen Mother was resting and just heard the little maid's report, and heard her son calling the queen mother, so she got up and freshened up, and saw her son smile and asked, "Did Xiaotian just go down to court?" Have you eaten early? β
"Queen Mother, I have eaten, I came to tell you, I am going to Sishui Town today for disaster relief, and I will leave the safety of the palace to the plateau, if you have something, let him be informed, and shouted outside: "Xia Xue, red clouds...... A few of you are responsible for the safety of the Queen Mother, remember that if the Queen Mother is too good for me, then you can ask. β
"Don't worry about the emperor, and we will be fine with the queen."
"Then I'll leave the queen mother."
"You must bring more guards, and you must be careful on the road." The queen instructed.
"Knowing the queen mother, then I'll go."
After Haotian came out of the queen's place, he returned to his bedroom, Yun Xi was talking to Ruyan, and when he saw Haotian coming back, he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Are you ready?" Be sure to bring more guards with high martial arts. And bring the two of them with you. After speaking, he pointed to Xiaoxue and Ruyan.
"Don't worry! I'm all set. β
"Ready to eat?" Yun Xi asked.
"What else to prepare, I'll let Gonggong Li buy food." Haotian said.
"We can't just eat that! Would you like to prepare some snacks? β
"Shall I go get some snacks then?" Xiaoxue looked at Haotian and asked.
"Let's go and get more, I'm getting some fruits and vegetables, there may not be a restaurant in that place, it's really not good to take a few pots, we cook and eat by ourselves."
Hao Tian ordered a few people to prepare these things, and after a while, Gonggong Li came back to report that the rice noodles had been loaded, several guards also brought the marching pot, and Xiaoxue and Ruyan also prepared snacks, fruits and vegetables.
"Now that we're ready, let's hit the road!" Haotian ordered.
After getting ready, Yun Xi and his party went on the road, Yun Xi and the two girls took the carriage, the emperor and the guards rode horses, because everyone was disguised and disguised, so they were not afraid of being recognized, on the way Haotian ordered everyone, he and Yun Xi were commensurate with brother and sister, lived in Baozi Town, and opened a restaurant, I heard that there was a famine in Sishui County and wanted to go where to open a restaurant to make a small fortune, so I shipped some rice and noodles.
Along the way, everyone didn't eat much, just ate some snacks, and when it was dark, Yunxi and Haotian decided to find a hotel to stay in, so that everyone could have a hot meal and sleep well.
