Angelica straightened up and said loudly to the people below: "Considering that some of you are elderly, young children, and seriously ill people, who are not suitable for high-intensity physical labor, therefore, these people do not need to work after eating, but this year, the country has a shortage of food, and if they do not work, the food they receive will naturally be reduced by more than half." ”

When Angelica said this, his eyes swept over the people in front of him, and then he continued to speak: "Now, please come here for the elderly and children over fifty and fourteen, and for children under the age of five, each family needs to have an adult parent to be listed, and in addition, there are also people who think they are very sick and unable to perform manual labor. ”

Everyone's enthusiasm was already mobilized by Angelica, and now, it has been announced that those who do not go to work will be given less than half of the food, so the people in line below, unless it is the kind of last resort that really can't do it, no one is out of the ranks.

In the long line, a few people stood out.

Angelica clearly saw that some of the children, short and short, looked only seven or eight years old, ten years old, but none of them stood up.

Angelica looked at a child who was in the sixth place in front of him and beckoned to him: "Little brother, you come out." ”

The child was a little panicked, first looked at his mother beside him, and then at Angelica, his mother looked at him, and immediately stretched out his hand, and pressed the child to his lower abdomen, and said nervously to Angelica: "County Lord, I ...... My kid can do anything at home, don't let him go out, okay? Please, I'm not afraid of the child's work, I'm afraid of him...... I'm afraid he won't have enough to eat. ”

Angelica sighed secretly in his heart, then walked out of his position and walked up to the child: "Little brother, the work is very heavy, do you really want to go?" ”

The child didn't speak, but nodded heavily: "I want to go, sister county lord, I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm willing to work for sister county lord and plant sweet potatoes." ”

"Good boy!" Angelica patted his immature shoulder: "Then do it well, my sister believes that you can do it well." ”

"Alright, it's not too early, let's eat!"

As soon as Angelica's voice fell, the cook in front of him began to distribute food to the refugees.

……

In the palace, Wang Fulai told the emperor in detail what he saw in the relief hall.

The emperor stroked his beard on his chin with great satisfaction, and said with a smile: "You said that the county lord of Anping said me so well in front of the common people? ”

"Your Majesty, the county lord of Anping just told the truth, the emperor was originally so good, at that time, there were a lot of people in front of the relief hall, and they all said that the emperor was wise and a rare good monarch."

Wang Fulai also smiled very brightly on his face, and said that the emperor was full of joy.

The emperor's mood became happier and happier, and he danced a little: "I haven't been as happy as I am now, this county lord of Anping is really a rare wonderful person, I look at that, in my harem, there is no concubine who can compare to her smart and virtuous." ”

Wang Fu looked at the smile on the emperor's face and the hunting light that flickered slightly in his eyes, and his heart moved slightly.

Wang Fulai put away the smile on his face, "Your Majesty, the slave maid looks at the age of the county lord of Anping and General Long, both of them are also people who have made great contributions, and they have a marriage contract, and after the county lord of Anping successfully planted sweet potatoes in the royal farm this time, the emperor might as well push the boat down the river, give them a grace, and give them a marriage in Chang'an City."

The slave maid thought that when the people of the world knew about it, they would praise the emperor. ”
