"Stop, stop!"

Su Youyi hurriedly stretched out her hand and shouted to stop, and the three princes all stopped halfway, at a loss.

Duofu stepped forward to remind him with a smile, "Three princes, four princes, eldest princess, your hands are ......"

Only then did the three princes and the others look at their own hands, it turned out that everyone had glutinous rice and water soaked in zongzi leaves on their hands, which was dirty and wet.

They didn't think that they had wrapped the zongzi for a long time, but they hurriedly put their hands back at this time, Su Youyi couldn't cry or laugh, "Duofu, quickly wipe them." ”

The third prince immediately withdrew his hand, "Can't wipe it, Queen Mother, we haven't finished wrapping it yet!" ”

The eldest princess said: "Queen Mother, a few of the wrappers have been steamed, and I will have someone send them to you, have you eaten them?" ”

Su You's appearance was a little embarrassed.

I just didn't eat it when I saw it.

Fortunately, the eldest princess was not depressed, "It's okay, it's okay, it was not wrapped well just now, and the queen mother didn't dare to eat it." We're wrapping it much better now than we were just now, so we'll see! ”

"No, no, no."

Su Youyi hurriedly said: "I didn't know that you did it, I thought it was a blessing for them to make fun of me." Duofu, you go to the front hall and bring the zongzi, and I will eat it here. ”

The eldest princess was even more excited when they heard this, and they shouted to continue to make zongzi.

Su Youyi stopped them, "Have you eaten the zongzi you made yourself?" ”

All three shook their heads.

Su Youyi said: "Then let's eat together, I'll wrap it with you after eating, how about it?" ”

……

After tasting the zongzi wrapped by himself, several small faces were wrinkled.

Su Youyi watched silently, pretending not to see it, and slowly ate her own.

It's strange to say, she doesn't like to eat the zongzi made in the imperial dining room so exquisite, but Su Youyi can eat these they wrap.

Su Youyi could eat it, but the three princes couldn't eat it.

"Don't eat it after the queen mother, it doesn't taste good."

When the eldest princess heard this, she also slowly put down her chopsticks, "Yes, it's really not delicious." It seems that the zongzi in the imperial dining room have been made very well, how can it be so easy to make delicious zongzi? ”

Su Youyi smiled silently, and slowly finished eating her one.

The filling of the zongzi is recognized, and the rice is also soaked by the palace people, the taste of the filling is appropriate, and the softness of the rice is just right.

It's not as unpalatable as they say.

The reason why it is not delicious is because the zongzi is not neatly wrapped, and the water vapor enters when steaming, and the taste of the rice naturally deteriorates.

After eating, she said: "It's not difficult to make it delicious, you don't wrap it well, so it's naturally not delicious." Let's go, I'll teach you how to wrap tightly. ”

The three princes all lost their chopsticks and returned to their original positions in a hurry.

When they left, Duofu hurriedly poured tea and came up, "Queen Mother, isn't it delicious?" You've eaten a whole one, so rinse your mouth! ”

Su Youyi drank most of the cup of tea, "It's okay, it's not very delicious." Why do you think I asked them to eat together? If I were to eat it all by myself, I would have to vomit......

Dofu snickered and helped her outside.

……

After being so troubled by the three princes and a few of them, Su Youyi was refreshed for a day, and when she went back to the dormitory to rest at night, she was too tired and fell asleep not long after dipping her pillow.

……

At the same time, Su Zhiming, who was far away in the northwest, couldn't sleep all night.

The silver for disaster relief was distributed according to the state capitals, and it was not allocated at the same time, but Su Zhiming sent it everywhere.

There is no other reason, but I am worried that corrupt officials and traitors will deceive the superiors and subordinates, and with him personally in charge, there is no need to worry about this problem.

However, there is also a downside to this, some of the more severely affected state capitals in the remote areas have not been able to get relief, and those who are waiting for him to come.

Su Zhiming comforted himself that in order for these silver grains to really reach the people, even if it was later, there was no way, and the lesser of two evils was chosen.

His team traveled almost day after day, rarely making unnecessary stops, hoping to solve the problem of the affected people's stomachs as soon as possible.

A fresh breeze came from the window.

Su Zhiming looked outside, a large area of thick green shade swaying in the night, the northwest weather was dry and hot, and there was a breeze at night.

That's what makes people feel a little more comfortable.

He looked up and saw a half-round moon in the sky.

He couldn't help but bow his head and sigh, "On such a moonlit night, if Brother Zhang was here, the two of us could recite poetry and wash away the mundane dust of the day." ”

He sighed.

After completely entering the Northwest Territory, Zhang Zhidong parted ways with him.

One travels through the most prosperous places in the state capitals, uniting local officials and government officials to provide disaster relief, and the other shuttles through the poor mountains and dense rains, leading craftsmen to find groundwater.

I'm afraid I won't see you again until the time of the return trip.

Su Zhiming was a little worried, the road to disaster relief had been half gone, and he had also punished many corrupt and bribe-taking officials, but he did not dare to act rashly against the magistrates.

The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, although he is a poor Qin, his grade is not higher than these local officials, so he can only persuade them with good words and tell them how the imperial court values this disaster relief.

It's okay to say this once, and Su Zhiming himself feels bored.

Now he only hopes that the empress dowager and the emperor can agree to his request and issue an order as soon as possible to allow him the right to cut off first and then play, so as to deter the trend of corruption in one fell swoop.

He sat alone by the window for half the night, chanting poetry to the moon, and I don't know how long it took before he fell asleep on the bookcase in front of the window.

In the middle of the night, a loud sound rang out in the sky.

"The Divine Decree has arrived!"

Su Zhiming woke up from his dream, raised his head and saw out the window, there was a quiet.

Strangely, he clearly heard the voice of the holy decree, could it be that he thought about it day and night, and heard it in his dreams?

He was in a trance, when he suddenly heard the sound of rustling in the front yard, the lights gradually turned on, and someone hurriedly ran over, "Adult, adult, wake up!" ”

"What's wrong?"

He was already awakened, and soon opened the door, and the entourage outside the door saw that he was wearing a coat, and his heart relaxed, "You quickly tidy up your clothes and go to the front, the holy decree in Beijing has been issued, and several state officials have also come to the post house to receive the order!" ”

"Really?!"

Su Zhiming was overjoyed, "It must be the Queen Mother and the Emperor who approved my idea, it must be!"

After saying that, he went to the front yard, only to see the messenger from Beijing holding torches, and a few sweaty and bloody horses parked in the courtyard of the post house.

Depending on the rank of the horse, this must be the will of the Eight Hundred Miles Hurry.

The officials of the state government walked in a panic while arranging their official uniforms and hats, and they had no idea whether this would be auspicious or evil.

"The holy decree has arrived, and the Northwest Disaster Relief Qin sent Su Zhiming to receive the decree!"

"Weichen takes the order!"

Su Zhiming led the kneeling in the hall, and behind him knelt a group of state ministers, curious and frightened waiting for the will.
