The number of second-hand quilts, cotton clothes and shoes that the white steward bought from various pawnshops was not too large, so Gu Wanning asked people to clean up some of the previously eliminated ones from the palace and send them to the house outside.

Feng Xinrou ventilated with her family again, and sent all the cotton clothes and quilts that had been eliminated by the family in the past to the victims.

Soon, nearly 100 people lived in the shelter, and there was no place for the victims to come, so the white steward continued to rent the space, but in four or five days, nearly 300 people were accommodated.

Next, it is time for these people to officially go to work, select a batch of stable cleaning and send them to grind medicinal herbs, and then make them into pills and send them directly to Dejitang.

The heavy snow caused many people in Beijing to be infected with wind and cold, and there were queues in front of the pharmacy to see a doctor, and the doctors were too busy.

Since the pill was available, the doctor at the pharmacy only needed to help the patient check the pulse, and then sell the pill to those patients, the pill was convenient to eat and the effect was fast, but it took two or three days to make a reputation, and then the supply exceeded demand every day.

Some women who were good at needlework made gloves, wool scarves, and hats, and some were strong enough and had a lot of strength, so the white steward had them go out and help those who had problems with their houses to set up temporary tents.

There were also some people, even those who had no skills and couldn't do heavy work, so Gu Wanning asked them to boil ginger soup on the street to ward off the cold for the soldiers who came and went on patrol.

The remaining small number of people are responsible for logistics, in short, all have work to do, every night when they can rest, these people subtract their own food money for a day and have surplus money to take, the days can be very stable, originally planned to live in the house, and then go out to get free porridge to eat The people have dispelled the idea, after all, they are paid according to their work, the more they work, the more they earn, how can there be that time to queue up for a bowl of porridge for half a day.

The dark guard understood the operation here, and immediately entered the palace.

……

In Chaoyang Palace, the emperor looked at the soup at hand and had a strange idea, he glanced at Li Changhai twice, looked at Li Changhai, and then asked: "This soup, what's the matter?" ”

Li Changhai was frightened, and quickly knelt on the ground and explained: "This is lion's mane mushroom pork belly and codonopsis yam soup, which nourish the stomach, the emperor, try it." ”

The emperor glared: "Is this what I mean?" What I asked was why you keep serving me soup these days? ”

Li Changhai shuddered, "Your Majesty, the minion, the slave listened to King Yujun say that drinking tea affects sleep, and drinking soup has many benefits......"

"When did he tell you this?"

Li Changhai carefully glanced at the emperor's face, and saw that the emperor didn't look angry, so he carefully said the words of the king of Yujun: "The king of Yujun said: The father loves the people like a son, this snow does not stop every day, he will worry about it all day, and the manager Li has to suffer more and worry more, the small kitchen can always have some soup to ward off the cold and nourish the stomach, drinking soup is better than drinking tea, drinking tea is easy to insomnia, when it comes to eating, Manager Li does not have to wait for his father to speak, directly put the dishes up and put them on the table, the father is the most thrifty and can't bear to waste food......"

Not only did he repeat the words as they were, but even Ye Hanyu's tone at that time was eight or nine points, and the emperor laughed when he listened to it, "I'll just say why are you such a bold old thing lately, okay, don't kneel, your legs are lame, who will serve me soup in the future." ”

Li Changhai wiped the sweat on his head, and the emperor said that he would have to serve the soup in the future, that is, he didn't care about this matter, so he said, as long as the emperor knew that these things were arranged by King Yujun, then he would only be happy, and he would not punish him.

When the emperor drank all the soup, it happened that the secret guard came and reported to the emperor what he had seen these days.

The emperor was happy in his heart, and the secret guard in front of him really knew how to do things, and directly asked Li Changhai to reward him with fifty taels of silver, and then follow suit, don't you want to eat enough?

Then let's work, the snow has stopped falling for several days during this time, and the soldiers are tired and unclear, so that those caravans can transport grain into the capital, they have to clean the official roads every day.

Simply, this job was left to these victims who ate white food.

Wherever you get the disaster relief porridge to eat, you can work on the other side, and the victims can't do anything, in the past, the soup porridge was one bowl a day, it doesn't matter if you are full or not, you just don't die of hunger.

Now as long as you work, you eat two meals a day, and those who are full, and those who have done their work, the overseers will mark their hands and eat according to the mark.

If you don't do it, you'll only starve.

As a result, the capital suddenly became a lot cleaner, because the original swaying victims could not be seen, and they were all dragged away to work.

……

Xia Guifei has been very anxious these days, and there are two days left for her to marry her daughter-in-law, but now that the snow is still falling, there is no intention of stopping at all.

In this case, she didn't dare to hold her son's wedding too grandly, she had the heart to change the marriage date with the emperor, but the Ministry of Rites had been preparing for more than half a year, how could she agree to change the date without authorization.

In the end, it was the Seventh Prince who made the decision, and the wedding was still held as scheduled, and he should strive to have a sense of presence in front of his father.

That inexplicable assignment made him think a little more......

The fifth princess didn't know what gift the seventh concubine wanted to give when she married the concubine, so she came to discuss with Gu Wanning, Gu Wanning said: "I deliberately looked through the gift list when I married our father yesterday, and those gifts are about a few hundred taels of silver, and I don't plan to give more, just prepare according to this price." ”

The gifts given by the fifth brother and five sisters-in-law are not in this category, the price has more than doubled, and they are all practical things.

So, if you want to see who has a good relationship with whom, just flip through the gift list, the original Ye Moxuan and Ye Hanyu are the two poorest princes in this palace, but Ye Moxuan took out the most expensive gifts.

"Okay, then listen to you, I'll also flip through those gift lists, and then find something that looks good but isn't practical to send to Lao Qi."

She married in earlier, and she knew a little more about Lao Qi, and she could feel it better, Ye Moxuan didn't like Lao Qi very much, so naturally she didn't have to spend too much money on gifts.

"Speaking of which, Lao Qi is also unlucky, the big day of getting married, just caught up with this heavy snowfall, otherwise his wedding banquet should be the most lively among all the princes."

Xia Guifei's family background is illustrious, and she is quite favored, and many ministers in the court have secretly taken refuge in the Seventh Prince.

Gu Wanning smiled at the corner of her lips, drank a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and her hand habitually touched the ring on the middle finger of her right hand: "The snow can't fall all the time, maybe it will stop as soon as the seventh concubine gets on the sedan chair!" ”

When the ring under her fingertips heard her words, a circle of light flashed, but unlike before, the circle of light was not flashing, but as if it was dazzling, turning in circles, of course, the circle only turned for a moment, and the next second it returned to normal, flashing and flashing.
