After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 91

The number of second-hand quilts, cotton clothes and shoes that Guanshi bought from various pawnshops was not too large, so Gu Wanning asked people to pick up some that were eliminated from the palace and sent them to the mansion outside.

Feng Xinrou communicated with the family again, and sent all the cotton clothes and quilts that the family eliminated in the past to the victims.

Soon, nearly 300 people lived in the shelter, and there was no place to live when more victims came. Bai Guanshi continued to rent a place, and within four or five days, nearly [-] people were accommodated.

Then it was time for these people to go to work formally. A batch of prudent cleaned ones were selected and sent to grind medicinal materials, and then made into pills, which were sent directly to Dejitang.

The heavy snow caused many people in central Beijing to catch the wind and cold. There was a queue in front of the pharmacy to see a doctor, and the doctors were too busy.

Since the pill was available, the doctor in the pharmacy only needs to diagnose the pulse of the patients, and then sell the pills to those patients. The pills are convenient and quick to take, but it took two or three days to gain a reputation, and then the supply exceeded demand every day.

Some women who are good at needlework make gloves, fur scarves and hats, and some people are strong enough and have a lot of strength. The white manager will let these people go out to help those who have problems with their houses to build temporary housing. awning.

There are also some people who have no skills and can't do heavy work. Gu Wanning asked them to boil ginger soup on the street to keep out the cold for the soldiers who came and went on patrol.

The remaining few people are responsible for the logistics. In short, everyone has work to do. When they can rest at night, these people can deduct their own food money for the day and still have money to spend. They can live a very stable life. They originally planned to stay at home People who live in the house and then go out to get free porridge have given up their minds. After all, they are paid according to their work.

The dark guard understood what was going on here, and immediately entered the palace.

……

In Chaoyang Palace, the emperor looked at the soup at his hand with strange thoughts in his heart. He glanced at Li Changhai twice, and Li Changhai was stunned. Then he asked, "What's the matter with this soup?"

Li Changhai was so smart that he knelt down and explained: "This is hericium erinaceus pork belly, party ginseng and yam soup. It nourishes the stomach. Your majesty, please try it."

The emperor stared: "Is that what I asked? Why do you always serve me soup these days?"

Li Changhai shuddered, "My Majesty, my servant, I heard from Prince Yu that drinking tea affects sleep, and drinking soup has many benefits..."

"When did he tell you this?"

Li Changhai took a careful look at the emperor's face and saw that the emperor didn't look angry, so he carefully repeated what King Yu said: "The king of Yu said: Father loves the people like a son, and the snow doesn't stop all day long. He only worries about it all day long, and Mr. Li has to worry more about it. In the small kitchen, you can always keep some soup to keep the cold and nourish the stomach. Drinking soup is better than drinking tea. Drinking tea is easy to cause insomnia. When it is time to eat Director Li didn't have to wait for the father to speak, he directly brought up the dishes and arranged them, the father is the most frugal and can't bear to waste food..."

Not only did he repeat the words exactly as they were, but even Ye Hanyu's tone was imitated by eight or nine points. The emperor laughed when he heard it, "I just said, why are you so bold lately, you old bastard?" , Alright, alright, stop kneeling, kneeling is lame, who will serve me soup in the future."

Li Changhai wiped the sweat off his forehead. The emperor said that he would have to serve soup in the future, so he didn’t care about it. He just said, as long as the emperor knows that these things were arranged by King Yujun, he can only be happy No matter what, he will never be punished.

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

The emperor was very happy in his heart, and the secret guard in front of him was really good at handling things, so he directly asked Li Changhai to reward him with 50 taels of silver, and then follow suit, don't you want to be full?
Then let's work, the snow has stopped for several days during this period, and the soldiers are also exhausted, just for the caravans to transport food into the capital, they have to clean the official roads every day.

Simply, let these free-living victims do this job.

Wherever you receive porridge for disaster relief, you can work there, and the victims have nothing to do. In the past, you gave out a bowl of porridge a day. It doesn’t matter whether you are full or hungry.

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

If you don't do it, you will only be hungry.

In this way, the capital became much cleaner all of a sudden, because the wandering victims could no longer be seen, and they were all taken away to work.

……

Concubine Xia is very anxious these days, and there are two days before she will marry her daughter-in-law, but now the snow is still falling, and she has no intention of stopping at all.

Under such circumstances, she didn't dare to make her son's wedding ceremony too grand. She wanted to change the date of marriage with the emperor, but the Ministry of Rites had been preparing for half a year, so how could she agree to reschedule without authorization.

In the end, it was the Seventh Prince who made the final decision, and the wedding was still held as scheduled, and it was time to try to gain a sense of presence in front of his father.

Did that inexplicable assignment make him think too much...

The Fifth Prince Concubine didn't know what gift the Seventh Prince was going to give to marry the Zheng Concubine, so she came to discuss with Gu Wanning, Gu Wanning said: "I went through the gift list when I married our Lord yesterday, and those gifts were probably worth a few hundred taels of silver. It looks like, I don’t plan to give more, just prepare according to this price.”

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

So, if you want to find out who has a good relationship with whom, you just need to look through the list of gifts. It turns out that Ye Moying and Ye Hanyu are the two poorest princes in the palace, but Ye Moying's gift is the worst. precious.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, I'll also look through those gift lists, and then find some good-looking but impractical things to send to Lao Qi."

She married in earlier, and knew a little more about Lao Qi, so she could feel that Ye Moying didn't like Lao Qi very much, so the gift naturally didn't need to cost too much.

"Speaking of which, Lao Qi is also unlucky. The big day of marriage happened to catch up with the heavy snow. Otherwise, his wedding banquet should be the most lively among all the princes."

Concubine Xia has a prominent family background and is quite favored. Many ministers in the court secretly took refuge in the Seventh Prince.

With a smile on Gu Wanning's lips, she took a sip of the fragrant tea, put down the teacup, and habitually touched the ring on the middle finger of her right hand: "It's impossible for the snow to fall all the time. It stopped!"

The ring under her fingertips flashed a circle of light when she heard her words, but the difference was that the circle of light did not flicker, but turned around like a dizzy, of course, the circle just turned around. In a flash, in the next second, it returned to normal, flash after flash.
