The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 155 People’s Heart
Cang Lang quickly turned around: "Master asked us to stay and assist the eldest princess and the girl, and then escort the eldest princess and the girl back to the house."

"Thank you." Lu Wan was not polite. After all, the scene just now scared her, not to mention that Li Yuyi was still there.

Lu Wan looked at Li Yuyi: "Sister Yuyi, why are you back again?"

Li Yuyi held her back: "You have good intentions. My queen mother cares about the people of the world, but I can't just think about myself and my own face."

After that, he opened the cotton curtain and walked out.

Lu Wan looked at her back and couldn't tell whether she was sad or happy, and hurriedly followed her out.

The people below who were receiving porridge and steamed buns looked up and saw two noble women appearing, and they were all silent for a moment.

After the commotion of the group just now, the people already knew that the person who had given them porridge was actually the eldest princess of the dynasty.

Li Yuyi stepped forward, clasped his hands together and raised them to his head, and gave a formal salute to the people.

Lu Wan also followed suit and bowed solemnly.

The people in front were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and shouted that they had seen the eldest princess.

Only then did the people behind see it really, it was really the eldest princess who was saluting in person, and they quickly cheered and people in rows knelt down.

Li Yuyi's eyes suddenly turned red. How could she be so virtuous as to be able to accept the great gift from the people of the world?

He raised his arms quickly and said in a loud voice: "Get up quickly, there is no need to salute."

But the people refused to get up.

"The empress and the eldest princess are kind and virtuous, so that the common people can get a porridge to satisfy their hunger. The common people thank the empress and the eldest princess for their great kindness."

Someone started, and people behind him sang their thanksgivings one after another.

Li Yuyi couldn't help but burst into tears, and squatted down slowly again: "As a princess, I can't relieve the suffering of the people, and I have no face to accept this gift. Please get up."

Lu Wan stepped forward to help Li Yuyi up and said loudly: "Everyone, get up quickly. The eldest princess is here in person to help everyone personally and understand the people's sentiments."

Li Yuyi wiped away her tears and said, "Yes, just tell me if you have any difficulties."

She turned to the female officer beside her and ordered: "Sui Ru, write down every note clearly."

The female official Sui Ru hurriedly asked someone to lay out pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

The people then stood up one after another and told their own misery.

The more Li Yuyi heard about it, the darker his face became. He did not expect that the local officials in various places were so inactive. They concealed it for the sake of political performance despite the serious disaster. They even ignored the fact that the people had no food to keep out the cold or rice to eat in winter, and prevented the people from fleeing.

There are also excuses to control the grain supply, and collude with profiteers to raise the price of grain and materials, making the people unable to buy and causing their families to starve and freeze to death.

This was also the first time Lu Wan heard that man-made disasters caused by the cold disaster were so serious.

Natural disasters happen every year, but if you are well prepared, they can be controlled.

Li Yuyi frowned. She never expected that what the fleeing victims would say would be major matters involving the imperial court. As a princess, she could not be involved in politics.

"Princess, Miss Lu, we are here." A crisp voice came.

Lu Wan and Li Yuyi followed the news, and Tang Xuanyan came over with several young masters and several carts of things.

Tang Xuanyan ran over happily and whispered in her ear: "Am I very fast? You see, they all said they would come to help, and they also brought all the pure grain and cash from home."

The princes all stepped forward to salute Li Yuyi.

Li Yuyi said happily: "Quickly excuse me."

Upon closer inspection, I discovered that several of them were actually girls.

The girls looked at the eldest princess, their pretty faces flushed with excitement, each of them held a brocade bag with both hands and gave it to Sui Ru, and whispered something.

Li Yuyi was surprised: "What is this?"

Lu Wan stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "It's the silver donated by their family."

Li Yuyi nodded moved: "I have written it all down, and I will definitely remember your contribution afterwards."

The girl saluted and thanked her ecstatically.

As a noble daughter, it is a great honor to bring honor to the family. If they are favored by the eldest princess, their status in the palace will also rise. Therefore, Tang Xuanyan told them in a hurry that she would come to help the eldest princess in the disaster relief, saying that she would allow the eldest princess to record a meritorious deed for them. They all hurriedly went to each mother to discuss whether those who could get food would get food and those who could provide money. Out of silver.

Lu Wan was worried that the girls would be seen by the people, causing unnecessary trouble and affecting their reputation, so she hurriedly asked them to come into the house to help the servants pile up the food they brought, and then helped in the backyard. The cooks are mixing noodles to make steamed buns.

Only Tang Xuanyan refused to go in, pulling Lu Wan tightly and refusing to let go: "I'll be where you are, and I'm wearing men's clothes anyway."

Lu Wan: "..."

What do you mean by holding my arm tightly?
There were two young masters who came with Tang Xuanyan but never dared to come forward and speak.

One of them stared at Lu Wan.

She was wearing a sky-blue robe and a gray cotton cape. A wooden chopstick was used to tie her black hair, and a few strands of fallen hair were falling, adding a bit of charm to her beautiful face.

Especially her pair of almond-shaped eyes, which were bright and charming at the same time as she rolled her eyes at Tang Xuanyan.

Lu Wan noticed someone looking at her and looked over.

She didn't recognize him, but she felt familiar.

Anyone who comes with Tang Xuanyan must be someone she knows well and is willing to help her, and Lu Wan will naturally not neglect her.

She smiled brightly at the man and nodded.

The man was suddenly caught in sight. He turned his head reflexively and was fascinated by the girl's bright smile. He suddenly felt that he was too rude and embarrassed. He quickly turned around and grinned at Lu Wan with a white tooth.

Li Yuyi noticed Lu Wan's gaze and looked over. Suddenly his eyes lit up: "Are you Tang Qijun? I remember that you are the Fengzhong of the Ministry of Personnel? Are you in charge of official matters? After my father praised you as the Crown Prince of Xie, did you show up? A talented young man.”

This is Tang Xuanyan's eldest brother Tang Qijun.

Being praised by the eldest princess in public, his face immediately turned red and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Weijun Tang Qijun has met the eldest princess."

Li Yuyi was overjoyed: "Just in time, we have accepted the people's complaints against the various state governments for their inaction in disaster relief. I'd trouble Mr. Tang to submit them to Datian for listening."

"Yes, I obey." Tang Qijun respectfully took the document handed over by Sui Ru.

He came first because his sister praised Lu Wan so much that he had always been curious about her. Secondly, he heard that the eldest princess was providing disaster relief. He was responsible for reviewing the situation of officials in various states affected by the disaster, so he came to take a look.

Another young master also took the initiative to step forward: "Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is serving the censor Jin Yuxian in the censor's platform of the lower hall. I am willing to report to the court together with Mr. Tang to strictly investigate corrupt officials!"

Li Yuyi was so happy when he heard this: "That's great, thank you two adults."

One official and one censor, although their official positions are not high, they are the chokepoints of officials from various states.

Lu Wan looked at the two of them curiously.

Tang Xuanyan blinked at Lu Wan and whispered: "Thanks to my credit, brother Jin and my brother happened to be discussing things, so I dragged them over directly."

Hearing Tang Xuanyan call Brother Jin shows that the two families have a good relationship.

Lu Wan gave her a thumbs up.

She looked at Tang Qijun again. The eldest princess said that a talented young man appeared after the emperor praised him as Prince Xie, but why did his smile just now look a bit silly?

Tang Qijun peeked at Lu Wan, and happened to meet her eyes again. His face turned even redder, especially his ears, which were like two red-hot coals.

Holding the document Sui Ru gave him in his hand, his eyes were so nervous that he didn't know where to look.

Tang Xuanyan looked at her silly brother and was speechless: "Brother, why don't you pay tribute to your future cousin-in-law?"

Tang Qijun was startled and glared at his sister evilly.

What future sister-in-law? Xie Zhiyan died, could it be that he had to forcefully tie up a young girl like a flower and ruin her life?

What a silly sister.

Then he raised his hands towards Lu Wan and said, "I have met Miss Lu, Tang Qijun."

Tang Xuanyan pouted and nuzzled towards Jin Yuxian: "Wan'er, this is Jin Yuxian, the eldest son of Lord Jin, the imperial censor."

Jin Yuxian quickly raised his hands and saluted.

Lu Wan was a little more respectful when she heard this and bent down to return the favor.

She suddenly felt a gaze staring at her. She followed the feeling and looked over. Unexpectedly, it was Xie Huaiyu.
