Yipin Tianxia

It snowed heavily for three days and three nights, and it didn't stop until the morning of the fourth day.

The entire capital, as far as the eye can see, seems to be covered by a thick snow quilt, pure white, beautiful, but cold to the heart.

Nianfu's business lasted for three full days, but the old customers were very understanding of their hard work, and most of them would prepare two meals at noon so that they could go back early to avoid the cold.

But such persistence is considered rare in the entire Beishi, and even the entire capital.So much so that the place where the Zhujia Food Shop set up a stall was always quietly cleaned, and the thick snow was shoveled aside to make their business easier.

Everyone's love and blessings are in their hearts, so seeing the snow stop this day, they are even more happy to push the cart and go out to set up a stall.After three days in the blizzard, everyone is already quite experienced. Wrapping hemp rope and straw on the wheels, and putting a layer of straw sandals on the cotton boots can not only keep you warm, but also prevent you from falling down when walking.

He happily pushed the cart to Beishi, but unexpectedly found that there were a large number of refugees gathered on the cleaned site of his shop.Everyone was shivering from the cold, their faces were blue and their noses were red, and they gathered like ants in a slightly cleaner and warmer place, praying for a little warmth.

Everyone couldn't help being stunned, standing there not knowing whether to advance or retreat, but looking at the food and vegetables in their carts, the eyes of the refugees were unusually bright!It was like seeing a handful of fire, and I couldn't move my eyes.

Until, someone boldly stepped forward, stretched out a hand with no gloves and frostbite, begging humblely. "Give me something to eat. Please, give me something to eat."

As a result, more people gathered around, repeating the same actions and saying the same words, "Give me something to eat."

"Go away! We are here to do business, not to do good deeds." Zhong Shan suddenly put on a cold face, pushed an old man beside him away a little roughly, and then shouted at the refugees who occupied their territory. "Get out of the way! This is the place our family rented for business. You have to beg and go elsewhere. Don't occupy our place here."

Maybe in the end, I still feel that I am unreasonable, so the more than 100 ordinary people entrenched here slowly got up and walked away.

Let people set up a greenhouse and prepare to start business, Zhong Shan came to explain to Nianfu in a low voice. "Sister, I really can't be soft-hearted. Otherwise, there will be big troubles."

Seeing the unbearable look in Nianfu's eyes, some big beggars who worked in the food shop said with a bit of embarrassment, "It's like in the past, when we were hungry sometimes, and when we met kind people who gave us alms, we would take the things on his body. Snatched..."

Everyone wants to be a good person, but in some specific time, place or occasion.The fate of being a good person is not necessarily too good.

Nianfu asked herself that she didn't have the ability to bear such consequences, so she could only sigh and said nothing.

When the fire was lit, the aroma of food slowly rose, and some regular customers came over, but there were also more refugees around, looking at them with hungry eyes.Such begging and pitiful.

Nianfu couldn't bear to see it, she was just a common people.She is not a god, she cannot be a savior.Shouldn't the person who should really be responsible for these refugees be in the palace or in the court?What about them?

Ouyang Kang took advantage of the snow to stop today and went to the palace to inquire about news.He also brought a large bag of home-cooked food and a change of clothes for Su Cheng, thinking that even if the emperor was still angry, receiving the dirty clothes he changed would prove that he was safe and sound?

In the end, he was disappointed.

The little eunuchs in the palace didn't know who was instigating them, and when they heard that they wanted to find Su Cheng, they all shook their heads and refused to agree.No matter how much money Wang Can took out, they shook their heads and said, "My lord, please don't make things difficult for us. Last time, Xiao Haizi was punished and transferred to another place for helping you deliver things. If you have something to say, the emperor wants Mr. Su to do things with peace of mind, and no one is allowed to disturb him."

Wang Can was anxious, "Then I'll go see the emperor!"

But the emperor is not in the palace at all, so how can he see it?

The great eunuch Cheng Ping was one of the few insiders, and led a group of guards to guard Gao Xian's bedroom like an iron wall. Not to mention Wang Can, even if Concubine Zheng came several times, she was mercilessly blocked back .

"I want to see my father!" Shouning ran to Renshou Palace with tears in his eyes, crying and acting like a baby, but Empress Dowager Mu, who has always been tolerant and loving to her children and grandchildren, did not scold Shouning, but called Zheng Guifei to severely reprimand, "The emperor is sick. , It’s the time to have a good life, how can you stand up to the crying of a child like this? As the mother and concubine of the princess, you have done your duty by taking care of the princess at this time, keeping yourself in check, and not making trouble for the emperor. Go to the bedroom and make trouble, and see how the Ai family punishes you!"

Concubine Zheng was extremely wronged, "The concubine also cares about the emperor..."

Empress Dowager Mu snorted coldly, "You care about the emperor? Then what can you do when you see the emperor? Do you know how to see a doctor or take pulse? Could it be that you are still missing in the palace to bring tea and water?"

Concubine Zheng was scolded bloody, and took Shouning away in desperation.

After a while, the king of Chu and the king of Qi also made an appointment to visit his father.

The Empress Dowager Mu was a little more polite to them, "Your father is fine, but he suffered from some old problems when he was fighting the world, and the root cause of the disease was caused by the wind and cold. Guard the bedroom and let no one disturb it, let the emperor use this opportunity to heal the root cause. Your filial piety and the emperor know about it, but now is not the time for you to be anxious."

I don't know if King Chu understands the deep meaning of these words, but King Qi does.So he said, "Since the emperor's grandmother said so, the grandson can rest assured, but the heavy snow has just stopped, and I heard that there are many refugees in the capital, all of whom are disaster-stricken people nearby, I am afraid that we must quickly start disaster relief. .”

Empress Dowager Mu hummed, showing three points of satisfaction, "Yes, this is what we should worry about. The emperor is sick, and you brothers should set an example, so that your father, the emperor, taught you all the time. Work hard. Go back and prepare, the Ai family has already asked people to prepare the porridge, and you brothers must do your best by then."

yes.After agreeing to leave the palace, King Chu looked at Gao Xian's bedroom from a distance, and asked his younger brother suspiciously, "Father has always been physically strong, when did this cause the root of the disease?"

This is not what they should ask, King Qi shook his head and did not answer, only going back to prepare for disaster relief.

King Jin, who was grounded, of course also received the news from the palace. Compared with the loyal King Chu and the deep King Qi, his mind is obviously much more active than this brother.

"Father is sick? Still ignore the government? This has never happened before. Could it be..."

Minye, the eldest brother-in-law of the side concubine's family, shook his head, "The situation is unclear, so we can't act rashly at this time."

"Then...wouldn't we have lost the opportunity?"

"Probably not. If there were any changes, the palace should have sent a certain prince to enter the palace to wait. But now several older princes are all outside the palace, and some underage princes in the palace are not enough foundation. Just push it out casually? Your Highness might as well take this opportunity to please the Queen Mother. No matter what is going on with the Emperor, the Queen Mother must be well aware of it. If you get the support of the Queen Mother, your future road will be much smoother .”

King Jin nodded his head in praise, but he was annoyed, "But the emperor banned my feet and didn't allow me to go out. He just wanted to please me, but what's the use if I can't go out?"

But Min Ye said, "Your Highness's words are wrong. Now that the disaster is just beginning to emerge, it is time for princes, princes and ministers to contribute. Why don't Your Highness put on a gesture and order the mansion to open warehouses to release grain, and set an example? But flattering the Queen Mother can also build popularity."

ah?King Jin was a little hesitant. He was rich, but he also had the common problem of rich people - stinginess.

It is fine to ask him to serve a few pots of porridge, but he is a little reluctant to ask him to set an example.

"Well... If the father is safe, I've set an example too much, and it seems a little bad. It's better to let the housekeeper arrange the porridge and see the situation."

Seeing his distress, Min Ye felt a little helpless.I thought to myself that if you inherit the great rule, the whole world will be yours, so why do you care about these little money?

But it would be too embarrassing to say such blunt words, so Minye could only quietly talk to the girl, and let her think of blowing the pillow at the right time.

But Concubine Min immediately shook her head when she heard it, "It's fine if it's anything else. For our prince, there are two things. One is beauty, and the other is money. I have to talk too much, and he will despise me. When the time comes If you let me use my private money to set an example for the family, how much can you support me, brother?"

Min Ye choked up, and felt a little reluctant.

Everyone will say the truth, but if you really want to do it, not everyone can do it.

Pingguo government office.

While the snow stopped, Mother Lu hurried home with some money and clothes.

It snowed heavily for three days, and she was so sleepy that she couldn't go out for three whole days, and she didn't know what was going on with her son.She wasn't worried that her son and daughter-in-law would be frozen and hungry, but that her little grandson would be frozen.While Mrs. Tan was in a good mood after receiving the generous gift from Princess Pingguo, she specially asked for a piece of old leather from her. Stuck at home these days, she stared at the needlewoman and hurriedly sewed a set of big woolen clothes for her grandson. , Send it back, and the child can wear it immediately.

It's just that in such a cold weather, there is not even a car hire outside the door. Even if Lu's mother has money, she can only walk back.But not long after walking out, at the back of a secluded alley, suddenly a woman rushed up from behind, "Mother Lu, hello."

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, Lu's mother turned her head in surprise and looked at the woman, "You are..."

The long-faced woman smiled meaningfully, "You are such a nobleman who forgets things, don't you forget, how did you ask me about it in Huai'an Town last year? Oh yes, at that time , your name is not Lu's mother, your name is Zhou's mother."
