Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 355
Hearing this, Yuliu replied, "Yes, ma'am, but when we settled the accounts just now, Jia Zhaoyi and the empress dowager have ordered people to bring the money over."

Nodding his head, Shang Kelan threw the white paper in his hand into the stove and burned it: "Understood, go and see if the people from the imperial dining room have brought lunch."

Yuliu bowed her head and said, "I want to tell you, Ma'am, just now, Director Caifu ordered someone to come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. His Majesty will not be coming to the Hall of Mental Cultivation recently. Lunch is served in the Imperial Study Room."

Hearing this, Shang Kelan paused for a moment, and then said: "Okay, how are Zhizi and Zhiqiu at the Leng Palace?"

"Zhizi and Zhiqiu's injuries are gradually recovering. The servants specially arranged them to stay in the Qingqiu courtyard away from Concubine Ning and Concubine Hua. No one will trouble them."

Hearing what Yuliu said, the darkness in Shang Kelan's eyes faded slightly.

Afterwards, Yuliu told Shang Kelan about going to Zuoxiang's mansion tomorrow, and the two counted the congratulatory gifts back and forth, and the whole morning passed like this.

At this time, outside the palace.

Zhao Kehan ​​got the queen mother's permission, so he came to the shantang on the outskirts of the city in the clothes of ordinary people.

Several guards followed behind her, with serious expressions and tall and straight figures, making people afraid to approach Zhao Kehan.

This shantang was rebuilt from a ruined temple. It looked as big as the mansion of a wealthy family in the capital. The vermilion sign at the door said "Shantang".

Zhao Kehan ​​was wearing a light red jacket and skirt and a white cloak, holding a stove in his hand, his hair was coiled up high, and he was wearing a white jade pear flower hairpin, looking simple and elegant.

Seeing her calm expression, she said to Xinrui beside her, "Xinrui, go knock on the door."

"Yes."

Xinrui came to the door in response, knocked the knocker and bumped the door, but just after knocking twice, an old man in common clothes came to open the door for them.

Xinrui was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses, and said to the old man in a friendly manner: "Old man, my wife has always been kind and generous. I heard that there is a charity hall here, so I came here to see if I can help everyone."

The commoner man hurriedly lowered his head, and said humbly: "Madam please, the children are eating at the moment, the place is simple, please don't blame Madam."

Nodding to the old man, Zhao Kehan ​​smiled and said, "I came to visit rashly, it should be the little lady who disturbed me."

As she spoke, she stepped into the shantang, and just glanced down at the muddy land, and a look of disgust flashed across Zhao Kehan's eyes.

In the yard, more than a dozen children gathered together to play. Seeing the old man in common clothes come in, they rushed over and asked, "Grandpa, grandpa, who is here? Is it Uncle Tieniu?"

The clothed old man waved to them, and hurriedly said: "Go, go, go and play, Da Zhuang, go and bring chairs for Madam, and let these guests sit for a while."

"Okay, Grandpa!"

As soon as the words fell, a tall and thin boy ran into the house next to the lobby.

Let Zhao Kehan ​​sit down in this muddy yard, but she is not willing.

But Zhao Kehan ​​suppressed his nausea and asked with a smile: "Old man, why don't you talk in the lobby?"

The old man in commoner sighed, with a sad expression on his face: "Oh, all the children in this shantang got wind and cold, and they were infected one by one. In severe cases, several children have died. Tie Niu and I have nothing to do, so we can't help it." The sick children are placed in the lobby, and the room next to them is where these children usually sleep."

Hearing this, the smile on Zhao Kehan's face was a little stiff, but in order to get Jin Yantang's favor, she showed pity and said to the old man: "It's really embarrassing for you. Pray to Buddha, if you have any difficulties, just ask me, by the way, my surname is Zhao, I don’t know how to call the old man?”

The commoner man was a little surprised and a little embarrassed.

He hurriedly bowed his head and said, "This...how dare you do this? Ma'am, we are just lowly peasants, and I dare not bother you to do this."

Zhao Kehan ​​secretly glanced at Xinrui, his eyes were cold, Xinrui was all excited, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the old man and said: "Old man, don't be polite to our wife, our wife is the most kind-hearted, and I don't see these people's sufferings. It is a hand that can help!"

Only then did the commoner man hesitate and straighten up, and then said respectfully to Zhao Kehan: "Well, thank you Madam, the little old man's surname is Li, and I can't even remember his name after living so long, everyone calls me Lao Li. "

Zhao Kehan ​​didn't show any disgust, but just looked at him and nodded: "Okay, Grandpa Li, this is my personal maid, Xinrui."

Xinrui greeted Lao Li again.

Lao Li was flattered, and hurriedly nodded to Xinrui.

The children next to them looked at them curiously, but they were obedient and did not step forward to disturb them.

Zhao Kehan ​​smiled slightly and said: "I think this shantang is well repaired, but if the children in the lobby drag their illnesses like this, it will only make the situation worse. I'll ask Xinrui to invite some doctors over."

Old Li was stunned for a moment, and quickly waved his hand to Zhao Kehan, saying: "No, no, how can you bother Madam? Tieniu asks the doctor to see the children every day, and dare not let Madam spend money, besides, Madam gave birth to a doctor. So good-looking, so kind-hearted, after a long time, your master will definitely be worried!"

On the side, those people in the group of children discussed: "Did you hear that, this beautiful lady wants to invite a doctor to treat our little friend!"

"Yeah, she's such a nice person!"

At this time, Da Zhuang looked at them with disdain and said, "Hmph, when we were living on the streets and were about to die of starvation and disease, Brother Tieniu rescued us and came back. These good people didn't do anything. Nice guy?"

"Everyone is selfish. I don't believe that other than Big Brother Tieniu and Sister Wanqin, there will be other people who are kind to us. Those rich people in the capital are not so kind!"

Hearing this, the children all nodded and said: "Oh, it's a pity that sister Wanqin can only come once every half a month. Brother Tieniu has never seen sister Wanqin once!"

These people discussed in low voices, and stopped paying attention to Zhao Kehan ​​and Lao Li's movements. They are all children who have experienced the warmth and coldness of the world, good and evil outside.

I don't know what Lao Li and Zhao Kehan ​​said, but Lao Li sent Zhao Kehan ​​to the door with gratitude on his face, and said: "If this can be done, the madam has accumulated a lot of kindness! The villain and the children will love you!" You can't thank you enough!"

Xinrui helped him up again, and said: "Don't be so polite, old man. My wife's doing good deeds is also for the sake of my master's safety and well-being. Everything goes well. You don't have to be so polite. Besides, if a life is in front of my wife, she would I won’t be left to die.”

Old Li couldn't stop crying when he heard this, he was happy and grateful and said: "Okay, okay, then the villain will send Madam here, Madam be careful on the way!"

Seeing that he was about to bend down to salute again, Zhao Kehan ​​raised his hand and said: "You don't need to be too polite, this is what I should do. The little lady will take her leave first, and come back tomorrow."

"Yes, yes, ma'am, go slowly!"
