Chapter 247 I wonder what Lord Bai thinks of Yun Tanhua?
The emperor then turned to the Grand Marshal and said, "Grand Marshal, take the food for the disaster relief and go to Dongchang Prefecture immediately. The Imperial Preceptor should also go with you to pray for rain. If it doesn't rain in Dongchang Prefecture, the Imperial Preceptor should not return!"
The Grand Marshal: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Imperial Master: "I obey your orders!"
The second prince was worried, wondering whether the imperial teacher would be able to come back for their wedding.
The Third Prince stepped forward again and said, "Father, there are so many disaster victims gathering at the city gates. How should we accommodate them? I'm afraid things will change if we wait too long."
Everyone started whispering to each other.
This is fatal. If more of these disaster victims gather together, we will be under the feet of the emperor.
[Third brother was right to worry. These people are indeed followers of the White Lotus Sect. The fairy lady wanted to rebel, so she had people planted among the disaster victims to stir up public opinion. This way, when their people reached the capital, they would be able to move forward with unstoppable force. Fortunately, Third brother was smart and didn't let them enter the city.]
The third prince was so happy when he heard his sister praising him.
The imperial sister can speak, so please speak more.
The Emperor said, "The Third Prince is right. We need to deal with the disaster victims outside the capital as soon as possible. What solutions do you have?"
Grand Tutor: "Your Majesty, we must comfort the victims. If they gather outside the city for a long time, I'm afraid that a commotion will affect the stability of the city."
"Old Taishi, what you're saying is just nonsense. By the time you figured out a solution, the victims would have already stormed the city. My mother wasn't even quick enough to respond. She had Madam Jin set up a porridge stall outside the city, and the victims were already lining up to get food. My mother is so smart!"
No one expected that it was arranged by the Queen.
At this time, someone else came to report.
"Your Majesty, the Empress heard that there were many refugees outside the city, so she called on everyone to set up many porridge stalls outside the city gate. Now many noble ladies and merchants in the capital have rushed to the city gate, and the victims outside the city gate are waiting in an orderly manner for the porridge."
The emperor was delighted: "Well done, Queen."
The Queen's action truly reflects the spirit of a model mother to the country.
The Emperor said: "Besides this, the Minister of Revenue will allocate some silver from the national treasury to properly resettle the victims. If there is any mistake again, you will be beheaded!"
When the Minister of Revenue heard that his merits could atone for his crimes, he knelt down and said, "Yes, I will go and supervise this matter right away!"
But this matter was of great importance, so the emperor left the prime minister and others behind and went directly to the imperial study.
The emperor arranged for someone to take Long Xianxian to the queen's place first.
The queen had just rested for a while.
Yu Shu: "Empress, someone outside the palace just replied saying that everything has been arranged as you requested."
The Queen said, "I never thought this was true. I don't know if the rumors are true. Those people are so insidious. Fortunately, I discovered it early. Otherwise, when His Majesty leaves the court, Xianxian's reputation will be ruined!"
The queen knew that people's words were scary.
If that time really comes, all the civil and military officials will definitely protect His Majesty and sell his daughter.
The Queen dared not gamble.
At this moment, Long Xianxian came back.
【Mom, mom, your little cutie is back! 】
Seeing that Long Xianxian was still happy, the queen hurriedly hugged her and kissed her on the cheek.
"Xianxian, please let mother take a look."
[Mother, Xianxian is very good. Mother, you are so amazing. Thanks to you for sending people to distribute porridge, the people felt that they were not abandoned, so no words were said that were detrimental to the emperor. Mother, you are really amazing.]
The queen smiled and looked at her silly daughter. She was not doing this for the emperor, but for her fairy.
Noticing that the Emperor hadn't arrived, the Empress asked, "Is Your Majesty still coming to Kunning Palace for dinner?"
Nanny: "Your Majesty, His Majesty has gone to the Imperial Study with several ministers."
That’s true. After all, the east is still in chaos.
Queen: "Then let's have lunch first!"
Today's lunch was fruit porridge, which Long Xianxian liked very much and ate with great relish.
When Long Xianxian was about to finish her meal, Mrs. Jin came with Miss Yun and Bai Jinxi.
Madam Jin said, "Your Majesty, Lord Bai is in charge of running a girls' school and is looking for sponsors. Your Majesty, this matter requires a leader. I dare not act rashly, so I have brought Lord Bai to discuss this matter with Your Majesty."
Bai Jinxi: "Empress, it's been a long time since we last met. You are still so radiant."
The Queen: "Since leaving the palace, Lord Bai has become more talkative. A few days ago, the Queen Mother had a grand wedding and invited you, but you didn't come."
Bai Jinxi: "Your Majesty, I am no longer a member of the harem."
Yun Qianxun smiled and said, "Master Bai is considerate of thousands of women. He is a role model for us. Qianxun admires him very much."
Queen: "Let's talk inside."
Long Xianxian came over happily.
[Sister Bai, we meet again. Don't worry, my mother will definitely help you.]
Bai Jinxi quickly squatted down: "Your Highness, you have grown so tall."
In the court, His Majesty was holding Long Xianxian on the dragon throne. It was hard to see clearly. If you looked closer, the princess would run away.
When she left the palace before, the little princess was still in her cradle.
Yu Shu served tea: "Master Bai, you don't know that the little princess changes every day."
[Yes, yes, I may have eaten it now. It won't be long before I can practice martial arts.]
Bai Jinxi couldn't help but pick up the little princess and gave her a kiss.
The queen smiled and said, "Since you like children so much, you should have one too."
Bai Jinxi blushed suddenly. She remembered what the little princess had said before, that Yun Qianhe liked her?
Seeing her like this, the Queen couldn't help but ask, "Does Lord Bai have someone he likes?"
Bai Jinxi: "No, Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me!"
[Mom, Mom, I'm telling you a secret. There's someone who likes Sister Bai. He's Sister Yun's older brother, but I don't know if Sister Bai likes him!]
When Yun Qianxun heard this, he quickly stood up.
"Master Bai, my eldest brother is still unmarried. He is handsome and talented. He and Master Bai are both candidates for the same exam. My family is worried about his marriage. I wonder what Master Bai thinks of my eldest brother!"
I have to say that the daughter of the Yun family is very smart.
[Thank goodness Yun Qianhe has such a sister. She's such a great helper. Sister Bai, why don't you consider it? Yun Qianhe is quite good-looking. It's much better for you to find a good-looking one than an ugly one. If he makes you angry in the future, you can look at his face and calm down!]
The queen didn't expect her daughter to say everything she wanted to say.
The Queen: "Since Miss Yun has said so, I am willing to act as a matchmaker. I wonder what Master Bai thinks of Yun Tanhua?"
Bai Jinxi didn't expect that before they even discussed the main business, everyone started to care about her marriage.
Bai Jinxi: "Your Majesty, I am determined to serve in the imperial court. This matter... I will not consider for the time being!"
The Queen's eyebrows turned, knowing that Bai Jinxi was pretending not to care: "That's a pity. I was thinking of telling Lord Bai, but since this is the case, my aunt has a younger sister, so I'll tell my younger sister."
When Bai Jinxi heard this, her face turned pale.
