Chapter 616 Eunuch Zhang's words are reasonable

Both Shiwu and Xunyi were very calm, especially Shiwu. Although his princess was gentle and kind, she was not a bad person. This woman likes to be clever and will definitely suffer a big loss in a while.

Mingruo looked at Deputy General Cao with a smile: "Send someone to sell this girl to the best flower building in the city. Be sure to buy her a maid with the money she gets."

There is food, accommodation, and someone to use it, perfect!

The charming woman's face changed drastically, and she knelt down and begged for mercy: "Madam, I was wrong...I can put on my hair and make-up...I am willing to be a maid..."

Such a person who wants to be scheming and pretends to be a maid will not be a peace of mind even if he is a maid.

Mingruo waved her hand and asked someone to take her down: "Next..."

There are a few people who are interested in "activating" and are no longer acting like a demon now. More than thirty women in the yard lower their heads and dare not speak.

Mingruo has no time to spend with them: "If you want to leave, stand to the left; if you want to stay, stand to the right.

Let me explain it clearly. If you stay, you have to support yourself with your hands in the future. If you want to get something for nothing, you can leave as soon as possible to save yourself regrets in the future.”

The woman who helped distribute the clothes just now stepped forward: "I want to stay, and these girls also want to stay, but they... are afraid they can't support themselves..."

Mingruo looked at the women who were pointed out, two young and three looked stupid.

"You can take them with you, and you don't have to do anything about food and clothing, but you have to take care of others yourself." Ming Ruo said.

"I do, thank you madam." The woman knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Mingruo.

"Where are the others?" Ming Ruo swept to the rest of the people again.

In the end, only three people were going to leave. The others were either without relatives or sold by their families and were unwilling to go back.

Mingruo arranged those women and Si Haochen also sorted out the affairs of the prefect's office. A notice was posted outside the government office, and disaster relief grain was distributed in the afternoon at the grain warehouse in the north of the city, and registered with his pocket and household registration. From tomorrow, the price of food in the city will be restored to before the flood.

In addition to the notice outside the government office, the yamen runners also went from street to alleys to inform each household to collect grain. The grain stockpiled in the Gong family's basement was also taken out and transported to Feilai Temple and various disaster victim resettlement sites.

When Zhang Jinliang received the news, the grain warehouse had already started to release grain. He followed the people to the north of the city. The people who had received the grain seemed to be celebrated in the New Year, each of them was full of joy, and their hearts and eyes were full of gratitude and respect for Prince Yun.

Zhang Jinliang's eyes twitched. The emperor wanted to give Prince Yun a charge of unfavorable disaster relief. In just a few days, Prince Yun got the food.

Zhang Jinliang only felt that things could not be done like this. He saw a carriage waiting for business not far away. He got on the carriage and said, "Go to the government office."

The coachman saw that Eunuch Zhang was dry and thin, and his face was pale, just like he hadn't had a meal for several days. He was wearing ordinary clothes, and suspected that he could not afford the fare: "The car fee was three taels of silver."

"How much do you say?" Zhang Jinliang almost stepped on the air and fell from the car. Even in the imperial capital, where every inch of land is valuable, it would not cost a tael of silver to be covered with such a shabby carriage all day.

"Three taels." The coachman saw Zhang Jinliang's surprise appearance and was even more sure that he had no money to pay the fare. "The food is very expensive now, and the horse's forage costs two taels of silver a day."

"Okay, you can send me to the government office and get the car fee." Zhang Jinliang was stolen before, but now he used all food, clothing and food, and he didn't have a single copper coin in his hand.

"That won't work. I'll send you there. If you get into the government office and don't come out, I can't do anything..." He didn't dare to break into the government office and ask for money.

"You..." Zhang Jinliang was so angry that he shivered.

The little eunuch who followed him was sharp-eyed: "Master, the official agent over there seems to be going back to the government office. Let's ask if you can bring us with you?"

Eunuch Zhang walked from the Zhuangyuan Building to the north of the city, but he really couldn't walk anymore. After hearing what the eunuch said, he hurriedly looked for it.

Having seen Prince Yun’s thunderous method of serving as Prefect Cheng, the yamen officers did not dare to neglect them when they heard that they were following Prince Yun. They respectfully asked Eunuch Zhang to get on the bus and headed all the way to the government office.

At this time, the epidemic was basically controlled when Feilai Temple, but the medicinal materials were still insufficient. Shi Zhongcheng was finally able to pull away and report to Prince Yun, and ask when the next batch of medicinal materials would arrive.

Si Haochen estimated the time when several batches of medicinal materials arrived one after another. The two of them made a decision and basically would not stop the medicine.

Zhang Jinliang entered the government office and was taken to the back hall.

Seeing Prince Yun sitting behind the desk to handle official duties, he quickly saluted: "I kowtow to Prince Yun and meet Lord Shi."

The old eunuch didn't stay in the inn, so why did he go to the government office to do? Si Haochen was too lazy to pay attention to him, and Shi Zhongcheng politely returned the gift.

"Your Highness, the emperor has sent someone to try the case of the corruption of the prefect of Xunzhou. Before the Lords of the Three Laws came, the food and money were considered 'physical evidence', so it is not easy to use it at will, right?" Zhang Jinliang thought that the people sent by the emperor to find out the case and distribute food. The people must be the best of the emperor. It is impossible to let Prince Yun gain this good reputation.

"Oh..." Si Haochen pondered, "Eunuch Zhang's words are reasonable!"

Seeing the look that Prince Yun gave him, Shi Zhongcheng immediately understood and knelt down on the ground: "I beg your highness to think twice. Now the Lord of the Three Laws is still unknown. The disaster in Xunzhou is so serious. Even if you release food one hour later, you will starve many people to death.

Besides, if the money is not allocated to pay the deposit, the drug dealer would not have shipped to deliver the medicine. Now is the critical moment for controlling the epidemic, and the consequences of cutting off the medicine are unimaginable..."

"The disaster is indeed urgent, but Eunuch Zhang is the most useful person around His Majesty, and he must be the one who can understand the saint's will the most." Si Haochen curled a smile on his lips, "'All the king's land is under the world, and the shores of the earth is the king's minister', I really don't want to interfere in the affairs...

Lord Shi, you will write a notice now, and say that the emperor's imperial envoy assigned to investigate the case has not arrived yet. I have made a favourite decision to send food and asked the people to return all the disaster relief grain they received, and the food price will not be reduced for the time being..."

Before Shi Zhongcheng could answer, Zhang Jinliang knelt on the ground with a thud: "I was so sad that I was so worried about the lard. I beg the prince not to listen to my nonsense... I delayed the serious business..."

Zhang Jinliang crawled on the ground, and the cold sweat on his head fell to the ground. If this notice was really posted, what do the people think of the emperor? Zhang Jinliang completely recognized the reality and fought with Prince Yun, and he could not even fight with a hundred people.

Si Haochen waved his hand: "I can't handle the matter seriously. Don't get in front of me if you have nothing to do."

"I've recorded it." Seeing that he almost made a big mistake, Zhang Jinliang's legs were shaking when he walked.
