Chapter 1535
Du Xiaozhu closed the account book, and only then did Mr. Shang tell her that he had brought several people with him this time.

They were all local gentry and respected elders, and when Du Xiang was doing disaster relief, he also discussed with them about replacing old grain with new grain.

This counts as witnesses.

Du Xiaozhu nodded and agreed to see each other. As soon as Luwu saw this, he and Luluo went into the inner room and lifted a screen out.

Unlike the old acquaintance of Mr. Shang, the rules that should be taught still need to be taught.

In addition to the two confidant girls Luluo and Luwu, Yingsha arranged for two guards to guard the door, and then invited people in.

Du Xiaozhu knew what was going on, and when people came in, he opened his mouth first to avoid the ceremony.

Ask them to choose representatives and explain in detail what happened at the beginning.

Only then did Du Xiaozhu know that in addition to the Wanmin letter presented by Mr. Shang, there was actually a petition signed by all the gentry, asking the court to agree to replace the new grain with the old grain. Within five days, he sent someone to rush to the capital.

At the beginning, just in case, the petition was made in triplicate, one was sent to the capital with the memorial, one was filed in the local yamen, and the other was in the hands of the squire.

It is obvious that the petition has not been sent to the emperor, otherwise it would not be as good as it is now.

"Dare to ask the old man, where is this petition now?"

What Du Xiaozhu asked was of course the share in the hands of the squire. She was sure that not only the petition sent to Beijing would be impossible to retrieve, but even the file in the local government office would be destroyed. .

And Mr. Shang's body trembled when he heard the words, he had no idea that there was such a thing.

I saw one of the squires, who was very inconspicuous among the gentry, step forward, took out a torn linoleum cloth that was not much better than a rag from his arms, carefully opened it, and took out the contents to the screen that had been taken out of the screen. In the hands of Luwu who came out later.

Du Xiaozhu looked at the things in his hands and was speechless for a long time. It seems that the old guy knew that he would be plotted by others for his order to provide disaster relief, and he set up a plan early, waiting for those people to jump out on their own initiative.

Du Xiaozhu said some comforting words again, and asked Yingsha to take them down and resettle them properly, and arrange for people to send them back to their hometown after the matter is over.

After everyone left, Du Xiaozhu had the screen removed.

Walking out of the warm pavilion, leaning over to look down, the footsteps on the silver-white ground looked very messy, just like her current mood.

When the bell rang at midnight, Du Xiaozhu tightened his cloak and turned back to the house.

Luluo stayed to watch the night, looked at Du Xiaozhu who had already undressed and lay down, opened her mouth several times but finally failed to open her mouth, and only held up a candle to rest outside when she was fast asleep.

I don't know when the snow stopped. The footprints left in the courtyard last night have already been covered by heavy snow, as if no one has ever been here.

After eating breakfast in the temple, Mrs. Du resigned as the abbot and went down the mountain with her two daughters.

Just before getting into the carriage, a little novice ran over in a hurry and handed the brocade box in his arms to Du Xiaozhu.

It's just a gift from Master Tianzhi, so please accept it from the princess.

Du Xiaozhu disapprovingly gave the things to Luwu to keep.

When Mrs. Du heard that it was sent by Master Tian Zhi, she asked nervously, "Does Master Tian Zhi have a message?"

The little novice uttered the Buddha's name, and then said, "Master Tianzhi asked the poor monk to tell Donor Du that there are fates in the world. Don't be too forceful, Donor Du, everything will be fine."
