Chapter 603
When the country is in trouble, all sides support it, and when the people are in trouble, the court helps each other.

In less than half a month, under Wei Baojuan's active leadership, many officials' wives and merchants donated money, materials and food to the imperial court. The amount was so large that Su Mianyue was surprised. There are some benefits for others.

Rewards are made according to the number of donations and the actual situation of each family. At this time, real gold and silver are not enough to show grace, so Su Mianyue rewards the wives of officials with imperial orders, and merchants' families receive imperial awards or gold plaques , These are usually not bought with silver.

With the support of the imperial court, the people who were killed quickly cheered up. The funerals were handled uniformly by eminent monks, and the money was paid by the imperial court. Consolation money and a certain amount of food were given according to the number of casualties, so that the survivors would not die. will not be able to survive this catastrophe.

Comparing the two, the court's policy made the common people feel grateful, while King Hebei became the object of everyone's scolding.

Not to mention the King of Hebei, even other princes who want to usurp the throne at this moment will be cast aside by the people, and no one will believe that those usurpers can really think about them.

There was no need for an order from the imperial court. After the funeral was finished and the house was repaired, the common people spontaneously formed a patrol team to strengthen the patrol work in Kyoto day and night, which saved the imperial court manpower.

After Su Mianyue knew about it, she asked people to pay these people their salaries. Even if they were not as good as official government servants, they were still [-]% higher than watchmen. It was no problem to support a family.

And let people teach these militiamen fist and kick kung fu, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties after discovering problems.

The actions of the imperial court undoubtedly warmed the hearts of the common people. As a result, more and more people signed up to join the army. Even the victims of the disaster wanted to do things for the imperial court. Unfortunately, they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and could only rely on the imperial court's rescue to survive.

After the turmoil, Su Mianyue did not issue a decree to punish these victims. Except for a few people who were bribed and incited the people and were secretly executed, the others continued to return to the camps for the victims, but they were no longer able to eat and talk. Instead, the court distributes a certain amount of food every day for them to live and cook by themselves.

And I gave them the work of weaving straw sandals and mats and making military uniforms. Although they are old and weak, women and children, how can there be people in the countryside who can't do these things? The imperial court will pay them a certain amount of wages. It is not impossible to go back to the hometown to settle down.

Regardless of whether they have done anything wrong or not, the victims are all grateful to the court at this moment, doing their best to receive work every day, and want to do more for the frontline soldiers.

Because the imperial court has made up for the losses of the common people, the confiscated gold, silver, property, and food have all been sent to the treasury. Many things do not know who the owner is. To avoid the possibility of being falsely identified, Su Mianyue does not Intending to return it to its original owner.

But after seeing the list presented in front of him, he still couldn't help but be surprised. These finances and other items add up to hundreds of millions of taels of gold. If they were really taken away by Hebei King's people, how many soldiers and horses could they recruit?

"Thank you for your hard work, you two lovers. Please read this list carefully. If you can find the owner of some items, return them secretly, lest someone will take the opportunity to tamper with you." Su Mianyue put the list of valuables on the table On the morning, Eunuch Qing hurriedly delivered it to Ji Qin and Prime Minister Right.

It's not that Su Mianyue is generous, but that there are many things in it that no one dares to claim, but they are family heirlooms of those people. The reason why Su Mianyue did this is to give these people a warning. Under the royal eye.

Not only for the owners of these items, but also for Ji Qin and Right Prime Minister, isn't it a kind of beating?
There can never be a pure relationship between the monarch and his ministers, and only by giving grace and power can they cooperate better.

Ji Qin and Prime Minister You exchanged a look. These days they have dealt with too many state affairs together, and there is already a certain tacit understanding between the two of them. What else can they do besides laugh helplessly at this moment?

"A secret report came from the frontier that the King of Hebei has retreated to the deep mountains. Although the King of Hebei cannot be wiped out in one fell swoop for the time being, it is always a happy event for the court to lose such a black sheep. Declare the name to the world, and let those who are detestable understand the consequences of coveting the throne." Su Mianyue said lightly, but leaned back.

Being nearly nine months pregnant, Su Mianyue will feel tired after sitting for a long time.

Prime Minister Right and Ji Qin hurriedly took orders, Su Mianyue stood up holding on to the armrest, walked a few steps near the phoenix chair, relaxed a little before saying: "There is no good news from the emperor for the time being, but I Gong believes that there will be good news in a short time. The two Qing families are the courtiers that the emperor relies on. I hope that you can understand the hard work of the emperor and clean up some people or things that should not exist before the emperor returns to the palace. Clean, so that the emperor can rest the dragon body."

Ji Qin and You looked at each other, and saw the solemn look in each other's eyes. This errand is the real hot potato.

But looking at Su Mianyue who may be in labor at any time, the two of them can only swallow their words, what else can they do besides accepting orders?
Su Mianyue was indeed a little tired, and after giving some orders, she asked the two of them to leave.

Recently, Su Mianyue seldom went to court early, she asked these two people to come to the study to report to her if she had anything to do, and she asked them to order Su Mianyue's affairs, unless it was an emergency or a great victory in the war, she would only go to court early.

After the civil and military officials knew that the explosives were developed by Su Mianyue, no one dared to say a bad word even if Su Mianyue was so 'not doing business properly', and even tried not to bother Su Mianyue as much as possible. Be careful to offend this master and burn their home to the ground.

The court of Yan State was peaceful, but there were some people who were in a terrible situation.

In the deep mountain where the King of Hebei was, the masked man was sitting on the main seat in anger, while the King of Hebei, who had always secretly called himself emperor, was kneeling in the middle of the ground, not even daring to lift his head.

Among the people who cooperated with the masked man, King Hebei had the most medicine men, which means that the masked man provided the most medicinal materials, but the loss that King Hebei brought to the masked man was also Very tragic.

"Trash, so many medicine men have been eliminated. Is this your promise to me?" The masked man waved his hand, and the tea set on the table flew towards King Hebei, smashing the blood on King Hebei's forehead DC.

"My lord, please calm down. This subordinate is sure to win. Who would have thought that bitch Su Mianyue developed something called explosives, and even the explosives were blown to pieces. This subordinate is incompetent and can only watch those The medicine man made a meaningless sacrifice, please the Lord and General." King Hebei was trembling, but he didn't dare to shirk responsibility for himself, otherwise he would not even know how he died.

Before the masked man could speak, Fang Yuan, who was sitting on the other side, suddenly had a gloomy and cold gaze, and with a flick of his fingertips, he saw a cold light shooting towards King Hebei's shoulder, and immediately sent King Hebei flying ten meters away.

"Let me hear you scold her again, it's not such a small punishment, remember." Fang Yuan's voice was not cold, but the murderous look in his eyes did not hide it.
