Chapter 171 Fundraising
And this snow disaster was fabricated by Wanli based on the memory of her previous life.

This snow disaster is true, but it will not last for more than a month, but only five days, it can be said that it comes and goes quickly.

As long as the number is correct in the first five days, the disappearance after that is naturally the effect of the cracking method Master Ciyuan said.

The news of Wanli's return to the imperial city quickly spread in Tiancheng.

At the same time, the imperial decree of the emperor and the time when Wanli disappeared were actually prayed in Hanshan Temple.

There are even rumors that Master Ciyuan once personally said that Princess Ling is indeed an auspicious person sent by heaven, and only her personal prayers can solve the disaster.

The master infers that the auspicious day for blessing is the fifth day of heavy snow, and the heavy snow of the previous five days still needs to be prevented.

What the emperor's imperial decree said was the method of preventing disasters in advance.

All regions, especially states and counties, need to be ordered to make arrangements.

Just because of the urgency of time, the required funds are indeed a considerable expense.

The matter of the former dynasty soon spread to the harem.

When the queen heard about Wanli's return, the original worry between her brows dissipated a lot.

After Wanli and the emperor reported the matter, they were not in a hurry to go back to the Earl's Mansion, but instead came to Fenghe Palace: "Auntie!"

When Wanli saw Yunman, she performed a court ceremony softly.

"You're back!" The queen saw Wanli, and a gleam of joy flashed between her brows:
"Where have you been these days?" As the owner of Phoenix Chi, the Queen naturally knew about the Butterfly Guard's rescue of Wanli that day.

Therefore, the queen did not believe what Wanli said about going to pray for blessings after she came back.

Wanli didn't expect this rhetoric to hide from Yunman, so she didn't hesitate to tell the whole story about her being kidnapped by the fourth prince.

Upon hearing this, the queen couldn't help but patted the table: "You bastard!"

Then, the queen seemed to think of something: "You mean that the Fourth Prince knew that it was your idea to know about Concubine Zhao?"

Wanli shook her head when she heard this: "It should be a guess. I tested him once. The fourth prince didn't know that Concubine Cai was my secret guard, but he knew that Concubine Cai was saved by me when he was young, so he had a guess."

The queen nodded when she heard this: "However, no matter what, the fourth prince is completely on the opposite side with you and me this time. You and I need to prepare for this."

Wanli nodded when she heard this: "The fourth prince thought that after this incident, my reputation would be stinky no matter what, but he didn't expect that I would cause this blessing."

Speaking of praying for blessings, the queen also remembered what she had heard before, with obvious doubts on her face: "Speaking of praying for blessings, did you really see Master Ciyuan? Could this snow disaster be real?"

Wanli nodded when she heard this, she must not tell her aunt about her rebirth, in this case, she can only completely push the matter to Master Ciyuan: "But it is so, I don't know why, Master Ciyuan seems to be in a relationship with Wanli. Li hit it off right away, and was very willing to help Wanli, and this snow disaster was also predicted by Master Ciyuan."

Wan Lisi and Master Ciyuan mentioned that it was entrusted by an old friend, and asked the queen one or two intentionally: "Auntie, do you know if Master Ciyuan has any relationship with Wanli?"

Hearing this, the queen pondered for a while, then seemed to think of something, nodded: "Speaking of which, your mother often went to Hanshan Temple to pray for blessings, and she also met Master Ciyuan."

Wanli couldn't help being taken aback when she heard this!
Mother!Could it be that the deceased Master Ciyuan mentioned was actually his mother!

If this is the case, then the mother must have met Master Ciyuan during her pregnancy, otherwise how could she entrust Wanli?

Wanli thought about this and looked at the queen, then asked: "Does my aunt know whether my mother has been to Hanshan Temple after she became pregnant?"

The queen shook her head when she heard this, "After your mother became pregnant, I also entered the palace, and I rarely saw your mother after that, so I don't know the specifics."

Wanli couldn't help being disappointed upon hearing this...

Seeing this, the queen chatted with Wanli about something else.

Speaking of the snow disaster, it was really that serious. As the mother of a country, the empress was also full of worry at this moment.

"Auntie, don't worry, Wanli has some ideas to discuss with her when she comes here." Wanli said, taking out a stack of papers from her bosom.

There are many ways to prevent snow disasters on display.

Some were previously promulgated by the emperor, and some were not promulgated by the emperor.

Although the queen is not professional about this, she still couldn't help nodding after reading it.

"This snow disaster prevention method is only one of them, but the method of raising donations mentioned above is very novel, and it can just solve the urgent need for money!"

The queen saw Wanli and couldn't help but praise.

Wanli smiled when she heard this.

Wanli also had a lot of exchanges with Master Ciyuan, and on the way back, she sorted them out of the carriage.

"Wanli is a woman, it's better not to be too quick-eyed, so it's best to use these methods to present to the emperor in the name of aunt." Wanli thought about it and said to the queen.

The queen nodded when she heard this.

Indeed, the current emperor is very suspicious.

Wanli's identity as a god-given auspicious person is already a bit of a sight, and behind her is her aunt who is the queen, and her grandfather who holds military power. The emperor was suspicious.

The next day, the emperor made it clear when he went to court.

Promote donations on the court,
She also said that the queen set an example and had already decided to cut half of the annual expenditure of the harem for donations.

Seeing this, Marquis Weiyuan immediately expressed his willingness to donate 10 taels of silver.

Of course, Yun Canxian's business talent in Weiyuanhou's mansion is well known, so although the amount of money donated by Weiyuanhouhou is huge, no one suspects that it came from a wrong way.

On the contrary, the prime minister is a little embarrassed here.

Marquis Weiyuan and the prime minister are used to being equal in court, and Marquis Weiyuan donated 10 taels, so the prime minister should not be outdone.

Although this 10 taels is not too much for the prime minister, it is quite a lot for the normal prime minister's salary. There is no one in the prime minister's mansion who is good at managing financial management like Yun Canxian, who rashly spends so much money , the emperor will doubt...

Thinking of this, the Prime Minister gritted his teeth and said, "I am not talented in a humble position, so I am willing to donate 5 taels of silver!"

Hearing this, many military officers, Mr. Zhang, who had been at odds with the prime minister on weekdays, couldn't help but sneered: "Sure enough, the prime minister is used to frugality, and at this moment, he doesn't forget to hold his money bag tightly! I'm humble, I'm willing to donate All the belongings are 8 taels!"

Everyone laughed even more when they heard this. This Mr. Zhang ranks in the third rank, and 8 taels is indeed the entire property of a third-rank official...
