Joy of Life: Starting by clinging to the eldest princess's coattails!

Chapter 128 I sent someone to kill you

Suzhou.

In the past few days, Xie Yu and the others have made ample preparations.

Ye Baizhou and the three treasurers of the three major workshops used the channels of Qingyutang and the three major workshops to purchase a large amount of supplies, especially medicinal materials and grains.

Every day, ships dock at the pier, unloading bags of grain and boxes of medicinal herbs.

More are still being delivered.

They also gathered a large number of doctors to come to Suzhou to provide consultations. These doctors were arranged in several vacant courtyards outside the city, ready to see patients at any time.

Xu Jingyuan and Jiang Fuhai together dispatched their men to the route from Jiangbei to Suzhou.

A soup kitchen was set up every few dozen miles to ensure that the disaster victims would not starve to death along the way, nor would they riot over the looting of food.

Prefect Xie Yu made preparations to receive disaster victims in three places in Suzhou: Baimajian, Xishan Island, and Wangshan.

He wanted to use these disaster victims to build three small reservoirs in these three locations.

It can solve the livelihood problems of disaster victims and also increase water conservancy in Suzhou.

Everything they did was done in the name of Her Highness the Eldest Princess.

And it has already been widely publicized along the route from Jiangbei to Suzhou:

When Her Highness the Eldest Princess learned of the devastating floods in Jiangbei, she couldn't bear to see the people of Jiangbei displaced, so she ordered the three major pharmacies and Qingyutang to provide relief to the victims.

He also suggested that Xie Yu, the prefect of Suzhou, should build water conservancy projects and hire disaster victims to work, thus giving these victims a way to make a living.

These messages have already spread in Suzhou and quickly reached Jiangbei.

Some of the disaster victims who knew about it early are already on their way to Suzhou.

Whether in Suzhou or along the route from Jiangbei to Suzhou, many people are talking about it.

Many people praise the eldest princess as a living bodhisattva.

Some people speculated that the reason Her Highness the Princess did these things was because she had a dream on the night she arrived in Suzhou.

She dreamt that a little phoenix transformed into a child, who appeared to her in the dream and asked her to help the disaster victims in Jiangbei.

That's why Her Highness the Eldest Princess ordered Qingyutang and the three major workshops to provide relief to the disaster victims.

Some people are saying that the child Her Highness dreamed of might be the child she is currently pregnant with.

This view has been accepted by many people.

Some disaster victims have even erected a longevity tablet for the princess, kneeling and praying day and night, beseeching heaven to bless the princess and the child she is carrying.

Many of the rumors were the work of Xie Yu, Chen Youliang, and others.

The purpose was to let everyone know that the Princess's premarital pregnancy did not violate the law, but was a little phoenix sent by Heaven to the disaster victims in Jiangbei and the people of Qing Kingdom.

This rumor has been confirmed by ascetics at temples such as Hanshan Temple and Xiyuan Temple in Suzhou.

The princess is indeed carrying the little phoenix girl bestowed upon the Qing Kingdom by Heaven.

However, the little phoenix girl will experience three calamities and six tribulations before her birth, and she will be born amidst thunder on the day of her birth.

This rumor has caused great concern among many people in Suzhou.

What do you mean by "three calamities and six tribulations"? To put it simply, it means that someone wants to harm Her Highness the Eldest Princess and the unborn Phoenix Maiden!

They must protect Her Highness the Eldest Princess and the unborn Phoenix Maiden!

Lakeside Cottage.

When Li Yunrui learned of these rumors, she smiled radiantly, but also somewhat sickly.

She could already foresee that once the flood in Jiangbei was over, the traditional values ​​and doctrines that bound her to premarital pregnancy would be completely shattered.

Lakeside pavilion.

Li Yunrui lay on the recliner and looked at Wu Feng, who was also lying on the recliner next to her.

Her voice was soft and charming: "Little Wu, were all of these things—thought of Xie Yu and the others?"

Wu Feng replied softly, "More or less, some of which I added. As long as there's no unrest during this disaster relief effort, no one will dare to bring up His Highness's premarital pregnancy again."

"Hmm—" Li Yunrui let out a soft moan, a satisfied smile spreading across her eyes, "Little Phoenix Maiden—then what is the mother of this Phoenix Maiden of mine—?"

She turned her head to the side, her alluring eyes looking straight at him.

"Mother Huang?"

After she finished speaking, she laughed first.

Her laughter was sweet and lovely, drifting on the lake breeze.

Wu Feng looked at her.

In the sunlight, her face glowed with a luminous sheen, her eyes were slightly upturned at the corners, and her lips were full and luscious.

He reached out and put his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him.

"Whatever Your Highness says goes."

a few days later.

Disaster victims from Jiangbei gradually arrived in Suzhou.

They were traveling with their families, dressed in rags, their faces bearing the weariness of a long journey and the sorrow of losing their homes.

But once they entered Suzhou, they saw soup kitchens, doctors, and the place where they were arranged to stay.

After arriving in Suzhou, they had their first hot porridge in many days.

At this moment, these disaster victims were filled with gratitude towards Her Highness the Princess and the unborn little phoenix.

Wu Feng stood on the city wall, holding his embroidered spring knife, calmly watching the disaster victims.

Outside the city gate, disaster victims lined up in long queues, waiting to register and be assigned to three places: Baimajian, Xishan Island, and Wangshan.

The yamen runners of Suzhou Prefecture were running around maintaining order.

Xie Yu stood personally at the city gate, accompanied by several clerks, registering the names and origins of the disaster victims one by one.

When some of the disaster victims learned of his identity, they immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

Xie Yu quickly helped them up, saying, "Don't kneel before me. If you want to thank someone, thank Her Highness the Princess. It was Her Highness who provided the money and provisions, and asked me to settle you down."

The disaster victim knelt down again, facing the direction of Suzhou city, and kowtowed several times.

Wu Feng stood on the city wall, watching these scenes unfold.

This first step is complete.

Next, we just need to proceed step by step, using work as a form of relief, and wait for this flood to pass.

The rest will be much easier.

At this moment, Ye Baizhou arrived at Wu Feng with a letter sent by carrier pigeon.

He climbed the city wall, walked to Wu Feng's side, and lowered his voice: "Master, this is a message from Director Chen of the Surveillance Bureau sent to you by carrier pigeon. He said it must be delivered to you personally."

Chen Pingping?

Wu Feng was somewhat puzzled.

He received the message by carrier pigeon and opened it.

The note contained only one sentence: "I sent someone to kill you."

Wu Feng looked at those words and smiled.

Chen Pingping told me in advance because she was afraid I would misunderstand.

The person sent here can be killed.

He crumpled the note into a ball and held it in his palm.

"The boss?" Ye Baizhou asked softly.

Wu Feng shook his head: "It's nothing."

He raised his head and looked in the direction of Kyoto.

Chen Pingping has already sent people over.

It seems that Emperor Qing really wants to kill him.

Perhaps, besides the people sent by Chen Pingping, there were also people sent by Emperor Qing.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the disaster victims outside the city.

The crowd was still moving slowly, and the porridge in the pot was still steaming.

After receiving the porridge, some disaster victims did not leave immediately, but instead continued to kneel and kowtow towards the direction of the city.

Wu Feng looked at the kneeling figures, then glanced at the crumpled piece of paper in his hand.

The wind blew in, carrying the smells of cooking fires from outside the city, as well as the low prayers of the disaster victims.

He tucked the crumpled paper into his pocket.

Come on then.
