In the front yard, in the open space, the servants were sorting and registering the things sent by the villagers.
Wu ordered her servants to put the live poultry into the chicken coop next to the stable. There was a room there with several poultry. Every few days, Zhuangzi would send some poultry to the people in the house to eat, so there was a Chicken coop.
Then the servants sent the vegetables and eggs to the kitchen, and everything else to the warehouse.
Nalan Jinnian was about to go find the emperor.
The emperor then passed through the Moon Gate and came out.
He saw so many things placed in the open space. Needless to say, these must be warm birthday gifts from the common people.
He not only glanced at Nalan Jinnian, but also joked: "Seventeenth Emperor brother, you are really not good at it! Look how popular Princess Hui'an is!
The Seventeenth Emperor's brother has done a lot for the people over the years, right? !
But the people didn’t even give you a single chicken feather! No, Seventeenth Emperor Brother, you really can’t! "
Men don’t like to be told no!
Nalan Jinnian looked back at the emperor and replied calmly: "Brother, you are really good! Brother, you have been the emperor for so many years and have been in charge of the heaven for decades. There have been several Wanshou Festivals! The people have been together." I haven’t even given you a single piece of organic fertilizer!”
The corner of Shangshu's mouth twitched. He seemed to have heard Princess Hui'an say before that organic fertilizers are poultry excrement and the like!
The emperor didn't understand and looked at Wenhou: "What is organic fertilizer?"
The Seventeenth Emperor's Brother is really too bad!
They actually used things he didn't even understand to bury him!
The Minister of War also looked at Wen Hou: He hadn't heard of it either.
The Seventh Prince: "It sounds like a good thing. I'm afraid the people don't have that much money to buy it!"
Wenhou: "......"
Wen Hou looked hesitant. If he told him directly, would the emperor blame him
But he really wanted to know the emperor's expression when he knew about organic fertilizers, so Wenhou pretended to be embarrassed and said: "...Organic fertilizers are just chicken feces."
The voice was small, but everyone heard it!
For a moment, with the emperor as the center of the circle, there was silence all around!
What is the seventh prince thinking about chicken shit
Never heard of it!
Then he saw a servant taking away a chicken coop, leaving a pile of chicken feces on the ground!
Seventh Prince: "......"
Organic fertilizer = chicken poop
"Pfft!" The seventh prince couldn't help laughing.
Uncle Seventeen is still so cute!
Organic fertilizer, chicken poop! Ha ha... ...
The emperor glared at him!
The seventh prince quickly stopped laughing and said hurriedly: "This organic fertilizer is good. With it, the crops in the fields grow very well! Of course the people are reluctant to give it to my father!"
The Minister of Hubu, the Minister of War and others lowered their heads, and their shoulders kept shaking!
The Seventh Prince is here to make fun of you!
The emperor almost rolled his eyes. He glared at the seventh prince fiercely: "Shut up!"
The seventh prince touched his nose and said nothing.
It was obviously the Seventeenth Emperor's uncle who buried his father, so why was he the one being scolded? !
The emperor decided to ignore them.
Each one is more irritating than the last!
He took a look at the things sent by the people. They were all poultry raised at home and grain grown in the fields. They were not worth much money, but they looked like they were carefully selected. They were really thoughtful!
Alas, when will the people be able to give him birthday gifts like this!
Although he does not lack these things, if the common people can take the initiative to give them to him, he will feel a sense of accomplishment for being the emperor!
God knows that he wakes up earlier than a chicken, goes to court early every day, and goes to bed later than a brothel girl, just to review memorials!
It’s not easy either!
He works hard and loves the people, but it's a pity that the people can't see him!
well!
The emperor felt sad. He himself knew that his emperor's reputation in the hearts of the people was quite high!
The palace is heavily guarded, so people have no way to give him anything!
The emperor comforted himself in his heart, and then he looked around. He didn't see any warmth, so he couldn't help but look at Nalan Jinnian: "Where is Princess Hui'an?"
Nalan Jinnian: "Send the villagers off outside."
After hearing this, the emperor felt that he should go and see how Nuan Nuan got along with the people, and how he was so popular!
Before the emperor could reach the gate of the mansion, he heard Nuan Nuan talking to the villagers. He couldn't help but stop and did not approach the gate of the mansion.
Wen Hou, the Seventh Prince, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and the others naturally followed. Seeing the emperor stop, they also stopped.
Separated by a wall, Wen Nuan said to the villagers: "Thank you everyone for sending me so many things. It's getting late now, and the city gate should have been closed at this point. I asked people to book three tables at Taoranju, and also asked people to book three tables at the inn. After asking for a few rooms, we all followed Mr. Lin to Taoranju for dinner. After dinner, we went to the Keshangju Inn opposite to stay for one night, and then we left the city and went home tomorrow!"
After hearing Wen Nuan's words, the villagers waved their hands and shook their heads:
"How can that be done? Tao Ranju is so precious, we won't go! We won't go to the inn either. It's just a small gesture for us to give the princess something like this, and we don't want the princess to spend so much money!"
"That's right, we're not going! Let's buy some steamed buns to eat, and then we can sleep on a cart near the city gate for one night! Tao Ranju heard that a dish costs more than ten taels of silver! In the capital's inn, one can The evening is precious.”
"Princess Hui'an, you don't have to be like this. It's too expensive. We feel guilty! How can we cause you trouble! There are so many of us..."
... ...
The villagers refused every word.
Wen Nuan smiled and reassured: "It doesn't cost anything, I opened Taoranju. The inn doesn't let you live in one room, it's two people sharing a room, and it doesn't cost much money. Everyone is considerate today! You have brought so many things. , I deserve it! I eat the emperor's salary and worry about the emperor. The emperor cares about the people and wants the poor people to live a life of plenty of food and clothing, so he sent me and King Jin to help everyone. So that everyone can have enough food and clothing. There is work to do, and you can live a life of plenty of food and clothing as soon as possible! I am only acting on the emperor's orders, and I really don't need to give so many things in the future. This is what I should do!"
After hearing this, Village Chief Guo said: "The emperor is a wise king and the best emperor in the world. Since the emperor ascended the throne, the imperial court has distributed food and cotton-padded clothes and quilts to our village every winter. The lives of our people have become much better. .But Princess Hui'an is also a good princess! There are many officials in the world, but not all of them have the ability to make the people live a good life! We don't want to always wait for the court's relief and become a burden to the court. It’s great that Princess Hui’an can teach us how to make money and give us a way to make a living! I’m really giving you a gift because we are so grateful to Princess Hui’an! We can’t be ungrateful!”
"That's right! Princess Hui'an is simply our reborn parent, giving us a way out! It's our intention to give you such a small thing without any money! We can't give it to the emperor when he is in the palace, otherwise we would give it to the emperor too! "
"Yes, the emperor is a wise king and a good emperor. Princess Hui'an is our reborn parent. You are all good people. Next time we send something to the emperor, Princess Hui'an can help us give it to the emperor!"
... ..
The emperor stood at the gate of the palace and couldn't help but be moved when he heard these words from the people: Finally, he went to court early before dawn every day, and reviewed memorials every night until midnight, it was all worth it!
And all the money from the treasury was not wasted!
He couldn't help but look proudly at Nalan Jinnian beside him: Look, the people are all thinking about him, the emperor!
