The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Yuyan smiled mysteriously and said, “Princess Consort, don’t worry. I will not give up on the Star Seizer Pavilion.”

After saying that, he took his leave.

Yuyan walked out of the imperial study and shook his head with a laugh.

This little emperor was really unwilling to take any losses.

Those who looked down on him would definitely regret it.

Su Yan looked at Nalan Cui in front of her and felt that he was a little unfamiliar. However, only in this way could he better adapt to the life of the palace.

Nalan Cui walked in front of her with a hint of admiration on his face. “Sister, let me take you out to play tonight.”

Su Yan instantly threw her previous thoughts to the back of her mind and said, “Sure, sure.”

The next day in the imperial court.

Nalan Cui directly appointed Yuyan as the imperial envoy and was fully responsible for the refugee matters.

Such a young and unfamiliar face was met with opposition from everyone.

Nalan Cui said coldly, “Alright, if any of the ministers object to this matter, just leave it to him.”

Only then did they shut their mouths.

Yuyan was neither servile nor overbearing throughout the entire process.

The refugees had gathered at the entrance of the capital for many days. The two tents that were built temporarily simply could not accommodate so many people.

Yuyan did not choose to continue building the tents because he had no money.

Except for a granary provided by Su Yan, he really did not have any silver.

He sent people to record all the dilapidated temples in the city.

Then he said publicly that the refugees could enter the dilapidated temples in the capital and live there.

This decision made the ministers who had been watching in secret not know whether to laugh or cry.

When these people entered the capital, they would definitely rob when there was no food. The ministers were just waiting for the imperial envoy to embarrass himself.

The refugees would definitely cause trouble if they were hungry. Yuyan then promulgated the second rule. 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

All the refugees would dig channels outside the city. Once they worked a certain amount of working hours every day, they would be able to receive three meals a day.

This news made the refugees cheer.

Each and every one of them was honest. Those who caused trouble would be collectively boycotted by others. There was no need for the people of the imperial court to control them.

Only those who had lived a life without food and clothing could understand how precious these three meals were. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

This news caused the ministers to quarrel with each other in the imperial court.

The person led by Elder Zheng said, “Your Majesty, this is not fair. With the granary, imperial envoy will naturally be able to smoothly provide disaster relief.”

Nalan Cui said softly, “Do you think that this granary was given to him by me?”

The ministers had an expression of “What else?”.

Nalan Cui smiled and said, “The national treasury is empty. I don’t have a granary for him.”

Yuyan immediately said in a clear voice, “This granary was donated by Princess Consort Guang Pingwang.”

Hearing this name, all the ministers were shocked.

They all guessed that if it was an order from Guang Pingwang behind this, and they all started to panic.

If Guang Pingwang supported this little emperor, they would be facing a great disaster.

Elder Zheng let out a cough and told them to calm down and not panic.

He cupped his hands and said, “Emperor, although we have a granary, this imperial envoy is still too young. Labor in exchange for food? The capital is not a waterlogged area. It is useless to build so many canals.”

Nalan Cui let out an “Oh” and said, “In your opinion, what should we do?”

Elder Zheng continued, “It’s better for us to handle this matter.”

As soon as he said this, the ministers behind him were all jolted.

This was a good idea. With this, not only would their previous bet lose its effectiveness, they might even be able to do something to earn some money.

Nalan Cui did not answer. He directly threw the question to Yuyan and said, “Then what is imperial envoy’s opinion?”

Yuyan smiled like an old fox and said, “Elder Zheng’s ability is indeed not to be underestimated. In just a few days, he has made the capital’s grain and oil market to a new high. I admire this means.”

This was taunting both overtly and secretly. It directly made Elder Zheng upset, and he stared at him gloomily.

All these masterpieces were of course led by Nalan Cui.

After leaving the morning court, Nalan Cui left in a good mood.

With a stiff smile, Yuyan left amidst the gazes of the ministers.

He sighed. He had still underestimated the emperor’s ability.

However… he chuckled again. Following such a master was more interesting, wasn’t it?
