Dress up as cannon fodder, angrily marry the villain, and fight if you don't accept it!

More than half a month later, Hai Duan returned from Beiliang.

He returned with Song Zhirou, the master of Medicine King Valley, and Nan Rongyue, the immortal master.

The snowstorm was too severe, and Medicine King Valley also made every effort to cast more than a dozen giant tripods in Beiliang, in which the Three Yang Fire was stored to drive away the cold for the people.

It was precisely because of this that the number of people who died from the disaster was less than two thousand since the snowstorm occurred nearly three months ago.

Hai Duan did not return to the imperial city to report, only Song Zhirou and Nan Rongyue came.

The two went directly to the newly built Ganlu Palace, which was also Shen Yuze's new bedroom.

After seeing Shen Jinxian, Song Zhirou's beautiful eyes lit up and she was very happy.

"Sister-in-law Jingxian, I heard that you gave birth when I was in Beiliang. It's really cute!"

Su Jingxian smiled gently and joked: "Zhirou, I see you like it very much, why don't you take it and raise it for a while?"

"No, no, no! I can't take care of a child!" Song Zhirou quickly refused.

Song Zhirou held the baby for a while, and when Shen Yuze came, she carefully put it back in the cradle.

"Brother Yuze, long time no see!"

Song Zhirou's face was full of smiles.

Shen Yuze smiled and said: "Zhirou, Aunt Nan, you have worked hard in disaster relief during this period. How is the situation in Beiliang now?"

"The most difficult time is over. When spring comes, the ice and snow will melt and it will be fine." Nan Rongyue said.

"That's good. I have sent an order to the Ministry of Revenue to allocate 300,000 taels of silver to your Medicine King Valley. Don't think it's too little. Just think of it as me thanking you on behalf of the people of Beiliang."

If it weren't for the full support of Medicine King Valley, the money spent by the court would not be just 300,000 taels of silver, but would increase by dozens of times.

Nan Rongyue said, "Your Majesty, you should withdraw your order. There are not many casualties among the people of Beiliang, but the houses are basically crushed by the snow. It's better to leave the silver for them to rebuild their houses."

"One thing for another, the Ministry of Revenue has a disaster relief budget, which has nothing to do with the 300,000 taels of silver. I can't always let you, Zhirou and Medicine King Valley work for nothing." Shen Yuze said.

At this point, Nan Rongyue and Song Zhirou had to accept the grace of heaven.

Shen Yuze smiled gently and said, "Rest well in Gaojing these days. When the full moon comes, it is also the time to confer the title of Crown Prince. Please invite Aunt Nan and Zhirou to have a drink at the wedding."

"Yes, yes, I am happy to do so!" Song Zhirou said.

"By the way, Hai Duan should have returned too, right?"

This time, facing Shen Yuze's question, Nan Rongyue and Song Zhirou were silent.

Shen Yuze's heart skipped a beat and asked, "What happened to Hai Duan?"

"After Hai Shoufu went to Beiliang, he has been braving the ice and snow to rescue the disaster. His internal organs have been severely injured by the cold. We also used elixirs to warm him up and bring him back. He said he would go back to see his wife and children first and report back later."

Song Zhirou thought about it and told the truth about Hai Duan's situation.

Shen Yuze got up and walked out of Ganlu Palace without saying a word, and came to Hai Duan's house alone.

There were bursts of continuous coughing from inside.

"Dad! Dad! Why are you coughing up blood!"

"It's okay, pour Dad a cup of hot tea."

Hai Duan's teenage daughter walked out of the shabby inner room and saw Shen Yuze coming.

"Your Majesty..."

Shen Yuze looked a little anxious and asked, "Qing'er, pour your father some tea first, I'll go and see."

After saying that, Shen Yuze walked quickly into the inner room.

Hai Duan was still coughing, and there was a blood foam in front of him. His face was even paler than before he left Beijing.

"Your Majesty? Why are you here!"

Hai Duan quickly wiped the blood from his mouth and was about to kneel down when Shen Yuze hurriedly supported him and said sadly, "Since you are so sick, you should return to Beijing early. Why are you still holding on in Beiliang!"

"Alas... I asked Master Song not to tell you, but why did she still tell you." Hai Duan looked helpless.

"If I don't tell you, are you going to keep it a secret?"

"If I tell you, His Majesty may not let me continue to work in the court."

"Not maybe! It's definitely!"

Shen Yuze helped Hai Duan sit down on the edge of the bed, his face very solemn: "In the future, you should take good care of your illness. When you recover, you can return to the cabinet. The position of Prime Minister will always be reserved for you, and Zhao Liang will take care of the cabinet affairs."

"And your mansion is leaking everywhere. I will ask someone to find you a sturdy mansion later."

"Move in today!"

Hai Duan wanted to refuse, but Shen Yuze said: "Don't say you can't bear it. No one in the world can bear it, but you can."

"Also, even if you can bear it, will your half-paralyzed mother and daughter suffer this meaningless suffering with you?"

Hai Duan insisted: "If there is still a commoner in the world suffering from hunger and cold, I shouldn't enjoy those."

That's why, if you put aside official duties, there are almost fewPeople are willing to associate with Hai Duan.

It is extremely uncomfortable to have a private relationship with him, and I feel extremely guilty.

Shen Yuze feels that Hai Duan is more real than the magic mirror in his heart.

It can reveal every dark and selfish heart!

Last year, he was still building the Ganlu Palace, while Hai Duan has been living in this house with a monthly rent of two taels of silver, and there are still four people in the family.

"Your Majesty, if you really want to reward me, how about paying for the pills for me?"

"On the way back from Beiliang, Master Song and Master Nan used a lot of high-quality pills on me."

"My pocket is really shy..."

Shen Yuze said helplessly: "These are just a little effort, but you can't always be like this, you have to consider your mother, your wife and daughter."

Hai Duan still shook his head.

"Your Majesty, we have been friends for a long time. Don't you know what kind of person I am?"

"I never use myself to constrain others. I only want to keep myself upright."

"No matter how cold it is, I can always keep out the cold by wearing more cotton clothes. I can also cure the cold. My wife, daughter and mother have never lacked a full meal."

Shen Yuze really didn't know whether he should cry or laugh about such a minister.

Although Hai Duan never asked him to be frugal, he felt guilty for spending a little more.

To describe it in the simplest words, Hai Duan felt that he could support his family with his salary. If he ate more than his salary, the people in the world would eat less.

If he ate two more, the people might not have enough food.

Shen Yuze also scratched his head at this moment.

"I really don't know what to say to you. I will personally pay for your accommodation and the medicine for your treatment. I will deduct 10% from your salary every month. Is that okay?"

"Okay."

As for deduction, that's impossible, but if I don't say that, this stubborn donkey will come to me and nag about it every day.

Shen Yuze had to get up and prepare to leave, and warned: "It's freezing cold in Gaojing now, you should stay at home and don't let yourself die!"
