Crimson Pearl Tears in a Dream of Red Mansions

Seeing Qingwen's sudden silence, Daiyu just thought that Qingwen couldn't accept the truth of the matter for a while, so she said, "Qingwen, I know that no matter who this kind of thing happened to, it's suddenly given to me by others." If you shake it off, no one will be able to accept it, so don't hold back, just let it out."

Hearing what Daiyu said, Qingwen felt a lot more relaxed, and said: "Princess, don't worry about your servant, I believe what the princess said, but just now I recalled that the emperor often cared about my servant intentionally or unintentionally, so I asked again. I have always felt uncomfortable talking about the slaves' homes, but now that I think about it, it suddenly becomes clear."

Daiyu was relieved when she heard what Qingwen said, and said: "But it's strange to say that Uncle Emperor also knows that Daddy is looking for Qingwen's whereabouts, but why didn't he mention a word? And Uncle Emperor still Sending Qingwen to serve me by my side, I reckon there must be some reason for this." Qingwen said: "When the emperor ordered his servants to serve the princess, he didn't say anything, only talking about the princess's side. There is a lack of a female official to serve, and I am afraid that it will be inconvenient, so I let the servants come over."

Lin Wenmao said: "This subordinate also asked the master about this, but the master just smiled and said that it might be because of the emperor's sudden prank, and there is no special reason." Yinzhen heard this Words, the corners of his mouth twitched suspiciously, and he stroked his forehead with his hand, looking like he had a headache.

But Daiyu is familiar with Lin Ruhai's temperament. She knows that the more Lin Ruhai says this, it proves that there must be some ulterior secret in it, and it is obvious that Lin Ruhai has already guessed the reason. It is because the time has not yet come.After thinking about it, Daiyu didn't bother to pursue further, now is the important time to eradicate the four major families, she doesn't want to cause more troubles for herself, she still wants to live a clean life.

So he said: "Since daddy said so, then we don't need to pursue it further. Only one thing, I made a divination yesterday, I'm afraid it will be snowed in a few days, we should make more preparations, In such a tight financial situation, the treasury is empty, even if the treasury is full, it will not be able to withstand the corruption of the disaster relief officials. I am afraid that less than [-]% of the disaster relief silver will be distributed to the people. For the matter, the fourth brother needs to ask the emperor's uncle for an order, so that the fourth brother will personally lead the officials to fight and rescue the disaster."

Yinzhen nodded, of course he knows the importance of this, and indeed only he can handle this matter well, if this matter falls into the hands of Yinsi and the others, I am afraid that Yinsi will form cliques in order to bribe the court officials , Will ignore the disaster victims, when the time comes, I am afraid that those disaster victims will turn into bandits and seriously endanger the court and society.

On Lin Ruhai's side, of course, he had already expected that there would be a snowstorm this year, so Jia Min also ordered his servants to prepare food, cotton clothes and other things early in the morning.As for Lin Ruhai, he had already ordered Qiongyu to order the grain farms under the name of Xuantian Department to stockpile more grain, and at the same time asked the medical clinics and pharmacies under the name of Cangtian Department to store more medicines for typhoid fever and chilblain in case of emergencies. need.

And Qiongyu had already expected that Lin Ruhai would give such an order, so she had already ordered it to go on, so that all the grain shops and medicine shops in Zhili, Hebei and other provinces, including the capital, lowered their prices to the lowest point. Therefore, those shops of the Xue family who only care about raising prices are actually sluggish, with few people coming, so that they are about to close down.But Aunt Xue and Baochai were worried and panicked, and asked Xue Pan to find out what was going on, but Xue Pan thought the price reduction was only temporary, so he didn't take it seriously, and followed Jia Lian, Jia Rong, etc. People went to Bada Hutong to have fun.

Besides, at the court, Yinzhen reported the snow disaster to Kangxi, and said that he should make preparations as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard, but was reprimanded by officials of Yinsi's party for "worrying about the sky" and "talking nonsense". However, Kangxi agreed with Yinzhen's point of view and handed over the matter to Yinzhen, which made Yinsi a little worried.

Sure enough, within a few days, heavy snow fell in the capital, Zhili, Hebei and other mountainous areas. In just two days, many villages were affected. Fortunately, Yinzhen evacuated the people in time, so no one was injured or injured. Most of the villagers' houses have collapsed, and it is extremely difficult to rebuild them all at once.

At this difficult time, Lin's mansion had a visitor. At that time, Yinzhen, Yinxiang, and Daiyu were discussing countermeasures with Lin Ruhai in Lin's mansion. Only after seeing each other did they realize that it was at that time that Daiyu and Yinzuo were coming. Chen Yejun, Feng Ziying and Wei Ruolan met when Xiaoyingzhou visited Miaoyu in the suburbs of Beijing.

"You guys are here?" Daiyu was a little surprised when she saw Chen Yejun and the other three suddenly visiting.Chen Yejun smiled lightly, and said: "When I was in Liujiazhuang, I promised the princess. If there is a snow disaster, I will definitely come to help the princess. How can we be that person who breaks promise?"

Daiyu smiled when she heard the words, and said: "It's just in time for you to come. Ben Gong and fourth brother are still worried about the residence of the victims. Although the imperial court helped build some thatched huts, they are not warm enough to keep out the cold. If things go on like this, I'm afraid that within a few days, some victims will suffer from typhoid fever."

Wei Ruolan listened, and said with a smile: "The princess's house is kind and caring for the victims, but the three of us admire it very much. In fact, the three of us are also here for the residence of the victims, and we are here to express our gratitude to the princess and the victims." Four Baylor offered advice."

"Oh, let's hear it." Lin Ruhai and Yinzhen said in unison, and Qiongyu also showed a curious look.Hearing this, Wei Ruolan took out a few drawings and said to Lin Ruhai and the others: "The drawing on this is a kind of tent, but it's different from those yurts and the tents of nomads in general. The yurt can also block the wind and sand. , but it cannot keep out the cold, otherwise the Mongols would not need to wear such thick clothes in cold weather. Although the tents of the nomads can keep out the cold, it is extremely troublesome to set up, and the fabrics used are from our place. But the land in the Central Plains is hard to find, so the three of us designed this kind of tent, which is not only light and compact, but also keeps out the cold, and it is more than enough for each family to live in."

Everyone looked at the blueprint carefully, and found that the tent was made of two layers of different fabrics. The outer layer was the kind commonly used to make umbrellas, while the inner layer was made of cold-proof fabric. The skeleton is made of bamboo soaked in oil and roasted, which is more resilient and not afraid of being crushed by heavy objects.The most important thing is that after the tent is opened, it can be used to cage the earth dragon, and it is not afraid of being accidentally caught in the fire. It can be cooked in it, and the workmanship is simple and the cost is not high.

After Qiongyu read it carefully, she sighed: "How did you come up with this idea? I have seen many imported products from the West, and there are tents inside, but I have never seen this kind of tent that can be used as a house." Living."

Chen Yejun heard the words, but smiled and said: "This is also Ziying's credit, but Young Master Lin doesn't know that Ziying always likes to travel all over the world, but he has been to many places. Ruolan and I just made some suggestions about the characteristics of the tents that nomads live in and the advantages of the two. " Hearing this, Yin Zhen couldn't help but nodded appreciatively.When Feng Ziying heard this, she didn't take it seriously, and just smiled boldly.

Daiyu said: "Since that's the case, how about leaving this matter to you?" Feng Ziying said: "Brother Yejun and Ruolan are still going to help the victims, and I can only handle this matter." That's it." Daiyu nodded, and said, "In that case, I'll let Chunxian help you, but Chunxian is also very good at this." After hearing this, Chunxian agreed.

Fortunately, there are many such shops under the name of the Cangtian Department, and Kangxi also sent many skilled craftsmen to help, so a large number of these tents have been built within three days.After receiving these tents, Xu Zhen distributed one to each household, and dispatched some brave soldiers from the Royal Forest Army to help the victims build tents, and after the snowstorm was over, they would rebuild their homes for the victims.Seeing the court's concern, the disaster victims were filled with gratitude.

Putting this aside, recently Daiyu found that Chunxian seemed to have something on her mind, and she was often absent-minded, even if she was waiting by her side, she would be in a trance, not as shrewd and capable as usual.So I became suspicious, and said: "What's wrong with Chunxian's hoof? Why has he always been so out of his mind recently? Could it be that he is tired of serving me? If so, I will tell the fourth brother tomorrow, and only let the fourth brother take care of me." Take it back."

When Chunxian heard about it, she hurriedly knelt down and said, "Good master, good princess, don't let the fourth master take the servant back, otherwise, the servant will still be alive?" Daiyu smiled and said "Look at what you said, it seems that the fourth brother is a demon that eats people." Chunxian heard the words, and said in her heart: "The fourth master only looks harmless in front of you, the princess. How can it be different?" But in the end, he didn't dare to say it, he only knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Seeing this, Daiyu said: "Okay, just tell me first, what's wrong with you recently, why do you always look like you're absent-minded?" He smiled and said, "There is no other reason. Didn't the princess notice that Chunxian's hoof is getting very close to Feng Ziying and Mr. Feng recently?"

Only then did Daiyu suddenly realize, because she said with a smile: "It's strange, although the weather has been very cold recently, I always feel that there is a sense of spring in this room. I thought it was my illusion, but it turns out that spring has arrived. "When Chunxian heard the words, she couldn't help but blushed and remained silent.

At this time, only hearing a man's voice behind her, Daiyu turned her head, and when she saw the person, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
