Return of the Swallow

Guozhang Cao had just recovered, and his conscious status was not as good as before in the eyes of the emperor, but seeing Qin Huaiyuan being taken off the official uniform and imprisoned in jail, he couldn't mention how happy he was!

"Qin Meng's servant deserves to be here." Cao Guozhang chuckled, slowly playing with the blue and white bowl in his hand.

"The minister thought that if he became a son-in-law, he would be able to join hands with him. Since ancient times, it has been the good of the two families to marry, so as to help each other in the affairs of the court. If our Cao family and in-laws form an alliance , That is the trend of prosperity, who can shake our foundation? Unexpectedly, Qin Meng is not only completely unwilling to be obedient, but also the first to jump out and fight against the old man. It is really unfavorable!"

The queen was dressed in a red palace attire, wrapped in silk and silk, Jin Bu Yao shook slightly with her downward movement, and the floured noodles were more delicate.Knocking his nails on the tabletop, he said quietly:

"It's not that my palace talks too much. Father has to be more attentive when doing the errand this time. Since the emperor is willing to use you to contact Tatar, maybe the emperor has known about our previous affairs with Tatar. My palace is following these days. The emperor's side also feels frightened, afraid that the emperor has discovered something. Now it seems that the emperor has been silent during this period. This makes my palace really panicked."

"The empress empress is absolutely right." Cao Guozhang said: "But the empress doesn't have to worry too much. Now that the Great Zhou is under pressure, the emperor will naturally rely on the old man, and there are naturally many things about the old man."

"That's good. This palace will also pay close attention to the emperor's thoughts, and will persuade the emperor at the right time. However, the little prostitute of Qin Yining is really damn! Actually taking his father's things to do favors, it is full of reputation outside, but The group of stupid untouchables don't want to think who originally belonged to that thing!"

Thinking of Qin Yining, the queen gritted her teeth, "That cheap hoof was born against this palace! She dared to take in the dead girl of the Tang family, dared to be intimate with the surnamed Pang, dared to hide the unlucky widows of the Sun family, and dare Openly provoke us. We didn't chop her up last time, because this palace was played by the heavenly machine. Can we allow her to continue to be rampant?"

Guozhang Cao raised his hand to press: "The lady is safe and restless. The old minister naturally has a way. Is it because the old man has been in officialdom for decades, but he will be no more than a hairy girl? She is proud now, let her be proud for two days. If you are too proud, you can only cry."

The queen sneered, gritted her teeth and said: "Not only does this palace just want her to cry, this palace wants her to die!"

Cao Guozhang smiled slightly, and the wrinkles on the corners of his eyes and the smile lines on the lips showed his confidence.

Upon seeing this, the queen smiled triumphantly.

At this time, the treasurer of Zhong Zhong has already begun to settle the refugees.

Although the exotic flowers, weeds, and rare animals in the garden have not been sold yet, the refugees in the city can't wait any longer, and the shopkeeper Zhong also wanted to let them see with their own eyes what Qin Yining sacrificed to save their lives. .

Therefore, the shopkeeper Zhong led people to the resettlement of the refugees in the city first, and explained his intentions as an assistant to Miss Qin Si.The refugees in despair have slept on the street for four or five days, and only have one meal of gruel a day, and there is no shelter from the wind, and they are covered with mosquito bites at night. Some children have long started. It was burned, but whether it was an adult or a child, they had no energy to cry, and it could be said that they had suffered all the time.

Now I heard that the young lady from Anping Hou’s family was willing to do work for them, and could still eat with her hands and live a stable life. Isn’t this the same life they used to live?People in despair seem to have seen the dawn. Where can they not listen?Except for a handful of people who were too lazy to work and felt that they had a mouthful of gruel, they would not go to Ningyuan when Zhou Bing retired, and most of them were willing to work for Miss Qin Si.

After the treasurer Zhong arrived at Changchun Mountain, the people who had never seen such a magnificent garden were shocked and dumbfounded.

Even if the house has been emptied, the big house like a fairy palace is still there, the hot springs are still there, and the plants and fairy birds are still there.

"This old gentleman, your lady really wants to sell everything that can be sold here, in order to feed us?" a fifty-year old man asked tremblingly.

The shopkeeper Zhong sighed: "Yes, now only these plants are left in this garden to sell, and the rest can't be demolished. The furniture inside has already been sold out, otherwise where did the money come from? Making porridge and steaming rice? My master Hou is an upright official, and the young lady is a boudoir girl. With limited financial resources, I can only do my best at this time. Please don't blame the folks."

"What's the matter! It's too late to be grateful."

"Yes, Miss Qin Si is simply a living Bodhisattva!"

"Of course, Miss Qin Si is the daughter of Zhi Pan'an, who facilitated the peace talks earlier, and later, what, what a secret, and it was calculated that Miss Si had a very good life and could bless our Great Yan Dynasty!"

...

The refugees were grateful for the kind deeds of Qin Huaiyuan, Qin Yining and the entire Anping Marquis.

It's just that Qin Huaiyuan is a good person who is still being imprisoned by the emperor in the prison, and the common people are not angry, cursing the emperor and the demon empress in a low voice.

If people's grievances can kill people, the Demon Empress and Wujun would have lost their bones long ago.

The shopkeeper Zhong was satisfied with their response and said with a smile: "The manpower around our lady is also limited. This will be busy carrying food, mats and other things to the mountain, as well as the necessary pots and pans. , And ordered someone to go to the doctor to buy medicinal materials to treat the children's illness, but there is really no manpower available to help everyone build a house."

"What's the problem with this? As long as we men have food to eat, all we have is strength. Building sheds and houses will not hinder us."

"Yes, Anping Hou and Miss Fourth have already contributed money and effort. As long as there is food and drink, we can think of everything else by ourselves."

The shopkeeper Zhong smiled, pointing to the fairy palace-like house behind the temple, and said with a smile: "But the lady said, this house is for everyone to live in. The elderly, women, children and people with medical conditions can live in the house first. Here, strong men can build houses in the yard by themselves, take baths, and there are hot springs on the mountains, which everyone can use. The mountains cited also have spring water."

"Really! Miss Si is really willing to let us live in such a good house?" A young man asked in surprise.

A sturdy man on the side said: "Nonsense, the good things in the house are willing to sell us to eat, where can we not bear to live in the house? The fourth lady is a good person!"

"Yes, Anpinghou's family are all good people!"

Seeing everyone's grateful discussion again, the shopkeeper Zhong raised his hands and pressed it down.

Everyone was silent again.

The treasurer Zhong asked: "There is one thing everyone should pay attention to. Not far from our courtyard is the'Changchun Garden' where the Queen usually soaks in hot springs. There is a special nursery guarded by the internal supervisor and the Cao family. Don’t go there! You can only build sheds in this yard. Even if you want to cut wood and hunt in the mountains, you have to walk around carefully. Don’t touch the queen’s mother. Don't go there. Our lady is alone and lonely. Only this garden on the top of the mountain can make the decision. She can assign it to everyone. She doesn't count the other places."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone nodded to express their understanding.

The Cao family is big, and Guozhang Cao has been rampant for many years. The Demon Empress is also a master who can eat and drink human blood. It is already a great grace for Miss Qin, a boudoir girl, to allocate a large garden on the top of a mountain to them.

Everyone is not a fool. Where can a daughter-in-law have any job for them to do?

Even if it is to recruit people to do work, it is looking for young men and women, unreasonably old, weak, women and children are recruited, but also specifically ask doctors to treat children and the elderly, and become sellers to "pay them".

Said to ask them to work.In fact, Miss Four is saving their lives!

Otherwise, what do people want them to do?

Those who don’t farm land and don’t raise pigs are hired to spoil such a good garden and build houses in the yard?

Miss Si said this, perhaps just to make them feel at ease.After all, when there is no war, they have their own homes, and they can eat with their hands, not wanting them to become beggars who reach out to beg for food.

In contrast to the Qin family's behavior, the queen's garden next door was so empty that no one was allowed to live, and the emperor and the queen did not see the emperor and the empress take the money from the inner bank to support them.

When conscripting soldiers and collecting taxes, the emperor bluntly said that everything in the world belongs to him and that the people are also his people. Everything about the people belongs to the emperor, and the emperor should be provided for.

But in the face of disaster, when the people need the emperor?

The emperor’s love for the people, is it just to let them sleep on the street, be bullied, and only give a bowl of gruel that can be seen as a figure every day?

The women and old people who were already soft-hearted began to wipe their tears.Even the guys were all moved and excited, and their gratitude to the Anping Hou Qin family rose to a new height.

The shopkeeper Zhong was infected by this atmosphere, thinking of Qin Yining willing to be willing to settle for the people in the cherished garden, and thinking about Qin Yining's previous benevolent actions, he couldn't help feeling moved, he shook his head and sighed, then cheered up: "Come on, everyone settle down first, and the food and the doctor will arrive later. The big guy must behave in the yard and pay attention to the lights..."

The treasurer Zhong Da took the local snakes who had come for help to settle the refugees.Unexpectedly, these moved refugees did not see any crooked minds at all. They did what they ordered, and they were arranged to be arranged as they were ordered, even more obedient than well-trained soldiers.

It seems that in the face of disasters, after the heart is truly shaken, there is also a side that touches the heart full of tolerance and love.

At this time, Qin Yining was as busy as the shopkeeper Zhong.

Only after hearing what was going on with the mother-in-law, she issued the right card, and someone from outside replied: "Girl, Miss Huining is back, she is kneeling outside the side door at this time."
