It's not my intention to hurt people

However, some people are too ambitious. If they don't hurt anyone, they will be sorry for the people in this world and their hard work over the years.

The prince still didn't speak, but looked ahead in a trance, as if he was struggling or making a choice.

"Your Majesty," the eunuch on one side came in from the outside and whispered, "Little Prince Xi from Prince Shuo's Mansion is here."

"Is Xi'er here?"

Emperor Wenyuan quickly put down the pen in his hand and said, "Let him come in quickly."

After the eunuch bowed to Emperor Wenyuan, he went out. When he came in again, he was followed by Lao Yuxi and the prince.

The two of them also bowed to Emperor Wenyuan.

"Get up quickly."

Emperor Wenyuan stood up and walked down. He stretched out his hand and patted Lao Yuxi on the shoulder. "It's been a bit uneasy outside these days. You don't want to go out. Your father only has children like you. This time If something happens, how will you explain to him?"

Emperor Wenyuan really loved and worried about these children in Prince Shuo's Mansion.

Even though he now knew that Lao Yuxi had brought back a lot of food, which might not even be available from the national warehouse, but he was able to transport it back, he did not say a word to him as the emperor.

But he still put his first concern on recovery instead of questioning.

"Xier, thank you for your concern, uncle. Xi'er is fine."

Lao Yuxi also laughed sincerely. At this time, his features were clear and his eyes were almost curved into crescent moons. This smile made people like him endlessly, and he couldn't even dislike him at least half of it.

Who allowed all the children of Prince Shuo to have good looks?

"Xi'er has something to talk to the emperor's uncle."

"Hmm..." Emperor Wenyuan nodded slightly and sat on his dragon chair. In fact, he also knew what Lao Yuxi was talking about, and it was nothing more than food.

This is when Lao Yuxu told Emperor Wenyuan about the matter of getting food. The second prince mentioned this matter just now, just to make him feel guilty and fearful, but he didn't know. They did not feel guilty towards anyone because of this matter. They acted upright in Prince Shuo's palace and sat upright. They had never done anything to hurt the people or endanger the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Where does the guilt come from?

"So my mother asked me and my third brother to work separately. We asked the third brother to send part of the grain stored in Yipinxiang to my grandfather, and asked Xi'er to send the other part back to the capital. Now there is Put it at Xiangjue Temple in preparation for a food shortage, when a large number of refugees will flow into the imperial city. For this food, Xiangjue Temple will naturally take it out to save those people."

In fact, when they left Beijing to collect food, they had some luck. Mother said that this food shortage will occur to some extent, and the only final result will be whether it is serious or not.

No matter what happens to these grains, they will not be taken back in vain.

At least it can save the lives of many people in winter, and it will be more than a loss if it is sent to my grandfather, who is already short of food and clothing.
