Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

In the majestic capital, at the foot of the emperor, a group of disaster victims are begging here so confidently, and the methods are quite bad, which makes people feel incredible.

The emperor suddenly thought of Mu Yunyao's voice to stop him before, and then thought of what the commoner said just now about Niyunfang and Buxianlou's gruel giving, and he thought a little more: "Yunyao, do you know about this matter? "

Mu Yunyao nodded bluntly: "Yes, after I came back, the shopkeepers of Niyunfang and Buxianlou both told me about this matter, saying that there were a group of disaster victims from Jiangnan who had nothing to do all day and lived in Niyunfang. After Hebuxianlou received the porridge, they begged along the street. The method was very annoying, so I asked these two places not to give them porridge in the future. It cannot be completely rejected."

"Shuntian Mansion doesn't care about such things?"

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly: "Even if Mr. Shen wants to take care of it, I'm afraid he will be powerless. After all, their identities are disaster victims, and your majesty has already issued a decree that unless the epidemic occurs, all cities must not refuse the surrounding disaster victims to enter the city. , so Kyoto is no exception. Mr. Shen can’t drive them away, he can only let the guards who patrol the streets find out and drive them out, but the guards have limited manpower, and these disaster victims can move around, so they can’t be controlled if they want to.”

The emperor nodded: "Is it the same with the disaster victims in the past?"

"Then I don't know. However, I asked the embroiderers who work in Niyunfang. Many of them said that they had never encountered such a situation before. They also said that the emperor is tolerant of the people and strict with the officials. That's why the people are not afraid of officials, that's why those disaster victims dare to be so unscrupulous."

"In this way, there is still my reason." The emperor didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

Mu Yunyao replied with a smile: "The emperor has strict requirements on officials, so my Dali Dynasty has a clear political life, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Go on, uncle and grandpa don’t need to be so concerned, after a while, the city in the south of the Yangtze River will be rebuilt, and many people will return to their hometowns, and even if some people stay, someone will count their household registrations and help them resettle.”

The emperor nodded, put down the unhappiness in his heart, and concentrated on wandering around with Princess Yide.

Near noon, a few people came to Shengyuan Building, and Mu Yunyao suggested: "Grandmother, uncle, we have been walking all morning, why don't we go to Shengyuan Building to have a rest, I heard that the lake fish here made a Absolutely, many guests come here admiringly.”

"Okay." Several people entered the door, and the shopkeeper placed them in the private room on the second floor with a wink.

There was the sound of gongs and drums outside, followed by bursts of cheers. When Mu Yunyao heard the sound, her eyes flickered slightly, and she lowered her eyes gently.

The emperor was a little curious: "It's not a solar term today, why is it so lively?"

"Listen to this music, it should be someone getting married."

The emperor walked to the window, opened the window and looked downstairs, with a glance, his eyebrows frowned slightly.

I saw a group of beggars kneeling in front of the welcoming team, as if they were begging.

Someone who greeted the relatives stepped forward to persuade them, but the beggars just kowtowed vigorously and had no intention of leaving. Afterwards, the people who greeted the relatives brought the money and distributed it one after another. The beggars still kowtowed, and finally some people said that they should be arrested to meet the officials, so the beggars reluctantly moved out of the way.

"It's really unreasonable," the emperor looked displeased, "These people are really greedy."

Mu Yunyao didn't make a sound, and concentrated on making tea.

Princess Yide picked up the teacup and took a sip, with a smile on her lips: "The emperor really can't rest for a moment, please sit down quickly, and tell Shen Binghuai to teach these disaster victims well. gone."

The emperor was about to close the window when he heard an exclamation from below. He looked intently, and saw an officer patrolling the street coming and grabbing a beggar, and the beggar writhed uncontrollably, and suddenly two ingots of white silver fell from the beggar's tattered clothes.

A sharp color suddenly flashed in the emperor's sight. Because the distance was slightly farther, the emperor couldn't see it very clearly, but judging from the appearance of the silver, it was fifty taels to say the least. The disaster victims begging along the street actually have fifty taels of silver in their hands?

"Your Majesty, what's the matter, your face is so ugly?"

"Sister Huang, I just saw that there was about fifty taels of silver hidden in a disaster victim."

Princess Yide frowned: "It's impossible, isn't the emperor mistaken?"

"No, that person has already been arrested by the officials patrolling the streets." The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and he turned his head and told Xu Li, "Have someone secretly follow those victims and check their whereabouts."

When the beggar with taels of silver was caught just now, the reaction of the others was too panicked, and they all fled out clutching their shirts on their chests, as if they also had taels of silver on them...

The emperor sat back on his seat, contemplating this matter with frowned eyebrows, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Princess Yide apologetically: "Sister Huang, I agreed to go out with you for a stroll and do some shopping. , Who knew that such a thing would happen, I was disappointed."

"It's important to care about the people's affairs. If the emperor delays the business to help me celebrate my birthday, I will really feel sorry."

Not long after, the guards who went to investigate came back: "Reporting to the emperor, after the disaster victims who had hidden silver were arrested just now, the officials noticed that something was wrong, and reported the matter to Mr. I inquired along the way and found an abandoned house in the west of the city, where many beggars were caught, and a lot of silver was found in the search, the exact amount is being counted, but at least there are thousands of taels of silver.”

The emperor's eyes sharpened sharply: "The beggar carries so much silver on him... Interrogate carefully to find out this matter."

Princess Yide stood up and said, "Your Majesty, since you have something to do, go and do it first. It's good that Yanhan and Yunyao are with me. The business is important."

"Sister Huang, Shen Binghuai is doing things in a down-to-earth way. Let him check with me and rest assured. Besides, I'm waiting when I go back now, and I'm not in a hurry."

"That's fine."

After a meal, the emperor was a little absent-minded, but Princess Yide saw it but didn't try to persuade him. Just after eating, Shen Binghuai hurried over with his people.

"The humble minister sees the emperor, sees His Royal Highness the eldest princess."

"But have you found out about the victims?"

Shen Binghuai's face was very ugly, and he took out two ingots of silver from his sleeve: "Your Majesty, please look at these ingots."

Xu Li hurried forward to wrap the silver in a handkerchief and sent it to the emperor.

"What happened to the silver?"

"Reporting to the emperor, there are traces of being cut at the bottom of these silver coins. I guess that these silver coins should be official silver, and someone deliberately cut the official silver mark at the bottom."

"what?"
