Knowing Qin Yun's suspicious nature!
Xie Qianmo turned and sat on the dragon chair directly in front.
"I summoned you here today for another matter to discuss!" Xie Qianmo said seriously.
"Your Majesty, please speak!"
"What are your thoughts on the disaster victims north of the city?"
Qin Yun said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I have already expressed my thoughts yesterday!"
Xie Qianmo leaned back on the dragon chair and said coldly, "The matter of the disaster victims must be handled today. Have you finalized your plan? This matter requires money!"
"I know, initial accommodation, food, and medicine all require money!"
"Qin Yun, if you want me to open the treasury, I can agree!" Xie Qianmo proactively revealed his thoughts!
Qin Yun smiled. "I never intended to use the national treasury's money from the start. I've said this before, we can confiscate the property of corrupt officials! Then there will be plenty of money!"
"I naturally agree to confiscate the assets of corrupt officials, but this requires evidence, and finding this evidence takes time. The disaster victims have already reached our Great Zhou territory, and this matter cannot be delayed!"
Xie Qianmo raised his eyes, his deep gaze fixed on Qin Yun. "Do you understand my meaning?"
"Your Majesty, I have a very good idea, I don't know if you can agree!"
Xie Qianmo became interested and asked curiously, "Oh? Tell me!"
"Initially, money was indeed the top priority. I don't want to use the national treasury's money, but I can use my own money! As long as...!" At this point, Qin Yun gave Xie Qianmo a meaningful look!
"As long as what?" Xie Qianmo already understood Qin Yun's intention but couldn't help but want to ask!
"After the assets of corrupt officials are confiscated, my pre-expended money can be reimbursed. That's all!"
Xie Qianmo smiled. "This idea is indeed excellent!"
Seeing that Xie Qianmo agreed, Qin Yun said excitedly, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Then... can I go back now?"
Xie Qianmo was somewhat reluctant, but he dared not be too aggressive now. "I bestow upon you a royal gold token. Seeing the gold token is like seeing me, and it may be of assistance in your case!"
"Also, resolve the disaster victim issue as soon as possible! I trust you!"
Xie Qianmo picked up the gold token from the dragon-patterned table and handed it to Qin Yun!
Qin Yun stepped forward to take the gold token!
The moment her hand touched the gold token, she couldn't lift it no matter how hard she tried!
"Your Majesty?" Qin Yun frowned. Why wasn't this scoundrel letting go? Wasn't he giving her the gold token?
"Qin Yun, won't you say something?" Xie Qianmo held the other end of the gold token, not letting go!
Qin Yun thought for a moment and said sincerely, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" She then bowed ninety degrees to express her gratitude!
Xie Qianmo twitched the corner of his mouth!
This kid is deliberately provoking him, right?
Does he need her thanks?
"Nothing else...?" Xie Qianmo pressed.
Qin Yun was a little confused. What exactly did this scoundrel want to hear?
In front of the officials, he was solemn and stingy with his words!
Why was he so hesitant with her, showing no imperial might!
It's just taking a gold token, she didn't ask for it proactively, he gave it to her himself!
To avoid offending Xie Qianmo, Qin Yun organized her thoughts in her mind!
"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven of our Great Zhou. When I investigate corrupt officials, I will still need to rely on you! I am deeply moved to receive the imperial gold token from Your Majesty today! You are the most handsome wise ruler of our Great Zhou!"
The most handsome wise ruler?
This statement instantly pleased Xie Qianmo!
He knew his appearance was handsome, but hearing it from Qin Yun felt different!
"Do you really think so? Is that true?"
Qin Yun nodded vigorously. "It's true!"
Xie Qianmo slowly released his hand!
After Qin Yun got the gold token, she sighed in her heart!
This scoundrel likes to be flattered?
She couldn't tell! She saw it clearly today!
In the future, she must speak nice words and flatter him!
"I take my leave!" Qin Yun said and turned to leave!
Seeing Qin Yun's disappearing back, Xie Qianmo smiled!
A moment later!
"Leng Ye!" Qin Yun whispered!
The next second, Leng Ye flashed before Xie Qianmo!
"My Lord, what are your orders!" Leng Ye knelt on one knee!
"Go and bring me the casual clothes I wore last time!"
Leng Ye was confused and asked uncertainly, "My Lord, which casual clothes are you referring to!"
"The night of the lantern festival!"
"Yes, My Lord!" Leng Ye stood up and went to prepare!
"Remember to bring me that mask too!"
"Yes!"
While Fang Jing prepared the usual court attire, casual wear, and night clothes were always prepared by Leng Ye for Xie Qianmo!
Not long after!
Leng Ye brought the casual clothes, and Xie Qianmo quickly put them on!
After putting them on, Xie Qianmo picked up the mask, a smile playing on his lips!
Leng Ye watched from the side and couldn't help but ask, "My Lord, it's not dark yet, are you going out?"
Xie Qianmo smiled. "Just now Qin Yun said... she would have to rely on me!"
Leng Ye broke out in a cold sweat!
What about everyone else?
My Lord, are you finding another way to meet Scholar Qin?
Leng Ye couldn't imagine what Cold Wind would think if he were here, he would definitely be stunned!
Their Lord was going incognito even in broad daylight for Scholar Qin!
Scholar's Mansion!
After Qin Yun returned to her mansion! She changed into casual clothes!
Then she asked Hong Fu to go to the accounting room, get fifty thousand taels of silver notes, and take them with her!
Afterward, she instructed Xiao Ju to take more than a dozen capable young servants to the market to purchase a large quantity of bedding and leather fabric!
She also bought a large amount of rice, wheat, vegetables, and some medicine for colds!
Fearing that Xiao Ju might forget, Qin Yun also made a list, writing down all the items needed on a piece of paper!
After giving the instructions, Qin Yun told everyone that after the procurement was complete, they should meet directly in the suburbs north of the city, and she would send someone to meet them!
Soon!
Qin Yun and Hong Fu left the mansion, accompanied by only a few maids and old women!
They got into the carriage!
Two hours later!
Qin Yun and her group arrived safely at a suburban area north of the city!
After alighting from the carriage!
Qin Yun looked around. It was a desolate grassland. The grass in the fields was all withered and yellow!
In the withered grass, there were disaster victims scattered in twos and threes!
Some were shouting to heaven and earth from hunger!
Some had fainted from hunger!
There were also many elderly, weak, sick, and disabled people who appeared to be very ill!
Qin Yun frowned!
It was impossible for these people to enter the city gate!
So they were driven to this place by the soldiers!
Qin Yun shook her head! She was very worried about these people and hoped that her efforts could help them!
Qin Yun walked around the disaster victims and got a general understanding of the situation! Kai Shu Ge
Then she leaned closer to Hong Fu and whispered something in her ear!
Hong Fu listened, nodded, and then went into the crowd of disaster victims to carefully examine them!
At the same time, four or five carriages approached from not far away!
Qin Yun was surprised!
Xiao Ju's efficiency was too high! She had just arrived, and Xiao Ju had already completed the task!
The key was... she hadn't sent anyone to meet them yet!
How did Xiao Ju find this place?
Qin Yun ran forward. As soon as she reached the first carriage, it stopped!
Qin Yun couldn't help but call out, "Xiao Ju, is that you?"
The carriage curtain slowly lifted!
A man in white emerged!
Qin Yun almost dropped her jaw!
This person looked like... Young Master Zheng!
