Chapter 1535 : His Majesty the King of Chu who worries about the country and the people

"All the porridge we received was given to my mother. She just gave birth to a little sister and she wants to eat. My eldest brother said that we are strong and we will be fine if we eat tree roots. We will get used to it if we eat it!" They were talking as they gnawed on the cake. At the end of the meal, they did not forget to clean up the remaining dregs in their hands. It seemed that they were very hungry.

"How pitiful your father is.

"During the flood last year, my father was swept away by the water in order to save my sister and me." The eldest boy's eyes were red. When he said this, the three brothers and sisters couldn't help sobbing and hugged each other tightly. Together, Shen Zhenzhu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the three children solemnly and said: "Come, sister will take you to the soup kitchen and get some food. You will starve if you haven't eaten for so long. !" As he said that, he led the three brothers and sisters to the soup kitchen.

The two maids looked at each other with sad expressions on their faces, and followed Shen Pearl towards the soup kitchen shack.

"Auntie, you've got it ready. Be careful, don't drop it!" Li Yu scooped a large bowl of porridge to a gray-haired old woman and gave instructions carefully, but he didn't feel at ease and handed the ladle to her. I gave it to Cheng Yuanzhen who was standing aside and let him take over for a while, then helped the old woman out of the crowd and sat down in a spacious place.[

"You, are you really the prince? You, are you the King of Chu? Am I dreaming? How can there be such a good prince like you these days? You personally bring things to us and repair them for us. He even reclaimed the house with us personally. The people of the royal family are all wealthy and delicate, but you, you really don't look like it!" The old woman looked at Lu Haozhan tremblingly while drinking her porridge.

"Yes, I also feel that I don't look like a prince. Mother-in-law, is this porridge okay?" Lu Haozhan picked his head and looked at the old woman with concern. While drinking the porridge, the old woman kept nodding her head and said: "Okay, okay. , it's simply more delicious than meat. I haven't smelled the fragrance of rice for almost three months. I...I really don't know what to say. If you hadn't come down this time, you don't know how hungry we would be. At that time, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive with my old bones. I have grown up in this year, hey, I don't know how many people have died in these few months! What a crime!" The old woman was full of words as she spoke. His face was stained with tears and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Now the county government has gradually distributed food to each household. You will be fine soon. Mother-in-law, don't worry, the hard times will eventually pass. Speaking of which, I am also very ashamed. I am in the capital. , I don’t know the hardships of you people, if I had known about this earlier, I would have come down earlier! I’m so sorry!” Lu Haozhan lowered his head and said with some self-pity.

"You have not sorry for us, you are the best official we have ever seen, really." The old woman looked at Lu Haozhan with great emotion.
