Since things are going to be sold, it would be best to call on the royal family and ladies as the Crown Princess.
Yuan Qingling shared this idea with everyone, and everyone agreed, especially Yuan Yongyi. Since she can't go to the battlefield, she will definitely be willing to help if she can.
Princess Sun said: "In a few days, Princess An and An Zhi will return to the capital. Jinghe happens to be there too, so let's get together and handle this matter."
She looked at Mrs. Yao and said: "I have to trouble Mrs. Yao to think of a way to mobilize everyone. I have to admit that it is better for you to host it. None of our sisters-in-law can do anything."
Mrs. Yao smiled and said, "Of course I am very happy. Since everyone trusts me, I will take over this matter. It is nothing more than building momentum. Fortunately, everyone is paying attention to this war now. The emperor is driving the battle in person, and the momentum is huge.
For everyone to donate money, they only need to say a word of support for the Supreme Emperor, and there is no need to say much else."
Everyone sat together and made plans. They could donate money, food, ironware or even cotton-padded clothes. All donations would be received and coordinated by Mrs. Yao and sent to Xiuzhou Prefecture.
The royal daughter-in-law took the initiative, and the crown prince took the lead. Many people in the capital donated money. In addition to the royal relatives and some wives, the wives of wealthy businessmen in the capital also donated money. For a time, the Chu Palace was bustling with people coming and going to donate money.
Absolutely.
In just three days, more than a million silver and countless supplies were collected. By the time Princess An returned to the capital, all the fundraising had been completed. She used the money to buy food and wages, and arranged for people to send the supplies together with them immediately.
Xiuzhou Prefecture.
This matter reached the ears of Emperor Ming Yuan. Emperor Ming Yuan was very surprised and very happy. He smiled and said to Eunuch Mu Ru: "The royal family is united like never before."
Eunuch Mu Ru suddenly had a rainbow fart, "It is the Emperor's great blessings that unite the royal family to fight against the enemy."
Emperor Ming Yuan rolled his eyes at him and said: "What kind of great blessings can come to heaven? Everything depends on man, man can conquer nature. This time I will commend Mrs. Yao well, and I will also make a decree to commend those who participated in donating money and materials."
Eunuch Mu Ru asked in confusion: "Although Mrs. Yao presided over this matter, it was the Crown Princess who initiated and called for it, and other princesses also participated. Why only commend Mrs. Yao? I'm afraid the other princesses will feel a little uncomfortable.
."
Emperor Ming Yuan shook his head, "This time, I really have to wrong the Crown Princess and the other princesses. Meng Yue is about to marry me. I have to find a way to highlight Mrs. Yao's contribution and create some reputation for her. Although now
I was granted the title of Madam, but no one took it seriously. In addition, she was originally the princess, and Meng Yue was also the princess. Therefore, I thought of giving the original Prince Ji's Mansion back to her, so that she could build a mansion and enjoy it.
The food can also be Meng Yue's backing."
Eunuch Mu Ru suddenly understood, "The emperor is still thoughtful."
"I have to think about my granddaughters. Their father was so rebellious and unethical. He was convicted and demoted, and died in such a miserable way. The people in your noble mansion always looked down upon them. Only with the grace I gave them, mother and daughter.
Only when someone lifts her up can she find a good marriage for Meng Yue."
Eunuch Mu Ru nodded silently, it is indeed true. Now that Princess Meng Yue is studying medicine next to the old lady, she can be regarded as a public figure. Generally, people in noble houses do not think highly of her. She married at a low age and wronged the princess, so she can think of ways to promote her.
stand up.
The eldest prince really has been struggling for so many years and has put himself and his family into it, so why bother?
However, after the decree was issued, Mrs. Yao said she did not want the original residence of Prince Ji. She requested to enter the palace to see the saint, and Eunuch Mu Ru took her into the palace.
She said that Meng Yue was living a happy life now, and that in the future she would not necessarily have to marry high, but she could marry low. As long as she liked it, and as long as the other person's character was decent, she didn't think it mattered even if he was from a poor family.
As for Prince Ji's Mansion, it was a nightmare for the three of them, mother and daughter, and they were unwilling to return to that place.
Mrs. Yao was very bold and told Emperor Ming Yuan what she was thinking without hiding a word. She thought Emperor Ming Yuan would be furious, but after hearing this, he just thought for a moment and said: "In this case, let it be up to you, you say
You may be right. A brother raised in a noble family's mansion may not be as comfortable as a well-off boy from a poor family."
Mrs. Yao burst into tears of gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at her and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Mrs. Yao said: "I will live like this from now on. Although I am not as rich and powerful as before, my heart is peaceful and I always feel more comfortable than before."
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "You are still young. If you want to find another family, I will not stop you."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yao immediately raised her head and looked at Emperor Ming Yuan in astonishment.
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "As for this matter, the imperial concubine has tested my words. Of course, I don't encourage you to do this, but if you do it, there will be someone to accompany you all the way in the future, and I can see the results."
, you have called me father for so many years. I have long regarded you as half of my daughter, and I don’t want to see you alone. You only have two daughters. How lonely will you be after your daughter gets married?"
Mrs. Yao never dreamed that these words would come out of the emperor's mouth. She felt sour in her heart and tears immediately fell down. She even said: "Father, I...I never thought about it."
Emperor Ming Yuan said gently: "Then you might as well think about it. When he comes back from the victorious battle, I will mark his merits. If you all have this intention, then I must grant the marriage. In this way, no one dares to look down upon it.
Princess."
Mrs. Yao was immediately stunned, not even wiping away her tears as she looked at Emperor Ming Yuan in horror.
Emperor Ming Yuan said: "Don't be surprised. The imperial concubine told me. She objected on the surface, but she persuaded me for a long time. She really loves you. I sent someone to check him, and he is indeed a reliable person."
And now I am following the people from the Lenglang Clan to send weapons to the battlefield to fight for the country. I have already sent a message to him. If he can annihilate a thousand enemies this time, I will betroth you to him."
Mrs. Yao was so shocked that she couldn't say a word. This was not what she wanted.
If the emperor seals Suitian, then he is a member of the imperial court. With Suitian's temperament, he will definitely not be happy, but for her, he will force himself and accept all the conditions set by the emperor.
She didn't dare to speculate on what conditions the emperor would offer, but she knew that the emperor would not care about the rest of her life for no reason. For him, enfeoffing her a small town was enough to show the royal grace.
Marrying her to Ruitian with great fanfare, and the marriage was granted, there must be some deal involved.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yao raised her head and asked: "Father, what do you want to destroy the sky to do for you?"
When Emperor Ming Yuan heard this, his eyes were full of admiration and said: "I have always thought you are very smart, and it is true. Don't worry, I will not embarrass him. I just hope that he can win over all the dead soldiers with werewolf bones to become the prince."
