Chapter 192 Don’t worry, I will never let you live like this
Compared with some people's speculations, some people even directly defended King Ji.
"In my opinion, the Crown Prince has gone too far. If the Crown Prince and Su Yuer, who had just become the Crown Princess, had not bullied others too much, King Ji would not have been able to take action..."
"That's right, when Ye Yining whipped King Ji in the past, King Ji couldn't even fight back. King Ji was so pitiful..."
"It is estimated that the Crown Prince is targeting King Ji this time because the Emperor wants to make King Ji's biological mother, Concubine Lan, his queen, and deliberately suppresses King Ji... King Ji has really suffered an unparalleled disaster..."
When such remarks reached the prince's ears, he was so angry that he choked on his own saliva and coughed.
"They are all a bunch of unruly people...a bunch of idiots..."
The prince was so angry that he couldn't help but curse.
But he didn't know that his remarks would soon be spread.
After all, which palace doesn’t have a few informants?
When the people in the capital knew that the prince had called them unruly people and idiots, they started talking about it in the market.
"The prince is a hypocritical person who doesn't allow others to say bad things about him. When he was in charge of the epidemic in the capital, he directly drove the patients out of the city without spending any time to save people..."
"Yes, the prince not only drove people out of the city, but also refused to allow outsiders to enter the city. I heard that the prince wanted to keep King Ji and the third prince out and prevent them from returning to the capital..."
"But if you look at King Ji, he and Ye Yining were helping us people treat the epidemic in the capital from the beginning. Ye Yining was even accused of poisoning the patients..."
"Yes, Ye Yining was really unlucky during that time. She was obviously following the Judge of Rongyuan and actively healing the people, but then she was taken over by others. After that, she, General Ye, Judge of Rongyuan, and King Ji,
We actively treated the people in Nanze City, Lianze City, Qinglin City, Beisang City, and the four cities, and also took out the anti-epidemic prescription and promoted it to the entire Northern Han Kingdom..."
Seeing that the prince's prestige had gradually fallen to the bottom and was being stepped on, someone jumped out of his trap.
"Have you heard? This morning the Ministry of Rites came out with news that Princess Ji donated most of her dowry to build ten schools for common people. Children who were orphaned due to the epidemic can go to school for free.
Moreover, half of the money donated by Princess Ji is directly used to support poor students..."
"Oh my God, is this true?" someone exclaimed.
At this time, someone in the crowd said with certainty: "It's absolutely true, my uncle is from the Ministry of Rites. He said that Princess Ji is the first woman with such a chivalrous heart in our Northern Han Kingdom in a hundred years..."
"Yes, this news is true. Mr. Lin, who lives next door to me, was invited to go to Hanguan City in the north this morning to be the dean of the academy. The academy he is going to is the new school that Princess Ji is planning to build...
…”
When someone heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he confessed: "I used to follow others to scold Princess Ji, but now that I think about it, I am really an asshole. I decided to make a donation to support some poor students."
This sentence suddenly made many people excited.
"I also want to donate..."
"Yes, Princess Ji's power is limited on her own, so we have to join in and make up for it, so that we can build more schools..."
"I decided to donate one hundred taels..."
"I want to donate one thousand taels..."
"Can I donate ten taels?" someone said in a low voice.
"Why not? With so many people, even just one tael or one penny can make a lot..."
Everyone was talking and talking about the prince's trend, and suddenly it turned into a donation organization meeting.
Some people even directly called people from the Ministry of Etiquette to start serious donation activities.
For a time, people could be heard praising Princess Ji and King Ji everywhere in the streets and alleys, and kind-hearted people were joining the donation team everywhere.
In this incident, the people who benefited most directly were the poor people and students from poor families in the Northern Han Country.
At this time, Ye Yining was reading in the study, so she didn't hear the news from outside, nor did she notice the change in her merit value.
When they were having dinner in the evening, she suddenly got a big start.
Because Ling Gui said to her very excitedly, "Master, you have received a total of 38,006 merit points today!"
"So much? What's wrong with me?"
Ye Yining found it incredible.
Ling Gui said with a smile: "Master has received sincere gratitude from many people. The fact that master wants to support poor students has touched many people!"
When Ye Yining was lost in thought, she heard her mother suddenly say, "Ning'er, you took out all your dowry and donated it. Do you think you don't have any money around? Mother will give you some later."
Ye Yining was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head, "Mom, I still have it! I didn't donate much money."
She just gave all the banknotes given to her by the emperor to Jun Jiuji.
What her parents gave her, what her uncle gave her, what she earned herself, and her dowry are all still there!
Mrs. Ye disagreed, "You have donated most of your dowry, how much is left? Come to my mother's room later."
At this time, Jun Jiuji, who had just come over, coughed lightly, "Mother-in-law, I still have a lot of money, and I won't let Xiao Ning'er suffer."
Mrs. Ye nodded, but still wasn't interested.
Even General Ye couldn't help but mention it when he was eating.
"Ning'er, it's a good thing to help others, but you can't do it to yourself, you know?"
Ye Yining glanced at Jun Jiuji, then nodded.
"Dad, I understand. If one day I have no money to eat, I will go back to the general's mansion."
General Ye was stunned for a moment, then looked at his daughter helplessly, and then smiled awkwardly at Prince Ji.
Jun Jiuji smiled and raised his hand to rub Xiao Ning'er's head, "Don't worry, I will never let you live like this."
Ye Yining could feel the seriousness in Jun Jiuji's eyes, so she tilted her head and smiled, her eyes filled with happiness.
Mrs. Ye also smiled slightly while watching the interaction between the two.
Although King Ji would not starve her Ning'er, after dinner, she still brought a large box of silver and handed it to her daughter privately.
"My daughter's family also needs to keep some personal money around them. From now on, they must not spend all their money, do you understand?"
Ye Yining heard her mother's instructions, then smiled and hugged her neck, whispering in her ear.
"Mom, I have a lot of money..."
She said the next words very softly, but the corners of Mrs. Ye's lips raised again and again.
After hearing her daughter's little secret, she gently patted her daughter's hand.
"Mom, I know, it's better to keep more money around you. Don't you think no one thinks it's too much money? When mom got married, your grandmother gave me almost half of the Lu family's property. I'm richer than your father.
Too much."
"Mom, please remember our agreement!" As she said this, she gave her mother ten boxes of number tags and a bunch of talismans.
Mrs. Ye smiled and nodded, "Okay, Mom, I understand. As long as you are well and safe, you must pay attention to safety on the way to Jiuhan Pass..."
"Hey, I know!"
That night, Ye Yining and her mother whispered for a long time, and Jun Jiuji was left alone in Ningxue Pavilion for a long, long time.
