Nangong Jiu shook his head repeatedly.

"We have already reminded Miss He that we are not going to interfere with other people and matters.

Next, I will practice in the morning and spend the afternoon with you."

Empress Chen pulled the little guy into her arms and said, "Your grandfather is very happy. He said that if you live in the palace, you can accompany him to court every day."

"Ah? Going to court every day, won't that drive those court officials crazy?"

Queen Chen covered her mouth and laughed.

Liu Hao smiled and continued, "Your royal grandfather has endless state affairs to deal with every day, and he is indeed very tired.

We are not often in the capital. Since your royal grandfather wants you to accompany him, you should just accompany him. Just consider it as a way to relieve his fatigue.

As for cultivation, just avoid the morning court session."

"Okay! I'll accompany my grandfather to the morning court, but it's a bit early to go to the morning court, so I have to go to bed early."

"Go quickly. If you sleep late, you won't be able to get up in the morning." Queen Chen urged.

Nangong Jiu agreed, and was already very happy.

Good luck to you old guys.

Hehe...you can’t blame me for this!

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

This evening at midnight.

After finishing his work, Emperor Dongling returned to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity from the Imperial Study and happily chose gifts for his two grandchildren himself.

"Laifu, what do you think of this pair of jade pendants?"

"Of course it is very good! Your Majesty, you should rest now. It is almost three quarters past midnight."

Only after repeated urging from Eunuch Wei did Emperor Dongling lie down to rest.

Not long after he fell into a drowsy sleep, the leader of the secret guards, Ajie, came hurriedly to report.

"Your Majesty, Jing County encountered a snowstorm. Jing County Magistrate Zhao Fuhai sent someone to send a letter for help. The situation is urgent, so I had no choice but to wake you up."

Emperor Dongling sat up suddenly.

"Send it over quickly!"

Emperor Dong Ling took the letter, anxiously tore it open, and after roughly scanning the contents, his heart sank.

"Laifu, what time is it now?"

"It's the beginning of the Yin hour!"

"Where is the Fifth Prince staying?"

"Because the Second Prince's family lives in Kunning Palace, the Fifth Prince has returned to the Prince's Mansion."

"Ajie, go find him for me!"

Eunuch Wei said with some concern: "Your Majesty, there is still an hour before the morning court session. You should lie down and rest for a while."

"How can I rest after such a big incident? Ah Jie, go quickly, I have something to discuss with him!"

Ajie agreed and hurried out of the Yangxin Palace.

Emperor Dong Ling leaned against the head of the bed, frowning: "Lai Fu, bring Jiu Er here during the morning court session. We may have to trouble her again this time."

"Yes!"

After giving the order, Emperor Dongling lay down on his side.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The court officials were waiting in the main hall, discussing the fact that Liu Hao had given birth to twins.

"Your Highness is so lucky!"

"It's time for the Fifth Prince to marry and have children."

"That's right, I wonder which daughter of a rich family could catch the eyes of a few nobles and gain such great wealth?"

"The Emperor has long intended to establish a crown prince..."

When Emperor Dongling strode into the hall holding Nangong Jiu, Liu Xuan and Eunuch Wei, the noisy hall immediately became quiet.

Some court officials murmured quietly.

"Why is she here again? Don't children usually sleep until noon?"

"Is she an ordinary child? Other children of her age can hardly speak fluently."

Nangong Jiu listened to all the voices and argued with the court officials in his heart.

[Who told you that children must sleep until noon? ]

[Hmph, you are right, I am really not an ordinary child.

You don’t want to see me, but I just don’t want to see you, so I come here every day to piss you off to death…】

Emperor Dong Ling listened to Nangong Jiu's inner thoughts. If it were any other time, he would have laughed out loud three times. Unfortunately, he had something important on his mind today and could not laugh.

"At midnight last night, I received a letter from Jing County asking for help. Jing County was hit by a snowstorm and the people were in dire straits and in urgent need of rescue.

I have discussed this with the Fifth Prince. In weather like a snowstorm, what the people need most are food and clothing.

Mr. Zeng from the Ministry of Revenue, please immediately count the supplies in the treasury and send them to Jing County immediately."

The book was once famous.

"Your Majesty, Jing County is densely populated, and it has only been winter for a short time. If we only rely on the supplies in the national treasury, it will probably not be enough."

"Then use the treasury silver to buy from merchants and the people!"

"But we can't use all the silver in the treasury here. We have to keep some for emergencies..." Zeng Mingshu was so anxious that sweat was pouring down his forehead even in the middle of winter.

Nangong Jiu looked at Zeng Mingshu who was getting anxious, then secretly looked at his own pocket.

[The gold and silver in the bags are enough to buy food and supplies for the people of Jing County for several years, but I can't take it all out.]

[These court officials are like mice in the field storing winter food. They are well-off. We need to make them bleed a little.]

[Otherwise, they would have nothing to do after eating their fill, and would do things like compare concubines, which is not acceptable.]

The more the Emperor Dongling listened, the more he thought it made sense, so he said to his ministers: "The country is in crisis, and I hope that all of you will lend a hand and help me help the people of Jing County get rid of the current predicament."

After saying this, Nangong Jiu raised her little hand and said, "Grandfather, let Jiuer handle the matter of collecting disaster relief supplies.

Jiuer promised to collect enough disaster relief supplies within one day."

[As for the transportation, it is also fully handed over to Jiuer, and the garrison near Jing County will be sent to rescue the affected people and maintain order.]

Emperor Dongling happily agreed: "My granddaughter is only two years old, but she knows how to worry about the country and the people, and she voluntarily raised food and supplies for disaster relief.

I hope that all the ministers will actively cooperate and overcome the difficulties together!

Mr. Xiao from the Ministry of War, immediately order the garrison troops near Jing County to go to Jing County to rescue the people affected by the disaster and distribute food and supplies. "

Xiao Lin stepped out: "I obey your order!"

Nangong Jiu stood up from Emperor Dongling and stood on the dragon throne.

“Eunuch Wei, take a book and write it down. I, Nangong Jiu, have donated the proceeds from my fiefdom over the past two years, totaling two hundred thousand taels of silver and five million catties of grain.

My fellow ministers, if you have grain, please donate grain; if you have silver, please donate silver; you can also donate clothes and cloth for the winter.

You can't hide your situation from me, so don't come and cry poor in front of me."

After Nangong Jiu finished speaking, Liu Xuan was the first to express his opinion: "This palace will donate 50,000 taels of silver, 20,000 catties of grain, and a certain amount of cloth and ready-made clothes."

Nangong Honglie continued: "My general's mansion donated 5,000 taels of silver, 10,000 catties of grain, and a certain amount of cloth and ready-made clothes."

General Chu stepped out and said, "My Chu government donated five thousand taels of silver, ten thousand catties of grain, and a certain amount of cloth and ready-made clothes."

Then came Wang Peng, Chen Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and Zhu Chengfu of the Ministry of Works...

Nangong Jiu thanked everyone with a smile.

"Thank you all, I, Nangong Jiu, will remember your kindness in my heart. If there is any need in the future, I will repay you a thousandfold!"

When other ministers saw this, they were afraid of falling behind and being caught by Nangong Jiu, so they also kept in mind the words "I will repay you a thousandfold" and vied with each other to sign up for their own names.

Emperor Dong Ling listened silently at the side, then gently embraced the little guy and kissed him.

If I were to show up myself, I'm afraid these ministers would make excuses that they don't have extra silver and supplies at home.

As expected of Jiuer, as soon as she shows up, she makes them all more active than anyone else.

Nangong Jiu whispered in Emperor Dongling's ear: "Grandfather, is this enough?"
