After traveling through time, I became the aunt of the loyal dog emperor

Today, the Six Star Terrace is deserted. Wan Ning sits aside and patiently flips through the booklet, but the numbers on the booklet are still far from the target.

Zhu Zi sat on the side with a sad face, holding her head with both hands and muttering to herself in great worry: "Princess, please don't turn it over. The number won't increase even if you turn it over again. No one came to donate food today. What should we do?"

"Yes, today the people of Nanye are all taking a wait-and-see attitude. The day for delivering relief grain is getting closer, and we are afraid that we may not be able to complete it." Shuiyue also frowned and muttered.

Wan Ning appeared calm, and continued to sit there and count. She calmly explained, "The people have just experienced war, and their lives are barely adequate. Even if they have surplus food, they are more cautious than before. The original goal of donating food was not to take into account the food in the hands of the people. We just wanted them to show their support and make it more lively."

Everyone looked at her in surprise, waiting for the princess to reveal the answer. Wan Ning looked around at the puzzled faces around her, put down the booklet, and continued: "Our target has always been the nobles and big businessmen in Nanye. The people can only make ends meet, and it is really unbearable to calculate. But the nobles and big businessmen are different. What they reveal between their fingernails is quite objective. Since they enjoy the service, they must always take some responsibilities!"

"Princess, what you said is true, but how can we make them reveal some of it?" Zhu Zi spread her hands, very confused.

Wan Ning smiled and answered confidently, "Wait."

Suddenly he remembered something and said to Fang Xiong standing beside him, "Master Fang, no matter how much grain there is in the end, the transportation of grain to Sangcheng cannot be delayed. Please arrange for the staff to prepare today and load the grain on the truck and set off tomorrow as planned."

"Yes, princess."

Fang Xiong received the order and went to make some arrangements. After spending these days together, Fang Xiong had completely changed his view of the princess in front of him. He originally thought that she was just a pampered princess hidden deep in the palace, but he didn't expect that she was both civil and martial, and moreover, she was intelligent, so he had no doubts about her arrangements.

At this time, Wei Yu, who had been standing beside Fang Xiong, walked up to Wan Ning with a flattering smile on his face, bowed all the time, and asked in a very polite manner: "Princess, what can I do?"

Wan Ning also had some connection with this Lord Wei. A few months ago, he was still the county magistrate of Nanye, and he lived comfortably by secretly reselling six-star posts. Because of Wan Ning's appearance, the things that everyone knew were leaked and investigated, so he was demoted to guard the city gate.

"Master Wei, shouldn't you be working on Nanye's security right now? How come you have the time to stay here with us?"

"Princess, you are too kind. Many people have contributed to Nanye's public security, and I, Wei, also want to do my part for the victims. Besides, things have their priorities, and I want to do my best for you, Princess."

He didn't really want to help the victims, he was just worried that he would be held accountable after the problem was resolved. He could not afford to be held responsible for locking the victims outside the city gates, so he was anxious to find someone to support him.

Wan Ning looked around and saw nothing that could be assigned to him. He also thought that Lord Wei was originally a wing of the Emperor's party, so it would be inconvenient to keep him around for too long. So he thought of an idea and called Lord Wei over.

"To be honest, there is something that I need to trouble Lord Wei with, and it really requires you. If you do a good job, I will go to the emperor and say a few good words for you. Lord Wei, are you willing?"

"I am willing to do so. Princess, I will follow your instructions and do my best to serve you until my death..."

"Okay, okay, there's no need to say this anymore. Because of Liu Xueyu's rumors, no one is coming to Liuxingtai to donate. If this continues, the plan to raise food will fail. You know Nanye City well, so why don't you take people to explain everything door to door in each street, how about that?"

After hearing Wan Ning's arrangement, Wei Yu naturally understood that this was not an easy job. Before he could refuse, Zhu Zi quickly handed him the gongs and drums from a few days ago: "Master Wei, you can use this gong and drum. I believe you will be able to attract many people to listen to your rumor refutation."

Wei Yu looked up at Wan Ning, and had no choice but to take the gongs and drums from Zhu Zi, and called a few officers and soldiers who were originally guarding the city to walk through the streets with him. They beat the gongs and drums as they walked, and as the sound of the gongs and drums gradually faded away, the Six Star Terrace finally became quiet.

Just as they sat down to plan how to implement the subsequent grain-raising plan, suddenly a louder sound was heard in the distance, and gradually moved towards the Six-Star Platform.

"Could it be that Lord Wei really brought the grain here?" Zhu Zi stood up and looked at Wan Ning with wide eyes and a puzzled look.

"That's a good thing. Let's go and have a look." Wan Ning stood up from the chair, lifted her skirt and walked out quickly. Before she had walked far, she saw a tall signboard with the three characters "Cui Can Lou" written on it in the team. Standing at the front of the team was the smartest little maid she had ever seen in Cui Can Lou - Ming Zhu.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the mighty procession marched all the way to the Six Stars Platform and stopped. Mingzhu smiled slightly and greeted Wan Ning very respectfully. Then he turned around and called to the people around him: "Come on, unload all the food from the cart and place it in front of the platform."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man quickly stood up and directed the others to unload all the food from the carriage. The food piled up there was really as spectacular as a small mountain. Carefully identifying the young man in charge was the one who had asked Mingzhu questions in the Brilliant Building last time, and he was still following Mingzhu to learn from her.

"Miss Mingzhu, why is this?" Wan Ning asked.

"These were prepared by my shopkeeper. She was out doing business these days, so she didn't learn about the disaster victims in time. She heard that the princess was here to raise food for the people of Sangcheng, so she specially purchased a batch of food and warm clothes and sent them back. They just arrived, so she hurriedly sent them over. I hope it didn't delay the princess's important business."

"No, no, you guys came just in time."

"My shopkeeper has a few words for me to pass on. She said: helping each other is the tradition of Chu State. As merchants of Chu State, we should bear in mind our responsibilities and not let our compatriots starve and freeze because of rumors. Since it is a rumor, the truth will come out one day. The shopkeeper also specifically told me to tell you that Chu State is lucky to have a princess like you who cares about the people."

Seeing Mingzhu had just finished speaking, the leading young man seized the opportunity to lead others to shout: "May Princess Le Yan be blessed, and may Princess Le Yan live a thousand years." The atmosphere was very good, and the people watching the excitement were also mobilized, and some quietly left to inform their own shopkeepers.

Wan Ning took out a card from the side, wrote down the name of Cuican Building and the number of donated items on it, and gave it to Mingzhu for confirmation. Unexpectedly, Mingzhu waved her hands and refused.

"My shopkeeper also said that she just wanted to do her part for the victims. This is her responsibility as a businessman from Chu Country. She is too embarrassed to participate in the ranking. Princess, you go ahead and we will go back to the Brilliant Building first." After saying that, she turned to the young man who had shouted the loudest just now and said, "Mingxu, we will take our people away first."

So a group of people came in a mighty procession and left in a mighty procession.

"Princess, this Brilliant Tower has always been low-key, why is it so high-profile today?"

"You'll find out later."
