Daring, who stripped my prince of his vest?

Chapter 84: Wait in line, I will provide you with food

Dongfang Yan dispatched all his soldiers to maintain order at the scene throughout the whole process.

Looking at the majestic soldiers, the people did not dare to act rashly and just obeyed their orders. They were also afraid that if the officials were unhappy, they would not give them porridge, which would be a loss!

Yin Youyou thought that their behavior was of high quality. Although they were hungry, they still followed the rules and order. If everyone did not listen to the instructions and line up, how could they distribute porridge smoothly?

She took out the small microphone she had used at the anniversary celebration of Shanjian Building from Baicao's small bag. She stood on the high platform and said loudly, "Hello, fellow villagers! I am the Princess of Jin, and also the special envoy appointed by the Emperor for disaster relief. I am in charge of the disaster relief this time. Beside me are the Prince of Jin, the Prince of Nan, the Minister of Works, Lord Li, and the imperial doctors who are treating you for free."

"From today on, we will provide porridge to everyone here every day until everyone has water at home. Everyone can just bring their bowls here every day, and this princess will ensure that you are full."

"At the same time, please rest assured that we have brought our soldiers here to solve your food and water problems. We have already thought of a way to get water. Please give us some time. Soon every household will have water available."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene suddenly became lively. The people seemed to come back to life. They were all saved.

"The Emperor's grace is so great!"

The common people knelt down one after another. "I bow to thank the emperor. Long live the emperor. I thank the princess, the prince of Jin, the prince of Nan, and all the adults..."

"Everyone, get up!" Yin Youyou continued, "Everyone, get up and line up. Whoever lines up the most neatly will be given more food by me. Of course, if anyone messes up or causes trouble, don't blame me for being rude. I will ask him to come out and let the two princes deal with him."

Dongfang Mo and Dongfang Yan were like two silent giant towers, standing quietly on both sides of Yin Youyou.

Their presence is like two majestic Buddhas, giving people a strong sense of oppression. They are more like two burly and imposing bodyguards, enough to shock the whole audience.

However, in the hearts of both of them, there was an inexplicable sigh.

In front of Yin Youyou, they seemed to have lost their former prestige and had no place to display their talents. This seemingly delicate woman could handle such occasions with ease, using her small body to burst out amazing energy.

Yin Youyou stood in front of the crowd, like an eagle spreading its wings and soaring high, bold and careful, fearless. Her every move and look revealed a kind of firmness and confidence, which made people respect her.

At this moment, they were no longer noble princes, but seemed to be Yin Youyou's guardians, standing silently behind her and providing her with solid support.

After listening to Yin Youyou's words, the people lined up more actively, and even some people who were cautious about cutting in line also joined the line obediently. If you line up well, you can eat, but if you don't line up, you will go hungry and get beaten, which is really not worth it.

The porridge distribution process was carried out in an orderly manner.

When each of the people held a bowl of porridge and a potato in their hands, although they didn't know what it was, when they saw the white porridge in the bowl, their eyes suddenly turned red.

They couldn't believe that they could eat such good food one day, they were so touched. Usually, the governor gave them porridge, but they always ate thin rice porridge mixed with sand!

But now, looking at this full bowl of fragrant rice porridge, I suddenly felt reluctant to eat it.

"Mom, what is this yellow and soft thing? It's delicious." A little girl held a bowl and a potato in her hand and began to eat it voraciously.

"That! Mother doesn't know either, but I think the princess should know!"

The little girl followed her mother's gaze and looked at Yin Youyou. This sister was so beautiful, like a fairy. For some reason, she felt like she was attracted by magic when she saw Yin Youyou.

So she took her mother's hand and walked towards Yin Youyou.

When she was about a foot away from Yin Youyou, they stopped and the little girl asked loudly, "Princess, what is the name of this yellow soft food?"

As soon as the voice came out, her mother was scared to death and knelt down immediately. She didn't expect that the little girl wanted to ask the princess a question. She thought the little girl just wanted to see Yin Youyou.

Yin Youyou heard it was a little girl's voice, so she looked in the direction of the voice and saw a little girl of about seven or eight years old!

The little girl looked at her with bright eyes and answered, "This soft and sticky food is called potato. Isn't it delicious?"

The little girl was extremely excited. She didn't expect Yin Youyou to respond to her and be so gentle and kind.

"It's delicious. So delicious! Thank you, Princess."

Yin Youyou went over and gave her a false helping hand, "Madam, please get up quickly! The little girl is innocent and naive, and this princess will not blame you, so please get up now."

"I would like to thank the princess for not blaming me." The old lady thanked her repeatedly.

Yin Youyou took two more potatoes and gave them some, and said goodbye to them.

Dongfang Mo saw their actions and his heart couldn't help but soften.

The other side presented to him today was so different.

Yin Youyou, how many faces of yours do I not know?

Xu Laicai, who had never shown up from beginning to end, was now pacing anxiously in the mansion.

He wanted to go to the scene to take a look, but when he heard the report from his servants that what Princess Jin gave out at the scene was real rice porridge without any sand in it, he suddenly felt guilty and dared not come.

He had to think of some way to fool the Princess of Jin. A woman would definitely not think too much about it.

At this time, Zhu Yan came back and reported to Dongfang Mo: "Your Highness, I have learned that the rice porridge that Lord Xu gave as charity in the past was actually thin rice porridge mixed with a lot of sand, and there were only a few grains of rice in the bowl."

Dongfang Mo's face was gloomy. "Check, check his family background for me."

"Yes, Your Highness." Zhu Yan took the order and went down.

Dongfang Mo had not seen him at the scene, so he asked Zhu Yan to inquire about the situation, but he did not intend to hear this news.

Dongfang Yan looked into the distance, stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Third brother, in my opinion, Xu Laicai must have embezzled the disaster relief money. Just search his house and you will know. If a governor of Ning'an City is so rich, there must be a lot of things involved."

"Second brother, you're right. It's time to investigate Xu Laicai." Dongfang Mo agreed with his point of view.

The porridge distribution lasted from noon to evening time, when the people had finally received all the food.

They packed up their things and returned to Qilin Mansion as the sun set.

After everyone had dinner together, Yin Youyou asked Dongfang Mo, Dongfang Yan, the Minister of Works, and the imperial doctors to go to the hall to discuss the matter.
