After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

"How dare you target us? Do you really think we are vegetarians?"

"Don't they think we haven't seen the hidden greed in their eyes? They're still trying to get us. It's a good thing we didn't kill them."

This group of guards are the elite among the elite. Needless to say, their fighting strength is excellent, and they are also outstanding in all aspects. Otherwise, they would not have been sent to protect Sang Ye and others.

After this matter was resolved, the guards who were supposed to take turns sleeping could take turns sleeping, and those who were supposed to patrol could patrol, and it was completely unaffected.

The next day, it was dawn.

The villagers of Pingzi Village ate some porridge with a little meat in it, packed up their things, said goodbye to the guards, and set off.

They wanted to take advantage of the coolness in the morning and travel a little further so that they could find a place to rest when the heat was at its peak at noon.

They left for a long time before Sang Ye and the others got up one after another.

Since there were no outsiders around, Sang Ye and the others were finally able to wash up.

Even the baby Mu, who had just woken up, was carried away by the maid to wash up.

"Let's just walk on foot and get two carriages." Sang Ye felt relaxed after washing.

"If we don't have a horse-drawn carriage, we can use an ox-drawn or donkey-drawn cart. If we just walk, our legs will become useless."

After yesterday's practice, he has deeply realized that they cannot just walk and they still need a means of transportation.

Mu Baobao was not fully awake yet. He was yawning on the maid's shoulder and didn't hear what he said.

Mu Pingping looked like he had expected this and said, "Let's switch to an ox cart."

"A horse-drawn carriage is too conspicuous. An ox-drawn cart is better. Most villagers have ox-drawn carts. If we get two, it won't be so conspicuous."

After hearing his words, Sang Ye asked the guards to prepare two ordinary ox carts. "They should be like the ones used by the villagers. The interior can be decorated better, but the exterior must be simple."

The guard took the order and went to do this.

Hua Yun and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Having a bullock cart for transportation is better than not having one at all.

Now, their feet don't have to suffer anymore.

"After this, I finally understand the suffering of the common people." Shangguan Quan pounded his legs.

"I've only been gone for one day and I can't stand it anymore. Ordinary people have to do so much but earn so little."

Hua Yun rolled her eyes at him, thinking that these were all young masters who had never truly experienced hardship.

Even he, who often runs outside, can't stand it, let alone them.

"Alright, alright, let's wait for the oxcart to arrive before we continue our journey." Sang Ye smoothed things over. "Put an ice basin in the oxcart, so we can hold more of these things."

He really overestimated himself.

Sure enough, without putting it into practice, you can say anything big.

After resolving this matter, Sang Ye asked his followers when the people from Pingzi Village left.

The attendant told the time.

Sang Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Send a letter to the magistrate of the nearest town and ask him to allow the people of Pingzi Village to settle in the town."

They had passed by that town before. It was a nice town and the county magistrate was a nice person.

The attendant received the order and went to write the letter.

"Why do you want to help the people in Pingzi Village?" Hua Yun asked.

Sang Ye said, "The people in Pingzi Village are good people, so I wanted to help them."

Hua Yun was just asking.

Around noon, two ox carts were brought in by the guards.

From the outside, these are two very ordinary ox carts, the same kind commonly seen in the village, except that they have an extra cart shed.

But there is a lot of secrets inside.

Not only is it quite large inside, but the decoration is also low-key and luxurious, the kind that ordinary people can't see.

There are also three ice basins inside, but without a small table, they can't fit on it.

After having lunch, Mu Baobao and his group got on the carriage.

The guards and others took turns riding in the ox cart at the back.

As soon as they sat on the ox cart, Sang Ye and the others felt relaxed.

"It's really good to have a way to get around." Hua Yun didn't mind the crowd and sighed comfortably, "Finally, it's not so hot anymore."

"It's so hot today that it's killing me."

Sang Ye was reading the letter. "It's so hot. We have ice basins and other things, but for the disaster victims, it's hard for them to even get a drink of water."

Hua Yun understood what he meant. "There's no point in worrying about this now. I think the imperial court should have sent people to deliver disaster relief supplies."

Sang Ye said, "I hope so."

The imperial court has indeed sent people to deliver disaster relief supplies to various places.

A side hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Emperor Sheng was reading the memorial and asked the Crown Prince without looking up, "I heard from Mr. Cheng that you've been doing pretty well recently?"

The prince hung his head, "Maybe, Mr. Cheng hasn't scolded me much these days."

He had been scolded too much by Mr. Cheng before, so he had been wondering these past two days whether Mr. Cheng was going to increase the workload and that was why he was suddenly being so nice to him.

Emperor Sheng threw the memorial onto the imperial desk and looked up at him. "If you put the energy you spend on playing into your studies and government affairs, Mr. Cheng will promise not to scold you again."

"For example, your disaster relief plan this time was very good and was praised by the court officials."

This time, the prince suggested that instead of distributing relief supplies by the Ministry of Revenue as usual, as this would make it too easy for corruption to occur at every level, the court should arrange for people to transport them.

Establish rewards and punishments.

If you do well, you will be promoted; if you do not do well or are involved in corruption, not only will you be in trouble, but your entire family will be implicated.

Moreover, among this group of people transporting disaster relief supplies, there are people who are watching their every move.

The prince snorted twice, but didn't dare say anything more.

Emperor Sheng knew his thoughts all too well. "This country will be handed over to you sooner or later. Don't act so desperate in front of me."

The prince wanted to refute but didn't dare to, as he was the only son left by his father.

As for Prince Chang... let's not talk about him. He's a fool who's about to rebel and could end his life at any time.

Emperor Sheng pressed his throbbing eyebrows and said, "I'm telling you, if you dare to act like this again, I'll have Mr. Cheng and Rong Jing give you more lessons."

"I have no energy to do anything except playing all day long."

The prince almost got furious, but he said lazily, "I understand."

Wow, this lousy prince is truly not fit for a human being.

Emperor Sheng understood his son's temperament and knew that he would not slack off on important matters. "You should pay more attention to the disaster relief work. Someone is bound to make a fuss about it."

"The drought is severe in many places right now, and some people are hiding the extent of the disaster. These people will do anything to protect themselves."

The prince suppressed his reluctance and bowed, "Don't worry, father. I will take care of this matter."

Even if he no longer wanted to be the crown prince, he had already been in this position and had to do his job well and not bring about any negative impact due to his bad temper.

Especially in the current drought situation, we cannot do such things.

Emperor Sheng hummed and turned to another matter: "I heard that the Hua family sent you a letter?"

"How do you miss the Hua family?"
