Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

"Actually, I just feel that we have already reached the depths of winter. If it snows heavily, the common people will suffer. I wonder if the court will take any action now."

Qin Yu had already woken up, but unexpectedly felt a chill. When she opened the door, it was snowing heavily outside. Qin Yu couldn't help but shiver. She hadn't realized that it was already deep winter.

"I didn't expect it to be winter already. It really surprised me. Go to a clothing shop and ask them to make some warm clothes for the children."

Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Mo Yun must have rushed to this place.

Upon arriving at the medical shop, they discovered that the shop was short of some fabric. Nowadays, if they wanted fabric, they had to import it from Jiangnan.

Mo Yun then told Qin Yu about this matter.

Qin Yu fell into deep thought, and suddenly remembered that there was a lot of fabric in the Princess's mansion for the exam. So he asked Mo Yun to go to the Princess's mansion's storage to get some fabric and then have everyone make it. Qin Yu also decided to send some people to Jiangnan to purchase more.

"Your Highness, these are matters that you shouldn't be handling here. Why is Your Highness doing these things? Doesn't Your Highness feel even a little tired?"

Hearing Lin Ruohua say this, Qin Yu looked up at her. "There's something I want to tell you. I'm also looking for work, aren't I? Since I'm the eldest princess, I have an obligation to do these things."

Lin Ruohua listened to Qin Yu's words and felt that Qin Yu's words made a lot of sense.

But these are things that Qin Yanling should indeed do. I wonder what kind of solution the court will come up with.

At this moment, in the imperial court, Qin Yanling naturally looked at the officials below and brought up the matter directly to them. Unexpectedly, the officials hesitated at this time.

"Your Majesty, my household is indeed lacking in fabric, and I cannot produce any at the moment."

Qin Yanling was furious upon hearing their words, but Li Baifeng stepped forward and offered to donate some fabric from his residence.

Seeing that Li Bai and Feng Du had already made donations, wouldn't it be a bit unreasonable for Prime Minister Xu not to express his opinion?

Shangguan Mufeng naturally came out as well. After he came out, he mentioned his views and even made sarcastic remarks, which made some of the officials look bad.

And these officials must have been furious at that moment.

None of them had ever imagined that things would develop to this point.

At this moment, they were truly in a state of anger but unable to kill them. They wished they could teach Shangguan Mufeng a good lesson, but looking at Shangguan Mufeng's current state, they didn't know where to start.

They then turned their attention to Shangguan Nantian.

But at this moment, he saw that Shangguan Nantian actually agreed with Shangguan Mufeng's actions.

At that moment, they had only one thought: these two people in charge should not be kept alive. They decided to eliminate them and fabricate some charges against them.

What they hate most is anyone jeopardizing their own interests, and now Shangguan Mufeng and his group have indeed jeopardized them.

"The principle of putting the people first is something you've all heard of. Now that we're in the depths of winter, how many ordinary people will die if heavy snow comes? Have you all thought about this?"

As they listened, they must have been looking at each other; how could they not know about this matter?

They looked around for a while and finally decided to donate some cloth here.

Qin Yanling was certainly very pleased with everyone's decisions, and at that moment, he planned to reward Shangguan Mufeng.

Shangguan Mufeng shook his head directly, indicating that he did not need any reward, but only hoped that the money would be given to the common people of Liming, because they were living a very difficult life.

"I never expected that you, official Shangguan, would have such magnanimity at this time. I truly admire you. Since that's the case, I am willing to allocate one thousand taels of gold directly to help the people. If the people still don't have enough, I am willing to allocate more. This matter will be entirely entrusted to you, official Shangguan."

In the end, Shangguan Mufeng accepted all the tasks. He knew that some people would be envious and others would want to deal with him. He decided to go to the Princess's residence later and ask for a few people.

At this moment, Li Bai and Feng knew that the officials around them were definitely not convinced, because they all disapproved of Shangguan Mufeng's actions. More importantly, Shangguan Mufeng had directly caused them to lose a lot of things.

After the court session, Qin Yanling kept Shangguan Mufeng behind by himself.

"I actually want to ask you something. Do you know how many officials in the court you have offended with your actions just now? Don't you feel any fear?"

Shangguan Mufeng was quite surprised that the emperor had already figured it out. He had thought the emperor wouldn't be able to see it, but now he had.

"How could I not feel some fear? But I don't want to see these people starving and cold. After all, they are innocent, aren't they? I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?"

For some reason, Qin Yanling had a different opinion of Shangguan Mufeng at this time. He originally thought that since Shangguan Mufeng came from the Princess's mansion, his actions would naturally be questionable. However, he now found that Shangguan Mufeng's character and information were relatively reliable.

Perhaps he could make good use of Shangguan Mufeng at this time. As for Prime Minister Xu, he could never guess what Prime Minister Xu was really thinking.

"Go ahead and do this boldly. I will take responsibility for whatever happens."
