The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"Whether Lord Chu is a saint reincarnated, I do not know."

"However, Lord Chu's actions have made it possible for the people of the capital to afford medical treatment."

"This is truly a great act of merit!"

The official exclaimed in amazement, "Moreover, because of this matter, the people of the capital are extremely grateful to His Majesty."

Throughout the capital, one could hear the people expressing their gratitude to His Majesty.

They believe His Majesty is a holy emperor reincarnated!

"Alright, I am aware of this matter."

"You should step back first."

Chen Yu took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and spoke to the official.

"Yes, I am resigning."

The official acknowledged the order and withdrew.

At this moment, from the few words Chen Yu exchanged with this official, the officials in Wenyuan Pavilion had already roughly guessed what was going on.

It should be Lord Chu Xiu, the garrison commander of the Northern Garrison, who, after distributing rice, flour, cooking oil and other supplies to the poor people of the capital for free, has now gathered all the medical clinics, large and small, in the capital to provide free medical consultations for the people of the capital.

Chen Yu straightened his official robes and walked into the Wenyuan Pavilion with mixed feelings.

As an official of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he approved of Chu Xiu's approach.

However, as a member of a powerful and influential family.

He could not agree with Chu Xiu's approach!

This is overthrowing the rule of powerful and aristocratic families!

Not long after.

Chen Yu entered a spacious and bright room, bowed to Grand Secretary Yang Yan and others, and said, "Reporting to the Grand Secretaries, Chen Yu has important matters to report."

"But it's related to Chu Xiu?"

Yang Yan raised his head, looked at Chen Yu, and said calmly.

Dugu Tai and the others all raised their heads and looked at Chen Yu.

After all, during this period, almost all the things Chen Yu reported were about Chu Xiu.

"Reporting to the Grand Secretary, it is related to Chu Xiu. Today, Chu Xiu summoned all the physicians from medical clinics of all sizes throughout the capital."

"A three-day free clinic event for all doctors in the capital."

"During the free clinic event, anyone who wants to see a doctor can go to a nearby clinic for treatment."

"All expenses in the clinic are covered by the special fund for public welfare established by Chu Xiu."

"Furthermore, Chu Xiu has already arranged for various medical clinics to hold free clinics at this time every month, which will last for three days!"

"This special fund for public welfare is half of the proceeds from the confiscation of property by the Northern Garrison Command, which was originally required to be handed over to His Majesty's treasury after Chu Xiu reported to His Majesty and obtained His Majesty's consent."

"Now, throughout the capital, countless people are lining up in long queues at various medical clinics, waiting to see a doctor."

Chen Yu said with a solemn expression, "Countless people in the capital are grateful to His Majesty."

"Free medical consultation event?"

"Special funds for public welfare undertakings?"

Yang Yan was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of shock.

As the Grand Secretary of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the head of the Yang family of Hongnong, he was completely bewildered by Chu Xiu's actions.

He didn't even quite understand Chu Xiu's purpose in doing this.

Just to flatter someone?

However, it must be said that if Empress Murong Si heard about Chu Xiu's actions, she would definitely be very pleased.

This person is no ordinary individual!

Dugu Tai and the others' expressions became extremely solemn.

They all thought of the same question.

Chu Xiu is now doing this in the capital.

Will Chu Xiu do something like this throughout the entire Great Zhou Dynasty in the future?

This approach is a huge shock to powerful and influential families!

This is impacting the rule of powerful and influential families!

If all the people in the world are grateful to Empress Murong Si of the Great Zhou Dynasty, would ordinary people still believe what these aristocratic families say?

If ordinary people don't believe them, then these powerful and influential families are of no use whatsoever!

Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it!

"If this man doesn't die, he will likely become a major threat to our powerful clans!"

Minister of Works Zheng Yun remained silent for a long time before speaking with great seriousness.

"I agree."

Minister of Justice Dugu Tai said with an expression of agreement.

Although Zhao Duo, the Minister of Personnel, and others did not speak, they were extremely supportive.

Previously, they were all thinking about whether to extend an olive branch to Chu Xiu and bring such a peerless talent into their fold.

They haven't taken any action yet, but because of the Wang family of Taiyuan, they're planning to observe the situation further.

Let's see how far Chu Xiu can go.

If Chu Xiu can prove his worth, they won't even give him face, not even for the sake of the Taiyuan Wang family.

But at this moment!

Chu Xiu's actions completely dispelled their thoughts!

Whether Chu Xiu wanted to be a sage or to please Empress Murong Si, it didn't matter.

All of this demonstrates that Chu Xiu, who is capable of doing these things, is not someone they can easily recruit.

This child cannot be kept!

"Who do you think is the most afraid person?"

Yang Yan said meaningfully.

The Wang family of Taiyuan!

To be precise, he was the person in charge of the Taiyuan Wang family in the capital, Wang Hao, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites!

Dugu Tai and the others smiled. The more shocking Chu Xiu's behavior was, the more afraid Wang Hao became!

He would be even more afraid of the Embroidered Uniform Guard slipping out of his control completely.

Even with Wang Hao's status, he would certainly be blamed by Wang Yang, the head of the Taiyuan Wang clan.

"We don't need to do anything, we just need to wait and see."

Yang Yan stroked his gray beard and said with a smile.

"The Grand Secretary is wise!"

Dugu Tai and the others said with expressions of admiration.

The Imperial Palace, Taiji Palace.

A palace maid hurried in, handed a note to Pei Guanyin, and then withdrew.

Pei Guanyin opened the note and began to read it.

After reading it, her eyes glazed over, and she remained silent for a long time.

Standing to the side, Jiang Wan'er couldn't help but curiously lean over to see what was written on the note.

only……

After she finished reading it, she, like Pei Guanyin, became dazed.

What are you two doing?

Empress Murong Si happened to look up and saw Pei Guanyin and Jiang Wan'er, who both had blank expressions.

"Your Majesty, this maidservant congratulates you..."

Pei Guanyin and Jiang Wan'er came to their senses, exchanged a glance, knelt down before Murong Si, and said in unison.

"Could it be that Minister Chu has done something again?"

Murong Si's expression turned strange, and she said in surprise and doubt.

"Your Majesty, Lord Chu has summoned all physicians from clinics of all sizes throughout the capital to conduct free medical consultations in the city."

"As long as you are sick, you can go to the nearby clinic for treatment."

"All expenses will be covered by the special fund for public welfare undertakings of the Northern Garrison."

"The people don't need to contribute a single penny!"

Pei Guanyin said with a look of admiration.

"what?"

"Free medical consultation event?"

"To make medical care free for all residents of the capital?"

Upon hearing this, Murong Si's face showed disbelief, and she couldn't help but exclaim.

At this moment, even Murong Si, who was always calm and composed and never showed her emotions, could not control herself!
