"What do you think, teacher? What if we donate it to the government to help the people?"

Overjoyed, Lin Moyan grabbed Han Zixuan's arm, exclaiming, "Zixuan is so kind!"

She was truly gratified; Han Zixuan was not only intelligent but also had a compassionate heart. She had truly found a treasure!

"The heavy snow disaster has likely trapped many people."

With this, things will definitely be much faster, and the people will have more hope. Zixuan, hurry to the county government office!

He then urged Han Zixuan to hurry to the yamen, but Han Zixuan stopped him.

"Master, I would like to present this to the government in the name of our Mingjing Hall!"

In this way, the prestige and reputation of our Mingjing Hall will surely soar!

It was inappropriate for her to shoulder the burden of winning popular support alone; she didn't want to be too conspicuous when she still lacked real power.

Lin Moyan was extremely shocked. "Zixuan, if this were reported, it would be a great achievement."

His Majesty would surely reward you, so why are you doing this?

Before Lin Moyan could finish speaking, Han Zixuan spoke up.

"Why not take it all for yourself? Is that it, Master?"

Lin Moyan was very curious. If she could leave an impression on the emperor, it would definitely benefit her in the imperial examination!

Han Zixuan was turning down such a chance to become famous, which really puzzled her.

Han Zixuan chuckled, "Now I'm just a nobody."

A great reputation isn't always a good thing!

She knew all too well that the imperial court was a den of dragons and tigers, and that there might be some people who didn't like her coming to cause trouble for her.

Let's just lay low for now. You can't get fat in one bite; that will only choke you!

She's not the female lead, Liu Jingyao; she doesn't have the protagonist's halo.

Lin Moyan nodded secretly after listening to Han Zixuan's analysis.

Such shrewdness at such a young age—a tree that stands out in the forest will surely be felled by the wind!

The fact that she could think of this shows that this woman has potential.

"In that case, I thank you!"

We should indeed thank her; with such a woman in Mingjing Hall, it will surely shine even brighter!

"It's the student's responsibility; the teacher is being too modest!"

The two understood each other without saying a word!

"In that case, I will go with you to the county government office!"

Han Zixuan nodded and took out the blueprints she had made!

"These are the blueprints; it would be best to keep a copy in the school!"

Seeing the crowd gathered in front of her, Han Zixuan shouted loudly.

"Please come here, Master Zhang!"

Zhang Yongqing was studying the sled when he heard Han Zixuan's shout and reluctantly came over.

"What does Han Zixuan want with me?"

She also wanted to study those sleds to see how they could keep people from sinking into the snow.

Han Zixuan handed several blueprints to Zhang Yongqing.

"Master Zhang, I have some blueprints for making sleds here. I wonder if you would be interested?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yongqing's eyes lit up instantly, and he stared intently at the paper in Han Zixuan's hand.

"Oh, I'm interested, I'm interested!"

He reached out and took the blueprints from Han Zixuan's hand, looking completely absorbed.

"It's very simple. We can make it too. The materials are easy to find. Just wait, I can make it right away."

Then he called over a few students, "Li Bing, Wang Xue, you guys come over and help me."

"I'll make a few later, one for each person, so they can ski home and visit."

Upon hearing this, the crowd became indignant and raised their hands, shouting, "Master, let me help!"

"If the Master chooses me, I can certainly contribute!"

Soon, students helped find the necessary materials.

Han Zixuan and Lin Moyan headed to the yamen and found a mule to tie to a sled.

Lin Moyan sat on the sled with great curiosity, while Han Zixuan stood behind it.

With a soft snort, the mule trotted off into the snow, the sled cutting across the surface and disappearing into the distance.

Everyone found it fascinating, and fortunately, because someone had cleared the streets earlier, the snow wasn't too deep!

Nowadays, there are hardly any pedestrians on the road.

People were amazed to see such a strange thing speeding by!

Inside the county government office, County Magistrate Li Haiyan was pacing anxiously back and forth!

This snow disaster was truly unexpected for her, but the snow on the road was too thick.

These yamen runners had to clear the snow before they could go out.

It took a long time to clean the gate of the county government office.

If he does nothing during the disaster, he will surely be held accountable by the Queen, and then he will lose his official position.

Li Haiyan hurried in and out of the county government's warehouse to check the grain stored there.

At the same time, he urgently summoned his subordinates, clerks, and secretaries, constantly urging them to speed up their work.

Looking at the yamen runners cleaning up in the distance with a worried expression, he realized that even sending someone out to deliver a message was impossible in this situation!

Just then, a yamen runner came running over, shouting, "Sir, Lin, the scholar from Mingjing Hall, has arrived!"

Li Haiyan frowned. Why was she here? Scholar Lin rarely came out and was usually detached from worldly affairs.

Her mentor was a prominent figure in Kyoto.

If she wanted to, she could be the magistrate of Mingxi County! So Li Haiyan was quite considerate of her.

"Please come in quickly!"

The three met, and Lin Moyan bowed slightly in greeting, "Lord Li, how have you been?"

"Scholar Lin, I am so sorry for not welcoming you properly!" Han Zixuan stood silently to the side.

After exchanging pleasantries, they got down to business.

"With the roads blocked by heavy snow, I wonder what brings you here, Scholar Lin?"

Lin Moyan didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Lord Xiangbi is currently worried about this snow disaster!"

Li Haiyan glanced at Lin Moyan, then lowered her head. "To be honest, Scholar Lin, I am indeed anxious."

The snow is so heavy that I'm afraid many people have suffered. I'm also trapped by the snow and can't get out at all.

They had absolutely no way of knowing the extent of the disaster affecting the people, and were extremely anxious.

She was so anxious and frustrated, but she couldn't think of a solution!

Lin Moyan smiled knowingly, "Lord Zhang, I have come here today to relieve your worries!"

Li Haiyan's eyes suddenly widened. "How come Scholar Lin has a solution?"

Lin Moyan took out the blueprints that Han Zixuan had given her.

"My lord, my Mingjing Hall has created a thing called a sled and a snowboard, which allows people to move in the snow."

It can also be used to transport goods, and I would like to offer it to you to help you in your urgent need.

This will also allow disaster-stricken people to receive assistance.

Zhang Haiyan took the paper and looked at it, but she didn't understand it.

"Is this thing really useful?"

This thing looks weird, how do I use it?

"If you have any doubts, we can demonstrate it for you."

He then pointed to the samples they had brought.

Zhang Haiyan strode forward with great interest to examine it, while Han Zixuan came outside and demonstrated the usage method again.

Li Haiyan clapped and cheered excitedly!

"Great! This is wonderful! Now we won't have to worry about even the thickest snow!"

This way, people can go around checking on the extent of the disaster among the people!

"Thank you for your kindness, Scholar Lin! I will remember it! I will report it to His Majesty truthfully when the time comes!"

Lin Moyan shook his head, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning!"

"We are all subjects of Fenglin, and it is our duty to share Your Majesty's burdens."

"Lord Zhang, please have someone make it as soon as possible! We need to assess the damage in the surrounding villages as soon as possible."

"I will now depart to see if the people around here need any help!"
