Jiang Mengli transmigrated as the daughter of a criminal official. Still wearing her wedding dress, she was thrown out of the residence by a scumbag who forcibly broke off their engagement. As an e...
As the people rejoiced, County Magistrate Lin chuckled and said loudly, "I hope the princess can really provide some food. Don't let anyone say something unexpected happened and the food is gone."
"Everyone knows that food is in short supply right now. There's nowhere to buy food around here. They didn't bring any food when they came yesterday."
His words were like a basin of cold water poured on the people, completely extinguishing the little flame that had just ignited in their hearts.
The refugee camp suddenly became noisy.
"What do you mean, sir? Are you saying that the princess and the others are lying?"
"How could you deceive us with something like this?"
"I thought there would really be food, but it was all a lie..."
"God, please open your eyes and take a look. Do poor people like us deserve to suffer like this?"
Soon, a hot-tempered person stood up and wanted to smash the pot, cursing and making the situation very chaotic.
When Linzhi County saw this scene, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. This was exactly the effect he wanted.
Yun Jian was furious. He quickly drew his sword and stood in front of the porridge stall. He said in a sullen and cold voice, "If anyone dares to sabotage this, don't blame me for being blind!"
After all, people are still afraid of death.
Under his intimidation, the angry people took a few steps back and dared not move forward.
But they still refused to accept it. "If you don't want to help us, why are you pretending?"
"Giving us hope and then dashing it, isn't this teasing us ordinary people?"
"I originally thought that after Prince Yu's arrival, things would get better, but unexpectedly, it's still the same."
County Magistrate Lin was stroking his beard and watching the show, hoping that these people would make more and more trouble.
It would be more fun if we could fight.
Yun Jian patiently soothed them in a loud voice, "Don't listen to Magistrate Lin's nonsense. What good will it do to lie to you?"
"You just need to be patient and wait. You'll know whether it's true or not soon. Making a fuss now is a waste of energy."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings quickly became quiet.
Everyone is hungry now and has limited energy, so it’s better to wait and see.
Seeing that things had quieted down so quickly, County Magistrate Lin immediately spoke again, "You really are..."
"Shut up!" Yun Jian interrupted quickly and coldly, walking up to him and gritting his teeth in warning, "If you dare to talk nonsense and stir up public anger again, I will kill you immediately."
County Magistrate Lin shuddered with fear and stammered, "You, you, you dare!"
Yun Jian immediately drew his sword, his eyes filled with murderous intent, "Do you think I dare? This is my master's order. Anyone who dares to disrupt this will be killed without mercy!"
At this moment, County Magistrate Lin finally didn't dare to continue talking nonsense and tactfully stepped back.
Soon, many officials from the yamen appeared, including the prefect.
He finally found his own people and immediately became energetic again. "Sir, you are here. The food has not arrived yet, and I don't know if it will arrive."
The prefect glanced at Yun Jian with a smile, and said with a smile, "I am also curious about where their food comes from, so I came to take a look."
"Thinking about the current situation, I feel uneasy. I'm afraid that the prince and princess are just empty talk, making the people happy for nothing."
Yun Jian was too lazy to pay attention to them. He rolled his eyes at them and then supervised the setting up of the porridge stall, ignoring them.
After a while, everyone was getting a little impatient.
County Magistrate Lin said sarcastically, "It hasn't been delivered yet. Even if he is a prince, he can't play tricks on people like this."
I was so happy. It had taken so long for the food not to be delivered, so there must be no food.
I don't know what's the point of them telling such lies. They will only make a fool of themselves.
"Look, Prince Yu is coming!" An official pointed to the front and said excitedly.
Everyone present looked over and saw Wen Mohan sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed over by Jiang Mengli.
Everyone still saluted respectfully in unison, and Wen Mohan raised his hand to indicate that they didn't need to bow.
County Magistrate Lin immediately laughed and said loudly, "Your Highness Prince Yu, didn't you say there was food? Why are only the two of you here? Are you trying to say there is no food?"
As soon as the words fell, a voice came from behind them, "Make way, the food is coming, please make way..."
When the people heard the word "food", their eyes lit up and they all looked over intently.
I saw people coming one after another carrying sacks, about ten sacks in total, and some were carrying bacon.
The whole place was boiling with the laughter of the people.
"There's food, and meat..."
"Thank you, Your Highness, and thank you, Princess. You are like living Bodhisattvas."
"Hahaha... I can finally eat hot porridge..."
County Magistrate Lin, the prefect, and others were all staring in amazement, unable to believe that there was really food!
Jiang Mengli immediately asked the officers and soldiers to start a fire and cook porridge, and told them to chop the meat into a paste and mix it into the porridge.
She used a gourd ladle to scoop water and poured it into the pot. In fact, she was adding spiritual spring water, which would be good for the people's health if they drank it.
The officers and soldiers were still very active in their work, washing rice, making fire, chopping meat...
There are four porridge stalls in total, and four big pots are working at the same time.
The prefect came back to his senses after a while, looked at Wen Mohan with a frown and asked, "Your Highness Prince Yu, where did you buy all this food?"
Before he could reply, County Magistrate Lin couldn't wait to speak up, "I'm also curious where all this food comes from. There's nowhere to buy it around here."
"But no matter where you get your food, it's just a drop in the bucket. It will only last for two days at most."
Wen Mohan heard this, tapped the armrest with a smile and said in a deep voice: "This is only a small part, everyone, don't worry."
