"I hope your mother recovers soon."
While Yuchi Xi was speaking, he opened another tube of ointment. As soon as the ointment was applied, the little girl felt a coolness on the wound. Miraculously, the pain disappeared and the swelling of her swollen hand subsided instantly.
Yuchi Xi stuffed the ointment into her hand and said, "Keep it. You can use it on injuries caused by frostbite or from accidental falls."
"It's a cold night, go back and rest early!"
The little girl immediately knelt down, and Yuchi Xi quickly supported her, "Don't do this."
The little girl's eyes were red. "Thank you so much, sir! Thank you so much! I will never forget your kindness in my life!!"
The little girl's eyes were filled with tears, but she tried hard to keep them open, wanting to remember the appearance of her benefactor firmly in her heart.
Yuchi Xi gently wiped away her tears and said, "Go home. Today is New Year's Day, a day for family reunion."
"Okay!" The little girl stood up and bowed deeply to Yuchi Xi, then ran away with her clothes in her arms. Yuchi Xi followed her and watched her from mid-air, not too far away, to ensure her safety.
When she got home, Yuchi Xi had dealt with all the criminals who were targeting her.
Only after making sure she was not in danger did he leave.
Jing Huaian accompanied her. Yuchi Xi looked at the bustling crowd and said, "Yuan Kingdom, there are still people suffering so much."
Jing Huaian comforted her, "Wherever there are people, some will live well, and some will live poorly. This is not your fault, so don't take it to heart."
Yuchi Xi lowered her eyes, "Before I ascended, I was the empress of the Yuan Kingdom. How could it not be my fault?"
"Even if it's not my fault, the people are suffering, and I am responsible for that."
Yuchi Xi disappeared in a flash, Jing Huaian chuckled and followed her. Well, this is the little princess.
Yuchi Xi came to the county magistrate's house and went straight to the county magistrate's room. The county magistrate was about to kiss his wife when he suddenly saw two more people in the room and was almost scared to death.
"Who!?! Someone, there's an assassin!"
The magistrate immediately pushed his wife aside and shouted. Yuchi Xi raised an eyebrow, "What are you yelling about? If it really was an assassin, would you still have a chance to shout out?"
All the lanterns and candles in the room lit up, instantly illuminating the entire room. The county magistrate saw Yuchi Xi's appearance and fell to his knees in fear, "Your Majesty the Empress!"
"Oh? You know me?" Yuchi Xi was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the county magistrate of this place would know her.
"Yes!" the county magistrate was very excited. "We have a statue of you in every county! I even had someone paint your portrait and hang it in my home!!"
"You are our light!!"
The county magistrate's wife also quickly knelt down and said, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Empress."
"There's no such thing as Her Majesty the Empress anymore." After Yuchi Xi ascended, she was no longer one. "But since you still recognize me, I have something to tell you."
The county magistrate said, "Please speak."
"I will listen attentively!"
Yuchi Xi, "What do you think of this county?"
"How do you plan to govern this county? How do you plan to help those poor people in the county become prosperous?"
County Magistrate: Oh? Is this also my job?
Shouldn't we not only ensure that the people have enough food and clothing, but also ensure that they become rich?
The county magistrate said, "I have never thought about this. I believe that as long as the people have enough food and clothing, that is enough."
Yuchi Xi, "But now, not everyone in the county can have enough food and clothing."
"Yes!" the county magistrate admitted. "I'm still working hard."
"I will definitely lead the people to a life of having enough food and warm clothing as soon as possible."
"This is too slow." Yuchi Xi asked him, "Do you know that some people won't survive until then?"
"Then, in your opinion..." The county magistrate really couldn't think of a good solution, "What should I do?"
"First, investigate every household. If any family is struggling to survive, we will provide them with a monthly subsidy, which will be paid to the court."
"If there are seriously ill people in the family, the court will pay for doctors to provide free medical treatment every month!"
Yuchi Xi taught him, "Only by doing this can the people survive until your 'enough food and clothing' policy is officially implemented in every household!!"
County Magistrate: !!!
"Can we ask the imperial court to pay such money?"
Even the county magistrate couldn't even imagine it. Could it still be called the imperial court? Could it still be called the national treasury? Wouldn't it be like another home for the people?
Yuchi Xi glanced at him and knew what he was thinking. "What is the national treasury? It's an emergency reserve for every citizen of this country!"
"If we don't give them the money, who will spend it on? Can the emperor use so much money now?"
The county magistrate rubbed his hands together and said, "Since you said so, I believe you."
"Okay, don't worry, I will do as you say."
"Well, I'll keep an eye on you." Yuchi Xi told him, "Just apply. If you're not accepted the first time, try again the second time. With me here, there's nothing I can't get."
With her words, the county magistrate was completely relieved.
"yes!"
The county magistrate felt that he was now full of energy! The kind of energy that could write ten memorials in a row!
After Yuchi Xi left, the county magistrate immediately began writing a memorial. The county magistrate's wife asked, "Is she really the Empress? Didn't the rumor say that the Empress had ascended to heaven a long time ago?"
"She was able to appear in our room without alerting any of the guards. She must be either a deity or a hidden master. And that face of hers definitely belongs to Her Majesty the Empress!"
The county magistrate believed it. "Even if it's fake, it doesn't matter. Just give it a try and you'll know. If this application is successful, then she must be the Empress."
