As soon as she arrived at the city gate, she saw the man who had collected her banknotes was collecting money from the common people. When a commoner was unwilling to give, he pushed the commoner and cursed at him.

Lin Yuxin snorted in her heart!

[God has his own way. No one can escape from the mercy of heaven. If you eat something from me, it’s time for you to spit it out! ]

"Oh, I haven't seen the official's prestige growing since he came on stage!"

Lin Yuxin led the group over, stopped him from continuing to curse, and spoke sarcastically.

"You? Didn't you go in? Why are you coming out again? Do you want to meddle in other people's business? Hurry up, but if you come out now and want to go in again, you have to pay 100 taels of silver each!"

When the official saw Lin Yuxin coming out again, he first frowned, and then spoke with a dead pig-like look that was not afraid of boiling water.

Because the city gate was quite far from the government office, Lin Yuxin went straight to the government office as soon as she entered, so no one came out to report the news. Now, Zhong Zuan no longer had the final say in the government office.

"Of course, this princess came out to get rid of the rat, but if you want to ask me for money this time, you won't get it!"

Lin Yuxin looked at the official and shook her head, as if she was looking at a monkey.

"Rat? Where did the rat come from!"

The official didn't know that the mouse Lin Yuxin was talking about was him. He didn't notice that Lin Yuxin called herself a princess in her words. He looked at Lin Yuxin in confusion and asked.

"Rats? Of course it's you bugs! Catch them for me!"

Lin Yuxin's casual expression suddenly became serious, and she spoke to the person behind her.

With a single sword and a group of people behind him, he immediately went forward and captured the official at the city gate.

"You...what do you want to do? You dare to arrest the official, don't you want to live? Once we find out, you will be dead."

The leading official was caught and before he could come to his senses, he immediately struggled and tried to resist, and yelled at Lin Yuxin and others.

But no matter how hard he struggled, it was useless. They were good at arresting people with a single sword. If they couldn't handle this well, they would have no use in front of the emperor.

"Your people? Oh! Are you talking about Zhong Zuan? I guess you won't be able to wait for him. He is now locked up in the cell and hungry."

Lin Yuxin calmly watched his face turn pale little by little, and said with a smile.

"How is that possible? Who are you?"

The guard looked at Lin Yuxin in disbelief and asked.

"Who am I? Go to the prison and ask your people, and you'll know. Take me away!"

Lin Yuxin didn't waste any more time talking to them and told the people below to take it back.

Several gatekeepers were taken away directly.

Lin Yuxin asked Shandao to put the prepared things in place, and then put the two buckets on the wooden board.

The people around looked at each other in confusion when they saw this scene, wondering what this girl was trying to do.

"Hello, everyone. I am Princess Pingning, who was personally appointed by the Emperor. I am here to help you. I know many of you haven't eaten for many days. I will prepare some porridge and steamed buns. Each of you can have a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun."

"After you finish this meal and have the energy, those who are ready to stay can come to us to get supplies and build a simple house to stay here temporarily. If you want to go home, come and get two silver coins and ten kilograms of rice each, and then go home first!"

Lin Yuxin looked at the people around her and spoke in a soft voice while trying to smile.

Lin Yuxin's words were like a stone dropped into deep water, stirring up thousands of waves and the surrounding discussions surged.

"Really? Can I get some porridge? Is it free?"

"Mom, listen, that beautiful sister said we can go get food, mom, we don't have to go hungry!"

"Princess, can we really get free porridge?"

There was constant discussion around, and the bravest one shouted at Lin Yuxin.

"It's true. If you don't believe me, you can come and get some porridge."

Lin Yuxin walked over and pointed to the table and two buckets beside her.

The subordinate was very considerate and directly opened the lid of the bucket. The aroma of the porridge inside immediately wafted out and spread far away.

When the people around smelled the smell, they all started to swallow the water. Those who reacted quickly took their bowls and lined up.

"Master, I go first, I go first!"

"Me! Me first!"

Dandao, who was standing by, saw the people in front of the table fighting fiercely, so he drew the sword from his waist and swung it at them.

“Bang!”

The sound of the sword hitting the wooden table frightened the common people so much that they covered their mouths and looked at the single sword in fear.

"Shut up! Get in line!"

There is no nonsense in the single sword. These four words are simple and clear, yet carry a sense of oppression.

Those few people did not dare to act rashly again and lined up obediently, and the people behind them also lined up obediently.

Each person had a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun. There were hundreds of people, but it still took a long time to distribute the porridge. Two buckets of porridge were not enough, so they had to go back and fetch more twice.

When they were almost done, Lin Yuxin said to Dandao:

"I'll leave this place to you. It's up to them to decide where to go or stay. Give it to them according to the conditions I just mentioned. The silver can be taken from the government office. I'll be going back first."

"Yes, leave this to me, Princess, rest assured."

He bowed and saluted, respectfully seeing Lin Yuxin off, and sent two people to escort the princess back.

Lin Yuxin didn't say anything else and went straight into the city.

This time I did not take a carriage but walked back. Along the way I could hear people hurrying around, muttering:

"Hurry, hurry up, the government office is distributing grain today. Bring your household registration with you. We will distribute it according to your household registration. If you are late, there will be no grain left."

"Yes, yes, hurry up!"

There were many such voices along the way. Lin Yuxin saw that they had hope for life again, and her tense heart relaxed a little.

It seems that these people have received the news. At present, the situation inside and outside the city is temporarily under control.

But there are more problems ahead.

Lin Yuxin took a deep breath, prepared to face difficulties, and then walked towards the government office.

When Lin Yuxin arrived, there was already a long queue at the government office, and those who received food left with smiles on their faces.

Seeing that Zhao Er and the others were busy in an orderly manner, Lin Yuxin went into the government office and sat in Zhong Zuan's study for a while.

Lin Yuxin picked up the brush on the table and wrote a letter on the paper.

She knew that although the granary was full of reserve grain, it could not meet the needs of so many people, and some grain had to be transported in from outside.

Before she can find food to replace the food, she must make plans in advance, and be prepared when the food is gone.

So she wrote two letters, one to her second brother and one to Uncle Jin. These two people she knew had the financial resources to help her for the time being.

Giving food to the emperor? She was afraid that the food would be deducted before it arrived, but she still wrote a letter to complain about her poverty and misery.

It would be better if the emperor could give me some, yes, that's right.

After Lin Yuxin figured it out, she buried her head in writing another letter and put it in a specific envelope.

"Someone come!"

"Lord!"

Snow shadow flashed in.

Lin Yuxin was a little surprised when she saw him, so she asked:

"Didn't I ask you to protect Xiaohao? Why are you here? Is Xiaohao okay?"
