Chapter 973 It's a horrible sight everywhere
"What did you say? The emperor of the Bear Country is finally going to collapse?"
Sometimes Yuan Baobao felt that the old man was really lucky. He
was already in bad condition two years ago, but he managed to survive for two years.
The rich brother passed away two years ago, and no one knew how he is doing now.
But Yang Yuhuan...
Yuan Baobao shook her head, she didn't want to talk about the past.
The people of the Yang family had moved out of the capital a long time ago.
They haven't been in contact with each other in the past two years.
But I heard that Yang Yuhuan is still doing business outside, and her methods are more sophisticated than before.
"Yes, this news should be true. I heard that those princes are fighting fiercely, but the one who is most likely to inherit the throne should be the rich brother Chu Jianghuai!"
The prince and Chu Jianghuai are also somewhat acquainted.
The two of them had been together before, and he hoped that Chu Jianghuai could succeed him.
After all, it was easier to get things done with someone he knew, and he had no ambition to unify the world.
If it was a rich man who succeeded, there would be no war between the two sides in the next few decades.
But if it was someone else, it might not be the case.
"But..."
The prince hesitated for a moment, Yuan Baobao said hurriedly, "Tell me any news as soon as possible. Is it bad news?"
"That's not the case. I just heard that there are other women around Chu Jianghuai!"
Yuan Baobao sighed, "This has nothing to do with me. There are not many people in the world who are as affectionate as my father!"
"Baby, I also like to be with one person for the rest of my life!"
Yuan Baobao rolled his eyes at him, "Let's deal with the bad peach blossoms around you first!"
The prince looked a little innocent, "I haven't even seen their faces!"
"Do you want this princess to hold a flower-viewing banquet for you so that you can see them one by one?"
The prince shook his head quickly, "By the way, the food and medicinal materials are almost ready. I estimate that I will go to provide disaster relief the day after tomorrow at the latest!"
"Baby, can you go with me?"
Yuan Baobao snorted, "It's you who have the disaster here, not Daqian Kingdom, why should this princess go with you?"
The prince said sincerely, "But I'm worried that other termites will be discovered!"
Yuan Baobao, "Before in Daqian Kingdom, I had no salary, and I had to deal with the problems of those officials. Why is it still the same here?"
"Here you go!"
The prince took out a key directly, Yuan Baobao said in surprise, "What is this?"
"The warehouse of the prince's mansion, you will be in charge of everything in it from now on!"
Yuan Baobao only felt a little hot in her ears, what does this guy mean.
[Is the prince teasing me? ]
[I'm not the mistress of the prince's mansion, what does it mean to let me help him manage the key to the warehouse? γ
γHe doesn't want to enslave me for free, does he? γ
The prince was just confused.
Did he not express it clearly enough? The little princess is usually very smart, why does she become confused when it comes to personal problems.
"Baby, the entire prince's mansion will be yours in the future!"
The prince took a step forward and almost stuck to Yuan Baobao.
Yuan Baobao quickly stepped back, "You... just talk, why are you so close to me." After
Yuan Baobao finished speaking, he grabbed the key and ran away.
Xiu'er was very upset, but she still turned around and glared at the prince, "My princess is still a child!"
"Besides, our emperor will never agree to a marriage for you!"
Yuan Baobao didn't want to accept the key, but the prince didn't want it.
In the end, she still followed him to the disaster area.
This was not the first time that Yuan Baobao had participated in disaster relief, but when he really went there again, he was still deeply shocked.
In ancient times, once a disaster occurred, it was a fatal blow to the people.
Starved corpses can be seen on the roadside from time to time.
There were also groups of people staggering.
"These corpses are all starved to death. The flesh on their bodies has also been eaten!"
Lord Wang, who was accompanying him, also looked reluctant.
The prince's eyes condensed slightly, and asked everyone to hurry up.
Finally, they arrived at the first town. The town was full of hungry and emaciated people.
Their eyes were dull and their cheeks were sunken.
Among them, there were also a small number of women and children.
"Look at that..." Xiu'er pointed at the woman at the corner not far away.
The woman was so thin that she was out of shape. Her clothes were tattered and her skin was exposed in many places.
However, her skin was black.
What was shocking was that she was holding a skinny child in her arms.
The child looked like he couldn't walk yet and his eyes were closed.
The woman was putting her hand into the child's mouth, and the child's little mouth was sucking hard.
Xiu'er sighed, "I heard in the past that people have no milk when they are too hungry. People were afraid that their children would starve to death, so they would bite their fingers and let the children suck their blood!"
"I didn't expect to see it here!"
The key is that this woman is not an isolated case. There are similar women not far away.
Yuan Baobao was very emotional. They knew that they might not be able to save their own lives, but they still didn't give up their children.
There weren't so many contraceptive measures in ancient times, and they probably didn't expect to have a baby at this time, right?
"We'll put a big pot in the town and find a few more people so that they can each have a bowl of hot porridge!"
Yuan Baobao thought about it and jumped off the carriage.
She and Xiu'er were dressed modestly enough, but they still attracted people's attention.
"Your Highness, please go to the government office first, I'll comfort them first!"
The prince nodded and left four guards to Yuan Baobao.
As soon as Yuan Baobao and her people got off the carriage, many people looked at her with burning eyes.
After making sure that the carriage had left, some brave people came over and said, "Miss, please be kind and give me something to eat!"
"I haven't eaten for half a month!"
The speaker was an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, with a hunched back.
Because of his approach, many people came over, "This kind-hearted girl, please give us something to eat!"
"Please give my son a bite of food, he is really starving to death!"
Everyone rushed to say it, Yuan Baobao looked at the faces that were already deformed by hunger, and his mood was extremely complicated.
"Don't worry, the court has already come down!"
"Haha!" As soon as Yuan Baobao finished speaking, someone snorted with disdain.
"The court! The court has come down many times, but they don't do anything at all!"
A man in his thirties or forties said angrily.
Another old man also sighed, "We also know that they transported food, but it all went to the government office!"
"And those black-hearted merchants, the price of food is very high, people like us can't afford it at all!"
"If you ask me, it's the people in the court who don't care about our lives!"
"Ahhh, hurry up and save my son, my son is dead..."
A woman in the crowd shouted hoarsely.
