The next day, the Li family received news that His Highness the Crown Prince was coming to visit them.
In the eyes of the Li family, this was an unparalleled honor.
You see, if His Highness the Crown Prince were to visit their home, they would have something to brag about. They could spread the word that they were related to His Highness the Crown Prince, which would not only enhance their reputation and status in the area, but also bring them many benefits.
Therefore, after receiving the news, the Li family immediately began preparations.
Not only did they hold a grand banquet, but they also bought fine clothes for the beggars and vagrants who were impersonating members of the Li family, as well as some ordinary people.
After all, these people are impersonating members of the Li family. If His Highness the Crown Prince comes and sees them dressed in rags, it will naturally be inappropriate.
Since they were going to go all out, they had to dress these people up from head to toe.
Although it would cost a lot of money, the Li family still considered it a worthwhile investment.
Thus, after some preparation, although it cost a lot of money, the Li family managed to dress the more than three hundred refugees, beggars, and ordinary people who had been hired to impersonate members of the Li family as if they were nobles.
That day, Li Jiaguang prepared food for about forty tables.
At noon, Zhu Yunwen and Zhao Qingzhu arrived at the Li family's residence as promised.
He didn't show any anger; instead, he was very happy and came to the Li family's house as a guest with a big smile.
Seeing that everyone in the Li family was dressed appropriately and that there was plenty of food laid out in the large courtyard, Zhu Yunwen smiled even more happily.
In his view, since the Li family was going to hire those beggars and vagrants to impersonate their family members, they should treat them like family members.
Now that I've arrived, the Li family has no choice but to treat all these so-called family members equally, in order to avoid revealing any flaws.
In Zhu Yunwen's view, at least these displaced people could have a few days of real happiness.
In any case, Zhu Yunwen will not allow these powerful families to acquire more land by bribing people.
So why not seize this opportunity now? Let these powerful families bleed money like crazy, and let those beggars and vagrants who are usually starving and freezing have a chance to enjoy themselves among these powerful families.
In any case, this matter is not a loss for Zhu Yunwen, nor is it a loss for those beggars and vagrants. In the end, the only ones who will suffer are those self-righteous aristocratic families.
