Although this girl is not very old, no matter whether she raises her hands or raises her lips, she reveals a sultry charm:

"This slave has seen the official family, and the official family is blessed with good fortune and good health."

"Guan family, this servant came to meet the official family this time. It is because of the Queen's decree that she came here to hand over something to the official family."

As the girl spoke, she handed a sandalwood box filled with hollow flowers in front of Zhao Ji.

When Zhao Ji accepted the box, opened the button door in the front, and slowly opened the sandalwood box.

Several banknotes with very large denominations were quietly placed inside.

Zhao Ji gently pressed his hand, and three pictures appeared immediately.

Three of these are a total of 30 taels of silver.

In addition to the two that Liu Tanxin asked Xia Lan to send before.

Added together, the total is 50 taels of silver.

Although he and Liu Tanxin were a legitimate couple, a true couple in the legal sense.

But at this moment, when I suddenly received such a large sum of money, I still felt extremely touched.

I couldn't help but sigh a few words in my heart.

After all, they are a couple, no matter what, they are better than others.

Zhao Ji waved his hand to Xia Lan with a pleased expression, gesturing for her to retreat first.

Then he turned around, took out the 30 taels of silver notes from the sandalwood box, and put them away in a secret place.

At this moment, although the funds for disaster relief in Northeast China have been put in place, who should be sent to take charge of the disaster relief has become an extremely headache for Zhao Ji.

Su Yuanjing's place can't be used anymore. After all, he still has things on his hands, so he really can't leave him.

As for the people in Cai Jing's faction, they don't even think about it.

In this way, you can't let me, a king of a country, go to the Northeast to do this in person, right?

Zhao Ji's brows wrinkled tighter and tighter, and one of his fists was clenched much tighter than before.

Until his entire fist began to turn slightly white.

His eyes suddenly widened!

What if I asked Liu Tanxin to find a reliable candidate among her natal family to do this?

Wouldn't it be better than finding someone else?

First, at least you don’t have to worry that the money will be embezzled by the person who executes it.

Secondly, it would be much more reliable if Liu Tanxin personally selected the people.

If that doesn't work, I can just reward him with an official position after he finishes this matter.

Anyway, after all, they are all members of one's own family, and it is not considered as advantageous to outsiders.

Like this, it's really great.

When Zhao Ji thought of this, he was no longer entangled in his heart.

After getting all the silver, he wanted Eunuch Sheng to take him to Kunning Palace.

However, before the door could be pushed open, the foot that had just stepped out was taken back again.

Like this, I'm afraid it won't work either.

Just imagine, it would take more than ten days to send a message from the capital to nearby Yangzhou.

Even if I find Liu Tanxin now and ask her to arrange those things.

After that back and forth, it would probably take more than 20 days at the earliest after Liu Tanxin's family arrived in the capital.

What if that person is ready in the capital and takes this batch of silver to the Northeast to provide relief?

Adding all the time together, it is estimated that it will be a month later at the earliest.

This was a whole month's delay.

I don’t know how many more people will freeze to death.

The more anxious Zhao Ji felt, the harder his big hands rubbed the long hair on his forehead.

By the end, he almost rubbed a few strands of hair off his forehead.

But even so, Zhao Ji still hasn't come up with a way to get the best of both worlds.

……

Since Lin Chong entered the prison camp of Cangzhou, his life there was not bad because he received frequent care from the officials of Chai Daguan.

Not only did he not have to be served by the killing stick, but he even had a few delicious meals of wine and meat from time to time.

Just when Lin Chong thought that he would live like this for the next few years or even ten years...

"Above" suddenly gave him a new appointment.

That is, let him go to the forage field more than ten miles away to take care of the army's fodder.

Lin Chong didn't think much about such an appointment.

After all, now that you are on someone else's territory, it is reasonable to listen to someone else's discipline.

What's more, the army fodder yard is much more comfortable and comfortable than the prison camp, right?

Thinking of this, Lin Chong felt a little inexplicable joy in his heart.

Lin Chong didn't have many belongings, and it only took half a quarter of an hour to bring all his belongings.

When Lin Chong and the two messengers responsible for leading him walked out of the prison camp and went straight to the forage yard.

In the sky, heavy snow like goose feathers had already fallen.

The cold wind blows frequently, mixed with countless snowflakes all over the sky.

He only hit the person's face until it hurt.

Unconsciously, Lin Chong tightened the clothes around his chest tighter to his arms.

This is to prevent you from getting caught in the cold wind when you are not paying attention.

After these people left, they walked for half an hour.

During this journey, these people also discovered a mountain temple standing in the wind and snow.

The temples here are very strange.

There is no shop in front of the village or behind the village.

Just like that, standing here naked.

These people couldn't help but be amazed.

In fact, before this, Lin Chong did not believe in those theories about ghosts and gods.

I think those things are used by people with ulterior motives to deceive some pedantic people.

However, after he suffered a series of bad luck in recent days, he unknowingly began to trust these things more and more.

Lin Chong first complained to the police officer who was escorting him, and then he wanted to go into the mountain temple to stay for a while to escape the wind and snow.

Perhaps, the two policemen escorting Lin Chong also felt that today's wind and snow were really too strong, and it was like a knife cutting people's bodies and faces.

So when he heard what Lin Chong said, he followed Lin Chong into the mountain temple.

This place is very dilapidated.

Dust, cobwebs, everywhere.

When the oncoming earthy smell suddenly penetrated into the nose, several people who suddenly broke into the place started to sneeze.

I don’t know how long it’s been since anyone came here.

The original colors of the mountain gods enshrined at the top are no longer visible at this moment.

Only the aura of not being angry and being intimidating is always shocking here.

So that all the people who come and go dare not face him face to face.

Lin Chong looked at the mountain god enshrined on the throne with confusion.

There was a sudden bitterness and tightness in my throat.

After worshiping very devoutly, he left here with the two messengers and continued on his way.

But somehow, at this moment, the wooden door that was so easy to push open now seemed to be blocked by strong wind.

No matter how hard the pusher pushed it, or whether it was pushed out together with Lin Chong, it didn't move at all.

It was as if the harder they pushed, the stronger the strong wind outside.

When Lin Chong was shocked, he suddenly remembered the 32 words Zhao Ji gave him when he parted with him.
