On the streets of the capital, servants rode on horses and beat gongs, shouting, "His Royal Highness Prince Su is kind-hearted and considerate of the people. He is giving out porridge and clothes at his mansion. People in need can go there on their own."

A dozen servants rode on horses and beat gongs, advertising all over the streets.

When the poor people and beggars on the street heard that there was free food and clothes, they all rushed to Prince Su's palace.

There are crowds of people, it's very lively.

In the taverns and teahouses, ordinary people and children of wealthy families were talking about it.

"Why did Prince Su suddenly start giving out porridge and clothes?"

"Who knows! But these days, few people are willing to use their private treasury to help the people."

"It seems that Prince Su is a breath of fresh air in the royal family."

"Never mind. If these beggars are helped, we won't have to worry about having our food and clothes stolen during the winter."

……

People are still talking about it.

The publicity was very effective. In less than a cup of tea, hundreds of people gathered at the side door and the back door.

"Don't rush, line up and wait, everyone gets a share!"

"Those who cut in line and grab things will not get a share! Everyone get in line!"

……

Several servants were directing people at the door to line up.

Housekeeper Wu looked at so many people and couldn't help but feel a little worried, "Princess, with so many people, we don't have time to prepare so much food, and we don't have so many clothes!"

Su Lingyue looked at the people in line, "Come in batches, don't worry about the clothes."

Under Su Lingyue's command, the servant had already set up a table at the side door of the palace.

The cook in the kitchen followed Su Lingyue's order and started to cook porridge.

They worked very quickly and had cooked several pots of porridge in less than an incense stick of time.

Su Lingyue didn't have much time, so she cooked in the kitchen while serving porridge here.

"I agreed to add more clothes, where are my clothes?"

"Yeah, where are the clothes!"

"You're not lying to us!"

……

At this time, those who received the porridge began to ask where the clothes were.

The servant in the mansion looked at Su Lingyue, Su Lingyue nodded, and the servant began to speak.

"The prince will personally count the number of people and give you new cotton-padded clothes. Those who receive porridge, come with me into the palace!"

"real or fake?"

"You won't lie to us!"

"The prince is as good as his word. If he said he would give you cotton-padded clothes, he would definitely give them to you!"

After saying that, he asked someone to open the side door, and the servant led the people who had lined up into Furong Pavilion.

At the door of Furong Pavilion, Doctor Lu could not hear any sound from inside, nor could he see what was happening inside.

Just as he was getting extremely anxious, he saw a servant leading a large group of ragged people into the yard.

Both of them were stunned, not understanding what was happening, and then they saw Su Lingyue walking in with the crowd.

Yan Qing hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Who are the princess and the others? Why did you bring them into the yard?"

"They are the ones who can save the prince."

Su Lingyue said as she looked at Yan Qing, "How is it in there?"

Yan Qing shook his head, "After the prince asked us to come out, we could only hear the emperor's voice, and nothing else."

The only voice was the emperor's? How could it be!

Xiao Yu must have been in great pain after taking the medicine, so how come only the emperor's voice was heard!

"What are you talking about?" Su Lingyue looked at Yan Qing and asked anxiously.

"He was very angry and asked the prince to call out or something, but he didn't hear the prince's voice."

Su Lingyue's heart sank. No sound would be even worse!

She winked at a servant dressed as a beggar in the crowd, and the servant nodded and started shouting.

"Where's Prince Su? Come out and give us clothes!"

"Yeah, don't go back on your word!"

"Prince Su, come out!"

……

The noisy and bustling sound quickly reached the emperor's ears.

He paused on Xiao Yu's body and asked, "What's that sound?"

Han Feng also heard it. He was about to open the door to see what was going on when the door was suddenly opened.

"My Lord, the people are waiting for you!"

When Su Lingyue opened the door, she saw Xiao Yu lying on the ground covered in blood, with the emperor's foot on his chest.

Xiao Yu didn't move.

"Your Highness!" Su Lingyue shouted, and just as she was about to go over, she was blocked by soldiers a few meters away from the emperor.

The emperor took his feet away from Xiao Yu.

"Yue'er."

Su Lingyue could still hear Xiao Yu's voice.

Fortunately it’s not too late!

It was just so faint that it seemed like it would disappear at any moment.

Hearing Su Lingyue's voice, the servant dressed as a beggar rushed into the house and said, "Prince Su, where are the clothes you promised to give me?"

Seeing this, the others were afraid of being at a disadvantage and hurried to follow him.

When the people rushed into the hall, they saw the emperor in a dragon robe and Xiao Yu covered in blood.

The emperor didn't understand what was happening for a moment, and then he heard the person who rushed in shouting, "You must be the emperor! You usually don't care about us poor people, but now Prince Su wants to give us cotton clothes, but you beat him up like this. What are you thinking?"

When the others heard that it was the emperor, they became furious.

"You dog emperor, you usually don't care about us, but now someone cares about us, and you beat them up. What kind of emperor are you!"

"Let go of Prince Su!"

"Yes, let Prince Su go and give us cotton clothes!"

……

The emperor gradually calmed down, realized what had happened, and his face became even darker.

"My fellow citizens, you have all misunderstood. Prince Su's old illness has relapsed, and I am here to see him."

As he said this, he gave a wink to Eunuch Wan, who, along with two soldiers, helped the dying Xiao Yu up.

It is said to be supporting, but in fact it is holding.

Xiao Yu's legs didn't stand straight at all, they just hung down weakly.

Blood was still dripping from the corners of his lips, his chest was already red, his eyes were slightly open, and his head was barely propped up, proving that he was still alive.

"Your Highness!" Su Lingyue's eyes were burning with anger. She pushed the two guards away and ran to Xiao Yu.

Su Lingyue's tears fell like beads from a broken string.

She held Xiao Yu's bloodstained, pale cheek and asked with a sob, "My Lord, how are you?"

Xiao Yu opened his eyes with difficulty, "I'm fine."

He wanted to comfort Su Lingyue, but he couldn't even raise the corners of his lips to a smile.

At this time, many people were present, and they dared not stop it without the emperor's order.

Yan Qing and Doctor Lu followed Su Lingyue and went over to support Xiao Yu.

"Since we are still alive, please give us cotton clothes as soon as possible. We are freezing to death!"

"Yes, it's so cold, send it quickly!"

Su Lingyue looked at Butler Wu at the door, then looked at the emperor while holding back her tears.

"Your Majesty, the prince is seriously ill and cannot serve you. Originally, the palace set up a porridge stall to distribute porridge today, but there are too many people in the palace right now. You should return to the palace first! If father knew you were here, he would definitely be worried."

The emperor looked at Su Lingyue coldly. She wanted to use the gossips and the eyes of the public to prevent him from taking action against Xiao Yu openly.

"Very good, you are worthy of being Prime Minister Su's daughter!"

The emperor snorted coldly and signaled Han Feng to clear the way back to the palace.

Su Lingyue looked at the emperor's back coldly, "Farewell, Your Majesty!"

As soon as the emperor left, Su Lingyue asked Doctor Lu to take Xiao Yu's pulse.

"How about it?"

"The poison is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is the internal injuries. Yan Qing, carry the prince back to his room!"

Upon hearing this, the person at the door wanted to stop Xiao Yu from leaving.

"You guys agreed to give us cotton clothes, you can't just leave like this!"

"Yes!"

Su Lingyue stepped forward and looked at them with dignity, "Let the prince go back to heal his wounds. I am the princess, and I will give you an explanation."

Seeing that they were still hesitating, Su Lingyue threatened again, "If he dies because of you stopping him, you will get nothing!"

After hearing Su Lingyue's words, everyone made way for them, and several servants escorted Yan Qing and Doctor Lu away.

Su Lingyue suppressed the urge to accompany Xiao Yu and the heat in her eyes and began to deal with the matter of the cotton coat.

"Butler Wu, there is a batch of cotton clothes in the warehouse ready to be distributed to the servants. Give them to them first. For the rest who haven't received them yet, register them and let them come in order when they are ready."

"Yes, Princess, I just gave it to them. What about the servants?"

"I will definitely not let them suffer any loss. This month's salary will be doubled. The first batch of cotton clothes made will be distributed to the servants first, and the rest will be distributed to the people."

"Yes, princess."

After receiving the order, Butler Wu accompanied Su Lingyue to the warehouse to get cotton clothes.

After the first batch of people left, the yard finally became quiet.

Butler Wu and the servant began to register the others who had not received their gifts at the door.

After everything was in order, Su Lingyue could no longer suppress her worry about Xiao Yu and trotted back to the bedroom.
