Chapter 930: Good Fate

Translator: Atlas Studios    Editor: Atlas Studios

Princess Shaoyi opened an incense shop and produced many incense medicines to prevent and treat the disease. She supported the refugee camps in Longcheng.

Princess Shaoyi publicized some incense medicine recipes in her incense shop that could prevent illnesses and evil spirits. She asked everyone in the Liaodong area to make incense and use it. The commoners would fall sick less and the pressure on their lives would be reduced.

Princess Shaoyi had set up an industry in every refugee shelter. Not only did she accept a portion of the refugees to do work, but she also provided all kinds of help to the refugees who had been resettled. It ranged from the needs of daily life, to the conflicts between the refugees and the local residents because of their living habits, customs, and so on.

Princess Shaoyi had used the method of breeding seedlings to resolve the problem of the large- scale promotion of the planting of sweet potatoes. She had also resolved the problem of a large number of refugees exploring the land to settle down in Liaodong.

Princess Shaoyi cooperated with the Xie family and bought a large number of cows, sheep dung, and so on from the various livestock farms in the North. She also bought a large number of ducks and geese from the area of

Guangdong. She planned to raise them on a large scale in the Liaodong area to deal with the locust plague.

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Li could tell that there were many problems.

Princess Shaoyi had been in Xiangping for four months. In order to help the Imperial Court implement its national policy in the North, she had put in much more effort than what was stated in the memorial submitted to the Imperial Court by Lord Ye to seek credit for Princess Shaoyi.

It wasn’t that Eunuch Li suspected that Lord Ye hadn’t reported what he knew, or that he had lied and hidden it.

There were many things that had not passed through the government office, so there was no need for the government office to specially report them to the Imperial Court.

Meanwhile, Princess Shaoyi was not someone who liked to gain credit and ask for rewards. As long as it was not something that the Imperial Court was especially concerned about, she would not mention it.

Eunuch Li really admired Princess Shao Yi.

He had entered the palace since he was young and had been in the palace for a long time. He was best at understanding people.

He noticed that when the commoners mentioned Princess Shaoyi, the admiration in their voices and the respect on their faces could not be faked.

The more Princess Shaoyi did, the more it inevitably affected the interests of the nobles. Only then did Madam Han of Xian join forces with the consort party to attack Princess Shaoyi.

One of them framed King Yue Fei in order to hinder the implementation of the state policy and continued to be the local emperor in the North.

One took the opportunity to gain power in the court in order to suppress the royal faction.

Both sides took what they needed and hit it off.

From some words in the market, Eunuch Li inferred that the Han family of Xian had framed Princess Shaoyi and angered the public, causing the Bai family to join forces with many nobles in Liaodong to publicly stand up to suppress the Han family of Xi’an. Moreover, they had obtained the support of many scholars and commoners.

However, he still needed to investigate more details.

The courier station had been reorganized. Although it was not as meticulous as the palace, it still revealed uniqueness and comfort. Liaodong was a bitterly cold place, and the conditions of the courier station were limited. This was already not easy.

Eunuch Li was naturally satisfied.

It was no wonder that Eunuch Zhu kept saying, “Princess Shaoyi is a kind and magnanimous person. If such a person can form good karma when she’s not in power and try her best to form good karma, it won’t hinder her. She won’t lose anything anyway. In the future, she might have unexpected gains.”

“They don’t have expectations for the future and simply do a good deed a day. Meanwhile, we’ve done many things to harm our virtue. If we can be kind to those who have nothing to do with us, we should be kind. We don’t care about what happens when we’re alive. We just want our reputation. There’s no need to mention what will happen when Princess Shaoyi has gained power.”

After settling Eunuch Li and the others down, it was already late at night. The sun began to set in the west. Sun Changgui quickly returned to the Yu Garden to report to his young miss.

Yu Youyao nodded and asked how many people were accompanying Eunuch Li, who they were, where they were on duty in the palace, whether they had ranks, and so on.

Sun Changgui had not worked for nothing that day. He had gathered all the information he needed. Immediately, he picked out the famous people in the group and told her everything.

Yu Youyao had an idea and was satisfied with Sun Changgui’s work. Thinking that he had worked hard for a day, she rewarded him. ‘Eunuch Li and the others will probably stay in Xiangping City for a few days. Work harder and be thorough about the matters at the courier station these few days. If there’s anything, come back in time to report.”

Sun Changgui couldn’t ask for more and quickly agreed.

After Sun Changgui left, Yu Youyao called Mother Tao over. “l think the reward sent by the Imperial Court should be sent to the residence soon. Go and ask Auntie Xu how to prepare this gift.”

There were about 300 people in Eunuch Zhu’s group. For example, Eunuch Li, who was in charge of delivering the rewards, had to receive more ceremonious rewards. In addition, the person in charge of rewarding this time was Eunuch Zhu from the palace. The gifts for Eunuch Zhu should be even more ceremonious, and the accompanying imperial guards needed a heavy reward.

Depending on the grade of the eunuchs, the palace maids, and the other people, the reward for their hard work should also be thorough.

The next morning, just as Yu Youyao finished her breakfast, Xia Tao came over to report, “Young Miss, Eunuch Li has brought the Empress Dowager’s decree and the rewards from the Imperial Court. He has already set off from the courier station and will arrive at the Yu Garden in about an hour.’

Yu Youyao asked, “Has the Old Master been informed?”

Women of the Great Zhou Dynasty could not establish a household. She had “temporarily” left her father’s clan. Even if she lived alone in the Yu Garden, she was still one with her mother’s clan. The Imperial Court had given her a reward, so it was only right for her relatives from her mother’s clan to step in.

Xia Tao quickly said, “I’ve already sent someone to inform the Old Master.”

Yu Youyao was a little relieved and quickly returned to her room to freshen up.

When Auntie Xu received the news, she rushed over. Dong Mei, who was a little flustered because of her nervousness, finally calmed down.

Auntie Xu smiled. “You’ve already experienced it a few times. How can you still be nervous? You’re Eldest Miss’s most capable person. If this happens again, you can’t count on me anymore.”

Dong Mei patted her chest. “This kind of thing has nothing to do with how many times I’ve experienced it. When I saw the people from the palace and heard the sharp and thin voices of the eunuchs, it was like needles stabbing into my ears.”

Chun Xiao also nodded. “l don’t even know where to place my hands and feet.”

Xia Tao also stuck out her tongue. “As long as the eunuchs in the palace proclaim an imperial edict and or give a reward, they represent the nobles in the palace. I heard that there’s someone in the ceremonial envoy who specially keeps an eye on the etiquette of each family, from their makeup and clothes, to their words and actions. If there’s anything inappropriate, it will reach the ears of the nobles. Just thinking about it makes me feel afraid.”

Yu Youyao was amused, but she did not think it was an exaggeration. There were already families in the dynasty who had been rewarded, but they were accused of looking down on the other party because of etiquette mistakes. As a result, the entire family was punished.

Sometimes, heaven and hell were decided by a person in power.

Even she was fully focused on dealing with every person who came from the palace. She did not dare to be careless at all..
