Once Ji Zhen returned to the residence, she called Li Da and the butler Lin Bei into the study. Before the two could speak, Ji Zhen told them everything that she saw, and in the end, she stopped to listen to their opinions.

Li Da and Housekeeper Lin looked at each other, and knew that their Miss felt pity for them. Lin Bei thought for a moment, then said: "Miss, although this matter can be done by anyone, you are after all, Pingbei Mansion's direct.

"No matter what others say, and what's more, are there not enough rumours about me in the Hanzhou City?" Ji Zhen stroked a strand of hair by his ear, "Regardless of what others say, those victims are the most pitiful people. They don't have to worry about their reputation, and Sunflower House has never bought from the public, so they still have this much to show for it."

Li Da had also guessed what Ji Zhen was thinking, and agreed, "Since Miss has said it like that, then we will do it, I will pass down the orders, let the people from the residence take out the old clothes, and also give us some food from the manor, we will try our best to help out."

We can help with these clothes, but the food is already here. Since the people from the imperial government have arrived, there will naturally be enough food for disaster relief, so we cannot steal the limelight from the imperial government.

Ji Zhen understood that since this year of calamity was the time to gather the hearts of people, a few days ago, this city already spread rumors that Ji Family was stone-cold, that he had killed his father's concubine, and was even a Madame under house arrest. No matter how these rumors were spread, at the end, they would naturally be exaggerated by others, and at the end, they would definitely not be rumors.

Moreover, this Pingbei Mansion could already be considered as one of the overlords of the Hanzhou City, if he obtained the hearts of the people, the Emperor and Emperor would probably be worried about whether the Ji Family had some ulterior motives, and if he had a change of heart, with a wave of Ji Quan's hand, he would be able to immediately rise to the top and take the title of king.

"That's right!" When Ji Qin heard Ji Zhen leaving the residence, she hurried over to take a look. When she heard Ji Zhen's words outside the door, she had the feeling that this was the first time her family had a girl who had grown up together.

"Old Ancestor!"

"Greetings, Great Madame."

Everyone paid their respects to Ji Qin. Since Ji Qin is a soldier, there was no need for the whole family to be so courteous. They waved their sleeves and said, "You don't have to bother with false etiquette.

Right now, in the Pingbei Mansion, the only person who could speak without changing anything was this Ji Qin. She was the one who had the most benefits in the Palace and was also the person with the highest seniority.

Moreover, Ji Qin had trained in the State Protecting Temple for many years. Although the vicious aura from the battlefield had not been erased, this outsider's heart of thought was still filled with benevolence and knowledge.

Once the order was sent to every corner of the Ji Mansion, everyone began to get busy. After all, even the Ji Qin had found a bunch of things that they did not need and sent them to the Sunflower House, saying that she wanted Ji Zhen to bring them to the victims.

As for the two princes, after they had seen these relief stations, they immediately gathered all the officials and sent their men to distribute all the food supplies to the various locations, and personally sent people to keep an eye on them.

These were all human lives, the moment they did not pay attention, more than half of the Hanzhou City would be killed. After the princes had gathered their officials for a meeting, they immediately went to investigate who had failed their duty and dragged them to the entrance of the market to behead the public.

By the time Ji Quan received the news, more than half of the officials in the Hanzhou City had already been beheaded. It seemed that these two princes had come for the real reason of the commoners.

The quilts brought by Ji Zhen were put to good use, and some of the children with weak bodies were gathered together. The few of them were covered with a thick quilt, and the clothes worn by the children were all tattered, if they did not resist the cold, they would freeze to death.

Only, Ji Zhen looked at these children who were around Ji Feng's age. All of them were hungry to the point that they were thin and yellow, hungry to the point that they couldn't even stand up.

Ji Zhen followed the servants in distributing the relief supplies. The elderly, children and the sick were the first, but when she saw these children, she couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. In her previous life, she had wanted to protect her own children, but in the end, she couldn't.

These children did not know what Ji Family was, they only knew that this Big Sister Miss was a good person and even gave them clothes to share the porridge. The little bastards fought over the porridge, some of them even scalded their tongues to the point that they were not willing to let go.

Ji Zhen had specifically asked Dong Mei before she made this medicinal porridge with the intent to strengthen her body and protect herself from the cold. Some children even held onto the bowl of porridge and refused to drink it, saying that they would keep it for their parents.

Ji Zhen cleaned up everything in the house that was not needed, even the clothes that were not in the servants' rooms, were all taken out by Ji Zhen, but this was only a cup of water for a carriage, even several carts of clothes were not enough.

When the Prince heard about the arrangements made by the Ji Mansion, he immediately informed the officials to tidy up the clothes that were not needed at home and brought them out as a relief for the disaster. But how could these officials be willing? Even if they were useless, they weren't willing to give it to the victims. For a moment, they were deadlocked.

Until an imperial decree arrived at the Ji Mansion, these officials began to gather. The reason was precisely because the emperor knew what Ji Zhen was trying to do. He had actually issued an imperial decree saying that Ji Zhen was to be bestowed the title of Princess Lianxin! This was a princess with a title, even those princess without a title could not compare to her.

Furthermore, the imperial edict had praised Ji Zhen greatly, and even bestowed him with a jade ruyi. All of a sudden, the Miss s of the various families started to worry, thinking that if they could just donate the things they do not need, they could too. If they had known earlier that they could receive a reward from the Emperor for donating these things, they wouldn't have waited until today.

Moreover, all these s who are stewards, have sufficient private storage. In order to gain a good impression in front of the emperor, even if they were to donate new clothes, they would probably be willing.

Thus, all the Madame s in the capital and Hanzhou City started to respond. If this place had two carriages, then this house would definitely have one more car, and normally, they would not be able to compare to this car. If they were to lose face here, then how could they continue to stay in these noble Madame s?

As a result, they didn't lack clothes for a while.
