Chapter 54: Experience the Snow Disaster
Seeing the seriousness written on Gu Yuzhi's face, Shen Yu'an stepped out of the carriage. The driver held an umbrella and protected him all the way to the Yamen soup kitchen.

As soon as Cai Lian raised her head, she saw his outfit and leaned towards him: "Young Master."

Her voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone around to hear. Caiyue raised her head and looked over, and also bowed: "Master."

Shen Yu'an nodded slightly and looked at the big pot of porridge in the Yamen: "Thank you for your hard work. Where are Butler Xie and Qi San and the others?"

Cai Lian whispered: "Qi San escorts them to carry the pillars. Thanks to the housekeeper for helping with Qin's doctor. There are more people injured today, and there is almost trouble with Qin's doctor."

Shen Yu'an frowned slightly. The Qin Court was sent to provide disaster relief, but there were guards around him, and there were also government officials maintaining order. What trouble could possibly happen?
Cai Lian walked closer: "Li Ji Trading Company originally planned to build a porridge stall, but we didn't expect that Wen Mansion actually sent a doctor out. Not to be outdone, they also asked the doctors from the medical center to set up a stall here to practice medicine. .”

It's all about saving people, so it should be a good thing. How could something go wrong?
Shen Yu'an said anxiously: "That's the point."

Cai Lian whispered, "I'm not allowed to explain it to you." Seeing Shen Yu'an's expression of displeasure, she continued, "The typhoid medicine we brought is free, but as for the medicine for external application, Qin Yuan's decision It wasn't much, and it didn't take long to use up. The doctor from Li Jishang Medical Clinic happened to come, and he kept sarcastic at us. I don't know where I found out that His Highness bought Chen Yuanwai's house a few days ago and said that we Wen family I have money to buy a bodyguard agency and a big house, but I don’t have money to provide medical treatment to the common people.”

She sighed as she spoke: "You also know Judge Qin's temper. He got angry immediately. If Xie Changshi hadn't suppressed him from the side, the doctor at Liji Trading Company would have been scolded to death by him."

After hearing this, Shen Yu'an was not so anxious. He saw people coming up around him and raised his chin: "Okay, let's go back and give porridge to the people. Remember to make it thicker. It's freezing here, so just drink it." Ordering thin soup will not ward off the cold."

He turned around and pointed to the carriage: "I brought a few bags of rice from the house. You can arrange for them to be distributed to everyone."

Cai Lian looked touched: "I would like to thank the young master on behalf of the people of Changzhou."

Magistrate Qi, who happened to come over, frowned and looked at Shen Yuan, no, who is this person?
He heard a servant come to report that the young master of Wenfu was here. Magistrate Qi hurried over with the police, for fear that His Highness would be in danger. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got here, he heard Cai Lian say thank you. Master?

He was full of doubts, which young master was this?

Why doesn't he know which young master in Changzhou looks like this?

Xie Changshi heard the movement and followed him. He saw Shen Yu'an at a glance and dared to say before Magistrate Qi spoke: "Master, you don't have to come in person. The disaster relief is being carried out in an orderly manner. Magistrate Qi is here, so you can relax." .”

Shen Yu'an hummed: "I asked someone to bring some food and herbs."

Magistrate Qi glanced at Xie Changshi and saw Xie Changshi approaching him and whispering: "This is Young Master Wen of our Wenfu."

Magistrate Qi's eyes widened.

Bullying, right?He is not yet dim-sighted!
Xie Changshi winked: "If you have any questions, please wait until the disaster relief is over. Just remember that this is our Young Master Wen outside."

At this time, many people passing by Wen Mansion stopped to salute when they saw Shen Yuan, and said in unison: "Young Master."

Magistrate Qi calmed down and bowed to Shen Yu'an: "On behalf of the people of Changzhou, I would like to thank Master Wen for his righteousness!"

The few people standing together were the focus. Coupled with the shouts of the people under Wen Mansion, the surrounding people knew that the young master of Wen Mansion who had never shown up finally appeared today, and he showed up with food.Compared with the porridge at Liji Trading Company, which was so clear that you could see the bottom, the porridge cooked by the Yamen and Wenfu was simply as good as heaven and earth.

More and more refugees are queuing up at the soup kitchen here. When passing by Shen Yuan, they will say sincerely: "Master Wen, thank you."

Shen Yu'an did not put on any airs, and nodded slightly to these people, then exchanged glances with Xie Changshi, and the two of them walked in the direction of the Qin Court Judge, followed carefully by Wenfu's carriage behind them.

Gu Yuzhi was in the carriage, but his eyes were drawn to the refugees.

Through the cracks of the carriage, he could clearly see these refugees, barely clothed, hiding close to each other in makeshift refugee sheds, keeping each other warm, with no expression on their faces even when they were holding porridge. .

However, there were a few children in the shed, who gained some strength after eating the porridge, chasing each other and playing, and laughing from time to time.

A little further past the refugee shed was a simpler shed. Gu Yuzhi looked at the things piled inside and asked the guards to find out that they were the bodies of dead people.

At this moment, Gu Yuzhi felt as if he was sick. He felt extremely uncomfortable, and his little face, which was always smiling, became extremely serious.

The carriage gradually stopped until it reached the place where the Qin court judge was. Xie Changshi turned around and got into the carriage on the pretext of taking a rest. The prefect Qi, who was kept in the dark, followed without a second thought and stepped into the carriage with one foot. , only to see Gu Yuzhi was there.

He was neither up nor down, but was stunned on the spot.

Xie Changshi said softly: "Prefect Qi, come in quickly, don't let the cold wind blow by His Highness."

Magistrate Qi quickly closed the door and said, "Your Highness, I didn't know that Your Highness was here and I was rash. Please punish me."

Only then did Gu Yuzhi look away, looking at the falling snow on Magistrate Qi's shoulders, soaked clothes and boots, and whispered: "Prefect Qi, thank you for your hard work, please sit down and drink a glass of hot water."

There was a small teapot on the small red clay stove. The water had boiled and white smoke was rising. Hearing this, Xie Changshi poured a cup for Magistrate Qi: "Your Highness is still young and cannot drink tea. You will Just drink something to warm yourself up, I’ll be busy later.”

Magistrate Qi's hands and feet were almost frozen. He took the tea cup and turned it around in his palm. After a while, he said, "Click, Xie Changshi, what's going on with Master Wen?"

Hearing this, both Gu Yuzhi and Xie Changshi looked over. Magistrate Qi was inexplicably looked at by the two of them. Then a flash of inspiration suddenly dawned on him, and he secretly hated himself for being so talkative: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I shouldn't ask these questions."

Gu Yuzhi didn't say anything. He turned around and continued to look outside. Xie Changshi spoke up: "It's nothing. There will be many places where Master Wen will appear in the future. He will have to ask Magistrate Qi to help cover him up. Magistrate Qi will know sooner or later."

After Magistrate Qi left with a thoughtful look on his face, Gu Yuzhi said: "Xie Changshi, is it really okay for Magistrate Qi to know this?"

"Your Highness, please relax. Magistrate Qi is quite reliable. Besides, his every move must be watched by people from Liji Trading Company. Even if he doesn't want to, he is already one of ours in the eyes of others."

Gu Yuzhi's face was shocked. He always felt that Xie Changshi had taught him something very important...
