Chapter 305: Subsidies
"Don't worry, I will absolutely not tell my father about this, so you don't need to worry too much at all."
However, Xu Jinxin genuinely believes that Zhao Wuji is quite adept at hiding his true identity. For so many years, Xu Jinxin has been completely unaware of this. More importantly, it is truly unbelievable that Zhao Wuji has been able to remain hidden for so long.
On the other side, Gan Luo must have already come to check, and he found that these common people were very thin and weak, which seemed to be caused by long-term lack of food and clothing.
At this time, Gan Luo immediately ordered many clothes to be made and distributed them to the common people. Gan Luo also decided to give them some subsidies so that those in the world who were not full could have food to eat.
As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. Perhaps that's true. More importantly, the emperor must have the support of the people. Otherwise, the country will eventually collapse.
According to Gan Luo's understanding, the real reason for the downfall of the previous dynasty seemed to be the emperor's incompetence and foolishness.
Faced with these difficulties, the emperor did not solve them, but let them develop unchecked. As a result, many people could no longer survive, and the dynasty was eventually overthrown, resulting in this regime.
Gan Luo looked at the common people and told them to stay there and that if they needed more food, there was more for them. Hearing Gan Luo's words, the people knelt down on the ground. "Your Highness, you are truly our benefactor. Without you, we would have nowhere to go."
Upon hearing what they said, Gan Luo immediately told them, "You don't need to worry about anything. I'm here to protect you. Even if the sky falls, I'll be here to hold it up for you. You just need to stay here and be safe."
Now they need to find a place for everyone to live, but which place can provide them with a place to live is a bit of a headache for Gan Luo.
The only thing Gan Luo can do now is to find a suitable place for them to grow crops. Only in this place can they grow food and have enough to eat.
At this moment, Gan Yanling also arrived in person. Seeing Gan Luo busy at work, Gan Yanling approached her. "Elder sister, you've worked so hard these past few days. Thank you so much for your help. I even considered bestowing upon you a title..."
Gan Luo turned to look at Gan Yanling and made a shushing gesture. "There's no need to say anything more here. I want to tell you something: everything I've done was voluntary."
Gan Luo simply didn't want to see these ordinary people homeless. He only hoped that these ordinary people could have a home to return to, and more importantly, that they could live and work in peace and contentment. This could be considered as being in Kidd, after all, Gan Luo's hands were stained with a lot of blood. Lin Fengmian also came to Gan Luo's side.
"Greetings to Your Highness the Princess."
Upon seeing Lin Fengmian's arrival, Gan Luo inquired about the extent of Lin Fengmian's injuries. "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My injuries have healed considerably, so Your Highness need not worry too much. On the contrary, Your Highness's injuries are still not healed, yet you have been working tirelessly here."
Gan Yanling suddenly remembered that Gan Luo still had injuries. At this moment, Gan Yanling told Gan Luo that she had questioned Xi Nufeng, but Xi Nufeng had not said a word from beginning to end. More importantly, he had started a hunger strike.
"I never expected that Xi Nufeng would start a hunger strike here at this time. It really surprised me. But since it is Xi Nufeng who has started a hunger strike, let him go on a hunger strike."
Gan Luo believed that the truth would eventually come out, and all he had to do was wait patiently.
After Gan Yanling left, Gan Luo immediately turned her attention to Lin Fengmian. "I want to ask you something now: why did you think the Prime Minister was behind this at the time?"
Lin Fengmian told Gan Luo that it was because Prime Minister Xu had always disliked Gan Luo, right? Since he disliked Gan Luo, it must have been Prime Minister Xu who did it. Lin Fengmian then suggested to Gan Luo, "Why don't we just have our subordinates kill Prime Minister Xu, and then I'll take his life in return?"
Unexpectedly, Gan Luo slapped Lin Fengmian across the face, leaving a claw mark on Lin Fengmian's face.
"I only want to tell you one thing: don't do these things here, understand? If anything happens to you, don't blame me for being impolite."
When Lin Fengmian heard Gan Luo say this, and could feel the anger in Gan Luo's heart, he simply looked down and saw Lin Fengmian's current appearance. Gan Luo felt a little uncomfortable.
She simply couldn't understand why Lin Fengmian would place all the blame on Prime Minister Xu, even though Prime Minister Xu did indeed have many lives on his hands.
Now, the only thing Gan Luo needs to do is to find evidence of all the evil deeds that Prime Minister Xu has committed, and collect all of this evidence. Once the evidence is collected, he will expose all of these things, and then Prime Minister Xu will surely face certain death.
"I will heed Your Highness's teachings. I was too hasty in my actions and I am willing to go back and accept my punishment."
Upon hearing the words "accept punishment," Gan Luo became furious: "I really don't understand why you have to accept punishment just because you have pharyngitis. Do you want to be covered in wounds? I finally managed to remove these scars from your body, and now you have some new ones."
"These scars that Your Highness left on my body are something I feel a little proud of. I don't think there's anything wrong with them. If Your Highness doesn't like them, I certainly won't show them."
