Chapter 180 Gong Ming
Several young ladies from official families, led by Miss Lu, sent their trusted aides to put pressure on the government, which led to the government rushing to stop the situation.
With the government in place, no refugees dared to cause trouble.
Naturally, the news of Shen Wei's events today spread to various mansions in the capital.
When Qin Shuyu heard Su Zhu's report, a smile appeared on his face.
"That's more like her way of doing things."
"No one in Kyoto noticed that there was injustice in disaster relief. We thought everyone would be helped, but it turns out that there was very little food for orphans and widows to eat."
"Sometimes, family members can also be a knife that stabs you in disguise."
"However, only Shen Wei dared to be the first in the world to stipulate that only women and children can receive porridge."
"Su Zhu, go there in person and give the ten thousand taels I prepared to Shen Wei. This will be considered as my contribution to the disaster relief efforts."
Same thing.
Different voices were heard in the Prime Minister's Residence, the Shangshufang, the Shilang's Residence and other residences.
Some people think that Shen Wei is just trying to attract attention. The government in the capital has already provided grain for alms, but she is getting involved to make herself look so powerful. As a girl, she doesn't know how to restrain herself and stay out of trouble.
Some people, however, think that she is careful, brave, and kind.
Several young ladies from official families who had a good relationship with Miss Lu had already changed their opinion of Shen Wei without realizing it. Upon hearing about this, they all sent their confidants to give money to Shen Wei.
Shen Wei used half of the money to buy food and the other half to pay for medical expenses.
Juxianlou has a loud name, but its geographical location is not very good.
Although it is also in the capital, it is not on the most bustling street, but on a more remote street.
Because the name is so loud, some of my colleagues often make sarcastic remarks about it.
The shopkeeper stood at the counter today and talked to the accountant inside the counter: "I'm afraid that the capital city will be in turmoil during this period..."
"Well, those people always say that the Juxian Tower is in a remote location and that important people can't come here."
"I see that at least two important people have come today."
The accountant raised his head and glanced across the living room, but didn't see the so-called big shot.
He looked towards the door again, but there was no official clearing the way. Where was the big shot?
The accountant looked at the shopkeeper in confusion, his eyes clearly saying, "Shopkeeper, have you been possessed by some yin and yang recently, and that's why you started talking nonsense?"
The shopkeeper was not annoyed. Instead, he greeted the middle-aged man who walked in with his head held high with a smile.
"Sir, your arrival brings honor to our store."
"Sir, please come in."
The accountant looked at him again and again, but still could not see what noble quality there was in this man.
He only saw that the man had a martial air, like a soldier in the army, and at most a centurion. In this capital city where dignitaries run around everywhere, a centurion is not considered decent.
The man glanced at the stairs to the second floor, and the shopkeeper immediately understood: "You are with the nobleman on the second floor."
Seeing that the shopkeeper was so observant, the man couldn't help but glance over and then nodded.
The shopkeeper personally took the man upstairs, and only went downstairs after confirming that the distinguished guest on the second floor was waiting for this man.
The second floor of Juxian Building has been reserved.
At this time, apart from the man who just came up, there were only two people in the Juxian Building. A young man in purple clothes was sitting by the window, and the other man in black brocade clothes was standing behind the man in purple.
The man pursed his lips and walked over quickly. Just as he was about to speak, the young man in purple clothes spoke.
"Gongming, no need to be polite, sit down."
