Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 435: The Waste Prince, So Prestigious

The next morning, Xiao Yan'an, who had not slept all night, came to pick up Ji Chuhe.

"Ma'am, everything is arranged, we can set off."

"Yeah." Ji Chuhe responded softly and walked out from behind the screen.

"Madam, what are you..."

Ji Chuhe was dressed in men's clothes and looked quite heroic.

"Prince, women's attire is complicated and inconvenient to move around in. This time I will wear men's clothes and travel with you." Ji Chuhe explained softly.

"Alright." Xiao Yan'an agreed with Ji Chuhe's approach and couldn't help but look at Ji Chuhe from head to toe. "Madam, you look so good in men's clothes!"

"Let's go." Ji Chuhe walked in front.

Xiao Yanan followed immediately.

Outside the prince's mansion, there were two teams of people standing, and they looked well-trained.

"Ma'am, this is the guard that our uncle gave us."

“It looks pretty safe.”

"Let's get in the car."

"Ah."

The two men got on the carriage and immediately drove towards the city gate.

At this time, the city gate was surrounded by people and no one could get in or out.

Many people also came to donate some supplies, and the scene was chaotic.

Jin Mingxue led people to maintain order, his head covered in sweat.

"The Crown Prince and his wife are here!" someone shouted.

"Why are you here so early? The things I want to donate haven't been registered yet. I don't know if I can make it in time."

"I don't care about that. Even if I can't register, I've already got my stuff. I can just load it into the car and take it away."

"That's true. I'm just doing my best to be kind. It doesn't matter whether I remember your name or not."

Last night, the Prince's Mansion spread the word that all the people who donated supplies would be announced after registration, and then displayed outside the government office.

Xiao Yan'an jumped off the carriage and walked towards Jin Mingxue.

"Prince, there are so many people who want to donate supplies. It is impossible to register them all, and we can't delay your departure." Jin Mingxue looked embarrassed.

"We don't need to register! Just load the things into the car!" someone shouted.

"I won't register either. I'm very poor anyway and don't have much."

"Then, all those that don't need to be registered can go over there to load the trucks, and those that need to be registered can just wait and see if there's enough time." Jin Mingxue made the decision immediately.

In an instant, the crowd split into two groups.

"Master Jin, the people are so enthusiastic, thanks to you for coming to help!"

"This is also my job." Jin Mingxue responded with a smile.

"Where are the people we recruited last night?"

"Over there, I'll take the prince to have a look. We have recruited 200 people. If the prince hadn't said that the maximum number of people he wanted was 200, I think we could have recruited 500."

"Two hundred people are enough."

Jin Mingxue led Xiao Yan'an to the people.

They were also helping to load the car.

They are all strong men.

"Your Highness, you must be extremely careful on this trip. I will be looking forward to your safe return with your wife every day."

Xiao Yan'an raised his hand and put his arm around Jin Mingxue's shoulders, "Master Jin, don't worry. When I come back, Master Jin will spend some money to treat me to a meal. How about that?"

"Of course, of course!" Jin Mingxue responded repeatedly.

Soon, all the goods were loaded, a total of more than 20 carriages, each of which was fully loaded. These were donated by the Prince's Mansion and the people.

There were still fifty carriages lined up outside the city, waiting for Xiao Yanan to take over.

This is the disaster relief grain allocated by the court.

Originally, the emperor was only going to allocate 30 carts of grain. However, he received news that Xiao Yan'an was raising funds from the people, and the effect was quite good, so he temporarily increased the number to 50 carts.

However, it is not known how long these supplies can last after being transported there.

The team set out in a mighty manner.

Jin Mingxue and the people watched the group leave.

Ji Chuhe and Xiao Yan'an's carriage was in the front, and Rong Song was accompanied by ten guards.

In the middle and back of the convoy, there were guards from the Rongguo Mansion and the Crown Prince's Mansion.

If you take the official road all the way, you will arrive at Funing County in five days.

Funing County was the least affected of the six counties.

Ji Chuhe looked at the topographic map spread out on the table, thoughtfully.

"Madam, let's go to Funing first. After arriving in Funing, should we go to Qutan or Dingsui first? The distance between these two counties and Funing is about the same."

"We won't go to these two counties." Ji Chuhe responded softly, "If we really go to all six counties, there is no hope of coming back alive. We will stay in Funing."

Xiao Yan'an didn't understand, but he believed in Ji Chuhe unconditionally.

"Everything is up to Madam's arrangement."

"After the prince arrived in Funing, he pretended to be unwell to delay time."

"Okay!" Xiao Yan'an agreed immediately.

Ji Chuhe assigned Rong Song another task, asking him to deliver a message to the county magistrate of Funing in the name of Xiao Yan'an, asking the county magistrate of Funing to comfort the victims first.

Plan the location of the porridge shed and build it in advance.

When the news was delivered to Funing at full speed, the county magistrate of Funing was still in the room of his newly married concubine.

His good time was interrupted and he looked angrily at the person who came to deliver the message.

"Your Highness came to deliver the supplies in person. Shouldn't he just unload the supplies and leave? As for how to arrange these supplies, don't I have the final say?"

"If the county magistrate has any questions, you can submit a memorial to the emperor to ask for clarification."

This sentence successfully suppressed the momentum of the Funing County Magistrate.

"Please reply to the prince. I will definitely arrange it according to your request."

As soon as the guard who delivered the message left, the expression of the Funing County Magistrate changed.

"Prince? Humph!"

His tone was full of contempt.

In his eyes, a prince who has no real power and only a title is nothing.

When Xiao Yan'an arrives in Funing, he will let Xiao Yan'an know who has the final say in Funing!

On the evening of the fifth day, Xiao Yan'an arrived in Funing County with a large amount of supplies.

The governor of Funing County personally went out of the city to welcome him.

What he received was not Xiao Yan'an, but the supplies allocated by the court.

Xiao Yan'an got off the carriage and looked at the Funing County Magistrate who was smiling in front of him.

"Your Highness, you must have been exhausted on the journey. I have specially prepared a welcoming banquet for you. Please come in."

"A welcoming banquet? Funing has been hit by a disaster, and the people are in dire straits and suffering terribly. As a county magistrate, you still have the mind to hold a banquet? Mr. County Magistrate, you are not really a corrupt official who embezzles relief supplies for your own benefit!" Xiao Yan'an came up and questioned.

"This... How is this possible, Prince, you are really wronged!"

"Whether you have been wronged or not, you will know after I enter the city and see the real situation of the people." Xiao Yan'an shook his sleeves and walked directly into the city.

The governor of Funing County stared at Xiao Yan'an's back and stood there in a daze.

The news he received was that the emperor only asked Xiao Yan'an to deliver the supplies, right? He didn't give Xiao Yan'an any other power, so he asked him to investigate corruption, right?
