The current disaster situation is serious. If the black-hearted mayor can be replaced, not only can the finances be relieved, but also the people below can be frightened. Magistrate Ouyang will not miss this opportunity.

Master Yu tied up all the people, and some villagers were willing to escort them together. They were taken to the government office overnight to avoid a long night and many dreams.

Maybe he was too confident, or maybe the people above him didn't take it seriously, but no robbery happened.

The gold and silver from the mayor's house will also be sent to the government office, and the food and some cotton clothes that can survive the winter will be handed over to the temporary mayor and distributed to the villages in Quanshui Town.

"Girl, aren't we going back?" After what happened this time, the little girl felt extremely uneasy, fearing that something would happen to Bai Ling, and she would not be able to atone for her sins even if she died.

"Go all the way north, save every one you can."

Bai Ling shook his head, took the handcuff handed to him by the girl, and said softly:

"There is no shortage of sinister people in time, but they are also rare. We do things with a clear conscience. Anyone who dares to mess with us will not let them have an easy time."

The girl stopped talking and silently guarded the small stove, feeling less worried in her heart.

If you follow a capable master, you won't have to worry about your future.

With his own power, there were only a limited number of people he could save. Bai Ling finally remembered the young master's order that was about to become moldy in space, and mobilized the scattered forces in Yaowang Valley to try his best to rescue the suffering villages.

Unlike the previous influx of victims from the south, rescue arrangements can be coordinated, and local villagers can also lend a helping hand.

The snow disaster came suddenly, and the disaster situation in each village was different. Post-disaster reconstruction and plague prevention were the top priorities.

After the snow disaster came, Shangguan Yu issued emergency documents to several prefects, asking them to save the people without leaving any room. Special cases could be dealt with first and then reported.

Therefore, although a large area of ​​Zixiao City was affected by the disaster, the rescue was relatively timely and it had stabilized by the end of February.

Although Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu exchanged letters, they had not met in person because they had to stabilize the situation first.

When Bai Ling returned home, the rice seedlings had been planted and the winter wheat was growing well. It was a prosperous scene.

"Girl, Jingli has come to convey the imperial edict again. Madam asked the slave to help the girl wash and change clothes." The little girl ran into the house with forsythia, but after a few days of rest, her little face became much rounder.

"Come in." Bai Ling knew clearly in his heart that after the emperor learned about Zixiao City, he would definitely not miss her reward.

However, since he is already a princess, the most he can give as a reward is some gold, silver and jewels, but I am afraid that many of them will not be used.

To receive the imperial edict, you need to bathe, change clothes, and set up an incense table in advance. However, no one was sent to notify you in advance this time, so you can only dress neatly to show respect for the Heavenly Family.

She put on her new spring clothes, asked Forsythia to help her pull up her hair, and wore two more rockers than usual. After applying lipstick, Bai Ling didn't allow Forsythia to do anything else.

"Go and receive the order quickly. It takes too long, but it is disrespectful to the Tian family." Seeing that Forsythia wished she could wear all the jewelry in the box, Bai Ling said hurriedly and went to the front yard to receive the order.

.

The dress made for Bai Ling in the embroidery workshop was made according to the measurements taken during the Chinese New Year. It was a bit wide when worn at this time, making Bai Ling look even thinner.

"This servant pays his respects to the princess." The eunuch who delivered the order saw Bai Ling and immediately beat him up.

"My father-in-law has worked hard all the way. After reading the imperial edict, I would like to ask my father-in-law to stay and have a casual meal." Bai Lingxu gave him a hand, but he did not dare to show off in front of these people in the palace.

Anyone who can be a eunuch who delivers edicts has someone behind him.

Although it is very hard to travel long distances to deliver the message, it also represents face and there is money to be made.

"Thank you so much, Commander. I have heard that the food at Yuanwailang's house is very delicious, especially the fruit wine and medicinal wine, which are not easy to buy in the capital." The eunuch said in a high-pitched voice.

"Thanks to my father-in-law's support, I still have a few jars of stock at home. I'll give them to my father-in-law to take with me later so that we can relieve our fatigue on the road." Bai Sanshu cupped his hands aside and said.

"You are so polite, Yuan Wai Lang." The eunuch smiled with satisfaction and thought to himself: This person is from a peasant family and is quite good. It seems that this time he will not run away in vain. "Yuan Wai Lang, please bring your family to accept the order."

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Hereby... I will reward Princess Jixiang with a hundred taels of gold, a thousand taels of silver, ten pieces each of chiffon, tribute brocade, and a hundred pearls... Her mother, Bai Liu, raised her children well, and during the snow disaster

He helped a lot of people, and gave him the eighth grade of the imperial edict, and reward... Although the Bai family siblings are white, they share your worries for the king, and they have a pure heart... reward..."

The imperial edict is very long. Perhaps because of the origin of the Bai family, it was written in a relatively plain language so that people can understand most of it. This time, everyone is rewarded.

"The humble minister, the wife of the minister, the daughter of the minister, I thank you for your kindness. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."

Everyone in the Bai family thanked the emperor for his grace, and then Bai Sanshu stepped forward to receive the imperial edict and enshrine it in the ancestral hall.

After the Bai family became independent, they built a small ancestral hall in the backyard. This was the third time to welcome the imperial edict, so they were familiar with the process.

The family respectfully invited the imperial edict to enter the ancestral hall, but Baicao couldn't help but secretly glance at Yang Fan, who was wearing armor, and happened to meet his eyes.

This time Yang Fan came as an escort for the imperial edict, so he could not meet with the Bai family, nor could he talk to Baicao at this moment.

Baicao's pretty face blushed, but Yang Fan quietly raised the corners of his lips. Some words don't need words, a look is enough.

After entertaining the group of people who delivered the message, and giving them gifts and red envelopes, they were sent away. Yang Fan also needed to escort the group to the county government office in order to complete the task.

After all, Yang Fan came to Nanshan Village this time to ask for Baicao's hand in marriage, and finally formally gave the betrothal gift before he could welcome the bride.

"All the rewards given to me by the palace should be added to the eldest sister's dowry. In the future, the eldest sister will live in the capital, and these things will increase the value of her life." Bai Ling said generously.

The wedding was in February, but luckily the date was not delayed due to disaster relief.

"Mother's share, give it to your sisters." As a mother, Bai Liu couldn't be biased.

"I picked two pieces of fabric that suited my eldest sister, and I kept the rest for myself. I was afraid that my eldest sister would be embarrassed to take them," Bai Wei joked.

Bai Xing also expressed her intention to add makeup to her eldest sister.

"My money is the same as my mother's. I will share it equally among my sisters." Bai Xiaoshan was not to be outdone.

"Okay, eldest sister, keep it all."

Bai Cao's eyes were red with emotion again, but she took Bai Ling's hand and said:

"I know what the second sister wants, but it's not good for you to give me all the royal rewards. I have no shortage of gold and silver. You can keep those for yourself. The eldest sister is shameless and chooses by herself. I am interested in a few pieces of your fabrics.

Now, just give me a set of jewelry for my eldest sister."

Bai Ling didn't think much about it, but her family's arrangements also made her understand that she had to take care of her other sisters.

"Okay, let's write a new dowry list quickly. We have to go to the government to register it before the eldest brother-in-law comes to welcome the bride." Bai Ling nodded.

"Although this is not the first time our family has received an imperial edict, we still have to set up flowing water mats for a few days. But Cao'er is getting married in the next two days, what should we do?" Bai Sanshu asked, scratching his head.

"The flowing water mat has to be set up in the front yard of our house. I will let my aunt and sixth aunt take care of it later. We can't save it. When my eldest sister gets married, she should have put the flowing water mat for three days. We can't be wronged. We are all together.

Just leave it for five days."

Bai Ling thought for a moment and said.
