The natural disaster came so quickly.
The Great Zhou was a blessed place that had once nurtured countless Saints.
This place contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, except for the evil that appeared a thousand years ago. Natural disasters rarely occurred in this country.
But this year seemed to be different.
” How strange. It’s already April. Why is it still snowing? ”
“Many houses collapsed in the commoner district yesterday. The government has sent people to provide relief, but there are still refugees everywhere outside.”
“What’s going on this year? It usually snowed in November, but it basically stopped in February. It was almost spring plowing season in April, but it was still snowing heavily. Why isn’t it stopping?”
Many commoners sat under the eaves, and the old masters sighed as they smoked.
“Is there going to be a disaster?” Each family didn’t have much surplus grain left. How long could they last?
Moreover, if they missed the spring plowing, next year would be a year of famine.
Countless starved to death.
“Before the end of the year, many refugees appeared in the capital. I heard that they all fled from overseas. There was a tsunami near the sea, causing countless casualties and taking away countless lives.”
“There are also places with plagues, locusts passing through, and not a single blade of grass grows. What’s going on in the past two years? Is there going to be a natural disaster in our Great Zhou?”
The commoners discussed animatedly. Many people were so worried that they could not sleep at night.
Fortunately, His Majesty seemed to have been prepared for this. He issued three orders in a day.
Countless amounts of gold and silver were released from the national treasury, temporarily stabilizing the refugees who had suffered from the snow disaster.
However, the situation was still urgent, and the people were worried.
“Tomorrow, let’s pay our respects to the National Guard Temple and the Salvation Palace.”
“Could it be that we angered the gods and caused such a huge disaster?” The people were in fear and trepidation, and such rumors quickly spread.
For a moment, there were many people outside the Nation Protecting Temple and the Salvation Palace, and the incense was flourishing.
The atmosphere in the Jiang family was a little strange.
Lulu would be fifteen years old in three months.
“What did you say? His Majesty asked you to send a handkerchief?” Madam Xia was so shocked that she almost fell off her seat.
Jiang Huaian was dumbfounded. He was still holding a small box in his hand.
A young girl in a white dress with a goddess-like face was taking the small brocade box from her brother.
He pushed it away.
“This is Her Majesty proving her needlework.” Jiang Huaian said faintly.
It was widely rumored that the eldest son of the Jiang family was increasingly valued by the Emperor and was very favored.
After all, the Emperor often let him enter the palace alone.
Only Jiang Huai ‘an knew.
His Majesty had asked him to be a messenger. From time to time, he would embroider a handkerchief and send it back, so that he could be a little more careful from time to time.
Jiang Huaian had a bitter expression on his face, while Lulu pursed his lips and snickered.”His embroidery skills have indeed improved.”
Madam Xia’s heart sank. Seeing the lustful look on her daughter’s face, she knew that the Emperor was probably not just being hot-headed.
Madam Xia coughed lightly.
“Lulu, Mother received a few invitations. Will you accompany Mother to the banquet in the afternoon? Your sister-in-law is only three months pregnant, and her pregnancy is still unstable.” Madam Xia forced a smile.
“Sure, is it the Spring Blessing Banquet?” Lulu had heard about it.
Madam Xia smiled and nodded.
Recently, the world was in turmoil and the people were displaced.
In the court, the Emperor said that the ten thousand taels of silver had temporarily appeased the refugees.
However, there was an endless stream of refugees coming from all directions, and His Majesty called for donations between the various governments.
And those who were in charge of the money of the various manors were all in the hands of the women in the back residence.
Hence, the Spring Blessing Banquet.
