Chapter 23 Buying People's Hearts

In Jixiang Inn, Lin Jingyu was leaning on the bed, covered with a brocade silk quilt.

As a concubine of the royal palace, even the inn where she stayed temporarily was decorated from the inside out.

Except for being smaller in size, the inns in this small town are not much different from those in the wealthy houses in the capital.

But Lin Jingyu, who was enjoying the glory and wealth, had a blank face at the moment, which made the maid who was serving him very worried.

If Lin Jingyu is up to no good, these maids who serve her personally will never end well in the end.

"Your Majesty... have some porridge, this is specially prepared for you by Dianshan!" The maid squatted beside the bed, stirring the meat porridge in the white porcelain bowl with a spoon.

Lin Jingyu turned away and said in a weak voice: "I just drank the medicine, so I can drink the porridge... take it down!"

At this moment, not only did she not want to eat, she didn't even want to see outsiders. She just wanted to be alone and quiet.

So Zhao Yanxun, who came to visit just now, was driven away by Lin Jingyu because he felt unwell.

"Your Majesty, just take one bite! Just one bite!" the maid said as if coaxing a child.

"Yun'er, I told you not to eat!" Lin Jingyu's voice had a hint of sullenness.

Her temperament has always been excellent, but this situation is really rare now.

At this moment, a hearty voice came from outside the door: "Who made Sister Lin angry?"

Identifying people by listening to sounds... Everyone in the room knew that the person coming was Lady Rong.

Sure enough, after the words fell, Huang Rongrong walked in from outside the room with her personal maid Lan'er.

The maids serving in the room quickly saluted, and the maid holding the meat porridge even complained: "Ms. Rong, it's my fault!"

Huang Rongrong walked to the bedside, took the white porcelain bowl from the maid's hand, and waved the maid back.

I saw Huang Rongrong stirring the meat porridge and saying at the same time: "Sister Lin, I just met the prince outside. He said that he has sent someone to find a doctor for you!"

"I heard that he is a famous local miracle doctor. I think it won't be long before my sister's illness is cured by the medicine!"

The words were still the same, but coming from the mouth of the innocent Huang Rongrong, they had a different appeal.

At least Lin Jingyu showed a smile, and then said helplessly: "I have never been in good health. The imperial doctors can't do anything about it, and it's even harder for doctors in small places to say!"

Huang Rongrong smiled and said: "Sister Lin, don't worry, as long as you eat well, you will always get better!"

Having said this, Huang Rongrong handed the spoon to Lin Jingyu's mouth.

Seeing the expectant look on Huang Rongrong's face, Lin Jingyu couldn't bear to refuse, so she could only open her mouth and let Huang Rongrong feed her.

"That's right...have another bite!" Huang Rongrong was so happy.

Her relationship with Lin Jingyu is better, so Huang Rongrong sincerely hopes that Lin Jingyu can recover as soon as possible.

After all, there were not many people in the palace that Huang Rongrong could speak to.

…………

Outside the inn, accompanied by guards, Zhao Yanxun strolled on the street.

The rain finally stopped, so he thought of going out for a walk.

"Wang Zong...how old is your son?" Zhao Yanxun asked casually.

And the Wang Zong he spoke of was a man wearing the official uniform of a hundred households.

This man has a strong body and a scar on his face, which was left when he went out to fight.

Although Wang Zong was not angry or assertive on the outside, he was extremely docile in front of Zhao Yanxun at this moment.

"Your Highness, it's already six months old!"

"The six-month-old child is wandering around with us, so we have to take good care of him!"

At this point, Zhao Yanxun stopped and said: "Ask your wife to go to the dining room and get some chicken, duck, and fish to feed yourself. Only when you eat well can you breastfeed the baby!"

His words were so caring that Wang Zong was so moved that he quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

He is an honest man. It is precisely because of this that Zhao Yanxun used his family as a breakthrough to buy Wang Zong's loyalty.

This time, the emperor assigned Zhao Yanxun four hundred guards, so he now has four hundred households under his command.

Except for honest people like Wang Zong, the other three had to use coercion and inducement to keep them loyal.

Thinking of winning people's hearts and following through to the end, Zhao Yanxun said to the guards around him: "You too, now that you have entered my palace, if you have any difficulties at home in the future, you can come to me!"

No matter what difficulties he has in the future, no matter whether he can solve them in the future, the business is to get everyone to focus first.

Realizing the importance of people's hearts, Zhao Yanxun will try his best to do his best.

Although there is a system in place, this broken system has no other functions besides increasing the force value, which is not enough to give Zhao Yanxun absolute peace of mind.

What's more, now he is also a man with a family. In addition to protecting his own safety, he also has to protect the princesses as much as possible.

Therefore, the more people respect him, the more strength he can muster when the end of the world comes, and the more hope that others will survive.

The guards were grateful to Zhao Yanxun, which made him very satisfied.

But today is just a small test. In the future, he will pay special attention to this aspect.

"Everyone, get up. Today the king has given an order for Chief Shi to distribute food and meat. Let's go... let's go and see the situation together!"

Zhao Yanxun acted approachable, but the people below him were still frightened and treated him more respectfully.

The palace was stationed in Changfu Town, but only key institutions and property were placed in the middle of the town.

The rest of the entourage were distributed around the outside of the town and stayed in surrounding residential buildings.

Zhao Yanxun's kindness to me was just a matter of words to him, but to those who implemented it, it was a very cumbersome project.

The two chief historians of the palace, Guan Hetai, are in charge of the general affairs of the palace, and he is in charge of the population, finance and taxation.

At this moment, Guan Hetai is in the temporary warehouse, supervising the people below to move the goods.

Distributing things to two to three thousand people is an extremely complicated matter, but Guan Hetai did it in an orderly manner, which made Zhao Yanxun certain of his ability.

Along the way, when the royal family members saw Zhao Yanxun, they all expressed their gratitude, which made Zhao Yanxun feel more and more comfortable.

Staying here for a while is really not a bad thing... Zhao Yanxun thought to himself.

"Your Highness, why are you here in person? This place is a mess!"

Seeing Zhao Yanxun's arrival, Guan Hetai greeted him eagerly, making Zhao Yanxun feel a little nauseous.

In Guan Hetai, Zhao Yanxun did not see the aloofness of the officials in the capital, and it was easy to use such people.

On the other hand, another chief historian, Zhou Chengping, kept a straight face most of the time, as if the whole world owed him money.

"Guan Qing, are the things distributed enough?" Zhao Yanxun smiled.

"Your Highness, the food is not bad, but there is a gap in the meat, but I have ordered people to go to Fucheng to buy it!" Guan Hetai bowed and replied.

"I can rest assured that you are doing things!" Zhao Yanxun patted Guan Hetai on the shoulder.

"Your Majesty is considerate of his subordinates, which is a blessing to us!"

Guan Hetai's words are not false. A prince who is considerate to his subordinates is definitely easier to serve than one who behaves recklessly.

Next, after chatting with Guan Hetai for a while, Zhao Yanxun received the news that Huo An had brought the miracle doctor back.

Zhao Yanxun has always been concerned about Lin Jingyu's condition, after all, she is his woman.

So after receiving the news, Zhao Yanxun took people back. He also wanted to meet this miracle doctor.

If the other party was really capable, he wouldn't mind leaving the Divine Doctor Wang behind and taking him to the fief together.

In these last days, a good doctor is definitely a valuable asset.
