Chapter 263 The Ox Cart That Attracted Onlookers

Emperor Sheng knew this very well.

It was because he knew it that he was so angry.

Some people with bad intentions, for their own benefit, disregard the lives of tens of thousands of disaster victims.

"This matter must be thoroughly investigated!"

He tapped the armrest of his chair with his fingers, having already made a decision. "Zhong Ling, pass on my decree. Wherever disaster relief supplies are looted, all officials will be dismissed!"

"In addition, General Zhuo Ren will lead an army of 100,000 to investigate and investigate the looting of disaster relief supplies in various locations."

"I grant General Zhuo Ren the power to execute first and report later."

Zhong Ling quickly accepted the order.

He knew better than anyone that the emperor was really angry this time.

Those who dare to touch the relief supplies are like plucking hair from a tiger's head.

How could the emperor, who has always loved his people like his own children, tolerate such a thing?

When Emperor Sheng's decrees came down, they caused an uproar in Rongdu.

"These people, worse than animals, actually dared to rob disaster relief supplies. They truly deserve to die."

"Your Majesty is still too kind. If it were me, I would have cut these people into pieces."

"Without disaster relief supplies, how can the victims survive?"

Upon learning of this, Zheng Xingguang packed his bags in the shortest possible time and rushed to Xingzi Village.

But he was stopped by Prince Rui and his wife.

"Son, it's freezing outside and you're so young, it's really not appropriate for you to go to Xingzi Village."

"Xingguang, how about this? When the weather gets warmer, Dad will send someone to take you to Xingzi Village?"

Zheng Xingguang said calmly, "Even if the weather gets warmer, you won't let me leave."

"Before, you didn't care much about me. Now, you control me in every way, even wanting to know what I do in a day."

"I really hate your behavior."

Prince Rui and his wife were struck by lightning. They never imagined that their concern for their son would be rewarded with his dislike.

"Xingguang, your father and I are doing this for your own good," Princess Rui said tearfully, "We're worried something might happen to you again, so we're doing this."

Zheng Xingguang scoffed, his behavior unbecoming of an almost six-year-old. "No, you're not worried about me getting into trouble again. You're worried about what will happen to your reputation if something happens again."

"If you really cared about me, you wouldn't treat me like a prisoner."

Prince Rui and Princess Rui looked at each other, both of them not knowing how to get along with their son.

They really didn't treat Xingguang as a prisoner.

They would do this to make up for their debt to him and to ease their relationship with him.

Zheng Xingguang didn't care what the couple thought.

He walked straight past the couple and left with his entourage and secret guards.

Princess Rui wanted to stop her son again.

King Rui stopped him with his hand: "Don't you see it yet?"

"There's a deep rift and misunderstanding between Xingguang and us. The more we act like this, the angrier he gets."

Princess Rui wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her embroidered handkerchief, and said anxiously, "Your Highness, what do you think we should do?"

"We can't really let Xingguang go to Xingzi Village. It's freezing outside, and there are bad guys trying to steal the disaster relief supplies."

Prince Rui sighed, "I'm afraid this matter cannot be resolved."

"Xingguang has wanted to go to Xingzi Village for a long time, but he didn't leave because the road was blocked by heavy snow."

"In this way, I will arrange more people to protect Xingguang, and the problem should not be too serious."

Princess Rui couldn't rest easy. She regretted deeply, "I should have cared more about Xingguang these past few years, and not just been so focused on matters at home and outside."

In fact, all children in large families are like this, taken care of by wet nurses and servants, while the adults are busy with all kinds of things.

Prince Rui also felt regretful. He consoled him, "Xingguang is still young. Let's spend more time with him in the future. Perhaps his relationship with us will improve."

Princess Rui understood that this was the only way now, because she had shown too little concern for her son in the past few days.

"Your Majesty, please arrange for more skilled personnel. I am worried about Xingguang's safety."

Prince Rui agreed without hesitation. No matter what, he would send someone to protect Xingguang this time.

……

Time moves forward.

Mu Baobao and Doctor Deng returned to Xingzi Village in an ox cart, attracting the attention and envy of countless villagers.

"The Mu family is living such a good life. First they built a new house, and now they bought an ox cart. It's really enviable."

"Look at this cow. Whether it's its fur or other aspects, it's top-notch. If I had a cow like this, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"You'll never have such a good thing in your dreams. But I really envy the Mu family for having such a good life."

Mu Laodie and others also walked around the ox cart, touching the ox from time to time.

"This cow is so beautiful. This is the first time I have seen such a beautiful cow."

"This cow's hooves are very good and look strong. They are perfect for plowing the land."

Mu Baobao took Zhu's hand and took credit with a smile, "Grandma, this is my choice, it's my choice."

Zhu touched her head and praised, "Baby is great!"

"With such a powerful cow, farming at home in the spring will be much easier."

Baby Wood hummed happily, "Grandma, we can put a stove in this carriage. It will be very warm, just like Master's carriage."

Zhu made an appropriately exaggerated expression, "It's so warm?"

"That's great. Your father and his family won't have to worry about the cold when they go into town to do business."

Mu Baobao nodded, "Grandma, that's what I think."

Having said that, she gestured for Zhu to lower her head.

Zhu lowered her head and asked, "Baby, what do you want to say to grandma in secret?"

Mu Baobao covered his lips with his little hand and whispered, "Grandma, the money for the ox cart was given by Master. It was ten taels of silver in total."

When Zhu heard this, she understood what she meant. "Don't worry, baby. I'll give the money to Doctor Deng later."

Mu Baobao was relieved now, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter. "Grandma, I also ate a candy man in town..."

She chattered about what she had seen and heard in the town and what she had eaten. "Grandma, I brought you a lot of delicious food. It was all paid for by my master."

"I plan to return all the money to Master when I make some money in the future."

"I can't waste Master's money."

Zhu was very pleased, "Baby did the right thing."

"Even if you are Doctor Deng's apprentice, you can't waste his money. You should be filial to him, understand?"

Mu Baobao said, "Grandma, I'll remember this."

Zhu continued to instruct, "Baby, when you go out in the future, I'll give you some money, but try not to use Doctor Deng's money, okay?"

Mu Baobao agreed obediently.

She suddenly remembered something and asked quietly, "Grandma, it's so cold in the mountains, are the animals okay?"

Zhu comforted her, "Don't worry, baby."

"Your second uncle and his family went to the mountains yesterday and checked. The animals there are fine."
