Demon Lord Gets Married

Chapter 123 - Relief(2)

Teng Yu saw that Yu Xuezhong's attitude towards him was becoming more and more cordial, and he was extremely satisfied.

On the way to the east side of the city, snow-covered houses were lined up in a row, and a simple house in the corner was filled with people.

Looking at this scene of devastation, Teng Yu stopped his steps and said: “It's obviously too late to rebuild the house right now, right?

Yu Xuezhong did not understand the relationship between the two, but he was worried that the Third Prince would finally not be able to hold back from seeking trouble, right?

He nodded with great difficulty and waited for Teng Yu's orders.

“If we leave the street, these brothels will have the most rooms. If we squeeze, we should be able to accommodate thousands of people. If the rooms are not enough, we can put a quilt over their best rooms and make it difficult for everyone.”

This seems to be… That's fine.

Yu Xuezhong and his subordinates looked at each other, a happy expression appearing on their faces. They had not thought of this before, firstly, that place was too dirty, and no one would treat it as a safe place to settle down.

Secondly, even under these circumstances, there was no shortage of men who went to the city to whorehouse. These people were either scholars who did not understand the hardships of the human world, or the hedonistic sons of rich families. None of them were to be offended.

But with the Third Prince's words, there was no need to offend anyone.

Moreover, Rich Lane was indeed a very good place to place them. The ready-made houses were large and spacious, and also had land dragons. This greatly reduced the probability of them dying from the cold, and also reduced the chance of getting some quilts and quilts.

“Yes, this lowly official will have someone take care of this …” “However, how should we settle these free girls?” Yu Xuezhong was once a member of those elegant scholars, so he naturally knew that the women there refused to be taught a lesson.

If he let them mess around, this place would quickly turn into a lecherous nest.

“They're all women with arms and legs, and they usually serve people. They pick the smart ones to help with the wounded and the sick, and the rest stay there. They can't do heavy work, there's always a chance to cook and wash.”

“What?” Yu Xuezhong was dumbstruck when he heard it, letting the brothel girl be his servant? When he thought about how those delicate beauties would wash and cook in the cold wind, Yu Xuezhong could not imagine such a scene.

“I'm afraid they won't agree?” Someone questioned in a low voice.

There are a lot of criminals' daughters in each teaching square. As long as they are a cleanup worker, they will be allowed to leave their low status if they achieve a certain level of achievement, and the rest will be given monthly salaries. Not only them, but some of the victims also began to work hard to clear the snow outside of the city, while some people would be sent to help others in the day, and as long as there is someone who has something to do, they would be given an extra biscuit or a bowl of porridge for every meal.

“Yes, this official will send someone to inform the others.” Yu Xuezhong was completely excited, he felt that he had found his backbone, and things became much lighter.

“Wait a moment, let someone gather all of the rich and powerful people in Hui State City and find a more spacious place. This Highness has something to discuss with them.”

Yu Xuezhong knew that the Third Prince was going to borrow food, so he did not delay in the slightest and asked the few yamen runners to split up to inform him.

“Your Highness, it's already noon. Why don't we go back and have a meal first?” Yu Xuezhong looked at the dark sky and felt empty in his stomach.

Previously, he didn't feel full after eating his fill. But now, he realized that his hunger was worse than anything else. He began to admire those Humble Class students.

“Just now, I saw that a restaurant was still open. I just randomly chose a restaurant to eat.” Teng Yu took the map from Han Qing's hands and glanced at the place he walked through the entire morning. He realized that it would be impossible to complete the entire Hui State today.

Yu Xuezhong also thought that it would be less troublesome, he was only worried that the Third Prince would not be used to eating outside.

Having the servants who were familiar with this area lead the way, the group went to an ordinary looking restaurant. Although the Hui State was affected, the restaurant did not have a business depression, but instead was flourishing even more.

Not all the refugees who had escaped to Hui State were unable to eat or wear clothes; most of them only had their houses collapsed by the heavy snow and had no place to stay.

Thus, the inns in the city had the best business.

Yu Xuezhong was dressed in his official's attire, and the constables around him were also in their uniforms, so when they walked in, all the guests inside stopped to chat.

“Master, you've come. Are you here to eat? “Please sit upstairs.” The shopkeeper clearly recognized the biggest ruler of their Hui State, so he respectfully welcomed them with a bow.

Yu Xuezhong had always been one step behind Teng Yu, so they could immediately tell that the one with the highest identity was Teng Yu.

However, Yu Xuezhong did not want to reveal Third Prince's identity, so he just asked the shopkeeper to make a room to cook for him.

When the guests in the private rooms heard that the Prefect wanted to eat, there was naturally no reason for them not to come out. Especially since Teng Yu very politely made it clear that the money for the meal was on them.

So when the door to the private room closed, the people inside the restaurant started whispering to each other, discussing Teng Yu's identity.

No matter what they said, Yu Xuezhong had already been moved by Teng Yu's noble character. The Third Prince he saw today, was filled with his own people, benevolence, intelligence, wit, and love. It practically gathered all of his expectations for the Bright Monarch.

Yu Xuezhong had interacted with the First Prince a few times and the First Prince's reputation had always been good outside. However, Yu Xuezhong had interacted with him before and felt that the First Prince had become a little arrogant.

However, he did not want to participate in the matters between the princes. He only needed to make sure that the Third Prince would be able to help Hui State out of danger.

The food was served quickly, but the dishes were not rich. The cooking was also very simple. There was a big bowl of steamed buns with white noodles, a bowl of steaming hot beef soup, and some small dishes like scrambled eggs.

However, vegetables only had a plate of fried pickles with fat meat. There definitely wasn't any fresh vegetables to eat. There weren't many vegetables in this season. After being frozen by the snow, all of them died.

The innkeeper personally served a jug of wine and said, “It's cold today, please drink some wine to warm your body. You'll have to use some food, we won't be able to find anything good in this building.”

“Sure, you can leave now. Don't come in without any instructions.” Yu Xuezhong naturally would not make things difficult for the shopkeeper over such a small matter.

Teng Yu had already started to eat. Breaking open a steamed bun, he picked up a few dishes and started to bite on them. After drinking a mouthful of hot beef soup, the taste was still good.

If only the steamed bun was softer.

Not long after Teng Yu left, Yin Xu stood up, ate the breakfast sent by the kitchen, and brought Ding Yi out.

His purpose for coming here was clear, he was here for Wei Zi'an.

Back then, when Wei Zi'an went back to reclaim his family's property, Yin Xu had only given him a few people as well as the protection of the Third Prince. He never thought that in such a short period of time, this person would actually possess Wei Family in his hands.

He didn't seem to be that efficient with his gentle and weak appearance.

Wei Family was the richest person in Hui State City, and it wasn't difficult to find a place, but it was Wei Zi'an that was difficult to find.

When Yin Xu brought his men to the door and knocked on it, the gatekeeper attendant only said that their master had gone out.

There was nothing Yin Xu could do, he could only take out the keepsake that Wei Zi'an had left for him before being invited into the Wei Residence.

The Wei Residence was very big and luxurious. However, there was a hint of desolation in it, especially in this post-snow season.

“Not a single head in the mansion?” Yin Xu asked attendant who was leading the way.

The attendant looked a little dazed, and didn't really answer Yin Xu's question, “Yes, there's only one master in the palace right now.”

After bringing the person into the flower hall, attendant left. Another servant brought some tea up, blessed his body and said, “If the few of you want to meet my master, I'm afraid you will have to wait for a long time.”

Yin Xu waved his hand nonchalantly, “Then we'll wait. But send someone to inform him that this young master is waiting for him at his home, don't let him get busy and not leave home.”

“This… This servant cannot make the decision. ” The maidservant was in a difficult position as she said.

“Then is there no one who can send the message? What about the steward of the estate? “

“The butler is getting old and has a headache a few days ago. He can't get up from his bed and can't be bothered.” The maidservant lowered her head and replied. It was unknown if she regretted it after she finished, but she added, “The housekeeper's health is not good, master has helped him with his hard work, so I won't let him work anymore.”

Yin Xu nodded his head, “Then who is in charge of such a huge mansion?”

“This… This servant doesn't know. ” That servant girl was also strict in her character and did not reveal any useful information.

Yin Xu was not a good person to use violence, after Wei Zi'an came back, everything would be known, but no one was in the hall, it was dark and gloomy.

“Go and cook some more charcoal. Bring some food from the mansion as well.” In any case, his Wei Family was rich, so he didn't need this little bit of food.
