Soon, Chu Xuanchen brought Yun Ruoyue to the main street of the imperial city in a carriage.
He found out that Madam of Wei was currently giving out porridge at the largest porridge stall in the city, so he ordered the coachman to drive directly to the stall.
However, when they arrived at the porridge stall, they suddenly heard the sound of bowls being smashed and cursed.
Chu Xuanchen lifted the curtain and saw the disaster victims surrounding the porridge stall, smashing their bowls to the ground.
They even rolled up their sleeves and cursed angrily.
Meanwhile, Madam of Wei was wearing gorgeous clothes and expensive jewelry. She was standing high up on the viewing platform, looking at everything below in a panic.
She looked at the people who were causing trouble below and hurriedly asked the maidservant beside her, "What's wrong? Why are the people below all angry? Where's Gao Yang? Quickly call Gao Yang over. "
"Madam, I don't know where Gao Yang went. Wait a moment, I'll go find him now." The maidservant hurriedly left the platform after saying that.
Madam of Wei had just arrived and was watching the chefs give out porridge. She wanted to show her kindness, but she didn't expect the disaster victims to cause a ruckus.
At this moment, the noise below was getting louder and louder!
"This porridge is full of sand. Is this for humans to drink? Madam of Wei, you said that you're providing disaster relief for everyone. Why is there more sand in this porridge than yesterday? "
"That's right! Giving us, the people, to eat sand. What kind of disaster relief is this? "
"My bowl is full of worms. There are more worms than porridge. Can this be drunk? I might as well gnaw on tree bark and grass roots! "
"Madam of Wei, this is the porridge you're giving to the empress. Is this how the empress deceives us? If you don't believe it, come and take a look! This porridge is smelly and rotten. Even animals don't drink it, but they're giving it to humans! "
"This steamed bun is also rotten. It smells foul. It's not edible at all!"
"Yesterday, my grandson ate one of her steamed buns and vomited and had diarrhea. He had abdominal pain for a day. My grandson is still so young. How can he withstand this kind of torture? Madam of Wei, you have to give us an explanation. Go and ask Her Majesty if she really cares about the people. Why would she let us eat this kind of thing? "
Hearing everyone's questions, Madam Wei finally realized what had happened.
She hurriedly walked down from the high platform and hurriedly walked to the stove. She looked into the pot and saw that it was filled with yellow porridge mixed with sand.
There was even a thick layer of worms floating on top of the yellow porridge. She immediately glared at Chef beside her. "What's going on? Why is there sand in the porridge? "
The chef trembled with fear. "Madam, the rice that Lord Gao bought was like this. We have no choice but to use this rice to make porridge. "
"What? Don't you know how to wash it before cooking it? "Madam Wei's face was as black as an iron pot.
She asked Gao Yang to do something for her, but Gao Yang actually did it like this. If the Empress knew about this, it would be troublesome!
The chef said, "Madam, there's too much sand. There are also many disaster victims today. They are all clamoring for porridge. We didn't have time to wash the rice, so we directly put it in the pot! "
Another female chef said, "Madam, it's not our fault. Yesterday, when there were fewer people, we all washed the rice and washed out most of the sand, so no one caused trouble yesterday. But today, there were too many disaster victims who came because they heard the news. Lord Gao ordered us to quickly cook the porridge, otherwise, our wages would be deducted. We didn't have time to wash the rice, so we directly put it in the pot to cook! "
