C163 inaction

It didn't matter how much the empress listened to him, Zheng Qingluo was excited by her own words. Her small face showed an expression of worry, fear, or happiness.

"At that time, Princess Ning Yuan was also by our side. After listening to our sighs, she had some feelings for us, saying that for people like us, even if we were to be in a critical condition, we could still miss out on a doctor, not to mention those ordinary families."

"Money is nothing. If this happens, even if I find a doctor, I won't be able to get any treatment. It's very pitiful. We can't even say how pitiful it is. We can only say how sad we are and talk about donating money and doing something."

"It's just a few people blindly thinking. I didn't think it would actually work. Thank god for giving us a time, land, people and peace, allowing us to do something for the commoners."

Qingluo's narration was filled with excitement and gratitude. Her voice and manner made it hard for the empress to ascertain whether her words were true or false.

"Tell me about you. How could you forget about such a great fortune? Although it's not easy for me to leave the palace, it's still alright for me to have some snacks."

The empress didn't let Qingluo talk on her own anymore and just let her speak. She didn't know what else she could come up with to deal with her.

"That's good, that's a good thing we can't get even if we burn incense to worship Buddha. Esteemed empress, if you're willing to help, we'd be willing to do so."

"With your identity here, you are still better than us. Our family won't be able to donate much money, with the Empress' contributions, Charity Hall can at least hold on for a few more days."

Qingluo let out a long sigh. It looked like things were really going easy now. The empress couldn't help pressing her forehead. She hadn't even said what she wanted to do when Zheng Qingluo had already circled herself in.

It was impossible not to donate the money. There was no way to listen to the news. Besides, it was not a good idea to donate too much, so the empress felt a headache coming on.

"Qingluo, of course I want to donate some money. Ever since I heard about this, I knew it was a good thing to do for my people. As the mother of my country, how can I not offer you my hand?"

"Violet Vine, pay 10,000 taels of silver. Qingluo, I will donate 10,000 taels of silver first. You can use it in the hall for now. Everyone needs to pay a high price. I will do my best as well."

As soon as the empress finished speaking, Qingluo immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the empress.

"Thank you for your kindness, Queen. You have solved all the difficulties in our Charity Hall. I thank you on behalf of the poor citizens and also on behalf of the Charity Hall. I wish the Empress a thousand years and a thousand years!"

The empress saw Zheng Qingluo kowtowing properly, the veins on her forehead bulging. The gag was stuck up too fast, she couldn't interrupt herself at all.

Seeing the Princess Yi kowtowing to her, the Empress's aching heart suddenly felt at ease. No matter what methods you use, once we reach [Liao], wouldn't you have to obediently kneel down and kowtow to me?

No matter how noisy it was, it could not get into her palms. The empress's heart immediately became calm, and did not let the palace maids support her this time, waiting for Princess Yi to complete the etiquette.

She was about to wake up when she saw that Qingluo had stood up herself. The empress was so depressed that she had just regained her composure and started to tilt again. There was no other reason for it, but she really couldn't do it.

Could it be that she did not wait for him to wake her up, but Princess Yi had done the same thing just now? After doing the same thing, he would definitely do the same.

"Look at how polite you are. You're already a member of your own family, yet you still treat us like strangers." The Queen took a seat at Qingluo's side, and when she raised her head again, it was already a warm and light smile.

"How can that be? Although the empress said that we're sister-in-law, first the nation and then the family. I was just thanking the empress on behalf of the Taishang just now, so of course I had to complete the etiquette."

When Qingluo kowtowed to the empress, she knew that she would be angry, but she had no choice but to do so because she didn't want to be punished to kneel after kowtowing.

He had already thought about it long ago, so he stood up immediately after giving her proper etiquette. He didn't want to give the empress any time to find fault with him, and he thought that she shouldn't threaten him with bad etiquette right now either.

"You also said it, for the sake of the citizens of the Taishang, as the Queen, shouldn't I do it for the people of the Taishang? "It should be right, it actually made you think of the future. This is not right for me."

"It's not me, it's us. How can my own strength support such a Charity Hall?"

"What's more, I'm still young, so my suggestions were all taken by the An Kingdom's Madam Hou and the Ning Yuan Grand Princess. I just helped them a little."

Qing Luo could explain it to her, but the empress would naturally understand what was going on. The empress would even grind her teeth into pieces, she never thought that Princess Yi, at such a young age, would actually be someone who was filled with oil and salt.

"I see that you have also gathered quite a few people. The scale is still sufficient. It seems that a lot of people are here to contribute to the country." The empress's words were full of meaning.

"How many people are there? It's just a small circle that we get to normally, and I don't know most of them. They are all people that Madam Hou and Princess Ning Yuan contact.

"After I married into the Charity Hall, I had some contact with the royalty and the nobility, and not many people had any contact with them. Only my aunt listened to my words, and joined the Charity Hall.

When Qingluo said this, her face was filled with admiration. "Esteemed Empress, is it that you want to say that you can introduce more people to donate to Charity Hall? That would be great."

"When I go back, I'll tell Grand Princess Ning Yuan and Madam Hou An that they'll definitely be happier. Moreover, the people you've recommended will definitely all have noble statuses and be rich and powerful."

I heard from the Grand Princess and the Madam Hou that their early investment had already exceeded our expectations. If you really can help us tie this red thread and get more ladies and ladies to join us, that would be a great honor for us.

After saying all that, Qingluo's small face was filled with longing and anticipation. Her big eyes looked over, unblinking. The empress almost believed that this was real.

"I naturally have to introduce some ladies to donate. They would definitely be willing to participate in a good deed like this, not to mention the fact that they are benefiting the citizens of their country."

"I don't dare to say that I would agree to all of them. I can easily gather a dozen or so people for the Charity Hall." Even if there were only a few people who could enter the Charity Hall, they would be able to find out more or less about the Charity Hall.

"That's great. After the empress has contacted him, please give us a list of names. When the time comes, Madam Hou or Grand Princess Ning Yuan will personally come to collect the donations. This also shows the least of our respect."

Qingluo stood up again and gave a blessing salute. If she could receive more money and perform a little more courtesy, Qingluo would be willing to do so.

"What, you're still here to collect contributions? Aren't you going to the Charity Hall to donate money? After donating the silver, don't you need to volunteer at the Charity Hall? "

This was not what the Queen was thinking, she was thinking of taking advantage of the opportunity to donate her money and place her in philanthropy, so that she could understand the inside story of Charity Hall.

How can we let the ladies go to a place like Charity Hall, where not only are they poor, there are also men and women, and it would be so inconvenient for the ladies and ladies to go there, if they were to bring trouble to that lady or lady, it would be terrible for them.

The empress heard something different, "I heard that all the ladies who had donated money had been to the Charity Hall before. Why are you saying now that it's inconvenient to go there?"

"Qingluo, you're not trying to make things difficult for me. I've already said that we're the closest people to each other. Whoever can be close to us as sister-in-law, they're all outsiders."

"Esteemed empress, look at what you've said. No one would dare to lie to me. If I didn't say that you and I are sister-in-law, then naturally you and I are closer."

"Just based on your status and position, you're the queen of high places. Among all women in the Taishang, you're the first, and you're someone on the same level as the empress dowager. If I deceive you, then I'll just cause myself to feel uncomfortable."

Qingluo swore an oath to the heavens and the earth, leaving the empress at a loss.

"Empress, so the ladies and young ladies who have donated money have indeed been to the Charity Hall." When the empress heard this, her eyes lit up, but with a change in Qingluo's tone, her gaze darkened once more.

"But that was before the Charity Hall opened, and after that, we went there once on the first day. We discovered this problem, and it was too inconvenient.

"Therefore, it won't take long for them to respectively return to their homes. Although we want to save the poor commoners that are going back and forth in the Charity Hall, who knows if they will occasionally go crazy or something."

"If there is any sort of injury to these precious treasures, then it would be against our original intentions. We also cannot bear this responsibility."

The empress had nothing to say to Qingluo's explanation. If this move was no good, then he would use the next one. How could he not compromise so easily?

"Fine, that makes sense. We'll do as you've said. However, I've also heard that you've not only donated money, you've also mobilized people from all over the place. I can also donate some people here."

"Take a look and see what you lack. I can provide you whatever you lack. Even if I don't have that many people, the ladies I introduced will still have suitable people in their homes."
