In her heart, she laughed coldly, showing no expression, and said with a smile, "To save the people, we must consider measures that come afterward. Firstly, register the people in need of aid, ensuring that King Lycan's mercy can be verified for each individual. They primarily focus on widowed, sick, and disabled individuals who require urgent assistance. This prevents any bidding wars or unequal distribution. Secondly, implement incentivized division. Wealthy families would provide aid to people in need without charging money or selling food at reduced prices to them. Those who successfully aid the people would receive rewards, including their children.Conversely, the wealthy who don't participate in incentivized division should face penalties. Thirdly, establish porridge mills. Set up places to cook porridge in all neighborhoods, implementing a system where porridge is distributed to those in need. This is also a consistent measure favored by the court. However, officials tend not
Beta Henry's frustration and anger intertwined, "Emma! You came up with this plan. Now that something has happened, you must take responsibility to the end!"Emma's radiant smile grew even more beautiful, "Based on what?"Beta Henry was so angry he couldn't find words to respond."Because I didn't grow up by your side, Father. Therefore, thanks to your affection, my efforts have been shifted to my beloved elder sister. When something happens, do you expect me to handle it?" She emphasized each word, making her question crystal clear."Emma! How dare you speak to me like this! I am your father!" Beta Henry spoke in anger.Emma looked at him without a trace of resentment on her face, "Indeed, Father. What would you have me do?"Beta Henry couldn't help but take a step forward, his anger growing, "Of course, you should come up with a solution!""Father, I'm a country girl who grew up in a village. How could I possibly think of a solution?" Emma's voice was soft and gentle, sounding like
The Madam wore a red outer robe woven with golden threads embroidered with a miniature lion on her chest. The collar was adorned with delicate floral patterns made from gold and silver threads. Her entire presence radiated a radiant glow as if she was illuminated.Emma bowed her head, fixedly gazing at a rectangular piece of white jade measuring three feet long on the ground, not blinking her eyes. She kneeled by the protocol, paying her respects to the Madam.At this moment, the entire hall was quiet, so much so that the sound of a dress brushing against the ground was distinctly audible."Who is Emma?" The Queen, with an elegant demeanor, spoke slowly and kindly.Emma took a deep breath and stepped forward, executing the grand ceremony. She replied, "May the Queen enjoy safety and peace, and may prosperity and longevity be with Her Majesty."The Queen's gaze rested on her, and she smiled gently, "Raise your head so I can see."Emma lifted her head, her gaze respectful, her actions b
"Initially, my father's people couldn't uncover anything because the disaster-stricken populace fundamentally refused to speak, showing an attitude of resistance. Later, the goddess proposed that my father send people in disguise. Pretending to be rebels, they managed to infiltrate the crowd. Of course, gaining their trust required considerable effort...""You—" King Lycan was almost speechless."The fourth measure, as suggested by my elder sister, involves tax reduction. King Lycan issued orders to exempt taxes and even sent people to console and inquire about the disaster area. This was originally a good way to calm the people. However, after the disaster, some local officials still increased taxes on the people. By the time news of the tax exemption reached the disaster area, the tax collection was almost complete. Your Majesty, these actions not only profited the officials but made it appear that the people were benefiting from it. Your kindness to the people was empty when the tr
Regardless, Luna Sandra was a composed and steady person. After the conferment ceremony, she had her attendants help the senior Madam to her room and bring out the silver to thank the palace officials for the imperial edict.Felicia's face turned pale, and Claire from the second courtyard enjoyed Felicia's discomfort. She purposely approached her and asked, "Elder sister, what's wrong with your complexion?"Felicia remained silent, her fists clenched tightly, her nails digging into her palms until they bled.Luna Sandra's voice remained gentle and composed as she spoke, "Claire, elder sister, is feeling a little under the weather. It's good that you care, but you must be cautious about transmitting colds. Now that the imperial edict has been received return to your quarters and rest."Claire pouted and helped the second madam back to her room.Omega Lanka suddenly found her daughter shielding her, and tears filled her eyes with joy. However, she refrained from showing her happiness be
"Once you've taken a wrong step, you can't make another mistake. Tonight's banquet has many important guests celebrating Emma's elevation to the princess. If you don't attend, will you let her have all the attention from now on?" Luna Sandra's voice carried a hint of bitterness."Mother!" Felicia moved her knees closer to Luna Sandra. "Mother, your daughter knows her mistake!"Luna Sandra looked at Felicia, tears still glistening in her eyes. She sighed and lowered herself, wiping the tears from Felicia's face. "I know. You might feel embarrassed, but whether inside or outside, you have to swallow your grievances for stability's sake! No matter how intelligent Emma is, as long as you step out, no one will pay her any attention!"Although Felicia's tears weren't dry yet, her demeanor began to calm down.Suddenly, she understood Luna Sandra's intention.Outside, the common folk might praise Emma, but so what? As long as she possessed incomparable beauty, maintained her Father's support,
People initially thought they would see a rustic servant ignorant of gestures and actions, perhaps even causing a commotion. However, they were surprised to see a beautiful and graceful young lady, so the stark contrast melted away the elegance and beauty of Felicia, shifting everyone's attention to Emma.Regardless, this third daughter was genuinely legendary. Initially, She was not favored and sent to the countryside, but after returning, she stood firmly within the Seldom clan. She even earned the title of a princess through the recognition of King Lycan. This was a rare occurrence in the history of the Blue Moon pack, a feat almost unheard of since its foundation – a true miracle!Facing everyone's curious or admiring gazes, Emma maintained a gentle and elegant demeanor, capturing Alpha Jeffn's unwavering attention as he entered the room. Emma was indeed a brave servant girl. Her words from earlier demonstrated that. But the moment she stepped into the banquet, she transformed int
Seeing everyone's unanimous response, Beta Henry reluctantly nodded and said, "So be it, everyone, let's go."Inside Luna Sandra's heart, she was seething with frustration. She quickly exchanged a glance with Nanny Jane beside her, instructing her to take a step ahead and immediately investigate what was under the plum tree. They had to deal with the unexpected appearance of the body before everyone arrived. However, as Nanny Jane approached the door, she found that everyone was already rushing outside. At that moment, she was detained at the doorway, unable to exit.Emma observed all this and revealed a calm smile.Seventh, Prince Edward noticed this fleeting smile and suddenly grew intrigued, raising an eyebrow. This third young Lady was genuinely mysterious."Seventh Brother, aren't you going to join the commotion?" Alpha Jeffn's voice suddenly interrupted his intense gaze.Edward turned his head and smiled lightly, saying, "Of course, I want to see what's happening as well. Elder
