A five-year-old goddess, raised to become an emperor for all time through a bronze mirror.

Chapter 184 The Magical Hand Warmer...

At that moment, the people who had been keeping their doors tightly shut and huddled in their homes came out of their houses and gathered in the center of the square.

Some of them wore coarse cloth clothes, while others were covered in patches, but everyone's steps seemed somewhat hurried...

The crowd gradually gathered, whispering and discussing among themselves.

Some people craned their necks, trying hard to see clearly what was happening in front of them;

Some people clung tightly to the sleeves of those around them, asking for news with a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

Each face was filled with expressions of curiosity and anticipation.

"Who is it? Why are they suddenly saying they're sending us something?" an elderly man with a wrinkled face asked in confusion.

Someone nearby immediately chimed in, "Yes, that's really strange! Could it be the Emperor? After all, who else but the Emperor would have the audacity to do something so grand?"

However, another person curled their lip in disdain and said:

"Tch, the Emperor? Don't even dream about it! I heard he only knows how to eat, drink, and be merry all day long. He's long since left all the affairs of state and the well-being of the people to those princes..."

As soon as he said that, a chorus of agreement immediately arose from the surrounding crowd.

"Yes, yes, yes! I think I just saw the Sixth Prince! Maybe he's the one who came to distribute the supplies to us!" a sharp-eyed young man exclaimed excitedly.

As a result, speculation about the identity of the person distributing the items spread more and more among the crowd, and the anticipation in everyone's hearts grew higher and higher.

At that moment, everyone's eyes turned to the distance.

There stood Pei Yunjing, riding a tall, powerful, and jet-black steed, as striking as lightning in the night.

Behind him followed a group of dashing and spirited subordinates, also riding fine horses, slowly advancing in unison.

The crisp, resounding sound of horses' hooves echoed throughout the wide street like war drums.

The sound not only echoed in the air, but also deeply stirred the hearts of everyone present.

Pei Yunjing gently pulled on the reins, and the well-trained horse immediately stopped moving forward.

Immediately afterwards, he leaped off the horse with agility, the whole movement as natural and smooth as flowing water, without the slightest hesitation or delay, all done in one go.

After gaining a firm footing, Pei Yunjing smiled gently and addressed the surrounding people:

"Dear fellow villagers, please keep order and line up in order. Everyone and every household will receive enough supplies to keep warm during this cold weather."

And these supplies were all provided by Princess Nian Nian of our Prince Pei's Mansion..."

He paused slightly at this point, a hint of tenderness and gratitude in his eyes.

Pei Yunjing knew that the distribution of supplies was of great significance to the people, but he was unwilling to take all the credit for himself.

Even though Niannian isn't here right now, he still hopes that through his words and actions, the people will remember her kindness.

Hearing Pei Yunjing's words, the people present were all deeply moved.

They all wanted to kneel down to express their gratitude, but before their knees could even touch the ground, Pei Yunjing, quick-witted and agile, stopped them.

He quickly gestured for everyone to stand up and said loudly, "Please rise, everyone. There's no need for such a grand gesture! Princess Nian Nian's intention is simply for everyone to take care of their own lives and get through the extreme cold weather safely."

Therefore, the greatest reward for her is simply for everyone to live a warm and comfortable life!

As soon as he finished speaking, he methodically directed his men to begin distributing the supplies.

Pei Yunjing did not stop. He turned around and took box after box of supplies from his subordinates, handing them to each and every civilian who came forward.

He not only carefully distributed the items, but also patiently explained to everyone the specific usage of each item and the points to note.

Pei Yunjing's face was ashen as he slowly bent down and picked up a delicate first-aid kit.

His gaze swept over the crowd, and he spoke calmly:

"Please take a look, everyone. This is a first aid kit. I'm sure you are all familiar with this item, so I won't go into detail about its uses and components."

After a brief pause, he continued, "However, three new items have been added to this first-aid kit. One of them is this frostbite cream, specifically designed to combat frostbite caused by severe cold weather;

Secondly, there's this thermometer, which helps us accurately measure body temperature; and finally, there are fever-reducing patches, which have a significant relieving effect on fever symptoms.

As for how to use them specifically, detailed instructions are included in the first aid kit; please refer to them yourself.

At this point, Pei Yunjing couldn't help but recall the rampant malaria epidemic that had ravaged the country five years ago.

At that time, malaria was spreading rapidly, and countless lives were suffering. The first aid kits distributed to the people were sent by Ni Ni when he was in Zhongyuan City.

Although five years have passed, the scene from that time is still vivid in my mind.

Although the people had the opportunity to come into contact with such first aid equipment five years ago, they still couldn't suppress their curiosity when faced with these brand-new and strange gadgets.

Just then, everyone was surprised to see Pei Yunjing take out one small, brightly colored hand warmers after another from a cardboard box next to him.

With a smile on his face, Pei Yunjing personally stepped forward, opened each of the hand warmers, and carefully handed them to the people.

The people took the hand warmers and examined them curiously.

It was covered with various adorable cartoon designs, some featuring cute little bears, others lively and playful little rabbits, each one so lifelike that it was irresistible.

However, despite the attractive appearance of hand warmers, most people are still completely unaware of their uses.

At this moment, Gou Dan finally couldn't contain his curiosity, leaned out, waved vigorously at Pei Yun Jing, and shouted loudly:

"Sixth Prince, this thing looks strange. Why is it so sticky to the touch? Do we have to stick our mouths on it so we can eat less food?"

His words were like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples.

The people around were stunned at first, then burst into laughter; the laughter rose and fell, echoing throughout the streets and alleys.

Some people laughed so hard they were doubled over; a few others joined in the jeering, echoing the sentiments:

"Yeah, yeah, are you really going to stick them on your lips?"

Faced with everyone's questions and teasing, Pei Yunjing was not angry. Instead, he gently shook his head, signaling everyone to quiet down.

He said in a gentle and patient tone, "Gentlemen, please be patient and wait a little longer to find out the outcome."
