Seeing the young man in white who suddenly came in, Qiu Yuan looked happy and said: "Young Master, you are here!"
Yun Yan pushed Mu Zhaoyang aside and handed the jade pendant he took from her to the lady who bought it in the first place. She said calmly: "I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
The woman stared blankly at the man in front of her, stunned, quickly thanked her, glanced at Mu Zhaoyang, and quickly walked out of Linglong Pavilion.
Mu Zhaoyang stood firm and rubbed her wrists. Damn it, why do people come out to mess with her every time? She watched the woman leave with the jade pendant and immediately shouted: "That's my jade pendant, okay.
You Linglong Pavilion are so audacious, you dare to steal my princess’s things.”
At this time, Yun Yan turned around, looked at Mu Zhaoyang, shook his folding fan, and said calmly: "That girl originally took a fancy to this thing, and it was sold by me, Linglong Pavilion, so how can we say it is
Did we steal your stuff?"
Mu Zhaoyang originally wanted to refute, but when she saw the gleam of snow-white in front of her, that flawless handsome face, and listened to the gentle voice, she was stunned for a moment. She pursed her lips, and a look of confusion appeared on her face.
A hint of wonder.
Glancing at Mu Zhaoyang, she had seen her temper before and was too lazy to argue with her. "If the princess likes the jade from Linglong Pavilion, let her choose as she pleases." Yun Yan said to Qiu Yuan and went directly to her.
Walk towards the cabinet.
"Yes." Qiu Yuan nodded. She glanced at Mu Zhaoyang and said displeasedly: "Take your pick."
After coming back to his senses, Mu Zhaoyang raised his eyebrows and said: "How can these things get into the eyes of this princess? Well, I will spare you this time. I will come again." After saying that, she went out happily,
Don't forget to look back at the place where the white shadow disappeared.
Who wants her to come again? Qiu Yuan glared angrily.
Inside the cabinet, Xia Ge and Qiu Yuan were standing at the bottom, and Yun Yan was sitting at the top. She took a sip of tea and said, "What's going on over there in Xiangcheng? Is there any letter from Chun Qiao?"
"Chunqiao did have a letter yesterday. We originally planned to ask Bishui to convey it to you, but we didn't expect you to come in person." Xia Ge followed the words and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Yun Yan's hand.
Yun Yan took the letter and opened it to read, her eyebrows gradually knitted together. Seeing her like this, Xia Ge and Qiu Yuan were also worried.
"The victims of the disaster in Xiangcheng went crazy. They even rushed to the yard where Chunqiao lived to grab things. Fortunately, Chunqiao was fine, and the riot there was calmed down by the secret guards. But the court had not allocated relief funds.
Has the money gone? Why is it still such a miserable situation? Those victims are almost to the point of cannibalism." Xia Ge sighed.
"That money must have been embezzled by those corrupt officials. They are really villains who don't care about other people's lives!" Qiu Yuan spat.
Taking a deep breath, Yun Yan shook his head and said: "No matter how honest a person is without food, he will not be at peace. Xiangcheng is close to the border area, and it is normal for there to be many victims. Let the secret guards protect Chunqiao and the others."
"Then shall we open a warehouse to provide disaster relief?" Xia Ge thought for a while and said.
Hearing this, Yun Yan frowned slightly, remained silent for a moment, and said, "No need for that yet. If you encounter victims who are particularly hungry, just rescue them. You must let those victims flow towards the imperial capital."
"That's what I mean. If we risk too much at this time, I'm worried that the court will use this to ask us to donate food." Xia Ge thought for a while and said.
Shaking his head slightly, Yun Yan looked at Xia Ge with a trace of worry in his eyes, "Do you think the court will let us go if we don't do anything? The rice and grain business of the Helian family in Xiangcheng is well-known throughout the East Yue Kingdom. Now it is just
The emperor just thinks he has money and food. When he discovers that the money for disaster relief has been embezzled by corrupt officials, his hands will definitely reach out to us."
"Then what should we do? We can't donate our food to the imperial court in vain! They don't collect less taxes on weekdays, but they shrink back at critical moments." Qiu Yuan said dissatisfied.
Yun Yan waved her hand to stop Qiu Yuan, and said, "You don't have to worry so much now. We'll talk about it later. By the way, has Mu Qingyuan investigated me again recently?"
Xia Ge thought for a while and said: "He didn't do any blatant investigation, but I always felt that there was a pair of eyes watching outside Linglong Pavilion. I think it was the person he sent. Young Master, you have to be careful."
"Don't worry, Mu Qingyuan won't cause me any chaos. Besides, I have an inextricable relationship with him." After a pause, she continued, "How is the investigation of the rumors going?"
Qiu Yuan's face darkened, and she immediately said: "Master, we found out that the rumor came from the palace. The person who spread the rumor was the eunuch next to the Queen Mother. I wonder what she wants to do? She wants to ruin your reputation like this.
!”
"She just wanted me to marry Mu Jingnan. In this case, the last assassination incident was probably related to her. She can stand in the palace for forty years without falling. It seems that her methods are indeed ruthless.
!" Yun Yan's pupils shrank, and there was a hint of coldness in her eyes, "It seems that she doesn't want me to feel better. If I don't marry Mu Qingyuan, I would be sorry for her."
Hearing this, Qiu Yuan and Xia Ge looked at each other. The young master is going to marry Mu Qingyuan?!
Outside the Imperial Study Room, a man in a light yellow brocade robe walked out of the room. What greeted him was a man in a purple brocade robe. He frowned slightly and stopped there.
"Fourth brother, did you just come out of it? Did you explain the details of the assassin case to my father? I really envy my fourth brother for being entrusted with important tasks by my father. I am always reprimanded by my father. What a difference.
Treat it well." Mu Jingnan stepped forward and said with his tongue.
Looking at the smiling man in front of him, Mu Qingyuan felt as if his heart was shaking, but he still held back and forced a smile and said: "Sixth brother, as long as you are willing, sooner or later my father will tell you about the errands."
Shaking his head slightly, Mu Jingnan sighed and said: "If my father really entrusts these important matters to me, how can I be so romantic? So it is most appropriate to leave these matters to my fourth brother."
With a calm smile, Mu Qingyuan said: "Sixth brother is joking. If nothing happens, I will take the first step." After saying that, he raised his steps and walked forward.
As soon as his expression changed, Mu Jingnan put away the smile on his face, glanced at Mu Qingyuan who passed by him, and said leisurely: "Fourth brother is not curious about what happened between me and her that night?"
Mu Qingyuan froze, his eyebrows furrowed and his eyes coldly looking ahead.
"It seems that I have misunderstood." Mu Jingnan chuckled, walked forward, and entered the royal study directly.
After a while, Mu Qingyuan turned around, and that flash of red had long since disappeared. The sound of scolding still came from the imperial study room. He sneered, no matter what happened to them that day, he would never be able to defeat him.
