Calling Linglong Pavilion by name? Yun Yan narrowed her eyes, curled up her lips, and sneered, "He finally showed his fox tail."
Listening to this, Bishui said doubtfully: "Miss, do you know everything?" She had just learned about this matter, and the lady had not gone out that day.
Yunyan stood up from the soft couch. She walked forward to the desk and took out a piece of letter. There were names written densely on it, and even the names of Li Ming and her father appeared. The corner of her mouth raised slightly, "
He is the dignified Fourth Prince, why do you think he wants to win over me? Linglong Pavilion’s financial resources are unparalleled in the world, do you think he will let this opportunity pass?”
"But, miss, I still don't understand?" Bishui looked at the letter in Yunyan's hand and said. She knew what the letter in Yunyan's hand was. It was all lists of merchants in the imperial capital. This was what Qiuyuan had obtained before.
But she didn't know what this had to do with this matter.
Shaking his head slightly, Yun Yan put the letter in his hand on the table and said: "The reason why he wooed me is that he hopes to contribute to the court at this time and further consolidate his power. Think about it, if he can win for the court
If he gets more money, he will be more favored by the emperor, and his status as crown prince will be more stable."
Nodding, Bishui put his little hand on the corner of his mouth and said, "But what should we do now? We can't donate Linglong Pavilion's property for no reason."
"What he said in court today to ask Linglong Pavilion to donate money was just his suggestion. The court will never steal people's money." Yun Yan said coldly, "It's just that he is not someone who fights uncertain battles.
, I don’t know what name he will use to blackmail me and make me obey him." Mu Qingyuan is a terrible person. He has been very thoughtful in dealing with state affairs for many years, which makes her always worried. He is too similar to that person.
.
"Name? What name can he use? If he really dares to rob us, we are not afraid. Our Linglong Pavilion is not a vegetarian." Bishui said angrily.
Really? Yunyan shook her head and said nothing. This incident happened so suddenly that she had to sort it out. The most important thing right now was not to let them know about the relationship between Linglong Pavilion and the Helian family. She didn't want to expose the Helian family to
Also involved.
Outside Linglong Pavilion
At this moment, a man in light yellow brocade clothes was standing outside the door, surrounded by a large group of officials and guards on both sides. Many people looked over. In the corners of the street, there were many more ragged people than usual, and everyone looked up eagerly.
At the door, Qiu Yuan stood there, her eyes full of vigilance, with no intention of inviting them in.
"Fourth Prince, I wonder why you are so elegant and happy to come to our Linglong Pavilion today?" Qiu Yuan twisted her handkerchief and said indifferently, with a coldness in her tone that could repel people thousands of miles away.
Hearing this, Mu Qingyuan smiled calmly and said: "Miss Qiuyuan, we have met once before. I have a good relationship with the Seventh Young Master. I came here today just to catch up with the Seventh Young Master. Why am I here?
, don’t you want to treat me to a cup of tea?”
Are you on good terms with the young master? Hearing this, Qiu Yuan's face became even colder. Last time, his subordinates intended to harm the young master. She sneered and said: "It's a pity that the young master is not in the pavilion today. I'm afraid the fourth prince will let him down."
disappointed."
"Isn't the Seventh Young Master in the Linglong Pavilion? I just met the Seventh Young Master two days ago. He said that he will stay in the Linglong Pavilion in the near future, and if anything happens to me, I can come here to find him." Mu Qingyuan.
Make a thoughtful statement.
Hearing this, Qiu Yuan sneered and said: "How is it possible? Our young master has never been in Linglong Pavilion. How could it be..." At this point, she was stunned for a moment and looked at Mu Qingyuan. Was he trying to trick her?
"It turns out that the Seventh Young Master has never been in Linglong Pavilion. It seems that what the Seventh Young Master said last time was untrue." Mu Qingyuan looked at Qiu Yuan with a smile.
Next to her, Xia Ge grabbed Qiu Yuan and whispered in her ear: "Don't be fooled, he doesn't know where the young master is!"
Qiu Yuan nodded, looked at Mu Qingyuan again and said, "If the fourth prince keeps standing at the door of Linglong Pavilion, I am afraid no one will dare to come to Linglong Pavilion."
Shaking his head slightly, Mu Qingyuan glanced at the growing number of people around him. He smiled and said, "Although the Seventh Young Master is not here, I have important matters to discuss with him, so I will naturally have to wait."
Want to discuss something? Listening to this, Qiu Yuan couldn't help but become anxious. She naturally knew the purpose of Mu Qingyuan's visit today, but now that the young master was away, she couldn't make the decision at all. But in this case, how could they invite him?
The young master is coming over? Mu Qingyuan must have a lot of spies around here, and the young master's identity will most likely be exposed by then.
"Fourth Prince, what on earth do you want to do? Our young master is indeed not here." Xia Ge said from the side. They must calm down at this moment.
An official next to Mu Qingyuan said immediately: "The Emperor has an order. There are currently many people in Liangdu affected by the disaster. We hereby order Linglong Pavilion to support the victims and help the court in disaster relief. Your Linglong Pavilion has not even had a person in charge come out. Could it be that you, Linglong Pavilion, want to resist?"
Doesn’t the purpose come true?”
Hearing this, Xia Ge and Qiu Yuan looked at each other in confusion. Does the imperial court have such a purpose? The young lady is right. It really happened. How could the imperial court let go of such a big steamed bun from Linglong Pavilion?!
Seeing Mu Qingyuan's appearance, Xia Ge and Qiu Yuan were at a loss for a moment.
"Hurry up and hand over the money, otherwise we will have to go in and search, and then your Linglong Pavilion will be sealed up." Another official shouted sternly.
Mu Qingyuan next to him smiled elegantly and said, "Master Qin, how can you talk to these two girls like this? Since they can be in charge of Linglong Pavilion, they must understand all this."
"Understand? I don't understand. When did the emperor make a decree to ask Linglong Pavilion to donate silver? It has reached the point of intimidation!" Outside the crowd, a young master in white walked over quietly. He shook his folding fan lightly and said,
A faint smile appeared on Qingjun's face.
Hearing this voice and looking at the person coming, Xia Ge and Qiu Yuan both looked happy and shouted: "Young Master!"
Looking at that man, Qin Youhe frowned and said coldly: "Of course this morning, who are you? How dare you act so presumptuously in front of the Fourth Prince!"
"You don't even know who I am, so you come to my Linglong Pavilion to act recklessly. I really can't see it. Fourth Prince, you are really capable. You managed to drag my Linglong Pavilion into trouble, but you seem to have forgotten
Who am I? Now that the imperial edict has been issued, please let me have a look at the imperial edict." Yun Yan folded the folding fan and continued to walk forward. He walked to Linglong Pavilion and looked at Mu Qingyuan in front of him coldly.
