Mingruo felt that her little fairy persona had completely collapsed in front of Fifth Brother, so she could only say hello: "Fifth Brother, have you dealt with everything?"
Yan Zhaobai nodded obediently: "It's taken care of."
The three of them sat down at the round table in the living room. Zisu came in and asked, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the dinner is ready."
"Put the food on the table." Si Haochen ordered.
Mingruo remembered something: "Fifth brother, I need your help with something."
Xiao Jiu'er is now being protected so tightly by Prince Yun that Yan Zhaobai feels that his brother is extraneous. It's rare that Xiao Jiu'er is asked to do something for him, so he must comply: "You said, I will do it for you as a brother."
Mingruo briefly talked about Ji Yue's matter and asked Yan Zhaobai to send someone to get back Ji Yue's body deed from the ship owner. In ancient times, this body deed was equivalent to proof of identity. Without this proof, it would be almost impossible for ordinary people to move forward.
.
However, whether it is Prince Dong Huanyun or Prince Nan Rong Chun, it is extremely simple to assign an identity to the maid. However, Ji Yue said that Aunt Hua was pretty good to her. Ming Ruo felt that it was still
Just go through the motions and save the ship owner from causing trouble to Aunt Hua.
In Yan Zhaobai's opinion, this matter was really not difficult, so he sent Chang Shan to deal with it directly.
His Royal Highness Prince Yun is a little dissatisfied. Although he is not in Donghuan at this time, can't I handle this trivial matter?
Ming Ruo only felt funny when she saw Si Haochen's awkward look. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake. She asked Fifth Brother to handle this matter just to make things easier.
Zi Su brought four plates of cold dishes on a tray and placed them on the table. Then, Zi Cao brought three more bowls of cold noodles.
The noodles that have been soaked in cold water are springy, with green cucumber shreds and oily chicken shreds piled on top, and a fragrant and strange sauce is drizzled around them, making it look refreshing and delicious.
In order to appease her quarrelsome boyfriend, Mingruo asked softly: "Do you want chili oil?"
Si Haochen was not very good at eating spicy food before, but after being baptized by butter hotpot again and again, he is now an expert at eating spicy food: "Yes."
Mingruo took a spoonful of chili oil and mixed the cold noodles evenly, and the aroma was instantly stimulated.
Mingruo put the mixed cold noodles in front of Si Haochen and said with a smile: "Try it and see if you need to add more vinegar."
Now when he heard his wife say "jealousy", His Highness Prince Yun felt sour: "No need, this is good."
Mingruo raised his head and looked at Yan Zhaobai: "Brother Wu must have never eaten this strange-flavored cold noodles. Do you want me to help you mix it?"
"No need, I know how to mix it myself." Yan Zhaobai thought that he was not as childish as the 'black sesame glutinous rice balls'. How old he is, he still has to be coaxed to eat.
"Would you like to add some chili oil?" Mingruo added a spoonful to his bowl, "This is very fragrant and not spicy at all."
"Okay." Yan Zhaobai looked at the red chili oil, which really added a lot of color to the noodles.
Mingruo scooped a spoonful of chili oil into Yan Zhaobai's bowl. Yan Zhaobai mixed the noodles well and took a bite - sour, spicy, salty and sweet exploded in his mouth. Although every flavor could be tasted, they were surprisingly harmonious.
It's very appetizing to eat in such hot weather.
However, Xiao Jiuer said that the chili oil was not spicy at all, which seemed to be a deception.
The three of them had dinner and started talking about business.
"Early tomorrow morning, we will take the waterway from the canal, so that we can reach Qingyang Mountain in less than three days." Yan Zhaobai said, "Do you have any questions?"
Mingruo and Si Haochen looked at each other and shook their heads slightly, indicating that there was no problem.
"The ships used..."
Before Si Haochen finished speaking, Yan Zhaobai spoke: "I have already arranged everything."
Previously in Donghuan, black sesame glutinous rice balls could arrange all the matters. Now that we have reached the border of Nanrong, we ask him to arrange it. How will I deal with my uncle's money in the future? (Mingruo: Don't feel inferior, as long as you are still me.
I recognize you as a cheap brother. No matter when, you will always be a majestic uncle.)
Later in the evening, Chang Shan came back with Ji Yue's body deed. Yan Zhaobai couldn't figure it out. After all, she was Xiao Jiu'er's personal maid. Even if she didn't go back to Nanrong with the escort team, she wouldn't end up being sold as a pearl fisher.
The state of women.
Yan Zhaobai came to the door of the east wing and knocked on the door.
Lithospermum boiled water and prepared medicine for Jiyue: "It's a bit hot, let it cool down before drinking."
"Thank you." Jiyue's left ear was treated with medicine several times and it improved a bit. With her mouth shape, it no longer affected her communication.
"Then I'll go and serve the princess first, and I'll come see you later." Zicao put a piece of sesame candy next to the medicine bowl, "It will make your mouth sweet after taking the medicine."
"Okay." A grateful smile appeared on Jiyue's face.
"Who is it..." Zi Cao heard someone knocking on the door and hurried to the door. He saw Yan Zhaobai standing outside the door and saluted, "Mr. Yan."
"Well, is Ji Yue here?" Yan Zhaobai asked.
"Yes, sir, please come in." Zi Cao guessed that His Highness Prince Chun had something to say to Ji Yue, so he withdrew with discernment.
When Ji Yue saw Yan Zhaobai, she saluted directly: "Your Highness, Fifth Highness, this servant did not serve the princess well and deserves death."
"You get up first. I have something to ask you." Yan Zhaobai pulled up a chair and sat down.
Ji Yue told His Highness the Fifth Prince everything she knew, emphasizing that the Eighth Princess asked Ji Xue to poison the Princess, disfigured her appearance, and caused her to be buried.
Yan Zhaobai clenched his fists loudly. He only knew that Yan Mingyu was domineering in the palace. Fortunately, Xiao Jiuer could not stay in the palace for long all year round. But he never thought that she actually bribed Xiao Jiuer's personal maid and stretched out her hands.
Went to Donghuan.
Recalling that when Xiao Jiuer got married, he wanted to personally escort Xiao Jiuer to Donghuan. However, a large number of pirates suddenly appeared in Haiphong. He led his troops there, but the pirates suddenly retreated... He only thought this was a bit strange at the time.
, now thinking about Yan Mingyu’s cunning grandfather, I was shocked to realize that I must have been deliberately separated by them.
What's even more annoying is that Xiao Jiu'er didn't say anything after being so wronged. Even if he was asked to get Ji Yue's body contract, he didn't say why it happened like this.
"Do you know where Jixue is now?" If you want to find out everything, it is more straightforward to start with Jixue.
"I don't know, this slave." Ji Yue shook her head.
Yan Zhaobai turned around and left the east wing, heading to Mingruo and Si Haochen's bedroom. When he arrived at the door of the room, he could see through the bamboo curtain that there was only the maid named Zi Su doing needlework inside.
"Fifth brother, are you looking for me?" A clear female voice came from above.
Yan Zhaobai retreated to the courtyard and looked up. He saw Xiao Jiuer and the black sesame glutinous rice balls sitting side by side on the ridge of the roof, holding a sprig of sweet-scented osmanthus in his hand.
Yan Zhaobai tapped his toes and went up to the roof: "Okay, why did you come here?"
