PDLP Chapter 736: I'm convinced, rich and powerful
Chapter 736: I'm convinced, rich and powerful
Ye Xiaohan gave Ying Yi the order and looked back at Du Ziheng.
Du Ziheng sat upright, his face very calm and composed.
Ye Xiaohan retracted his gaze and said nothing more. When he first met Du Ziheng, Du Ziheng was timid and cowardly. Now, looking back, Du Ziheng has been with him for several years and has grown a lot.
His, Ye Xiaohan's subordinates, must not be cowards.
In the Herb Hall, Yun Mujiu asked the waiters to serve a new batch of tea. This time it was not tea, but fruit salad that Yun Mujiu taught the waiters to make.
Bai Yanshuang was very happy, she loved these sweet things the most! Mu Jiu's head was always filled with so many wonderful ideas, the things Mu Jiu made must be the most delicious!
You Luoyan was a little more stable. She smiled faintly at first, then thanked and praised Yun Mujiu.
Yueguilou has recently put many new desserts on the shelves, including fruit salad. In less than a month, the fruit salad created by Yun Mujiu has become popular in the capital. This refreshing and delicious dessert is very popular. Even the recipe of this dessert is constantly spreading to places outside the city. Before Yun Mujiu came, people didn't know that there was such a way to cook fruit.
Meng Ninglang and Ling Xingmu thanked Yun Mujiu politely. Although they were men, they still liked this dessert which was just the right amount of sweetness.
While everyone was enjoying dessert, Yun Mujiu thought back to the news she had just heard. From Ling Xingmu and Meng Ninglang, she learned some border news about the northern and southern parts of Zhongyue.
The Northern Border is close to the Dongyang Empire and Beihan. It is an important fortress and has attracted attention from all parties over the years.
The southern border is close to Southern Thailand, and a long section of the border is lined with mountains. There are many obstacles set up among the mountains to prevent Southern Thais from crossing the border and attacking.
...
Yun Mujiu finished his recollections and turned to look at Ling Xingmu.
Long before, Ling Xingmu insisted on not taking back the five million taels of silver notes. Yun Mujiu could only occasionally send Ling Xingmu various good medicines from the doctor's system, as well as some unique secret medicines and nourishing tonics she developed herself. She also gave Ling Xingmu three VIP cards of her shop, and the cards were already topped up with a certain amount of silver notes.
Ling Xingmu was convinced by Yun Mujiu's insistence. As a grown man, he couldn't push Yun Mujiu back and forth like this anymore, so he could only accept it all. Damn it, he wanted to defeat Yun Mujiu! So he wrote another letter back to the North Realm, asking his people to bring some more goodies over and give them to Ye Wang and Yun Mujiu in the future.
Yun Mujiu paused and said casually: "Mr. Ling, you don't have to spend so much money."
Ling Xingmu collected his thoughts and replied to Yun Mujiu with a smile: "There is no reason to take back what you have given away!"
"That's right." Meng Ninglang patted Ling Xingmu's shoulder. "Cousin, no matter what, this kid is still a member of the Ling family. He will definitely need money."
"That's right!" Ling Xingmu raised his eyebrows, with the noble temperament of a young master from an aristocratic family, and said: "I am rich and powerful. My life is very valuable! Princess Ye, if you don't accept the consultation fee I offer, it proves that you think I am not worth that price!"
Now it was Yun Mujiu's turn to be convinced, "Okay, okay." Okay, that's it. Although she was not a money-grubber, she couldn't stop the wealthy from spending money.
Then, they chatted for a while about the recent events in Beijing. After two cups of tea, Meng Ninglang and Ling Xingmu said goodbye, and Bai Yanshuang and You Luoyan also stood up. Yun Mujiu gave them some of the latest summer herbal tea bags from Herb Hall, which they could take back and drink with water.
After Meng Ninglang and Ling Xingmu left, Bai Yanshuang returned to the pharmacy shortly after, holding the plaster she bought for her father.
"Mu Jiu, Luo Yan, what are you doing?"
"Luo Yan is talking to me." Yun Mujiu replied.
Bai Yanshuang's high ponytail swung in an arc in the air, and in the blink of an eye she squeezed in between Yun Mujiu and You Luoyan.
"Sisters, can you tell me?"
Yun Mujiu couldn't help laughing. Why were Yan Shuang and Meng Ninglang so gossipy together?
"Yan Shuang, it's not a big deal. I just went shopping with my mother recently and met Miss Hongzhu several times."
"Oh." Bai Yanshuang climbed onto the shoulders of her two good sisters with both hands, "By the way, does Miss Hongzhu have some relationship with your mother?"
You Luoyan smiled gently: "Yes. My mother has been in contact with Miss Hongzhu. They are just ordinary friends."
"Did you see anything happen to Miss Hong?" Bai Yanshuang asked curiously. Yun Mujiu followed suit, and she just happened to talk about this with You Luoyan.
"It's nothing serious." You Luoyan recalled, "When I was shopping with my mother, I saw Miss Hong enter the back door of the Yun Mansion a few times. Then one time I saw her go to the medicine cabinet to buy something, and then asked the servant beside her to deliver the things to the Yun Mansion."
The three little girls recalled the recent rumors about Yunxiang and Hongzhu, and a very faint smile appeared on the corners of their mouths.
Yun Xiang has always been called a scumbag, and now he is confidently contacting the young lady of a wealthy family. Won't he be called a toad wanting to eat swan flesh in the future?
What's more, with Hongzhu's conditions, is it possible for her to be attracted to Yunxiang easily?
What others didn't know, Yun Mujiu knew, was that Hong Zhu was reluctant to buy the good medicine from the Herb Hall for Yun Xiang, but instead went to other pharmacies to buy some cheap medicine to get rid of Yun Xiang.
Yun Mujiu smiled but said nothing. When she entered the palace, she told the emperor that Yun Xiang had other intentions and had long been attracted to someone else, so she was anxious to get rid of her engagement with Meng. Even if the emperor came to his senses in the past few days, it would be difficult for him to find loopholes in her words, because rumors had begun to spread in the past two days that Yun Xiang and Hong Zhu were secretly flirting with each other.
With the evidence in front of him, the emperor had no choice but to believe that what she said was true, and he could not continue to find any evidence to punish her.
Yun Mujiu and her two sisters' eyes sparkled as they started gossiping together. You Luoyan was a lady from a wealthy family, but she was very good at talking about love and relationships.
Yu Luoyan emotionally recounted what she saw and heard - the recent encounter between Yunxiang and Hongzhu...
Yun Mujiu and Bai Yanshuang were amused and laughed out loud. The contrast of You Luoyan's image was very interesting, and the description was very lifelike.
You Luoyan said that she once saw Yun Xiang having someone carry him on a stretcher, thinking of personally opening the back door to bring Miss Hong into the Yun Mansion. In You Luoyan's description, Yun Xiang's posture was like a mouse hiding its head, sneaky and very weird.
...
In a villa in the capital, two men wearing bamboo hats walked out from the back door.
They deliberately chose to walk on streets with few people, and later got on an inconspicuous carriage.
When it was getting dark, the carriage arrived at a place. The two of them quietly jumped off the carriage and slipped back to Qingxuan Palace.
Soon, the two changed their clothes, one in guard uniform and the other in red.
"Seventh Prince..." Cang Feng called softly. But he didn't dare to shout too loudly, as he looked guilty.
Woohoo, he hasn't forgotten how he was scolded by the Seventh Prince in the afternoon...
