Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 196

[Chapter 196 Kill the chicken to warn the fox]

After taming the snow fox, Mu Yunyao was very novel. Not only did she cook and cook for the snow fox, but she also trimmed her nails and fur, as if she was treating it like a child.

King Yue received the news from Yangzhou City, and handed the letter to Mu Yunyao, his eyes swept across the snow fox lying on her shoulder, his eyebrows moved slightly: “Fox is cunning, you are so defenseless against it, Aren’t you afraid that it will take advantage of the chaos to attack you?”

Mu Yunyao raised her lips slightly, raised her arm, and Xuehu followed her arm and climbed from her shoulder into her palm: “Didn’t the fourth master say that the Xuehu in western Guangdong has spirituality and is extremely protective of the master after being tamed? I think it knows what’s best to do.”

Xuehu licked Mu Yunyao’s fingertips in a pleasing manner, wagging his tail and trying hard to wrap around her wrist, his eyes were extraordinarily smart.

King Yue was a little curious. He had seen others tame a snow fox, but he had never seen a tamed snow fox so close to his master: “What did you do?”

Mu Yunyao narrowed her eyes: “Does killing chickens count as an example to foxes?” She has not been cooking with snow foxes for nothing these days. Although animals are not smart enough, they have keen intuition and know how to choose the most beneficial to them. .

The smile in King Yue’s eyes spread out: “It’s good if it’s obedient.” He caught several snow foxes and deliberately chose the one that looked the most spiritual. Although the smarter the snow fox, the more difficult it would be to tame, but he somehow felt that Mu Yunyao There is a way, and now it seems to be the right choice.

Mu Yunyao raised her hand and put Xuehu on her shoulder, carefully looking at the contents of the letter. Xuehu was extraordinarily well-behaved. Seeing her bowing her head, she involuntarily bowed her head and went over to join in the fun.

One person, one snow fox, with curved eyebrows and upturned eyes, looks very similar, causing King Yue to take a few more glances, only to feel as if feathers are falling gently in his heart, and the touch is soft and itchy, which makes people unable to stop the apex of their hearts from trembling. .

“It seems that the effect of sending peony is not bad.” After Mu Yunyao said that, King Yue was still in a daze, thinking that he was thinking about something, so he could not help but wait quietly.

Yue Wang returned to his senses, involuntarily closed his eyes, and the corners of his lips rose slightly: “In this way, our next plan will be more guaranteed.”

“Well, can the fourth master hear who was dispatched to check the salt tax this time?”

“If nothing else, it should be Li Yuanyi, Governor of Liangjiang.”

“The last name is Li?” Did the Li family appear too often?

King Yue nodded slightly: “Li Yuanyi is a side branch of the Li family. Today’s eldest prince and concubine are from this branch. If you think about it seriously, the eldest prince should call Li Yuanyi his cousin.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help raising the corners of her lips, and she secretly sighed in her heart that the whole Jiangnan would be lively: “The emperor sent someone to check the salt tax, of course, he wanted to rectify the salt administration, so as not to allow too much private salt sales. It’s rampant, but if the Li family is sent to Jiangnan, I’m afraid it won’t work, right?”

Jiangnan has become the world of the Li family, and they still don’t take the opportunity to gather salt merchants and help the eldest prince develop his wings?

“Royal father is meticulous and has always had his own set of regulations. It is difficult for outsiders to speculate, but at the moment, the emperor should be somewhat dissatisfied with the big brother in his heart.”

Mu Yunyao quickly thought of the Caiyue Pavilion that was closed down recently. There were rumors that the people of the eldest prince had been active in the court, hoping to help Caiyue Pavilion get the emperor’s reward and recognition, but the results were unsatisfactory.

“Does the fourth master know what the Governor of Liangjiang likes?”

King Yue was silent for a while, his eyes moved slightly, and a dark color flashed: “Beauty!”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but chuckle: “Yes, there is no man in the world who doesn’t like beauty, it’s much easier to do it if you like beauty. Can Miss Mingyin under the fourth master lend me a period of training?”

“Mingyin is practicing assassination skills. If you want to use it against Li Yuanyi, I’m afraid the effect will not be very good. I can find someone else to send it to you.”

“No, I think Miss Mingyin is very good, and she has assassination skills, and she can prevent Li Yuanyi from taking advantage of her by force.” Mu Yunyao had a plan in her heart, and she couldn’t help but feel a lot easier, and let Xuehu go. Gently stroke his back on his knees.

Seeing Mu Yunyao’s insistence, King Yue didn’t force it any further, his eyes fell on Xuehu, who squinted his eyes: “Can you think of a name for it?”

“I didn’t think about it, what did the fourth master teach you?”

“Xuehu has a light body and gallops like a fly on the snow. Why don’t you just call it treading snow?”

Mu Yunyao smiled brightly. She had to say that the name that King Yue thought was really in line with her mind. The ferret raised by the eldest lady of the Su family was called Bai Xue, and the fox she raised was called Ta Xue. , isn’t it a very appropriate expression of her state of mind?

“Okay, thank the fourth master for his name.”

Not long after Mu Yunyao returned home, Caiqing walked in: “This servant has seen Miss.”

“But the person you’re staring at has moved?”

“Miss Hui, the two women you are staring at, one of them suffered a fire in their home last night, and they slept deeply at night, the house collapsed, and they couldn’t escape. When the mother-in-law came back from the delivery, she drank some wine, slipped into the water and drowned.”

Mu Yunyao nodded and motioned for the Jinlan purse on one side to pass it over.

Caiqing quickly declined: “Miss, this is impossible.”

“Take it, the children of the Salesian Bureau have been used to inquire about the news this time. My ability is limited, and I can’t bring them all here to live, but they do their best, and the rewards they deserve are not less. Haruhi also Here, use these silver taels to help them buy some clothes.”

Caiqing hurriedly knelt down to thank her: “Thank you, Miss, for your kindness and virtue.”

“It doesn’t have to be like this, it’s just some silver taels. In the future, if they find out any useful news, they can send it to Jinxiu Garden together. If it is useful, they will give them some money.”

“Yes.”

In the evening, Liuliang came back with news of Qi Ming: “Master, Wu Minzhi and others are extremely careful, and they are still wary of Qi Ming after verifying his identity in every possible way. Qi Ming did not get any useful news, only vaguely aware of it from other people’s mouths. After a while, there will be a large number of official salt that will pass through Jingling City on the Xijiang River.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart moved: “Seeing that the emperor is about to send someone to check the salt tax, there shouldn’t be a large number of official salt sales at this time.” It is time to keep an eye on it, and no one dares to do anything on the salt tax, which will increase the cost a lot more than usual.

“I just heard the news vaguely, not necessarily true.”

“It’s groundless, it’s just what it is. There will be no such news for no reason. Let Qi Ming be more careful and don’t have to rush to inquire. The more stable it is at this time, the more confusing it will be. He prepared Yi Bao Xuan. It should be a while, how are you preparing?”
