Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 220

[Chapter 220 Yunyao, you ask]

Wu Minzhi heard that Li Yuanyi was willing to see him, and his heart suddenly relaxed: So it seems that the first prince and Li Yuanyi really plan to let them go!

“I have seen Mr. Li.”

Li Yuan glanced at Wu Minzhi, and his eyes were full of smiles: “Leader Wu doesn’t need to be too polite, these days, the salt government in the south of the Yangtze River is in turmoil, and this official has been making time to investigate, so I didn’t see leader Wu last time. Just don’t mind.”

Wu Minzhi hurriedly stood up: “What did Mr. Li say? You are in charge of every day, and you are fortunate to have time to see me. I have heard about the things that happened in Yangzhou City, and I have heard of the salt merchants, and I know that the adults have worked hard to try the case. , so I gave some small gifts, I hope the adults can laugh at it.”

Saying that, he sent the box he was holding in his hand.

As soon as Li Yuan opened the box, he glanced at it slightly, and the smile deepened in his eyes: “Fortunately, Jiangnan has the leader of Wu in charge, so that the transportation of salt can always be stable.”

“Don’t deserve your praise, this time… I would like to thank you for finding out the case, otherwise the emperor will be angry and say that we salt merchants will also be implicated.” Wu Minzhi was full of gratitude.

The two chatted happily for half an hour before Wu Minzhi got up and said goodbye.

Li Yuanyi received an informative letter from others in a hurry, and only then did he find the hidden salt. He hadn’t investigated the whole matter, so he didn’t say much, and just dealt with it shallowly.

Wu Minzhi, on the other hand, did not dare to say more because he was afraid that there would be ears on the wall because of the importance of framing the blame. The two of them have secrets in their hearts, so they only choose some nice compliments to talk about, no one has to name the key, but let Qi Ming be safe and worry-free.

Things in the south of the Yangtze River were going on in a hurry, and news reached Jingling City within a few days.

As soon as King Yue received the news, he asked steward Qin to send someone to invite Mu Yunyao over.

After reading the letter sent by Jiangnan, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but smile: “This Mr. Li is really resolute. In just a few days, Jiangnan’s salt transport envoy committed suicide, and the officials in charge of transporting salt confessed. Only the Yan Yun envoy Si Yun did not open his mouth, but he couldn’t make too much of a storm by himself.”

“None of these people are clean, and they deserve to die.” King Yue’s eyes were slightly cold. After speaking, he was afraid that Mu Yunyao would feel uncomfortable seeing so many people involved, so he explained, “They transported the goods. It is the salt of Bai Huahua, but the money is made of blood, and everyone has a lot of blood on their hands, and now they are considered dead.”

Mu Yunyao chuckled, she didn’t care about the lives of those people at all, but King Yue was willing to misunderstand, and she didn’t bother to explain: “Fourth Master, Mr. Li is very proud of the spring breeze now, I think that soon, the batch of salt will be gone. It will be re-shipped to the north, what are you thinking about?”

King Yue’s eyes moved abruptly, he raised his eyes and looked at Mu Yunyao intently: “Are you still thinking about this batch of salt?”

Mu Yunyao tilted her head and smiled: “I just asked the fourth master, but I didn’t say anything?”

But steward Qin on the side couldn’t help but be shocked: Because of this batch of salt, firstly, Miss Mu extorted more than 10 million taels from the salt merchants, and then the prince sold the batch of salt for more than 15 million taels. It’s been nearly 30 million taels of silver. If it was replaced by silver ingots, it would be a towering pile of silver. Miss Mu is still making up the idea of this batch of salt. Could it be that she still wants this Grab the batch of salt and sell it again?

King Yue looked at the smiling Mu Yunyao with bright eyes: “Then is there anything else you want to ask?”

The smile in Mu Yunyao’s eyes was even stronger, and she said half-jokingly: “Since the fourth master has spoken, then I will ask everything I want to ask?”

But he didn’t want King Yue to have a serious face when he heard the words, and turned to look at Steward Qin: “Uncle Qin, don’t let a fifth ear appear around.”

Steward Qin nodded solemnly, then went out and ordered Henghe Yu Yi: “Clean up the surrounding of the study, even if there are mice, block the hole for me!”

After a while, the surrounding of the study was completely quiet, King Yue looked at Mu Yunyao: “If you have anything you want to ask, just ask.”

“The fourth master is so formal, but I don’t know what to ask.” Mu Yunyao blinked her eyes slightly, and she was a little stunned. She just mentioned it casually, to see if King Yue was It’s not that he still wants to make a fortune, but he didn’t expect him to pay so much attention, but she couldn’t react for a while.

“You can say whatever you want, and when you’re done, I have something to ask you.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes moved, looking at King Yue’s slightly serious expression, her heart tightened slightly: “If you want to ask the fourth master, just ask.”

“You ask first.”

“Then if I ask, the fourth master can make sure that what he tells me is the truth?” The smile on Mu Yunyao’s face was slightly cold, and her eyes were staring at King Yue.

King Yue frowned and didn’t answer.

Mu Yunyao raised the corners of her lips coldly, and her heart was full of unspeakable sarcasm: “Fourth Master, just pretend that I didn’t say anything, it’s getting late, I want to go back to accompany my mother, so I’m not here. It’s more than that.”

He was full of temptation to himself, but he hoped that he would be frank and right. Where in the world could there be such a thing?

“Stop!” King Yue stood up, walked slowly to Mu Yunyao’s side, lowered his eyes to look at her beautiful and unparalleled face, and the fluctuating light in his eyes gradually calmed down, “You ask!”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, and she was a little unsure of what King Yue meant: “Did the Fourth Master say anything I asked?”

“good.”

“Can you guarantee that you’re telling the truth?”

“There is nothing to say, nothing to say!”

King Yue’s body was cold, and his tall figure almost enveloped Mu Yunyao. An aggressive aura hit Mu Yunyao’s heart, making her seem frightened and couldn’t help but take two steps back.

King Yue’s eyes were blazing, and his expression was unprecedentedly focused. What he did was extremely secretive. If it was an ordinary person who wanted to spy on the secrets, he would make the other party’s blood splatter on the spot if he opened his mouth.

But now that the person who asked the question was Mu Yunyao, he didn’t even see the slightest resistance in his heart. Instead, he wanted to blurt out all the secrets that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time.

Looking at Mu Yunyao’s crystal-clear eyes, an urge surged up in his heart, he wanted Mu Yunyao to understand him, understand his character, understand his work, understand the beautiful expectations and dark feelings in his heart. Cold-blooded and violent, as long as Mu Yunyao wants to know, he is willing to let go of all his defenses and show it completely in front of her.

He has always been ruthless and firm in his heart, and never makes impulsive decisions, but this idea made him hard to resist when he came out, and a crazy idea was screaming in his heart, and he took a gamble and sent the softest place in his heart to Mu Yunyao. !

If he wins the bet, he can hug Mu Yunyao with this kind of softness and fill up his empty heart; if he loses the bet, he just inserts a steel knife in his heart, anyway, it’s already dripping with blood, so why not be afraid of more How many scars?

“Yunyao, just ask.”
