Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 224

[Chapter 224]

In the afternoon, there were not many things in Niyunfang, Su Qing let Mu Yunyao go home to rest early.

Not long after Mu Yunyao returned home, she heard Jin Lan come to report: “Miss, steward Qin invites you to come to Jinxiu Garden.”

Xuehu jumped onto Mu Yunyao’s lap, rubbed her fingers lightly with her head, and made a humming sound, looking extremely aggrieved.

Mu Yunyao lowered her head and stroked Xuehu’s head. A soft, warm touch came from her fingertips. She pondered for a moment before nodding, “I see.”

The silver taels in my hand are enough now, so it is not impossible to separate from Yue Wang, but in the end, Niyunfang and Buxianlou are intertwined, and it is too involved to break it off easily. So even if it is painful, you must make a clear decision with him as soon as possible.

King Yue in Jinxiu Garden was a little nervous. It had been four days since the last unhappy breakup. He thought about it carefully. At that time, he was really too impulsive. After so long contact, he already knew that Mu Yunyao was too cautious. That pressing question at that time obviously pushed her further.

After a while, Steward Qin walked into the study: “My lord, Miss Mu is here.”

King Yue was refreshed, and he quickly sat upright: “Miss Mu, please come in.”

Mu Yunyao walked into the study with a gentle smile on her face, but she could not detect the slightest abnormality: “I have seen Fourth Master.”

I thought that Mu Yunyao would not come to see him this time, and even if she did, she would definitely be annoyed by what happened before, but she didn’t expect that not only did she come, but there was no abnormality on her face.

King Yue’s mind sank a little bit, and she worried about it for so long, but she didn’t take her previous unhappiness to heart at all?

“Don’t be too polite, I invited you over this time because I have something to discuss with you.”

“What is the fourth master’s order, even if I say it, but I will do my best to do whatever I can.” Mu Yunyao looked up at King Yue, thinking that this life is the source, and her mind actually calmed down a little bit. , the fear and suspicion of the King Yue left over from the previous life actually dissipated little by little, and he was finally able to face him with a normal heart.

It seems that it is beneficial to have a conflict, at least you don’t have to feel cold in your heart every time you see him.

King Yue was keenly aware that Mu Yunyao’s mood was a bit wrong, but he could not tell the difference after careful inspection: “You asked me before, do you have any thoughts on the batch of salt that Li Yuanyi is delivering? Want to hear what your plans are?”

Afraid that his words would remind Mu Yunyao of the unpleasantness before, King Yue looked at Mu Yunyao’s expression carefully, and his tone unconsciously calmed down.

Mu Yunyao didn’t have the slightest abnormal color, and the smile on her face was still the same: “I originally wanted to talk to the fourth master again, but it happened that you asked, so would it be feasible for you to listen?”

King Yue couldn’t say a sigh of relief in his heart, but still disappointed, he nodded slightly when he heard the words: “Let’s hear it.”

“The fourth master also knows that the high salt price is now due to special salt, which is run by the government, but the system that can be formulated is extremely imperfect, so that private salt is rampant. Rumors that salt sank on the Xijiang River spread, causing the price of salt to rise a little bit higher, and people’s life is not easy, and the high price of salt will definitely make them a little more burdened.”

“indeed so.”

“Then the lord is willing to seek some benefits for the people?”

King Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking quickly in his heart: “Do you want me to send someone to cut off that batch of salt?”

Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded: “We made enough silver taels from those salt merchants, but this grudge has also settled. Right now, the salt merchants and Li Yuan are busy protecting themselves, so naturally they can’t make time for it. Deal with us, but once they react, they will definitely try their best to retaliate, so it is the best policy not to do anything and to eliminate future troubles forever.”

“You want to eradicate Li Yuanyi and those salt merchants?”

Mu Yunyao tilted her head slightly and looked at King Yue: “Don’t you want to get involved in the salt administration in the south of the Yangtze River? If those salt merchants don’t fall, there will be no new salt merchants. Especially the Wu family and Wei family. The family and the Cao family, they have been controlling and balancing Jiangnan for a long time, and they have long lacked the previous caution and restraint in their temperament.

King Yue pondered for a moment, and his eyes gradually deepened: “Okay.” Although this incident is dangerous, there are infinite opportunities. Once successful, his manpower will undergo earth-shaking changes.

Mu Yunyao laughed: “The fourth master has to hurry up to prepare, after a while, the salt boat will cross the Xijiang River, pass through Jingling City, and then head north from Linjiang City, all three places can be operated. There are pros and cons in the timing and location selection, it depends on how the fourth master plans.”

“Do you have any suggestion?” King Yue asked Mu Yunyao subconsciously.

“I don’t know how specific it is, but when I came to Jingling City with my mother, I heard the old boatman say something, saying that Linjiang City is very prone to fog in summer, and it is very common in the local area. Strange, the fourth master may wish to ask the old boatmen carefully, boating on water all year round, and having some ability to predict the weather, if you can catch up with a foggy day, then God will help you.”

King Yue gave Mu Yunyao a deep look, then nodded and said, “Okay, I will send someone to investigate immediately.”

After talking about the business, the study suddenly became quiet, Mu Yunyao waited for a while, and didn’t hear any other orders from King Yue, so she got up and said goodbye: “I will not continue to disturb the fourth master…”

“Wait,” King Yue stood up and took out an exquisite wooden box from the side. The box was made of sandalwood and inlaid with precious stones, which was very valuable at first sight, “Thanks to your help me, Let me earn so many silver taels so smoothly, this is a thank you gift I have prepared, I hope you can accept it.”

Mu Yunyao’s fingertips trembled slightly, she raised her hand and took the box over. After opening it and taking a look, she felt a sudden movement in her heart: The box contains all jewelry, and they are extremely precious and gorgeous. The jewelry I bought from Yibaoxuan today , and the one in the box is simply unattractive.

“Fourth Master, these jewelry are too precious…”

“Take it, in fact, these things have been with me for a long time, and they are reluctant to throw away, leaving them empty and dusty, just for you…” These jewelry are all left by his mother, and they have been stored in him for a long time. Time, and now I finally found the person I want to send, which is also a blessing.

Mu Yunyao thought for a while, then saluted King Yue: “If that’s the case, then I will thank the Fourth Master for the reward. If there is nothing else, I will leave first.”

“it is good.”

When Mu Yunyao left, Steward Qin hurriedly walked into the study: “My lord, did Miss Mu take the jewelry?”

King Yue nodded, but there was a slight wrinkle between his brows.

“Then why do you look unhappy?”

“It’s nothing.” Mu Yunyao didn’t show anything unusual just now, and even took the gift he gave away when he left at the end, but he felt keenly that something had changed, and he couldn’t see it now. Whether this change was good or bad, only made him worry.

“It doesn’t take a few steps, it can’t be thousands of miles, the long road is long, it’s a long way to go, and the water drops through the stone…”

King Yue couldn’t help laughing softly: “Uncle Qin, I understand.”
