Mu Yunyao nodded firmly."Actually, I already had an idea in my heart, I just didn't dare to hope for it. Now that such a great fortune has struck my head, it can finally help my dream come true."
Hearing her words, Lady Jin felt even more playful."Tell me about it first." If that didn't work, he could just persuade her to change it.
"If I ask the emperor for a piece of Mo Bao, I will write 'Nebula Market' on it. After I reconstruct the workshop, I will put a signboard on it. I don't think that there will be any youngsters who would dare to make a move on Nebula Market!"
When Lady Jin heard him, she could not help but nod her head."I was afraid that you would be in a hurry to think of something suitable, but I didn't expect you to think it through more than me. Indeed, this is good. Then when Lord Su wants to talk to you, tell him about this request."
The silver red entered the room and reported, "Madam, Master has sent someone to invite Lady Mu to the hall."
"Got it." Lady Jin nodded at Mu Yunyao, "Quickly go."
Mu Yunyao slowly walked in, and her movements were full of proper etiquette."Greetings, sirs."
After recuperating for a few days, most of her body had recovered. However, her face was still pale and her chin was a bit sharper than before, making her clear eyes seem even larger.
Su Qingwu retracted her gaze. In her heart, she couldn't help but think of that night when her arm felt that warmth. Her body was small, but her bones seemed to be soft.
"Sir Su?" Zhang Xianfeng looked at Su Qingwu with some suspicion. The news that came from the capital was naturally more suitable for him.
Su Qingwu quickly recovered and said, "Miss Mu's Nebula Pavilion has done a great service to Tomb City. The Emperor wanted to reward you, and since we've already given you something in the past, we couldn't think of anything else suitable for you. So we sent you an order asking if you have anything else you want."
Upon entering, Mu Yunyao noticed a middle-aged man sitting next to Su Qingwu. Although he wore the clothes of an ordinary person, his face was pale and his beard was unkempt, and his body had a hint of a feminine aura. It could be seen that he came from an internal palace. After thinking through all of this, she first turned around and bowed deeply towards the direction of the capital, kowtowing respectfully before turning to Su Qingwu."Sir Su, thanks to the Emperor's bestowment, this humble girl is truly terrified. This humble woman and my mother have just arrived at the Tomb City and have received a lot of attention from the citizens and Madame Jin.
I am deeply grateful, thinking that I have no way to repay them, and that my embroidery skills are the only thing I can take out, I decided to publicly teach them to him, in order to repay him for what he has done in the Tomb City."
Su Qingwu slightly narrowed her eyes, the corner of her eyes swept towards Eunuch Xu who was standing by her side, and her lips slightly raised. Earlier, Mu Yunyao had said that embroidery was spread far and wide for the sake of earning silver taels, but now, it had actually turned into a payback for her work.
"Miss Mu's thoughts are truly hard to come by. However, Your Majesty has said such golden words. Since you've said that you will be rewarded, you should speak boldly."
Mu Yunyao's face was filled with joy and gratitude. Her clear eyes made people's hearts tremble as she turned around and bowed towards the direction of the capital. Only then did she speak with slight hesitation."Speaking of which, I do have a wish that even I dare to have."
Next to Su Qingwu, Eunuch Xu couldn't help but speak up."If Miss has any wishes, feel free to speak." The little girl's eyes were truly intelligent and delicate. Anyone who saw them would involuntarily feel a sense of happiness.
Mu Yunyao's face turned slightly red, the embarrassment in her eyes almost overflowing, causing Eunuch Xu to become even more curious. He couldn't help but think in his heart, looking at her expression, could it be that he would want to accompany her?
Mu Yunyao hesitated for a moment before finally speaking, "I want to request a piece of the emperor's treasure."
Eunuch Xu paused for a second, and then slapped himself in his heart. 'I've been in the palace for too long, and it makes my thoughts go dark. The young lady in front of me isn't that young.
When Su Qingwu sensed Eunuch Xu's favorable impression of Mu Yunyao, he couldn't help but closely examine her. Others might not know, but he was clear about this. This Eunuch Xu in front of me was called Xu Li, but he was the one who had the highest possibility of being promoted to the position of steward of the household. He was the one who was most likely to be promoted to the position of steward of the household, and was the one who was most trustworthy of the emperor.
It was as if he had touched his meridians.
A look of surprise flashed across Eunuch Xu's eyes."Miss wishes to request for Your Majesty's Mo Bao?"
"Yes, the Emperor's grace is great, his true dragon form is majestic and awe-inspiring. This Mo Bao also has the aura of a True Dragon. He can definitely protect my daughter and protect her good fortune and health."
Mu Yunyao's smile was gorgeous as her eyes sparkled. Her palm-sized face seemed to be shining, to the point that Eunuch Xu couldn't help but stare blankly at her. This little girl was extraordinary!
In the palace, when he served the Emperor, even the most upright officials would sometimes flatter the Emperor. However, he had never seen anyone speak with such sincerity.
"In that case, I'll go back and report what the lady said to him."
The smile in Mu Yunyao's eyes became even brighter."Many thanks, Sir." It was good to report back. The reason she was behaving like this was so that this eunuch in front of her could speak up in front of the emperor!
"Lord, my teahouse will open tomorrow. There is a batch of tea leaves that I personally made. I don't know if you can present them to the emperor as a gift in return, expressing my gratitude."
Eunuch Xu was stunned. He had seen many people receive rewards from the emperor, but he had never seen anyone return the emperor's favor after receiving the reward."If this is the case ..."
Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes slightly, her fingers twisting uneasily as she spoke with a slightly downcast tone, "What I'm best at is embroidery. It's a pity that my hand was injured and I was unable to create an embroidery screen to report to the emperor, so I could only take out the tea leaves I had personally made earlier and bring them out. I hope the emperor can feel my gratitude."
"To tell you the truth, my lady, everything at the entrance of the Emperor's palace has to go through layers upon layers of screening." My lady, my lady, the things at the entrance of the Emperor's palace have to go through layers of screening.
Mu Yunyao's eyes were filled with disappointment, and then they flashed with hope again."So it's like that? "I wonder if I could give the tea leaves to Sir, and ask Sir to bring the leaves to the capital for a drink. This way, it can also be considered as me sending my good intentions to the capital." Eunuch Xu was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter."Fine, I also love tea. I think I can try your cooking skills." The little girl in front of him had a heart of a pure child, it was truly difficult to come by.
