The news about the Rainbow Moon Pavilion had already spread like wildfire. Some officials even went to the Emperor several times to speak up, some claiming that they were worthy of the Emperor, in order to encourage merchants to do more things for the benefit of the common people, while others expressed that the people of the Rainbow Moon Pavilion had evil intentions and should send out orders to investigate as soon as possible.
However, after the Emperor received the imperial edict, he didn't release it. He waited until this message was sent over before becoming enraged, directly ordering him to investigate the Rainbow Moon Pavilion.
Within the Tombal Mountain City, Li Mu Nian put down the letter in his hand and sighed as he shook his head."This was originally a good thing, but since Zhang Yang was too strong, it eventually led to disaster."
Madam Zhou placed the teacup at his hand."Master, I am somewhat puzzled. The Nebula Market had previously taught embroidery and was similarly loved and respected by the citizens of Ziling City. Why would the Emperor issue an order to acknowledge it and provoke the Emperor's wrath when it came to the Rainbow Moon Pavilion?"
"Someone is trembling as he kneels in front of you. I hope you can reward him with a mouthful of food. If you throw a bean at him, he would be grateful. Would you care about that?"
"It's just a bean. What's there to care about?"
"What if someone is so arrogant as to grab something to eat from your bowl?"
Madame Zhou frowned, "Then why didn't you chop off his claws?" Li Mu let out a young laugh, "Nebula Workshop only affected a small Tomb City, and after that, it kept to itself. It even made a booklet of the embroidery needle technique and offered it to the Emperor.
Since I've given my all to the loyal officials of the Emperor, I don't dare to show the slightest disrespect. The Emperor naturally doesn't care too much about this. However, the Rainbow Moon Pavilion is everywhere and has been sought after by the common people. Its reputation has even surpassed that of the imperial government.
"But the news of the matter with the Pavilion of the Moon and the Heavens had already spread far and wide. Why is it only now that we have given the order to deal with it?" Your Majesty's thoughts are unpredictable, so who can guess correctly? " The emperor had been silent for a long time, but there were many people in the imperial court who could not hold themselves back. They jumped out to rope in the Rainbow Moon Pavilion, and even helped to clear up the joints between the heavens and the earth. Even several princes were involved, how could they not?
Make him mind? However, after this incident, the people in the court would likely be in peace for a long time.
The next day, when the sky had just begun to brighten, Jin Qiao knocked on Mu Yunyao's door."Miss, the owner of the Rainbow Moon Pavilion, Tan Lin, is currently outside begging for an audience.
Mu Yunyao opened her eyes and when she heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle."Since that's the case, then let's go meet him. You get someone to lead him and sit in the No Envy Pavilion. I'll go there after I change my clothes."
On the table, the Snow Fox heard the commotion and immediately stood up, looking at Mu Yunyao with a guarded expression.
Mu Yunyao didn't have the mood to care about it. She changed her clothes, washed her face and rinsed her mouth before coming to the Embroidery Garden.
In the hall, Tan Lin's face was gloomy and uneasy. A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes when he saw Mu Yunyao walk in."Miss Mu, I really didn't expect that your face was so beautiful, yet your thoughts were so vicious!"
Mu Yunyao casually sat in a chair to the side and then ordered Jin Lan, "Go brew a pot of tea for Master Tan. Let him drink a cup to vent his anger."
"Heh, I don't dare to drink the tea here. Who knows if there's any problem with the tea?"
Mu Yunyao didn't care about Tan Lin's attitude."I wonder why Master Tan came to see me so early in the morning?"
"Since you're at such a situation, why are you pretending to be ignorant? Back then, you promised me that you would teach me how to use the embroidery needle technique, but why did you go back on your word and secretly harm me?"
"What is the meaning of those words? Why can't I understand them?" Don't understand? Then I will explain it to you so that you understand! First, you set up a trap for my son and brought me to Ziling City to meet you. Afterwards, you used the credit of teaching me the embroidery needle technique to make me not pursue the responsibility of that lowly slave girl, so I naturally wouldn't trace it back to you.
"When I started to teach you the embroidery needle technique, you actually gave it to the Emperor. This way, I would be fighting with the Emperor for credit. How could my life still exist?"
Mu Yunyao's face showed doubt."What Old Tan said was wrong, I didn't ask your son to come to Ziling City, and I didn't ask him to take liberties with Qing. As for the things that you said later on, I had no idea at all, and didn't understand what you were talking about at all."
"You ... If something happened, you won't admit it. Did you forget about the matter of teaching embroidery? We have written a written agreement! " Tan Lin's expression was sinister, "If something happens to me, you won't be able to escape either!"
Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes in silence. Tan Lin thought that his words were effective and his tone became even more anxious."Miss Mu, the embroidery needle techniques that the Rainbow Moon Pavilion had imparted to the Emperor were all done by you. Once the emperor finds out about it, the one who bore the brunt of it would be you."Now, we have to think carefully about how we should settle this matter. Perhaps, there are still some things that we should consider ..."
"There's a chance for redemption."
"Then what does Master Tan think we should do?"
"According to the book, if I were to impart the embroidery needle technique to the people everywhere, they would be able to explain the merits of the Nebula Market and your majesty would be able to see through it. I believe that you know the solution to this problem as well, and the only way is to record all of this into Nebula Market."
Mu Yunyao raised her eyes and doubtfully asked, "Should we record it on the head of the Nebula Market and let the Emperor not pursue the matter?" Tan Lin hurriedly nodded."That's right. Think about it, the golden signboard of the Nebula Market was personally bestowed by the Emperor. It is equivalent to the prestige of the Emperor. As long as the credit goes to Nebula Market, it would be equivalent to indirectly handing over the credit to the Emperor.
I can't say for sure if I give it to you again."
Mu Yunyao's forehead slightly creased, as if she was carefully considering something.
Tan Lin could not help but continue to persuade him, "Miss Mu, what else is there to think about? Because it involves a lot of things and also requires a lot of time to make the arrangements for the transfer of the credit to the Nebula Pavilion, you have to make the decision as soon as possible."
"Even though I said so, I still have some doubts."
"Miss, please take a look. I've already brought the agreement, and as long as you sign the agreement, I can use it to push the Nebula Pavilion to the next level. In a few years, it might even be possible to suppress the name of the Rainbow Moon Pavilion, so why not?"
Mu Yunyao carefully looked at the contract in front of her and couldn't help but slightly nod her head."The content in the contract book seems to be extremely good ..." Joy flashed across Tan Lin's eyes: "Since that's the case, then lady should hurry up and sign it. I'll start making the arrangements overnight."
