Mu Yunyao arrived at the study and saw that Ming Yin was kneeling on the ground. Her clothes hadn't changed, and her face was slightly pale. She looked extremely miserable as she raised her head to look at the Battleaxe King."What are you doing?"
Yue Yang raised his head: "Ming Yin is not good at things, she deserves to be punished."
"You can't blame Ming Yin for this. If it wasn't for Li Mu Nian's sudden disturbance, today's matter would have gone smoothly. Ming Yin, please get up."
Ming Yin turned her head and kowtowed to Mu Yunyao."Miss, missing this opportunity not only messed up your plans, but it also makes it difficult to know when my old grudge from all these years will be resolved. Your servant's heart really cannot bear it, so you should punish me."
"There's still a way to salvage the situation, so you don't have to be too hasty ..." Yu Yi rushed over before she could finish speaking.
"Master Four, the Governor of Two Rivers, Li Yuan, has returned. He has asked to see Miss Mu and is currently being entertained by Supervisor Qin."
The atmosphere in the study room suddenly turned cold, and Yu Yi could not help but lower his head even lower. He could only feel the sound of killing intent in his ears.
Mu Yunyao stood up."Things aren't too bad yet. I'll go see him now. If there's a chance, bring the seals of the two rivers's governor over. If it doesn't work out, make another plan."
"Wait." The King of Assassins called out to stop Mu Yunyao, and a trace of a frown appeared on his forehead."You don't need to see him, let Ming Yin try again. If it's still not possible, then I'll make a move."
Feeling the killing intent from the last four words of the Titan, Mu Yunyao quickly shook her head, "Li Yuan will still be of use in the future, so I can't arouse his suspicions now. It's most appropriate for me to go."
"No way!" He had investigated Li Yuan's temperament very clearly. At this time, he had rushed over to see Mu Yunyao, and his thoughts were clear as day. How could he let her take the risk?
Yu Yi gave Ming Yin a meaningful glance, and the two of them silently retreated, leaving only Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao standing facing each other in the room.
"Master Four, why are you not trusting me?"
"I don't trust Li Yuan." The cold aura around him caused the atmosphere in the study to become even more tense.
Mu Yunyao was stunned for a moment, then she lowered her eyes, only then did she realize why the King of Assassins was so adamant about not agreeing. He was actually jealous ...
"Fourth Master, I'm just going to retrieve the seal, there won't be any other matters. Also, I'm well versed in medical knowledge, so I still have a way to protect myself."
"That wouldn't put you in danger."
Mu Yunyao frowned. She had already explained in warm words that Wang Yue still refused to let go, causing a bit of anger to rise in her heart, "Is it possible for Fourth Master to build a golden silk cage to lock people up?"
The corner of King Yue's lips moved. Looking at Mu Yunyao's resolute expression, a trace of helplessness flashed across his heart."You ..." Although according to our guesses, the salt merchants will not make a big deal out of it, what if they do not follow our plans and directly make a big deal out of it? 'When the time comes, the emperor will investigate and use Fourth Master's current abilities to do so! '
Can you cross the sea without telling the world? "
Yue Yang pursed his lips, the coldness in his eyes growing stronger, like a cold winter night: "I'll go with you, I'll stay in the shadows to ensure your safety."
Mu Yunyao fell silent for a moment."Sure."
Mu Yunyao carefully examined the dagger in her hand. It was exactly the same as the one that Wang Yue had given her, except that the gemstone inlaid in the handle was slightly different."This dagger ..."
Yue Yang directly walked out of the room and didn't pay attention to Mu Yunyao's question.
Steward Qin led Li Yuan to the Hibiscus Courtyard and explained patiently, "Please wait a moment, Sir Li. Miss Mu rarely makes any tea. Whether or not she is willing to come and see the lord requires a special inquiry."
"Then let's hurry. I do have something that I need to discuss with Lady Mu. As long as you say it, she will definitely come and see me."
"Yes, please take a seat, milord."
After waiting for about half an hour, Mu Yunyao slowly walked in."Greetings, Sir Li. I heard from Supervisor Qin that you have something to discuss with me. Is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that I've mentioned?"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up as Mu Yunyao changed her clothes. Right now, her clothes were the color of the moon, making her look even more beautiful and refined, like a fairy descending to earth. Li Yuan calmed himself down with great difficulty."It can be considered to be related to this matter. I heard from the lady that she wanted to thank the people of Ziling City during the Dragon Boat Festival." The girl also knows, I am now governor of two rivers, many places can say one
In two words, if this young lady wants to expand the neon city, I can help."
Mu Yunyao had a happy expression, "Is what sire said true?"
"Of course, can I lie to you?"
"That would be great." Mu Yunyao was overjoyed. Her eyes were bright like the stars, seeming to be able to attract people's attention."Thank you, Sir Li. I really don't know how to repay such a huge kindness."
Li Yuan walked to Mu Yunyao's side and sized up her face with a trace of infatuation in his eyes."I've always felt that Miss Mu was very popular when I first saw her, and seeing how kind and kind she is, I decided to not help out in return."
Mu Yunyao didn't seem to notice the abnormality in his actions as she said a few words of thanks as usual, "Since Lord Li thinks this way for me, Yun Yao is unable to repay this kindness, so she wholeheartedly brewed a cup of good tea for you. Consider it my gift of gratitude."
"Alright." Li Yuan's current thoughts were not on the tea, so naturally anything she said would be fine.
Mu Yunyao finished making the tea and stood up with the tea cup in her hand. Just as she turned around and bumped into Li Yuan, the tea cup in her hand almost spilled over, causing her to hurriedly hold out her hand in shock, "Ah ... Lord Li, please forgive me! "
Li Yuan smelled the fragrant aroma of the tea and his expression turned absent-minded. Mu Yunyao apologised, but quickly exchanged the scented sachet with the seal on his waist. With a turn of her wrist, she placed it in her sleeve.
In the past few days, even Li Yuan had prepared many scented pouches containing seals. Whether it was size, shape, pattern, or weight, they were all exactly the same as the ones on his body, all so that he wouldn't notice them after replacing the scented pouches.
Mu Yunyao's movements were quick, and Li Yuan did not feel the slightest bit strange. Hearing her apologizing, he hurriedly said, "I was rude. Just now, I saw that the girl was too engrossed in making the tea and I unknowingly stood beside the table." The tea has already been brewed, how about you have a taste of it? "
