~ LI MUNIAN IS SUSPICIOUS ~
The next morning, Mu Yunyao saw Ming Yin and said, “This day is the most appropriate time to use the powder I gave you. Then, you secretly exchange the seals of the Governor of Liangjiang. Be careful when you do it, and might as well find a chance. Don’t make any mistakes. Otherwise, the entire Bu Xian Luo would be in a predicament.”
“Yes, please be at ease Young Miss. I will definitely be more careful.”
“Right.” Mu Yunyao’s heart sank. The salt merchants wouldn’t spread the news that the salt exchange had gone wrong, but they would definitely think of ways to pave the way. They would suffer such a tremendous loss for nothing, and they won’t take a long time to find Li Yuanyi. Once Ming Yin missed today’s opportunity, it will ruin her plan. As a result, she had deliberately stayed in Jin Xiu Garden.
Li Yuan came here early every morning, but he came a little later today. When he arrived, he was accompanied by Li Munian.
When Mu Yunyao heard the news, her heart suddenly sank. Li Munian even came. Could it be that he received some information? Mu Yunyao thought for a moment before immediately going to see Yue Wang.
Yue Wang had also received the news, and upon seeing Mu Yunyao come in, he promptly signaled for her to calm down and not be impatient. “Don’t worry. I’ll think of a way to lure Li Munian away. It’s just that this way, he’ll probably notice it afterward…”
“It would be best if Li Munian would leave by himself. If he doesn’t leave, I can only ask Fourth Master Ning to help.” This chance was hard to come by. If she took advantage of it, she would be safe. She would not even need to fear the Su family. However, once she made a mistake, she would have to spend her days there carefully.
“Alright.” said the Yue Wang, looking at her intently. “You don’t have to think so much about it. You can do whatever you want to do. Although I haven’t fully deployed my power in Jiangnan, I will still be able to protect you.” Mu Yunyao’s hand under her sleeve suddenly tightened, her nails stabbing into her palm until it hurt, and her heart felt as if it was tightly clenched by someone, causing her chest to tighten. In her previous life, she was alone, helpless, and she can’t rely on anyone. What she hoped for the most was for someone to appear in front of her and protect her. As a result, she had no choice but to choose Jin Wang. She did all she could to please him, tried her best to make him stand out from the masses, and did everything that made him happy. She was trembling all day. Even she could think out a hundred kinds of conjectures with a sigh. The final result was that she was sent to Yue Wang’s Mansion without any warning and died miserably. In this life, she no longer relied on others to protect her, worked hard to make herself more powerful, and secure her mother from harm. However, someone took the initiative to stand out and say that he could protect her, causing her heart to surge with emotions. It was as if she had overturned five buckets and tasted all kinds of tastes in the blink of an eye.
Yue Wang carefully observed Mu Yunyao. He saw that her expression was unperturbed, but a glint flashed in her eyes. It made his heart tense up. Afraid that she would reject him, he quickly changed the topic. “It’s about time. How about going to see what happened to Ming Yin?”
Mu Yunyao suppressed her thoughts and slightly lowered her gaze. With a gentle and calm smile, she said, “Many thanks to Fourth Master. If Mingyin doesn’t manage, there’s no need to force it. We can wait for the next opportunity.”
Yue Wang had already gotten up and was about to leave when he heard these words. He suddenly stopped and turned around. His deep and cold eyes looked at Mu Yunyao, “You won’t miss it!” Since she wanted to do it, he would do his best to make her wish come true.
Mu Yunyao opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but since Yue Wang had already stood up and walked to the door, she could only stay silent.
On the other side, Ming Yin was brewed tea to entertain Li Yuanyi and Li Munian. Ming Yin felt very anxious in her heart. According to her original plan, she should have given Li Yuanyi medicine today and stole the seal of the Governor of Liangjiang. Who would have thought of killing Li Yuanyi, can only wait for the right time. Li Munian looked closely at Ming Yin, and he had actually dispelled his suspicions about Ming Yin before. But Li Yuanyi had been in Bu Xian Luo all day and even always talked about her. Li Yuanyi was totally mesmerized by her, causing doubts to arise in his heart. In addition, these two days were the last few days of inspections in Jingling City. If the other party had any action, it was almost in these days, so he came to have a look.
Ming Yin sat quietly at the side. Even though she was admonishing herself to be steady, she couldn’t help but show signs of impatience. Li Yuanyi happened to see it and asked, “Miss Ming Yin, is there something wrong?”
“Making tea for the guests and entertaining them is my most important task. Moreover, I’m entertaining two Lords today, so naturally, nothing is as important as both of you.” Ming Yin nodded slightly, purposely revealing her slender white neck, causing Li Yuanyi to become absent-minded.
The corner of Li Munian’s lips curled up coldly. “Miss, you have such a sweet mouth.”
Ming Yin smiled but did not reply. She then revealed the teacup that had brewed and said, “The tea has already brewed. Please, the two Lords have a taste.” When she brought the teacup over to Li Yuanyi’s hand, she suddenly lost her balance. The teacup overturned and splashed onto her skirt.
Li Yuanyi stood up distressed: “Miss Ming Yin, how are you? Are you hurt?”
“Don’t worry, Lord. I’ll go down and change my clothes, and then I’ll come and entertain the two of you.”
“No need. We still have things to do, so we’ll be leaving first.” Li Munian stood up and turned to look at Li Yuanyi with a solemn expression, “Uncle, there’s something at the government office. We should go take a look.”
Ming Yin is flustered. Li Mu Nian is obviously suspicious of her. If they were allowed to leave like this, then all Miss Mu’s preparation would have been in vain. When she is anxious to say something to save her, she heard Mu Yunyao’s voice coming from the door.
“I have heard that Lord Li is here, and I have come to disturb you. Please forgive me.” Mu Yunyao walked in and saw that Ming Yin was covered with tea stains. She hurriedly went up to check. “Ming Yin, are you burned?”
Hearing Mu Yunyao’s concerned voice, Ming Yin’s eyes immediately turned watery. “Miss, I’m fine. However, I’ve wasted a good tea.” The waste in her words didn’t just refer to the spilled tea, but also the great opportunity she had today.
Mu Yunyao’s eyes showed traces of happiness, “When the tea spilled, we will sprinkle it. It’s fine as long as you’re fine. There’s no need to brood over it. Coincidentally, I have some business with Lord Li, so leave this to me.”
“Yes, Young Miss, This servant will take to leave.” Ming Yin glanced at Mu Yunyao as she withdrew with worry in her heart.
Seeing Mu Yunyao, Li Munian sat back down, “Miss Mu, long time no see. May I ask why you have come to see me?”
Li Yuanyi, who was standing at the side, was completely dumbfounded. He had thought that Ming Yin would already be considered stunning, but after seeing Mu Yunyao, he suddenly felt that he had been too stupid. In front of her eyes, Mu Yunyao is wearing a horse face skirt with Tianshui blue color. Her sleeves and waist tightened, causing her to appear even more slender. She hadn’t fully grown yet, so she looked like a budding flower. Although she hadn’t reached the most beautiful time, she had a different kind of elegance. You only need to wait patiently for another two years, and then you can wait until the flowers bloom. At that time, I don’t know how breathtaking it would be. If Ming Yin is like a pearl, then Mu Yunyao in front of him is like a bright moon, totally in line with his heart.
“Yes, please be at ease Young Miss. I will definitely be more careful.”
“Right.” Mu Yunyao’s heart sank. The salt merchants wouldn’t spread the news that the salt exchange had gone wrong, but they would definitely think of ways to pave the way.
