Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 526

~ ROB PEOPLE AT NIGHT TO ENJOY THE MOON ~ 

After two days, the news from the Capital finally came over. Yu Wang handed the letter to Mu Yunyao, and his lips swelled with a smile of joy: “Thanks to your reminder, I made people focus on investigating the bank and found some clues.”

Mu Yunyao looked at the contents of the letter, and her eyes moved slightly: “Count the days, even if Jin Wang spends money like flowing water, and should be a large amount of money that has not been exchanged. Can Fourth Master find the whereabouts of those silver taels?”

“Speaking of that, I would like to thank Imperial Aunt.” Yue Wang said with a smile, “After Imperial Aunt learned Jin Wang made people break the wall and flood the city in order to conceal the truth about the salt tax deficit, she was furious and moved Imperial Concubine Zhen. Unexpectedly, the Li family took the opportunity to impeach Imperial Concubine Zhen’s family and put all of Imperial Concubine Zhen’s two brothers in prison. When our people checked the bank, they happened to find these two brothers and took all the remaining silver banknotes.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but brighten her eye. “It’s no wonder Jin Wang’s reaction was so big after hearing that his mother’s family had an accident. It turned out that so much silver was involved. How many silver taels were there in total?”

“Two million and seven hundred thousand taels.” Yue Wang did not expect Jin Wang to be confident to hand over such a large sum of money to Concubine Zhen’s two useless brothers. Perhaps because it was enough to hide people’s eyes and ears, but it is a pity that his intelligence this time is wrong.

“That’s nowhere to find when you step on the iron shoes, and it doesn’t take much time to get there. Fourth Master, I think it’s time for us to return to the Capital.” Mu Yunyao smiled slyly, but now everything was ready, and she only needed the east wind.

Yue Wang nodded. “All right, I will go and talk to Second Imeprial Brother. You will let Si Qin and others help to pack things up.”

“Yes.” When Yue Wang left, Mu Yunyao immediately called Si Qin and others over and told them to pack up and clean up carefully. After a while, she went to Xu Qi’s room.

Xu Qi was stunned when she heard her maid come to report Mu Yunyao’s arrival and quickly asked someone to invite her in. “Greeting, Princess.why did you come here in person? What’s the matter?”

“Elder Sister Xu does not have to be polite. The weather has been good during this period, and the riverbank construction has been extremely smooth. His Royal Highness Yue Wang said we couldn’t help much by staying here. I’ts better to go back to the Capital early and go to the Emperor to be reinstated.”

Xu Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately. “That’s right. You and His Royal Highness Yue Wanghave been away from the Capital for a long time. The Grand Princess Yi De and Lady Huiyi have always missed you.”

“Elder Sister Xu also let people to pack up things. If there is no accident, we will set out to return to the Capital early tomorrow morning.”

“It’s good.”

After chatting for a while, Xu Qi sent Mu Yunyao away, and then she sat on the chair with a sickly expression and couldn’t lift his spirits.

The maid on the side looked at her appearance and was worried: “Miss, this servant had advised you not to come, but you did not give up. You had suffered so much along the way, but His Royal Highness Yue Wang didn’t even see you once, which was really too cold.”

Xu Qi smiled wryly and said: “I thought with the feeling of getting along with me before, His Royal Highness Yue Wang would treat me a little differently, but I didn’t expect that I was nothing in his eyes.”

“Miss, you have a clear mind. Thus, you should understand it better than this servant. Since His Royal Highness Yue Wang indifferent to you, why should you waste your time on him? In the Capital, there are many young talents who want to marry you. Why not find someone who regards the young lady as a treasure?”

“You don’t understand.” Xu Qi pulled out a purse from her sleeves. The craftsmanship was not exquisite, the stitches looked a little rough, and the cloth also looked very old. At first glance, it was known as something many years ago. “Help me pack my things, and we will go back together tomorrow.”

“Yes, Miss.”

At night, Mu Yunyao accompanied the poisonous lady to see what she was purchasing. She didn’t know what this person thought. She bought a bunch of sugar paintings, and she didn’t know what kind of expression she would have when she saw the sugar paintings turn into sugar water tomorrow.

After finally dismissing that person, Mu Yunyao was ready and went to bed. After she freshened up and just took off her shirt, she heard the window was knocked gently three times.

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but open the window and asked with a smile, “I said I won’t eat the sugar painting you bought, but you still don’t give up… Fourth Master?”

Outside the window, Yue Wang was dressed in a long dark-colored shirt, and the moonlight slowly poured down on him like water, making him look more breezy and graceful. “Who did you think it was just now?” In the night, the lines on his face appeared much softer, and his eyes became deeper and deeper as if he could take the human soul in.

Mu Yunyao’s chest trembled slightly: “I… I thought it was the poisonous lady. She often jokes with me like this.”

Yue Wang looked at Mu Yunyao’s outer shirt, stepped on the window, and jumped into the room to help her organize her outer shirt.

After Mu Yunyao found her clothes were disheveled, she wanted to step back. However, Yue Wang grabbed the strap of her clothes, so she could only stand on the spot with a slightly red face. “Fourth Master, we will leave tomorrow. Why are you are not rest earlier tonight?”

Yue Wang did not say a word. After helping Mu Yunyao organize his clothes with a slightly blunt movement, he raised his hand to take the cloak placed on one side, wrapped Mu Yunyao in it, and bent over to carry her out.

Mu Yunyao exclaimed, subconsciously putting her arms around Yue Wang’s neck. “Fourth Master?”

Yue Wang lowered his head and said with a shallow smile, “Shhh, don’t wake people up. I will take you to enjoy the moon.” After that, he jumped directly onto the window sill and flew out of the yard.

Mu Yunyao bit hardly bite her lower lip, her eyes were crystal clear, and there was a wind blowing in her ear, making a flaring sound in the corner of her cloak.

Yue Wang hugged Mu Yunyao out of the yard, gently placed her on the horse’s back, then turned over and sat behind her, flung the reins, and the black horse ran forward quickly.

Mu Yunyao leaned close to Yue Wang, feeling the temperature on his chest, only to feel extremely happy in her heart.

When they arrived at the city gate, the guard had already opened it. “Farewell to Your Royal Highness Yue Wang and Princess Wenxian.”

After out of the city gate, the horses were faster, and the sound of horses’ hoofs became lighter and lighter under the quiet moonlight. The surrounding scenery retreated rapidly, reflecting the stars in the sky, making Mu Yunyao feel that her heart was about to fly.

Mu Yunyao bit hardly bite her lower lip, her eyes were crystal clear, and there was a wind blowing in her ear, making a flaring sound in the corner of her cloak.

After running out for a long time, Yue Wang stopped his horse and carefully hugged down. “Yao’er, I said earlier that I want to take you on horseback, but I have never had a chance. Do you like it today?”

Mu Yunyao’s heart was full of joy, and her eyes were more and more crystal clear. She looked at the surrounding woods, then looked up at the moonlight and jokingly said, “Fourth Master took me here to enjoy the moon?”

Yue Wang took her hand, smiled slightly, and walked forward with her.

Not far after walking, Mu Yunyao heard the sound of the flowing water, bypassing the woods in front, and a quiet lake appeared in front of her.

The lake is vast, and you can’t see the edge at a glance. In the distance, the night sky intersects with the lake, making it appear that the stars are low and everything is quiet. The lake was so far out of sight that it could hardly be distinguished whether it was the night sky or the water’s surface.

    The part where he carries her out the window is duplicated in the text. It looks like you wrote it two different ways and forgot to delete one.
