~ MAY THE DEAD REST IN PEACE ~ 

After Yu Wang hastily met with Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao, he quickly rushed back to Linjiang City.

With the assistance of the garrison army of Huai’an City, the flood of water in Yishui City had receded by more than half. Finally, they could enter the city to check out the situation.

Mu Yunyao prepared a lot of medicine ingredients beforehand. While waiting, she carefully made all kinds of pills and gave one to everyone who entered Yishui City, “Although there’s only one pill, it can protect your life during critical moments. I hope you will treat it with caution.”

The soldiers that received the pills were surprised. Although they didn’t know how effective the medicine pills were right now, Mu Yunyao’s cautious and considerate attitude of thinking about them made everyone feel very useful.

Before entering Yishui City, Mu Yunyao had already made many preparations in her heart, but upon seeing the situation within the city, she couldn’t help but turn deathly pale.

Upon seeing the situation in the city, many soldiers vomited with pale faces. Although they had never entered a battlefield before, they had seen blood before. However, when they saw the hell-like scene inside the city, they could not help but feel a wave of uncontrollable nausea in their chests.

Yue Wang, who stood next to Mu Yunyao, felt the sadness in her expression and firmly shook her hand.

Mu Yunyao turned her head and shook it, “I’m fine.”

It was not that she and Yue Wang had not thought of entering Yishui City earlier to see if there were any survivors. However, the number of people she had brought with her was too limited. In addition, Yishui City was full of floods and silt, so people didn’t even have a place to get off their feet, so they had to give up for the time being.

The troopers all had tools to clean up the streets in their hands. After covering their mouths and noses with clothes towels, they all began to clear up the roads in the city silently.

The two rivers poured into Yishui City and submerged the entire city. The flood had retreated at this time, and many people and beasts’ corpses were stranded on the streets. The sky had gotten hot now. After many days, the remains had begun to rot and emit a terrible stench. The stench made one want to puke out all the overnight meals.

Yue Wang clenched his teeth tightly. His eyes were cold and filled with killing intent: “I should really let those people come and see just what kind of evil they have done!”

Mu Yunyao was expressionless, but there were bursts of unspeakable sorrow and anger in her heart. If this was really a natural disaster, then it could be attributed to the cruelty of the heavens, but it was a man-made disaster. The citizens of Yishui City could clearly be alive and well, living a peaceful life. However, because of the people above who fight for power and profit, they destroy everything.

Yu Heng reported, “Master, the tung oil and firewood are ready.”

Yue Wang retracted his gaze and suppressed his anger and grief: “Prepare to clear out the corpses in the city.”

“Yes.”

Corpses were cleaned up and piled up in an empty space in the city, surrounded by firewood sprinkled with tung oil.

Yu Heng wanted to step forward, but he was stopped by Yue Wang. He took the torch from Yu Heng’s hands and walked step by step with a solemn expression. After pausing for a moment, he bent down and lit the firewood.

Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang’s tense back as her eyes reddened slightly. She didn’t care about the mud on the ground and took two steps forward before kneeling down. She clasped her hands and began to recite a Buddhist scripture.

The troopers and commoners behind saw this scene. They didn’t know why, but they felt uncomfortable, as though there was a lump in their throat. They couldn’t help but follow Mu Yunyao and kneel down.

A large amount of black smoke rose into the sky, carrying the peculiar stench of corpses. The smell was very unpleasant, but no one left.

Mu Yunyao clasped her hands together, chanting Buddhist scriptures. The crackling sounds of burning firewood and corpses weren’t loud, but they seemed to be able to attract a person’s attention. After Mu Yunyao finished reciting the Bodhisattva Sutra’s last sentence, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at the raging flames. She bowed down and saluted solemnly, “May the dead rest in peace.”

When the troopers behind him heard this, they could not help but follow him and read out, “May the dead rest in peace!”

“May the dead rest in peace!”

The voice grew louder and louder. Yue Wang stood next to Mu Yunyao and bowed with her, “May the dead rest in peace.”

This hatred was created by the Imperial Family, and it had to be repaid with the imperial blood. He would definitely make Ling Wang and Jin Wang pay the price. Waiting for the fire to extinguish, Yue Wang brought the troopers to collect the ashes and buried them together in a tomb dug ahead of time at the side of the mountain range. There was a stone tablet in front of the grave, but with no words on it yet. After the Yishui City was cleaned up, he will find a way to find the official household registration documents, so the names of the suffering people in the city may be inscribed on them.

It would take more than ten days to clean out Yishui City entirely. For the next few days, every time the corpses of the dead were burned, Yue Wang would personally do it. Mu Yunyao would also kneel down and recite a Buddhist scripture. The troopers would also salute in tacit understanding before repeating the last sentence, “May the dead rest in peace.” After reading this sentence, the pain and sorrow in their heart seemed to have lessened, as if it wasn’t enough to crush the hearts of others completely.

On the third day of cleaning up, the Imperial Physicians rushed to the city one after another. There were already symptoms of plague among the soldiers and commoners. The first victim who died of the plague also appeared in the isolated tent.

Many Imperial Physicians had initially been resistant, but after seeing the situation in Yishui City and hearing the asking for the dead to rest in peace, their expressions couldn’t help but turn solemn and begin to treat the victims attentively.

At the same time, the people of Guancheng in the lower reaches of Yishui City were already starting to make trouble. While officials sent people to appease the people’s emotions, they also rushed to deliver a letter to the Capital.

When the Emperor saw the folded paper, his slightly reddened eyes slowly turned serious, “There are also people in Guancheng who are infected with the plague....”

The officials who heard of this news went to the Palace to seek an audience. They hoped that the Emperor would close Yishui City for the sake of more people and kill all the people in the city.

The Emperor didn’t pay attention to these words. The officials all sat quietly at the Palace entrance, kneeling and begging the Emperor to order Yishui City to be closed. If the Emperor disagreed, they would kneel and not get up for a long time.

Inside the Grand Princess Mansion, Qu Mama reported the matter at the Palace entrance to Grand Princess Yi De.

After hearing this, Grand Princess Yi De couldn’t help but sneer. “Even at this time, Jin Wang still hasn’t given up yet. I didn’t realize before that he had this kind of personality.”

Qu Mama lowered her hands to the side, not daring to speak.

“Junyu should be back soon, right?”

“Yes, they’ve already sent a message, and they’ll definitely be able to return to the Capital tomorrow at noon at the least.”

“When the Emperor ascended the throne, I swore before the tombstones of my Imperial Father and Mother that I would never interfere in the affairs of the Dali Dynasty again. Therefore, Jin Wang’s matter left it for the Emperor to deal with himself. Have the people from the Imperial Harem take action to suppress Imperial Concubine Zhen!”

Qu Mama respectfully acknowledged, “Yes.”

The Emperor had always pitied Imperial Concubine Zen for her humble origin, which was why he had been praising her in the Imperial Harem. But after so many years, no matter how humble her background, she had already developed her influence with the Emperor’s intentional praise. Jin Wang has won many good reputations smoothly and profitably because of Imperial Concubine Zen’s influence, so her contribution is not small. However, from now on, Imperial Concubine Zen is really from humble origins.

~ FEEL IT. MY HEART IS BURNING ~ 

Mu Yunyao was stunned for a moment before her face flushed red. The sadness and sorrow in her heart slowly dissipated, “Fourth Master, you’re getting more and more unruly now.”

“You and I have already decided to spend our lives privately. Naturally, there is no need to abide by those complicated etiquettes.” Looking at Mu Yunyao’s slightly flushed face, Yue Wang felt his heart go soft. After he finished, he was afraid that she would get angry, so he hurriedly added, “Yao’er, do you think I am rash?”

Yue Wang squatted down in front of Mu Yunyao and held her hand with nervousness in his eyes. Ever since he fell in love with Yunyao, he always felt an urge to grab onto something in his heart. After seeing her, Yue Wang wanted to get closer to her. After getting closer, he also wanted to touch her. But after touching her, he felt that he wasn’t intimate enough … This feeling was particularly torturous.

Mu Yunyao saw his straight back and slightly stiff expression due to nervousness and couldn’t help but laugh. “I really didn’t think that the cold-faced and cold-hearted Your Royal Highness Yue would have such a shameless and naughty time?”

Yue Wang held Mu Yunyao’s hand and placed it on his chest, “My heart has always been warm because of you.” As long as he saw Mu Yunyao, his heart was not only warm but also burning hot. It was just that those feelings were too deep, and he was afraid of scaring her, so he didn’t dare speak of it.

Mu Yunyao pursed her lips. Suddenly, she raised her hand and poked Yue Wang between his brows. Her action was exactly the same as when he nudged her before, “You only need to act like this in front of me. You absolutely cannot glib in front of other girls.”

Yue Wang laughed, his eyes brimming with a smile. “Alright.” His heart was filled with Mu Yunyao. How could he have the energy to look at other girls? In addition, no matter how many people there were in front of him, only Yunyao’s color was bright. The kind of color that can light up the darkness. It made him wish he could turn into a moth that would fly at her, cling to her, and never let go of her again.

Seeing his smile, Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but stretch out her hand and nudge him again. No wonder Yue Wang liked to poke her like this. It felt rather good.

After finding the crucial witness, Zhang Li, and finding out that her father hadn’t betrayed her mother, Mu Yunyao resolved the prominent matter in her heart. She only felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

A few days later, Yu Wang arrived with the garrison troops of Huai’an City. When he saw Yue Wang, his eyes were filled with excitement. “Fourth Imperial Brother, it’s great that you’re fine.”

He had already found out from the letter that Yue Wang was safe and sound. But, if he did not see him for himself, he always felt uneasy, and now he can finally let go of his heart.

“Greetings, Second Imperial Brother. Weren’t you in Linjiang City? Why did you come here?”

“I don’t mind leaving for a day or half a day. After seeing that you are safe and sound, I will rode my horse back overnight, so I won’t delay things.”

Mu Yunyao hurriedly let them speak inside the tent before personally brewing tea for the two of them.

When Yue Wang saw the teacup, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, “Yunyao, can I drink the tea now?”

Mu Yunyao smiled as she shook her head, “This cup is Huaguo tea. Since Fourth Master wants to drink tea, it’s best if we wait a little longer.”

Yu Wang looked at the teacup in his hand, quickly opened the lid, and took a sip. He sighed with emotion, “It’s so fragrant. The things here are exquisite. Even in the middle of the mountain, there are still superior tea to drink.”

“Si Qin and the rest brought these tea leaves with them. I only found out about them recently, it was the first time I used them to brew tea, and it was caught by Your Royal Highness Yu Wang coincidentally. The two of you go ahead and chat. I’ll go down and prepare some food for you.”

“Yunyao,” Yue Wang called out to stop Mu Yunyao, “There’s no rush in preparing things. You can sit down and listen to it as well.”

Yu Wang felt Yue Wang’s attitude and secretly sighed in his heart. His Fourth Imperial Brother was really fallen. In the past, when he looked at people, his every glance seemed to contain ice dregs, and even Imperial Father was not an exception. But now, the way Yue Wang looked at Mu Yunyao, his eyes were almost filled with tears. Furthermore, he was speaking softly. If he had talked to Imperial Father with the same softhearted tone, Imperial Father would not have insisted that he be assigned to Western Guangdong.

It is really one thing down and the other. It was really tough to decide to overturn things!

Mu Yunyao didn’t hesitate too much. After hearing Yue Wang’s words, she directly walked over to a nearby chair and sat down.

Yue Wang told Yu Wang about what happened after he came to Jiangnan, and together with the evidence he had hidden, he did not conceal it. “… If Yun Yao hadn’t arrived in time, I’m afraid I would have already lost my life.”

Yu Wang’s eyes were filled with rage, “What about the people who pushed you out to resist the wolves? To actually dare to repay a debt of kindness with an enmity, I must definitely let them have a taste of this experience!”

“Second Imperial Brother, those people are not worth mentioning. How are things handled in Linjiang City?”

“With the documents and confession that Yunyao gave me, I’ve sent people to investigate the other families in Linjiang City. We already know almost everything, but we lack sufficient evidence. However, with the mold of counterfeit official silver in your hand, it can be said that everything is ready.

In fact, this evidence is far from sufficient. After all, there are too few things linked to Jin Wang. However, it was enough for Imperial Father to believe what he had done. Moreover, they had never thought that this would become an ironclad case. As long as Imperial Father believed it, it would be enough.

“What is Second Imperial Brother planning to do?”

“This matter is too big. Even if Imperial Father were to know the truth, I’m afraid Imperial Father would do his best to protect Ling Wang and Jin Wang.”

Yue Wang nodded his head and was not too surprised by the result, “Once the people of the world find out that the princes blew up the iver wall in order to fight for power, causing so many citizens to die in flood … The face and reputation of the Imperial Family would be gone, and the prestige of the Imperial Court definitely drop to its lowest point. Imperial Father could never let that happen.”

Yu Wang turned the teacup in his hand around, “That’s right, this is the most infuriating part. However, although Imperial Father will not announce this matter to the world, he will not let the two of them off the hook lightly, which was worth it.” Those who were powerful also had many frustrations.

Mu Yunyao had already expected such an outcome. After all, compared to ruthlessly punishing Ling Wang and Jin Wang, maintaining the prestige of the Imperial Court was more important. However, it would be difficult for Jin Wang to stand up for the Emperor after this incident with the Emperor’s personality. The Emperor would never choose such a person who did not care about the life and death of the people to inherit the great cause, and there is also a gift prepared by herself. This time, she was determined to end the road for Jin Wang to climb up!

After talking about the evil things, Yu Wang looked a lot more relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face, “The Imperial Physicians sent by Imperial Father will soon arrive in Yishui City. The garrison troops of Huai’an City will stay here. They were the ones who helped clear the roads previously, and now they can stay here and maintain order in Yishui City.”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “Alright. Thank you for your consideration, Second Imperial Brother. Leave the matter here to Yunyao and me. We’ll have to trouble Second Imperial Brother over at Linjiang City.”

Yu Wang stepped forward and patted Yue Wang’s shoulder, “Fourth Imperial Brother gave this credit to me this time. Thus, I will remember this friendship. When you and Yunyao have your wedding, your Second Imperial Sister in law and I will definitely send a generous gift.”

Hearing Yu Wang teases him, Yue Wang could not help but reply: “Second Imperial Brother, you should first marry Miss Min before talking about this.”

~ RELIEVE HEART ILLNESS ~ 

Mu Yunyao’s heart stirred. She had already thought of this kind of result long ago, so she wasn’t surprised to hear it now. “Do you still keep the letter?”

Zhang Li nodded its head, “Because this matter is of great importance, I have been keeping it carefully. If the Princess needs it, this commoner can submit it to you.”

“Mn,” Mu Yunyao nodded. She was even more concerned about the matter regarding her father, “You said that you have good personal relationship with my father. Is that true?”

“This commoner doesn’t dare to deceive the Princess.”

“How much do you know about my father?”

Zhang Li recalled carefully and then said slowly, “I was a few years older than Brother Mu Cheng, so he called me Big Brother Zhang. The two of us did some small business together and knew each other well. Later on, because we had the Su family as our common enemy, we talked about everything.”

“I heard that my father once received the favor from the Su family, so he has always been helping them. Is this true?” Mu Yunyao asked what she thought, and her heart gradually rose.

Zhang Li shook his head, “I understand what Princess meant. I dare to guarantee my life that Brother Mu Cheng truly loves Lady Su and you. Brother Mu Cheng was an orphan and had an exceptionally loyal personality. After being bought and raised by the Su family, he always treated the Su family as his benefactor. But after meeting Lady Su, all his focus was on Lady Su. Realizing that Lady Su’s identity is odd, he did everything possible to investigate the truth, hoping to help Lady Su find her true family members.”

“True family? Could it be that my father doubted the relationship between my mother and the Su family from the very beginning?”

“In the beginning, Brother Mu Cheng was sent by the Su family to approach Madam Su. He was strictly ordered to marry her and then arranged for Madam Li to become Lady Su’s mother-in-law. She tried all kinds of hardships on Lady Su and even secretly harmed her. Brother Mu Cheng occasionally heard gossip from Lady Su’s adoptive parents that Lady Su was possibly the daughter of the Su family. From that time on, he started to investigate the true identity of Lady Su. After all, if Lady Su was really the daughter of the Old Madam of the Su family, she should be heavily protected like Su Jin. How could they just let her drift outside and let a subordinate approach and marry her?”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head and let her heart down a little. What she was worried about the most was hearing her father had used her mother from the start without even the slightest bit of true love. Now that she listens to Zhang Li’s statement, it at least proves that her mother had not liked the wrong person. “Afterwards, what news did my father find out and investigate?”

“Brother Mucheng told me about these things later. When Brother Mucheng and I first met, we didn’t know each other’s true identities. We got to know each other better and deeper later. After the Su family noticed that he had different intentions, they persecuted him. I saved his life twice, and only then did I know about his relationship with Lady Su. I showed him the things my mother had left behind. After he finished reading them, he was furious. He wanted to use these things to seek justice for Lady Su. Unexpectedly, before he could take any action, he was discovered by the Su family. In his haste, he only left a handwritten letter. After that … I lost the news …

Until someone scooped him out of the river.”

Zhang Li sighed deeply, and even his eyes flushed involuntarily. Mu Cheng had also helped him many times before and could be said to be his first-ever close friend after becoming an adult. He still felt heartbroken that he was suddenly killed by someone. It was fortunate that his daughter is promising and has the ability to help him get justice.

Mu Yunyao hurriedly raised her head, “You said that my father left a handwritten letter behind. Do you know where it is now?”

“It was also carefully kept by me. I can submit it to the Princess.”

“Where did you hide these things?”

“In a deserted house in the Capital, wrapped in kraft paper, I placed it behind a wooden box and buried it deep in the ground.”

Mu Yunyao was quite surprised, “You’re quite cautious.”


Zhang Li forced a smile. “If I hadn’t been cautious, I probably would have died a long time ago.”

“When you heard that I was here, why didn’t you want to tell me the truth and instead secretly leave?”

“I was scared. Ever since the Su family found out that I wasn’t dead, they had been sending people look for me secretly. I don’t know how many times I have escaped the pursuit before I could live safely until now. I am afraid that the Princess will be angry with me. People are selfish, and no one wants to die if they can live. I saw that the Princess had been acknowledged by Grand Princess Yi De, and the Lady Su’s identity also had been made known to the world, so Brother Mu Cheng’s wish had been fulfilled. I thought that even if I didn’t tell you about this matter, it wouldn’t have much impact, so....”

Mu Yunyao saw the calmness in his eyes and reluctantly believed his explanation, “I got it. Being able to keep those letters, I am grateful. It will be of great use to me. I’m not a person who doesn’t differentiate right from wrong. You and my father are inseparable friends. I won’t kill you as long as you are guiltless and innocent. You can live in peace of mind in the camp. I will let someone protect your safety. After we return to the Capital, you will hand over the evidence to Shuntian Manor. I still need you as a witness to testify.”

“Princess, this commoner is just an ordinary people. I’m afraid I can’t defeat the Su family.”

“Right now, the Su family has already become a dog that has lost its home. Moreover, you already know that I’m the granddaughter of Grand Princess Yi De. Could it be that the Grand Princess’s estate is still unable to resist a Su family?”

“I will do as the Princess say.”

As Zhang Li was taken away, Mu Yunyao sat on the chair in a daze.

Yue Wang stepped forward and held her hand. “Yunyao, are you alright?”

Mu Yunyao raised her head and gently leaned on his body. “Nothing much. The matter that had been hanging in my heart settled down suddenly. Thus, while I heaved a sigh of relief, I also felt an indescribable tiredness.”

“Are you worried that your father was assigned by the Su family from the beginning to the end and afraid that he would harm Madam Su?” Yue Wang gently placed his hand on her shoulder.

Mu Yunyao nodded. “That’s right, whenever Mother mentions Father, the warm smile on her face is always enough to make people feel envious. I don’t want Mother to be sad, and I don’t want to ruin the biggest support in her heart. Fortunately … Father did not let Mother down.”

“Yes.”

Only after a long while did Mu Yunyao recover from her shock. “Unexpectedly, after searching for so long and not finding any traces of Zhang Li, we actually met each other here.”

“Yes, it seems that God didn’t like what the Su family did, so he directly sent such a witness to us.”

Mu Yunyao nodded her head. “Fourth Master, when we return to the Capital, let’s go to Baohua Temple to burn some incense.”

“Weren’t you not fond of doing these things before?”

“The more I experience, the more reverence I have in my heart. I am very grateful to the heavens for giving me a safe and smooth life” In her previous life, ever since her father had passed away, every day had been dark in her life, so dark that she felt like living was torture. Perhaps the experiences from her previous life were too miserable. After she was rebirth, although there were setbacks, it was all successfully resolved. Perhaps, this was the protection of the heavens for her.

“Alright, after you settle all these issues, I’ll accompany you wherever you want to go.” Yue Wang bent down and gently kissed the top of her hair.

~ WITNESS COMES ~ 

Yue Wang lowered his eyes and looked over: “What’s going on?”

“Reporting to Your Royal Highness, this person just arrived this morning. He suddenly wants to sneak out of the camp and get caught by us now. After that, he struggled endlessly.”

“Where was he placed?”

“General tents.”

Yue Wang turned his head and glanced at Mu Yunyao. Seeing this person sneakily escape from the camp, they initially thought he was isolated due to the epidemic. However, according to the guards, he just arranged to be in a general tent, which meant his body was healthy. Since that’s the case, why did he not stay in the camp and want to leave?

“Raise your head.”

The man was forced to raise his head, but he did not look at Yue Wang, who had been talking to him. Instead, his gaze fell upon Mu Yunyao’s body, and there was an extremely complicated expression in his eyes.

Mu Yunyao slowly walked over, her brows slightly knit together. “Do you know me?”

The man hurriedly shook his head, but his eyes became even more flustered. “I don’t know the Princess.”

Mu Yunyao had a hunch that there was a problem with this person. She turned her head and instructed a guard at the side, “Bring him to His Royal Highness Yue Wang’s tent. I have some things to ask.”

“Yes.”

Inside Yue Wang’s tent, Mu Yunyao was not in a hurry to ask questions. Instead, she sent people to gather information to see who this person was in contact with and what kind of news he had heard, making him leave in a hurry.

Very quickly, Si Qin sent over the news. After she finished reading it, Mu Yunyao’s forehead slightly creased. “Since you’ve been brought here, you know you’ll never have a chance to leave this place unless you make it clear. Now, do you want to explain yourself and avoid physical pain, or do I have to have someone torture you and interrogate you?”

“Princess, please spare my life. This commoner is just a ordinary people.This person wants to leave the camp in a hurry because I want to go to Yishui City to search for my missing relatives. I ask the Princess to let this commoner leave.”

“What’s your name?”

“This commoner’s name is Zhang Li.”

“Zhang Li?” Mu Yunyao looked at the man as thoughts raced through her mind. “The flood in Yishui City has not receded, so your ability to find people alone is limited. Tell me the whereabouts of your family members, and I’ll send someone to help you find them.”

“No … I don’t dare to trouble the Princess. This commoner can go by themselves.” Mu Yunyao coldly laughed, “Family? You have no family for a long time, and what you said just now was a lie you made up in order to leave! You are in good health and have not been infected sick. You don’t have to worry about your own safety if you stay in the camp. Everyday, you will have porridge and fruit, which is definitely better than staying outside to look for food. But you still want to leave, that is to say, the reason is it because of me? Or perhaps it is because the Su family....”

The information on the paper was detailed. This person had to leave after knowing her identity, and when they met afterward, it was clear that it was Yue Yang who was questioning him, but the first thing he did was look at her. That was to say, even if she wasn’t sure that this person had seen her before, at least he knew some information about her and didn’t want her to know. No matter how she thought about it, the Su family was the most likely the reason.

As Mu Yunyao expected, when he heard the words Su family, the man’s strained face suddenly went pale white, without blood’s trace. “You... you... you... How could you....”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes moved. Indeed, she had guessed correctly, he had a relationship with the Su family, and he even knew her!

A person suddenly flashed through her mind. Could this person be the midwife’s son who helped the old Madam of the Su family deliver the baby back then, t that is, the last person to see her father?

“You killed my father, so you’re feel guilty, right?”

“I didn’t!” Zhang Li quickly denied, “I have a close personal relationship with your father. How could I possibly kill him!”

“The Su family had told me and even found evidence. Do you still want to argue?” This person was hiding in Yishui City and was very far away from the Capital. He probably wouldn’t know that the Su family members had already been imprisoned.

“It is the Su family that is deceiving the Princess! Princess, I really didn’t kill Brother Mu Cheng. It was the Su family who killed him!”

“Your words have no basis. Why should I believe you?”

“The Princess already knows that she is the granddaughter of Grand Princess Yi De. In other words, she has nothing to do with the Su family. How could she still believe the words of the Su family?”

After Mu Cheng died, he fled the Capital and hid carefully along the way. It was with great difficulty that he settled down here. Who knew that after just a few days of peace, there would be a flood in Yishui City?

Fortunately, he has good water skills, barely survived the flood, and escaped all the way to this camp. In the beginning, his heart was filled with joy at being able to survive. Afterward, he met a merchant from the Capital who came to the camp to do business. When he heard about Mu Yunyao’s legendary life experience, the more he listened, the more flustered his heart became. This Mu Yunyao was clearly the daughter of Mu Cheng and Su Qing.

Although he knew that Mu Yunyao would not recognize him, he was so guilty that he dared not take risks and wanted to leave quickly. Unexpectedly, as he just said that he was departing from the camp, the guard would take him for interrogation. When he was afraid, he would inevitably look flustered. Thus, the guard kept an eye on him, which attracted Mu Yunyao. If he had known before that Mu Yunyao was here, he would have hidden among the victims with peace of mind. There were so many victims, and Mu Yunyao might not have noticed him.

“The daughter of the Su family saved my mother’s life. To my mother and I, she is a benefactor. I don’t believe them. However, should I believe you, the murderer? The matter is over, so I do not want to hear any more of your excuses. Men, come and drag him down and deal with him. I do not wish to see this person again.”

“Princess, have mercy. Princess....” Seeing that a guard came in and was about to drag him down, he didn’t have time to think about it and shouted, “Princess, the Su family is full of nonsense. The Su family’s old Madam has only one daughter, Su Jin!”

Mu Yunyao raised her hand to signal the guards to go down. Her cold eyes stared at Zhang Li as she asked, “What do you mean by that?”

Zhang Li’s face turned pale. At this time, he could only have saved his life if he told everything he knew, “Princess, you should know that my mother was a midwife of the Old Madam of the Su family. The Eldest Master and Second Master of the Su family were both delivered by my mother, and she was highly regarded by the Old Madam of the Su family. But one day, she returned home in a panic with a large sum of silver taels and arranged for someone to send me away. At that time, I was only seven years old, and I didn’t know what had happened, so I just kept on crying. Afterward, I was drugged and passed out. When I woke up, I was already far away from home. It was hard to go back again, and when I finally got back, my home had already been burnt to ruins. My parents and sister had also lost their lives in the sea of fire.”

“The Su family should be aware of your family’s situation. After you escaped, didn’t they notice it immediately?”

“My mother bought a boy similar to me, so the Su family thought I had also died. Thus, I was able to escape calamity.”

“And after that?”

“Then I remembered something my mother had repeatedly told me before she sent me away to go under the bricks by the well and take out the things she had left behind. She asked me to keep them well and not let anyone know about them. When I took it out, it was a letter. At first, I could not read, so I could not read what was written on the letter. When I thought of what my mother had told me, I dared not ask anyone to look it up. Later on, when I learned to read, I found out why my parents died. She had helped the Old Madam of the Su family fabricate the birth of a daughter. In other words, the daughter that the Su family had claimed lost had never existed from the beginning to the end.”

Incurable Chapter 48 Part 2

Her lonely heart was lifted up, but Mu Wan did not show any emotion. She raised her head, glanced at Liu Qianxiu, and said, “This is what you have to do.”

The corners of Liu Qianxiu’s lips were slightly drawn. He took her hand as she was about to leave, re-circled her in his arms, and asked, “Is it something a fellow Taoist should do or a boyfriend should do?”

Mu Wan thought about this question carefully, and the answer was ready to come out. However, she did not follow the correct answer. She raised her head to look at Liu Qianxiu and said without changing her expression, “Of course, it is what fellow Taoists should do.”

Liu Qianxiu chuckled softly.

Mu Wan’s heart was overwhelmed, and she said with a stern voice, “Is there any problem?”

“No.” Liu Qianxiu took her hand, walked to the dining table, and said, “Let’s eat.”

After dinner, Mu Wan waited for Liu Qianxiu to wash the dishes before being dragged by him to the living room. There was a table lamp on a short table in the living room, on which were also some scattered books. There are Lao Zhuang and the art of war, which were read by Liu Qianxiu. There are also several romance novels mixed in, which are for her to read.

The light was soft, Liu Qianxiu lowered his eyes to read a book, and the outlines of his side face were deep and gentle. She stared at him absent-mindedly, and he noticed her. He raised his eyes to look over, and before she could react, he imprinted a kiss on her lips.

The sandalwood scent on Liu Qianxiu’s body invaded her nasal cavity. She was so familiar that she couldn’t be more familiar with it. His kiss attacked Mu Wan, and her heart pounded against her eardrum. Mu Wan’s face became hot, and her fingers curled up slightly.

Mu Wan felt that she couldn’t go on like this. She didn’t want to forgive Liu Qianxiu so soon. However, looking at their relationship in the past few days, coupled with Liu Qianxiu’s shocking question tonight, Mu Wan felt that their relationship was really like a couple. She clamored for their relationship to be a fellow Taoist, only do double cultivation and no feeling. But in fact, Liu Qianxiu kissed her whenever he wanted to and slept with her whenever he wanted to. Wherever there are fellow Taoists, it is clear that they are boyfriend and girlfriend playing with fellow Taoist’s interests.

Thinking of this, Mu Wan put her arms back on the short table and said earnestly, “I want to go home.”

Liu Qianxiu stared at her. Mu Wan was holding her cheek with one hand. Her long black curly hair was fluffy, her small face was exceptionally white, and her lips were blushing, showing an unspeakable innocence and flirtatiousness.

“What are you going to do at home?” He asked.

When Mu Wan heard it, the feeling just now became more real. She looked at Liu Qianxiu’s gaze and said in a calm tone, “We are just fellow Taoist and only do double cultivation without feeling. I usually sleep at your house because I’m too tired after the double repair, so it’s troublesome to go home again. But it’s still early today, so I can go home and rest.”

The two of them had done it twice on the basketball court in the afternoon, and Mu Wan’s waist still felt like falling apart. Therefore, she did not plan to do it again with Liu Qianxiu. Liu Qianxiu has enough physical strength, but she doesn’t have enough.

After she finished speaking, Liu Qianxiu remained silent. She acted as he acquiesced and got up a few feet from the short table. After standing up, Liu Qianxiu held her hand before she could move her leg.

Mu Wan thought Liu Qianxiu would send her off, so she looked down at him. Unexpectedly, Liu Qianxiu closed the book in his hand and said, “Do you have anything to do at home? If you have nothing to do, watch a movie with me.”

Before Mu Wan could answer, Liu Qianxiu stood up from the carpet. His figure enveloped her, took her by the hand, and went to the study room. The room is more like a small movie theater than a study room. Liu Qianxiu turned on the projector and took Mu Wan to sit on the sofa.

Mu Wan really had nothing to do, and she will boring when she went home. It would be better to watch a movie with Liu Qianxiu here, so she didn’t refuse either. After sitting down, she took the drinks and snacks that Liu Qianxiu handed over and watched the movie while eating.

This movie is a horror movie.

Liu Qianxiu looked at her indifferently, his expression unchanged, and asked calmly, “Aren’t you afraid?”

Taking another look at the projection on the wall as there were heavy ghost images, Mu Wan nodded expressionlessly and said, “Of course.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Qianxiu beside her sighed lightly. She looked at him, thinking he was helpless. Unexpectedly, he raised his eyes, looked at her with dark eyes, and said something.

“I am scared.”

What kind of routine is this?

Because she had watched it before, she knew it as soon as she saw the title. She looked away from the projection on the wall and looked at Liu Qianxiu next to her. Liu Qianxiu watched the movie quietly, and his expression was unchanged.

Her beautiful eyes were slightly narrowed as she lightly licked her lower lip. Liu Qianxiu played a horror movie for her at night. You can imagine what he intends to do.

She watched the movie calmly. The sound effect of the horror film was startled, but Mu Wan looked calm. Less than halfway through, she piled up the things and said, “It’s almost late. I should go.”

Liu Qianxiu looked at her sideways, and Mu Wan looked back at him, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, “I have acted as a female ghost in a horror movie before, and now I can even find a shot in this movie. You wouldn’t think I’m afraid of watching a horror film and won’t go back, right?”

There was even a little pride in her tone.

“You are a doctor, and you’re still afraid of thiss?” Mu Wan asked incredulously. She intuitively felt that Liu Qianxiu was lying to her, but this lie was too shallow, and she couldn’t help but want to expose it.

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu replied and said in a deep voice, “Since you are not afraid, then accompany me to sleep.”

Mu Wan: “…”

Just as she was about to answer, Liu Qianxiu looked at her quietly, lowered his head, and kissed her. The light is reflected on the wall, making Liu Qianxiu’s facial features more profound and charming. His lips are soft, and the corners of Mu Wan’s lips tremble slightly. The kiss broke what she was about to say, and she couldn’t resist it. Her mind was blank, and Liu Qianxiu’s kiss fell again.

He had always been able to touch her thoroughly. Mu Wan’s body was laid flat on the sofa by him. Her body was soft and cold, while his body was firm and hot. As the memory of his body awakened, the sound effect of the horror movie is far inferior to that of Liu Qianxiu’s kiss on her earlobe, which brings a terrifying reaction to her body.

“Liu Qianxiu…I…” Mu Wan’s voice broke.

“Are you tired?” Liu Qianxiu asked.

“Yeah.” Mu Wan responded lazily.

“Then go to rest.” Liu Qianxiu finished speaking and picked her up.

In the end, he got his way.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 503

~ SOMEONE IS MAKING TROUBLE ~ 

The carriage and boats carried the Imperial Physicians towards Yishui City.

The officials’ admonishments notes flew into the Palace like a snowflake In the Imperial Court.

The Emperor seemed to have made up his mind. He didn’t even glance at it as he ordered Xu Li to burn the notes.

Grand Princess Yi De asked people to bring the food and put it in front of the Emperor. “Your Majesty, please eat some food. It is more important to take care of the dragon’s body.”

The Emperor raised his eyes. He no longer had the cold and unyielding attitude when facing the officials. His tired face had traces of unease on it. “Imperial Elder Sister, is Junyue going to be okay?”

Grand Princess Yi De suppressed the worried look and looked up at the gloomy sky outside the hall. “Don’t worry. He’ll be fine, and Yao’er will also be fine as well. They are both good kids, so they will definitely return safely.”

When Yu Wang received the letter from the Capital, he could not help but raise the corners of his lips.

When the personal guard saw his expression, he relaxed slightly. “My Lord, how about Yishui City …”

“Imperial Father has already sent Imperial Physician over. They will arrive in a few days to help control the epidemic in Yishui City.” Yu Wang rubbed the gold medallion that Mu Yunyao had given him. Seeing the gold token as if they saw a monarch. Imperial Aunt felt really loved Yao’er. Fortunately, he had this gold medallion, making it more convenient for him to do things.

With the support of Yu Wang and the secret help of Servant Qin, a camp was built halfway up the mountain.

Food and medicine herbs were being sent up the mountain one after another. News from the outside also continued to come.

Yue Wang leaned against the table, holding the letter in his hand. After reading it, the space between Yue Wang’s eyebrows relaxed slightly, revealing a hint of joy. “Yao’er, Imperial Father sent all of the Imperial Physicians from the imperial hospital over to help stabilize the epidemic in Yishui City.”

Mu Yunyao placed the medicine bowl beside Yue Wang and was very happy when she heard this. “It seems that the Emperor wants to protect Yishui City.”

With Jin Wang around, the officials in the Imperial Court would definitely try their best to persuade the Emperor to forbid Yanshui City from becoming the second Yucheng City. Fortunately, it did not go as planned. Otherwise, they would have to find a way to escape right now, and there would be no time to recuperate.

“The letter said that the prescription you gave has been of great help. Once the plague abates, Imperial Father will definitely heavily reward you.”
Mu Yunyao had given the prescription to Yu Wang and stealthily sent it into the Capital through his hands. She was doing this so that the Emperor could measure it more when he made up his mind.

As the ruler of a nation, Imperial Father ordered Yucheng City gates to be closed, trapping all the citizens within. He looked calm and collected, but his heart must have been in extreme pain. Now that Imperial Father had the chance to suppress the outbreak, no matter what the considerations were, Imperial Father would try to find a way to keep Yishui City. Because once Imperial Father succeeded, the prestige of the Imperial Court would be remarkably boosted. But if they failed, the consequences would be the same as destroying Yishui City.

Mu Yunyao recalled the medicinal formula’s origins, and a faint look of nostalgia flashed in her eyes. “This formula came from the hands of a woman who has extraordinary medical skills. Thus, I don’t dare to claim credit for it.”

This prescription was developed by the poisonous lady. Later, when she taught her medical skills, she gave her the formula and asked her to give it to Jin Wang to take credit. It was a pity that the Jin Emperor gave her away before she could give him the formula. Now when she thinks about it, she is very fortunate. The time came for the poisonous lady to appear closer and closer. If she knew that her prescription had been seized by someone else, would she take the initiative to look for her? That person’s character was the one that couldn’t stand to be taken advantage of the most.

“What is Yao’er thinking?” There was nostalgia on her face, and the smile on her face was exceptionally gentle. It was as if she was missing someone.

“I’m thinking of a friend. Who knows, she might come to find me soon. I’ll introduce you to her then.” Mu Yunyao did not intentionally avoid him. She had already revealed many different things in front of Yue Wang. Yue Wang’s unquestioning attitude made her guard relax a little bit.

Now that they had promised each other, it’s okay to say more.

“Alright.”

After the camp was built, more and more refugees rushed over. Mu Yunyao did not refuse anyone who came. No matter who it was, they would be accepted and settled in. It was just that before entering the camp, they had to go through a doctor’s pulse examination. If they found out they had an epidemic, they needed to live in a separate isolated tent.

Many of the victims found that they needed to be isolated, resist, and even want to turn around and flee.

Mu Yunyao had long since been given the death order. Anyone who entered this campsite wouldn’t be able to leave without permission once they entered, and anyone who didn’t listen to her order would be killed on the spot! Fortunately, there has been no one who insists on leaving until now.

Mu Yunyao looked at the medicine bowl on the table and reminded Yue Wang, “Fourth Master, the medicine has cooled down enough. You can drink now.”

Yue Wang turned his head and stared at the medicine bowl before taking a big gulp. After that, his entire forehead unconsciously creased.

Mu Yunyao chuckled and took out a candied fruit before raising her hand and stuffing it into his mouth.

Mu Yunyao chuckled and took out a candied fruit before raising her hand and stuffing it into his mouth.

After getting along with Yue Wang for the past few days, she discovered that Yue Wang had a lot of little habits. For example, he didn’t like drinking decoctions, so although he wouldn’t show it, he would always stare at it for a while before drinking it, as if that was how he could stop drinking the medicine bowl. For example, although Yue Wang had a cold personality, Yue Wang was exceptionally shy. When he was sheepish, his expression would be meaner than usual. However, his ears would become red.

Get along with him more every day, and love him more deeply. She had never experienced this kind of relationship before, but she felt that it was incomparably sweet and beautiful.

With the candied fruit in his mouth, Yue Wang raised his eyes to look at Mu Yunyao’s smiling face. The tip of his ears had indeed turned red, and the warmth in his eyes gradually melted, transforming into a deep and shallow whirlpool that seemed to be able to pull a person’s mind in.

Mu Yunyao suddenly wanted to reach out and touch his eyes to see if she could extract a star from them. Before her fingertips touched his eyelashes, Si Qin’s voice suddenly rang out outside the tent, “Wang Ye, Princess, someone’s causing a ruckus outside.”

Mu Yunyao abruptly regained her senses and hurriedly retracted her movements. “Fourth Master, rest a well. I’ll take my people to take a look.”

“I’ll go with you.” After recuperating for the past few days, his body had already recovered for the most part.

Mu Yunyao saw Yue Wang could stand up and move quickly without reluctance, so she nodded her head in agreement.

The outskirts of the camp were noisy. Because it was located halfway up the mountain, there weren’t many flat areas where tents could be built. Thus, the campsite gradually extended towards the foot of the hill, and the further you went, the closer you got to the inner of Yishui City.

At this time, a man was detained on the ground, still shouting non-stop: “Let me leave, I want to leave … … Let me go....”

When the guards saw Yue Wang and Mu Yunyao walk over, they immediately bowed and greeted, “Greetings, Your Royal Highness Yue Wang. Greetings, Princess Wenxian.”

Their identities had already spread throughout the camp, so many victims were willing to listen to the arrangements. Even though they were in isolation, they have not resisted desperately. With a prince and princess overseeing the camp, their lives were much more protected.

~  I DON’T DARE TO MURDER THE PRINCE ~ 

Mu Yunyao’s heart filled with joy, but she soon became anxious. “This physical evidence is really very crucial. However, I’m afraid all the craftsmen who made the counterfeit tax silver in Yishui City are probably dead. In addition to that, All the salt merchants were connected to Jin Wang were also killed and leaved only one half-dead Jiang Jin. I am afraid it will be difficult to convict Jin Wang to the crime.”

Thinking about it, those salt merchants were really pitiful. They were taken advantage of by Jin Wang by taking the risk of forging a silver salt tax. Afterward, they thought that they would be safe and worry-free. However, they didn’t expect Jin Wang did not intend to save their lives. That person was narrow-minded. Previously, he had been plotted against by the salt merchant. Now that he had the opportunity to take revenge, he would naturally not miss it...

“Yes, Third Imperial Brother has always been very cautious when he speaks and actions. It can be said that he is like waterproof.Just a salt merchant and a mold for making fake tax silver, it would be hard to accuse a prince. However, I heard that you have secretly set up a plan to deal with this situation, right? I suppose that’s why you’re here.”

Mu Yunyao blinked, purposely trying to be suspenseful. “I did make some arrangements. However, those things can only be implemented when we return to the Capital safely.”

Yue Wang nodded his head: “En, Yao’er, don’t worry. We will definitely return safely.”

After Mu Yunyao wrote the letter and sent it to Yu Wang, the plague in Yishui City suddenly broke out. As of now, there had not been a single prescription developed that was particularly effective against the plague. Every time a disaster occurs, the official in the Imperial Court always talk about the pandemic and change their expressions. Yucheng City is a living example.

Yu Wang’s personal attendant was very anxious, “Shouldn’t we report this matter to the Emperor immediately, Your Royal Highness?”Once the epidemic situation broke out, it was no small matter. Although the flood in Yishui City was severe, there might not be many survivors, but perhaps some of them were still alive. Not to mention that Yue Wang and Princess Wenxian are both in Yishui City.

Yu Wang, on the other hand, looked calm and composed, “There is no need to be anxious. Even if I don’t report to Imperial Father, there will still be people who will be unable to hold themselves back and bring this matter up.”

Just as Yu Wang had expected, a few days later, a swift horse rushed directly into the Capital with the report of an outbreak in Yishui City.

Immediately, people in the Capital were in a state of panic, and there was chaos at the Imperial Court as Officials began to speak up.

“Your Majesty, we should learn the lesson of Yucheng City. We should immediately order the closure of Yishui City to eliminate the epidemic directly.”


“It is nonsense. Yucheng City was located in the northwest, and the surrounding area was sparsely populated. After closing the city gates, they could strictly control people’s movement. However, Yishui City was different. Yishui City is located in Jiangnan and is one of the most prosperous places in the Dali Dynasty. Furthermore, there is plenty of water there. Closing the city gates will not stop the spread of the plague unless you have the ability to directly cut off the flow of Yihe and Lingjiang River directly. Otherwise, closing Yishui City can only be empty talk.”


“Your Majesty, this humble subject believes that although we couldn’t control the water channel, we should prevent the calamity’s victims from leaving Yishui City. After all, there is no way to controthe victims’ movement and whereabouts.The river water harmed the downstream areas at most. If the victims walked around, the plague would spread more widely.”

“Your Majesty, this humble subject believes that the current plan should focus on eliminating the plague by cremation of the infected patients and livestock. This move will eliminate the disease completely, and as long as the epidemic is gone, even if the water channel is uncontrolled, it should not be too severe.

“Your Majesty …”

The Emperor’s eyes were focused on the paper in his hand. After a while, the officials realized that something was wrong, and the noise had subsided. Then the Emperor raised his head and looked at the official who had said he would cremate people to eliminate the epidemic. “Wu Bing, I remember that your son won the first prize in last year martial arts, right? He is a rare talent.”

The official who was named hurriedly stood up and knelt on the ground, unable to figure out the Emperor’s purpose in his heart, “Reporting to the Emperor, last year’s martial arts champion was indeed my son.”

“Mm. Since your son a genius, he should be loyal to the country. I feel that it’s more appropriate to send him to Yishui City to burn the patients and livestock. What do you think?”

As soon as these words came out, the official was drenched in a cold sweat, kowtowed to the Emperor, and pleaded, “Your Majesty, this humble subject only has one son. Please be magnanimous. I beg the Emperor for mercy.”

“Hmm? I ordered him to be an imperial envoy. Couldn’t it be a great honor for him to be entrusted with such an important task? As a court official, don’t you wish to see your son serve me?”

“This humble subject doesn’t dare.This humble subject and the son are willing to sacrifice their lives for the Emperor. However, such a serious outbreak has occurred in Yishui City. I’m afraid it will be difficult to return this time.”

“You don’t want your son to die, but you dare to push my son to a death?” The Emperor’s eyes were cold and ruthless as he looked down on the kneeling official with chill murderous intent.

The official trembled even more violently. “Your Majesty, even if this humble subject had ten thousand guts, I still wouldn’t dare to murder the prince.”

Silence reigned in the hall as the officials kept quiet in fear.

Jin Wang’s eyes trembled slightly, and he subconsciously retracted his finger as he had been keeping his head down. He was right in his guess. The Imperial Father did not express that much hatred towards Yue Wang and even cared for him. Otherwise, he would not be so angry at a single word from an official.

The Emperor paid no more attention to these officials. Instead, he turned his head to Xu Li and said, “Inform the decree to all Imperial Physicians of the Imperial Hospital to enter the Palace immediately. In addition, prepare carriages, horses, boats, and after the Imperial Physicians leave the Palace, send them immediately to Jiangnan’s Yishui City.”

Some officials couldn’t help but retort, “Your Majesty, the disease is hard to control. The Capital is a long way from Yishui City, and by the time the Imperial Physicians arrive, the plague will probably lose control. At that time, it will no longer be a matter of sacrificing the citizens of Yishui City. Your Majesty, please think twice for the people in this country.”

“I have made up my mind, so you don’t need to say more.”

The Imperial Physicians were heralded into the Palace, and the officials were chased out of the Palace. They didn’t want to leave, so they just knelt down in the empty space outside the main hall.

After the Emperor heard this, he ignored it and asked someone to hand over the prescription to the hospital’s head, Han Ping, “Come and take a look. Is this prescription can have an effect on the epidemic?”

The hospital’s head hurriedly took the prescription from Xu Li’s hands. After reading it carefully, he passed it on to other Imperial Physicians behind him. After all the Imperial Physicians finished reading, they began to discuss in hushed tones.

The Emperor did not speak up to interrupt and patiently waited for the result.

Gradually, the voices of the Imperial Physicians grew louder and louder. Some were deep in thought, some were angry, and some were excited. In the end, Han Ping, the head of the Imperial Hospital, replied, “Reporting to Your Majesty, this prescription hasn’t been verified. However, based on our Imperial Physician’s collective discussion, it should be effective for the epidemic disease. As for the specific effect, it is impossible to know now.”

The Emperor’s deep eyes flashed joy: “Well, it’s good to be effective. Since it’s effective, I shall now issue a decree collecting all the medicinal ingredients written on the prescription. All of you will immediately set off for Yishui City in Jiangnan to treat the epidemic victims. I will not give up even the slightest hope of saving the victims. When you leave the Palace, I will send guards to protect your families. Thus, you can go with your hearts at ease.”

Many people paled at these words, but they couldn’t disobey His Majesty’s orders. The Emperor had even especially pointed out their families. There was no room for them to resist, whether it was protection or threat.

~ ONE MOUNTAIN IS HIGHER THAN ANOTHER ~ 

Yue Wang held Mu Yunyao’s hand and put it on his chest. “Yao’er, my selfishness is heavy. I clearly understand that this matter should not involve you, but I am unwilling to let you go just like that. If people who calculated us succeed in this scheme, I’m afraid we would lose our lives here. Would you regret it?”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but raise the corners of her lips as she tilted her head slightly. Her watery eyes unblinkingly stared at him. “If I regret it, would Fourth Master let me go?”

“Nope.”

“Then I will not regret it. Moreover, if people want to scheme against our lives, it depends on whether they have the ability to do so!”

Yue Wang couldn’t help but chuckle, and the starlight twinkled in his eyes. Every time he saw Mu Yunyao’s triumphant appearance, he felt proud from the bottom of his heart. “Who was sent to relieve the disaster this time?”

“His Royal Highness Yu Wang.”

“Second Imperial Brother… With him here, we have a better chance of winning.”

Mu Yunyao nodded and took out the embroidered satchel with the Yuanbao pattern from her sleeve. “Fourth Master, this was found in the cellar of the courtyard behind the behind Linjiang’s Goverment Office. What happened after you came here?”

Mu Yunyao still addressed Yue Wang as Fourth Master, but she no longer addressed him respectfully. Neither of them made it clear, but both of them felt that the title of Fourth Master held a special meaning to them.

Yue Wang’s eyes slightly darkened as he recounted his previous experiences, “Under my Imperial Father’s orders, I came here to investigate the case of the salt tax deficit. However upon arrival, I discovered that the salt tax accounts prepared by the salt transport envoy and the government offices authorities were flawless. Even the amount of tax silver was totally correct, and no trace of a deficit was found. Yet, I felt that the people guarding the tax silver warehouse were especially nervous. Afterward, when no one was looking, I stealthily returned to the warehouse and discovered the so-called tax silver was all made from clay mixed with iron sand. It was just that there was a layer of silver on the outside.”

“The two ingots of tax silver that I found in the pond at Linjiang Garden were taken out of the warehouse by Fourth Master?”

“Yes, many people are watching my every move in Jiangnan. Carrying two taels of silver with me was too eye-catching, so I marked them and placed it in Linjiang Garden. Linjiang Garden was built by Zhou Huai, a salt merchant in Linjiang city, in order to contact salt merchants around the country and please local officials. Many young men and women were raised inside Linjiang Garden and have been carefully trained to use bewitching methods to charm people’s hearts. I wonder how many of them have fallen because of this.”

Mu Yunyao raised her eyebrows slightly. “Fourth Master has the opportunity to hide the fake tax silver in Linjiang Garden. Wouldn’t it be the salt merchant also invited you to Linjiang Garden to entertain you well?”

Yue Wang was taken aback and then slowly smiled: “Yao’er, don’t worry. Regardless of whether it is my body or heart, I am loyal and devoted to you.”

Mu Yunyao pursed her lips and smiled as she secretly snorted in her heart. If Yue Wang had any other intentions, she would have had more lives in her hands.

“They wanted to curry favor with me using those methods, but after discovering that I was unfit to join, they secretly drugged me and locked me up in the cellar where you said. After being locked up, they thought I had no way out, so they relaxed their guard a little, allowing me to gather quite a bit of information. These salt merchants were scared stiff by the salt tax case in Yangzhou City, so they wanted to find a backer to support, and they set their sights on Jin Wang. Worried that Jin Wang disdained to accept them, they pulled him onto a boat first, so in the name of filial piety, they secretly sent salt tax silver to the Capital and handed it over to Jin Wang for use.”

Mu Yunyao suddenly understood in her heart, “No wonder Jin Wang spent so much money before. Since he obtained so much silver for free, naturally, he won’t feel bad.”

“When the salt merchants saw that Jin Wang had accepted them, they became more courageous. They wantonly sold private salt salt in Jiangnan, secretly raising the price of the salt, hoping to earn back the lost silver taels. It’s just that Jin Wang wasn’t the only one stared at this piece of fat of Jiangnan. A. After we let Ling Wang discover the movements of Jin Wang and the salt merchants through Qi Ming, he secretly tried to find a way to expose the matter. In addition, you and I reached out to touch Yang Lian, making the salt merchants even more flustered. So they came up with a fake salt tax account book and a fake salt tax silver.”

Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but sneer, “These people are really audacious.”

“The amount of salt tax silver involved was too enormous. If it were investigated by the Imperial Court, even if it would not be implicated in the nine clans, the three clans would not be able to escape.Anyway, they had already taken the risk once, and with Jin Wang’s strategies supporting them from behind, they felt even more fearless. At first, they just wanted to let the ship transporting salt tax silver sink on the river. After Ling Wang found out, he felt like making this matter bigger, and he made Linjiang City flooded. Later, when the case was revealed, Imperial Father would definitely be furious, and Jin Wang would be scolded by the people over the world.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes were cold. “In order to blow up this matter and target Jin Wang, Ling Wang actually chose to ignore the lives of so many commoners on both sides of Linjiang City. His Royal Highness Ling Wang is truly cold-blooded.”

“I also didn’t expect that Eldest Imperial Brother would be the one to reverse the situation. However, compared to controlling people’s mind, Ling Wang was no match for Jin Wang. A spy had appeared beside him, and had informed Jin Wang about his plan and strategy. Jin Wang took the plan into his own hands and even had schemed against me. He wanted to use Ling Wang’s hand to kill me a and then smash the matter of him blowing up the river wall.”

Mu Yunyao thought about it carefully and was a little puzzled in her heart, “Fourth Master, according to what you said, it’s already been over twenty days since the river broke, but there’s still no news of Ling Wang and Jin Wang making a ruckus. There aren’t even any rumors spreading out ....”

“Because they couldn’t find any evidence against each other. When the riverbank was blown up, there were somthing wrong, and the river waters also were too fierce. Many of Ling Wang and Jin Wang’s men were killed and injured, catching them off guard.”

“This is such a big matter. Isn’t there any useful evidence left?”

Yue Wang smiled slightly. “Of course there is, but I hid it.”

Mu Yunyao stared blankly before opening her eyes wide, “Fourth Master hid it away?” Ling Wang and Jin Wang both lost, but they did not want theYue Wang to profit from this. It is truly a mountain higher than another.

“Well, I actually would like to thank you very much. Before this, you sent Liu Liang to deliver three letters. One of the letters explained your guess and told me to pay attention to the Linjiang riverbank. The other two letters imitated the handwriting of Ling Wang and Jin Wang, respectively, making it easier for me to get the letter from others. After knowing that the salt tax silver was counterfeit, I asked someone to investigate the salt merchant, who was attached to Jin Wang, while seeking out a craftsman who had forged the official silver. There’s a lot of official silver, so much clay and iron sand are needed. I started with private kilns in various places and found some clues, so I came to Yishui City overnight.”

“Could it be that those counterfeit tax silver came from Yishui City?”

“Well, because the matter is too urgent, I didn’t dare delay my arrival here. Using the letter you gave me, I traced an important physical evidence — a mold used to make counterfeit tax silver. This evidance is what Ling Wang has been looking for.”

Incurable Chapter 48 Part 1

It was not easy to soften Liu Qianxiu. When he left the basketball court, it was already dark. Mu Wan was a little exhausted, and she slept all the way. Halfway, Liu Qianxiu went to the supermarket to buy groceries, but she didn’t have the energy to keep up. When she got home, her fatigue eased a little, but her body seemed to fall apart, making her whole being lazy.

After arriving home, Liu Qianxiu took the vegetables to the kitchen. Mu Wan listened to the cat’s meowing and went to the cat room to feed them.

More than two months have passed, and the bodies of the three little ones are getting bigger, with fluffy fur and a round stomach. Under the light, they are like tiny exploding furballs, round, innocent, and cute. After they were full, Mu Wan took the cat stick and sat on the carpet to play with them.

The kittens love to play, and the three little furballs scrambled to catch the funny cat sticks as they danced. The kitten had fun while Zhou Yi, next to her, was lying on the cat climbing frame, watching lazily.

It was past seven o’clock now. Mu Wan turned her head and looked out the window. At the beginning of the lantern festival, a bright moon hung in the sky. Accompanied by the kitten meowing, the atmosphere was peaceful and beautiful.

Life seems to have returned to its former appearance, plain, warm, and fulfilling.

The stars flickered as Mu Wan recalled the bit by bit with Liu Qianxiu over the past few days, and the heartbeat that was initially suspended gradually calmed down. How real life is now, as long as Liu Qianxiu is still by her side, she doesn’t need to be afraid.

After teasing the three little ones for a while, the kittens gradually got tired, some crawled to drink milk, and some went to sleep curled up in the cat nest. There was no more cat meowing, and only the bell on the cat-friendly stick was ringing in the room.

Mu Wan got up and went to the kitchen to find Liu Qianxiu.

As soon as she entered the kitchen, Mu Wan smelled the aroma of the food. There were already three dishes and one soup on the table, which she ordered before returning from the basketball court.

Liu Qianxiu finished cooking and washed his hands now. He stood by the sink, tall and lean, with a clear and beautiful back. At this time, the water from the faucet was flowing quietly. One of his bony hands was washed, while the other held his mobile phone as he talked on the phone.

The water sound was quiet and steady, like a dull drum beat, passing through the weeds bit by bit.

“Well, good.” Finally, the drumbeat stopped as he hung up the call and turned off the faucet. There was no sound in the kitchen anymore. Li Qianxiu raised his eyes, looked out the window, and thousands of lights were lit.

Liu Qianxiu looked up, Mu Wan stood beside him as she sized up at him, and her ink-splashed eyes reflected a refined light. He pressed his hands on the kitchen counter next to her, lowered his head, and then kissed the corner of her lips.

Mu Wan came over because she wanted to hear what he said on the phone. She listened too carefully, so she didn’t have the strength to guard against his kiss. As soon as her lips softened, Liu Qianxiu’s clear breath penetrated. She suddenly regained her senses and raised her eyes to meet Liu Qianxiu’s eyes.

“Are there any jobs?” She eavesdropped intermittently. It’s not even eavesdropping. She listened very openly, so now she could talk to him about the call.

“Well, something happened.” Liu Qianxiu took her hand, turned on the faucet, lowered his eyes, and began to wash her hands.

While Liu Qianxiu washed her hands, Mu Wan asked, “Are you going to Austria?”

“Yes.”

The cold water washed through her palms and fingers. Mu Wan regained her sense a little bit. She lowered her eyes to look at the bubbles in her hands and said faintly. “Oh.”

She didn’t say any more, and he couldn’t see anything in her tone or expression.

After rinsing her hands clean, Liu Qianxiu turned off the faucet and said calmly, “You also come with me.”

Mu Wan’s thin fingers still dropped with water as she looked up at Liu Qianxiu. He looked calm, and after pulling a tissue, he wrapped her palm in his palm and wiped her hand clean slowly.

After wiping it clean, Liu Qianxiu clasped her fingers together, looked down at her, and said in a deep voice, “I will take you wherever I from now on. I will never lie to you again, and I will never leave you again.”

Liu Qianxiu has always had a way of talking about love.

Incurable Chapter 47 Part 2

Mu Wan’s body is easy to soften, but her heart is not easy. She and Liu QianXiu, as they had agreed at the beginning, were fellow Taoists who only practiced double cultivation together and didn’t talk about feelings. Mu Wan is still filming every day. After the day’s work is over, Liu Qianxiu will pick her up. After the Liu family’s affairs were over, he did not immediately return to work at Tang’er Hospital. He was still arranging the reorganization of the head of the Liu family auction group.

The shooting time for the cosmetics advertisement that Li Nan talked about last time was finalized. She will go to the vineyard in a small French town for week-long filming. Li Nan has already helped her get her visa.

After talking with Li Nan on the phone, Mu Wan put away her mobile phone and went to the dressing room to remove her makeup. She finished filming early today, and after changing her costume, she called Liu Qianxiu.

While the game was in progress, a mobile phone rang in the rest area. Liu Qianxiu, holding the basketball, dropped the ball into the basket and made a stop gesture. He walked to the rest area to sit down and picked up the phone.

“Is it over?” Someone next to him passed water, and Liu Qianxiu took a sip.

Someone replaced Liu Qianxiu on the court, and the game continued. Mu Wan heard the sound of basketball slapping from the other end of the phone and asked, “Did you go to play basketball?”

“Yeah.” Liu Qianxiu raised his wrist to check the time. It was only three o’clock in the afternoon. Mu Wan said in the morning that she would end earlier today, but he didn’t expect it to be so early. Picking up things, he said, “I’ll pick you up now.”

“Don’t.” Mu Wan refused and said, “Where are you playing? Send me the address, and I will go over there.”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qianxiu sent the address. After sending it out, he noticed someone standing around him, so he glanced sideways and saw that Mei Yaozhi was staring at him.

Mei Yaozhi also made an appointment with him to play basketball today. Not long after the two arrived, Liu Qianxiu warmed up and shot a ball on the court, and then he heard the ringtone of his mobile phone, so he got off the court.

“Mu Wan’s call?” Mei Yaozhi asked with gloating, “You make people worry about you. She hasn’t forgiven you yet, right?”

“We broke up.” Liu Qianxiu took a sip of water, and his expression was soft.

“What?” The gloating on his face was put away as Mei Yaozhi frowned. It doesn’t matter how the lovers quarrel, but if they break up, it will change the nature.

“Then what are you going to do?” Mei Yaozhi was a little anxious and asked.

Liu Qianxiu glanced at him and said with a calm tone, “I’m chasing her.”

I have to say that Liu Qianxiu’s calm character is quite contagious. After Mei Yaozhi was taken aback for a while, he calmed down. He thought for a while, touched his chin, and wondered, “No, when did you break up? Didn’t you go to my house for dinner yesterday? Didn’t you sleep in the same room? What is this....”

“It’s nothing.” Liu Qianxiu got up. The rapidly spinning basketball came towards him, and he reached out to catch it as he said lightly, “Some little fun.”

Mei Yaozhi: “…”

It’s a little fun again.

When Mu Wan arrived, Liu Qianxiu was in an attacking stance in the court. He has an aloof and cold personality, but he is quite different when on the basketball court. His temperament is still calm and dignified. But when he got the basketball, he was invincible. His tall and straight body flexibly overcame the blocking people as he finally put the basketball into the basket ring. When his body fell down, it was light and slender.

He had been played on the court until Mu Wan arrived, and his hair was already wet. When he looked up at the basket ring, the sweat rolled down on his Adam’s apple, sexy and charming.

He quickly noticed Mu Wan. When he looked back, he saw cold white skin, deep facial features, light brows, and a pair of bottomless black eyes.

He was about to come over, but Mu Wan waved her hand, motioned for him to continue playing, and walked to the rest area to sit down. Liu Qianxiu nodded his head and rejoined the basketball game.

After a basketball game, Mu Wan couldn’t remember how many goals Liu Qianxiu scored. When he finally came over, Mu Wan handed over the towel. Basketball is a high-intensity exercise, but his breathing calmed down when he walked toward the rest area.

After receiving the towel, Liu Qian said, “I will go to the locker room to change clothes.”

He was wearing a white basketball jersey, and the wide jersey wrapped his slender figure, exposing the muscle lines of his arms and calves. Just now, on the basketball court, every time he jumped, Mu Wan could see the tight waist and abdominal muscles under his jersey.

Sports make men more attractive.

Mu Wan’s gaze remained unchanged. She looked up at him and asked, “Is the locker room public?”

“Single.” Liu Qianxiu replied. This arena has a separate locker room for the Four Young Master, Mei, Liu, Huai, and He.

After answering, Liu Qianxiu’s eyes drooped slightly. He looked at the little light in the corner of Mu Wan’s eyes and her rosy lips. His gaze paused and asked, “Do you want to go together?”

Mu Wan didn’t answer, blinked, and giggled.

The separate locker room is not too big, fifty square meters, and the interior design is like a single apartment. There is not only a bathroom but also a relaxing sofa. In addition, it is equipped with a refrigerator and drinks.

Everything is good, but the soundproofing is a bit poor. The shower in the bathroom never stopped, slightly covering up some noise. Mu Wan was drenched all over, and when the matter was over, Liu Qianxiu wiped her clean, took her to the sofa, and sat down.

“I’m going to France this sunday.” Mu Wan sat on the sofa, a little exhausted. She fell into Liu Qianxiu’s arms and said something lazily.

“What are you going to do?” She lay on his lap. Her long hair was moist, making her skin whiter and her lips redder, like a wet deer.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Wan’s bright eyes turned, looked at him brightly, and said, “Are you not going?”

She always thought that this advertisement was arranged by Liu Qianxiu.

Liu Qianxiu stopped the movement of his hand and looked down at her. His long curly eyelashes cast a shadow under his eyelids. Liu Qianxiu’s eyes were shining like water, and he asked in a low voice, “Do you want me to go?”

He threw the question back, and Mu Wan was stunned for a moment.

There was still his temperature left in his body, and in the locker room with the air-conditioning on, it suddenly became hot again. Mu Wan pursed her lips, made an “Oh” seemingly unconcerned, and then fell silent.

After the silence, she was a little unwilling. After thinking for a while, she straightened up and sat cross-legged beside Liu Qianxiu. Her expression was stern, and her eyes were cold, but what she said was hot.

“It’s up to you whether you go or not.” Mu Wan said.

“Anyway, I only soften a little bit now....” Mu Wan used her thumb and index finger to measure the distance by an inch, then shortened it a little bit and continued, “If you don’t do any consolidation, then I might be harden again.”

Before she finished speaking, Liu Qianxiu held her hand, which measured the distance. Liu Qianxiu’s palm was slightly cold, spreading her fingers, and finally, a kiss landed on her palm.

It was like a signal that reached the bottom of her heart at once. Seeing the corner of Liu Qianxiu’s lips, Mu Wan’s heart pounded slightly.

“You…what are you doing?”

Liu Qianxiu did not answer her. Followed the palm of her hand, he kissed her arm and shoulder, finally landing on her lips. The towel wrapped around Mu Wan’s body loosened, and she was pressed under him again.

“I’ll accompany you.” His kiss fell on her earlobe, and her body sank into the sofa bit by bit. She heard him with a hoarse and magnetic voice in her ear and said every word, “But now, you have to soften me first.”

It’s terrible. A person who has little desire for sex is a pain in the neck!

The author has something to say:
Liu Daochang: It’s not that easy to soften me up.

Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 500

~I’M AFRAID THERE WON’T BE MUCH TIME LEFT ~ 

Yue Wang was seriously injured. In addition, he was exhausted for the past few days and fought a battle with the wolf pack. Thus after being excited and happy, he became tired and fell asleep again.

The tent’s construction was built crudely, and the place where Yue Wang lay was temporarily pieced together with wooden boards. Fortunately, the weather had gotten hotter now. If it were winter, the cold would have been able to freeze people to death.

Mu Yunyao waited for Yue Wang to fall asleep before she gently took her hand out from his palm. After carefully helping him cover himself with the blanket, she packed the medicine bowls and walked out of the tent.

Si Qin’s expression was awful, “Miss, those victims are still waiting not too far away. If it weren’t for the guards stopping them, those people would have rushed over to grab the items.”

While Yue Wang was unconscious, she had already heard the whole story from Yu Heng. Towards those victims who repaid the kindness with avenged, she did not have the slightest bit of goodwill towards them: “Where was the woman who reminded us to go to the wolves to save people?”

“She’s there.”

“Go and bring her over. I saw that the child she was holding in her arms was in a critical condition. If he doesn’t get medical treatment in time, I’m afraid he won’t survive. I’d have appreciated her for whatever reason she notified me.”

As for the people who pushed Yue Wang out to fight against the wolves, whether they lived or died had nothing to do with her! Besides, it is already spring. They could not starve to death if they could find some random wild vegetables on the mountain to satisfy their hunger. As for whether the wolves would come back to retaliate, it wasn’t something she could manage.

Saving people for a while, but not for the rest of their lives, no one had the responsibility to ensure their survival.

When the woman was brought over, her expression was very restrained. She tightly hugged the child in her embrace, like a frightened bird.

Mu Yunyao squatted down and tried to check the child’s pulse, but the woman alertly dodged her.

“You don’t have to be afraid. I won’t harm the child in your arms. It’s just that I can see how sick he is. If he doesn’t get medical treatment, his life might be in danger.”

Hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, the woman hesitated awhile before slowly releasing her hand.

Mu Yunyao carefully checked the pulse of the victims, and her expression suddenly turned serious. She turned her head and ordered Si Qin, “Control the victims and prevent anyone from leaving. Let the physicians go and take their pulse. Also, prepare hot water. I want to help this child bathe in acupuncture and moxibustion.”

His pulse was tight, like a bowstring, unshakable, and his body was burning hot. In addition, his lips were blue, and his eyes were slightly yellow … There are symptoms of the plague.

“Yes.”

“Miss, my child....”

“I will do my best to save him, so you don’t need to worry.” Mu Yunyao motioned to Si Qi to take the child over and bring him to a separate camp set aside.

The woman hurriedly followed. However, when she reached the tent’s entrance, her legs suddenly gave way, and she fainted on the ground.

Mu Yunyao ordered people to carry her into the tent as well. It took nearly two hours before she temporarily managed to suppress their illness.

“Liu Liang, I am writing a letter right now. You immediately go to Linjiang City and give it to His Royal Highness Yu Wang, tell him to temporarily not rush to build the road through Yishui City for the time being. In addition, the water channel of Yishui River and the Linjiang River are connected, so let His Royal Highness Yu Wang notified Imperial Court to control the downstream of the water channel strictly. I am worried that the outbreak in Yishui City will become a reality, and the disease will spread to the cities through the water flows downstream.”

“Yes.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart was heavy. After she finished writing the letter, she gave a copy of the prescription to alleviate the epidemic situation to Yu Wang and asked him to send it directly to the Emperor for further study by the Imperial physicians. Afterward, she wrote to Servant Qin and Lady Ding, asking them to gather as many medicinal ingredients as possible and warning them not to drink the river water in the near future. If conditions permit, it is best not to touch it.

The salt tax deficit was not worth mentioning in the face of an outbreak that could affect several cities.

After writing the letter, Mu Yunyao went to see the physicians who treated the victims. When Mu Yunyao saw his worried expression, her heart immediately sank to the extreme. “Doctor, how is it?”

“Reporting to Princess, there are a few people whose condition is extremely similarthose of patients with epidemic diseases. It hasn’t developed yet, so we should be able to control it, but I’m worried that …” the physician said, looking down in the direction of Yishui City under the mountain.

He found out from the victims that there were still places in Yishui City where the flood had not yet subsided. Because of the sudden inundation and the pouring of the Linjiang River and Yihe River, the most low-lying Yishui city is directly submerged. There are not many victims who can escape. Right now, Yishui City had become a dead city with floating corpses everywhere.

Mu Yunyao retracted her gaze, “Our manpower is limited, so it’s not suitable for us currently to enter Yishui City. Before we cure their disease, we shouldn’t let them go to other places. In addition, there are those wild wolves... Wolves generally do not eat carrion, but now that their prey reduced, I fear that they will retreat to Yishui city to look for food after the flood recedes... Let people be more careful. If it doesn’t work, we will hunt the wolves and don’t let the epidemic spread.”

“Yes.”

When Mu Yunyao returned to the tent, Yue Wang had already woken up.

“Fourth Master, Are you awake?”

Yue Wang held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand, letting her sit beside him. “I just heard the commotion outside. Did you found the outbreak?”

“Yes.” Mu Yunyao nodded and spoke with a heavy heart, “Among the victims were with Fourth Master, one of them was the first to get sick, while the others were gradually suffering from symptoms. However, it’s still mild in the early stages, so it’s alright.”

Yue Wang shook his head, holding Mu Yunyao’s hand tighter. “Do you know what happened in Yucheng City six years ago?” After making a promise to Yunyao, he had no time to be happy and had to face the heaviest disaster.

“Of course. I know that six years ago, Yucheng City also suffered a flood. After the disaster, the people were infected with the plague, and not a single one survived. The people in the surrounding cities were in a state of panic and were encouraged to write a joint letter to close the gates of Yucheng. They did not give disaster relief or use medicinal materials, leaving the people in the city without a chance to live.”

Yue Wang’s eyes shook slightly, and there seemed to be a fire in front of him. “What you have heard is the most widely circulated rhetoric now. In fact, the epidemic situation in Yucheng City was not serious back then, and at least tens of thousands of people were safe and sound. However, Yucheng City was rich in good horses and iron-grade weapons. Some people had secretly trained their warhorses, made weapons privately, and sold them to Northern Xinjiang. After the incident was exposed, in order to conceal the crime, they broke the wall and flooded the city. They then lied about the disease outbreak and maliciously encouraging the surrounding people to write a letter, made the entire Yucheng City could be destroyed.”

Mu Yunyao widened her eyes in disbelief, “There’s actually such a thing? Doesn’t the Emperor know?”

“At that time, this matter was extremely implicated, and Imperial Father only found out about it later. After finding out the truth, he flew into a rage and killed all the officials in charge of this matter. However, you still gave away the lives of those people in vain.”

“Is Fourth Master worried that someone might want to to do it again, so that the things in Yucheng City can be repeated here in Yishui City?”

Yue Wang nodded his head slightly. “I have been investigating the evidence of the counterfeiting of salt tax silver to Yishui City, and the second day after I arrived here, the river burst its wall, which is too coincidental.”

Mu Yunyao’s heart trembled, “If Fourth Master’s guess is right, I’m afraid there won’t be much time left.”
