Chapter 428

Mu Yunyao stood there for nearly two hours, watching as the house was completely demolished and turned into a pile of rubble.

Even though King Yue had helped her block the wind, she was still chilled to the bone after such a long time had passed. Especially her feet, which were full of pain as if needles were pricking them.

"Eunuch Cheng had someone prepare some ginger soup in the front hall. Let's hurry back.

"

"Yes.

" Mu Yunyao turned her head and once again looked at the ruins of the house. Her heart felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

Eunuch Cheng brought a bowl of ginger soup in front of Mu Yunyao and then added a bowl of sugar,

"If Miss feels that the taste is heavy, then add some more sugar. Eating a little more sweet won't make you feel bitter.

"

"Thank you, Eunuch Cheng.

"

After Mu Yunyao finished her ginger soup, she didn't stay any longer and left with Jin Lan and Jin Qiao.

Eunuch Cheng seemed puzzled as he watched the carriage drive off.

"Your highness, why doesn't Miss Mu like those rooms?

"

Yue Yang shook his head:

"Since the houses have already been demolished, the reason doesn't matter anymore.

"Didn't Uncle Cheng want to dig the lotus pond? Let's dig deeper at the place where the house was demolished. It would be great if we could find the spring.

"

"Yes. Your Highness, please be at ease. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, your servant will also find a spring for you.

"

In the carriage, Mu Yunyao leaned on the pillow, and her expression was especially indifferent.

"Miss, what happened to you?

" Mu Yunyao shook her head and didn't say anything, but the thoughts in her heart were churning unevenly. Previously, she didn't know the relationship between her and Princess Yi De, so she only guessed that King Jin ordered someone to kill her in the Residence of Yue because he wanted the King to carry the notoriety of stealing and murdering his brother's concubine. But now, she knew …

She couldn't help but think more about her identity.

The Su Clan had always been supporting Prince Jin from the shadows. Then, when Prince Jin killed him, did he know about the relationship between her and Grand Princess Yi?

Mu Yunyao raised a hand to rub between her eyebrows. She originally thought that after finding out her mother's true identity, the matter would become simple, but now it seemed that there were still many things that were difficult to explain.

In her previous life, she and her mother were sold to the Zhang Clan, but was secretly manipulated by the Su Clan?

Had she successfully entered the Jin palace through her own scheme, or had Prince Jin done it on purpose after knowing her true identity?

She had become Prince Jin's concubine, and had been killed in the Residence of Yue. If Prince Jin didn't know of her identity, it would only be throwing a stain on Yue Yang's reputation. If Prince Jin knew of her identity, he would definitely notify Grand Princess Yi De after her death.

Judging from the Grand Princess's feelings for her mother, even if she valued him more, and saw the miserable state he was in when he died, she would still lose her rationality. She might even even destroy the Battle King to avenge her …

The truth was confusing, leaving her at a loss on what to do.

Jin Lan interrupted Mu Yunyao's thoughts.

"Miss, we're home.

"

Mu Yunyao opened her eyes. The deep look in her eyes instantly became clear and bright. No matter what it was, she was certain that this life was completely different from the previous one. She would not fall into the schemes of the Su Family and the Jin King.

Soon enough, the Emperor entered the palace to tell the Emperor about the porridge during the new year. When the Emperor heard that Grand Princess Yi De had also donated two taels of silver, he immediately nodded in agreement. Previously, when the people of the capital discussed the rice porridge with the citizens of Ziling City, the officials also basked in the glow. Now that they also had the opportunity to participate, the officials within the capital were unwilling to miss out on it. When they found out that the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi had both donated silver taels …

They discussed how much it would be appropriate to donate in private. There are many ways to donate silver taels. If you donate too much, you will feel like you are being corrupt and taking bribes. If you donate too little and appear to be stingy and don't support doing good deeds, the higher positions are better.

The number of donations could not be too small, nor could it be looked down upon by his colleagues, nor could it be too much to offend Shangguan. Since it was King Yu who proposed the new year's feast, the Emperor handed over the matter to him to manage, causing King Yu and King Jin to hurriedly rush to the palace. King Yu, on the other hand, was extremely happy, so he waited for King Yue to leave the palace before asking,

"Fourth Brother, what do you need help with?

If you say so, I am bound to do it.

"

"Thank you, second royal brother. If you need anything, you'll definitely ask for it.

"

King Yu nodded and accompanied King Yue out. At the same time, he asked curiously:

"I heard that Fourth Brother wants to repair the mansion?

"

King Yue's expression did not change.

"Where did Second Imperial Brother hear that?

" There are quite a few officials living around your residence. Many people were startled to hear the sound of your manor being demolished. I also heard that Miss Mu seems to have gone to your manor to visit?

" King Yu's eyes were full of mockery,

"Speaking of which, Fourth Brother, you should have gotten married a long time ago. Take a look at Little Sister Huai Yang.

"

"She's going to be married in the next year.

"

"No rush.

"

King Yu patted him on the shoulder.

"You better be careful. Miss Mu's identity is no longer the same as it was in the past. I heard that there are many people secretly inquiring about her.

"

Not only did Mu Yunyao have to be regarded as a granddaughter by Grand Princess Yi De, she also had access to the neon city gate and the two main gates leading to her fortune. Furthermore, she had a very pretty and refined appearance, so it was hard to tell how many people had secretly thought of her.

Hearing this, King Yue furrowed his brows, his tone carrying an indescribable coldness.

"Who are you all?

"

"Ah, who is everything?

" King Yu didn't understand what King Yue Yang meant, but after seeing his murderous look, he suddenly realized who Mu Yunyao was looking for.

"Cough cough …

" Fourth Brother, don't be impatient. They are just inquiring and inquiring, yet they have no specific information …

There's no rush.

"

Yue Yang mounted his horse and cupped his hands as he bowed to King Yu.

"Second royal brother, take your time. I have some matters to attend to so I'll be leaving first.

" Since King Yu was unwilling to share, he would send someone to investigate.

He had just said those words casually a moment ago, and never expected that Fourth Brother would actually be so serious, hoping that the people who were scheming in the dark to restrain themselves. Otherwise, if they were targeted by King Yue, they would become the next Su Family.

Why do I feel like I'm a little unkind … It must be an illusion. He was just reminding his fourth brother out of goodwill. He didn't do anything wrong! Yes, that's it! After King Yue returned to his mansion, he told Yu Heng to investigate if anyone had set their eyes on Mu Yunyao. Coincidentally, when Eunuch Cheng heard this, he was so angry that his eyes were wide open,

"Prince, this daughter of mine is begging you. Miss Mu is so good-looking, has a gentle nature, has broad vision, and knows how to earn silver.

No matter where you put it, it would always be extremely popular.

" Yue Yang's expression became even more solemn. After telling Yu Heng and Eunuch Cheng to retreat, he took out a wooden box from a drawer. Inside the box was a blue cloth and on the cloth were twelve special looking Pearl of Life.
