Chapter 475

There was a smile on King Yue's face:

"I also think that Prince Jin is deliberately showing weakness.

" Mu Yunyao couldn't help but raise a cold smile,

"What a good move to retreat in order to advance. Prince Jin really knows how to grasp the opportunity.

" The emperor knew that when the princes were old, there would inevitably be a struggle, but he did not want to lose his balance in the imperial court. Prince Jin wanted to show weakness. If the King's men were to chase after him and fight fiercely, he would inevitably be forced into submission …

The Emperor thought that suppressing Prince Jin would be too much of a waste. If he wanted Prince Jin to regain his strength, then he could only promote the officials supporting King Jin. The Su family is the best chess piece.

"

King Yue nodded and looked appreciatively at Mu Yunyao:

"Furthermore, many of King Yu's elite officials have been bribed by King Jin to secretly help him with his work. This has caused the situation to spiral out of control and caused royal father to feel even more uneasy.

"

Mu Yunyao's eyes sunk, her voice carrying an indescribable coldness.

"I know …

"That person has always been willing to do anything for the sake of his goal …

"

"Yunyao ….

" Yue Yang looked at her worriedly,

"Who are you talking about? King Jin?

"

Mu Yunyao suddenly came back to her senses.

"It's nothing. Although investigating Jiangnan's salt tax from Yang Lian is a bit easier, he's still a third-grade official in the imperial court. How does Your Highness plan to obtain evidence?

"

"In Yang Lian's official examination this year, he was awarded an upper tier A grade.

"

"The official's performance evaluation?

"

"That's right, the official examiner is Grand Commandant Zou Min. A few days ago, my people found out that Zou Min had secretly accepted bribes and had tampered with the official assessment.

" Yue Wang lightly knocked on the table,

"Let's start with this Zou Min. First let's beat Yang Lian's performance evaluation back to him.

"

Put him in the Ministry of Justice's Prison first.

"

"Board of Justice?

" Mu Yunyao carefully thought about it,

"Your Highness, the Minister of Justice defends the Emperor. You want to use him to uncover this matter?

"

"That's right, although my situation has improved, I am still a prince that is not valued and doted upon by royal father. Only by pushing this matter to the Duke would I be able to make the Jin Emperor lose his power.

"

Mu Yunyao's fingertips trembled.

"Your Highness, although the princes in the court are a bit repulsed by you, they're all related by blood. Have you made your decision yet?

"

Yue Yang turned his head,

"Yunyao, do you think I'm cold-blooded and heartless?

"

"For a man to want to reap any benefits from his life, he must have suffered some losses. When I was unaware of my true identity and thought that I was from the Su family, I showed no mercy to my wife and Su Yuyi. Does Your Highness think that I'm cold-blooded?

"

A smile appeared on the lips of the Winged King, and his gaze on Mu Yunyao was filled with warmth. The two of them were the same person, so they understood each other's choices and practices. They didn't need to say anything, they didn't need to test each other.

After Mu Yunyao and King Yue finished discussing, she felt a little hungry in her stomach. When she looked around, she discovered that she had already been in the study for almost an hour. She hurriedly stood up.

"It's getting late, I should go back.

"

"Eunuch Cheng should be preparing by now. Shall we go back after eating?

"

Mu Yunyao slightly hesitated before craftily blinking her eyes,

"Then I won't be courteous to Fourth Uncle.

"

Yue Yang couldn't help but laugh:

"No need to be courteous. After all, I still owe you a lot of money.

"

He was so scared that the chef could not even cut vegetables.

"Eunuch Cheng, do you think this plate of gold and jade is doing well?

"

Eunuch Cheng looked at him carefully.

"Not bad. Bring it up then. Ah, wait a minute. What dish did you cook for the cook beside you?

"

"This …

" The chef looked at the cinnamon fish in the wok. Could it be that Eunuch Cheng didn't recognize this?

"Eunuch, this is a cinnamon fish …

"

"What squirrel and cinnamon fish? They can't even think of a better name. This is clearly 'Doing more than one son is more than one fortune'. Just say so when the dishes are served.

"

When Yu Yi heard this, he couldn't help but stagger a little,

"Eunuch Cheng, isn't this a little bad?

"

"What's wrong with that?

" The prince was like an iron tree in bloom, and it wasn't easy for him to fall in love with someone. If he missed out on Miss Mu, who knows if he might end up lonely or old in the future.

Yu Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva. This Eunuch Cheng was much stronger than Supervisor Qin. It wasn't easy for Brother Yu Heng.

When the dishes were set up, Eunuch Chen introduced them to Mu Yunyao:

"Miss, the cooking skills of the house's chefs are quite crude. I hope that Miss will not mind, please take a look at this dish … …

"Unbroken emotions …

"

Mu Yunyao looked at the shredded green grass on the table. When did she change her name?

Yue Yang couldn't help but raise his hand to his mouth and cough. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed it in front of Mu Yunyao,

"Have a try, the taste is pretty good.

" It was full of love, so the taste was naturally good.

The smile on Eunuch Cheng's face grew wider.

"Look at this dish, this dish is called 'Dual-Wing Flying' …

"

Mu Yunyao looked at the braised chicken on the plate. A pair of bare wings was made very conspicuous by being placed outside.

"And this one …

" A hundred years is a good time... This was a hall filled with gold and jade...

"Many sons, many blessings …

"

Mu Yunyao suddenly felt that she couldn't bring herself to lower her chopsticks.

Yu Heng and Yu Yi stood guard at the entrance, enduring the laughter with great difficulty.

King Yue could not help but cough dryly again:

"Uncle Cheng, go to the kitchen and urge for some stomach nourishing soup.

"

"Alright, then this old servant will go take a look to see if the white haired old man and his soup have been completed.

"

Mu Yunyao looked at the big table of dishes and couldn't help but laugh while covering her lips.

King Fu secretly let out a breath of relief, it was good that Yun Yao wasn't angry.

The meal was very heartwarming, the cooking skills of the Battlefield King's Mansion's chef were not bad, and when Mu Yunyao left, she ate with satisfaction.

Just as he returned to Qin Fang Yuan, he saw a smiling King Yu.

"Greetings, second uncle.

"

"Yunyao, no need to stand on ceremony. Come, this jade pendant is for you to play with. I still have some pearls in my house, I'll have someone deliver them to you tomorrow.

"

"Then I'll thank Second Uncle.

"

"Hmm, if Aunt Huang asks Min next time …

" Old madam Chu has come to the Princess's Mansion, so you should also remind me in time to pay your respects.

"

"Alright, since I've accepted Second Uncle's gift, I definitely won't forget.

"

Jin Lan walked up to Mu Yunyao and helped her receive the jade pendant. She couldn't help but exclaim in admiration,

"Your Highness King Yu is really good to Miss Min.

"

"Yeah.

" Mu Yunyao withdrew her gaze and went to greet the Grand Princess in her courtyard.

King Yu did not return to his residence after exiting the Qin Fang Garden. Instead, he went to find King Yue.

Just as King Yue had ordered for people to use their connections in secret to expose Zou Min's case of being profane, he heard his subordinate report it to King Yu.

"Didn't second brother go to pay respects to imperial aunt? Why are you back so soon?

"

"Imperial Aunt thought I was being long-winded and didn't keep me for food, but I smell that Fourth Brother's food was extremely fragrant. I wonder if you could give me some to eat?

"

"From the looks of it, second brother should not be in the mood to eat.

" Yue Yang sized up King Yu's expression and thought about it. King Yu drank a mouthful of tea and raised his eyes to look at King Yue:

"Fourth brother, you and I brothers do not have much to hide. There are some things that I have to say directly. You should have already broken off your relationship with Mu Yunyao, right?
