Chapter 533
Mu Yunyao paused for a moment before looking at the sky outside.
"Are the tea flowers still blooming in the flower room?
"
"Reporting to Miss, this servant is taking good care of it. The tea flowers are flourishing very well.
"
Mu Yunyao arrived at the flower room. Clusters of flowers were like brocades, and it was exceptionally lively as she squeezed by. She walked in front of a flower crane plume, picked up a pair of scissors and carefully selected the most beautiful tea flowers, cutting them off, then placed them one by one into a small flower basket.
"Because of the delay in going to Jiangnan, I did not go to offer my condolences for Zhang Wan's funeral. Jin Lan, you
Get someone to carefully deliver it to Zhang Wan's grave, and I won't be going there.
"
After all, Zhang Wan was Su Qingwu's wife. The Su Family had just been convicted because of her and her mother, so she personally went to Zhang Wan's grave.
"Yes, miss.
"
After taking care of the flowers in the flower room for a long time, Mu Yunyao finally calmed down from her incessant agitation.
The mystery of Yue Yang's background was too important, and even if it was true, she did not know the reason behind it. Therefore, she decided to keep it a secret, and whether Yue Lao would be able to find anything in the future, it all depended on fate.
The rivers of Jiangnan, Linjiang, and Yi River were very well maintained.
When the Emperor received the report from Qi Yun, he was extremely happy. It just so happened that the birthday of Grand Princess Yi De was coming, and he was determined to celebrate it.
Mu Yunyao followed Grand Princess Yi De to Jade Flower Hall. Just as she sat down, she heard a report of the Emperor's arrival.
"Greetings, your majesty.
"
"Hurry up and dispense with the formalities,
" the Emperor said with a smile.
"Imperial Sis, in the past, your birthday was always out of the capital, so I could only send you some gifts to express my feelings. This time, it wasn't easy to celebrate your birthday in the capital.
"
Grand Princess Yi De shook her head,
"It is just a small birthdate, how can I work for the Emperor? Yao'er and I have already agreed that the day of our birth would be a very ordinary day, without even a banquet.
"
"How can this be?
" The emperor hurriedly objected,
"The royal sister's birthday is a big matter …
"
"I think it's very good,
" Princess Yi De said with a gentle look in her eyes.
"I'm already old, and every year after our birth, we'll be one year older. But according to my thoughts, it's better.
"
The emperor could not help but smile.
"If I can stop my growth after my birthday, then so can I.
"
Mu Yunyao joined in the conversation,
"If that's the case, then long live, long live, long live the Emperor.
"
"Little girl, you're really quick-witted.
" The emperor's smile grew wider. Grand Princess Yi De held onto Mu Yunyao's hand and said with a resolute tone,
"Your Majesty, right now, the flood in Jiangnan is not over yet. You and the other lords are all frugally saving us. Just like Yao'er …
When I take a walk around the streets on the day of my birth, I would be like an ordinary person. I would buy a new set of clothes and eat a bowl of longevity noodles. Wouldn't my happiness be even better?
"
Hearing the concerns of Grand Princess Yi De, the Emperor couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"How about this, on the day of my royal sister's birthday, I will go out of the palace to accompany my royal sister, how about that?
"
"Of course it's good. If I get the company of my royal brother, I will be able to surpass all the other officials and tens of thousands of citizens in congratulating me.
"
When the emperor heard this, his heart felt even heavier. Only after accompanying Grand Princess Yi De to her meal did he reluctantly send her off.
After exiting the palace, Mu Yunyao immediately called over the two taels of silver.
"Six taels, how is the progress on Jiangnan?
" Reporting to his master, the King and Prince Jin were dispatched by the Emperor to Jiangnan to supervise the construction of the riverbank. The King was impetuous, and had always performed well, but His Highness Duke of Jin, even though his arm was injured, still made regular visits to the riverbank to inspect it. He even carefully discovered some loopholes and punished them for using the riverbank to repair it.
The head of the river-workers who built the embankments to amass wealth and extort the people, and he himself took out silver to distribute it to the people who had been affected by the disaster along the coast. Lord Qi's personality was very straightforward. He had already written down all of Prince Jin's actions and sent them to the capital. I believe that they will be sent to the emperor very soon.
"
Mu Yunyao couldn't help but sneer,
"This Prince Jin is good at acting, and his methods in gaining fame are also superb. Since that's the case, then let them do it and spread Prince Jin's reputation.
"
"Mistress, could it be that you want to help Prince Jin?
"
"Help him?
" Mu Yunyao's eyes filled with energy.
"Why would I help him? Doesn't he want to climb up? Then we'll help him stabilize the ladder and let him climb higher. After all, it's easy to fall when you climb higher. If we don't let him stand at the top, how can we let his body be smashed into pieces?
"
His eyes darkened,
"Yes, please be at ease, master. This subordinate will immediately go and do it.
" No matter what Prince Jin had done in the past, he had to pay the price just because he was hated by the young mistress.
"Also, check the silver taels that I told you to arrange. In a few days, it will be the birthday of Grandmother. On that day, Grandmother and the Emperor will both go to the streets and have someone prepare them in advance. We can't allow any mistakes to occur.
"
"Yes, please rest assured master.
"
"Mm, also inform everyone that he is to prepare himself. As long as the Jin Emperor loses his power, the King will definitely not let go of this opportunity to suppress him, and deliver the rewards that we prepared to everyone. This time, we will make sure that he is completely trusted by the King, so that we can guard against the Li Family's plans.
"
"Master, the Li family is powerful. All sorts of families, clans, and powers are complicated. They can be said to have deep roots and complex branches. Could it be that you want to touch the Li family as well?
"
He had fought before, and although he had not succeeded, there must be a connection that others did not know of.
He lowered his head and replied,
"Yes, this subordinate understands.
"
"Mm, it's been hard on you.
"
Waiting for the six taels to leave, Mu Yunyao sat by the window and looked outside at the butterflies fluttering in the flowers. Her eyes gradually became indifferent. After this matter, Prince Jin probably won't have a chance to rise again. When Qi Yun's imperial report entered the capital, the Emperor finished reading the contents of the imperial edict, and the creases on his forehead loosened slightly. Fortunately, Prince Jin had not become crazy, and he still knew how to do things for the common people.
To be able to achieve nothing, it was already rare for him to not create obstacles on the riverbank. The Emperor was comforted by this, and so he waited for the day of the birth of Grand Princess Yi De. After arriving at the imperial court, he changed his clothes and brought Xu Li and some guards with him to Grand Princess Yi's mansion.
