Chapter 550
"Uncle, you are a true dragon. No matter where you go, you will feel the true aura of the True Dragon. Even if I don't announce it, it will be discovered very soon.
"
"Haha.
" The Emperor couldn't hold back his laughter. He clearly knew that Mu Yunyao was deliberately flattering him, but the words that came out of her mouth was exceptionally pleasing to the ears. The emperor and Grand Princess Yide entered the garden, and just as they entered, they felt a cool breeze blowing against them, bringing with it a sense of surprise. As they walked forward, they suddenly heard the sound of flowing water.
The majority of the garden was built on the water and was in full bloom during the summer. The dark green lotus leaves swayed in the wind and the pavilions in the distance looked as if they were built on top of a lotus pond.
The Grand Princess Yi De let out a sigh of amazement.
"This garden really was built quite well.
"
Mu Yunyao led the way as she followed the stairs to pass through the lush lotus pond and headed towards the source of the sound of flowing water. After passing the fake mountain in the middle of the lotus pond, numerous exquisite small pavilions appeared at the end. The pavilion was surrounded by a variety of flowers, many of them gorgeous and charming.
"Uncle, grandma, what we want to drink is fruit tea. While enjoying the tea, we also want to enjoy the flowers.
"
The wind blew over the lotus pond, filling the courtyard with fragrance. The Emperor looked around at the scenery, and his mind gradually relaxed. The color of the flower fruit tea was much more gorgeous than normal tea leaves, and among them, there were also carefully selected, dried flowers. As the hot water was poured into the cup, the flower petals began to stretch, and even if one didn't use any skills in brewing tea, it still looked exceptionally pleasing to watch.
Mu.
Mu Yunyao brought the teacup to the table's edge,
"Uncle, grandpa and grandma, quickly try it. Is there anything you want to improve on?
"
The emperor opened the cup and slightly shook the water in it. A few bright red petals of a snow plum blossom moved along with the water. The stamen of the plum blossoms could be clearly seen as well,
"Putting aside the taste, just the quality of this tea is extraordinary.
"
Mu Yunyao's eyes lit up,
"With uncle, grandfather, and grandmother supporting me, coupled with the good looks of the flower fruit tea, even if the taste is not satisfactory, it would still be enough to make the other wives and misses rush in like a flock of ducks.
" Grand Princess Yi De pointed at Mu Yunyao and said with a smile,
"I really don't know who this girl's personality is, but if you were talking about shrewdness, she would usually speak in a straightforward manner without thinking. But if you're talking about idiocy, it's enough to take into account the thoughts of all the capital's madams and misses. However, this …
"Well calculated, once you earn some silver taels from the flower tea, don't forget to send it over to me and the emperor as soon as possible.
"
"Yes, Grandmother, don't worry. I will never forget it.
" Mu Yunyao smiled widely,
"Grandfather and Grandmother, how about we quickly have a taste?
"
The emperor lifted the teacup and took a sniff. The plum blossoms' fragrance was cool and the fruits' flavor was sweet. The two completely different flavors mixed together made one feel refreshed after drinking it, but also gave one an endless aftertaste.
"Not bad.
"
The wind blew and the fragrance of the flowers filled the air around the pavilion. The smell was not too strong, but it was especially soothing.
The emperor stood by the window, holding a pot of tea in his hand as he looked at the path at the end of the lotus pond. There were clumps of green bamboo planted on the side of the road, and beside it, a waterfall was flowing down.
"This place is completely devoid of any noise and traffic. It doesn't seem to be in the capital at all. It is indeed a good place to amuse ourselves. No wonder the business of Envy Pavilion is so popular.
"
"Uncle, grandpa likes the scenery here. In the future, when you have nothing to do, you can come here to drink some tea and enjoy the scenery. In any case, this is only a few steps away.
"
"Alright.
"
Within the imperial palace, Prince Jin stood at the foot of the steps of the grand hall, covered in dust and dust.
The attendant stepped forward and said carefully,
"Your Highness, the emperor has followed Grand Princess Yi De out of the palace. I don't know when he'll return. If not, why don't Your Highness pay a visit to the imperial concubine first?
"
Prince Jin's expression was gentle as he replied,
"Alright, thank you for your reminder, eunuch.
"
In the imperial harem, when she heard Prince Jin had come to pay his respects, she rushed out to greet him,
"Jun Jin, you're finally back. Come in quickly and take a seat.
"
Prince Jin followed behind her into the hall,
"Your son greets mufei.
"
"Quickly get up,
" These days, Consort Zhen was already panicking and at a loss. Her background was low, and in the early days of her life as a palace maid, she had suffered a lot as she served the master. After being favored by the emperor, her first thought was to develop her family and not allow others to humiliate her.
Li Jun, who knew that in the blink of an eye, all her efforts had been wasted. She had experienced what it meant to be a companion of a king or a companion of a tiger.
"Have you heard about your two uncles?
"
Prince Jin nodded his head with a gloomy expression,
"I already know that it was the men from the Lee family who killed my two uncles.
"
"In the palace, Imperial Concubine Li kept oppressing me, then she attacked your two uncles outside the palace. It's obvious that the King can't sit still any longer, we have to think of a way to save your two uncles and then strike them back.
" Thinking of the grievances she had suffered in the past few days, she felt indignant.
Prince Jin shook his head,
"Mother, please be patient. This matter isn't that simple.
"
"Your two uncles may be a bit arrogant, but they definitely wouldn't dare to kill anyone. The Lee family must be deliberately framing them, and as long as we can find evidence and bring it to the emperor, they will naturally be unable to bear the consequences. Jun Jin, I see that you have a troubled expression on your face. Could it be that Jiang Nan's trip hasn't gone smoothly?
" Prince Jin didn't know how to explain this to his wife. She had been pampered for so many years that his two uncles had long since lost their initial wariness and became arrogant and arrogant. If it weren't for his repeated warnings, they might have already fallen over.
The two of them kept the silver notes that the Jiangnan Salt Merchants had sent to them. They had guaranteed it several times before, but in order to avoid anyone noticing, he had carefully given them some silver notes in exchange for some silver taels. As for the others, he had not expected that something bad would happen to the two not long after he left for Jiangnan.
Right now, the reason the two uncles were questioning was because they had seized another person's property, robbed a commoner's daughter, and beaten and killed someone. They didn't mention the two million silver taels at all, and it was unknown whether it was because they didn't search for it or because the Li family secretly coveted it.
It was a good thing that he managed to earn a lot of fame in Jiangnan. His Imperial Father should not be angered by his two uncles and so he said,
"Mufei, these few days, just tell him that you are sick and don't walk around. I have other plans.
"
When she saw that King Yue was about to leave, she could not help but ask anxiously,
"Then what about your two uncles, are they really unable to help a bunch of them?
"
"I'll think of something else. Mufei, leave it for now.
" Prince Jin was getting impatient, but his tone revealed some impatience. Ju Fei's heart trembled and quickly nodded,
"Alright.
