Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

After Mu Yunyao woke up, Jinqiao reported the news: "Miss, Miss Su is the only concubine in the palace as soon as she is lucky enough to be concubine. Even the concubine Zhen did not have such an honor back then. , Now, the outside is exploding."

Mu Yunyao smiled calmly: "It's not sure whether it's a blessing or a curse, let's just watch. What about Liuliang?"

Soon Liu Liang walked in: "I have seen the master."

"Liu Liang, what happened to the matter you were asked to investigate?"

"Reporting to my master, King Jin doesn't have much property under his name, but in August, shortly after you returned to the capital, he sent two of his aides to Jiangnan and got in touch with the salt merchants in Jiangnan."

"Jiangnan salt merchants?" After the previous salt tax case, Mu Yunyao quietly dispatched some people to join the salt merchants with the help of the salt merchants they secretly bought, and some of them have achieved considerable results.

"Yes, what's more, the subordinates also investigated the news that Su Jin, the second lady of the Su family, and her husband, Yang Lian, have left for the capital. Counting the days, they will arrive in another four or five days. In name, they are here Attending the wedding of Su Qingwu, the eldest son of the Su family, but according to the news from the salt merchant, it seems that there are some problems with the tax payment."

"Yang Lian... I remember that Yang Lian is the Inspectorate of Liangjiang, and the official is the third rank. He can be said to be a great official in the frontier. Without the emperor's will, how could he leave the territory so easily?"

"Yang Lian's performance as an official is quite good. At the end of the official assessment, he won the first-class top grade. The emperor intends to transfer him to Beijing, so he specially decreed to allow him to return to Beijing."

Mu Yunyao reached out and rubbed the center of her brows: "Years ago, because of my mother and I, we were rushing around, and many things were delayed, but now I want to catch them, but I feel that I have nowhere to start."

"Master, just take your time, don't worry."

Mu Yunyao thought about it carefully: "Yang Lian is the procurator of the two rivers, and his relationship with the salt merchants inevitably makes people think of the salt tax. However, there have been one case of salt tax cases just now, and those salt merchants should not be bold. Let's do something about the salt tax again?"

"Wealth and wealth can be found in danger, which is also uncertain." Driven by huge interests, everything can be done.

"Let Qi Ming pay attention to it, and properly mention the eldest prince, King Ling. The power of the Li family is not in vain. Now that Li Mu Nian is the history of salt transportation in Jingling City, it can play some role."

"Yes, miss."

Mu Yunyao took a deep breath: "Su Li and Mrs. Wang confessed that Wen Po, who helped the old lady of the Su family deliver the baby, has a son who stayed behind, and his whereabouts are still unknown. Let people pay attention. If they can be found, they will do anything The price brought him to me, my father had contact with him, I want to know what they said."

"Yes, please don't worry, miss, my subordinates will arrange it immediately."

"Um."

Not long after Liu Liang retreated, Jin Lan walked in and reported: "Miss, His Royal Highness Yue Wang has come down and is waiting in the front yard."

Thinking of King Yue, Mu Yunyao walked to the dressing table, opened the wooden box placed on the table, took off the lying rabbit hairpin stuck on her head and put it in, and then took out the red seal and Afterwards, he wrote a deed to repay the gold ten thousand taels by himself, and threw it directly into the charcoal basin and burned it.

Jin Lan opened her mouth: "Miss, those things..."

Mu Yunyao watched the two pieces of paper turn into fly ash, her eyes against the fire light blinked slightly: "Let's go, go see His Royal Highness King Yue."

King Yue was waiting in the flower hall, when he heard footsteps, he got up and looked at Mu Yunyao: "Yunyao, I heard that Madam is ill, how is the situation now?"

"I have seen His Royal Highness Yue Wang, my mother just accidentally caught a cold for a while, it is not serious, and I am sorry for your highness." Mu Yunyao bowed her knees and saluted, with a slight alienation in her eyebrows and eyes.

Sensing her attitude, King Yue's heart tightened suddenly: "Yun Yao, didn't we agree before..."

Mu Yunyao signaled Jinlan and the others to step back, and went straight to a seat on one side and sat down: "My mother's identity was not disclosed to the public before, but at the Lantern Festival yesterday, Su Li and Wang's had such a quarrel. As soon as it came out, my grandmother had already made up her mind to recognize my mother, and His Royal Highness King Yue and I could only be nieces and uncles."

King Yue's heart ached, and his whole body felt chilly: "Yunyao..."

"Your Highness, heroes are short-tempered and sons and daughters are long-lasting. You are a person who wants to do great things. Don't waste too much time and energy on love." Mu Yunyao looked at King Yue and saw his face turn pale because of his own words. , as if being pierced by a steel needle in my heart, there were bursts of piercing pain, but there are some things that must be difficult to have both. Grandma has been struggling for so many years to find her mother, even for her old man, she can't be so selfish.

King Yue restrained his expression, the warmth in his eyes receded little by little, and returned to the coldness and coldness when he first saw him: "Yunyao, I am here today, besides visiting my wife, I have something to tell you, go The caravan that did business with Yunnu in Beijiang has returned, and the trip took a month and a half, but it has yielded a lot, and it can earn nearly one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Mu Yunyao forcibly suppressed the pain in her heart, and her eyes lit up when she heard these words: "It is the first time to do business in a foreign country, the most important thing is to open up business routes, so the profit is not important, the next step is the most important thing."

King Yue nodded: "That's right, this time the trade route is expanded, and we can sell the salt one after another. That's the big deal."

Mu Yunyao took out a wooden box with her own hands: "Your Highness, there are six million taels of silver inside, which is enough for you to last for a while."

King Yue took the wooden box, opened it and saw the tidy banknotes inside, and moved his fingertips slightly: "You are really generous, aren't you afraid that I will repudiate you?"

Mu Yunyao suddenly smiled: "Although I can't be husband and wife with you for the rest of my life, I'm still your junior. As an uncle who has to do great things, you shouldn't be greedy for my little money, right?"

King Yue smiled and shook his head: "Only you dare to say that six million taels of silver is a little bit. Don't worry, I will definitely not renege on the debt, and I will pay you double."

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness. By the way, Su Jin and Yang Lian are coming to the capital. Do you know the news?"

"Well, I already know that they will arrive in a few days, why do you suddenly care about this?"

"Isn't there any news from the Buxian building? King Jin is involved with the salt merchant, this Yang Lian is also involved with the salt merchant, and they are both involved with the Su family. I always feel that there is a lot to say. Xiuchun The square was destroyed by me, and the Su family was almost trampled on. Logically speaking, King Jin should be in a tight spot right now, but the red envelope he sealed me was 20,000 taels of silver. It's also quite grand, news came from Qi Ming that King Jin still has the ability to let people block the development of Yi Baoxuan, which is unusual no matter how you look at it."

King Yue's expression gradually became dignified: "You have always been sensitive, if you think there is something wrong, nine times out of ten there is something wrong, I will send someone to investigate immediately."
