Qin Yufeng paused when he said that, with a leisurely smile tugging at the corner of his mouth as if he was speaking casually. He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea slowly.
"What happened after that?" You Yuecheng could not help but ask.
"It was not settled after that, because it was very troublesome. The building of the teahouse has been perfected in all aspects. It was inconvenient to suddenly build a staircase downstairs. Not only will the original arrangement have to be broken down, but it will have to be redesigned. The customers of the jade shop usually left immediately after choosing goods, and few people will watch it for a long time or wait for tea while watching it. Therefore, it's uneconomical to make such a staircase."
Qin Yufeng gently put down the teacup in his hand and replied with a smile.
"It didn't work out in the end?" You Yuecheng looked at Qin Yufeng appraisingly.
"Yes, we did
In the high palace, the Sixth Princess sat there and looked coldly at the two palace maids who curled up on the floor. She couldn't help feeling angry. She pressed the table with her hand, with a trace of oppressing coldness. Her rosy lips curved slightly. "Who did you tell that I would leave the palace today?"She had just left the palace when Hu Qianyue followed her. The Sixth Princess did not believe that there would be such a coincidence. Hu Qianyue's people could not stay at the palace gate all day long. Furthermore, she had left the palace secretly and had used an ordinary palace maid's token. Then how could she be discovered so quickly?Only a few people in her palace knew that she had sneaked out of the palace, and these two palace maids were the ones of them.The two palace maids had already been scared into a ball and collapsed on the ground. Others might not know what kind of person the Sixth Princess was, but they were very clear th
"My Lady, the little maidservant went to ask about the owner of the shop in the back, but she didn't get any information. The shop assistant's lips were sealed, and all he said was that the owner has never changed. It's still the original owner." After hearing the little maidservant's report, Mo Ye came in and told Mo Xuetong.They did not leave immediately. You Yuecheng was a suspicious person, and their leaving at this moment would arouse his suspicion."The original owner?" Mo Xuetong frowned slightly as her white fingers tapped lightly on the table. "How could that be possible! The Duchess is dead. Is it Sima Lingyun? But he's infamous and it's been said that he does not even have a place to stay. How could he still have such a shop?""My Lady, the little maidservant didn't come back at first because she didn't get the information you had asked for. She waited outside the pharmacy for a while and saw a maidservant holding a lady-like person
Puguang Temple had many worshippers. Some noble madams and ladies in the capital usually came here to burn incense.However, the incident with the second consort of King Yan's Manor last time had sparked bloodshed and a love affair. The holy place of Buddhists had been stained with blood and conspiracy. Then some people felt that this place was not good, so fewer people came here to burn incense, compared to previous years. It was the desolate autumn day.It was late afternoon, near evening. If someone came to burn incense, they would have already left at this time as long as they didn't spend the night here.The horse carriages in front of the gate to the temple disappeared one by one, and only a few carriages were left there. Of course, Feng Yuran's horse carriage did not appear in the parking lot of Puguang Temple so openly, but stopped in the jungle at the foot of the mountain. Then Feng Yuran held Mo Xuetong in his arms and rode through th
In Feng Yulei's heart, Beauty Ling had been his real mother, the mother who had truly given her undivided attention to him and protected him with her life. He had hated the person who had killed Beauty Ling from the bottom of his heart and sworn that if he had the chance to know the truth in the future, he would definitely kill the enemy. Even if this person was the current Empress, it did not matter.However, he did not expect this person to be Imperial Noble Consort Wen, who had always been quiet and gentle. Furthermore, she was his biological mother. How could Feng Yulei accept this? His biological mother had killed Beauty Ling who had been protecting him. Even though Imperial Noble Consort Wen said that she did it all for him, he would not be able to bear it.It was Beauty Ling in his innocent childhood memory that fitted Feng Yulei's image of his mother. She was loving, gentle, and took good care of him. At that time, he was very happy. Although others
In the Buddha hall, Imperial Noble Consort Wen stood there dazedly, holding on to the door frame. Her eyes followed Feng Yulei's figure and watched him leave quickly as if he were avoiding a scourge. Her heart ached and she could not help but shed tears. However, she was determined and soon stopped being sad. She looked around carefully before leaving quietly.Outside the door, a palace maid dressed as a maidservant was waiting there with a lantern in her hand. Mo Xuetong and Feng Yuran saw the dim yellow light going to the back door."Imperial Noble Consort Wen is... is King Yan's birth mother?" Mo Xuetong was shocked too deeply. She stared dazedly at the light that went far away and muttered, "Then, is the Sixth Princess not her daughter?"What happened in the palace was really weird!She had once wondered why Imperial Noble Consort Wen would come out to show her goodwill to the Empress. She had thought that she was looking for a
In the parlor of the backyard, a group of women from the Southern Barbarian Lands were singing and dancing. The dancer in the center wore a light pink dress. The exotic dance dress made her look beautiful and enchanting. With her wink and her faint glance back, she almost had the power to make people crazy. Her twisted waist and hips were extremely charming.Originally, the prince's wives and madams didn't like this kind of dance. Decent legal wives thought that the kind of temptation was superfluous as they hated the skill of seduction. As they thought that there were more or less a few vixens in their manors, no one would appreciate this kind of dance with the purpose of seducing people.However, the dancing girl in the center gave them a different feeling. They didn't find her annoying, and even felt that she was as beautiful as a fairy. The fluttering dress, the waving wide sleeves, and the belt around her slender waist were all showing off her soft bea
The Cloud Fabric was carefully taken over by a palace maid. Before, everyone had only looked at the Cloud Fabric from a distance and was attracted by its bright color. But now when they looked at the fabric carefully, they found that it was much more beautiful. It was a piece of fabric of the same color, but when they stood in a slightly different position, they could see different colors. Moreover, these colors were mixed together into different patterns, which made the whole fabric more beautiful and charming.It was just a piece of cloth, but it had already made people feel so amazed. If they could really wear a dress made of this cloth, how beautiful they would be. As a woman, no one could refuse such a beautiful thing. However, the people present were not ordinary women, and they knew that there were some things that they couldn't afford to get it.Only the prince's wives and princesses in the room deserved to own such a gorgeous and spectacular Cloud
You Yue'e sat on the other side of the Sixth Princess. She was not interested in what the other people were talking about. She shot a glance at the Cloud Fabric and seemed to have thought of something as a bitter smile full of loneliness tugged at her lips. Then, she stared at the Cloud Fabric dazedly. In everyone's eyes, You Yue'e was attracted by the Seven-colored Cloud Fabric.In fact, it was not a big deal. You Yue'e was not the only one who was stunned by the beautiful Cloud Fabric, so no one felt anything unusual. After all, everyone would be envious of the one who owned such a piece of fabric. All the people present were women and could understand each other's minds. It was normal for them to be attracted to such a gorgeous fabric at first sight.The Sixth Princess smiled and said softly, "Third Sister-in-law, I'll re-gift this dress to you. I happened to be ill when you held the birthday party and didn't come out of the palace to celebrate your birt
It was midnight when Feng Yuran came back from the palace that night. Under the light, Mo Xuetong's beautiful face looked pink, which he had been praying for for a long time. Although he was tired and dizzy, he felt relieved.Fortunately, Bai Yihao did not make a desperate bet. That day, he looked calm on the surface, but in fact, he was already sweating on his back.If Bai Yihao had threatened him with Tong'er's life...If, Bai Yihao was determined not to give up...If Bai Yihao wanted to get Tong'er even if he would destroy her...He would really don't know what to do!Fortunately, there were not so many "ifs". Fortunately, Bai Yihao let go in the end. Even though he had already known Bai Yihao's character, he was still very nervous and flustered at that time in that place. Caring too much disturbed the mind. In this life, Tong'er was his weakness, but it was the weakness that he was willing to have.
Looking at the confident Bai Yihao who had a smile in his eyes, Feng Yuran suddenly put on an enchanting smile. He squinted at him and asked, "Tong'er is smart. If she knew that it was your mother who poisoned her mother back then and the poison in Auntie Fang's hands was left by your mother, what would you do?"This was a fatal blow, and Bai Yihao hid it in his heart. He thought that no one would mention it!The smile froze on Bai Yihao's handsome face. For a moment, there was a hint of blood in the corner of his warm eye. He put away the smile on his lip corners and looked at Feng Yuran viciously. "You're really funny. How could that poison have something to do with my mother?"That was the topic he didn't dare to mention. He even felt guilty and his heart was even twisted."It's a strange poison, so it must have come from a strange place. There was no way for an ordinary concubine to get it. Even though Auntie Fang died in the r
Since Yan Kingdom had taken in some remainders of Ding General Manor, the country would definitely become the Qin Kingdom's enemy. Bai Yihao was the commander-in-chief of Yan Kingdom. On the surface, the only person in the Qin Kingdom who could suppress the troops of Ding General Manor was King Xuan, Feng Yuran. In the past, Fu General and King of Xian were on different sides of Ding General Manor. They seemed to be friendly on the surface, but in private, they held each other back.The war drew near. Feng Yuran bid farewell to Mo Xuetong and led the army to the border. It was winter, so it was a little cold. Mo Xuetong stood on a small mountain town outside the city gate and could not help crying with a handkerchief in her hand when she saw the purple general's robe disappear from her sight.Mo Xuetong felt sad and could not hold back her tears when she thought that he had to go to the battle field and could not sleep well. The war was urgent and he had to
Yan Empress heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing Lan Yanwen looking calm, she said politely, "That's right, that's right. I can't stay here any longer. I'll leave this to you." She was still the dignified Empress of the Yan Kingdom."Goodbye, Your Majesty!" Lan Yanwen lowered his head and bowed respectfully, which was no different from his usual attitude. Yan Empress waved her hand with satisfaction, took her people to get on the carriage at the back door and returned to the deep palace.Yan Empress left, surrounded by a large group of people. Lan Yanwen slowly raised his head, and his beautiful eyes were inexplicably deep in the flickering light. He stared at the back of Yan Empress and walked to Princess Royal's body that was lying on the ground, speechless for a moment.The night was very quiet, as if the sound of people's breathing could be heard!After a long time, Lan Yanwen ordered, "Somebody, take Princess Royal Mingzhu out! Alo
It was Yan Empress's voice!In the dark, Mo Xuetong didn't dare to move. She bit her lips and even held her breath, hiding in the rockery. Although it was secluded, Yan Empress came with so many people, and she might find her. If Mo Xuetong fell into her hands, it would be terrible!"Sister Yunruo?" Princess Royal helped Nanny Qin to stand firm under the light. Looking at Yan Empress, who was protected by a group of secret guards and eunuchs, she slowly restored calmness.There was no guard around her, and the only person beside her was Nanny Qin, who knew nothing about martial arts. She was sort of alone now.Mo Xuetong also saw Lan Yanwen hiding in the dark beside Yan Empress. "He came as well?"This small courtyard of the Lan family gathered all kinds of powerful personage unexpectedly. It was quite lively."Sister Mingzhu, it's not easy for you to remember me. Why don't you come to my palace to have a
Seeing that there was something wrong with his expression, the Yan Empress knew that Bai Yihao was still worried. She gave a sweet smile and wrapped her soft arms around Bai Yichen's neck. Her breath was fragrant and she smiled seductively in his ear, "Don't worry. He still thinks that I really want to send some people to the East Palace and have been focusing on investigating the women in the Beauty Gathering Palace. When we succeed in the harem, it will be too late for him to do anything.""The old man won't suspect us, will he?" Bai Yichen paused for a moment and was still a little worried."Don't worry. Even if he senses something is wrong, he can't tell his son. Most of the imperial physicians in the palace are our people. When the right time comes, whichever palace he will die in, it has nothing to do with us!" The Yan Empress smiled as her eyes raked over Bai Yichen's handsome face, and she looked even more charming.However, as the two
With a thud, the memorials to the throne on the table were slammed to the ground, and Emperor Zongwen's face had darkened."Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself." Regardless of the memorials to the throne that were scattered all over the ground, Liu Xi hurriedly turned around to support Emperor Zongwen, who was about to fall down with one hand covering his chest. His usually calm face was filled with anxiety and panic."B*tch, that b*tch, how dare she... deceive me!" Emperor Zongwen's face was purple. He reached out to cover his chest and said a few words with difficulty. As he opened her mouth, he spat a mouthful of blood. Liu Xi only had time to cover his mouth with a handkerchief before he immediately became dispirited and was helped to sit on the throne."Your Majesty, please take care of yourself. Even if you don't look out for yourself, you still have to consider His Highness," Liu Xi persuaded anxiously as he served E
In the dark night, the wind rushed backward and poured into Mo Xuetong's mouth and nose. Her eyes were blurred. Subconsciously, she stretched her arms behind her, held the comer's waist tightly and buried her head deeply in his arms. Then she let out a breath slowly, her nose full of the scent of a familiar man. As she breathed, his scent heavily enveloped her, which made her feel inexplicably relieved and softened.The man gave a little chuckle in her ear, and his warm breath fell on her earlobe, making her itch like a feather. "Tong'er, don't be afraid. It's me!"In the satisfied sigh, she felt that his grip on her body was getting tighter.His voice was mellow and leisurely, like the alcohol that had been brewed for many years and was filled with an intoxicating aura.There was less noise following him. He landed lightly on a horse in front of him. Then Mo Xuetong was turned around and landed steadily in his embrace.
Mo Xuetong did not use the Lan family's horse carriage. There was indeed a horse carriage sent from the Crown Prince's East Palace parked at the entrance. After they got on the horse carriage, Qing Zhu asked, "Miss, how did you know that the person is not the true head of the Lan family?" There was nothing different in air, deportment, or appearance between the man and the head of the Lan family."I am just an orphan daughter of the Lan family. Even if the Lan family values me, there is a limit. Even if I can enter the East Palace in the future and be favored by His Highness, it will still be a matter of the future. The Lan family does not lack beauties in their back courtyard. It is already a great honor for me to send Minister of Public Works to meet me. It is said that Minister of Public Works is the best husband in the hearts of the princesses," Mo Xuetong stated with a faint smile. She took the tea that Qing Zhu poured for her and took a sip before she leisurely re
