Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 160

After Su Qing left, Mu Yunyao lazily leaned back on the soft couch and carefully thought about the expression on Titan's face. During the past half year, Bu Fang and the Nebula Pavilion had earned King Yue over a hundred thousand taels of silver. Although it couldn't be said to improve the situation in the western part of Guangdong, it could at least solve the urgent situation. With the sent batch of ginger tea, logically speaking, he shouldn't have been dissatisfied with himself.

His expression was cold and distant. Could it be that he had secretly investigated the identities of his and his mother?

The more she thought about it, the more Mu Yunyao felt like she couldn't find a clue. It was only when Su Qing came back with the cooked dumplings that she realized it had been a long time. " Earlier, we had agreed with Steward Qin that we would spend the new year together, but now that the master of the brocade garden, Master Ning, has returned, we should discuss this further. You should ask him if he wants to spend the new year with us.

"If you are unwilling, please ask us what is missing. We will take care of it a little."

Inviting King Yue to spend the new year here? It wasn't easy for him to relax a bit. If he was here, it would be hard for anyone to pass this year.

"Mother, Master Ning Si came over in a hurry. He must have his own arrangements. Let's just send him some of the things we need for the new year. It's better if we don't invite him."

"That's fine too, then mother will go down to organize the items and discuss it with Supervisor Qin. If there's anything that's lacking, we can make up for it."

"Alright."

Mu Yunyao brought the dumplings through the side door and saw Steward Qin, who was waiting at the side. "The weather is very cold, why are you waiting here?"

Steward Qin stepped forward and took the box from Mu Yunyao's hands, "I thought that since Miss still hasn't told Jinlan and the others your identity as the Prince, you could only come over by yourself with the box. I came to welcome you."

"Thank you, Supervisor Qin."

"Miss is too polite, the prince is in his study, please follow me."

Yu Heng announced from the entrance, "Mistress, Lady Mu and Supervisor Qin have arrived."

"Come in."

Hearing Yue Wang's cold voice, Mu Yunyao lightly took a breath with a smile on her face as she slowly walked into the study.

"Greetings, Master Four."

"No need for formalities." There was a pile of account books on the table, and King Yue put down the account book after hearing that.

Steward Qin opened the box and took out several hot dumplings and dishes, placing them on a table on the side. "Madam Su has prepared so much for me, I'm sure the Prince won't be able to eat it all by himself. Miss has already eaten, why not eat some with me?"

Mu Yunyao hurriedly shook her head. "My mother prepared these for Fourth Master, how can I use them. Besides, my mother is already waiting for me at home to eat." So after the dumplings, it was time for her to leave.

However, it seemed as if Yue Yang did not hear her words, he just walked straight to the table and sat down, picked up his chopsticks and started to eat.

Mu Yunyao's brows twitched, "Then I won't disturb Fourth Master's meal any longer, I'll take my leave first …"

"This dumpling is especially delicious. What's in it?" Yue Yang suddenly said. Mu Yunyao had no choice but to stop and explain, "I put in some winter bamboo shoots and mushrooms. I also used a bamboo knife to chop fresh meat, so it's especially tasty." Her mother specifically wrapped these dumplings for her to eat. In order to make the taste inside pure, she even refined them so that it was unknown how much had been consumed …

It was only then that the stuffing was ready.

Steward Qin left. Only King Yue and Mu Yunyao were left in the room. For a moment, there was silence.

Mu Yunyao was a bit anxious. Her mother was still waiting for her to go back and eat, but this King didn't want her to leave. What did he mean by that?

Yue Yang had finished a whole plate of dumplings and more than half of the side dishes he brought over. Only then did he put down his chopsticks.

Mu Yunyao was slightly happier in her heart. If King Qian could give up after only tasting two dumplings, wouldn't that be a waste of her mother's effort?

"Have you prepared everything for the new year celebration?" Yue Wang looked at Mu Yunyao. She wore a light jade colored dress with the edges of the sleeves rolling. Her skin was as white as jade and she looked like a sprout on a branch.

Although she didn't know why King Yue had the interest to speak, Mu Yunyao couldn't help but reply, "Reporting to Fourth Master, everything has been prepared."

"Is Supervisor Qin ready as well?"

"Before, I didn't know that the Fourth Master was coming to the Tombal Mountain City, so my mother and Steward Qin discussed the New Year together. So everything was prepared in one place, but it's not too troublesome. After I go back …"

"No need." Yue Yang suddenly said.

Mu Yunyao was stunned, "You said there's no need …. I wonder what that means? "

"Since we agreed to spend the new year together, we might as well do it together. Why is there such a need to go through so much trouble?"

Mu Yunyao's heart tightened, but she couldn't show it on the surface. She could only reveal a smile. "That's great. The more people there are, the more lively the New Year will be."

Seeing the smile on her face, the King Ao moved his finger slightly. His expression became colder: "En."

Mu Yunyao's smile stiffened. She was afraid that King Fu would see through her. She could only bow her head in greeting, "Since that's the case, I'll go back and tell mother. Then, I'll take my leave." Without waiting for King Yue's reply, he turned and walked out of the study.

Not long after Mu Yunyao left, Supervisor Qin walked into the study with a face full of smiles. He carefully observed King Yue's expression: "Prince, why did Lady Mu leave in such a hurry?"

"I'm not sure." Yue Yang frowned. Initially, she was still smiling happily, but before he could say anything, she had already turned and left …

Steward Qin chuckled and said, "A girl's face is very thin. Perhaps Miss Mu is a little embarrassed!"

King Yue's eyes flickered slightly. After hearing Steward Qin's explanation, he seriously nodded his head: "Mn." No wonder he was in such a hurry to leave. Before leaving, he lowered his head. It turned out that he was embarrassed.

"Your highness, tomorrow's the new year, I wonder what your plans are?"

"Mu Yunyao just invited me to her home for New Year's. It just so happens that the items are all prepared together, so we don't need to go through all the trouble again."

Lady Mu took the initiative to invite Your Highness? Supervisor Qin felt happier in his heart than if he were to celebrate the new year. He nodded his head and said, "Isn't that so? With so many things prepared together, separating them would indeed be troublesome. It would be more lively with more people. Does Your Highness want to prepare a new year's gift for Lady Mu? After all, it was the new year. During this half a year, Miss Mu was extremely important …

It's hard work, so it's only right for me to give you a year's worth of thanks. "

"Mm. Since Uncle Qin has said so, I'll prepare a copy for her as well."

"Sigh, Lady Mu must be extremely happy." Steward Qin knew that it was already extremely rare, so he didn't say anything more, "Then this old servant will go down and prepare some things."

"Yes." Steward Qin left the study happily and returned to write a letter to Eunuch Cheng. Now that he saw the prince's expression, he had already misunderstood Miss Mu's feelings for him. Since that was the case, he might as well continue to misunderstand.
