Chapter 387
Within the Warm Spring Pavilion, the Emperor held a red brush in his hand as he quickly read through the imperial reports.
Below, Mu Yunyao was kneeling in the great hall with her head slightly lowered, a trace of doubt and fear on her face.
Xu Li stood by the emperor's side with his head lowered. He tried his best to keep his breathing down, afraid that the slightest sound would make the emperor unhappy.
Half an hour ago, Miss Mu had been summoned to the Imperial Palace. When the news was transmitted to the emperor, there was no trace of displeasure in his expression, but when Miss Mu entered the Imperial Palace to pay her respects, it was as if the emperor had not heard anything. He allowed her to kneel on the ground and speak for more than an hour.
The number of memorials on the table decreased bit by bit until it was finally closed. Only then did the Emperor raise his head and look at Mu Yunyao who was on the ground. "Stand up."
Mu Yunyao raised her head with a smile on her face. "This humble girl thanks your majesty." However, he didn't move.
The emperor's brows twitched. "What? You're making you rise but aren't rising? Do you think that I've punished you unjustly?"
Mu Yunyao hurriedly shook her head, and her expression was twisted. "Your majesty, you've misunderstood. This humble girl has knelt for a long time, and her legs are extremely numb. I can't get up."
A hint of a smile appeared in the emperor's eyes. "Xu Li, why don't you get someone to help you up?"
"Yes." Xu Li hurriedly commanded his men to help Mu Yunyao up.
Mu Yunyao stood up and couldn't help but sway for a moment. Her legs were numb and numb, but after recovering for a while, they began to hurt as if they were being pricked by needles. She knelt for more than an hour.
The Emperor looked at Mu Yunyao's expression. "Do you know why I called you to enter the palace?"
Mu Yunyao honestly shook her head. "I don't know."
"Someone has joined you."
Mu Yunyao stared with wide eyes, her tone filled with surprise, "Participated in my performance? I am just a commoner. At most, I would just do a little business.
When Mu Yunyao saw that the emperor's expression was still relatively calm, she couldn't help but probingly ask, "Your Majesty, are the masters participating in our Nebula Pavilion's competition for a higher price? Or is it fake for the performance of the performance? "
"Neither."
"None of them? "I only have the two properties, Nebula Market and Nougat Tower. Now that they have only opened their doors for business for a few days, what else can they do?"
The Emperor looked at Mu Yunyao who was frowning as she pondered with a puzzled expression. His eyes carried a trace of a probing gaze as he said, "Participant, you've taken in the hearts of the people and harbored malicious intentions."
Mu Yunyao's eyes widened as if she had received a shock. Her face paled slightly. "Your majesty, you're a true dragon and you're able to see through everything. You'll surely know that I was wronged, right?"
"I know that there are many tea stalls set up, and they sell tea at a very cheap price. They even provide some side dishes for free, and use this to win the hearts of the people and encourage the workers to create trouble at the pier?"
Mu Yunyao creased her brows, her expression suddenly filled with anger. "Your majesty, according to the laws of my Great Tang Dynasty, it's also a crime to frame a commoner, isn't it?"
"Hmm? "From what you have said, you don't want to admit that you have won the hearts of others?" Yes, I ask the emperor to make sure that when we set up the tea stalls, they all choose places where no one sells tea. When we set up the tea stalls, we always choose places where no one sells tea.
If doing something for the poor citizens is just a way to win over the hearts of the people, then the Emperor should dismiss those people as soon as possible so that they wouldn't only know how to join in and not win the hearts of the people. "
"How dare you!" The emperor's face was filled with displeasure. The aura of a person in high position caused others to feel fear from the bottom of their heart.
Mu Yunyao stood up and knelt on the ground. Although she restrained her injustice, her eyes were still filled with stubbornness.
The old man who sold tea was also knocked down, which was why the workers were angered and beat up those people. The owner of the unenviable restaurant found out about this and gave 10 taels of silver to those people who got beaten up. At that time, they themselves admitted that they were wrong, so why didn't they listen to my lord? "
Xu Li broke out in a cold sweat for Mu Yunyao. Miss Mu was really too bold. She didn't even know how to hide her words in front of the Emperor. If she spoke in such a straightforward manner, it would inevitably bring disaster to her.
The Emperor looked at Mu Yunyao and couldn't help but shake his head. "Get up, your temper is exactly the same as your royal sister's all those years ago. "Don't open the tea stand anymore, just focus on managing the Nebula Market and the Avaricious Restaurant." Mu Yunyao did not stand up, but her eyes were filled with confusion. "Your Majesty, could it be that you also think that I run a teahouse to win over people's hearts? Please understand that I just want to make it convenient for the people and provide a bowl of hot tea for those who are truly thirsty. I just want to do the next good deed. I definitely don't want to win over the hearts of others …
"I see."
"I know that there's nothing wrong with you setting up a tea stand."
"If it's right, why don't you continue?" The puzzlement in Mu Yunyao's eyes deepened. "Could it be that it's because the few adults joined in and said that if you don't run the teahouse, you're trying to win over the hearts of others?"
The emperor frowned, "If there is a constant number of participants in the future, even if Yue Yang is implicated by you, will you continue to persevere in your actions?"
After Titan showed his close relationship with Mu Yunyao, he had talked to Grand Princess Yi De about this matter. Although he felt that Mu Yunyao did not have a high background, she was still a rare intelligent person. In the future, when Jun Yu was a prince who enjoyed peace and prosperity, it would be better for him if she had a lower background. Thus, seeing Mu Yunyao's rare temperament …
Even if he wanted to, his royal sister would like it. Thus, she didn't object.
He didn't want her to run a tea stand because he hoped that she would be able to distance herself from trouble. He didn't want her to cause unnecessary trouble just because of a small matter. Mu Yunyao pondered for a moment before slowly nodding her head, "Your majesty, even if someone else were to join us, I would still insist on doing the right thing. I believe that whether it is your highness the Titan King, or also your highness King Yu, or your highness King Jin, they would all make the same choice. My father and mother personally urinated and taught me to differentiate right from wrong, to not be petty, to not be unkind. What I did was not wrong, and it is also beneficial for others, so why did I stop just because of a little suspicion? "
