Capítulo 2005: Chapter 2002: Conservative
The cheeks were slightly red, sowhat embarrassed—is it possible she misunderstood sothing?
Wang Yuanyuan was quite happy, she stepped forward and grabbed Ye Muyu’s hand: “Ah Yu, I knew you wouldn’t be easily hurt.”
“If Lord Chu wasn’t here, I might be worried, but as long as Lord Chu is around, if anyone’s in trouble, it won’t be you.”
Ye Muyu: “…” Although this sounds like showing off their love, it’s not wrong.
It’s just that Wang Yuanyuan, an outsider, said it so openly.
Does she appear too conspicuous when she’s out with Chu Heng sotis?
Does she need to change sothing?
While Ye Muyu was pondering this sweet dilemma, Wang Yuanyuan ntioned another matter to her.
“Ah Yu, your manor is so well built, even with a hot spring, be careful those assassins don’t escape and spread the word.”
Ye Muyu couldn’t follow her logic, so she just nodded and asked: “Why?”
Actually, she wanted to say that those assassins didn’t escape—they were all captured by Chu Heng’s n. There’s a good chance it’s related to the Sacred Girl of Southern Border and so officials who were entangled in the Marquis of Ande’s Mansion incident.
Of course, most of these officials now wouldn’t dare to act recklessly. After all, to even keep one’s life is quite fortunate, and they wouldn’t be stupid enough to seek revenge.
Moreover, Chu Heng in this matter was visibly involved in helping confiscate property.
But those people before, like the Deng Family, were fine.
Still uncertain why Consort Jie hadn’t fallen out of Emperor Xuanming’s favor, the Deng Family was still doing well.
However, the Deng Family, who could utilize those assassins, knowing the news of the palace upheaval through so channels, understood that Chu Heng, having gained Emperor Xuanming’s trust, was rely transferred to the Ministry of War as part of the Emperor’s opportunistic plan. The supposed falling out was nothing but a smokescreen by Emperor Xuanming and Chu Heng.
In fact, many officials were fooled and didn’t dare to act rashly.
Naturally, that palace upheaval was resolved so easily.
“Because the hot spring in your manor is rare. You know, in the capital, there aren’t many Noble people with such good hot springs. Most are controlled by the Imperial Clan.” Wang Yuanyuan seriously said, adhering to the principle of keeping a low profile.
Lady Zhou failed to grasp her point but didn’t oppose the statent: “Indeed, like our Zhou Mansion, we couldn’t buy a manor with a hot spring. Hot springs are indeed rare—it’s said soaking in them is even more comfortable in the winter.”
“Previously, a lady close to the Elder Princess ntioned that we, as won, are not very convenient.” Lady Zhou was too embarrassed to admit she had never soaked in a hot spring.
Ye Muyu listened and understood; after all, quietly earning profits and keeping a low profile avoids resentnt.
“You’re right, Yuanyuan, this hot spring manor is indeed rare, but it’s not large. However, less trouble is always better.” Ye Muyu reassured the two.
Stay and enjoy the hot springs without worry.
“Let’s soak for a while before having lunch.” Ye Muyu had the servants bring suitable inner garnts.
Chu Ziluo took several young misses to the nearby pool.
She, together with Lady Zhou, Wang Yuanyuan, brought Nuanbao and Lil’ Bao to soak in this side’s pool.
The hot spring pools in the manor aren’t big, only suitable for small private pools, but it’s enough.
After all, fewer people soaking is more comfortable and clean.
