The emperor, who was drinking water, immediately spat it out!

Bai Han and Chen Luo quickly handed the handkerchief to the Emperor.

The Emperor looked at Mu Yangzhi with a black line on his forehead, coughed twice and said, "Mu Yangzhi, what's wrong with you now?"

Mu Yangzhi, who was called out, shrank back: "Dad, why are you eavesdropping on people's conversations!"

"Do I need to eavesdrop? Your voice is so loud the people in the next room can hear you! Aren't you ashamed of yourself!"

The Emperor glared at Mu Yangzhi.

Mu Yangzhi looked at the Emperor with a puzzled expression: "Nan Xiao and Tuan Tuan also spoke, why didn't you scold them?"

The Emperor raised an eyebrow: "Why are you interrupting when people are speaking? Is it strange that Tuantuan calls Nanxiao 'brother'?"

The emperor felt that his son had a serious problem with his brain!

Mu Yangzhi chuckled awkwardly, then hurriedly served the Emperor some food, saying ingratiatingly, "I was just imitating her way of speaking for fun! Father, I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

Bai Han and Chen Luo exchanged a glance, and then Chen Luo said, "The Second Prince is not young anymore, it's time for him to marry a Second Prince's wife."

"Grandpa Chen! Don't try to trick me!" Mu Yangzhi cried out, immediately shaking his head. "I'm not getting married! If I'm going to marry, it will be someone I like! I haven't found anyone yet! Grandpa Chen, if you want to play matchmaker, go find Uncle Bai and the others, they're still single!"

"Hahaha!" The Emperor laughed, then looked at Bai Han and said, "What do you think, sir? Do you need me to bestow a marriage upon you?"

Bai Han waved his hand: "Tuantuan said that her uncles' marriages are all scheduled for this year. We just need to wait. It wouldn't be good if this arranged marriage resulted in a mismatched couple."

Chen Luo nodded in agreement: "Leave the children's affairs to the children; we won't interfere."

Mu Yangrun coughed, trying to get everyone's attention, but the emperor and the others obviously didn't want to talk to him anymore, so they pretended not to hear him.

Mu Yangrun's face darkened, and looking at the delicacies in front of him, he lost his appetite.

After Bai Tuantuan had eaten and drunk her fill, she looked at Bai Han and asked, "Grandfather, are we staying here tonight?"

"Yes, it's all arranged, right in the backyard."

The innkeeper came up and led everyone to the backyard, where the scenery made even the emperor exclaim in amazement: "Such a beautiful view!"

After looking around, Bai Tuantuan was puzzled: "I remember there should be a white pear blossom here, where did it go?"

Bai Tuantuan was involved in the design of the backyard of Erdong Restaurant, incorporating plants into the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams according to the local weather.

But it's obvious that one tree is missing here.

The shopkeeper's eyes flickered, and after stammering for a while, he said, "It's like this, the trees here died, so one is missing, but I've already bought a new one, and it will be planted soon."

"That's impossible!" Bai Tuantuan frowned slightly. "White pear trees are very easy to grow, how could they die?"

Mu Yangzhi, however, disagreed, saying, "So what if he's dead? We can just plant another tree."

Bai Tuantuan responded without giving it much thought. The group walked forward and saw a rest area.

"wrong."

Bai Tuantuan stopped and looked at the shopkeeper: "The layout here is wrong. When your uncle asked you to build Erdong Restaurant, he should have told you that everything here should be arranged according to my blueprints. What is this swing? My blueprints could not possibly include this."

"And why are vegetables growing here?"

Bai Tuantuan's brows were furrowed tightly.

Mu Yangrun, standing to the side, said, "What's wrong with growing vegetables? Such a big restaurant can save costs if it grows vegetables."

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I meant," the shopkeeper quickly replied. "I was thinking that since we have land here, we could grow our own vegetables and save some money."

Upon hearing this, Bai Tuantuan stared at the shopkeeper for a long while before saying, "Is that so?"

Seeing this, Mu Yang nudged Ning Nanxiao with his elbow: "What's wrong? Tuantuan seems angry."

Ning Nanxiao responded, "Yes, her blueprints incorporated the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams to gather wealth and energy, but this change ruined it all."

Mu Yangzhi clicked his tongue twice and slowly said, "Perhaps the shopkeeper doesn't know."

"Don't know? I think the manager treats Erdong Restaurant like his own home."

Bai Han and Chen Luo exchanged a glance, clearly sensing Bai Tuantuan's anger.

Chen Luo whispered a few words in Bai Han's ear, and Bai Han then walked to the Emperor's side: "Your Majesty must be tired, go and rest first."

The Emperor responded and left with Bai Han and Chen Luo.

The imperial physicians and others followed behind.

After they had walked some distance, Eunuch Cai received a look from the Emperor and asked in a low voice, "I wonder why the princess is angry?"

Chen Luo sighed and shook his head: "No wonder Tuantuan is angry. If Xiaoran came and saw this scene, he would probably beat up the shopkeeper."

"Why is this?" the imperial physician couldn't help but ask. "Is it just because the tree died? Or is it because you planted vegetables without permission?"

“If it were that simple, why would Tuantuan be angry?” Chen Luo waved his hand. “These things were repeatedly instructed not to be moved even a little bit. Perhaps in your eyes it’s just a tree, but if this tree is gone, the health of the people who have been here will deteriorate and their lifespan will be affected.”

"What?" The imperial physician was taken aback.

"Tuan Tuan's divination skills should not be underestimated; these things must not be touched."

Bai Han stroked his white beard and echoed, "Indeed, but the shopkeeper doesn't seem to be a person with bad intentions. If he were, Bai Tuantuan would speak frankly. Perhaps there are some hidden reasons behind this."

"Just leave it to Tuantuan and Nanxiao; they can handle it." The Emperor wasn't in a hurry. "We're getting old; let's rest first."

Upon entering the side room, it was clear that it had been decorated.

Eunuch Cai took out the items and served the Emperor tea.

There was a knock on the door.

Eunuch Cai went out and quickly returned: "Master, it's the Third Young Master."

The Emperor paused slightly in his teacup and said calmly, "It's time to rest."

Eunuch Cai responded and then spoke to Mu Yangrun about something. Mu Yangrun could only leave dejectedly.

Meanwhile, Bai Tuantuan led the innkeeper to a private room on the second floor.

The shopkeeper looked at Bai Tuantuan's expression with resentment.

Mu Yangzhi, who had insisted on coming along, swallowed hard and whispered, "Tuantuan can be quite frightening when she gets angry."

Ning Nanxiao glanced at Mu Yangzhi but did not speak.

Bai Tuantuan stared at the shopkeeper and said coldly, "Tell me, who told you to move the pear tree, who told you to design the swing, and who told you to plant vegetables?"

"As the manager of Erdong Restaurant, someone should have told you that if you follow the rules, you'll be paid well and your benefits won't be bad, but you must follow the rules!"

The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, Miss, it was my fault. I'll correct it right away, immediately."

Bai Tuantuan paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll give you one more chance."

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and after Bai Tuantuan and the others left, he quickly ordered someone to restore the place to its original state.

Mu Yangzhi couldn't help but ask, "Are you just going to let them go like that?"

"Cast a long line to catch a big fish."
