Just as Zhu Yu said.

Not long after he came out of Yunyan Pavilion, the people from the Shanggong Bureau realized the intention of their superiors and hurriedly ordered people to make up for the expenses that Yunyan Pavilion had withheld.

Liu, the head of the household, bowed and smiled apologetically, "Chenghui, please forgive me. It's the end of the year and the East Palace is busy. I was so lazy that I forgot to send you something. I hope you won't blame me."

Peirong, who was standing aside, was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she remembered her master's warning in her heart and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on her face.

Fu Qianyu smiled lightly, "Thank you for your hard work, Boss Liu. It's freezing cold out, so this little money is just to treat you to tea."

How could Liu, the head of the household, dare to accept it? "No, no, this is my duty. How dare I accept your reward?"

Fu Qianyu stood up, took the purse and personally stuffed it into the hands of Liu, saying soothingly, "Even tigers have their naps, let alone humans. You are busy with all the affairs of the Eastern Palace, it is really hard work, how could I not know it?"

Manager Liu looked at Fu Qianyu's smile and felt relieved. However, Fu Qianyu's next words made her heart rise to her throat again.

"But I heard that the former head of the Shanggong Bureau, due to negligence, caused his servants to embezzle funds from the Zhaoyang Palace. Although it was only a mere one or two taels of silver, the head was still sent to the torture chamber by the Crown Prince. Although I am not as noble as Sister Gao, the rules of this palace are the same. Headmaster Liu has always been a smart man, so he should understand it, right?"

Upon hearing this, Manager Liu suddenly panicked.

The scene of the former head being dragged to the torture chamber is still vivid in my mind.

She only thought that Fu had offended the man in Zhaoyang Palace, and her future was over. However, she did not expect that things would take a turn for the better. Just because she had a few words with the prince by chance, she had to trouble Zhu Neijian to go to Yunyan Pavilion in person to deliver something.

Manager Liu was so busy trying to please the people of Zhaoyang Palace that he forgot that the Crown Prince had the final say in the Eastern Palace, and at worst there was still the Crown Princess.

"Yes, Cheng Hui is reminding me that I will properly discipline the people in the Shanggong Bureau in the future."

Fu Qianyu stopped at that point and would not really make things difficult for Manager Liu. She just smiled and told Lingyun to send the person out properly.

Peirong was not very happy. "Master, this Liu is a fence-sitter. She withheld so much from us before, and now she is pushing it onto the servants. Why don't you take this opportunity to teach her a lesson?"

"What happens after the lesson?"

Peirong was stunned. "We have to let her know that we are not easy to bully."

"You're always so impatient." Fu Qianyu said slowly, "We should always leave a way out so we can meet again in the future. Why do we have to be so drastic? It will only make others think we're being overbearing."

Peirong pursed her lips and said, "Master, I feel that since you woke up, your temperament has changed."

Fu Qianyu smiled lightly, "Is that good or bad?"

"I can't explain it, but I know you are my master. No matter what you say or do, I will support you."

Fu Qianyu smiled.

Not long after, Lingyun walked in.

Fu Qianyu reached out and took a pair of jade bracelets from the table and handed them to the two of them, saying earnestly, "I brought you from my family, so naturally I'm closer to you than others. From now on, we'll share both our success and failure. As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone bully you."

Their eyes immediately turned red. Peirong nodded, "Master, don't worry. Sister Lingyun and I will protect you at all times."

The snow fell all day long and did not stop until evening.

Jiyue Terrace.

Ever since Zhao Yuancheng returned from Zhaoyang Palace in the afternoon, he has been hunched over his desk reviewing official documents.

Seeing that it was time for dinner, Zhu Yu stepped forward and reminded him, "Your Highness, it's already the evening hour. Would you like to have dinner at one of the mistresses' palaces, or should I have the food delivered to the Jiyue Terrace?"

Zhao Yuancheng said nothing, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Zhu Yu waited for a while and then went out tactfully. Not long after, he heard Zhao Yuancheng calling him from inside.

"The servant is here."

Zhao Yuancheng put down the pen in his hand and said slowly, "Go to Yaoguang Palace."

“Yeah.”

Zhu Yu received the order and was about to send someone to Yaoguang Palace to inform the Crown Princess, but as soon as he turned around, Zhao Yuancheng changed his mind.

"Let's go to Yunyan Pavilion."

Zhu Yu didn't dare to say anything and hurriedly ordered his apprentice Xiao Dezi to go to Yunyan Pavilion to pass on the message.

In fact, Fu Qianyu was not completely sure whether Zhao Yuancheng would come tonight. It was not until Xiao Dezi came to deliver the message that she came to her senses.

After instructing Lingyun to give the reward money, Fu Qianyu hurried into the inner room to wash and change clothes.

Peirong picked out a pink and red dress with tiered beads and gauze, and took out a set of ruby ​​head ornaments from the jewelry box.

"Master, why don't you wear this headdress tonight? Your skin is fair, and the ruby ​​is a perfect match for it."

Fu Qianyu looked at him without saying a word.

To put it bluntly, Zhao Yuancheng came to Yunyan Pavilion to fight with the monsters. If that's the case, why should he dress so formally? It would be troublesome to take it off later.

"It's too cumbersome." Fu Qianyu glanced over and pointed at the shirt with the Ruyi cloud pattern: "Just wear this. As for the jewelry, the white jade hairpin will be perfect with it."

Peirong frowned, "Master, isn't this a bit too plain? The prince hasn't been to our place for a long time."

Fu Qianyu didn't care. "The Crown Princess is not feeling well, so it wouldn't be appropriate for me to wear red or green. This is perfect."

Peirong saw that she couldn't persuade him, so she had to agree.

After they were dressed, the two girls couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Her sleeves were wide and loose, and her three thousand strands of hair were tied into a low bun, loosely held up with only a white jade hairpin. This made Fu Qianyu look somewhat otherworldly and ethereal. She was extremely elegant from the inside out, like a blooming white lotus, pure and elegant.
