Chapter 935 Ling Yun’s Mouth is Really Cruel

Lu Bayue sighed, "It turns out women can be so cunning."

Su Xi smiled and said, "My mother is very capable, so she must be not much worse."

"If we really expand our harem, based on our intelligence, there won't be a single bone left."

Lu Bayue rubbed the goose bumps on his arms, "Do you have to be so scary?"

Su Nuan didn't scare her anymore and said with a smile, "Let's watch the show."

The two came to the Penglai Palace, which was used to entertain guests. There were many people watching the fun at the gate, including palace maids, guards and ministers.

Lu Bayue coughed lightly, "What are you doing?"

The palace maids and guards hurriedly saluted and scattered like birds and beasts.

Several ministers were also embarrassed and left after saying hello.

Su Nuan stood at the door and saw Ling Yun confronting a girl wearing a ruby ​​forehead ornament.

The girl was wearing a long dress with a black background embroidered with silver koi fish, and her hair was tied up with a ponytail, making her look very neat.

There was a strong desire to conquer in her eyes as she looked at Ling Yun.

The way Ling Yun looked at her... was without a trace of emotion.

Lu Bayue was a little angry, "Why are they still looking at each other affectionately?"

Su Nuan smiled and said, "Which eye of yours saw their deep affection?"

Lu Bayue curled her lips, "He shouldn't look at other women, and look at them for so long."

Su Nuan had long noticed that Ling Yun's thoughts were drifting away, and he was not looking at the person in front of him.

Apparently, Ouyang Wenzhu also misunderstood Ling Yun's expression. She smiled complacently, "How is it?"

Ling Yun came back to his senses and asked in confusion: "What's going on?"

The smile on Ouyang Wenzhu's face froze, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Ling Yun suddenly said, "You want compensation for the losses? Since you offered it, then the compensation should be 100,000 taels of silver."

Ouyang Wenzhu angrily said, "What? Why should I pay compensation?"

Ling Yun replied calmly: "You were the one who broke the things in the house."

Ouyang Wenzhu was so angry that she laughed, "So what if it's my fault? It's just some broken furniture and a few plates, and you asked me to pay 100,000 taels in compensation. That's simply too much."

Ling Yun's eyes glared, and he said coldly, "Those were all arranged and selected by the Queen herself. Each one is priceless."

"I'm asking you to pay a compensation of 100,000 taels because you're a guest. I'll have someone compile it into a book and send it to your mother later."

Ouyang Wenzhu gritted her teeth in anger, "You...I am your concubine!"

Ling Yun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Not yet, you must compensate."

Ouyang Wenzhu was so angry that she almost vomited blood. This man...

But the next moment she smiled again. It was more interesting to conquer such a man.

She smiled and said, "Okay, no need to look for my mother, I'll accompany you now."

Ling Yun directly extended his hand, "Silver."

After a pause, he explained, "We don't accept silver bills from your city, we only accept gold, silver and jewelry."

Ouyang Wenzhu choked. She had never been so embarrassed by a man before.

She touched the bracelet on her wrist, and several boxes appeared on the ground.

She said, "These are for you."

Ling Yun raised his hand and a palace maid came over and opened the box on the ground.

He took a quick look and saw a box of silver ingots and a box of gold bars, but the total amount was only about 70,000 taels of silver.

The other three boxes contained beautiful shells and conches.

Ling Yun frowned and said, "Is that all?"

Ouyang Wenzhu snorted coldly, pointing to the boxes of conchs and said, "These are all valuable items. Each box is worth more than ten thousand taels of silver."

Ling Yun asked, "Where is it worth so much money?"

Ouyang Wenzhu said complacently, "The noble ladies and daughters of Yuan Country all like these and are willing to spend a lot of money to buy them."

Ling Yun looked at Ouyang Wenzhu as if she were a fool. He said without any politeness, "Are you stupid?"

Ouyang Wenzhu was boasting proudly, but when she heard Ling Yun say that, she almost bit her tongue.

"You...what did you say?"

Ling Yun pointed at the conchs and said, "I don't care how much you sell these things for elsewhere, but they are worthless to me."

Then he pointed to the large clam shells filled with water in the yard and said, "See? Those are only fit to be used as water tanks."

Ouyang Wenzhu was stunned. Was that half-human-high clam shell real? She had thought it was carved from stone by a craftsman to make it look more impressive.

Compared to that clam shell, the things in her box were as insignificant as children's toys.

Su Nuan thought for a while and took out a string of beads from the space. The beads were snail beads and pearl beads of various colors.

She put the beads on Lu Bayue's neck, looked at it and smiled: "It's a bit weird, wear it first."

Lu Bayue glanced at Su Nuan, "Do you treat me as a tool?"

Su Nuan admitted generously, "Yeah, a tool."

Lu Bayue curled her lips and said, "Once you put it on me, you can't take it back."

Su Nuan laughed, "Look at your lack of ability. I have something better than this in my warehouse. Go and look for it yourself."

She has two warehouses, one locked and one unlocked.

The locked warehouse contained Ling Yun’s official rewards, while the unlocked room contained some small items, including jewelry like this.

Sister Hong usually takes a look through the books and takes away any that she likes.

Lu Bayue rarely goes there. She can't be as free and easy as Sister Hong because she feels that Sister Hong can help Su Nuan with things, but she can't help at all.

Not only can she not help, she also has to rely on the Sifang Kingdom for protection, which means she is just a little waste raised by Su Nuan.

Su Nuan knew what Lu Bayue was thinking, so she often dragged her to do some things that could be considered pranks.

Those who were teased dared not speak out, but they also knew how much the queen doted on this imperial concubine, so they did not dare to disrespect her.

Seeing that Su Nuan didn't go in, Lu Bayue asked, "Why don't you go in?"

Su Nuan smiled and said, "Wait a little longer."

The two continued to watch.

Ouyang Wenzhu inside was insulted by Ling Yun and was embarrassed. She took out a small box from her bracelet and opened it. Inside was three spiral beads, each the size of a man's fingernail.

A look of pain appeared on her face, but then she said smugly, "Then pick one and use it to pay off your debt. In our place, one is worth a fortune. It's a bargain for you."

Ling Yun stared at the beads and pointed at one and asked, "Is this a snail bead?"

Ouyang Wenzhu thought Ling Yun was stunned. She said proudly, "How is it? You haven't seen this kind of beads before, have you?"

"Look at the patterns on it. They're not found on ordinary pearls. This kind of snail pearl is extremely rare."

Ling Yun looked at Zhuzi and then at Ouyang Wenzhu. He said with disgust, "As ugly as you!"

Ouyang Wenzhu thought she was hallucinating. Her eyes were confused for a moment. She asked doubtfully, "Who do you think is ugly, me or Zhuzi?"

Ling Yun replied bluntly, "Is there any difference between you and Zhuzi? You're both equally ugly, but in the eyes of some people, you might still be acceptable."
