In her previous life, he squandered all his glory for her, sacrificed the entire world, endured endless humiliation, and ultimately accompanied her to a tragic death at the palace gates, their bodi...
Picking up the teapot and uncovering the teacup, Qingfeng asked doubtfully, "Master, haven't you finished your tea yet?"
After glaring at Qingfeng, Qian Yeming asked irritably, "Can't I have some hot tea?"
"……yes!"
Qingfeng poured out the tea leaves with a sense of grievance, picked up some more tea leaves with a teacup clip, and then washed, brewed, and poured the tea...
He felt really troublesome.
Qian Yeming was diligently reviewing the classics when he asked, seemingly concerned yet casual, "Has the Crown Princess gone out?"
"Well, they saw the Crown Princess just put on the clothes of the Western Jin Dynasty and disguised herself as a man before going out."
Western Jin Dynasty clothing? Women dressed as men? Disguise?
Qian Yeming frowned and thought for a long time, and finally made a gesture to Qingfeng to let him leave.
Half an hour later...
"Fresh breeze."
"Master!" Qingfeng appeared again.
"What time is it now?"
"To answer your question, it is just 5 pm now."
"It's only 3:00 PM? Are you sure?"
"I'm sure."
"Got it. Go on down."
Half an hour later...
"Fresh breeze."
"Master!" Qingfeng appeared again.
"Pour the tea!"
"yes!"
"...What time is it now?"
"..." Qingfeng was slightly stunned. "Master, it's two o'clock in the afternoon. Is there something wrong with you? If so, I will notify you promptly."
The other party looked a little depressed, waved at him and said, "No, it's okay. Go down."
Seeing his master's depressed look, Qingfeng finally understood why he was always asking about the time. After understanding, Qingfeng broke out in a sweat.
Master, the Crown Princess said she would be back before the hour of Xu. You keep asking about the time like this, isn't that too...what?
Qingfeng had just gone out when the voice came again.
"Master! Qingfeng has something to report."
Qian Yeming rubbed his brows and asked impatiently, "What's the matter?"
"A secret letter from Mingyue Tower said someone just used my jade pendant to avoid two thugs from the Haoyun Casino. It seems they may have won money from the Haoyun Casino and are now targeting them."
Upon hearing the word "jade pendant", Qian Yeming immediately jumped up from his seat.
"Where's the secret letter?"
Qingfeng opened his lips slightly, but before he could hand it to his master, the letter had already been snatched away by his master.
The secret letter contained a picture and a letter. Although the person in the picture had changed his appearance and looked completely different from Murong Xiao, Qingfeng recognized him.
"Master, this is how Madam looks when she leaves the house."
After reading the secret letter, Qian Yeming sat back in his chair and fell silent again.
This matter is actually very simple. Murong Xiao won money in a gambling house and was targeted by the people in the gambling house. In order to get rid of them, she used the jade pendant he gave her to leave through Mingyue Tower.
Although the matter is simple, the problems hidden within it are complicated.
Qingfeng asked in confusion, "Master, Qingfeng doesn't understand. When Madam left just now, you gave her the jade pendant and told her that if she needed large-denomination banknotes, she could go to Rongchang Bank with the jade pendant to get them.
"My master's message only revealed that Rongchang Bank was your property, but it didn't mention Mingyue Tower at all. How did Madam know about Mingyue Tower?"
He frowned and remained silent for a moment. In fact, he also wanted to know how Murong Xiao knew that Mingyue Tower was also his, but in front of Qingfeng, he didn't want to make things too complicated. He said, "I have told her before."
