The next day, Yan Yunshu got up early and squatted at the door of the main hall. She looked at Yan Shuyao from afar and saw that her face had mostly recovered, then turned around and returned to her Fanghua Garden.
She was thinking about telling Xu Jinghuai so that she could start spreading the word that Yan Shuyao was a "goddess" who could cure incurable diseases, but when she looked at the heavy snow outside, she really didn't want to go out.
So she tried to wait at the door for "a secret guard who happened to pass by" to help pass a message to Xu Jinghuai. After a long time without any response, she simply shouted into the air, "Hey! Is there anyone passing by!!!"
With a swish, a white shadow fell in front of Yan Yunshu. Yan Yunshu was shocked when she saw the shadow in front of her.
"What's going on? What a coincidence?"
Yingfeng thought about it and nodded. Yes, it was such a coincidence. If he revealed the fact that the prince was guarding the princess day and night, he would be punished when he returned home.
"Can you please take a message to your prince for me?"
Yingfeng nodded and said, "Of course you can. The prince said that as long as you, the princess, are not having an affair, everything else is fine."
Of course you can't say that.
Yan Yunshu looked at Ying Feng, who only nodded without saying anything, and laughed, "Are you mute?"
"Replying to Princess, Yingfeng is not mute."
"Well, I understand." Yan Yunshu thought for a moment, "Please tell your prince that we can start spreading the news about the goddess."
"Princess, the prince gave the order yesterday. It should spread in a few days."
"Huh?" Yan Yunshu was shocked. It seemed that she had underestimated Xu Jinghuai's ability to get things done. This man, except for his sharp tongue, was really an excellent person.
She was even more satisfied with this marriage.
Ladies of leisure, you don’t have to serve your husband or deal with your parents-in-law. You are free and at ease. How wonderful!
Yan Yunshu was thinking about these things happily.
Yan Yunyi, who had slept in the woodshed for a whole day, went to the Ministry of Revenue's Warehouse Department again with dark circles under his eyes.
It is the snow season now, and there are constant snow disasters on the border of Tianze Kingdom. Zhu Nianyan is in charge of the Granary Department, which is responsible for allocating food resources. So except for Zhu Nianyan who went to the morning court, everyone else was busy. When they saw the city defense captain Yan Yunyi coming again, they were shocked.
Yan Yunyi is a military officer, but he always comes to the Ministry of Revenue to join in the fun. What's going on?
But after all, Yan Yunyi held an official position, was the legitimate son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was the legitimate grandson of Lord Wen of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion. He could not be neglected in any way. He could only be respectfully invited in and allowed to wander around within a reasonable range.
He looked left and right, and finally stopped in front of Zhu Nianyan's desk.
There is still half an incense stick of time before the next morning court session. He has found out almost everything he could yesterday. Now he wants to meet Zhu Nianyan in person again.
Yan Yunyi's brows were furrowed, his eyes sharp. His pale, powerful hands tapped lightly on the tabletop, once, twice...
A moment later.
A thin servant slowly walked up to him and handed him a cup of tea: "Sir, please have some tea."
The voice was gentle and melodious, like the gurgling water in winter, flowing softly through Yan Yunyi's ears. He had no intention of drinking tea, but still did not refuse, but just looked at him carefully.
The servant was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a delicate face and curved eyebrows that hung like crescent moons on his fair face. He saw that Yan Yunyi didn't say anything and didn't take the tea, as if he didn't understand what he had done wrong.
My whole body began to tremble slightly.
Yan Yunyi took the teacup, and the servant finally breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a rustling sound from the side. Yan Yunyi looked over and saw that the people who were working on the other side were all looking at the two of them. When they saw Yan Yunyi looking at them, they all buried their heads in their work again.
This little servant is no ordinary person! Yan Yunyi thought.
He lowered his voice and asked, "What's your name?"
The servant said, "My Lord, I am Wei Ruopu."
"Wei Ruopu, Ruopu means cattail, which is soft yet tough. It's a good name."
Wei Ruopu's body trembled, and he quickly said, "Thank you for the compliment, sir."
Yan Yunyi put down the teacup and said, "Wei Ruopu, look up."
Wei Ruopu hesitated for a few seconds, but still raised his face, and a picturesque face suddenly appeared in front of Yan Yunyi.
Yan Yunyi was surprised. When the servant in front of him lowered his head, he could already see her handsome face. But when he saw her true face, she was so beautiful?
However, Wei Ruopu's appearance and figure do not seem like those of an ordinary servant. There must be something wrong.
"How long have you been working in the Ministry of Revenue?"
"Go back, sir, for one year."
"Is it hard?"
"It's not hard, sir."
“What do you usually do?”
"Your Excellency, serve tea and water, clean the place, and deliver the case files."
"I've noticed that all the servants here have rough hands and feet and are stocky. How come you're the only one who's different?"
"My lord, my lord, my lord... I have an old mother at home to take care of." Wei Ruopu's body was a little unsteady, and his face showed an unconcealable panic.
Yan Yunyi looked at him sharply. Although it was a menial job, how could an ordinary person with no one to rely on get into the Ministry of Revenue?
He asked, "Who recommended you to the Ministry of Revenue?"
Wei Ruopu's face was pale, and sweat had already appeared on his forehead. The sweat slid down his skin as delicate as snow. As if feeling rude, he quickly raised his hand to wipe the sweat off himself, but it only took a moment.
Yan Yunyi then caught a glimpse of the bright red marks on Ruxue's wrist in his sleeve, still oozing with blood.
Yan Yunyi's suspicion deepened. He asked, "Who recommended me?"
"Servant Zhu..."
Before he could finish his words, a deep and mellow voice came from outside the door.
"Master Yan!"
Wei Ruopu quickly retreated to the side like a frightened rabbit, his whole body still trembling.
Yan Yunyi looked at Wei Ruopu, then at the door, at the man who looked about 50% like his father. He was wearing a dark red official robe, with a restrained smile on his face. He was kind and honest, exactly the same as his father was in front of outsiders.
Zhu Nianyan.
He strode towards Yan Yunyi, then politely stood in front of Wei Ruopu and said with a smile, "I wonder what brings you here, Captain Yan?"
After saying that, he glared fiercely at the people behind him. Wei Ruopu picked up the tea tray and left with his hands shaking like a sieve.
Yan Yunyi looked at his back, then at Zhu Nianyan, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Master Zhu would have such a beautiful and elegant servant."
Zhu Nianyan's smiling face flashed with a hint of caution, "I'm just a servant, not worth mentioning, Captain."
"Oh? I quite like that servant just now. I wonder if you can give him to me, sir."
Zhu Nianyan's face darkened, "Captain Yan, are you a good man..."
