The next day, Jiang Muyu went to Lihua Manor.

This time, she only brought a maid named Yunyan and a few guards.

Manager Shang and his men were waiting outside the manor. The weather was getting colder, and they stood by the door, rubbing their hands and breathing out from time to time, until they saw the palace's carriage approaching from afar, and then they stood straight.

Jiang Muyu was helped down by Yun Yanhui.

After a few greetings, they surrounded her and went in.

When she arrived at the farm, she saw the tenant farmers standing in rows waiting for her.

Manager Shang said, "The tenants have worked very hard these days and have completed the project in a hurry. We are just waiting for your inspection."

Jiang Muyu nodded and said, "Then let's go directly to the vegetable greenhouse."

"yes."

The group walked towards the location of the vegetable greenhouse. Jiang Muyu planned out ten acres of land for construction, with one acre as a greenhouse.

From a distance, it looks like a large white shed. In order to adapt to the times, it has undergone many modifications, using materials that can be found in this era to build it while trying not to deviate from the principles.

Now that I see it, it really does look like that.

When she was in Jiangnan before, she would often exchange letters with Manager Shang, so with her instruction, vegetables have been planted in three greenhouses. However, it has only been a few days since the seeds were sown, and only sprouts have been seen in the fields. But this is enough to show that her vegetable greenhouses are very effective and can be used normally.

When winter comes, everything withers. Perhaps her farm is the only one in the entire Tiangan Kingdom that can still produce fresh vegetables.

Jiang Muyu inspected it and was very satisfied. He then went to see the ditches dug in the fields. They were already able to carry water, but it was the dry season and the water volume was low. The high drum cart made by the craftsmen was also very good.

Unexpectedly, things went more smoothly than she had imagined. She was very happy and gave the rewards as promised, and added an extra 1 or 2 taels of silver to each person, saying it was a year-end bonus.

The tenant farmers were very happy and thanked her one after another.

Jiang Muyu felt that all the unhappiness in his heart had disappeared, so he asked the chefs to prepare wine and food and treated everyone to a good meal.

At night, the lights in Lihua Manor were bright, and people were sitting in the courtyard eating happily.

Jiang Muyu was in a good mood, so she sat down and had a few drinks with the tenant farmers. She still remembered how she behaved last time after drinking too much, and Liang Qingchen was not around this time, so she didn't dare to drink too much and stopped at the right time.

After eating and drinking, she returned to her temporary dormitory, but did not see Yunyan. She called the guard and asked, "Have you seen Yunyan?"

The guard said, "We have been guarding outside the door. About a quarter of an hour ago, we heard Miss Yunyan say she was going out to look for you. Didn't the queen meet her?"

Jiang Muyu shook her head: "I haven't seen her before dinner."

"Maybe he's going to do something else. He might be back soon."

Yunyan was originally someone Liang Qingchen had planted beside her. She rarely asked about their affairs and only knew what he wanted her to know. Maybe this time Yunyan was also going to do something that was inconvenient for her to know.

Jiang Muyu waved his hand and dismissed the guards.

She rubbed her swollen brows. She had just drunk some sorghum wine brewed by tenant farmers. The wine was strong and although she had only sipped two glasses, it was now really intoxicating after the effects of the wine took effect.

She lay on the couch with her clothes on her side and closed her eyes to rest, her consciousness gradually becoming hazy.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but just when she was about to fall asleep, she was suddenly disturbed by a loud noise.

The guard outside shouted, "What are you doing sneaking around the wall?"

I don't know what the other party said, I just heard the guard say: "Little boy, do you think you can see the princess whenever you want?"

Then I heard the little girl raise her voice and cry, "I really have something to ask you, please let me in."

The guard saw her crying and was at a loss as to what to do, so he had to go into the house to report.

Jiang Muyu had already woken up and was sitting on the couch with one hand supporting her head. Without waiting for him to speak, she said lazily, "Let her in."

"yes."

The guards went out and brought in a little girl a short while later. She was wearing a pink dress and her face was red from crying.

Jiang Muyu thought she looked familiar, and after a moment of recollection, he asked, "Are you Director Shang's daughter?"

"Yes." Shang Xiaozhen didn't know what etiquette to follow when meeting the empress, so she just knelt down.

"What are you doing?"

"I...I have something to tell you, Madam."

"What is it?"

"I was on my way out of the house to look for my father just now when I saw Brother Qin knocking out a sister and dragging her into the abandoned warehouse in the manor. I had seen that sister before. She was with the princess."

Jiang Muyu was stunned for a moment, then immediately sat up and asked seriously, "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"

Shang Xiaozhen wiped her tears and said, "I didn't see it wrong. I wanted to go over and take a look, but he went in and closed the door. I was afraid that Brother Qin would find me, so I ran over."

When she had a conflict with the princess, the sister who was with the princess was Yunyan. She asked Brother Qin to seek justice, but when Brother Qin saw the sister, he switched sides, so she was sure that she was not mistaken.

Jiang Muyu immediately stood up, helped her up from the ground, wiped the tears from her face, and said softly: "My dear, where is the warehouse? Can you take me there?"

Shang Xiaozhen looked at her blankly and nodded.

Jiang Muyu suppressed the discomfort caused by being drunk, took Shang Xiaozhen, and walked out of the yard with a group of guards, heading towards the abandoned warehouse.

When we arrived at the place, we saw a fenced yard with two adobe houses. There was a lot of firewood piled on the open space in the yard. The wooden door of one of the houses was closed at this time. As we approached, we could hear a woman crying softly from inside.

Jiang Muyu didn't care about much, so he let go of Shang Xiaozhen's hand, walked to the side, picked up the axe for chopping wood on the ground, walked quickly forward and chopped the door open with one axe.

The door was wide open, and facing them was the back of a man with half his clothes off. Although the face of the woman under him could not be seen clearly, the exposed corner of her clothes was obviously what Yunyan was wearing today.

Jiang Muyu's pupils shrank due to this disgusting scene, his blood surged, and he immediately rushed forward.

The people inside were completely stunned by the loud noise and turned around in a daze. However, before they could see who was coming, they were slapped hard in the face and turned their heads away.

Jiang Muyu didn't give him a chance to react. She grabbed the back of his collar and threw him against the wall.

Qin Hai was frightened. He huddled against the wall with half of his body naked, looking in horror at the woman in front of him who was shrouded in darkness like a descending Rakshasa.

"Hold his hands and feet for me!"

At Jiang Muyu's command, the guards woke up as if from a dream and immediately stepped forward to hold Qin Hai's hands and feet.

She drew out the long sword from her waist, pointed the tip of the sword at Tan Hai's face, and smiled sinisterly, "Don't move. I'm drunk now, so I may not be accurate."

Qin Hai immediately dared not struggle at will. He looked at her with fear, his body shaking uncontrollably, and his voice trembling: "Your Majesty... I... I know I was wrong..."

"Shut up and don't let me hear your disgusting voice."

Qin Hai immediately dared not speak again.

Jiang Muyu then ordered: "Take off his pants."
