Chapter 55: Identity Revealed!
Yun Li frowned. This result was different from what she expected... How could the auction be delayed...
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Master Nalan, please give me an offer first. If it's suitable, I can consider selling it to you. However, I have some better items that I'd like to sell at an auction!"
She makes money by selling things, and on the other hand, it's for the future business of Liuli Pavilion...
The man's eyes lit up, he grasped the key point, Mr. Ming just said there is something better?
So I couldn't wait to ask, "Sir, do you have any better ones?"
Yun Li nodded: "That's right! So, Master Nalan, can you hold the auction as scheduled? I can make up for the number of items you are short of!"
The man hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Ming, I need to discuss this matter with our boss! I will pass on your words! Please wait for good news."
"Okay, I'm in a hurry. If I don't hear from you this afternoon, I'll sell these items to someone else..."
The man was surprised, then smiled and said: "Mr. Ming really is..."
"Same here..."
Yunli took Baizhi and Yingtao out of Yunxuan Tower. It was still early and she didn't want to go back home so soon, so she took them to visit Zhao Momo in the east courtyard.
She took the opportunity to send Zhao Momo into the space, gave her a comprehensive physical examination before the operation, and tested her blood. All indicators returned to normal. She moved Zhao Momo out of the space, leaving behind enough spiritual spring water for three or four days, and asked the maid to feed Zhao Momo every day.
She had to find a time to perform surgery on Zhao Momo these days, and it was already afternoon when she finished arranging everything.

In Prince Yu's Mansion
After Yun Li left Yunxuan Tower, Nalan Xuan hurried to the palace to look for Prince Yu, and ran into An Ye who was also rushing back from outside.
"Hey~ Isn't this Dark Night? Long time no see! What lucrative task has your prince assigned you again?"
An Ye slapped Nalan Xuan's arm off his shoulder in disgust and said, "Master Nalan, don't put your arm around his shoulder. It's not good if someone sees us!"
"Tsk, do you think you're a woman? Are you sure others will misunderstand us?"
Hearing this, An Ye left quickly. He didn't want to be misunderstood. People in the palace were privately saying that Nalan Xuan was a homosexual... He didn't want to be talked about like this, so he hid in no time.
In the study, the Prince was sitting at his desk, reviewing military affairs.
"Your Majesty! I have something to report."
The King didn't even raise his head and said calmly, "What's the matter?"
"The Third Miss boarded a carriage at the Prime Minister's residence this morning, and I followed her secretly. The carriage stopped at the entrance of Yunxuan Tower, but it wasn't the Third Miss who got out!
Today, the Third Miss was wearing a white dress. The person who got off the carriage was wearing the same clothes as the Third Miss, but his face was different! It was a man! He was very handsome!
Although the two servants beside him had also changed their attire, I could recognize them after careful observation. They were the two maids beside the Third Young Lady, Yingtao and Baizhi!
As soon as he finished speaking, Nalan Xuan also came into the study and got straight to the point:
"Helian Chi, guess what treasures I saw in Yunxuan Tower today! Let me tell you, if Yunxuan Tower gets these three treasures, they will definitely fetch a sky-high price!
This Mr. Ming said he has a lot of good stuff! He wants our auction to go on as scheduled, so I came to ask for your opinion!
Helian Chi's eyes darkened as he stared at Nalan Xuan closely: "Mr. Ming?"
Nalan Xuan nodded: "Yes! This young man is very fair and clean-looking. Not to mention his appearance is no worse than mine! The hopscotch in his hand is quite interesting!"
"Pada" the brush in the king's hand fell on the table, and ink flowers appeared on the white paper.
The images in his mind played out one after another, and the two figures gradually intertwined. The answer was about to be revealed! The person disguised as a man that night was Yun Li!
Nangong Ming, Master Ming, Yunli, he murmured these three names
No wonder he searched the entire capital and almost the entire Yueqi Kingdom for so long but still couldn't find the woman from that night. He couldn't even find Nangong Ming...
Every time there is a clue, it is immediately lost...
It turns out the person was right under my nose, and it was the same person! That makes sense...
He couldn't help but laugh at himself. He was actually toyed with by a woman for so long.
"An Ye, withdraw everyone outside! No more searching!"
An Ye was shocked. After searching for so long and finally finding some clues, the prince was about to give up. Although he thought so in his heart, he could not disobey the prince's order.
"Yes! I obey your command! Then do you think I should follow the prince's third daughter secretly?"
After a long time, Yu Wangdao said, "Keep following!"
"Yes!" An Ye left the house
Nalan Xuan was completely confused and quipped, "What mission is An Ye on? What Third Young Miss? Helian Chi, why would you let a grown man follow a young woman? What? Did that girl dig up your family's ancestral graves?"
Helian Chi glanced at him and said, "If you don't know how to speak, shut up!"
Nalan Xuan curled his lips, sat down on a chair beside him, brought the tea on the table, took a sip, and asked, "What do you think about the auction?"
Yunli, Yunli, I really underestimated you! You've been playing me around for so long, how should I settle the score with you for that night?
Nalan Xuan saw Helian Chi, who hadn't answered him yet. He looked up and saw the King of Yu, who was sitting at the top of the table, with a sneer on his face, as if he was lost in thought...
"Hey, Helian Chi! What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about love? Thinking about women?"
The King came back to his senses, picked up the brush on the table, and hit him on the forehead without missing a beat.
"Shut up!"
Nalan Xuan took the brush without a care in the world and placed it on the table, leaning back in his chair with a nonchalant look. "I asked you a question, but you didn't answer for a long time! What do you think about the auction?"
"Then it will be held as scheduled!"
"You agree now? Don't you want to think about it? What if Mr. Ming doesn't have enough items and we can't come up with anything good for the time being? The auction will be ruined!"
The King asked casually, "Didn't you say he took three good things?"
His intuition told him that Yunli might have a lot of good things in her hands. She had given him the telescope at Prince Duan's mansion that day, and he saw that she didn't seem to feel any pain at all...
He actually knew everything about what happened that day in Prince Duan's Mansion. Such a bold, courageous and intelligent woman, but thinking about the things that happened before, he felt that she was very different from the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion he had investigated.
Yunli was very mysterious, like she was covered by a veil, making it impossible for him to see through her...
He despised himself at this moment. He had vowed before that he would catch the woman that night. Now that he knew that the woman that night was Yun Li, he felt that he should not have caught her.
What if he caught her? What to ask? What to say? Kill her? It seemed like he couldn't do any of these.
He unconsciously clenched his fists and sighed deeply... For the first time, he felt powerless.
And the woman who took advantage of him lived a happy life, with no burden in her heart.
Thinking of this, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He was unhappy with her but couldn't get rid of her reality...
