Chapter 82 Hot Spring Villa

It snowed in early winter, and the entire palace was covered in a layer of silver.

Mudan was very busy. The more accounts she dealt with, the more uneasy she felt.

Early that morning, Mudan came to Jiang Jiu's room with the account book.

"Madam, the account of Yiye Pianzhou has been transferred to 6+3, but many shops are still in the hands of Cheng Dazhang and his people. Although Madam said that they were all given to them, this is a large sum of money."

Jiang Jiu simply flipped through it and said, "Give it to me. If you don't, I will die. The property left to me by my grandmother and mother is more than enough, and I don't have the ability to protect it. Between money and life, I choose life."

Mudan was not convinced: "Madam, don't you have a prince? Except for Princess Qiyang, who else dares to touch Madam?"

Jiang Jiu took a deep breath. "But in Sucheng, the Ninth Prince couldn't protect me. Princess Qiyang took advantage of him not paying attention and kidnapped me. I didn't even have a chance to fight back."

"What if we go to the capital in the future? In the capital, the Ninth Prince can hardly protect himself, let alone protect me."

Aunt Qian fell into deep thought: "Madam is right. Remember when the boss was here, no one dared to touch her. No matter how much money she had, no one dared to rob her."

"It's not because the boss is so powerful. She does have several powerful guards and a powerful weapon. Now that Madam mentioned that, the treasure that Princess Qiyang is looking for could be that powerful weapon."

Jiang Jiu was speechless, she had thought of this a long time ago.

When people mention treasures, they quickly think of things like gold, silver, and jewelry.

Who would have guessed it was a weapon?

"Isn't it said that the thing is in my grandparents' old house? We can find it if we go back and look for it."

"Oh, by the way, I remember Aunt Qian said that there is hot spring water in my grandfather's house. It is my grandfather's favorite place to stay in winter. I think we should pack up and move there."

Madam Qian thought about it carefully and said, "Of course you can. I have been to that place several times. I will go there again later and make the arrangements."

Hot spring water is a hot spring. Jiang Jiu felt that this senior who traveled through time not only knew how to make money, but also knew how to enjoy life. He built a villa next to the hot spring, which was simply too comfortable.

The winter in Sioux City is not too cold, but it is not warm at all. After it snows, the snow hangs on the trees for a short time, and it is cold both inside and outside the house.

"Madam, the prince has woken up. He is calling you to serve him."

Lu Yunyang's maid came to call Jiang Jiu.

In the palace, Jiang Jiu is still the prince's concubine.

Nanny Qian and Mudan both went back, and Xia Zhi was also sent out to do some work.

Jiang Jiu packed up and went straight to Lu Yunyang's room. Lu Yunyang was already dressed and couldn't help but complain when he saw Jiang Jiu.

"Why did you come just now? I woke up and couldn't see you. I was panicking."

Ever since Princess Qi Yang captured Jiang Jiu for no reason, Lu Yunyang no longer felt safe and always wanted to keep Jiang Jiu by his side all the time.

Jiang Jiu pondered for a moment, took over the work from the maids, and carefully dressed Lu Yunyang.

"I wonder what the main thing of Qiyang County is?"

Lu Yunyang also heard about the prison incident. Jiang Jiu said that he would give her all his money, but she still didn't want it. She wanted a treasure that belonged to Jiang Jiu's maternal grandfather.

However, more than 20 years have passed and Jiang Jiu still doesn't know what the treasure is.

The clues found from the court were also very limited. The only person who knew about it was Jiang Jiu's father Chang Mingyuan.

However, when it came to matters concerning the Jiang family, Chang Mingyuan was completely evasive, and knew nothing about anything. His mouth was tighter than an oyster and nothing could be done to pry it open.

The more this happened, the more Lu Yunyang felt that this thing was extraordinary.

But what is it?

"We already have a clue, right in your grandparents' villa. Let's go look for it."

Jiang Jiu nodded: "I heard that there is a hot spring in my grandparents' villa, and the environment is also good. Why don't we spend this winter there?"

Lu Yunyang blinked his peach blossom eyes and readily agreed: "Okay, let's have someone pack it up and go there tomorrow."

In fact, King Qi also had a hot spring villa in Sucheng, which had a better environment, but there were no hot springs in King Qi's hot spring villa.

Many years ago, when Lu Yunyang knew there was a hot spring in Suzhou, he wanted to go and see it, but he found out that the hot spring in Suzhou had been bought by someone.

And the person who bought it was Jiang Yuan.

Although he is the King of Qi and the entire fiefdom belongs to him, since he has set his eyes on that pool of hot springs, the owner of the small boat should personally give up the place and offer it to him with both hands.

Who knew that after Jiang Yuan passed away, she had no intention of selling her small boat.

Lu Yunyang was still young at the time, and he hinted to the Suzhou prefect several times. The prefect was also in a dilemma, thinking that without the title deed, he could just seize the property by force.

The next day, the weather cleared up and the first snow seemed to have not fallen at all, disappearing all day.

The prince's carriage set out from Suzhou to the villa in a grand procession.

There were several carriages, a large number of maids and servants, three layers of guards inside and outside, and the necessary support for the King of Qi.

Jiang Jiu accompanied the prince to the carriage. The coachman brought the stirrups and Lu Yunyang got on first. Before he sat properly, he stretched out his hand to Jiang Jiu behind him.

If it were another woman, being doted on by the prince like this, she would have been extremely happy and grateful.

Instead, Jiang Jiu felt it was natural, so he held Lu Yunyang's hand and got into the carriage with him.

"The prince's carriage is different from others. It is spacious, comfortable and warm."

Lu Yunyang chuckled and handed the handwarmer to Jiang Jiu.

"I don't know why you are so afraid of the cold. It's just winter and your hands and feet are so cold. What will you do if you go to the capital?"

Jiang Jiu shrugged: "It's cool."

Beijing? Is it necessary to go there?

Lu Yunyang leaned lazily on the soft pillow, stretching out his long legs, almost occupying the entire carriage.

Jiang Jiu sat aside, pulled out the tea table from the carriage, put the snacks on it, and pushed Lu Yunyang's legs aside.

"Don't take up space. This big carriage can't accommodate you."

Who knew Lu Yunyang would pat his side with a playful smile and say, "Come, lie down here."

Jiang Jiu gave him a speechless look and ignored him.

Lu Yunyang stood up and sat down disappointedly: "You, why don't you know how to please me? I am the prince after all, why do I feel the same as Zhao Li in your eyes?"

He is a royal relative and the Prince of Qi.

Other women were always flattering, gentle and considerate to him.

Only she kept a distance from him, no matter whether he was Lu Yunyang or King Qi, and had a strong sense of boundaries.

Lu Yunyang even suspected that if he took off all his clothes and stood in front of her, she would at most compliment him on his good figure and would not have any romantic thoughts about him.

This thought made him feel uncomfortable. Who did she want to give her heart to?

Jiang Jiu poured him a cup of hot tea: "It is precisely because there are too many women to please, so I am not a big deal. Zhao Li is different. He is my bodyguard, just mine."

Lu Yunyang's face darkened slightly, and he snorted coldly: "You are just a guard, and you are not worthy to be compared with this king."

Jiang Jiu was speechless: "It's you who want to compete, not me. In my eyes, you are all equal. Lu Yunyang, what's wrong with you today? You look weird."

Lu Yunyang raised the corner of his lips, gently pulled Jiang Jiu's wrist, and pulled him into his arms.

"If I become your real husband, will you only be nice to me?"
