Suddenly, the courtyard gate was gently pushed open, and a familiar figure slowly walked in.
Lin Yun looked up and saw that it was the Emperor. She quickly put down her work and stepped forward to greet him, saying, "Your Majesty, you have arrived."
Emperor Yongzheng smiled slightly: "How could I not come today for the opening of your shop?"
Lin Yun felt a warmth in her heart and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
She looked up, and the two met eyes and smiled at each other.
His gaze lingered for a moment on the jade hair ornament in her hair, and the corners of his lips turned up slightly.
Yongzheng walked to her side, his gaze softening: "Was today alright?"
She nodded shyly: "Thanks to His Majesty, everything went smoothly. Ninth Prince and Eighth Prince also came, and we even reached a cooperation agreement."
Yongzheng raised an eyebrow, feigning ignorance: "Oh? What kind of cooperation?"
Lin Yun briefly explained the contents of the contract. After listening, Yongzheng shook his head helplessly: "You girl, you are too bold to expose the Ninth Prince's thoughts to his face."
Lin Yun's eyes sparkled, and she smiled, "I'm just telling the truth."
Emperor Yongzheng reached out and gently stroked her hair, his eyes full of affection: "I know you are thinking of the bigger picture, but you should still be careful in the future and not put yourself in danger."
Lin Yun nodded obediently: "I will remember."
At this moment, Manager Chen hurriedly entered the backyard, saw Yongzheng, and immediately knelt down to pay his respects: "This servant greets Your Majesty!"
Emperor Yongzheng waved his hand: "No need for formalities."
Manager Chen stood up and excitedly said to the two of them, "Your Majesty, Miss, today's accounts have been settled. The total income is over 1,500 taels. Although it is not as good as the opening sales in Shangyang County, it is still quite good."
Lin Yun smiled slightly: "It's alright. Most people in the capital are not familiar with our Yunxiang Pavilion yet. Once they know the benefits, business will naturally get better and better."
Emperor Yongzheng also comforted her, saying, "Yun'er's rouge is of superior quality. Given time, she will surely become famous throughout the capital."
Lin Yun looked at Yongzheng gratefully: "Thank you for your kind words, Your Majesty."
Yongzheng glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late, I should return to the palace."
Lin Yun bowed and said, "Respectfully seeing off Your Majesty."
Yongzheng turned and left, his figure gradually disappearing into the night.
