"Wow."
"I'm so envious, I need to find one quickly."
"I found it too!"
As more and more jade pendants were found, the customers became increasingly anxious, and those who heard the news from the surrounding area also rushed over to join in the excitement. In no time, Sihai Yixiu became the busiest embroidery shop in the capital.
By evening, most of the people in the shop had left.
Su Yunyan rubbed her sore neck, but smiled and said, "Everyone must be exhausted. Tonight it's my treat!"
Lanxi slumped onto the chair, her hands hanging limply at her sides: "Oh, Yunyan, you have to give me something good to eat to replenish my energy, I'm exhausted."
Su Yunyan looked at her: "Alright, alright, you little glutton."
"Hey, where's Xiaohua today?"
"Yeah, where's Xiaohua? Today is such an important day, she should definitely be here, given her personality. Why haven't we heard from her at all?"
"I'll send someone to the Prince's residence to inquire."
"good."
Yan Mufeng turned and left the mansion, only to see Xu Jiao'er running towards him anxiously: "Something terrible has happened! Sister Xiaohua is in trouble!"
Everyone was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"For some reason, the Second Prince suddenly said that Sister Xiaohua had gone mad, rushed into Lord Wang's house to kill people, and even tried to assassinate the Prince. Lord Wang's eldest daughter was frightened, and in order to appease Lord Wang, the Second Prince wanted to marry that Wang Wan'er!"
"Huh? Lost your mind? Taking a concubine?"
Lanxi stared wide-eyed at Xu Jiao'er, inwardly cursing Mu Anyu from head to toe: Sure enough, no man is any good. One second he's putting on a show of being sincere and affectionate, and the next second he's scheming to take a concubine!
"This old lady doesn't believe that Sister Xiaohua has suddenly gone mad. I think it's because Mu Anyu wants to take a concubine but is afraid that others will say he's a heartless man, so he resorted to such a vicious trick."
Su Yunyan frowned: "Let's forget about those stinky men for now. How is Sister Xiaohua? Is she in the manor?"
Xu Jiao'er took a breath and continued, "It seems that the Second Prince has placed Sister Xiaohua under house arrest and is not allowing outsiders to visit her."
"He's gone too far!"
Yan Mufeng drew his sword with a whoosh: "I'm going to enter the manor today, what can he do to me?"
Lanxi jumped up from her chair, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to storm into the Second Prince's residence with Yan Mufeng.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped out, they ran into Mu Anwen and Mu Anxiang, who had come to pick them up to go home.
"What's gotten into this rush?"
As soon as Mu Anwen arrived at the door, he saw Yan Mufeng walking out menacingly with a sword in hand, and he almost stabbed himself.
"Xiao Hua has been placed under house arrest by Mu Anyu. I'm going to his residence to rescue her."
Mu Anwen looked at Mu Anxiang, who had come with him, and asked, "What does Sixth Brother think?"
Before Mu Anxiang could speak, Lan Xi rushed out and said irritably, "What does he know? He'd love to marry all the girls from Yichun Garden."
Mu Anxiang exclaimed, "Lanxi, you should speak from your conscience! I may be a flower, but your position as the principal wife will never change!"
Lanxi glared at him and said, "Get lost!"
Mu Anxiang was about to speak again when Mu Anwen spoke first: "If it were the second brother in the past, perhaps we would have been able to break through the gate because there were more of us. But now, he is the emperor's most favored prince. It would be inappropriate to force our way through."
Yan Mufeng couldn't stand men who spouted grand theories but ended up being indecisive and hesitant to do anything.
"So you just don't dare? Mu Anyu is powerful and influential, and you don't dare to offend him?"
She looked into Mu Anwen's eyes and said, word by word.
The atmosphere instantly turned as cold as if water droplets had condensed in the air.
