Chapter 9: Can't Let Her Raise
Feng Jinyu immediately shook her head and said, "Huaiqing doesn't have it, don't let her know, Yunzhu, this jade is very important, you must not lose it, you have to promise mother."
Mo Yunzhu looked at her nervous mother and felt something was wrong.
"Okay, I promise." Mo Yunzhu's obedience made Feng Jinyu feel relieved, and he put it on her personally.
After putting it on, she was still holding the blood jade, her eyes full of mist.
"Mother, what is the meaning of this blood jade?" Mo Yunzhu was really curious.
Feng Jinyu immediately smiled and said, "This jade is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is good for your health and can also protect you from harm throughout your life. Just promise me not to take it off."
"Okay, I understand." Mo Yunzhu was even more confused, but she didn't ask any more questions. If her mother really wanted to say something, she would tell her.
But what she found magical was that this piece of blood jade actually gave her a warm feeling after she put it on.
The temperature in October has dropped and the wind feels cool on her face. This piece of jade really makes her feel warm and comfortable.
It is indeed a good jade.
Soon, Mo Yunzhu returned to Yaoguangyuan with a silver note worth 10,000 taels.
"Miss!" Someone came into the yard.
Mo Yunzhu walked out immediately and saw that it was Butler Qin who had brought people here.
"Miss, these are some good seedlings that we found at the Human Trafficking Center. See if you want to keep any of them."
Because of the Shaoyao incident, Mo Yunzhu had previously removed all the servants from her yard and replaced them with a new group.
Mo Yunzhu nodded, walked from under the eaves to the yard, and looked closely at the ten men and ten women in front of her.
Suddenly I found a face that looked familiar, but I don’t know where I have seen it before.
"Miss Mo, my name is Yuan Qing. I was originally a servant of the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple." Seeing Mo Yunzhu staring at him, Yuan Qing hurriedly knelt on one knee to introduce himself.
Mo Yunzhu immediately remembered Zhang Fengyi, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, a drunkard who was not doing his job properly. She was framed by Mo Huaiqing that day. It was such an obvious conspiracy, but that guy couldn't see it and even jumped out to scold her.
"Yes, I have some impression. How come you..."
"My lady, I was there that day at the Prince's Mansion. Later, Master Zhang insulted and scolded her all the way. I muttered something and was heard by the Master. He then beat me up and sold me to his pawnbroker." There was sadness in Yuan Qing's eyes.
"Oh? What did you say?" Mo Yunzhu asked curiously.
"The servant just muttered that what happened that day was clearly a conspiracy to frame the eldest lady and Prince Lan, and the young master became furious..."
Yuan Qing pulled up his sleeves, revealing marks from being whipped. The scabs had just formed and they looked painful.
"Thank you for speaking for us. Please stay." Mo Yunzhu said with a smile.
Yuan Qing was stunned for a moment, then he knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Miss." Then he immediately stood up and ran to stand on the right side behind Mo Yunzhu.
"Butler Qin, leave the one who signed the death contract behind and take the others away."
Butler Qin agreed, and finally five people stayed.
"I only ask two words from you, and that is loyalty. If I find out who is disloyal and has no mercy, I will beat him to death. Do you understand?"
Mo Yunzhu looked at the two men and three women who stayed behind and spoke sternly and sharply.
The five of them immediately knelt down and agreed.
"Yuan Qing, you arrange for them to do their work first." Mo Yunzhu said to Yuan Qing, "I will arrange it later."
"Yes, Miss." Yuan Qing was very excited and agreed immediately.
Half an hour later, Mo Yunzhu saw that Yuan Qing had arranged several people properly.
The personal maid she sent seemed to be quite clever and quick-witted.
"Yuan Qing, go and do something for me first." Mo Yunzhu was very satisfied and called Yuan Qing over. "Send this 10,000 taels of silver to Prince Lan's Mansion. Can it be done?"
Yuan Qing was stunned. He didn't expect to be so valued just after arriving.
"I will definitely deliver it." Yuan Qing immediately said seriously.
"How good are your boxing skills?" Mo Yunzhu asked again.
"My lady, I have learned some martial arts, so I have no problem dealing with a few ordinary people. If they are guards, I should be able to beat two of them." Yuan Qing shook his head.
"Okay, remember, from now on you belong to me, Mo Yunzhu, do you understand?" Mo Yunzhu said meaningfully.
Yuan Qing was surprised again, and then said firmly: "Yes! Miss, you are my only master!"
"Well, go ahead." Mo Yunzhu waved her hand.
At Prince Lan's Mansion, when Hao Jiang received 12,000 taels of silver, he was really excited and moved. He didn't expect that Mo Yunzhu would really send it to him, and so quickly!
"Give it back immediately!" After hearing what Hao Jiang said, Jun Huolan looked at the banknotes on the table and became so angry that his handsome face turned dark, as if a blood vessel was about to burst at any moment.
"Master, the princess said that you are the one who borrowed it first." Hao Jiang said anxiously.
“Haojiang, have you grown strong enough to make your own decisions?” Jun Huolan exuded a strong and sinister aura.
Hao Jiang knelt on the ground with red eyes and said, "I dare not."
"Don't dare? I think you dare. Is she your master now, or am I your master? Return her immediately, or get out of Prince Lan's Mansion!"
"I will return it immediately." Hao Jiang stood up, picked up the banknote and turned to leave, but his back looked a little bleak, which made Jun Huolan feel a little uncomfortable.
When Hao Jiang walked out of the eaves, he heard a sentence in his ears: "I am a man, how can I let her support me? There will be money tonight."
When Mo Yunzhu received the 12,000 taels of silver note returned by Prince Lan's Mansion, she just smiled and said nothing more.
It seems that the sick handsome man has a lot of self-esteem.
Over the next three days, Mo Yunzhu took Yuan Qing on leisurely strolls around the capital, and a tacit understanding between the two of them began to develop between them.
Yuan Qing felt that the eldest lady was smart and lively, had a good personality, and was extremely nice to him, which made him more determined to follow the eldest lady for the rest of his life.
They went to the drugstore, the armory, and the grocer and bought a lot of things.
There were many strange things among them, and Yuan Qing had no idea what the young lady bought them for.
But he knew that the eldest lady was making love in her room every night, often until late at night.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Mo Yunzhu, carrying a larger waist bag than before, and Yuan Qing, carrying a few bags of medicinal herbs, got off the carriage and came to Prince Lan's Mansion.
The steward of Prince Lan's mansion is Eunuch Zhao who was sent from the palace. The servants in the mansion were all sent by the palace's Internal Affairs Department within the past month. There are also 18 soldiers from the Yulin Army who are temporarily protecting Prince Lan.
Eunuch Zhao had been waiting at the door with several servants. When they saw Mo Yunzhu coming, they immediately greeted her with a smile.
"Miss Mo, please come in."
"Thank you, eunuch. Here are some medicinal herbs that are good for your health. I use them to make soup for you. There are also some small things. Share them with everyone." Mo Yunzhu instructed.
Eunuch Zhao's eyes lit up and he accepted the thing from Yuan Qing's hand. He didn't expect that he would start to win people's hearts before the princess even entered the house.
Hao Jiang appeared soon and Eunuch Zhao retreated. He glanced at Yuan Qing, felt that he looked familiar, and frowned slightly.
After all, Hao Jiang was there that day, so Mo Yunzhu immediately explained with a smile.
"Zhang Fengyi, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple, humph." Hao Jiang sneered.
Yuan Qing immediately said to Mo Yunzhu awkwardly, "Miss, Young Master Zhang was jealous of Prince Lan's appearance and he kept mocking Prince Lan that day."
Mo Yunzhu nodded and said, "Believe me, those who seek their own death will soon be punished."
When she reached the gate of Xuanji Courtyard, Mo Yunzhu heard continuous coughing and her face changed.
