Du Yinyun took out several silver notes and handed them to He Yunxiao. "Young master, this is 150,000 taels. As for the remaining 100,000 taels, Miss Li said that she will send someone to take over the bank in a few days to make the payment."
He Yunxiao said, "Take it yourself. What about your sister?"
"Miss Li asked a few questions, then stopped."
"Not asking anymore?"
"Hmm." Du Yinyun carefully recalled the events of the afternoon and said, "Miss Li probably thinks that my sister is not a threat."
He Yunxiao stroked his chin. "That's definitely her style. She's looking down on Ziruo like this now, but she'll probably be shocked when she hears about the marriage proposal."
Du Yinyun asked, "Does the young master have a solution that satisfies both sides?"
He Yunxiao shrugged and said, "It's not that easy. Your sister and Miss Li are both smart people; they're not so easily fooled."
Du Yinyun had no idea what to do, so she just sat there obediently and listened to He Yunxiao.
He Yunxiao continued, "Yinyun, we still need you to mediate this matter."
"The pronunciation is entirely at your command, young master."
He Yunxiao said, "Once the news of my marriage proposal to the Fan family spreads, Miss Li will definitely be restless. She will most likely talk to you, and once she has figured out your sister's methods, she will then take action against Ziruo."
"What should we do then?" Compared to the eldest princess, Du Meimei still favored Fan Jiejie.
He Yunxiao smiled knowingly and said, "After its defeat last time, the Yan Kingdom lay low for ten years before attacking the Qi Kingdom again. With a thunderous strike, it almost broke through the capital of Yin."
Du Yinyun's eyes lit up, and she said, "Does Young Master want me to exaggerate my elder sister's strength? To make the Princess wary?"
He Yunxiao held up two fingers. "On one hand, you need to exaggerate the relationship between Ziruo and me, as well as Ziruo's strength. Ziruo was originally just a schoolteacher with some connections in the academy. She was good at literature but not martial arts. However, since she joined the army, her prestige in the army is not low, and she has more than 100,000 loyal new Chu soldiers. This is enough to make Miss Li think twice. On the other hand, you need to infiltrate the Princess's camp and offer her advice."
With just a little guidance, the clever Du sister immediately understood.
"Does the young master want me to approach Miss Li under the pretext that 'my sister is jealous and treats me unfairly,' and then become his eyes and ears around Miss Li?"
"Exactly."
Sister Du chuckled after she finished speaking. "It's clearly just a matter for young ladies. As long as you ask, young master, how could they refuse? Why beat around the bush like this?"
He Yunxiao sighed, "Sigh, if only they were all as well-behaved as Yinyun."
The aloof beauty winked playfully at He Yunxiao. Normally keeping her distance from strangers, she now took the initiative to get close to He Yunxiao and whispered, "This humble woman is willing to serve you forever, sir."
He Yunxiao coughed lightly, "Cough, let's eat first, let's eat first."
These two really can't do without Soul-Devouring Pills.
