She really is something else; the people she associates with are no ordinary people!
Hong Xiaoduo received Mu Rongjing's gaze, and with a slight smile, the three of them entered the living room together.
"Jin Gui'er, go brew a pot of Hong Xiao Niangzi's Jiande white tea, Baihao Yinzhen, to entertain the young master," Lan Zechen ordered loudly after taking his seat.
I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted to tell this young master Mu that Hong Xiaoduo's relationship with him was not casual. She was able to stay with him and even gave him rare and fine tea that he couldn't buy with a lot of money.
Hong Xiaoduo was speechless after hearing this. She thought to herself, "How old are you, Lord Lan? Why do you still have the mentality of a child?"
“If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten something. Miss Hong, when you visited my residence in the capital last time, you gave my father that tea, West Lake Longjing? Do you still have any? If so, I’d be so bold as to ask you for some more. My father loved it so much after drinking it that he couldn’t bear to drink the remaining half-can. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any even after offering a lot of money.” Mu Rongjing said to Hong Xiaoduo with a smile.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the two people in front of her and was speechless. The idiom "Sleeping Dragon and Young Phoenix" automatically popped into her mind.
“I’ll check my luggage later to see if I still have any tea. If I do, please take it back to the Marquis. May I ask what brings you here, Young Master? Is there any progress on the case of the disaster relief grain?” Hong Xiaoduo quickly asked.
"Not yet. It was your Brother Fan who said he would invite you to a restaurant tonight, so I came along," Mu Rongjing replied, picking up the Baihao Yinzhen tea that Jin Gui had just poured for her. To be honest, the aroma of the tea was fresh and lively, and the tea soup was sweet and smooth on the palate. She was quite generous to this Lan Pavilion Master!
He wasn't in a hurry to solve the disaster relief grain case, since Prefect Ye himself acted as if he hadn't done anything wrong and wasn't afraid of anything.
I haven't restricted him in any way, and so far, Prefect Ye's official prestige and reputation haven't been affected at all.
I was in the mood to host a banquet for her and Tian Shu this afternoon! Let's just leave this case as it is for now. That way, she won't leave this place for the time being, and I can use Fan Wu's connections to find excuses to see her every day.
"I'll treat you to dinner tonight. Actually, it's fine if you tell me first, Your Highness. We've found out the truth about the case of the moldy relief grain in Jiaozhou City."
"So, once the concrete evidence arrives in the next few days, we'll be leaving this place," Hong Xiaoduo said.
Although there were still a few days left, Hong Xiaoduo felt that plans could not keep up with changes, so she decided to host the banquet first.
In the past, it was always the Crown Prince and Brother Fan who hosted banquets for her and the children. That was because she didn't have much money in her pocket, so she didn't want to suffer for the sake of saving face.
Things are different now. She's quite wealthy now, so it's only right that she reciprocates by treating others to a meal.
"What? You've found out the truth?" Murong Jing asked incredulously...
