protect my lady

After stepping out of the Mu's mansion, the blush on Fu Feiyu's face eased a little, recalling what he promised just now, he couldn't help but cover his face.

God, what happened to her, she agreed to get married without even thinking about it, this is a major event in life!

Fu Feiyu's face was full of confusion, but there was joy in her eyes that she didn't even realize.

Fu Feiyu habitually seeks help from her senior and older sisters when encountering unsolvable problems, and it still does now.

After arriving at the inn where Ye Qingyi lived, Fu Feiyu didn't dare to hide anything this time, and explained everything in detail.

Including what Master Mu said to herself, she also recounted everything one by one.

"It's just like this." Fu Feiyu sat upright, quietly waiting for the education from her senior sister.

"Little Feiyu, think about it seriously, do you have any special feelings for that shepherd girl?" Ye Qingyi was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then asked after a while, "You have to know, getting married is not a child's play."

"I just think the shepherd girl is very nice, and I am very happy to be with her." Fu Feiyu frowned and thought, "It seems that I can't refuse the shepherd girl's request to me."

That's a mistake, Ye Qingyi sighed in his heart.

"You said that the shepherd girl's father asked about your family's situation some time ago?"

"Well, Master Mu seems to want to betroth Miss Shepherd to me." Fu Feiyu replied honestly, "Girl Shepherd is now eighteen, and the Mu family is already anxious about her marriage, and the current family property of the Mu family is very low. It's the shepherdess who is taking care of it."

In this way, this marriage is a bit interesting.

Unlike Fu Feiyu, Ye Qingyi spends most of her time in Yashan. As the successor of Yashan, she has been in contact with the outside world since she was very young, and she has seen many things.

"Ms. Shepherd is willing to marry you even though she knows you are a woman, which means she doesn't hate you, nor is she dissatisfied with your previous men's clothing." Ye Qingyi analyzed little by little, "Little Feiyu, you need to know that you are married. Not only will it be a hindrance to the shepherd girl's reputation, but it will also have a great impact on your future marriage."

There is another point that Ye Qingyi didn't say. Under such circumstances, if Mu Qingchen wants to get married, maybe he wants to use Fu Feiyu as a shield.

"My future marriage?" Fu Feiyu was taken aback, she really hadn't thought of this.

"Uncle and aunt will pick you up after you reach the crown, maybe at that time..." Ye Qingyi paused for a while, her junior sister's background is not ordinary, if she knew her identity, would she still be How to make such a decision?

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter much to me whether I get married or not, as long as I live happily." Fu Feiyu has never received any education in the three obediences and four virtues, she has always learned what she likes.

Getting married has never been a necessity for her, let alone a necessary path in life.

"Besides, it's not bad to live with the shepherd girl." Fu Feiyu added in a low voice, the shepherd girl is not only good-looking, but also has a good personality, and she is also so kind to herself.

"Marriage is not a child's play. If my uncle, aunt, and master have no objections, I will naturally support it." Ye Qingyi took a sip of tea and said slowly, "You should write to the master first, and read his old man's account first. mean."

"Then senior sister..." Fu Feiyu rubbed his hands, and approached Ye Qingyi with a flattering face, "Senior sister, teach me how to write."

Ye Qingyi raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you going to fetch a pen and paper?"

"Okay, thank you, Senior Sister!" Fu Feiyu quickly responded.

After Fu Feiyu left, Mu Qingchen also belatedly buried her face in her arms.

Really, I was like this just now, how can a girl like me let Fei Yu marry me so bluntly, really...

I'm too unreserved, Fei Yu won't think I'm too slutty.

"Miss, Miss." Cui Zhu shouted several times before calling Mu Qingchen's thoughts back.

"What's wrong?" Mu Qingchen raised his head, his face regained his usual calmness.

"Mr. Liu came to visit just now, and the master called you to entertain him." Cui Zhu replied.

"What is he here for?" Mu Qingchen's expression turned serious when he heard Liu Zizhao's arrival.

"It seems to be here to discuss business."

"Okay, get me a new dress."

Mu Qingchen changed into a darker color dress, carefully tied the jade pendant and the new "belt" before leaving the room.

"Miss Mu, it's been a long time since I saw you. Your complexion is getting better and better." Liu Zizhao greeted with a smile.

"Father, Mr. Liu." Mu Qingchen greeted in a neutral manner, and sat down on the right side of the first seat.

"Master Mu, I have received reliable news that the capital seems to intend to purchase a batch of Suzhou embroidery clothes for the nobles in the palace." Liu Zizhao said slowly while sipping tea, "The Mu family has always been excellent in Suzhou embroidery. As far as I know, many Suzhou embroidery masters serve the herdsmen, as long as we cooperate with this batch of orders, we will be safe."

The clothes given to the nobles in the palace must not be sloppy at all, and they have always been the best of the best. If the Mu family really wins this list, the benefits will be huge, needless to say.

However, is Liu Zizhao so kind?The Liu family also has many embroidery masters.

"I don't know what kind of cooperation method Mr. Liu is talking about?" Master Mu was a little tempted. If he could catch up with the royal family, the Mu Mansion would not be easy for anyone to provoke.

"Of course our Liu family has connections, and the Mu family has produced Suzhou embroidery." Liu Zizhao said with a smile, "As for the money, the two families will naturally share it equally."

Sure enough, if Wu Li didn't get up early, Liu Zizhao's calculation would be too good. The Liu family only needs to open their mouths, and the Mu family will be responsible for all the dirty work.

"Mr. Liu, this is unfair." Mu Qingchen frowned and said, "Since it is a cooperation between the two families, the Liu family should also send a few embroidery masters."

"No, no, the ones for the nobles in the palace are naturally the best. Those of my Liu family are not as skilled as the embroidery masters of the Mu family." Liu Zizhao shook his head and said, "I dare not accept this job, let alone Don’t dare to neglect the nobles in the palace.”

"Mr. Liu, I don't know where you heard the news. My shepherd family has never heard of it."

"Of course it's from my cousin."

The wife of the magistrate of Suzhou has passed away. Although Liu Zizhao's cousin is the magistrate's concubine, she may be promoted to be a concubine at some point.If the palace really had any plans, the prefect of Suzhou would indeed be the first to get the news, so it made sense for the Liu family to know the situation in advance.

Mu Qingchen quickly sorted out the context in his mind.

"I brought this news because of the cooperation between the Mu family and the Liu family for many years. If the Mu family is unwilling, I can only change to another partner." Liu Zizhao is not worried about his lion at all. A big mouth will make the shepherd unhappy.

Behind him is the fourth-rank magistrate, as long as the Mu family is not confused, he will know how to treat him.

Sure enough, as soon as Liu Zizhao said his words, Master Mu stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Mr. Liu can immediately think that the Mu family is sincere, but the nobles in the palace have very high requirements for clothing. The few masters in my house alone may not be enough. I wonder if Mr. Liu can help. "Master Mu weighed the gains and losses, and finally chose to take a step back and cooperate with the Liu family.

"Of course, the expenses and losses caused by this will be borne by my pastor."

Liu Zizhao was holding a teacup in his hand, shaking the tea leaves in the cup with his gaze.

"Master Mu, the embroidery master is not something I can just wave and leave. If I want to invite one, the cost..." Liu Zizhao said slowly.

"Each person, I will take out 1000 taels as a subsidy for the masters." Master Mu said while stroking his beard.

"The masters are getting old, we might as well not bother."

"2000 taels may be more suitable."

"The masters are all married and established people."

"3000 taels."

"Master Mu is indeed a cool person. I will tell my father in a while to invite some masters to come out of the mountain." After the price reached the level he was satisfied with, Liu Zizhao let go.

Once the money matter was settled, the next thing would be easy. After half an hour of discussion, the Liu family and the Mu family finalized a preliminary plan.

After sending Liu Zizhao away, Master Mu was relieved. Fortunately, he didn't marry his daughter to Liu Zizhao. Otherwise, according to Liu Zizhao's plan, the family property of the Mu family would be changed in three to five years.

"Father, Liu Zizhao's demands are too much."

"Let him go, as long as what he said is true, my shepherd will take the list in the palace, and there will be more places to benefit in the future."

Mu Qingchen remained silent, would Liu Zizhao really bring such a good thing to his door?

Although the Liu family and the Mu family cooperated nominally, it was the Mu family who contributed money and effort.Thinking about it from another angle, in case something goes wrong, it's Mujia who made the mistake.

Master Mu didn't think much about it, he just told Mu Qingchen to take a long-term view, and the Mu family could afford the tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Three days later, Yashan.

Ye Chen touched his long gray beard, and slowly took out the letter from under the carrier pigeon and began to browse.

"Sure enough, he has grown up." Ye Chen put down the letter and sighed.

A baby who was still in its infancy 18 years ago can talk about marriage in a blink of an eye.

Ye Chen stroked his beard, spread out a new piece of letter paper, held a brush in his right hand, and began to write.

Minister Ye Chenqi: The second prince has gone down the mountain to practice for more than five months. The old minister watched the sky at night and noticed that the second prince's red luan was moving...

After writing two pages of letter paper eloquently, Ye Chen dried it carefully, then took out the envelope and sealed it.

"Fourth."

"Subordinates are here."

"Go and deliver this letter, and deliver it yourself." Ye Chen ordered.

"As ordered."
