Man and wife counterattack

In the private room on the third floor of Yaoxuan——

One wall is a crescent window, and the other wall is hung with a painting, which is a vast sea. It is said that the painting was made by Yu An, the founder of Yaoxuan, and the original painting was hidden in the palace hundreds of years ago. This painting was drawn by the painters with reference to the real one. A total of 79 painters painted hundreds of paintings. Therefore, every private room of Yaoxuan has this painting.

A very beautiful painting.

It is also a beautiful and clean painting, but at the end of the sea, there is a vaguely painted palace gate.

The gate of the palace is reflected on the sea, and the color is red. At first glance, it looks like the last touch of the setting sun, but if you look closely, you can find that it is a gate of the palace.

You Xuan stood in front of the painting and looked at it curiously for a while, and suddenly heard someone say——

"Have you read the article about Xu Guo written by the second son of Mu? It's wonderful."

It was Xiaoxin Wang Xu Feng, who had just arrived, and after saying this with a smile, he said to Mu Jue, "Second Young Master, I promised this king to write an article to celebrate the prime minister's birthday. It's been a few days , Second Young Master can start writing?"

Mu Jue nodded politely, but first pointed at You Xuandao, "Your Highness, this is my wife, You Xuan."

Pointing to Xu Feng, the little letter king, "This is the little letter king."

Xiaoxin Wang Xu Feng is as tall as You Xuan, but his body is good, he is a gentleman, he is like a tree facing the wind, and he has the pride of a royal child.

You Xuan saluted a little cautiously, "Greetings to King Xiaoxin."

Xu Feng stopped him indifferently, "Second madam, you don't need to be too polite. In the past few days, the king and the second son have known each other, and he has mentioned you to me a lot. You are very good at business. I asked you out of curiosity," he said. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said meaningfully, "You helped Jiang's Rouge Mansion make a lot of money, and the business of the jewelry store in Mu's Mansion opposite has been greatly affected. Are you not afraid of... Mu's Mansion?"

He investigated people in private, but mentioned it openly, and even mentioned Mu's residence in front of Mu Jue, a person surnamed Mu.

You Xuan smiled slightly, "It doesn't matter. I just want to make some money."

Anyway, his surname is not Mu.

Xu Feng was taken aback, laughed twice, and whispered to Mu Jue, "No wonder you were eaten to death by your wife, and you didn't even save any private money."

Mu Jue's expression was cold and unmoved.

You Xuan also heard it, and only belatedly remembered that from the past in the Zhefengyuan in the Mu Mansion, to now... the monthly regulations that Mu Jue can receive and the manuscript fees earned by staying up late and working hard to write articles seem to be really like... ...I gave it all to myself?

"..."

After a while, the waiter from Yaoxuan came in with tea and snacks. The tea was the excellent Biluochun, and the dessert was also the signature here, Peach Crisp.

Xu Feng took a mouthful of peach cakes, which were crispy and fragrant, and took another sip of tea before he said, "Second Young Master, when will the article I asked you to help write before be finished?"

Mu Jue put down his teacup, frowned slightly and said, "Your Highness is in such a hurry?"

The prime minister's birthday is about two months away.

Xu Feng seemed to be concerned about You Xuan's presence, so he didn't say much, he just said vaguely, "My father told me today that I will leave for the imperial city in ten days, and the imperial city... the end of the year, early Go and have a look."

There is no hurry to congratulate the prime minister on his birthday.

What is urgent is something else.

Mu Jue said indifferently, "Within five days at the latest."

Xu Feng said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "I'm running out of time, but the quality of the article is better than the one you wrote before, which is about Xu Guojiangshan in your eyes, otherwise, I won't have the face to show my shame. "

Mu Jue's tone became even colder, as if he was not afraid of offending the little Xin Wang at all, "Your Highness, there is no doubt about the employment."

Xu Feng laughed, and changed the subject, "Young Master You, are you going to Lengzhou with Mu Jue after the next year?"

You Xuan nodded and said yes.

Xu Feng said again, "Lengzhou is not bad. It's better than the small place like Phoenix Sea City. It's the busiest place besides the imperial city. With your skills, it's estimated that you will be able to gain a firm foothold in Lengzhou soon."

You Xuan smiled, but it could be seen that Xiaoxin Wang Xufeng valued Mu Jue very much, and his attitude towards him was dispensable, but after all, Mu Jue was there...

But You Xuan didn't care either.

He changed the subject calmly, and mentioned the painting on the wall, Yao Xuan's signature painting, so the subject changed.

After about half an hour.

A guard knocked on the door of the elegant room and said, "Your Highness, there are some matters in the palace..."

Xu Feng put down the empty teacup with some regrets, and said to You Xuandao, "You are right, the story of three people becoming a tiger, with occasional additions of spices, will become another different story. Your idea is really powerful. Ben Wang Pei admires."

After he finished speaking, he got up, thought of something again, patted You Xuan on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Please, Mr. You, one thing, five at the latest, no, for your sake, within eight days , Mu Jue finished writing that article and sent it to this king, this article is very important to this king, please keep an eye on him and let him finish writing it earlier."

You Xuangang nodded.

Xu Feng added in a wicked low voice, "Your husband, Mu Jue, is a tough guy outside. Last time at the poetry meeting at Yaoxuan, he burst into tears for two or three scholars, but those who are afraid of the inside Very, he didn't even dare to go home early, saying that you were still outside, Yao Xuan was closed that day, and he was still waiting in the carriage outside, saying that he was waiting for you, afraid that you might not be able to find him."

-

On the way back, You Xuan took Mu Jue to buy some new rice paper, the most expensive kind.

You Xuan stood in front of the counter, waiting for the staff to pack the rice paper, and first said, "It's snowing outside, pack it tightly, and don't get the rice paper wet."

The guy nodded repeatedly.

You Xuan hesitated for a while, then asked the shopkeeper for the best pen and ink in the store.

After the article is written, it will be presented to the prime minister for reading.

Mu Jue's article is well written, and the pen, ink and paper can't be inferior.

After You Xuan paid the money, he said to Mu Jue, "What article did King Xiaoxin ask you to write?"

Mu Jue said his name, and it was similar to the "Xu Guo Jiangshan in My Eyes" he wrote before, but this time the focus is on the situation of Phoenix Sea City, and specifically, You Xuan listened to it for a long time, I didn't remember a few words.

You Xuan was a little nervous, "Writing articles is too difficult, you should write well these few days."

Mu Jue said with a half-smile, "It's not difficult, I wrote a little bit yesterday."

You Xuan stopped asking, and said after a while, "People are really different. I don't even want to read articles. You can find time to write scripts while writing articles."

Mu Jue said indifferently, "It's easy."

"..."

After leaving the bookstore selling pens, inks, papers and inkstones, Mu Jue suddenly said, "Let's go around first."

You Xuan was lowering his head and arranging his fox fur belt, he was stunned when he heard this, "Aren't you going back to write articles?"

Mu Jue looked at him calmly, and sneered, "I can finish writing tomorrow morning." Then he calmly took You Xuan's hand, and said to himself: "When I first came to Phoenix Sea City, I said that we would go around together. , I'm finally free, let's go."

You Xuan's hand tightened, and he held the opponent's hand back.

The north of the city is very lively.

You Xuan bought two packs of fried chestnuts in sugar on the side of the street. After learning about Dahao’s table, they shared a pack of fried chestnuts in sugar. He and Mu Jue ate a pack together. They ate while walking. Xuan was thirsty again, so he gave Dahao a piece of silver and asked him to buy water.

When passing a pastry shop.

You Xuan stood at the door and thought for a while, remembering that Yaoxuan's peach cakes were good, so he asked Dahao to go in and bought another pack of peach cakes, and he only ate one piece, but Mu Jue didn't like it, so the rest of the peach cakes I gave it to Dahao and the others.

When passing by a stall, You Xuan saw that the stall owner hung several dyed wooden hairpins with red strings, which looked so beautiful, You Xuan stopped curiously, "What color is this wooden hairpin dyed with? "

The stall owner laughed, but said nothing.

You Xuan didn't buy it either.

There were several young girls in front of them carrying flower baskets, walking into a jewelry store together, talking and laughing.

Those girls were all wearing cloaks, and each cloak had a different pattern, all of which were extremely beautiful and unique.

You Xuan recognized it, and said to Mu Jue, "Those cloaks were drawn by the painter of the makeup shop. I specially invited the embroiderer to embroider them. I have been embroidering them for quite a long time."

Mu Jue didn't notice, and casually boasted, "Not bad."

They wandered around, and soon came to the vicinity of Jiang's Rouge Manor.

Today, Jiang's Rouge Village's business is booming.

For the first time in several years, it surpassed the Mufu jewelry store opposite.

You Xuan wanted to go there at first, but suddenly saw Mrs. Miao and Mr. Mu appearing from the other side with gloomy faces, walking towards the jewelry store, but staring at the Rouge Village opposite from time to time.

So You Xuan grabbed Mu Jue, "Let's go back first."

Unexpectedly.

However, Master Mu found them first and asked Uncle Zhao, the housekeeper, to come and call them. After Mu Jue and You Xuan entered the private room behind the jewelry store together, Master Mu said: "The business in the store is not good today, and they are all brought by the opposite party. Yanzhizhuang has stolen the business, and I don’t know which expert pointed out the opposite, teahouse, restaurant, restaurant, nursery rhyme drawing paper story-now everyone in the streets and alleys knows the name of Jiang’s Yanzhizhuang. Got rich."

You Xuan drank his tea calmly.

Mu Jue glanced at You Xuan with a half-smile, but didn't say anything.

Mrs. Miao appeared soon, and she was not as anxious as Mr. Mu. She obviously didn't take Jiang's Yanzhizhuang seriously, but she was also curious about who was pointing Jiang's shopkeeper behind her back, so she ordered someone to investigate secretly.

After Mrs. Miao sat down, she exchanged a few simple greetings, but she had nothing to say, and she was also busy, so she left to busy with other things soon.

Master Mu acted like an idler, "I'm planning to go to a nearby theater to relax, will you two come?"

You Xuan flatly refused.

He was too lazy to go to any play.

He wanted to go back and re-watch "Xuanxuan Qingyue" again.

Mu Jue also refused.

Master Mu didn't persuade them, he asked the accountant to get some money, and left leisurely.

The rouge makeup business on the opposite side, who was still worried and anxious just a moment ago, suddenly surpassed their jewelry store today.

You Xuan and Mu Jue returned to Mu Mansion.

And within the next five days.

You Xuan received a dividend from Jiang's Rouge Village, a lot of money, very much, a total of 6000 taels.It can be seen from this that Jiang's Rouge Manor has really made a lot of money in the past few days.

However, the business of the jewelry store in the Mu Mansion was sluggish day by day. The Miao family didn't take it seriously. It was only a few days, and it happened to be a few days off. Lai gave it to Miao, saying that it was Miao who made trouble, and she was not allowed to continue going to the shop.

Who knew Miao would simply ignore it.
