"Princess Ning, please stay."

Just as Mu Yunjin was about to step away with Taoist Fengxuan, a timid voice came from behind and stopped her.

Hearing this voice, Mu Yunjin turned her head and saw that it was Mrs. Li from Zhong County Magistrate's family who was pulling her daughter Li Yingxuan and walking towards her.

After the two approached, they first bent down towards Mu Yunjin, and then Mrs. Li spoke first, "Our mother and daughter haven't thanked Princess Ning properly for what happened yesterday. Thank you Princess Ning for helping our mother and daughter out of the siege, otherwise..."

After Mrs. Li finished speaking, she glanced at Mrs. Yang who was sitting beside her in a daze from the corner of her eye, and then sighed.

"It's a trivial matter, Mrs. Li doesn't need to worry about it." Mu Yunjin slightly curled her lips.

"When the poison on Xuan'er and I is cured, we will visit the door in person to thank you. If it wasn't for Concubine Ning, I am afraid that yesterday's incident would not end so easily." Mrs. Li still has lingering fears when she thinks about it now.

If Mrs. Yang really accused the Li family of having an affair with a traitor, the entire Li family would suffer.

It's also thanks to Mu Yunjin for dispatching Si Baosi, otherwise with their small Li family, how could they hire Si Baosi, and they would have to suffer from the dumb.

"Mrs. Li and Ms. Li don't need to be so polite..." Mu Yunjin smiled coyly, a little embarrassed.

Daoist Fengxuan at the side raised his eyebrows when he saw this, "Girl, we should go."

"En." Mu Yunjin nodded, and then bid farewell to Mrs. Li.

...

After leaving the Plum Blossom Garden, Taoist Fengxuan glanced at Mu Yunjin, then snorted coldly, "I'll just thank you, seeing how uncomfortable you are, you're useless."

"I don't like to praise, and I feel embarrassed when I do." Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows and her eyes sparkled.

"Hmph." Taoist Fengxuan snorted softly, then stretched out his hand to Mu Yunjin, "Give me the jade pendant."

Upon hearing this, Mu Yunjin handed the jade pendant to Daoist Fengxuan, "Is this your token of love for Senior Murong?"

"Don't talk nonsense, whoever has a relationship with her is a stinky old woman!" Taoist Fengxuan put away the jade pendant, his face full of displeasure.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this sounds better than singing." Mu Yunjin crossed her arms and teased Taoist Fengxuan.

Taoist Fengxuan glanced at Mu Yunjin, "You stinky girl, if it weren't for the fact that you are pregnant now, I would definitely beat you as a teacher!"

"Master, why are you willing to slap such a beautiful and cute little apprentice like me?" Mu Yunjin winked at Taoist Fengxuan.

Taoist Fengxuan complied, rolled his eyes, and ignored Mu Yunjin.

On the way out of the palace, the two passed the imperial garden. As soon as they stepped into the imperial garden, they heard the voices of two men arguing fiercely inside——

"There is a drought in the northern border. It is useless to transfer money. So much money is transferred. I am afraid that it will be taken away by corrupt officials from all walks of life before it reaches the victims."

"Lord Li, the emperor has entrusted me with the matter of the drought. By saying that, do you mean that I am that corrupt official?"

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, the minister is just discussing the matter as it is, and did not specifically target anyone. Please, the Prime Minister, please don't take the seat."

"you……"

Hearing these two arguments, Mu Yunjin and Taoist Fengxuan walked closer to the source of the voice, and when they walked outside a pavilion, they saw a bright yellow figure Chu Ye sitting in the pavilion.

Chu Ye was sitting in the gazebo at this moment, with his eyes downcast, wondering what he was thinking.

Beside him stood the Prime Minister Yan Qiuhuai and a middle-aged man dressed in official mansion, the two of them were blushing right now as they were arguing.

"Lord Li, it's useless for you and me to say more about this matter, let the emperor decide." Yanqiu Huaizheng's mouth was parched, and finally turned to Chu Ye.

Hearing Yan Qiuhuai's words, Chu Ye raised his eyes, and from his corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of Mu Yunjin and Taoist Fengxuan standing beside the flowers.

Seeing these two people, Chu Ye waved to Mu Yunjin and Taoist Fengxuan, "Siblings, seniors."

Mu Yunjin originally just wanted to take a casual look, but now Chu Ye saw it, so she walked slowly towards the gazebo.

When Yan Qiuhuai saw Mu Yunjin, his face suddenly collapsed. Although he was full of displeasure, he still bent towards Mu Yunjin, "Meet Princess Ning."

Mr. Li on the side also bowed down to pay his respects.

"Well, no courtesy." Mu Yunjin said.

After saying that, when Mu Yunjin was about to say hello to Chu Ye, Chu Ye waved her hand to stop her, "No need, brothers and sisters sit with senior."

Mu Yunjin nodded, and sat down with Taoist Fengxuan.

After sitting down, the little maid at the side came forward and poured a glass of water for Mu Yunjin and Taoist Fengxuan.

"It's all resolved?" Chu Ye drank his saliva and looked at Mu Yunjin.

"En." Mu Yunjin nodded, but because Yanqiu Huai was here, she didn't mention what it was.

Chu Ye felt relieved when he heard that.

At this moment, the Lord Li who had just argued with Yan Qiuhuai spoke again, "Your Majesty, the matter of the drought must not be delayed. The sooner a conclusion is reached, the better it will be for the common people."

"Li Mingzhong, you are enough! The emperor and Princess Ning are talking about the old days, and the drought matter does not take your time!" Yanqiu Huai shouted to stop.

Hearing the words Li Mingzhong, Mu Yunjin frowned, cast a glance at Li Mingzhong, and looked him over.

It turned out that this person was Li Mingzhong, as Chu Li said, he was an upright person.

"Li Aiqing, since you object to the transfer of money, what are you going to do?" Chu Ye looked at Li Mingzhong and asked.

Li Mingzhong clasped his fists and bent towards Chu Ye, "Reporting to the emperor, I have already learned that the four corners of the northern region are Linyindu, Peishanguan, Dongyangmen, and Shengzhou. The emperor only needs to issue a decree that the persons in charge of these four regions should take turns to deliver food to the northern region. When the drought is successfully resolved, the emperor will reward the persons in charge of these four regions for their merits. I am afraid that the effect will be far better than dialing out money."

When Yan Qiuhuai heard Li Mingzhong's words, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his brows gradually furrowed.

"Okay! If that's the case, I will entrust Li Aiqing to take full responsibility for the drought in the northern border. Come and draw up an order for me!" Chu Ye said loudly.

"Your Majesty..." Yanqiu Huai said immediately.

Chu Ye looked at Yanqiu Huai, "Yan Qing, I just took office, and there are still many things that need your help with the Taifu. Don't take care of things like the drought in the northern border."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yanqiu Huai's face was dead silent.

Originally, he had already planned to take the reward money allocated by Chu Ye, secretly keep half of it for himself, and buy a big house in Shengzhou, so that he can live in it when he retires and returns home.

Well now, it's all over.

This damn Li Mingzhong...

"Okay, step back." Chu Ye looked at the two of them.

The two nodded, bowed and said goodbye.

After Yan Qiuhuai and Li Mingzhong left, Mu Yunjin raised the corner of her mouth, "Master Li is indeed more suitable for the post of prime minister than Yan Qiuhuai."

"Yan Qiuhuai was mentioned as a prime minister that day because the old thief Qin was in the way. Now that the old thief Qin has been eliminated and the emperor has abdicated, this cancer should also be removed." Chu Ye chuckled lightly.

Mu Yunjin smiled and jokingly said, "The previous dynasty settled it, shouldn't it be time to consider your own harem?"

"Heh..." Chu Ye snorted lightly, "There's no rush."

...

Mu Yunjin and Chu Ye didn't know each other very well, so she left without sitting in the gazebo for a while.

When the carriage passed the market, Mu Yunjin, who was taking a nap with her eyes closed, suddenly heard a lot of noise from the street outside, accompanied by the sound of fighting.

Hearing the sound of fighting, the sensitive Mu Yunjin sat up, opened the curtain of the carriage, poked her head out, and watched the movement outside.

I saw the people around me stepping back one after another, but their eyes were fixed on the sky above.

Mu Yunjin looked along the line of sight, and saw Ding Xian surrounded by a group of black-clothed men on a roof, and was fighting with those black-clothed men with a sword.

Seeing those men in black, Mu Yunjin's pupils shrank, wasn't it Yang Lian and the others?

"Master..." Mu Yunjin immediately turned her gaze to Taoist Fengxuan.

Taoist Fengxuan had already seen the scene outside, he stroked his beard lightly, "You wait here."

After the words fell, he had already flew out of the carriage.

Mu Yunjin looked outside, only to see that after Taoist Fengxuan joined Ding Xian, Ding Xian was undoubtedly even more powerful. He was struggling at first, but he suddenly gained the upper hand.

And Taoist Fengxuan, as one of the three masters in the world, is more than enough to deal with these men in black alone.

After a while, the men in black saw that they were no match, and they had already lost their shape, ready to scatter in all directions.

Seeing this scene, Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows proudly.

The moment he withdrew his gaze, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black figure among the spectators. The figure was wrapped in a gray robe, wearing a bamboo hat, and his face was lowered, making it impossible to see clearly.

When Mu Yunjin saw the figure, she couldn't help but take a second look. After a while, she saw that figure turned around and left quickly, disappearing from Mu Yunjin's eyes.

Mu Yunjin frowned slightly, her heart sank subconsciously, and she always felt that the figure just now was very familiar...

"Huh, a bunch of useless bastards, I'm working hard, and they all ran away." Taoist Fengxuan got into the carriage and let out a low cry.

Ding Xian also sat in and shook his sore hands, "Fortunately, senior is here, otherwise I would really be unable to stand it."

"What are you doing today? Where's Chu Li?" Mu Yunjin looked at Ding Xian.

"I originally wanted to catch Chu Qing today, but I didn't expect to ignore someone like Qiu Tianhuai. While we were dealing with Chu Qing, he brought people over to counterattack and rescued Chu Qing. We were about to catch up, and the men in black that Qin Muyue raised also rushed out. I was responsible for diverting these men in black and fought all the way here. Your Highness and Song Chun don't know what happened now..." Ding Xian said.

"Chu Li never engages in unprepared battles. He purposely went to encircle and suppress Chu Qing. I'm afraid he also wanted to lure out a series of informants behind Chu Qing. Right now, those people should have already taken the bait." Taoist Fengxuan smiled mysteriously.

Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, and the figure wearing the bamboo hat flashed across her eyes again, feeling that something was wrong.

"Senior can actually see through this matter?" Ding Xian was surprised, just now he purposely said it a little more cryptically.

"Of course, all these years in the rivers and lakes are not for nothing..."
