Yuan Man looked at him in silence. Yes, growing up as secret guards, it was rare for them to know what love was. Happiness was too far away for them.
"Happiness is different for everyone. For some people, happiness is just being with the one they love."
"Some people think that as long as they have enough food and clothing, they are happy."
"However, for Yaoyao, happiness probably means making her happy every day, not having to worry about food and clothing, and living a carefree life."
"Of course, you have to ask her if she wants it or not."
"She and her brother have agreed. I will also prepare a betrothal gift for you, including a yard in Kyoto, a shop, and so on."
"If you want an official position, with your ability, I can help you arrange it."
Yuan Er knelt down with emotion and said, "Thank you, Master. I will go ask Miss Yao right away."
After saying that, he ran away.
Yuan Man's mouth twitched. "Are you in a hurry for a while? I haven't finished my words yet."
Qinglong came in and saw Yuan Er running out, and looked at Yuan Man, "Master, what's the hurry?"
Yuan Man waved his hand, "It's his personal business."
"You're here, have you found anything?"
Qinglong nodded, "Yes, I found out, it was Zhou Yanlin who did it."
"In addition, I have also found out that the Zhou family has been in frequent contact with the Xixiao Palace recently, but I haven't found out what they are doing yet."
"However, the Concubine has been living a luxurious life in the Xixiao Palace this week. She has kept several male lovers and is enjoying a carefree life."
Yuanman raised an eyebrow when he heard this. This was the life every woman dreamed of.
"Look carefully at what Concubine Zhou and the Zhou family are doing or plotting."
"Zhou Yanlin wants to ruin my reputation, so he wouldn't do it without a reason."
"Yes." Qinglong responded and said, "Master, there has been a response to the matter of Liuli. Yuanyue said that Liuli has been developed, but the quality is not good. It was originally destroyed, but someone secretly took it."
"This person didn't know the value of colored glaze, so he sold it to a pawnshop for 160 taels, and it ended up in Zhou Yanlin's hands."
"Zhou Yanlin saw that the glass bottle was not of high quality, so he deliberately designed that student to break it."
"The man who secretly coveted the glass bottle has been dealt with. Do you have any other instructions?"
Yuan Man shook his head and said, "Just ask Yuan Yue to pay more attention."
"Go ahead and do your work. If there's anything, I'll have Yuan Er and the others send you a message."
Qinglong bowed and left.
In the evening, Hui Chengyuan came back with Yuanbao and scolded him as he walked away: "Don't do this again in the future, understand?"
"I know, Dad. I didn't mean it." Yuanbao said with a pout.
Hui Chengyuan looked down at him and said, "Yuanbao, you are two years old now, it's time for you to understand some principles."
"What's going on?" Yuan Man heard their conversation and came out.
"Tell your mother yourself." Hui Chengyuan said as he let go of her hand and stepped forward to help Yuanman.
Yuanbao hugged Yuanmanyou's thighs and said, "Mom, Yuanbao shouldn't take uncle's things."
Yuan Man glanced at Hui Cheng Yuan and said, "Yuan Bao, what did you take from your uncle?"
"It's a very beautiful pearl flower. Yuanbao wanted to take it back for mother, but father wouldn't let him." Yuanbao said this and looked at Hui Chengyuan with grievance.
Yuan Man's expression immediately became serious. "Yuan Bao, taking something without asking is stealing. You cannot take someone else's things without the owner's consent, even if the person is your uncle."
"Also, if you see something you like, you can't ask others for it. You can buy it, but you can't ask for it, understand?"
"You are still young and have not learned etiquette, but you still have to remember the most basic things."
Yuanbao pouted, "Mom, Yuanbao knows he was wrong, Yuanbao apologized to uncle."
Yuan Man squatted down and took him into her arms, "Thank you Yuan Bao for always thinking of me, but I hope that the things Yuan Bao gives me are bought or made by himself, not stolen or asked from others."
"Mom, Yuanbao knows. I won't do it again." Yuanbao buried his face in her arms.
Yuan Man pulled him out, "Very good, Yuan Bao is the best. Let Aunt Hong Xiu help you clean up. It will be time for dinner soon."
Yuanbao nodded and ran away pulling Hongxiu.
Hui Chengyuan pulled Yuanman up and asked, "Is your abdomen not pressed down?"
Yuan Man shook his head, "I know my limits."
"When are you going to give Yuan Bao enlightenment?"
Hui Chengyuan helped her walk back, "After three years old, it's not good to be too early."
"My father has always wanted me to send Yuanbao to the palace so that he can teach me, but I am worried."
Yuan Man knew why he was worried. He had said this once before, "Then you just need to work hard and teach him yourself."
"By the way, there is a result on Minglou's matter. It was Zhou Yanlin who did it."
"Qinglong said that the Zhou family has been in close contact with Concubine Zhou, but we haven't found out what they are plotting yet."
"Zhou Yanlin wouldn't plot against me for no reason, so they must be planning something."
Hui Chengyuan helped her sit down, "What else could it be? If your reputation is ruined, won't their daughter have a chance?"
"However, the Zhou family's affairs need to be investigated in detail."
"Concubine Zhou has been very quiet, so we haven't sent anyone to visit her. Now it seems that we should investigate her thoroughly."
"Gu Chen and Zhong Jue have both returned to Kyoto. I asked them to come to the Prince's Mansion for dinner tomorrow."
"Okay." Yuan Man naturally had no objection.
"I thought he wouldn't be able to come back until after the sacrifice."
Hui Chengyuan smiled and said, "He should have come back a long time ago. I don't know what took him so long."
Zhou House.
"You useless piece of shit. You can't even do such a small thing." Zhou Yanlin smashed the teacup to the ground.
Mrs. Zhou walked in and saw this, and waved away the people in the room, "What's going on?"
Zhou Yanlin glanced at her and sat down next to her. "Why are you here?"
"I came to see you. You are so angry. Who made you angry?" Mrs. Zhou picked up the tea and took a sip.
"Did you ask someone to spread the rumor about Minglou today?"
Zhou Yanlin stared silently at the forbidden step in his hand and the jade pendant on his thumb.
"You were careless and let people spread such rumors, and you still haven't cleaned up the mess. Do you really think that the Zhou family can withstand the investigation of the royal family?" Mrs. Zhou looked at him with cold eyes.
Zhou Yanlin paused, looked up at her, and said after a long while: "I was careless this time. I was too angry at the time, so I lost my sense of proportion."
Madam Zhou lifted his chin, looked at him coldly and said, "Angry, what are you angry about?"
"What exactly do you want to do by ruining the Crown Princess's reputation?"
Zhou Yanlin looked into her eyes, his eyes flickered slightly, "He wants to stuff Yilan into the prince's mansion."
"Really?" Mrs. Zhou narrowed her eyes.
"really."
Madam Zhou let him go and stood up. "That's better. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
"Remember, without my consent, it's best not to have any crooked thoughts."
Zhou Yanlin looked at her receding back, his eyes filled with madness, and finally he closed his eyes.
"Someone is coming."
"My subordinate is here."
