Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 571
Liu Yunxiang clung to Yan Mu's arms and smelled the fragrance of jasmine on his body.His clothes will be scented with sandalwood, and this kind of jasmine fragrance is generally only available in women's fragrance powder.

"You..." Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment, but did not speak.

"what happened?"

"Why are you back so late?"

Yan Mu put her on the bed, got up and undressed, and told her what happened tonight while undressing.

Liu Yunxiang originally wanted to wait for him to come back, and when he knew he was safe, he went back to sleep in his yard.There was a problem between them, both of them knew in their hearts, but the knot of the problem couldn't be solved until Yan Mu recovered his memory.

She once felt that she was being hypocritical, but then she thought again, the knot in his heart could not be untied for a lifetime, so if she forced him to be together, is this life really worth it?

Both of them may be at fault or they may not be at fault. In past and present lives, there are so many entanglements, it is hard to tell clearly.

When she came back to her senses, she saw Yan Mu looking through his clothes as if looking for something.

"Did you miss anything?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Yan Mu couldn't find it, so he could only sigh, "It's nothing, go to sleep."

The silk handkerchief he bought for her was lost, in fact, he wanted to use the silk handkerchief to confess his mistake.

Lying next to Liu Yunxiang, smelling her breath, his heart throbbed. Yan Mu closed his eyes, trying to restrain himself, but it seemed that he was not such a character.

He quickly turned around and hugged Liu Yunxiang into his arms, bowed his head and kissed her forehead.

Liu Yunxiang put his hands on his shoulders, supported him for a while, but let go of his hands again under his eagerness.Knowing that she agreed, Yan Mu lowered his head and kissed her lips, and at the same time pressed her under his body, and began to pull the lace of her clothes with his hands.

"Yan Mu...you have engraved words on your arm...you can't touch other women..." Liu Yunxiang reminded with a trembling heart.

"You're not another woman..." he said.

"I can't see your heart clearly anymore, from the past to the present." She tilted her head to avoid his intimacy.

Yan Mu refused, and quickly untied her clothes, "I didn't know about it before, but now, I know."

"what?"

"I want you, as long as you are alone."

The next morning, when Liu Yunxiang woke up, Yan Mu had already gone to the yamen.

Today, when Qiu Wei enters the arena, the officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice will also go to maintain order. As the servant, Yan Mu will go to show his face first, and then go to the palace to discuss matters.

Liu Yunxiang felt his back was sore and his legs were weak, and he didn't get up until almost noon.

After lunch, Liu Yunxiang planned to go to Mozhai, and when he walked to the gate, he happened to see Yan Mu coming back from the outside, instead of entering the house, he walked into the diagonal alley.

She gasped, wondering where he was going and what he was doing, so she chased after him, and was about to call to him, when she saw a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes, walking towards him with her waist twisted and her hips swaying.

She looked at him and smiled, full of coquettishness.When she came to her, she even shook Yan Mu coquettishly with her handkerchief.

Yan Mu's back was facing her, so he couldn't see the expression on his face, but when the woman took out a silk handkerchief and brought it to him shyly, he took it and carefully folded it into his arms inside.

The woman said something else before leaving.

Seeing that Yan Mu was about to turn around, Liu Yunxiang subconsciously avoided it. When she got to the street, she realized why she was hiding. If she had any doubts, just go forward and ask.

But she didn't have any doubts, Yan Mu's temperament really never lied to her in this regard.

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, putting this matter aside for the time being.

When I came to the study, the study has put paper, ink, pens and inkstones outside for free for those who have difficulties, and the manager said that there is no such thing as looting.

"However, the consumption is still very high. Most of the bills are really difficult. They will come in to thank them after taking them. Some insist on leaving an IOU and paying back the money in the future." The housekeeper said.

"These candidates are scholars. Scholars have always been aloof and disdain to do things that damage their reputation."

"Besides, as the host expected, the fact that our study provides pens, inks, papers and inkstones to the poor students for free has spread among the literati, and many people come to our shop to buy things. Our shop has a full range of products, and the quality is good, and we don't ask for random prices. This will open up the market." Speaking of this, the steward couldn't keep his mouth shut for joy.

They all get a share, so naturally the more they sell, the more they earn.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "When doing business, don't care about small profits in the immediate future, but take a long-term view."

This is the same as the Lingyun Grain Shop back then. During the famine, she didn’t earn any money from the people, but the Lingyun brand stood up, and the business will get better and better in the future. Even other shops, as long as they hang up Lingyun's signboard, there are customers who recognize this brand and enter the store.

Liu Yunxiang came out of Mozhai, and wanted to go to Qu Moran's place to have a look. He passed by a powder shop, and saw the proprietress coming out to see off the guests. The face was full of enthusiasm and the smile was charming. Didn't she just give Yan Mu a handkerchief in the alley? woman.

When she stared at her, the woman saw her too.

"Hey, isn't this Princess Zhenbei?" The woman stepped forward and hurriedly saluted, "Do you want to buy fragrance powder? I'm not bragging. We have everything here, whether it is fragrance powder, rouge, pearl powder, or eyebrow pencil, and it is absolutely top-notch. good stuff."

Under the woman's warm greeting, Liu Yunxiang followed her to the store.Behind the woman, she could already smell the scent of jasmine, which was the same as Yan Mu's last night.

When I came to the store, the shop was not big, but it was full of things and there were many customers.

The woman invited Liu Yunxiang into the backyard, brought her tea and water, and asked the waiter to bring the best rouge powder in the shop.

"Princess, look at this incense powder. After picking the peach blossoms that are in bud, after many processes, more than ten catties of petals are made into such a small box. Come and ask, this peach blossom is fragrant but not greasy. My wife thinks Just right for you."

Liu Yunxiang took the powder box and smelled it, and it smelled really good, "You call yourself a minister's wife, I don't know which wife it is?"

The woman smiled, "My husband is Xiao Meng, the governor of Youzhou who just went to take up his post today."

Liu Yunxiang rolled his eyes, "It was Mrs. Xiao."

"The former princess no longer remembers the minister's wife."

Liu Yunxiang raised his head to look at the woman in front of him again, examined her carefully, and said, "We know each other?"

"You are so forgetful, we naturally know each other, and we have a good friendship."

"Oh?"

"If I said Lan Yuan, you might remember it?"

Orchid Garden?

Liu Yunxiang looked at this woman again, but still couldn't remember. There were many women brought into the Orchid Garden by Yan Mu back then. The whole garden was full of Yingying and Yanyan. She had no contact with them, so she didn't remember their faces.Later, Yan Mu sent out the women in the garden one by one, and the garden became deserted.

"Last night, His Highness didn't remember the slave family either. The slave family was so sad."

"last night?"

"He drank with my old Xiao."

Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, wanting to ask how they could drink this wine?
Mrs. Xiao cast a sideways glance at Liu Yunxiang, then covered her mouth and said with a smile: "In this way, the two of us are not destined to be close, after all, we have served the same man."

Hearing this, Liu Yunxiang's expression immediately darkened.
