Chapter 709 Her Mother Also Said

On the terrace, the atmosphere became cheerful again.

The princess said, "I feel bad for making you suffer in my house. I will let Fulong Commercial Bank give you full authority to manage the store in the capital. How do you think?"

"No need, it's good like this now, I don't want to change anything." Qin Yao smiled and gently gestured to Yun Nuo to press the back of his head.

Yunnuo immediately changed his position.

The proposal was rejected, but the princess did not give up. She thought for a while and said:

"There is a farm in the southern suburbs outside the city. It was my mother's summer residence in the past. Now it has been given to me. Although it is not big, it is close to the river bank and has dozens of acres of flower fields. It is quite wild and interesting."

Qin Yao smiled, "Your Highness, have you forgotten that I am from the countryside? I have seen enough of the wildness, and now I just want to see the prosperity of Kyoto."

Princess: “.”

Qin Yao was a little thirsty, "Yun Nuo, pour me a glass of water."

"Yes." Yun Nuo washed the light foam on his hands in a tall wooden bucket, walked to the couch, poured a cup of tea for Qin Yao, covered the hot cup with his hand to lower the temperature, and handed it to her.

Qin Yao slightly turned sideways and was about to reach out her hand when the teacup was already placed at her lips.

Qin Yao: "Thank you."

He picked up the teacup and took two sips of the warm tea.

The princess joked, "How about I give Yunnuo to you?"

Qin Yao spat out a mouthful of tea with a "Puff!" and Yun Nuo was hit right in the middle. He didn't dare to dodge and got covered in the tea.

Qin Yao: "."

Princess: “.”

Yunnuo blinked, and a tea leaf fell from her long eyelashes.

He suddenly came back to his senses from Qin Yao's thank you, hurriedly wiped the water off his face with his sleeve, and picked up the clean towel on the small table beside the couch to wipe Qin Yao's mouth.

"No, I can do it myself." Qin Yao still had the nerve to ask him to serve her. She snatched the handkerchief without giving him a chance to refuse, wiped her mouth randomly, and returned the handkerchief to Yun Nuo.

"Sorry, are you okay?" Qin Yao asked with concern.

Yun Nuo's lively eyes were obviously stunned for a moment.

He knelt down with a plop, "My servant failed to serve you well, please punish me, Madam."

Qin Yao looked back at the princess who was teasing, then looked at Yun Nuo who was pointing at the back of her head, coughed twice tactically, and said gently:
"Get up, my head is cold."

Although the temperature has been high these days, it has been rainy for consecutive days. If you wash your hair outdoors and there is not enough hot water, it will still be a bit cold when the wind blows.

Of course, this little chill was nothing to Qin Yao. She was just looking for a reason to break the awkward atmosphere.

The eldest princess was still enthusiastically giving Qin Yao advice.

"I know you have a husband at home. If it's inconvenient to take him back home, you can just put him up in my house. I have an empty courtyard here that can be cleaned up and used by people."

"If you're still scared, I'll cover you."

As he said that, he turned his head to glance at Qin Yao and said ambiguously: "Eunuchs can't have sex, but we women don't have to use that thing. We can still have pleasure by other means."

Seeing Qin Yao closing her eyes and her breathing gradually calming down, the eldest princess raised her eyebrows, "Mrs. Qin? Qin Yao?"

No response, fell asleep.

The eldest princess looked up at the sky. A woman without desires is really scary!
The guard behind him asked quietly whether he should go and wake up the distinguished guest. The princess glanced at him and said, "Go ahead. If you want to die, go ahead. I won't stop you."

Thanks to her daily surveillance of the Imperial Master's Mansion, she happened to know that the stone lions in front of the gate of the Imperial Master's Mansion were easily moved away by someone.

That’s a stone lion weighing six thousand kilograms!
As a mortal guard, she is probably not even able to withstand a single finger from Qin Yao.

Yesterday she was still thinking whether she should first give Qin Yao a warning and then give her some sweet treats to appease her.

But when the news of the stone lion's moving came, forget it, just keep it well, don't ask for it to be used by me, just hope that it won't be used by the enemy, that would be a blessing. And Mu Ling, she ran so fast, if I look back, I won't punish her severely!
I can’t send money or people away. Does Qin Yao want power?

Regardless of whether the other party was asleep or not, the princess tried again, "Qin Yao, I have an errand in the other palace outside the capital. The official position is not high, only the sixth rank, but the monthly salary is 100,000 taels, and there is also a permanent manor and 20 servants to serve."

At this point, she paused, looked at Yun Nuo who had washed Qin Yao's hair and was drying her hair with a dry towel, and added:

"Yun Nuo is also among them. If you have any other things in my house that you like, you can bring them to the manor as well."

Glancing at Qin Yao's eyelids moving, as if she was about to open her eyes and wake up, the eldest princess immediately revealed a confident smile.

However, the next second, Qin Yao said, "Anyone can do it? Then the guards beside His Highness can do it too?"

Before the princess could react, the guard became anxious and knelt on one knee with his sword in hand.

A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. If he is given away, he will immediately cut his own throat and never bring shame to Your Highness.

The guard glared at Qin Yao with resentment. Although this man was highly capable, he was too arrogant and presumptuous.

If he were a prince, he would never make friends with such a person.

"Did you get scared?" Qin Yao smiled maliciously, sat up from the couch, asked Yun Nuo to give her a dry towel, and she wiped her hair herself.

Looking at the expressionless face of the eldest princess, he said, "Your Highness's offer is very tempting, but I'm afraid I'm not worthy of it and will disappoint Your Highness."

After drying her hair, she took her golden hairpin and casually tied her hair loosely behind her head. She stood up and walked to the pond, looking at the plump koi in it, and said lightly:

"I think it's good as it is now. His Highness just said that he felt a sense of familiarity with me from the first sight, and I believe it a little bit, but——"

She leaned against the railing, one hand on her chin, and looked back sideways, her eyes sweeping across the palace full of palace maids and musicians. She frowned in disgust and sighed, "I can't stand you nobles at all."

"How bold!" The guard suddenly drew his sword and pointed it angrily at Qin Yao, loyally defending her Highness the Princess.

He shouted angrily at Qin Yao: "I know that you are very capable, but I will kill anyone who insults your Highness!"

Facing his tense attitude, Qin Yao was lazy, with a vague look in her eyes, as if she didn't take his threat seriously at all.

She also asked him curiously: "What's your name?"

The guard's chest heaved violently, and he was angry and didn't answer her questions.

"Xu Zhong."

The princess, with her half-dried long hair spread out and her large nightgown gathered around her, got down on the bed, walked to the side of the guard who was so angry that he wanted to kill Qin Yao, and said to Qin Yao: "Xu is my mother's surname, and Zhong means loyalty."

"He has been with me since I was thirteen, and has been with me for twenty years. I can't give him to you."

Qin Yao nodded to show her understanding. Twenty years, how many twenty years can one have in a lifetime?
This kind of friendship is not that of subordinates, but that of family.

How can you give your family away?
Qin Yao glanced at the sky. It was almost noon and it was time for her to go home.

Taking another look at the plump koi in the pond, Qin Yao took her things and smiled faintly at the princess.

"Your Highness has delayed me for a long time today. I am sorry to bother you any further. I will take my leave now!"

The princess did not force her to stay. Although they did not reach an agreement today, they did not break down either. The result was not bad.

She nodded and wanted to personally escort Qin Yao out of the hall.

Qin Yao asked her to stay, but she refused to listen.

When Qin Yao was about to leave the palace, he suddenly asked, "What is it about nobles that you can't stand?"

Qin Yao looked at her in surprise, she didn't expect that she really wanted to know.

He took a deep breath and said word by word: "The nobles don't treat people as human beings."

There was a loud bang in the eldest princess's mind, as if she was struck by lightning!

Because her mother also said this!
