The foolish king's contract princess

Chapter 21
The queen was a little flustered by the emperor's look, she quickly collected her emotions and said, "The fifth prince is hurt."

"Fortunately, the fifth prince was not injured because of the protection of the housekeeper Xia Yu. At that time, a group of men in black rushed in with knives, which really frightened the concubine," Nan Mengjie patted her chest with her hands, revealing a smile. A look of fear.

"Fifth Imperial Concubine, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter," the emperor gave an accurate reply.

The fifth prince was assassinated several times in the first two years of his stupidity, and then it gradually subsided. People of some status in the capital knew about these things and could guess who did it.The emperor never asked about it, and the ministers all pretended to be deaf and dumb and never mentioned it.This time Nan Mengjie pretended to be innocent and put this matter on the bright side, the emperor could no longer stay out of it.

"Then the concubine will thank the emperor on behalf of the fifth prince," Nan Mengjie smiled at the emperor.

It was still early before lunch time, so Nan Mengjie took Ye Yuchen to the Imperial Garden for a stroll.

"Sister, I see that you really like the Fifth Prince from your performance just now. Congratulations to my sister." Nan Mengxi appeared out of nowhere, and his words were full of sarcasm.

"Sister, this matter seems to have nothing to do with you. If you are so busy, you should think about how to tie the prince's heart." Nan Mengjie really didn't want to talk to this stupid woman from the bottom of her heart.

"My sister has her own way, don't bother her to worry about it," Nan Mengxi smiled happily as she played with the handkerchief. Since the wedding, the prince has been spending the night in her room for the past few days.

"Let's go, let's go somewhere else," said Nan Mengjie, pulling Ye Yuchen away, ignoring Nan Mengxi.

Seeing that Nan Mengjie was not angry at all when she left, Nan Mengxi, who was standing there, ruthlessly trampled on the handkerchief in her hand, cursing Nan Mengjie in her heart.

At lunch, the emperor had something to do and did not attend.The queen kept picking up vegetables for the prince and Nanmengxi, and Nanmengxi smiled like a flower.Nan Mengjie ignored her complacent expression, except for occasionally picking up some food for Ye Yuchen, she just ate quietly.

After lunch, Nan Mengjie took Ye Yuchen and left the palace after sitting idle for a while.

"Xiao Yuchen, do you dislike the imperial palace very much?" Nan Mengjie asked Ye Yuchen while sitting in the carriage.

"Yes, they would bully me every time I went to the palace, and last time the queen sent someone to kill me, I was very scared," Ye Yuchen replied with his head down.

If Nan Mengjie could see the expression in Ye Yuchen's eyes at this time, he would definitely find that he was not a fool.These big Yuchen endured humiliation just to make arrangements in secret. He once swore that he would make those who bullied him pay a heavy price in the future.

Hearing Ye Yuchen's answer, Nan Mengjie got up and sat beside him, hugging him in her arms, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you with Xia Yu in the future, and I won't let others who bullied you."

How could Nan Mengjie in the main hall fail to see the emperor's indifference, the empress' insidiousness, and the prince's ferocity.Under such an atmosphere, it was not easy for Ye Yuchen to still be alive.Although Ye Yuchen is just a passer-by in her life, as long as she hasn't left, she will take good care of this noble and poor person.

"Well, with the lady here, Xiao Chenchen won't be afraid," Ye Yuchen raised his mouth slightly in Nan Mengjie's arms.

Three days later, Nan Mengjie took An Zixing back, bought him an unremarkable small courtyard, and asked him to assist Sister Qin in managing the Yanyu Building and the Yanyun Building.Today's Yanyu Building and Yanyun Building are booming in business. With Li Dongxu's lessons learned from the past, dignitaries and dignitaries will restrain their troubles.There are still people looking for trouble in the Jianghu, but the Dark Soul Pavilion is well-known, and Nan Mengjie is not worried that something will happen.

"Xiaoer, are you closed today?" Nan Mengjie, wearing a veil, entered the restaurant and found that Xiaoer was listless and the store was empty.

"Guest officer, today the owner is discussing about reselling the store, so we are closed," the waiter said quite clearly.

Hearing what the waiter said, Nan Mengjie gave him some silver taels to find out the ins and outs of the matter.

The owner of this restaurant was originally the young master of Ouyang's family. Later, when his grandfather passed away, Mu Yunhai, who joined Ouyang's family, changed all the properties under the name of Ouyang's family to Mu's, and took back his childhood sweetheart and her son who were raised outside. They left Mu's house, drove Ouyang mother and son out of Mu's house, and only gave them a few shops.

Miss Ouyang was overly sad and depressed, and died a year later.Ouyang Ling worked hard to run the store but couldn't stand the suppression of the Mu family, and made a loss. Now he has to sell the store to pay wages for everyone.

"When will your son come back?" Nan Mengjie asked Xiaoer.

"Young master has been out for more than an hour, and he should be back soon,"

"Okay, go and do your work, I'll just walk around the store and wait for your young master to come back by the way." Nan Mengjie sent Xiaoer away and wandered around the restaurant. This restaurant has two floors, and the location is not bad. , not too biased.

Just when Nan Mengjie began to plan the renovation in her mind, Ouyang Ling came back.

"I don't know what the girl is looking for?" Ouyang Ling just stood behind Nan Mengjie.

Nan Mengjie turned around and saw Ouyang Ling who looked depressed. This is a sunny and handsome boy.

"I heard that your store is being resold?" Nan Mengjie asked straight to the point.

"Yes," Ouyang Ling said with some reluctance in his tone.

"I don't know how many stores there are under the name of the young master?"

"There are five in total, and there are only two in the capital," Ouyang Ling answered truthfully, even though he didn't know what Nan Mengjie meant.

"I want to buy all the stores owned by you," Nan Mengjie said slowly.

"Girl, I think you misunderstood, I only resell this restaurant," Ouyang Ling rejected Nan Mengjie's proposal without thinking.

"I know you want to sell this restaurant to turn over other stores. Maybe you also want to move the focus of your business out of the capital to get rid of the suppression of the Mu family," Nan Mengjie said in a room on the second floor. Sit in the private room by the window.

"Girl, you..." Ouyang Ling didn't expect Nan Mengjie to guess his thoughts correctly.

"Are you sure you can get rid of the Mu family when you leave the capital?" Nan Mengjie looked out the window and asked Ouyang Ling without looking back.

After listening to Nan Mengjie's words, Ouyang Ling sat opposite her, sighed and said, "This is also a helpless move."

"How about this, we two cooperate, I pay the money, you go out of the shop, and then we earn four or six points, you four and I six," Nan Mengjie squinted her eyes and looked at Ouyang Ling with a smile.

"Girl, it's not that I don't manage well, it's that the Mu family is suppressing it maliciously, so this can't be solved with money." Ouyang Ling wanted to keep the restaurant, but he didn't want to lie to Nan Mengjie.

"I know, don't worry, with me around, the Mu family won't be a problem."

"I don't know why the girl chose me?" Ouyang Ling was not stupid, how could he not see that Nan Mengjie was so sincere.

"Because you gave me two steamed buns a few months ago," Nan Mengjie finished and continued to observe the flow of people outside.
