I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 159 That's really not a coincidence

After Xin Youran came out of Suci Pavilion, the breath she had been holding was instantly extinguished...

"That's really unfortunate..."

"Thank you for all the trouble, Chu Yuming. Once my ointment is on track, I will definitely thank your husband."

"He even bought the porcelain box for the ointment."

Wei Wanwan poured a cup of hot water for Xin Youran and handed it to her. "It's nothing. He just likes buying these little gadgets anyway."

"Hey, these are what he bought for me."

As she spoke, she showed Xin Youran the other bottles and jars in their bedroom.

Well, there are really a wide variety of them, and each one has its own characteristics.

I didn’t expect Chu Yuming also likes to collect these porcelains.

When she saw a vase on the table in front of the window, although she didn't understand much, she could tell that the workmanship was even better than Master Song's.

Xin Youran suddenly had a premonition that Chu Yuming might actually know Master Song’s long-lost brother!

"Bannan, when did your husband start tinkering with these things?"

Isn't this a true collector? No wonder Wei Mayan is not short of money!

Good porcelain is valuable wherever it is.

"I haven't asked specifically, but it's been like this since I met him."

You know what, this old freak has good taste. Chu Yuming is handsome and good at using hidden weapons, but I didn't expect that he also likes to collect porcelain.

"When will Chu Yuming come back tomorrow?"

"How would I know? Go to bed quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow!"

"Alas, Lao Li passed away at this critical moment. I don't know if the bosses who ordered the gardenia potted plants will accept them..."

"I even specifically told my husband to go to the capital to inquire about the situation."

Wei Wanwan started to make the bed again while chattering. She prepared a new quilt for Xin Youran. The bed was big enough for four people to lie down, so it was more than enough for the two of them to share one bed.

Xin Youran slept in it under Wei Mayan's arrangement. She had just laid down and was about to talk to Wei Mayan about gardenia.

Just as she turned her head towards her, she found that the man had closed his eyes, and then she heard a light snoring sound...

This guy really falls asleep in seconds!

But she couldn't fall asleep, and her mind was full of what Wei Mayan had just said.

She had previously learned that Lao Li's carriage was not only used to transport people, but also to deliver goods to the capital during the flower blooming season.

Old customers from previous years may turn to other companies to place orders because of Mr. Li’s passing.

The flowers in the field will not be sold and will wither in the field.

It just so happened that she was planning to talk to Wei Wanwan about this matter in the next two days. Since she had already signed a contract with Ming Yu Zhai, there would definitely be stable orders in the future.

The flower fields of any one company alone are definitely not enough to meet the demand.

It would be better to pay a higher price than outsiders and let the villagers sell all the flowers in their flower fields to her.

In this way, the villagers can earn more and save transportation costs. After all, it is troublesome to transport potted plants. How can they be easier to transport than her small ointment?

She can also ensure optimal freshness of the flowers, so it’s a win-win!

I'll discuss this matter with Wanwan tomorrow.

"Sir, I have already done everything according to your Highness's wishes."

"Here is the contract. Please present it to His Highness."

In the secret room of Mingyuzhai, Xing Wenchong handed over the contract signed with Xin Youran with both hands.

"Then he came back here and said that the product couldn't be restocked quickly. He needed to change the porcelain box for the perfume, so he would have to wait for more than half a month."

"Also, the newly appointed Manager Qiu of Ningxiang Pavilion also extended an invitation to Boss Xin, but it seems to have been rejected. The reason is still unknown."

"The owner of Ningxiang Pavilion is a man, not Shopkeeper Qiu."

Ji Yu relayed Xing Wenchong's words to Mu Yuan word for word.

He took the contract and saw Xin Youran's signature, which looked like a ghostly scribble. He laughed inexplicably, "Which one is the real you?"

"Let her do whatever she wants."

Jiyu retreated quickly.

Mu Yuan then asked, "How's Lao Liu doing?"

Jiemie then appeared before him. "Still no progress. Although Guo Zhen isn't a member of [Falling Rain] to the outside world, the people behind him are definitely closely related to [Falling Rain]."

"Your Highness, do you think it could be the Marquis of Dingguo?"

"Has he colluded with [Falling Rain]?"

His Majesty has issued a clear and strict order prohibiting all officials from having any contact with [Falling Rain].

If [Luo Yu] attacks officials of the current dynasty, we will investigate it to the end.

He once suspected that [Falling Rain] might be just another chess piece of the emperor.

But after all these years, it seems that he has no direct relationship with "Falling Rain". As for why he "tolerates" its existence, it is unknown.

Marquis Dingguo does not have the courage to go against the emperor.

But it cannot be ruled out that this old guy is being taken advantage of by someone.

"What has Cui Zhanting been busy with recently?"

"Humph, what else can the Jinwu Guards do besides strolling around the streets?"

As soon as Jiemie finished speaking, there was a "bang" sound, and the window of Mu Yuan's room was forcibly opened by someone outside.

"Hey, I think I heard someone saying something bad about me?"

Jiemie turned away, his heart filled with disdain: Even if you knew, what could you do to me? How have I wronged you?

"Huh, how many windows have been replaced..."

Cui Zhanting didn't have the energy to deal with that petty person, so he went straight to the point and reported the situation of the Tiger Wing Army to Mu Yuan.

"Your Highness, the identity of the person who tried to assassinate you that night has been identified. His name is Zhang Hu, and he is from the Tiger Wing Army."

"We found a hundred taels of silver in his house."

"Unfortunately, on the night of his accident, his house suddenly caught fire and all five of his family, young and old, were burned beyond recognition. No one survived."

Mu Yuan actually expected that it was most likely a murder for hire.

But I didn't expect that man to be so cruel and ruthless that he didn't even let his family members go.

"Does Lei Ting know about this?"

Cui Zhanting shook his head. "I checked it secretly. There's no way that idiot could know anything."

"Tell him the truth and spread the news among the Tiger Wing Army to deter those who are ready to make trouble."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Also, the Queen's side..."

Mu Yuan interrupted Cui Zhanting at the right time, "I will go to Weiyang Palace in person."

"How's the third brother doing? Is he okay?"

Hearing about the Third Prince Mu Yubai, Cui Zhanting frowned, "You should go and see for yourself."

"Not very good. He refused to respond even when summoned by the Queen, and has been confined to Prince Jing's mansion all day. It seems he's even taken to drinking lately..."

Who knows what stimulated such a cheerful person to become like this?

Mu Yuan murmured "hmm" softly, then sighed, "Then give her another chance."
