Chapter 53 Stepfather
Mu Yanxi held her arm fawningly and shook, "Duo Duo, don't be angry, I'll invite you to Guangjuxuan to eat cherry meat tomorrow, I'll make amends for you."

"It's almost there."

The two reconciled as before.

Mu Yanxi glanced at the courtyard gate that looked dilapidated in the old days, and sighed with his cheeks on his hands, "Father is so pitiful, he lived such a poor and frugal life, but now he has been fined, and the family has to support a bunch of people. My servant, I'm afraid I won't be able to afford food in the future."

Mu Yanxi snorted, "He deserves it."

Mu Yanli, who had the calmest personality, said, "Father was punished this time because of us, and we have to do something for him."

Mu Yanxi asked: "Then what are you doing?"

Although Mu Yanxi looked reluctant, she didn't object.

Mu Yanli thought for a while, and said, "We can't change the demotion, but we can find a way to help dad collect some money, so that at least he won't be hungry for the next three years."

Mu Yanxi nodded quickly, and then said distressedly: "I didn't bring any savings with me this time, only the thousand taels of gold I won from King Qi, oh, and the wishful order from Uncle Jiang."

Mu Yanli said: "Although there are not many servants in Prince Qin's residence, father still has a lot of hidden guards and attendants around him. I don't think this money will last long."

"Then what should we do? Ah, I thought of it, let's go find Uncle Jiang!"

The three little guys did what they said, but because they couldn't leave the Qin Palace, they found someone to send a message to Jiang Mubai.

After waiting for Jun Moyan to take a nap, Leng Jian turned his head and went to Leng Yue's residence.

Because her back was all injured, Leng Yue could only lie on the bed to rest, but she was not idle, she was flipping through an ancient medical book that she just got.

"Little Moon."

Seeing Leng Jian coming, Leng Yue closed the medical book and slowly sat up from the bed.

"You're hurt, don't get up, I just came to see you."

Leng Yue pushed away Leng Jian's hand that was about to help her, frowned and said calmly: "It's just a flesh wound, and I can't die."

After finishing speaking, she looked at Leng Jian, "Brother, why are you here? Is there something wrong with the master?"

"No, the master has taken a nap."

Hearing this, Leng Yue couldn't help but sullen her face, "The master has been silent for so many years, and the palace has always been peaceful, but as soon as the three of them moved in, the master was condemned and demoted. I think the four of them, the mother and the son, are here to restrain the master." of!"

"Xiaoyue, although the incident was caused by the three little masters, it was also the master's own will."

Leng Yue slapped the edge of the bed heavily, but accidentally injured her back, her face turned pale from the pain immediately.

She took a breath and said: "Master was temporarily confused by the naivety they pretended, but we can't sit idly by and let them continue to drag the master down."

Leng Jian hurriedly said: "Xiaoyue, don't mess around, have you forgotten what the master said yesterday? If you act without authorization, the master will really not keep you by my side. Besides, the three little masters will leave tomorrow gone."

In the last sentence, there was obvious disappointment in the tone, but Leng Yue's eyes lit up when she heard it.

"Really, are they really going to leave tomorrow?"

Leng Jian nodded, but Leng Yue couldn't help laughing.

-

"Let's talk, I'm anxious to find someone to call me, what's the matter?"

In the guest courtyard, Jiang Mubai looked at the three children while drinking tea.

The three of Mu Yanli looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally the thickest-skinned Mu Yanxi spoke.

"Uncle Jiang, can you lend us a little bit of money?"

Jiang Mubai was surprised, but also a little curious, "What are you borrowing money for? Didn't you just search for a thousand taels of gold from King Qi a few days ago? And the wishful order I gave you, isn't it enough for you?"

"Father, he was demoted from office to rank, and his salary was also fined. Seeing how dilapidated his palace is, he probably doesn't have much savings in his hands. We just want to help him raise some money to tide over the current difficulties. "

Jiang Mubai almost choked his throat with a sip of tea, he looked at the three children in disbelief.

"You borrowed money for Mo Yan?"

"Yeah, dad is so pitiful. He is not in good health. Not to mention he was demoted, and was fined three years of salary. How will he live in the future."

Emperor Dongfeng was very suspicious. Although the three adult princes were crowned kings, they did not grant them lands, and only received corresponding salaries according to their titles.

King Qi and King Rui still have their ancestors to rely on.

Jun Moyan's mother and concubine died early, and his grandfather's family was confiscated and exiled in the North, so he had to rely on his grandson to help him a little bit. In addition, Jun Moyan was in poor health and had no errands. Apart from his pitifully small property, All rely on the little salary of the title to live.

Now he has been fined three years of salary, but he has to cut off his rations.

Of course, these are only in the eyes of outsiders.

Jiang Mubai, who knew how rich Jun Moyan was, originally wanted to open his mouth to explain, but swallowed the words again.

"Uncle Jiang, can you?"

"It's not very possible."

"Why? Uncle Jiang, we've known each other for so long, and we've grown some friendships. Besides, you're still my father's friend. Don't you want to do such a small favor?"

Jiang Mubai opened the folding fan with a "swish", and said calmly: "Borrowing money is the worst policy. It is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish. Even if you prepare a golden mountain for Mo Yan, sooner or later there will be a day when you can sit and eat. It’s better to help him find a way to make money, that’s the long-term solution.”

"The way to make money?"

Mu Yanxi's eyes lit up, and her mouth was sweet, "Uncle Jiang, you are not only suave and suave, but also the most successful businessman in the four kingdoms of Jiuzhou, you must have a way to help dad, right?"

Jiang Mubai winked and said, "Then who is more handsome between me and your father?"

"You don't have to ask, of course it's my father!"

"..."

Jiang Mubai pretended to be angry, "If you want to say that, I will leave."

Mu Yanxi blinked, "Uncle Jiang, although you are not as good-looking as your father, we all like you more. If you are willing to be our stepfather, we are also willing."

"puff……"

Fortunately, Jiang Mubai was not drinking tea, otherwise he would have sprayed it all.

He raised his hand in surrender, "Okay, okay, just pretend that I haven't asked this question, let's continue talking about ways to make money..."

A quarter of an hour later, the three children went separately according to the method taught by Jiang Mubai. Jiang Mubai called out the hidden guards around the guest courtyard.

"What the three little guys said just now was a joke, so don't tell your prince."

The secret guard didn't understand, so he asked, "Young Master Jiang, did the three little masters want you to be a stepfather?"

Just as Jiang Mubai was about to nod, he heard the dark guard say, "The prince already knew about it half a quarter of an hour ago."

Jiang Mubai:! ! !

It's over, with Jun Moyan's bad temper, he must be thinking of some way to kill him, so let's slip away.

"Hey, Mr. Jiang, when did you come?"

Jiang Mubai deliberately walked around Sunset House, but he didn't want to meet Leng Jian on the way.
