Chapter 87 The Imperial Concubine’s New Career

As soon as Qi Yue received the letter from Xu Miaoyin, she began to prepare things for the trip north. In the six months since Xu Miaoyin left, Qi Yue still managed the business very well even though she was not in charge of the rear. Now no one in the entire Shu region does not know about it. She was from the Qi's Tea Shop, so she had accumulated some things. Whenever she went out to discuss business, and it seemed that Xu Miaoyin and the others liked something, she would buy it, and before she knew it, she had accumulated several boxes.

"This box is for you, this box is for Awan, and this box is for Aduo. They are all treasures I saved for you. Do you like them?"

Qi Yue opened the boxes one by one as if she were presenting a treasure, waved her hand, raised her head and held her chest out proudly, like a child waiting to be praised.

Ah Wan looked at the box that belonged to her and couldn't sit still beside Xu Miaoyin.

Xu Miaoyin looked at her eagerness to try, and said with a smile: "Let people move into your room and play slowly, but today's schoolwork cannot be delayed."

Ah Wan nodded hastily.

Xu Miaoyin then ordered people to carry all the boxes down, and Yuhua and Yuqin also took Awan back to Lingyuexuan.

After moving to Xishan Villa, Xu Miaoyin gave the jade paintings and jade harp to Awan, leaving only the jade book and jade chess beside her.

Yu Qiao knew that Xu Miaoyin must have something else to say to Qi Yue, so she signaled Yu Shu to follow her out and closed the door.

Qi Yue sat on the other side of the soft couch. She looked around the room and said to Xu Miaoyin: "This place is really exactly the same as the Xu family in Yangzhou. Even the large and small ornaments are the same. I walked in all the way. I was a little surprised, it seems that Xiao Qi is really interested in you and actually built an identical Xu family for you."

Xu Miaoyin's eyes darkened, but she still said with a smile: "Let's not talk about him. Ah Wan lives in Ling Yuexuan now. You and I live in Lanyin Yuan, so we can have a good talk."

Qi Yue also said wisely: "That's necessary, but, sister, I'm hungry!"

Xu Miaoyin touched her belly when she saw that her boss was still acting coquettishly, she pursed her lips and chuckled, got up and went out to let Yushu prepare the meal.

After the meal was over, Qi Yue took Xu Miaoyin to stroll around the garden.

The two of them strolled leisurely in the garden. Xu Miaoyin looked at her rubbing her belly and teased: "I made you eat so much. You must have accumulated food. You are still acting like a child."

Qi Yue spread his hands and said: "Hey, you don't know that I have been sleeping in the open air in the past few days in order to travel, and I have eaten steamed buns and sesame cakes. After finally arriving in Yujing City, I naturally have to have a full meal."

Xu Miaoyin smiled helplessly. It was her own fault. She only asked her to come here in her letter and forgot to tell her not to rush here.

"It's my fault too. I didn't make it clear to you in the letter."

"Speaking of this, sister, why didn't I see Aduo? Where are the others?"

Xu Miaoyin stopped, took a deep breath, then looked forward and said, "Aduo's life or death is uncertain. That's why I came to you."

Xu Miaoyin looked at Qi Yue, grabbed her arm holding her, and said in a pleading tone: "Ah Yue, are you willing to help me?"

Qi Yue could already feel her hand holding his wrist beginning to tremble. Worried that she was having a heart attack, he reassured her, "I do. Let's go back first and talk slowly."

Xu Miaoyin nodded, Qi Yue gently supported her and slowly returned to Lanyin Courtyard.

Along the way, Xu Miaoyin also briefly talked about what happened during this period.

Qi Yue helped her sit on the soft couch, covered her legs with a blanket, and then asked: "So, you suspect that Xiao Qi is hiding something from you?" Xu Miaoyin sighed softly and said: "At first, I wanted to keep it simple. Xiao Qi's feelings for me are true, and he is willing to do anything for me, but when it comes to imperial power, I am not the only one he cares about."

"After so many years, he has only reduced Rong Guo Gong's power in the court to a few pieces. Now he only controls Li Yang. It can be seen that Rong Guo Gong's strength should not be underestimated. Whoever has military power has a voice. Quan, this is an eternal truth. He is the king of a country and considers the country and the people. I have no problem with it. However, he still attacked Xiao Duo. I don’t understand. Xiao Duo no longer poses any threat to him. , why would he attack him?"

Qi Yue asked: "Has he explained it to you?"

Xu Miaoyin shook her head and smiled mockingly, "Explanation? If he told me the reason, why would he put me under house arrest here?"

Qi Yue frowned slightly and said: "According to your statement, Xu Xian, the head of the Xu family, has gone to Liyang to resolve the Liyang mutiny. You may be able to contact him to check Xiao Duo's whereabouts. He is Xiao Duo's uncle and should be able to help." This is busy."

Xu Miaoyin sighed helplessly, "Yuqi was assigned by Xu Xian to be by my side, but now we are trapped here and there is no way to contact Li Yang. I chose to leave the palace in the first place just to facilitate the contact with Xu Xian, without having to I contacted Xiao Qi’s shadow guard, but Xiao Qi was too sharp and actually put me under house arrest here. I have no way to contact the outside world, so I can only write to you and help me go to Liyang to find out."

Qi Yue asked doubtfully: "Didn't you say that Xiao Qi ordered that you can only enter but not leave? I've already entered another hospital, how can I write a letter for you?"

Xu Miaoyin took her hand and said: "Others are not sure, but I believe you must have a way. After all, you are the best person to deal with Qin Zhan."

Qi Yue was stunned for a moment before she realized that Xu Miaoyin was making fun of herself. She took out her hand and looked sideways at the smile at the corner of Xu Miaoyin's mouth.

"Sister, you are getting worse and worse!"

Xu Miaoyin said: "I'm watching with cold eyes. He's still waiting for you. As far as I know, he always walks alone and doesn't even have anyone to serve him. Do you really not think about it?"

It was impossible for Qi Yue not to be touched by the person who had kept him in his heart for so many years. But how far could he go with love?

Seeing that she was a little confused, Xu Miaoyin just said: "'It is easy to find priceless treasures, but it is rare to find a lover.' Ayue, please think about it carefully."

After all, she had to think clearly about the matter between men and women. Xu Miaoyin did not persuade her, but just picked up the tea cup and started drinking.

Qi Yue is a determined person, she knows what she wants?
  "Let's not talk about my affairs. In fact, you want to know a lot of information from the outside world to bring down Duke Rong. I have a way. As long as you can afford it, sister."

Xu Miaoyin looked at her with some confusion, waiting for her next words.

Qi Yue smiled proudly and said: "Sister, think about it, if we expand our business to the north and south of the Yangtze River, and have our shops and businesses all over the country, wouldn't it be easy for us to know any news?"

Yes? Why didn't she expect that as long as there were their trading houses across the country, there would be a huge information network. Since overthrowing Duke Rong Guo was not something that happened overnight, then starting from now on, she would always find an opportunity to take revenge?
  Xu Miaoyin looked at Qi Yue approvingly and said with a smile: "Ah Yue, thank you!"

Qi Yue felt a little embarrassed when she saw her. She also learned this from TV. The specific deployment still had to be done step by step.

"Sister, please don't thank me so early. There are no specific regulations yet."

Xu Miaoyin regained her energy, "I may not be good at spying on information, but when it comes to doing business, I still have some abilities. Let's sort this out before you go to Liyang."

Qi Yue immediately lamented, "We have just arrived, my sister, at least let me rest for a night!"
