Bamboo horse is king

Chapter 78
For two consecutive days, the people in Zunwang's Mansion were frantically sweeping up goods, showing the true qualities of local tyrants.

Shen Jue'er's heart "fell" step by step, and she tried hard to tell herself, don't resist anymore, I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell.

The only morals tell myself that we must be principled in life, and that money is something outside of us.

After Shen Jue'er went through a fierce inner struggle, her heart was already calm, thinking, if Mu Jingyuan added some more "chips", she would not be hypocritical, one word, marry!

It's a pity that Mu Jingyuan didn't send more important "chips", but sent a bunch of "landmines", which made Shen Jue'er extremely anxious.

After the lunch break, Shen Jue'er was lying on the recliner with a lazy posture, holding a book in her hand, humming a little song, and she was in a good mood.

"Master, there is a big commotion at the Prince's Mansion. Daoist Chi Yuan lost all his martial arts, his veins were severed, and he is completely useless."

"Those guards are also disabled, and none of them are intact."

The corners of Shen Jue'er's lips curled up slightly, her bright eyes glowed with dazzling brilliance, and her beautiful little face was breathtaking.

"Did Mu Qizhen go to trouble Mu Jingyuan?"

"That's not true, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone to the Emperor's place to make a fuss and wants the King to give an explanation."

"Your Majesty didn't say anything, he just beat His Highness the Crown Prince violently, and the Emperor didn't hold anyone accountable in the end, so the matter was over."

Shen Jue'er raised her eyebrows, feeling weird, the emperor seemed to be extra tolerant towards Mu Jingyuan.

Thinking about it carefully, from the past to the present, as long as anything has anything to do with Mu Jingyuan, the emperor will show favoritism without principle.

Why is this?

The emperor is infatuated with Mu Jingyuan's mother and concubine?
Shen Jue'er shook her head, quickly denying this guess.

The emperor is not an infatuated person, it's almost like being in love!
When Mu Jingyuan's concubine mother was alive, the emperor treated her no differently from other concubines.

What is the reason?

There are many heirs of the emperor, and there is no shortage of outstanding ones. Why do you only like Mu Jingyuan?
King at the age of seven, titled "Zun"...

The emperor is not generally taken seriously.

Shen Jue'er couldn't figure it out, and always felt that it was not in line with common sense.

"Miss! Miss!"

The mother-in-law's eager yelling came.

Shen Jue'er frowned, "Go and see!"

Yu Qiao went out and came back not long after, with a complicated expression, hesitating to speak, "Master, that..."

"How do you hesitate?"

"Well, many people have come to the mansion to collect debts, you should go and have a look!"

"Debt collection? What kind of debt are you collecting?" Shen Jue'er was puzzled, didn't she owe anyone money?

"You will know when you go! Master Xiang asked the housekeeper to invite people to the main hall, and said that he would let you figure it out!"

Shen Jue'er got up and went to the main hall full of doubts.

Yu Qiao followed, praying in her heart that the master would not explode in anger later.

main hall
There were quite a few people standing inside and outside the hall, all middle-aged men in long gowns, about a hundred of them.

They were talking, and the scene was a bit noisy, seeing Shen Jue'er coming, everyone fell silent for a moment.

Shen Jue'er looked confused, "Who are you?"

Everyone laughed, and those who were close to Shen Jue'er handed over some forms.

Shen Jue'er took it, looked carefully, and asked suspiciously, "What are these?"

"bill!"

"I know it's a bill! I didn't buy these things. Why do you give me a bill?"

One of the middle-aged men bowed with a respectful face, "Miss Shen, these things were bought by the king, and the king asked you to pay for them!"

Shen Jue'er was stunned, "What do you mean?"

She shouldn't be hallucinating, right?

The middle-aged man smiled and explained earnestly, "Miss Shen, it's like this. We are all managers of various shops. The king bought something in our shop and asked us to ask you for money at the prime minister's mansion."

"Now we have brought the bill, and hope you can cash it as soon as possible, these are small businesses..."
