They were in charge of being beautiful, and she was in charge of taking the hits.

Chapter 109 Young Master, are you jealous?

"That's right, Silan Pavilion might have to be split in two!"

Just then, two soldiers ran in to deliver the message. One was dressed in the attire of the Wu Dynasty, and the other in the attire of the Northern Desert. They looked at each other and then at each other. Not long ago, they had been drinking buddies.

"Speak!" Xiao Si and Du Lan said at the same time.

The two of them stammered, and finally secretly went to whisper in each other's ears.

After listening to Xiao Bing's description, the two looked at each other and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just a little friction between the people of the two sides when they were receiving the medicine. It's not worth doing it secretly."

Seeing that the two generals seemed to think it was nothing, they breathed a sigh of relief. The border situation had been quite tense recently, so they didn't want the other side to know about any disturbances.

"The situation here will remain the same as before. Of course, we'll have to wait until our Highness comes down and resolves the trade route issue before we can talk about it again."

"What a coincidence, our Wu Dynasty's eldest princess is also here."

Wu Ziyan's hand had almost fully recovered, but she still insisted on wearing a bandage every day, fearing that her hand would get injured again.

In this situation, he even went to the scene to supervise those distributing water. Ever since receiving Wu Chengji's letter, she has felt much more at ease.

At first, she didn't know how to handle this business matter, but when she heard that her older sister was coming, she felt much more at ease.

Even if most of Fang Yuerong's assets in the court are drained into the national treasury, she can simply expand her business to the border region and her private coffers will see a substantial increase in income.

If the Empress wants him to be recognized as her future heir, the matter of the trade route alone is far from enough. Even if she sends her other daughters, it can still be resolved, but the outcome will be different depending on whether she uses force or coercion.

The next step is to deal with the trouble with the Prime Minister. He can tell that his mother, the Empress, is quite wary of Sima Zongcheng.

It's possible that Sima Zongcheng had been colluding with Xiao Rong for a long time, and he cleverly avoided the situation each time, failing to catch any evidence, allowing her to escape each time.

As for Huang Ziliang dealing with her second sister, although the reason is still unknown, her second sister is somewhat connected with Sima Zongcheng. Since she has already done it, let them pay more attention, at least catch her tail and cut off a section of the tree root.

In the evening, Fang Yuerong returned home early and saw Wu Chengye standing in the courtyard, looking lost and hungry. She had hardly had any free time since she came here.

"What are you thinking about?"

“My older sister is coming, and I’m planning to let you open a business here. Of course, you can’t use your property name on the signboard anymore.”

"Wow, you've been racking your brains over this all by yourself. That's really tough on your little brain. You don't even have a ounce of brainpower left. How can you possibly figure this out?"

"Are you insulting me without even beating around the bush?"

"No, I was just marveling at the fact that you would actually consider starting a business with me."

"Hey, don't overthink it. I just want to use you to make money."

"Do you know that if what you just said reaches the Empress's ears, you will lose your title?" Fang Yuerong tapped her fingers lightly on the table, staring at her intently.

"I actually told you that I am a money-grubber, would I be afraid of the Empress Dowager finding out? Among all the princesses, I am the most incompetent. So what if I have some money to rely on?"

"That's perfect, I was thinking the same thing, but you'll have to give me some start-up capital."

Wu Ziyan was extremely shocked, his eyes widened. Her warehouse was practically empty, and he still needed start-up capital? He was so embarrassed!

"No money? We can have someone pay it back."

"That won't do. I always feel like you're acting strangely towards Lingchuan. You're not like that Adar, are you?"

Fang Yuerong approached, a slight smile playing on her lips: "Have you forgotten that I said I wanted to marry you?"

Wu Ziyan waved her hand, looking disbelieving and indifferent: "Are you blinded by greed? Marry me?"

"Yes, I've been in the business world for so many years, I don't think anyone would dare to marry me. Even if I'm incredibly wealthy, if you marry me, wouldn't you be making a fortune?"

"I can't agree to that right now, even though I really want to, since it would be all beneficial to me."

Fang Yuerong couldn't understand her. She wouldn't take the money that was offered to her for free, but she was so upset about other merchants paying less import duties that she was getting a headache for two days.

Does he not want to treat marriage as a transaction? But she has to show affection to so many men; what else could it be but a transaction?

Seeing that he was also deep in thought, Wu Ziyan stood up, clenched her fist, and punched his chest.

Then he walked into the room, while Yue'er watched him secretly from the shadows: "You have no sincerity at all, it's like a transaction, who would agree to that!"

He was sensible and didn't chase after her; that's what's called a sense of boundaries. But Han Yuxiu was different. He came back empty-handed and went straight to Wu Ziyan's room. Now he doesn't even try to hide from people.

As he passed Fang Yuerong, he politely greeted her. Just a few days ago, the person he was advising had become more insightful than him.

"Young master, I'm telling you, you really don't understand women."

"Moon, you understand, you understand completely!"

"You're jealous, young master."

Fang Yuerong raised his hand, making a gesture as if to hit him. Yue'er stuck out her tongue at him, then tiptoed to Wu Ziyan's door, making a "shh" gesture with her hand.

Fang Yuerong shook her head. This Yue'er of his is too bold, or maybe he's shameless!

"Ziyan, they've already prepared all the ingredients according to the recipe you gave them, but now that it's ready, no one will come to collect the spring water anymore, right?"

"Now that you're better, you still need to drink water, right? Do you all want to be Pharaohs?"

Han Yuxiu: "? What king?"

"It's nothing. You didn't come to me just to say these things, did you?"

"In the book you gave me, there was a beauty pill. I tried making it in my spare time, and after taking it myself, I felt refreshed. Here, take it."

Needless to say, just from the name, you can tell that this Yi Yan Wan is definitely a health supplement. He trusted Han Yuxiu completely, so he poured one out of the bottle, popped it into his mouth, chewed it, and found that it didn't have much flavor, just a herbal taste.

This gave her a new business opportunity. If this beauty-enhancing pill could be mass-produced and sold to high-ranking officials and nobles, wouldn't she be able to make a fortune?

Wu Ziyan cupped Han Yuxiu's face in her hands, planted a kiss on his cheek, and said with a smile in her eyes, "Yuxiu, you are truly my darling!"

Han Yuxiu was still a little dazed. He touched the spot where he had been kissed, which was still warm and damp. He had finally calmed down these past few days, and now Wu Ziyan was teasing him again.

Although he had already revealed his intentions, he would still blush at such intimate gestures, whether it was once or ten times.
