Chapter 276 Something big is going to happen
Su Nuan didn't care about the Queen Mother's expression and continued, "It's hard work, but luckily the UBS Building has a good profit. We distributed money to everyone during the opening event, so I'm considering whether to find a reason to hold another event, not only to make some money for everyone, but also to liven up the atmosphere."
"It's good to be lively! I just like lively things."
The Queen Mother warmed up again.
"I will ask the best craftsman to make a pair of jade bracelets for the Empress Dowager. As usual, they will be kept in the store for display and will be sent to the palace after the event."
The Queen Mother curved her eyebrows and said, "You are also a filial child. When you organize activities, bring Jingshu with you. That child loves excitement the most and understands my thoughts the best."
She wanted Dong Jingshu to pay for it again. Su Nuan felt sorry for Dong Jingshu. Her heart was taken advantage of by this old woman.
She had a good plan. The jade bracelet was hers anyway. If she gave it to her, she would only get one jade bracelet. If Dong Jingshu bought it for her, she would not only get the jade bracelet but also a share of the profit from the sale of the jade bracelet.
Does the Queen Mother like silver so much? Why does she need so much silver?
Su Nuan couldn't figure it out. She just felt that the way the empress dowager calculated money was inconsistent with her status.
But no matter what, she successfully painted a big pie for the Queen Mother and curbed her thoughts of taking her money.
The Queen Mother asked about some details of Su Nuan's business, but Su Nuan answered vaguely. She didn't dare to mention her other businesses to her. If the old woman was embarrassed and insisted on getting involved, she would be so angry that she would die.
After saying some meaningless words, both of them had been pushed to their limits.
The Queen Mother finally used the old excuse of being tired to send Su Nuan away.
When Su Nuan came out of the Empress Dowager's Yongshou Palace, she was stopped by a young eunuch.
"Concubine Xia, the Crown Prince asked me to pass a message to you, asking you to wait for him outside the Imperial Study."
"Okay, but I don't know how to get to the Imperial Study. Can you lead the way for me?"
So the young eunuch took Su Nuan all the way to the outside of the imperial study.
Inside, the emperor was discussing matters with his ministers. Mu Yunting's heart seemed to be growing weeds. He stood in front of the dragon desk with a wandering look and an anxious expression.
The emperor understood this situation. When he was in court, those ministers who couldn't hold their urine all looked like this.
After all, he was his most proud son, and the emperor was reluctant to let him hold it in for too long, so he quickly finalized a few issues and hastily ended the meeting. He also gave the prince some time to solve the problem under the pretext of changing his clothes.
Mu Yunting wanted to know where his concubine Xia was now, so he hurried out of the imperial study when he had the chance.
As soon as I came out, I saw Su Nuan squatting beside the steps, stroking the white jade railing, looking like she couldn't let it go.
Mu Yunting’s first thought was to install this railing in Duiyueju.
But as soon as this thought came to his mind, he suppressed it. It was too dangerous. If his father knew about it, he would skin him alive.
Mu Yunting quietly walked to Su Nuan and wanted to scare her by speaking.
Suddenly Su Nuan turned around, rolled her eyes, stuck out her tongue, and pretended to be a hanged ghost.
At first sight, Mu Yunting was so shocked that he took a step back.
Seeing this, Su Nuan covered her mouth and laughed.
It's not that she has to pay attention to her manners, but she doesn't dare laugh too loudly. This is outside the imperial study. If she disturbs the emperor, she will definitely be scolded.
She couldn't accept being scolded by someone of her age, even if that person was the emperor.
Seeing her smile, Mu Yunting recovered from his initial shock. Seeing Su Nuan smile, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.
Several ministers who walked out a few steps slower than Mu Yunting were so excited when they saw this scene that some of them with shallow tear dimples even wiped away their tears.
"Ancestor bless!"
Their Crown Prince finally doesn't like men anymore!
When Su Nuan heard the voice, she turned around and met the eager gazes of several adults.
Quite scary!
She unconsciously leaned closer to Mu Yunting.
Mu Yunting also noticed the looks of the adults. He stepped in front of Su Nuan and blocked her with his body.
The adults were very pleased to see this, and on the way out, they were already discussing helping the emperor come up with a title for the emperor's eldest grandson.
After the emperor changed into his casual clothes and sat back at the dragon desk, he still had one important thing he hadn't told the prince, which was the theft in the warehouse. This kind of thing was not easy to publicize, so he could only discuss it with the prince.
"Where is the prince?"
Eunuch Cao, who was standing by, replied, "Concubine Xia is outside the imperial study, and the Crown Prince is talking to her right now."
"Why is she here?"
"It seems that he went to pay his respects to the Queen Mother."
"Oh, I forgot about this. I haven't seen this girl for a long time. Go and call her in."
"Yes."
Eunuch Cao walked out of the imperial study in small steps and found that the Crown Prince had already walked a long way away with his concubine.
"Hey, Your Highness, where are you going? Wait for me, old slave!"
Eunuch Cao's voice was sharp and thin, and it traveled very far.
Mu Yunting pretended not to hear and pulled Su Nuan faster and faster.
"Your Highness, wait for me, this old servant. His Majesty wants to see Concubine Xia. Please come back soon!"
Eunuch Cao was jogging behind, out of breath, and only stopped after he shouted this sentence.
Turning around, he asked, "Why does Father want to see her?"
"Your Majesty, His Majesty said that he hasn't seen Concubine Xia for a long time. Your Highness, please go back quickly and don't keep His Majesty waiting."
The three of them turned around and walked back.
On the way, Su Nuan lowered her voice and asked Mu Yunting: "Didn't you want to see the emperor just now?"
Mu Yunting frowned and replied, "Father asked me to discuss something, most likely to discuss the marriage between Fanli Kingdom and the Kingdom of Fanli. If Father makes things difficult for you later, just push everything onto me."
When Su Nuan heard the word "marriage", her heart sank. She walked in silence without saying a word.
The two men walked in front, and Eunuch Cao followed behind. The sunlight shining on the pair of people in front seemed to give them a layer of golden light.
Suddenly, a spot of green in the dazzling light attracted Eunuch Cao's attention.
It was an emerald jade lotus hairpin on Concubine Xia's head. The hairpin was emerald green all over, and it was obvious at first glance that it was the best jade.
The hairpin had a unique shape, with a lotus bud that had just opened on the top.
Eunuch Cao secretly took out a booklet from his sleeve pocket, which recorded the treasures stolen from the warehouse yesterday, and there was a picture behind each treasure.
This jadeite jasper lotus hairpin is exactly the item in the book.
Eunuch Cao suddenly felt that the booklet in his hand was a little hot.
He really hoped that he was seeing things, but the hairpin was exactly the same as the description in the booklet.
Eunuch Cao wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought that something big was going to happen today.
