" After returning to the Yu Residence, Yu Yan 'er sat by the window on the second floor. She looked at the last flower in her hand and silently peeled it off."I like…"
She stood rooted to the ground, staring at the lake outside the window. After a while, she thought of something and came back to her senses.
"Miss Yan 'er, you're back? Did Daren show mercy?" At this moment, the maid came to the Yu residence.
"Daren rejected it."
"Really? Hehe, Daren is really open-minded. He is a good official.”
"Yes!" Yu Yan 'er said softly.
" Miss Yan 'er, why do you seem a little unhappy? Isn't this the best thing for you? Now that you can pursue your own happiness, you don't have to repay your kindness and stay here. It's still a good thing to be a concubine. Miss, you're famous throughout the capital, and even the Emperor has special eyes for you. There are so many talented and beautiful scholars in the capital who have trampled through the threshold of the Yu residence."Miss, you don't have to feel guilty. There are many other ways to repay Lord Mu.”
"It doesn't seem like guilt…" Yu Yan 'er said absentmindedly.
" Miss…You…" The little girl felt that something was wrong. She widened her eyes and could not speak clearly."Miss Yan 'er, you, you, you can't have fallen in love with adults, right?”
" I don't know…" Yu Yan 'er was confused.
"Miss, you must really like it.”The little girl looked at the latter's attitude and understood." That's true. His Excellency is at Level Four. He's also talented and good-looking. He's famous all over the world. He's also indebted to you. Now that he's done this, it's normal for you to be moved. It'd be strange if you're not…"
"Miss, you finally have someone you like?" The little girl was delighted.”
The threshold of marriage proposals was almost broken, but the Young Miss still did not fancy any of them. The Eldest Young Miss of the Yu Family had very high standards. This had already spread throughout the capital, but the Young Miss was finally moved?
Waves surged in his heart.
"This is a good thing." Ling 'er smiled. If Master Yu had not offended too many people by rejecting Miss Yan' er, he would not have ended up like this if he had agreed to some noble's request and betrothed Miss Yan 'er. It was also because of this that it could be seen that Miss Yan' er's name was well-known in the capital, and even the Emperor had bestowed her with the Emperor's grace. It seemed like a good thing, but in reality, it was not necessarily a good thing to keep her from marrying out.
If Master Yu knew about this, he would definitely be happy.
"Miss, did you express your feelings to the Lord…"
"Daren rejected it. Daren didn't believe it.”Yu Yan 'er's voice flashed with a hint of resentment.
" This..." The little girl looked at her resentful young miss and completely understood. She was instantly happy and quickly comforted her,""Miss Yan 'Er, normal men wouldn't believe it. After all, Miss didn't have any feelings for you before. If you suddenly said that you did, I wouldn't believe it even if it was Ling' Er, let alone you. This is a good thing. It shows that you are a good person and don't want to harm Miss. You are worthy of Miss's love. Miss, if you really like her, then try and fight for her. As long as you believe that Miss has intentions, I believe that you won't be able to reject her. How many people in the world could bear to reject the young miss?”
Yu Yan 'er's beautiful eyes lit up, and she said,""Ling 'er, bring me a brush and ink."
"What is Miss doing?" Ling 'er blinked and asked curiously.
"The Autumn Meet will be in five days, followed by the Autumn Examination and the Court Examination.”The autumn wind was slightly cold. Yu Yan 'er tightened her thin clothes and smiled on her weak little face."Send an invitation to Daren, inviting him to the Autumn Meeting.”
"Miss, Ling 'er will go now." The little girl ran away happily.
After a while, Ling 'er returned with an ugly expression.
"What's wrong?" Yu Yan 'er asked.
"Young Lady, I just heard from Furen and the others that Duke Jing Guo personally went to the Mu residence to propose marriage for Princess Wan Yang.”
" This..." Yu Yan 'er's face instantly paled."Milord, have you agreed?"
" Young Miss, are you stupid? Lord is still in prison, of course he didn't agree…" Ling 'er's expression turned even uglier."Furen and the others also said that besides Duke Jing, the current third-grade Shuntian Prefect, as well as many other nobles, seem to have the same idea…Miss, it's so difficult for you.”
Ling 'er sympathized with her young miss. It was not easy for her to fall in love with someone, but in the end, it was so difficult.
Yu Yan 'er bit her thin lips and stopped talking.
……
"Sir, how long do you think she will lock you up this time?”In the cell, Zuo Qingshang and Mu Yu were chatting.
"It doesn't matter. There's nothing important for now. With Shang 'er here, you can be locked up for as long as you want.”Mu Yu smiled.
Zuo Qingshang's face turned slightly red. Her Excellency always said such embarrassing words…
"I can't lock him up for too long. If we really count, there are quite a lot of things.”Mu Yu was still worried about the border and the sale of refined salt. He wondered how the harvest at the Duke of Wei was. Whether his mission could be completed and whether he could rush to the border in time, Yuwen Shu was still waiting.
In fact, he had many things to do. For example, he wanted to trigger some missions, get some delicious food, get some seasonings, mainly seasonings, and raise pigs to get some pork from the future. Most of the pork in this world was not marinated, and it tasted extremely fishy. There was room for improvement. These were all to improve his living environment. There was not much to say, but there was really not much to say.
It was fine to live together, or work hard to live a better life.
It wasn't unacceptable to have a bird in one's mouth, but since they could eat good things, they naturally wanted to eat something good.
Mu Yu especially missed the grilled meat, crayfish, sliced fish, hot and sour noodles, and all kinds of delicious hotpots in his previous life...
If there was a chance, he would naturally want to reappear.
This time, Mu Yu was only locked up for three days.
He was released on the afternoon of the third day.
……
Mu Manor.
"Mu Hou, my lord has invited you to his residence as a guest.”
" Mu Hou, my lord also invited you to his residence as a guest. I wanted to visit you personally, but I was worried that you were unwell, so I didn't want to disturb you…"
" Marquis Mu..." Mu Yu was in the courtyard, preparing to continue eating. At the same time, he was thinking about whether he could make some delicious food to improve his food. In the end, before he could sit down and warm his butt, a visitor came to his door.
Not to mention the visitors, on the way back from the imperial prison, he would occasionally 'run into' other officials by the roadside.
One by one, the officials asked him about his well-being, whether he had a woman he liked, whether he had any plans to get married…
Mu Yu replied that he had no plans to get married and that he could not reveal anything else.
He also felt that it was strange. Did these officials have nothing better to do? Instead of resting properly after court, he came to the streets to sit in a palanquin and stroll around, and he kept bumping into each other? Was today a special day? So the officials were acting out of character?
Mu Yu's doubts were reasonable.
Because the current Emperor had to attend the morning court session very early, and the officials needed to attend even earlier. In modern terms, they basically had to get up at three or four in the morning, wash up, and get dressed. After they arrived at the court, they would line up in the hall, and then outside the hall. Then, the Emperor would come to the morning court session at six or seven in the morning.
Naturally, they would not be able to rest well. Therefore, after the morning court session, most officials would go back to catch up on sleep. They would basically sleep in the morning and deal with official business in the afternoon. It was fine if they had time to go out and stroll, but why would they all go out and stroll?
"What festival is it today?" That was what Mu Yu thought at the time.
Not long after he returned, the butlers and servants of the officials and nobles came to visit. They even brought invitations and invited him again and again.
Mu Yu was confused. He finally dismissed them all. After rejecting them one by one, Mu Yu said,"Shang 'er, what do these nobles and archdukes mean?”Mu Yu looked at the group of invitations and gasped. None of them had a small background.
"My lord." Zuo Qingchang's expression was calm, without joy or anger, and she said,""Shang 'er is not sure, but I guess that he wants to help Daren settle his marriage.”
"Oh?" Mu Yu's eyes lit up.。”
"Milord seems to be very interested." Zuo Qingshang said.
"I'm just asking casually. Your Young Master isn't that kind of person.”Mu Yu said," I don't have any thoughts of having three wives and four concubines."
"Milord, it should be because of the private salt.”"In addition, you are a noble and a rare good family."”
"I see. I was wondering why these old foxes were suddenly so proactive.”Mu Yu said.
"Then what did Milord think it was?"
"Of course, it's because of my noble character and integrity, which attracted these officials to drink and wear something…"
" Your Excellency..." Zuo Qingshang smiled,""Aren't you going to think about it? Although the current archdukes care about your current status and the benefits you represent, there is also the reason why you are favored by the young ladies of the various families. If the young ladies of the various families are unwilling, they will not come to invite you…"
"What do you mean?" Mu Yu was shocked.
"Daren was originally born handsome, and now that your reputation has spread throughout the world, I don't know how many women like you.”
"Is Shang 'er one of them?" Mu Yu looked straight at the latter.
Zuo Qingshang blushed slightly and said shyly,""No, no…"
"Then this official would rather not have this kind of liking.”Mu Yu said.
" Sir…" The latter's face was flushed red as she lowered her head and mumbled,""Lady Yu has also sent a letter, inviting Milord to attend the Autumn Conference.”
