Chapter 306 A Ready-Made Super Rich Woman
Chapter 306 A Ready-Made Super Rich Woman
According to the original rules, Emperor Moyao would spend the night at the temporary palace and return to the palace early the next morning.
However, due to the assassination incident last night, the celebration could not be held, so it was decided to postpone it for one day.
Su Mowan was bored lying in bed and couldn't fall asleep. She wanted to get out of bed but wasn't afraid of giving herself away.
After having eaten porridge at noon, Su Mowan was about to close her eyes for a nap when she suddenly heard Murong Jing say, "Why don't we go back to the manor now?"
Su Mowan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she threw off the covers, trying to sit up. "Can we really leave now?"
Murong Jing pressed down, gesturing for her to lie back down. "I have something to attend to, I'll be leaving in a bit."
After saying this, Murong Jing left the bedroom, gave Feng Yue some instructions, and Feng Yue accepted the order and left.
When Emperor Moyao in the main hall heard that the King of Qin wanted to take his wife back first, he was a little unhappy.
"Shouldn't they be resting now? Why do they suddenly want to go back? I wanted them to stay here a few more days."
At this time, Consort Xiao and Consort Shen were not by Emperor Moyao's side, so Feng Yue said, "The Yanxue Kingdom suddenly sent 300,000 troops to the border the day before yesterday. Your Majesty has decided to go there as soon as possible to take charge."
Emperor Mo Yao frowned and said, "Then tell him to leave first and let my daughter-in-law rest for a few days before going back."
"The master said that Consort Su is in a bad mood and cannot be left alone. He wants to take Consort Su out for a walk to cheer her up."
Feng Yue forced himself to say it, since that was what his master had instructed him to say.
Emperor Mo Yao glared and scolded, "This is utter nonsense! After such an incident, you should be resting and recuperating. Why are you still taking it out on trips?"
Feng Yue was sprayed in the face with Emperor Mo Yao's spittle, but he calmly said, "My master said that this trip will last for a year and a half, and he is worried about leaving Consort Su alone in the mansion."
Emperor Mo Yao paused for a moment, paced a few steps, and finally asked, "How is the situation in Liuxia?"
Feng Yue said, "The master has already given the command of the 300,000-strong army to Minister Su."
Emperor Mo Yao suddenly sighed and said, "Fine, then tell the Prince of Qin to take good care of my daughter-in-law."
"Yes."
"When will you leave?"
Feng Yue lowered his head and said, "Master means the sooner the better, perhaps early tomorrow morning."
After hearing this, Emperor Moyao remained silent for a moment, then waved his hand, "Tell him to take good care of himself too."
Feng Yue remembered his master's instructions and whispered, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. His Highness Prince Jin said he wants to go with you to gain experience."
Emperor Mo Yao looked surprised, but remained relatively calm. "Why is he going to join in the fun? What does the Prince of Qin mean by this?"
"My master means that we can take Prince Jin to see him."
Emperor Mo Yao remained silent for a while, and Feng Yue thought the answer was definitely no. Finally, Emperor Mo Yao said, "If the Prince of Jin wants to go, let him go. Tell the Prince of Qin to keep a close eye on him."
"Yes."
Feng Yue left the main hall and went directly to Prince Jin, telling him that he might have to leave the next day.
His Highness Prince Jin breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that Emperor Mo Yao did not object.
"In that case, I will go back with you later. Tell my third brother to wait for me."
Knowing that His Highness Prince Jin was going to see Emperor Mo Yao and that it would take some time, Feng Yue nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will inform my master."
After leaving Prince Jin's place, Feng Yue rushed to the ministers' residences, truly keeping himself extremely busy.
About fifteen minutes later, just as Su Mowan was about to ask when they were leaving, she heard a light footstep outside.
The footsteps stopped at the door, and then Yinshuang's voice rang out: "Your Highness, Minister Su has arrived."
Su Mowan was a little confused. What was Su Mobai doing here at this time? She looked at Murong Jing, puzzled, only to see Murong Jing put away what he was holding and say to the door, "Come in."
Su Mobai was no longer wearing the red outfit from yesterday; he had changed back into flowing white clothes, the wide sleeves completely concealing the wound on his wrist.
He first looked at the bewildered Su Mowan on the bed, then turned to Murong Jing and asked, "The carriage is outside. Are you leaving now?"
"Hmm," Murong Jing responded indifferently.
So Su Mowan watched as Su Mobai approached, threw off the blanket, stretched out his hands, and said, "Let's go."
Su Mowan understood now; Murong Jing wanted Su Mobai to carry her to the carriage!
You have to go all the way in this act!
Since he was her own brother, Su Mowan wasn't embarrassed at all and sat up.
Su Mobai easily lifted her up by slipping one hand under her armpit and the other behind her knees.
Su Mowan originally wanted to reach out and hang around his neck, but after thinking about it, she only grabbed the fabric on his shoulder.
Although he was her own brother, this was the first time they had been so close. Su Mowan felt a little uncomfortable, but her heart was filled with sweetness.
Family love is such a wonderful thing! It's so heartwarming!
She gave her first princess carry in her life to Su Mobai, which made Su Mowan a little regretful.
Even Murong Jing has never hugged her like this before, sigh.
It's probably impossible for me to do this in my lifetime, but experiencing it with Su Mobai is enough to satisfy my craving.
Su Mobai suddenly looked down at her and said, "Your brother has never hugged anyone like this before. Your future sister-in-law will probably be jealous if she finds out."
"..."
This guy is definitely doing this on purpose! Murong Jing was listening right there!
Su Mowan didn't dare look at Murong Jing and urged, "Hurry up and go, you don't mind the weight but I do!"
Su Mobai chuckled and deliberately said to Murong Jing behind him, "Your Highness Prince Qin, hurry up and catch up. Oh, and don't forget Mo Wan's boots."
Su Mowan was impressed; Su Mobai actually ordered Murong Jing to carry his shoes—it was simply outrageous!
At this moment, Yinshuang, who was at the door, also heard that sentence, so she quickly came in and cleaned up the dirty clothes that Su Mowan had thrown on the bedside, and then followed Murong Jing with her boots in hand.
Feng Yue was waiting outside the bedroom door. He watched as Su Mobai carried someone out, followed by his master, and he looked very unhappy.
Ugh.
Feng Yue sighed, thinking to himself, "It's a good thing that Vice Minister Su isn't an outsider, otherwise my master's wife would be snatched away by someone else. But my master has to pretend to be lame now and can only watch helplessly!"
As Feng Yue pondered this, he went behind the wheelchair and silently began to push it.
Su Mobai carried Su Mowan out of the palace gate and almost bumped into the Seventh Princess, who had come after hearing the news.
The seventh princess's hair was a few strands messy, clearly indicating that she had just gotten out of bed and hadn't had time to comb it.
"Sister-in-law! Are you and Third Brother going back now?"
The seventh princess walked a little too fast, her breathing unsteady. She looked somewhat embarrassed.
I never expected to see Su Mobai here again in this manner.
Su Mowan hummed in agreement, then said, "Weren't you sleeping? Why did you get up again?"
These words made the Seventh Princess blush even more. "I just heard that you and the Third Prince were leaving, so I came to see you off! Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
Su Mobai stopped in his tracks, waiting for the two to talk.
Su Mowan replied dismissively, "It's too stuffy and cold here. I want to go back to the manor."
The Seventh Princess immediately realized, "Indeed, my Third Brother's Fenghua Palace is still the warmest. You should go back first, and I'll come to see you again tomorrow."
Su Mowan responded verbally, but in her heart she thought that the Seventh Princess probably wouldn't be able to see her tomorrow and would likely have to leave for Jiangnan early tomorrow morning.
After carrying the person onto the carriage, Su Mobai let go and took out a jade tablet from his sleeve, handing it to Su Mowan.
"Here, take this. Someone will come looking for you once you get to Jiangnan."
Su Mowan looked at the jade tablet in front of her, somewhat puzzled, "Someone came looking for me? What do they want with me?"
Su Mobai smiled and said, "Didn't you want to expand your restaurant? I've already chosen a location for you. All you need to do is hire a chef and you can open for business."
Su Mowan asked in surprise, "How did you know I was going to expand my restaurant?"
Su Mobai smiled faintly, raising an eyebrow with a hint of smugness, and said, "What's wrong with knowing this? There's very little your brother in this world who doesn't know something."
There was no need to choose all the restaurants for her. This was done way too quickly!
Moreover, this restaurant is essentially Su Mobai's money-making scheme; once it opens, the profits will go into her pocket.
Sigh, they say even brothers have to keep clear accounts. Could Su Mobai have some other trick up his sleeve?
Sure enough, before she could even ask, Su Mobai had already taken the initiative to say, "I forgot to tell you, from now on, all the wineries, silk shops, gambling dens, brothels, rice shops, and tea shops under my name will be managed by you."
"..."
so much!
However, what does it mean to say "I forgot to tell you"? Don't you even need to ask her if she wants to?
Besides, with so many businesses, how could she possibly manage them all! Su Mowan now finally understood why she could only see Su Mobai a few times a year; managing so many businesses was like spinning a top!
Su Mowan coughed and said, "What do you mean by handing it over to me?"
"That means all the money from now on is yours."
As Su Mobai spoke, he forcefully shoved the jade tablet into her hand and continued, "However, as you know, the Star-Picking and Moon-Playing Pavilion needs money to maintain it, so don't forget to allocate the funds when the time comes."
Su Mowan suddenly felt that the jade tablet in her hand was heavy and a little hot!
"How long do you want me to manage this for you? There has to be a time limit, right?"
Su Mobai leaned against the back door of the carriage, glancing at her sideways, "Giving it to you means a lifetime. There's going to be a war in Liuxia soon. If things go smoothly, where will your brother find the time to manage the business?"
Su Mowan understood what he meant. If all went well, after he returned to Liuxia Residence and took the throne, as the ruler of a country, he would indeed have no time to manage it.
Su Mobai was practically giving it away for free, which left Su Mowan a bit dumbfounded. Although she didn't know exactly how much of Su Mobai's business he owned, just from what Su Mobai had just said and his previous statement that it spanned five countries, she knew that Su Mobai was an extremely wealthy man!
With a simple transaction, Su Mobai made her a super-rich woman!
It feels so unreal...
Su Mowan was just fantasizing about a bright future when Su Mobai said, "Of course, if the national treasury becomes empty or something, you know what I mean?"
Su Mowan: "..."
