Chapter 336: Chapter 336: Something Happened!

"By the mandate of heaven, the Emperor decrees that Imperial Censor Li Qingmu is rewarded for his meritorious service in safeguarding the imperial carriage, and is granted with a heavy reward, specifically two pairs of Green Leaf Blue Jade Ruyi, ten measures of South Sea Pearls, and a hundred bolts of brocade and silk..."

Outside the General Mansion, Eunuch Xiao Chen, Chen Yan, was still performing the errands, but this time he was delivering good news, so his eyes formed crescents with a smile of joy.

One box after another of rewards was carried inside, filling the vast courtyard of the General Mansion, and then the boxes were opened, revealing the dazzling treasures inside.

"Congratulations, Imperial Censor Li!" Chen Yan squinted with a smile, his attitude very kind, "Ah, perhaps soon, I may not be able to address you as Imperial Censor anymore!"

With so much given by the Emperor, he should be promoted, right?

Everyone thought so.

Li Qingmu just smiled faintly; whether he got promoted or not, he didn’t mind.

"Moreover, the Emperor specifically instructed that you should visit him in the Imperial Study Room tomorrow."

"Alright, thank you, Eunuch Xiao Chen!"

"Eunuch Xiao Chen, take care."

Long Yue stepped forward and naturally slipped two golden ingots into his hand.

Chen Yan was slightly taken aback, wanting to refuse, but Long Yue insisted, and he accepted them with a smile.

Once he left, Long Yue chuckled, "That Xiao Chen is just greedy for money. Previously, I used golden ingots to make him hand over the task of punishing, and then I beat Pang Shuangyue until flowers bloomed on her face. As a result, he was punished by the Emperor afterwards, probably holds full of resentment. These two ingots are just compensation."

Previously, there was no choice but to scheme against people, but isn’t it necessary to show some goodwill?

Now is an opportunity.

After all, announcing such good news deserves a reward, it’s an unwritten rule, and no one would say anything.

"Master, Mrs. Su is here!"

Long Yue was just about to count the items when Wang Xiaoliu brought Yang Zhuoya over.

These days, Yang Zhuoya often came to visit Li Qingmu at his home, occasionally helping with some minor tasks, and the relationship between the two women grew closer.

"Sister Yue, has Imperial Censor Li recovered?"

"He’s fine, can jump and leap, can go up and down, very agile!"

Speaking of Li Qingmu, Long Yue felt annoyed, the man wasn’t fully healed, and yet last night he...

Isn’t he afraid of dying?

Seeing him pounce forward, Long Yue really wanted to kick him under the bed, but considering his injuries, she endured.

As a result, yesterday he had enough of her.

Long Yue was truly worried he might rupture his wounds, and blood would flow!

This person, he excels at risking everything!

Yang Zhuoya originally wanted to ask how Li Qingmu’s injuries were, but Long Yue’s fiery response left her unsure of what to say.

She looked bewilderedly at the handsome man standing leaning against a big tree not far away, her big eyes rolling, wondering what happened.

Li Qingmu stood with arms crossed, looking calm, possessing the resilience to remain composed even when facing a collapsing mountain.

This... what’s going on?

Yang Zhuoya sensed a bit of tension between the couple?

Long Yue turned around, looking at him with disdain, "Well-behaved at home, do not run around, Sister Yang, didn’t you say yesterday you wanted to buy some clothes for your Dou Dou? Let’s go to the street and take a look! By the way, you take these pearls, let them serve as Little Doudou’s birthday gift."

Yang Zhuoya’s son Dou Dou was already one year old, and she planned to hold a banquet, Long Yue was fretting about what to give the little guy, but now with so much from the Emperor, she doesn’t need to worry.

Yang Zhuoya was startled and quickly declined, "These are imperial gifts, I’m afraid it’s not appropriate..."

"What’s inappropriate? The Emperor gave them to us, they are our possessions; it’s up to us how we dispose of them. Take them!"

Yang Zhuoya couldn’t refuse, so she took two, feeling grateful.

The pearls were as big as a child’s fists, definitely treasures among treasures; it seemed the Emperor wasn’t as harsh and unkind as rumors said.

Then Long Yue and Yang Zhuoya went out together.

The Su Family’s conditions were quite good, and Yang Zhuoya’s child turning one year old, she planned to hold a banquet, which required extensive preparations.

Yang Zhuoya brought a relatively spacious carriage, akin to a freight truck.

"Why didn’t you have your servants purchase?"

Long Yue found it a bit unusual; with Su Shi’s temperament, he wouldn’t let Yang Zhuoya herself do such tasks, right?

"It’s for the child’s use, how could I not feel assured doing it myself?"

Oh, so that’s the reason. Long Yue thought, if she had a child, she would certainly do it herself too.

Thinking this, she understood.

Child... Long Yue’s eyes were a bit sorrowful, when will she have one?

Shopping around with Yang Zhuoya, they bought many items, foodstuff and utilities, as well as toys for the little child, like windmills and rattles, all sorts.

"Oh, Lady Yue, Mrs. Su, you’re here? Come in, take a seat!"

At the Su Jinxiu Workshop, just as Long Yue and Yang Zhuoya arrived, Yun Niang personally came to attend to them.

Yun Niang was very grateful to Long Yue; without her, their Qin Xiu wouldn’t have developed so well, especially since last time when the fabrics across from Xu Jinji had issues, more guests came over to them.

The business has been busy, with staff shortage, she hired others to work for her, allowing herself to have some leisure, and set up an exquisite room inside for rest.

She welcomed Long Yue and Yang Zhuoya into the room, pouring tea for them both.

"No need to be so polite, Yun Niang."

Long Yue smiled as she spoke, but Yun Niang pouted and said, "You are my major patron and the owner of the shop, how could I not be polite? Come, have a drink, these tea leaves just arrived, they’re sweet and delightful."

Long Yue took a sip, indeed, the tea tasted very good.

"Yun Niang, is there any new stock lately? Sister Yang wants to buy some fabric and ready-made clothes."

"Preferably the softer ones since I want to make clothes for Dou Dou."

Yang Zhuoya added from the side.

"Don’t worry, Madam Su, my fabrics are all very soft and delicate. We’re all old friends, no need for long introductions. By the way, we’ll have a new batch coming these days, should I send someone to notify you?"

"These days? How long will it be? Dou Dou’s birthday is approaching!"

"Should be soon!"

"Then get me some first!"

"..."

Yang Zhuoya and Yun Niang chatted happily while Long Yue sat beside them, feeling somewhat lonely and lost.

Talking about children was always a sore point for her.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, the door swung open, and a person dressed as a servant rushed in hurriedly; he was anxious, his steps weak, with a frightened face.

"Bad news, owner, bad news, something serious happened!"

He burst in and ran to their room, panting as he shouted.

Yun Niang didn’t like the noise, frowned and said displeased, "What’s the matter? Speak slowly!"

The person took a deep breath, held onto the wall, swallowed hard, and said, "Owner, our fabrics, during transportation, met a gang of horse bandits, and... were robbed!"
