Chapter 172 The lion opens its mouth

"Then..." Qingyu hesitated, "besides appearance?"

"Besides her looks," Li Mulan picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, "she's good at martial arts."

Whisper frowned, "That's all?"

Li Mulan was a little puzzled when she saw her like that, "Rich? He is the regent, second only to the emperor, so he should be quite rich."

"Those are external things. What I'm talking about is what you think of the other person? His character, personality, etc."

Li Mulan waved her hands. "How would I know? I'm not familiar with him. Besides, sister, don't think that material things are unimportant. You can't live without money."

She laughed softly, "You are not short of money."

"Who said that? I am short of money. Besides, my money is my money. It doesn't conflict with his money."

Qingyu saw her attitude and thought that she was going to argue with her about the importance of money, so she stopped immediately and said, "Okay, let's talk about this later. When you were not at home today, someone came to the Zhang Mansion."

"Zhang Mansion? Which Zhang Mansion?" Li Mulan didn't react for a moment.

"The Zhang Mansion in the Minister of Rites' Mansion."

"Ah~ It's my grandparents' house. Why are they here? Who are they? I remember that my grandparents are still under house arrest. Has he been released?"

Qingyu shook her head, "Minister Zhang didn't come, it was his wife, Guo."

Li Mulan curled her lips and asked, "Why is she here?" It probably wasn't good news.

"I came here to make a scene, but was scared away by Uncle Zhang."

"Make a fuss? Why is she making a fuss? Isn't it all over now? What right does she have to come here and make a fuss?"

"That's true, but it depends on the person. Now that my aunt has the imperial edict, she probably thinks it's profitable. But this Guo is not a smart person. She made a scene at the gate and insisted on seeing my aunt. Uncle Zhang didn't let anyone in. They had broken off the relationship a long time ago, so why would she want to see him? Later, he said he would report to the authorities, and the man left cursing. But there were a lot of people watching the fun outside, and my aunt found out later. I guess she felt bad."

"Tsk, what kind of people are they? They cut off all ties with my daughter's family when they were exiled, but now they're jumping on them again when they see benefits, like a blood-sucking leech. Uncle Zhang did a good job, this is how it should be."

"Yes, go see your aunt later. She must be feeling very uncomfortable."

"My mother wouldn't be upset about someone like that, but I'll go check it out anyway. What is she busy with?"

As he said that, he stood up and walked out of the yard, with Qingyu following closely behind him.

"We are going to move back to the Taifu Mansion in two days. There are a lot of chores to do. I helped sort out the things to be moved this morning. There are quite a lot of things. Fortunately, many of the returned properties are still unpacked, so we can move directly."

Li Mulan suddenly felt guilty. She didn't help. "Thanks to my sister's help, I, as a daughter, have to play outside every day. It's really outrageous."

"Uncle Zhang and I are here to help. It's none of your business."

"Sister, don't say that. I haven't seen Uncle Zhang for several days."

Li Mulan was very grateful to have these two helpers, otherwise she would have to do it all on her own.

Qingyu pursed her lips and smiled softly, "Uncle Zhang is very busy, but he probably won't be here for long. There are a lot of things going on at the Charity Bureau, and he's been away for too long. Long Yi is also here, and I don't know if Xiao Qi can manage that group of people alone with his things."

Speaking of this Xiao Qi, Li Mulan's eyebrows were furrowed so much that they could pinch a mosquito to death. He was a complete devil. He was only fifteen years old, but he was already giving Li Mulan a headache. He was also a martial arts genius, comparable to Huo Yuanruo.

"What could possibly happen to him? The only ones who would be in trouble would be other people. Sister, don't bother worrying about him. It's totally unnecessary."

She whispered, covering her lips, "If Xiao Qi knew you said that about him, he would be heartbroken."

"He's sad? He's heartless. I just hope he can stay in Forget-Sorrow Valley for two more years and not come out."

"Then you will probably be disappointed. I heard from Long Yi that this child is extremely talented. If he hadn't increased the difficulty of the training, Xiao Qi would have met the conditions to leave the valley long ago."

Li Mulan's eyes widened. "Don't do that. Tell Long Yi to hold on a little longer and don't let this disaster come out."

"Then go talk to Long Yi yourself. I think he will find it difficult."

Li Mulan was helpless. "After all, I was once the number one killer, but I can't even defeat a child?"

She smiled softly, "Is that a normal child?"

Oh, yes, she was deceived by this brat that year, so she took him in. Who knew that he would leave behind such a disaster, and his destructive power was too amazing. If he really left the valley, she didn't know how much trouble that boy could cause her.

"Forget it, we'll talk about it later. Ask Uncle Zhang to come over tonight, I just have something to discuss with him. By the way, where's Little Grasshopper? I've been checking the accounts for several days, but I can't find him."

"He came here yesterday, gave Uncle Zhang some money, and left in a hurry. Didn't you give him the recipes for those skin care products? He is busy and full of energy."

"Oh, this guy is more obsessed with money than me. Forget it, let's get busy so that we won't hinder the big shopkeeper Li from making money."

Qingyu tapped her forehead and said, "That's also to make money for you."

Li Mulan laughed, "That's right, hahaha, if you are a money-grubber, then be a money-grubber. It's all my money anyway."

That smug smile made people feel helpless. How could there be such a shameless person?

Li Mulan originally wanted to go and comfort Zhang, but she didn't expect that Zhang was not influenced by those people and was busy preparing to move back to the Taifu Mansion.

Speaking of Guo, her former stepmother, Zhang was no longer as fearful and timid as before. She even threatened that if she dared to speak out again next time, she would never let her go. Her aunt was already gone, so she would settle all the old and new accounts together. Who was afraid of whom?

Li Mulan was happy to see such a change in Zhang. As the mistress of a mansion, she must have such courage.

Zhulu City, the border between Da Chu and Simon.

At this moment, Prince Cheng Chuyu was meeting with Duanmu Huo, the legitimate son of General Duanmu Qing of Simon, and Situ Yue, the third prince of Northern Qi.

They have reached an agreement for this purpose, working together inside and outside to force Chu Chenfeng and the little emperor to retreat and help King Cheng to ascend the throne.

As for the conditions, naturally, they were to divide up a few cities and give away countless gold and jewels.

Although King Cheng was very dissatisfied with their exorbitant demands, he had no choice but to compromise given the current situation.

When he ascends the throne, he will find a way to take it back. Chu Chenfeng was able to control the military power for so many years, and the surrounding countries dared not invade. Chu Yu can do the same. He just didn't have the opportunity before. If he is given the opportunity, he will definitely not be worse than Chu Chenfeng.

Duanmu Huo and Situ Yue left contentedly, leaving Chu Yu standing there with a gloomy face.
