Chapter 1560: Chapter 1557 Decision
Especially those rebellious words spoken by that man. If Chu Heng hadn’t already reported to the Emperor the matter of building an advanced loom, even though the Emperor knows that Chu Heng has no such grand ambition, hearing this rumor would make him feel uneasy, perhaps even leaving a thorn in his heart.
The precedent of Duke Zheng is still fresh, and now Emperor Xuanming abhors subjects who are insatiable and wish to undermine imperial authority.
It seems that this time Ah Heng’s interrogation of the case has really touched upon too many people’s interests, forcing them to attack mercilessly.
She was extremely worried for a moment.
These overt conspiracies are already ruthless and cold; how many private guards might strike at Ah Heng from behind? If he isn’t careful and gets injured during the investigation…
Ye Muyu’s face grew paler with the thought.
“Lady, lady…” Liuye’s voice sounded near her ear.
Ye Muyu’s fingers touched the warm teacup, the heat reflexively making her withdraw her hand, and she came to her senses.
Returning to herself, she saw Liuye’s worried gaze and shook her head at her, taking a slight sip from the teacup: “I’m fine.”
“Has the staff been arranged at the workshop?”
“Rest assured, lady. This new batch of sisters has all learned martial arts, and with those traps for protection, as long as no exceptional expert comes, they’ll be fine.”
“Good, very well,” Ye Muyu instructed, standing up, “I’ll go to the clothing shop.”
“Alright.”
Liuye wrapped her in a cloak, handed over a hand warmer, and followed her out, discreetly taking a carriage to the Yonghe Clothing Shop.
The front of the Yonghe Clothing Shop was crowded with many customers, and Zhang Hai stood at the door speaking to the crowd.
Ye Muyu dropped the carriage curtain, directing the driver to head to the back door.
As soon as Ye Muyu entered the shop through the back door, Zhang Yunlin quickly approached, appearing somewhat uneasy upon seeing her: “Greetings, lady.”
“How much longer at Shopkeeper Zhang’s side?” Ye Muyu asked.
Zhang Yunlin immediately thought of the rumor he had just heard.
At Yonghe Clothing Shop, not long after the incident erupted, many customers had come, so they also knew something had happened.
At that time, Zhang Hai had called the shop’s errand boy to inquire about the situation.
Later, Ye Muyu sent someone to pass a message to Zhang Hai and the others, instructing them to summon six people from three teams of vehicles and give further instructions on how to handle matters at the shop.
Zhang Hai, upon receiving the order, handled the information at the door, maintaining a unified message for the passing townsfolk to spread the rules of the Yonghe Clothing Shop.
The Yonghe Clothing Shop didn’t have enough manpower to notify everyone directly, and it was less likely to be manipulated if direct notifications weren’t made. It was better to let passing customers spread the word orally.
Zhang Yunlin, having digested what he’d heard, saw Ye Muyu looking over and realized he’d been in a daze for too long. He quickly said, “There are only two batches of customers left; they should be dealt with in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn at most. The people from the convoy have been notified and are coming soon.”
“Alright, once they arrive, have them come into the room to see me,” Ye Muyu said, heading directly into the clothing shop’s private reception room.
Zhang Yunlin nodded respectfully, his heart undergoing significant change. First, he instructed the errand boy to serve tea, then slowly paced towards the front hall.
The shop, besides selling cotton clothing, also had other fabrics and ready-made garments on sale, so there were still a few scattered customers.
Zhang Hai, in front of one door, was explaining the rules of the Yonghe Clothing Shop to the large number of cotton clothing buyers, speaking until his mouth was dry, while he managed the other customers in the shop.
