Chapter 1660: Chapter 1657: Inquiry

“Especially regarding the injury, I was concerned that Lord Rong might have twisted something while saving my daughter, so I quickly sent to invite Doctor Lu. Regardless of the circumstances, Lord Rong did save my daughter, and I can only be at ease if he is well.”

Old Madame Li seemed to ask this casually.

“Speaking of which, thank you to your Ziluo for saving Chun’er. If she hadn’t hesitated for that moment, she could have left first herself, and Chun’er would have been the one injured,” Old Madame Li said while patting her hand.

Ye Muyu was well aware of everything that happened on the field just now. Even if she didn’t see it clearly at the time, she had asked Liuye for details. Hearing this, she modestly replied, “That child appears gentle normally, but she’s truly kind-hearted. Besides, even if it hadn’t been Miss Li, Ziluo would have done it to spare anyone from getting hurt.”

“Old madam, you don’t need to worry about it. It was just good luck for Miss Li; she shouldn’t have gone through this ordeal.”

Old Madame Li shook her head: “Oh, but Ziluo saving Chun’er is a fact. After the events, I will personally bring that girl Chun’er to your door to thank you.”

“Old madam, you flatter us too much. If Miss Li wishes, she is welcome to come to the residence to chat with Ziluo, and I would warmly welcome her,” Ye Muyu certainly wouldn’t really let Old Madame Li come to the residence. Regardless of why the other party said this in public, she wouldn’t accept this offer.

Old Madame Li smiled and agreed, not continuing the conversation.

The two did not stay long, especially as there were other wounded people to attend to afterwards.

The Elder Princess and Old Madame Li soon left.

At this moment, Princess Weisaiya suddenly spoke to Ye Muyu: “Madam Chu? Are you the wife of that Lord Chu? The Cashmere Cloth you all produce?”

Weisaiya’s tone was stilted, but she managed to make herself clear.

Ye Muyu didn’t expect Princess Weisaiya to suddenly ask this, but she reacted quickly, smiling lightly and nodding: “The first half of your words, Princess, are correct. As for the Cashmere Cloth, it was developed by many embroiderers of our Great Chu.”

“Do your shops still have Cashmere Cloth?” Princess Weisaiya asked directly.

Ye Menglu answered very politely: “Your Highness, the Cashmere Cloth is now only a tribute item, all located in the Imperial Palace.”

“I see.” Princess Weisaiya was evidently disappointed, also showing her interest in the Cashmere Cloth. In fact, many ministers in court were interested in the Cashmere Cloth, especially considering the potential to save raw materials, which made many appreciate the value within.

However, those who eyed these small gains were generally lower-ranked officials.

Those in the cabinet, among the Six Ministers, were more focused on relations with Beirong, especially in terms of trade. Even though Emperor Xuanming had not yet brought up this matter, it was obvious to insightful individuals that this was a matter of certainty, just awaiting someone to propose it and for it to then be put on the agenda.

Ye Muyu had no intentions to meddle in court affairs and naturally would not privately host Beirong envoys. Even if there were to be cooperation, now was not the time.

She believed that Chu Heng, with his personality, would have already prepared a contingency plan.

Her trust in Chu Heng was as unwavering as her trust in herself.

After that, Princess Weisaiya conversed with King Qi.

When she heard the two mention the Sacred Girl of Southern Border, Ye Muyu belatedly realized that it had been two quarters of an hour since the incident occurred, yet the Sacred Girl of Southern Border was still nowhere to be seen.

Moreover, before the incident, the Sacred Girl of Southern Border hadn’t returned; only her attendants had come back to ask the Elder Princess if a doctor was required.
