The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and neither of them spoke.

After a long while, Yan Mu sneered: "Don't you love Xie Zian very much? Are you going crazy now?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Of course I love my husband."

Yan Mu's face sank, "Then what are you doing here?"

Liu Yunxiang turned to look at Yan Mu, "I want to make a deal with Mr. Yan."

"Oh?"

"Are you collecting food for the camp on the outskirts of Beijing?"

Yan Mu narrowed his eyes and said, "Why, is it possible that you have food?"

"Have."

"I want tens of thousands of stones, not a few buckets!"

"Is one hundred thousand enough?"

Yan Mu stood up suddenly and looked at Liu Yunxiang with wide eyes, "You said you have one hundred thousand shi of food?"

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "I borrowed 10 taels of silver from you before, right? I spent all that money to buy grain."

"You said you bought all the grain?"

"Correct."

"So you knew early on that there would be a famine in Shengjing?"

Liu Yunxiang chuckled, "I just want to open a grain store and store more grain."

"Which grain store needs to store 10,000+ stones of grain to open?"

"Otherwise? Even if I know that the granary is empty, can I still predict that it will rain continuously for a month? The road to Beijing will be washed away?"

Yan Mu sat back. Man-made disasters can be predicted, but natural disasters cannot be predicted.

"So you are really here to do business with me?"

"There's nothing else to talk about between us, right?"

Yan Mu nodded, "Okay, I want one hundred thousand stones of food."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "One tael of silver and one stone."

"Where are you robbing?"

"Master Yan, I may not sell it to you, right?"

Before coming here, she really didn't plan to make much money from him, just ten thousand or twenty thousand to run the errands, but now she feels that if she doesn't make money, she won't make it in vain.

Yan Mu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, 10 taels, I'll give it to you."

"I paid back the [-] I lent you before, and I still have [-] left here. We agreed at the beginning."

"You want to settle the accounts with me so clearly?"

"Of course we have to settle the matter." Liu Yunxiang stood up and took a step back. "The past must be put away as well."

After saying that, she turned around and walked out. As soon as she reached the door, Yan Mu pulled her over and pressed her against the wall.

"You! Let me go!" she said angrily.

Yan Mu lowered his head and pressed it against Liu Yunxiang's forehead, "Can you explain it clearly?"

"So what if it's not clear? You still want to pester me, a married woman?"

"Liu Yunxiang!"

"There is someone in this world who looks more like the little golden concubine than me. I'm not irreplaceable, am I?"

Yan Mu stared at Liu Yunxiang, "You are right, I am indeed tired of you."

"Then let go...ugh!"

Yan Mu lowered his head and bit Liu Yunxiang's lips hard, "But if I want to bully you, I'll bully you. Why don't you let that wimp Xie Zian come to settle the score with me!"

Liu Yunxiang smelled the same sweet and greasy jasmine fragrance on Yan Mu's body as on Yuan Qingyue's body, and suddenly felt nauseated. He pushed Yan Mu away and slapped him hard.

"Don't touch me!"

Yan Mu looked at Liu Yunxiang angrily, wishing to strangle her to death, but when he saw her head raised, her eyes red, still stubborn and unwilling to give in, he frowned irritably.

"roll!"

Liu Yunxiang rushed to the door and held on to the pillar outside, his body trembling slightly.

She bent over and shed a tear, but only one.

She gritted her teeth and endured it.

He said: How could I, the dignified minister of Dali Temple, marry a widow like you?

This sentence made her completely heartbroken!

What was not cut off in the previous life is cut off at this moment.

No matter how much she, Liu Yunxiang, loved him, she would not allow herself to be so humble, to be a substitute and just stay together, without status or status, and even be despised.

"Third Madam?"

Liu Yunxiang looked up and saw Zhou Lihuai and Zhenyuan General Zhu Qingjia behind him. He nodded hurriedly and walked out quickly.

Zhou Lihuai scratched his head, "Is this...a quarrel?"

Zhu Qingjia is not like other generals who are tall and thick. He is tall, handsome, and has a gentleman's magnanimous demeanor.

He glanced at Liu Yunxiang's back, frowned, turned around and entered the house.

In the west room, Yan Mu was sitting on the Arhat bed, his head hanging down, and his wet hair covering his face.

Zhu Qingjia took a deep breath and said, "You must immediately cut off your relationship with the third lady of the Hou Mansion."

Yan Mu turned his head and looked at Zhu Qingjia through his wet hair with gloomy eyes, "You want to meddle in my business too?"

"Xie Zian is still alive and has returned to the Marquis' Mansion."

Yan Mu turned around and said, "I know."

"then you……"

"I can't touch the woman he thanked Zian for?"

"Old Seven!"

Yan Mu took a deep breath, "Okay, it's just a woman, I won't ruin anything for her."

After hearing these words, Zhu Qingjia's face improved a little, "The most difficult thing now is to prepare food and wages for the camp in the suburbs of Beijing. Since the emperor has asked you to temporarily take over the post of commander of the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, it is a test for you. This time you If you do it well, you will be able to control the military power in the suburbs of Beijing."

"The food is available."

"Have?"

"One hundred thousand stones."

"Where did so much food come from?"

Yan Mu grabbed a handful of hair and said, "Anyway, I have it. Just go back and tell your adoptive father."

Zhu Qingjia looked happy: "Whoever gave us food has done us a big favor!"

Zhou Lihuai waited for them to finish and couldn't help but ask: "Is Xie Zian really still alive?"

Zhu Qingjia was speechless, "I've seen living people, how can this be false?"

"Then..." Zhou Lihuai glanced at Yan Mu, "What about the child in the third lady's belly? Will he be born and raised in the Marquis' Mansion? Call him Xie Zi'an's father?"
