Liu Yueru said with a gleam in her eyes, "It's not expensive. After all, things are valuable because they are rare. No matter what the restaurant owners say, the price of this dish cannot be reduced."

Liu Yueru's eyes fell on Uncle Fu's troubled face, and then explained: "Any meat dish in those restaurants in Kyoto costs dozens of taels of silver. Restaurants are originally places for nobles to support the occasion. Besides, I have inquired about those restaurants in Kyoto and they have not had any new dishes for a long time. Nowadays, all the prices of dishes have risen. We only charge ten taels of silver per plate, which is already a good deal."

After hearing what Liu Yueru said, Uncle Fu seemed to be able to accept the price of ten taels of silver for a plate of locusts.

He nodded and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I will do it right away."

After Uncle Fu left the cloth shop, Ye Tao followed him to the cloth shop.

After seeing Liu Yueru, she knelt down in front of Liu Yueru with red eyes.

Liu Yueru looked at Ye Tao's rosy face and thought that Zhang Liang was very good to her. She was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

She stepped forward and helped Ye Tao up from the ground, then took her handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from Ye Tao's face.

"My lady, it's all Ye Tao's fault. I got married when you needed someone the most, and you still gave me so much dowry." Ye Tao couldn't stop her tears from falling as she spoke.

Looking at Liu Yueru, she suddenly thought of something. She pulled Liu Yueru up and down to look her up and down, and said with anxious concern in her voice: "I heard that the lady was poisoned, and the King of Jin was bewitched by a woman from Northern Frontier and wanted to marry someone else. Later, I heard that the Liu Mansion was in collusion with Northern Frontier, and the whole mansion was under house arrest. I really want to see the lady, but the gatekeeper despises my low status and won't let me in."

Ye Tao became more and more worried as she spoke, and she fiddled with Liu Yueru and checked on her over and over again.

Liu Yueru listened to the lively sounds around her and her nose suddenly felt sore.

Ye Tao grew up with her since childhood. During this period of time, without Ye Tao's noisy voice around her, she always felt empty in her heart.

Now, seeing Ye Tao again, Liu Yueru realized that Ye Tao had already become a part of her life.

Upon seeing this, Mother Yan hurried forward and pulled Ye Tao away from Liu Yueru. "Okay, my wife has just recovered a little and can't stand your shaking like this. Now my wife and the Liu family are fine, don't worry."

Ye Tao met Liu Yueru's red eyes and realized that she had said too much. She quickly raised her hand and pulled her sleeve to wipe the tears from her face, then smiled at Liu Yueru.

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

Liu Yueru pulled Ye Tao to sit on the side and asked jokingly, "After marriage, is Zhang Liang good to you?"

Speaking of Zhang Liang, Ye Tao put away her carefree personality, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, she lowered her head a little embarrassedly, and said softly: "It's fine, he takes good care of me at home."

Ye Tao's voice became lower and lower.

Seeing that her ears were red and almost bleeding, Liu Yueru smiled even more deeply; "That's good, our Ye Tao will have someone to rely on in the future."

"Oh, my lady, you tease me as soon as I get here." Ye Tao buried her head embarrassedly.

Then, I thought of something else.

Ye Tao took Liu Yueru's hand and asked with concern: "Madam, what's going on between you and the prince? Aren't you... Why did the prince suddenly marry a woman from Northern Xinjiang at that time? Why did he say that the woman from Northern Xinjiang was in trouble and died suddenly during the wedding ceremony?"

Liu Yueru was obviously stunned after hearing this. She didn't expect Xie Jingrui to announce it like this.

Liu Yueru looked at Mother Yan standing aside.

Mother Yan understood, stood up and walked towards the door. After checking that there was no one outside, she closed the door.

After doing all this, Mother Yan explained in a low voice: "The prince did this to save my wife. The woman from Northern Frontier was Liu Yunni in disguise. She was just wearing someone else's skin and deliberately wanted to separate the prince and my wife."

"She also told the prince that she would give the antidote to my wife after they had their wedding night. My wife faked her own death in order to prevent the prince from doing anything stupid. That's why Liu Yunni handed over the antidote in advance."

The more Mother Yan spoke, the angrier she became about Liu Yunni's behavior.

Ye Tao held Liu Yueru's hand even tighter. She didn't expect so many things to happen during the time when she was not with Liu Yueru.

"But fortunately, everything is safe and sound, and the matter has been resolved satisfactorily."

Mother Yan shook her head gently and warned, "Kyoto is not peaceful nowadays. You should stay at home and don't go out after dark."

Ye Tao grinned, "Don't worry, Mama Yan, no one wants a wild girl like me."

"Bah, bah, what are you talking about." Mother Yan glared at Ye Tao with a look of disappointment on her face.

Speaking of danger, Ye Tao said mysteriously: "During the time when Liu Mansion was under house arrest, a major event occurred."

"What's the matter?" Liu Yueru asked curiously.

Ye Tao reluctantly lowered her voice and said, "It's about Wanfu Temple."

"Hurry up and tell me." Mother Yan also urged.

"Weren't there many children aged seven or eight sent to Wanfu Temple at the beginning of the year? A few days ago, the parents of those children went to Wanfu Temple to look for their children. They searched the temple but could not find any trace of the children. Many people gathered at Wanfu Temple and refused to leave, saying that they wanted to take their children back. The people in Wanfu Temple could not hand over the children."

"In the end, I don't know how, the abbot of Wanfu Temple was beaten up, and one of the civilians accidentally beat the abbot to death." Ye Tao couldn't help but cover her mouth while speaking.

Liu Yueru's eyebrows were slightly frowned.

She had also met the abbot of Wanfuji Temple several times. He looked kind and didn't seem like the mastermind.

"Where are the people?" Liu Yueru asked first.

Ye Tao sighed softly, "Those people are pitiful. After the abbot was accidentally beaten to death, those people were arrested and thrown into jail. This calmed the situation down a little. But what did those people do wrong? They just wanted to find their children back."

Liu Yueru asked curiously, "Didn't the government tell us how to deal with this matter? And how did Wanfu Temple explain it to everyone?"

Hearing this, Ye Tao stood up from her seat in a hurry, angrily saying, "Those people in Wanfu Temple are really shameful. They said that they have never taken in any children, and they don't know who framed them in this matter. They also said that Wanfu Temple usually persuades people to be kind, and it is an important place for Buddhism. Those people beat their abbot to death in a holy place for Buddhism, and they must make those people pay with their lives. Wanfu Temple also said that those people listened to the instigation of the people in Liu Mansion and went to Wanfu Temple to make trouble. I hope the government can clear Wanfu Temple's name."
