There were impeachments against the General of Cavalry for having trouble in his harem, and there were impeachments against the Vice Minister of Works for having a corrupt family tradition. They wrote long articles just about these trivial matters.

Instead of paying attention to people's livelihood, they spend all day paying attention to which woman is making trouble in the harem and which young man is entering a brothel. Mu Yunchen is somewhat suspicious that the Censorate should be impeached.

"So, Your Highness would like to invite Princess Qingning to enjoy the lanterns together?" Bi Qi looked at Mu Yunchen, who had a serious and focused face, and couldn't help but ask tentatively.

Unexpectedly, Mu Yunchen didn't understand and asked, "Why?"

Bi Qi almost fainted. Forget it. The master is busy with all kinds of affairs and certainly doesn't know this folk custom.

"Your Highness, you may not know that the Qixi Festival is one of the most distinctive festivals among the people. It is also known as the Qiqiao Festival and the Daughter's Day. It is endowed with the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Only on this day can men and women get together to enjoy the lanterns without being discussed by others..."

Bi Qi kept explaining to Mu Yunchen what he heard from Zi Yi, but Mu Yunchen obviously misheard the main point.

"She is my future Crown Princess. I want to date her. Who dares to talk about her?"

Bi Qi: ...So it was all in vain, right?

"Then Your Highness——"

"Besides appreciating the lanterns, is there anything else to do?" Mu Yunchen said, putting down the writing in his hand, picking up the teacup and taking a sip, then looked at Bi Qi and asked.

"An...oh...yes, yes, yes." Bi Qi didn't react at all, and hurriedly continued: "You can also visit the garden, guess lantern riddles, recite poems, play the zither and sing songs. If you are invited by someone you like, you can give a gift."

"Boring, you are just bored and come to talk to me about this, has no one come to Bi Ming Tang to do business recently?"

Bi Qi shut up instantly.

After a long while, Mu Yunchen said, "Tomorrow, please ask the head of the clothing department to come to the prince's residence and measure me again so that I can make a few sets of private clothes."

Bi Qi couldn't control her mouth. When she saw Mu Yunchen talking, she agreed but couldn't help asking, "Your Highness, why do you suddenly want to make private clothes?"

"What, you want to do it too?" Mu Yunchen's words choked Bi Qi again. It was really strange. The dark guard camp was full of taciturn people, but there was such a chatterbox.

Bi Qi: I have enough clothes to wear, enough to last a lifetime.

On the second day, the people from the Clothing Bureau really came to measure Mu Yunchen's size and brought a large amount of cloth for Mu Yunchen to choose from. After he made his choice, Mu Yunchen took Bi Qi to Yao Zhixue.

However, in the past, when he went to Yao Zhixue, he either wore a mask or went at night. This was the first time that he went there in the daytime with his entourage in a swaggering manner.

While Zi Yi was still greeting customers, she heard the voice, turned her head and saw Mu Yunchen entering the store, and was suddenly at a loss as to what to do.

Glancing at Bi Qi behind Mu Yunchen, Bi Qi also shook his head. This master didn't say what mission he had recently, and he came to Yao Zhixue in person without any warning, even without any disguise.

Zi Yi suddenly felt a buzzing in her ears and felt uneasy. Could it be that the master had looked at the accounts and found that Yao Zhixue's income had decreased recently, so he came to inspect?

But the reason for the low revenue was that the nobleman that Seventeenth Brother mentioned came to get rouge several times. She was asked by Seventeenth Brother not to raise the price but only gave the original price, which led to the low revenue.

While thinking about how to defend myself, I heard Mu Yunchen shouting, "Where is the shopkeeper?"

Zi Yi was confused. Could it be that he didn't come here for this? Not knowing why, she could only cooperate and said, "Here, here it is."

"Are there any new jewelry items in the store recently?" Mu Yunchen glanced at the store and thought that it was time to expand it. Some of the customers had no seats when they came.

"Ah?" Zi Yi was confused and had to ask Bi Qi for help.

"I'm asking you if you have any new jewelry."

"Oh, yes, yes, please wait a moment, sir." Zi Yi turned around and went upstairs. When she came back, she had a box in her hand.

"Sir, this pair of hairpins is a new product of our store. We only have this pair and they have not been put on sale yet. Look at the jade and the craftsmanship..."

"This is it." The first time Mu Yunchen saw the hairpin, the image of Mu Peiyun wearing it and walking towards him gracefully appeared in his mind, swaying in her graceful manner, like a graceful lady.

"What?" Zi Yi was still confused. What did the master mean by this? There was no mission, and he was not here for inspection. Could it be that he really came to buy things?

Bi Qi: How could he teach such a stupid thing?

"My master asked you to pack it up, how much silver?"

Zi Yi came back to her senses, nodded repeatedly, and held up five fingers, saying: "One hundred taels."

The corners of Bi Qi's mouth could not help but twitch. Yao Zhixue had always been taken care of by Bi Shiqi and Zi Yi. She didn't expect that the things here were so expensive!

Mu Yunchen raised his chin slightly, turned around and left. Bi Qi stepped forward to give him some silver, then took his things and followed him.

Zi Yi: Master, what are you doing? Spending your own money to buy your own things?

The smooth flow of the business made the guest who had been reluctant to pay the bill finally pay the bill generously, take his things and leave, saving Zi Yi a lot of trouble.

"Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent a letter." Su Jiu ran in happily and handed the letter to Mu Peiyun eagerly.

Mu Peiyun was a little surprised. She and Mu Yunchen hadn't seen each other for quite some time. They were going to get married in a month, so why would he send her an invitation at this time?

Thinking about it, Mu Peiyun picked up the post on the table and opened it. After reading it carefully, he understood.

"Chinese Valentine's Day?"

He actually invited her to go to the Moon Pavilion to enjoy the lanterns on the Qixi Festival? Did he know the meaning of inviting her to go out together on the Qixi Festival?

"Give me my ten cents quickly." Su Niang stretched out his hand to Su Jiu for money.

"I'll give it to you." Sujiu reluctantly took out a string of copper coins from his pocket and put them in Suniang's hand.

This time it was Mu Peiyun's turn to be confused: "What are you doing?"

Su Niang got the upper hand and quickly replied: "Miss, I made a bet with Su Jiu that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would invite you to celebrate the Qixi Festival together."

Hearing this, Mu Peiyun pretended to be angry: "You two little girls, how dare you make fun of your master? I have been too indulgent to you on weekdays."

But how could she be angry when she was holding Mu Yunchen's post in her hand? She couldn't suppress the joy in her heart.

That day she found out that it was he who went to see the emperor, which led to her father bringing Lord Pei to the mansion in time, and also caused him to be punished by the emperor, but she didn't even have the time to thank him.

Just by chance, this opportunity came along.

"No, we are happy for the young lady." Sujiu and Suniang stood aside together. The corners of their young lady's mouth had not been curved since she received the post.

Sujiu: "Miss, do you want to reply?"

Mu Peiyun smiled, and Mu Yunchen's eyes and eyebrows appeared in her mind. She imitated his tone and said, "Go get some paper and pen."

"Yes, miss." Sujiu bowed and ran to the study.

As maids, their masters treat them so well, and they also hope that their masters will be happy and contented.
