Yu Menghua frowned, "My mother was saved by a wooden sign made of a fragrant spirit tree when she was a child. After my grandfather personally investigated, he confirmed that there was a fragrant spirit tree in the Western Zhou Dynasty..."

“It seems that after dealing with the affairs of the Qu family, this old man will have to go to Western Zhou…” Patriarch Yun did not say whether he believed it or not, but his expression became more solemn.

Dong Linyue and others: Why do I feel like I am listening to nothing? I am just confused and bewildered.

Obviously they couldn't understand and no one would explain it to them, so the topic of the fragrant spirit tree finally ended, but their disgust for the Qu family reached a new level.

The Donglin Kingdom issue has not been resolved, the Nanchu Kingdom has risen again, and now there is the mysterious Xizhou Kingdom. I wonder if it has also been poisoned by the Hidden Clan Qu Family...

Yu Menghua sighed silently. The scumbag was dumped and the fake sister was also killed, but why did it feel like things were even more out of control?

Half a month later, a middle-aged couple with ordinary looks came to the capital of Donglin Kingdom with two servants and a maid.

"Ayin, do you think Miss Yue has returned home?" Yu Menghua asked casually while standing next to a jewelry stall on the street, holding a delicate silver hairpin in her hand.

Feng Chengyin took the silver hairpin from her hand and inserted it into her cascading black hair, and said tenderly, "It looks good."

"I guess she entered the capital earlier than us, so she should have gone home by now."

Yu Menghua reached out and touched the hairpin on her head, her eyebrows curved as she said, "I don't know how she's prepared."

Feng Chengyin took her hand at ease, gave the stall owner some silver, and the two left the stall. "Let's find an inn to stay first. Madam must be exhausted from traveling on the road these days."

Yu Menghua blushed and muttered softly, "How can I be that weak..."

"Yes, yes, yes. I, your husband, feel sorry for you." The corners of Feng Chengyin's lips curled up, and he was obviously in a very good mood.

The two chatted idly along the way, and Feng Chengyin would buy anything that Yu Menghua took a closer look at, whether it was food, drink, clothing, or interesting gadgets.

The vendors on the street all felt that they might have had good luck today. They must have met a rich man who didn't even ask the price and just gave them money.

Of course, it would be even better if these street vendors didn't have to go through the trouble of exchanging small change for change. Alas, although these two guests are rich, how can they not be stupid!

Feng Chengyin and Yu Menghua had no idea that the vendors they passed by along the way were looking at them with envy and regret.

What I envy is that these two people are so rich. Although these small things are not too expensive individually, who has ever seen customers buy them all the way from the main street of the capital to the city center? !

Those people calculated the cost for them. According to their purchase method, they would probably spend hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver. After all, the servants of the two of them had already hired a third carriage to transport the goods...

You have to know that for ordinary people, one tael of silver can support a family for three months, but these rich people did not buy necessities and spent hundreds or thousands of taels at once.

It's impossible not to envy. Some vendors with bad hearts are jealous in their hearts and even think that this kind of naive person who has money but doesn't know how to hide his wealth deserves to be robbed.

As for those vendors who felt regretful, it was purely because these two people bought too little at their stalls. If they bought more items or just bought everything, they would not starve to death even if they didn't set up their stalls for a year.

It's a pity that people only buy what they like. How can these people not sigh and regret? They finally meet such stupid and rich people.

Yes, in their eyes, Yu Menghua and Feng Chengyin are just stupid people with a lot of money.

How could rich people from good families be like them and buy up even the cheapest candied haws?

There were only five of us in the group, so we asked them if they could finish the meal?!

So they secretly hated them even more because they would rather buy all the candied haws than their stuff?

No matter how you look at it, the things on their stalls are better than candied haws. Even if you don’t use them, you can still keep them…

Yu Menghua and Feng Chengyin, holding hands, had no idea how much shadow their "arrogance" along the way had left on the merchants in Donglin Capital. If Yu Menghua knew, her mouth would definitely twitch, and then she would say to Feng Chengyin with a resentful look: Look at the good thing you are seeing, you are just a fool with a lot of money!

A group of five people and three carriages of stuff checked into the best restaurant in the capital, Fenglai Pavilion.

The shopkeeper was a discerning man. He led the few people to a separate courtyard in the backyard with a smile. Looking at the quiet and elegant courtyard in front of him, Feng Chengyin was very satisfied.

Yingzhou was not stingy with the shopkeeper's look. He rewarded the shopkeeper with an ingot of silver, told him to have someone prepare bath water and food, and then let him leave.

"Hua'er, you must be tired after the long journey." Feng Chengyin personally brewed a cup of tea for Yu Menghua and handed it to her, with distress in his eyes.

Yu Menghua shook her head slightly, "It's okay, just a little rushed."

What Yu Menghua said was indeed the truth. She was tired, but not to the point where she couldn't bear it.

They acted separately from Dong Linyue along the way. Although they didn't know how Dong Linyue would return to the capital and then enter the palace, Dong Linyue told them before leaving to wait for her news after arriving in the capital, and she would send someone to find them.

Moreover, before they separated, the few people had planned to take the enemy by surprise after arriving in the capital, so Patriarch Yun followed Dong Linyue and his group.

As for why the two of them were sure that Dong Linyue arrived earlier than them, it was because when they entered the city, someone slipped a note into their hands. There was no need to ask, the person must be Dong Linyue's man.

There was only one word "wait" on the note.

The two of them realized that Dong Linyue had probably used some unknown method to enter the palace by now, so the plan should have begun...

"Tuk tuk tuk..."

"Come in."

Two people followed the waiter in with hot water. "Sir, the hot water you requested is here. May I ask if the food should be delivered to the courtyard or would you like to go to the front?"

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Just in the lobby."

"Okay!" The waiter bowed to the two of them, "Then I won't bother you anymore. I'll have someone prepare the food. You can go to the lobby directly after you've rested."

"Well, back off."

"Yes, yes, I'll take my leave..."

"..."

The reason why the two chose to have dinner in the lobby was naturally because they wanted to find out some things about the capital of Donglin Kingdom. They had just arrived, and although Donglin Yue, the Donglin Princess, was with them, it was better to keep some information in their own hands.

It is said that it is better to rely on oneself than on others...
