The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Chapter 209 Confusion, Visiting Mother's Former Residence

With shaking hands, he took out a large stack of banknotes from his pocket. "This is 900,000 taels of silver, half of which are 100,000 taels, and the other half are 50,000 taels."

He turned to his attendant and said, "Go to my study and get the silver notes I got from selling my property yesterday, as well as the silver notes I borrowed from others."

Yun Mujiu gave Chunlan a look, and Chunlan took the banknote from Yun Xiang's hand. She carefully checked the banknote to see if it was real, and counted it once, and Xia He, Qiu Tang, and Dong Yu also checked and counted it several times.

Soon, the attendant came back with an exquisite little wooden box.

Yun Xiang took out a small key and fiddled with it for several times before he finally opened the small wooden box.

He grabbed a handful of banknotes and counted them. "Leave some for Yun Mansion to eat. There are only 10,000 taels of banknotes here."

"The remaining banknotes in the box were collected here and there, in varying amounts, and there are about three hundred thousand taels of banknotes."

"Yes." Yun Mujiu gave the box to Chunlan and the others to check, and he himself checked the stack of silver bills that Yun Xiang had given him first.

After a while, Chunlan replied, "Princess, the first stack of banknotes is indeed 900,000 taels. There are exactly 300,000 taels of banknotes in the box. I and others have already tied up the banknotes according to their denominations."

Yun Mujiu took the box, picked up the bundles of banknotes, and counted them quickly. Then, she put all the banknotes into a small yellow pear wood box she brought from Ye Mansion.

"Yes, I will start the treatment."

The people in the Yun Mansion breathed a sigh of relief. Oh my God! We are finally getting to the point!

Yun Xiang was so heartbroken that he couldn't even smile. "Okay, let's get started."

Yun Mujiu opened the needle bag and this time used both thick and thin needles to pierce the acupuncture points on the patient's face, neck, hands and feet.

After acupuncture treatment on the mother and two children of the Ye family, she followed the same method and took out needles from another needle bag to perform acupuncture on them.

Because there were other servants in the Yun Mansion who needed acupuncture, and the number of gold and silver needles she customized was not enough, she had to use the needles in the doctor's system.

Yun Xiang was frightened when he saw Yun Mujiu working so hard. He seemed to have lost a pearl...

Yun Mujiu gave all the patients acupuncture in one go, and then poured out three pills from the white porcelain vase.

She slashed at the necks of the Ye family and their two children with a knife, and then handed each of them a black pill, saying coldly, "Take it."

The three of them looked at Yun Mujiu and took the medicine obediently.

Yun Mujiu took out two more pills, dissolved them in a large basin of hot water, and then asked the servants of the Yun Mansion to feed a bowl of medicine to the other poisoned servants of the Yun Mansion.

Yun Mujiu said to Yun Xiang: "The servant's illness is not that serious. Just drink some soup made from the dissolved detoxification pills."

Yun Xiang didn't know any medical skills, and when he saw Yun Mujiu's professional appearance, he couldn't find any fault with him.

"Mu Jiu, do you want to do anything else?"

"Wait for half an incense stick of time, observe the patient's reaction, and then provide follow-up treatment."

Yun Xiang nodded solemnly.

Yun Mujiu glanced at the patient's sleepy reaction and said, "Father, while the patient is resting, I want to take a walk. I haven't been back for a long time."

Yun Xiang thought Yun Mujiu missed the place where he lived before, so he asked casually, "Sure. Where do you want to go?"

"I remember that the yard next to this one is the one where my mother lived, right?"

"Yes. What are you doing there?"

"Stroll around." Yun Mujiu pointed at Qiu Tang, Dong Yu, and two guards, "Follow me. The rest of you stay here and report to me if anything happens."

Yun Xiang glanced at the people in the Yun Mansion, then at Yun Mujiu, "How about your father go with you?" He was still thinking about finding a time to have a good chat with Yun Mujiu and find out the news of the Ye Mansion.

Yun Mujiu's face was calm, "No, Yun Shirou and the others need you to accompany them."

"Okay." Yun Xiang compromised and instructed the two maids to follow Yun Mujiu away.

Yun Mujiu did not refuse and walked away.

Led by the maid of the Yun Mansion, Yun Mujiu and others walked for a while and came to a large courtyard.

A tall stone gate appeared before my eyes, with three majestic words carved on it: Qinxin Garden. The wall of the courtyard was mottled, showing traces of the ravages of time.

After Meng died of dystocia, Qinxin Garden was closed and no one set foot in it again. The once lively and bustling courtyard became a deserted and dead courtyard with silence.

Yun Mujiu suddenly felt heavy-hearted. She had never been to Qinxin Garden before. This was where Meng lived before her death!

Yun Mujiu stepped into the courtyard and found it empty.

With the arrival of spring, weeds sprouted everywhere in Qinxin Garden, and even a few weeds grew in the cracks of the dilapidated rockery.

Yun Mujiu turned sideways and asked a little maid: "Which main room does my mother live in?"

The maid pointed to a room and leaned over: "My Lady Princess, Madam Meng lives in the middle room."

Meng Wanzhou was Yun Xiang's legal wife during her lifetime, and she retained her status after her death, and Yun Mujiu was still his legitimate daughter. So it was reasonable for the maid to call Meng "Madam".

Yun Mujiu nodded and walked over quickly.

When she reached the main house, she didn't rush in. She paused, "You guys wait here, I'll go in and take a look."

The two maids in the Yun Mansion were a little anxious, "Princess, let us accompany you in..."

Qiu Tang shouted angrily: "It is not your turn to interrupt and give instructions when the princess is doing something!"

The two maids shrank their heads and said, "We dare not."

Yun Mujiu said: "I'll just take a look, and my father won't have any objections."

The maids thought that Qinxin Garden had been cleaned up by Yun Xiang a long time ago, so there would be no traces left. Yun Mujiu should not be able to do anything.

Besides, they were just servants, how could they stop anyone? A maid said hurriedly: "Okay, Princess. We will wait for you outside the house."

Yun Mujiu pushed with both hands.

"Squeak... squeak..." The door hinges turned slowly, and the two doors were pushed open by her, and a cloud of dust blew in her face.

She calmed herself down, walked into the house, and closed the door.

There was nothing new in the interior decoration of the house. There were only some large pieces of furniture left, and no other decorative objects, not even a flower pot or a set of tea sets.

What does Yun Xiang mean? Meng died during childbirth, so Yun Xiang wants to clean up all traces of her existence...

It stands to reason that people who have loved each other would not do this. Mrs. Meng ignored the Meng family's obstruction and insisted on marrying Yun Xiang. Yun Xiang also actively responded to Mrs. Meng and did everything for her.

If he truly loved her, would Yun Xiang really change his attitude drastically after Meng's death, bringing Ye into the family and despising and abusing his original wife's children?

Yun Mujiu's mind was filled with confusion, and he couldn't figure out many problems for a while.
