Chapter 1818

He put forward three conditions: first, he wanted to live in the best room on the ship; second, he could do whatever he wanted and the princess could not restrict him; third, no one was allowed to hang around him on weekdays.

Zhuo Qiran reported these three conditions to the princess and only after getting her approval did he lead Ye Xun on board.

This was the first time Wang Jinglun met Ye Xun. In the past, he had only heard from his uncle that this man was a mysterious person who was hard to find.

When that gaze came over, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and hurriedly bowed, calling out, "Master."

Ye Xun didn't even glance at him, and walked straight past him, leaving only a faint scent of herbs.

Bei Hui bowed and led the way to the most spacious cabin. When Ye Xun pushed the door open, he saw a rosewood desk next to the window, complete with the four treasures of the study.

In the corner, a bronze incense burner was emitting smoke. The brocade quilt on the bed had been replaced with a plain cloud-patterned silk. On the coffee table was a set of celadon tea sets, and a small stove next to it was boiling mountain spring water.

Ye Xun looked around and tapped the table with his fingertips. "It's OK."

Bei Hui was a person who had seen the world, but she didn't dare to look directly at this mysterious person. After returning, her heart was pounding, "Madam, I was scared to death. That person is not easy to approach."

"What? He eats people?" Shi Anxia held Er Er in her arms and coaxed her daughter to play with the wet nurse beside her.

Bei Hui couldn't put it into words. "It's quite oppressive anyway. He's so tall, feels taller than..." She wanted to say that he felt taller than the young master, but when the words came to her lips, she changed the subject and said, "I don't think meeting the retired emperor is this scary."

Shi Anxia smiled and said, "I'll go visit him in a few days."

"He should be the one coming to pay his respects to the princess." Bei Hui said dissatisfiedly.

Shi Anxia said, "In this world, capable people never bow their heads or bend their backs. If we ask him to do something for us, we will be inferior to him."

Bei Hui said yes, "Master Zhuo has been talking to him for half a day and hasn't come out yet. I guess the master and disciple have a lot to talk about."

Shi Anxia frowned and thought for a moment, "Bei Hui, go ask my aunt to come over."

Not long after, Yu Sujun came, dressed in plain clothes, neat and tidy, "Xia'er, you looking for me?"

Shi Anxia asked, "Does my aunt have any extra servants to lend me? I want one that's careful and reliable."

Yu Sujun hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, there is, but he is a little stronger."

"That's okay. Lend it to me first, and I'll double his monthly salary. I'll make sure you serve him better."

"Who are you serving?" Yu Sujun was puzzled.

"Master Zhuo's master, Mr. Ye Xun."

Yu Sujun asked someone to call in Wang Zhong, a servant who was in charge of the outer courtyard affairs all year round, and told him to take care of Mr. Ye Xun's food, clothing, housing and transportation in the future.

Wang Zhongying said so.

Shi Anxia asked him some questions, and seeing that he was kind and honest, she nodded and explained some details.

He also asked Zhuo Qiran to report to Ye Xun first and sent a servant to serve him.

Mr. Ye Xun did not refuse.

Wang Zhong served Ye Xun for three days and came back to report, saying, "Mr. Ye Xun is easy to get along with."

The so-called getting along well means not getting along well.

She doesn't want anyone to serve her at all, so of course she's easy to get along with.

Shi Anxia prepared a gift and sent Bei Hui to deliver it, but it was rejected by Mr. Ye Xun.

Bei Hui said, "See, I told you, he is just difficult to get along with, a weirdo."
