Ye Chen followed Yu Niang into an attic, which was built in the center of the village. It was obviously built not long ago and was made entirely of wood.

No other building in the village can compare with it.

"Your Majesty, my boss is up there."

When there was no one else around, Yu Niang's attitude suddenly became much more respectful.

After all, Ye Chen is the emperor, and Yu Niang is still a little restrained around Ye Chen.

"Yu Niang, have you missed me these days?"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, but suddenly took the initiative to hold Yu Niang's hand and asked.

"what?"

Yu Niang was startled for a moment, then her eyes were as charming as silk. While struggling slightly, she said, "Your Majesty, I am busy helping the boss and have no time to think about other things."

"Oh."

Ye Chen felt the pulling sensation on his hand, smiled slightly, and let go of his hand.

"But Yu Niang, I miss you so much."

"Ok?"

Yu Niang blinked, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise up.

"Your Majesty, if you miss me so much, and the concubines in your palace get jealous and angry at me, Your Majesty must protect me."

Yu Niang smiled sweetly and had a charming look on her face. Having dealt with Ye Chen a lot, she knew that Ye Chen liked to talk nonsense, but she also often hung out in places of entertainment in the past, so she could respond with words that came to her mind easily.

"Haha, Yu Niang, if you are willing to enter my palace, I will never let the concubines harm you!"

Ye Chen said in a gentle tone.

When she heard his words, the smile on Yu Niang's face suddenly froze, and a blush quickly appeared on her charming face.

But her cheeks were flushed and she bit her lip, feeling her heart beating like a deer and shy. Her pace quickened and she reached the top floor of the attic in a few steps, then pushed open the door of a room.

"Your Majesty, my boss is inside."

Yu Niang lowered her head and said respectfully.

Ye Chen nodded and strode into the room.

Then he saw Murong Yan.

Murong Yan, dressed in purple brocade, sat upright in the lobby. Her noble and domineering temperament showed her peerless grace at every moment.

Several dishes were already placed in front of Murong Yan.

Ye Chen sat directly opposite Murong Yan.

"Yan'er, you also know why I came here to find you, right?"

Hearing this, Murong Yan smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, if you want to know the situation of those unidentified people wandering outside the villages, I have asked people to collect some information."

Murong Yan picked up a few sheets of rice paper.

Murong Yan has already asked someone to investigate the number and even the origins of those unidentified people wandering around several villages.

Although the origin investigation may not be accurate, in terms of quantity, Murong Yan has mobilized all her subordinates and tried her best to investigate.

"Yan'er, do you know what I want this list for?"

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. He looked at the smart woman in front of him, and felt as if he had found a confidant.

For some things, he didn't even need to ask first, Murong Yan had already done it for him.

This is a woman who can connect with him.

"Your Majesty, if you can eliminate all the spies and informants that the powerful officials have placed outside, the promotion of the newspaper will naturally be unimpeded in the future."

Murong Yan smiled slightly and said.

"Oh, Yan'er, since you know that I will take action against the spies of these powerful officials outside the city, then you should know that you cannot stay out of it."

Ye Chen looked into Murong Yan's eyes and said so.

Hearing this, Murong Yan took out a few more pieces of paper.

"Your Majesty, all the people I can mobilize are here. They will only obey my orders, but if Your Majesty wants to use them, I will fully cooperate."

Seeing this, Ye Chen pursed his lips.

Murong Yan is too smart. If a woman like this becomes his enemy, he will not be able to sleep.

It would be great if Murong Yan could be brought back to the palace to help him, but Murong Yan would definitely not agree.

If you use force, it might backfire.

Ye Chen also doesn't like to force women.

Moreover, as long as such a smart woman is under his control, Ye Chen prefers to try to control her as a strong man.

That's the sense of conquest.

"Yan'er, I'll take all these back with me. When we kill those powerful officials and their spies in the future, I'll tell you what to do."

Ye Chen finally accepted the two lists and said.

"Yes."

Murong Yan bowed her head respectfully and said.

"Yan'er, I'm hungry too. Please come and serve me dinner."

Ye Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said.

Hearing this, Shen Qiu frowned and looked at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen ignored Shen Qiu's gaze.

Murong Yan frowned slightly, bit her lip, and finally said, "Yes."

She immediately stood up and was about to pour wine and serve food to Ye Chen.

"and many more!"

Shen Qiu stepped forward first and took out her silver hairpin. She would test the poison on every dish on Ye Chen first.

Seeing this, Murong Yan frowned slightly, feeling that she was not trusted and felt a little dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, my boss has never served anyone before, and I'm afraid he won't be able to take good care of you. I'll help him serve you."

At this moment, Yu Niang came up and took the dish and asked Shen Qiu to test the poison.

Murong Yan cast a grateful look at Yu Niang, then picked up the wine pot and was about to pour wine for Ye Chen, but just after pouring a glass of wine, Ye Chen suddenly pressed down the glass.

"Yan'er, I've already eaten."

Ye Chen stood up and held Murong Yan's hands. He said in a gentle yet domineering tone, "Yan'er, you are now my woman. No matter what happens in the future, I will always be your support."

Upon hearing this, Murong Yan's delicate body trembled.

As a woman, no matter how smart and strong you are, you still hope to have someone to rely on.

Ye Chen had saved her before and had been in contact with her through correspondence.

Now he says he wants to be her supporter.

This made her heart beat wildly, and a blush appeared on her beautiful face.

"gone."

Ye Chen squeezed her gently with his hand, feeling the touch of the smooth skin, then let go and turned away.

He asked Murong Yan to serve him just to show his attitude to Murong Yan.

And let Murong Yan understand who is supporting her now.

Seeing Ye Chen was about to leave, Murong Yan was slightly stunned. She chased him out the door, but looking at Ye Chen's receding back, her eyes gradually became a little dazed.
