Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 542

"This is normal. It would be abnormal not to embezzle."

"I might embezzle money too," Yun Xiyue said with a smile.

Murong Yu understood some of the unwritten rules, and it was impossible to avoid them. However, Pei Fang couldn't take it herself and then criticize others.

This kind of behavior is shameful.

"Well, let's not talk about it. It gives me a headache just thinking about it."

"There's also the matter of the stolen weapon blueprints. After a thorough investigation, it turns out to be quite complicated and difficult to handle!"

Yun Xiyue rubbed his temples, without asking any questions or even mentioning Shen Yue.

He felt so comfortable that he wanted to snuggle in her arms and sleep, "A-Yue..."

Yun Xiyue realized he was really asleep, so she called someone in to help him to bed.

"Your Majesty, you are truly exhausted." Granny Chen felt sorry for you.

"I haven't had a proper rest."

Yun Xiyue said, "I will make sure he eats and sleeps normally from now on."

"Then you'll have to do it," said Granny Chen with a smile. "The Emperor only listens to the Empress."

......

After learning that Bai Jian had come to Great Xia, Madam Yun began to worry.

"Han'er, prepare some medicine and send it to the hostage residence! Do it secretly, so no one finds out."

Yun Xiaohan said, "Yes, Mother, don't worry, I've already made all the arrangements. Bai Jian was injured, but he's out of danger now. He was sent to Daxia this time because there was no other way."

The Bai family is, after all, a family from the Northern Palace Kingdom.

Sikong Xuanche valued him quite a bit, which is why he entrusted his younger sister to Bai Jian. Bai Jian was an inner disciple who was pursuing an official career, not a business.

Only a portion of the Bai family members who were engaged in business would have contact with the Yun family.

They also wanted to keep the children of officials and the children of merchants as separate as possible.

Don't want people to know.

This is their method of preserving their foundation over the years.

On the surface, they have no connection, but in private they are closely linked and their interests are inseparable.

Let's make money together, and secretly work together to overcome difficulties.

"I'm worried that if Bai Jian approaches Yue'er, someone will have something to hold against her."

"Tell him not to look for Yue'er, and to contact us if he has any difficulties. Saving his life is no problem, but on matters of principle and right and wrong, our Yun family stands with Great Xia," said Madam Yun.

The Yun family will not interfere with whichever royal family the Bai family chooses to serve.

They are simply involved in business interests.

They do not concern themselves with matters of the imperial court.

Yun Xiaohan nodded. "I will make the arrangements."

"Hmm." Looking at her son, who had performed exceptionally well today, Madam Yun was very pleased and smiled, "Han'er, you and Ling'er should have a child too."

"Mother, I will consider it, but there is one thing I need to figure out first."

Madam Yun asked curiously, "What is it?"

Only Yunnan Sheng knew about Yun Xiaohan's background.

I didn't explain it in detail to Madam Yun.

So he didn't know that his background was related to the Xiao family.

"We'll talk about it when Dad gets back."

......

"She failed? The Emperor sent someone to rescue her?"

"How did His Majesty find out about this so quickly?"

Zeng Rou glared at the guard with displeasure.

The guard said, "I heard that it was one of her personal guards who secretly approached the Empress."

Zeng Rou narrowed her eyes slightly, "They met?"

At the celebration banquet, she discovered that Bai Jian and Yun Xiyue had a problem.

"No."

Zeng Rou snorted, "Send someone to keep an eye on him and find a way to teach that woman a lesson."

However, it was not easy, because Sikong Xuanling had four people around him who all knew martial arts. Bai Jian was a strategist whose martial arts were slightly inferior, but he was extremely intelligent. Everyone in the hostage residence, including the princess, had to listen to him.
