The Emperor, with more men than women, made me his mistress.

Chapter 60: Covering one’s ears and stealing the bell

But today, wasn't it the master accompanying the princess to the storeroom? So these subordinates didn't bother to follow their master's lead anymore, and in order to be able to hear their master's instructions in time, they opened the storeroom door wide.

But to his surprise, he vaguely heard some obviously strange noises. Fearing that the simpleton next to him might hear him making a fuss, he quickly closed the warehouse door.

He knows without even thinking what his masters are doing inside.

Youyun rolled her eyes at Huanyun, who was still rambling on, and continued to calmly guard the door.

Seeing You Yun's calm demeanor, Huan Yun objected, "Tell me, did you deliberately close the storeroom door? Did you intentionally try to disrespect your master?"

As soon as Huanyun finished speaking, the warehouse door was opened from the inside.

"What's all the noise about?" Jin Chenyuan's voice came from behind.

The two then saw their master carrying the princess out of the storeroom. The princess's face was buried in the master's chest, and she looked as if she were asleep.

Having some knowledge of what had just happened in the warehouse, You Yun could guess what was going on.

However, Huan Yun, who knew nothing about this, wondered how the princess could fall asleep in the storeroom.

However, both of them subconsciously lowered their voices and replied, "It's nothing, I was just joking."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and then lowered their heads together.

Ignoring the exchange between the two, Jin Chenyuan directly ordered, "Yes, go and take those boxes from the long table inside to my room."

"Yes, Master." Huan Yun, who had been the most vocal earlier, now only wanted to show off. Hearing his master's order, he immediately agreed. After his master left, he glared at You Yun, who was following behind him, and then went into the storeroom.

Meanwhile, Yue Li, whom Jin Chenyuan was holding, was not asleep. She was just too embarrassed to come out of the storeroom again, so she let Jin Chenyuan carry her out. She could only hide her face in Jin Chenyuan's arms, trying to deceive herself.

However, such weather is inherently drowsy and is the best time for a nap. Yue Li, who hadn't rested well the night before, was exhausted after this ordeal. Gradually, with Jin Chenyuan's rhythmic swaying as he walked, she actually fell asleep in his arms.

Hearing the gradually calming breathing in his arms, Jin Chenyuan's steps became even more steady.

She showed no signs of waking up until they reached his room through the corridor and placed Yue Li on the bed.

Seeing Yue Li fast asleep, Jin Chenyuan gave up the idea of ​​bathing her. Since Yue Li was sleeping so soundly, it was better to wait until she woke up.

He carefully removed the hairpins and ornaments from Yue Li's head, then took off her outer skirt, leaving her only in her inner garment. He then draped the thin blanket on Yue Li's stomach, lowered the bed curtains, and went behind the screen to change his clothes before leaving the inner room and going to the outer room.

After Jin Chenyuan left, Yue Li slowly opened her eyes. She had indeed fallen asleep, but Jin Chenyuan had been taking off her shoes, socks, and clothes. No matter how soundly she was sleeping, he had woken her up. Feeling the sticky residue on her body, Yue Li thought that Jin Chenyuan was too inconsiderate. In such hot weather, he didn't even know to take a shower first before letting her sleep.

She snorted inwardly, cast two cleansing spells on herself, and feeling refreshed, Yue Li turned over, closed her eyes, and went back to sleep.

At this moment, Huanyun returned from the storeroom to retrieve the boxes. Carefully holding the boxes in her arms, Huanyun asked, "Master, where are some of the boxes kept?"

He saw what was inside the box when he picked it up. He was so nervous carrying these boxes all the way here. If they were even slightly damaged, he wouldn't be able to afford to pay for them even if he sold himself.

If he had known, he wouldn't have rushed to get the box and had let You Yun get it instead. Wouldn't it have been easier for him to come back with his master?

You Yun stood at the door looking at this simpleton, speechless for a moment. Where couldn't he put it on the low table on the soft couch in the outer room or the round table next to it?

Does this simpleton really think that his master would tell him to put the box in the inner room?

Don't they realize that since last night, since the princess entered the master's bedroom, which of them, the servants who serve the master, has entered the master's bedroom?

Not to mention the bedroom, even when the princess is in the outer room, the master will not call them in unless there is something wrong.

Sure enough, he then heard his master say, "Put it on the soft couch."

After Huanyun carefully placed the boxes she was carrying on the low table on the soft couch, Jin Chenyuan said, "The Princess is resting in the inner room. I need to go out of the manor to take care of some business. Youyun, you stay outside the door and listen for any sounds from the room. If the Princess wakes up and I haven't returned to the manor yet, immediately send someone to the Ministry of Revenue to inform me."

Today he plans to process Yue Li's household registration. To create a new household registration for a 16-year-old girl out of thin air, he must find the household registration record of the girl from 16 years ago at the Ministry of Revenue and register Yue Li's name in the household registration record from 16 years ago. In this way, Yue Li will be considered to have been born in the capital 16 years ago.

Naturally, Yue Li acquired a household registration in the capital.

Having the Ministry of Revenue's records will save us a lot of trouble.

"Yes, Master, I will definitely keep my eyes peeled and listen carefully to any sounds coming from the room." Not knowing why his master wanted to go to the Ministry of Revenue, You Yun immediately obeyed his master's orders.

After instructing You Yun, Jin Chenyuan looked at Huan Yun, who was waiting to the side, and said, "Huan Yun, go to the clothing shop under the Prince's Mansion and call a few skilled tailors to come and take her measurements for a dress after the Princess wakes up. Also, have them bring a few bolts of the best fabrics from the shop so the Princess can see if there are any she likes. Don't forget to bring those bright and fashionable fabrics."

Yue Li is still young, so bright colors are most suitable for her.

"Yes, Master, I will go immediately," Huan Yun replied.

Seeing that his master had assigned tasks to both him and Huanyun, Youyun said worriedly, "But master, if Huanyun and I are both busy, there will be no one to serve you."

Upon hearing You Yun's words, Jin Chenyuan thought for a moment before asking, "Is Hao Yun in the accounting office with the steward, organizing all the properties under the Prince's Mansion?"

"Yes, master."

From this morning, when the master instructed the steward to organize the Prince's estate, everyone in the manor knew that the master was planning to get married.

After all, it is only during the wedding that such time and effort is spent organizing all the family's properties. After the wedding, these properties will be divided in two at the government office, with the other half transferred to the bride's name.

"Then let Chuanwu and Huang Zhong come out with me."

After giving his instructions, Jin Chenyuan went into the inner room to check on Yue Li, who was still fast asleep, before leaving the room.

Watching his master walk out of the courtyard, You Yun carefully closed the door to avoid making any noise that might wake the sleeping princess. After quietly closing the door, he stood to one side of it and waited.
