Chapter 402: A Deeper Meaning
Mu Xiyue's words seemed to be very useful to the Thirteenth Prince, and the face that was originally a little cold couldn't help but ease a little, and his sharp eyes swept over Mu Xiyue's face and nodded.
"No wonder even the Queen Mother is impressed by you, this girl is really a little different."
The thirteenth prince's voice was calm and a little magnetic, and as he spoke, his eyes swept to the first floor, looking at the food on people's plates, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he turned to look at Mu Xiyue.
"Every part of your Shangpin Pavilion has its own characteristics, and it also has a novel taste, not only the dishes, the wine, but even the furnishings in every part of the entire Shangpin Pavilion have a bit of meaning, which really makes people have to be impressed."
While speaking, the thirteenth prince's eyes wandered, looking at the expression on Mu Xiyue's face, and he couldn't help but think to himself.
Mu Xiyue listened to the words of the Thirteenth Prince, her heart fluctuated slightly, and a different color quickly flashed in her eyes, she didn't believe that the Thirteenth Prince had wasted so many words just now, and now she just wanted to praise Shangpin Pavilion in front of herself.
What's more, the Thirteen Princes have always been unpredictable, and the only thing that is certain is that everything he does will have his purpose.
"The prince praised it falsely, and we are doing our best to meet the needs of the guests."
The thirteenth prince didn't say anything substantial, and Mu Xiyue also responded casually, it was nothing more than playing tai chi, whoever couldn't help it, who spoke first, this point, Mu Xiyue had already learned in the backyard of the general's mansion.
Sure enough, the thirteenth prince looked at Mu Xiyue like this, his eyes sank, and he couldn't help but feel a fire in his heart, but he couldn't find any flaws in Mu Xiyue, this fire was burning in his heart, and he couldn't vent it at all.
"In the past few days, you have observed that you are good and unique in every way, but you are not perfect, because you are missing an important thing."
The thirteenth prince suppressed the annoyance in his heart for a long time, his eyes looked at Mu Xiyue, the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook up a touch of indescribable meaning, and his sharp eyes narrowed slightly, a little more weird.
Mu Xiyue's heart sank, and her hands couldn't help but clench quietly, sure enough, Thirteen must be holding on to herself!
Her heart trembled uneasily, Mu Xiyue tried her best to control her emotions, and for a moment, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and when she raised her head to look at the thirteenth prince, there was only calm and indifference left on her face.
"The Thirteenth Prince has always been a senior in business, and Qian Ling naturally doesn't dare to compare with you, but Shangpin Pavilion has just started, and with the needs of guests in the future, it will become fuller and fuller."
Mu Xiyue said, her heart sank slightly, her clear eyes looked at the thirteen princes, and she tried her best to control the expression on her face.
"Since this girl of yours respectfully calls this king a senior, then this king will not beat around the bush with you."
The thirteenth prince has never liked to play dumb riddles, and seeing that Mu Xiyue always took advantage of the loophole in his own words, he lost his patience for a while, and opened his mouth without waiting for Mu Xiyue to answer.
"Shang Pin Ge is full of colors, the method is novel, but the only thing is missing game, since you have such an elegant style here, it naturally attracts some high-ranking and noble people, if there is no game to accompany you, isn't it a little boring? It just so happens that there are two Orion teams in this king, we can cooperate, this game is added to the table, we are mutually beneficial, what do you think? ”
The thirteen princes' voices carried the innate sense of majesty and oppression, which made people's hearts be depressed a little for no reason.
Mu Xiyue's heart sank, and the hands that were originally slightly clenched were a little harder, and sure enough, the thirteenth prince still grasped this problem, although he changed his way, he still did not deviate from his original intention, he was really afraid of something!
Barely maintaining the calmness on her face, Mu Xiyue raised her head to meet the sharp gaze of the thirteen princes like a falcon, and the corners of her lips hooked up a shallow smile.
"Some people say that women are obsessed with some details and can't always do great things, which Qianling agrees with and disagrees with a little."
Mu Xiyue didn't directly answer the words of the thirteenth prince, and slowly walked towards the edge railing of the attic, looking at the guests who were dining on the first floor, the expression on her face eased slightly.
"Although Shang Pin Ge is not a vegetarian diet, but the meat in it is artificially raised, coupled with the craftsmanship of our kitchen master, it can also satisfy people's appetites, and although the game is beautiful, it is very easy to raise everyone's mouth, if the game is on the table, everyone is addicted to food, it is easy to cause wanton killing, after all, the game is much rarer than the poultry and livestock raised, thinking like this, Qianling is a little unbearable."
Mu Xiyue's voice was smooth and soft, her eyes were clear, and a few words came out, not only politely rejecting the Thirteenth Prince, but also blocking his mouth, so that he couldn't get out of the fire in his heart.
"Businessmen are mainly profit-oriented, you are a smart person, and you will naturally understand the truth, what does it matter if you kill a few wild animals?"
The thirteenth prince's voice was a little gloomy, and as he spoke, his sharp gaze like a falcon swept over Mu Xiyue's face, but he didn't know why, the thirteenth prince, who had read countless people, couldn't understand what this thirteen-year-old child was thinking at the moment!
When the words just now came out, Mu Xiyue's originally hanging heart calmed down a little, raised her head, and looked at the deep hands of the thirteen princes, with a little more solemnity on her face.
"The identity and status of the Thirteen Princes, everyone in my Celestial Dynasty knows it, you are not only the most relied on by the emperor, but also the emperor's younger brother, a highly respected figure like you, naturally knows that the current foundation of my Celestial Dynasty is not very stable, and the killing of wild animals seems to be nothing, but if other restaurants follow suit in the future, it will definitely bring some trouble to the generals guarding the border at that time, and this is not the situation that the Thirteen Princes want to see, right?"
Mu Xiyue said as she spoke, her eyes as clear as water looked towards the Thirteenth Prince, and saw that the expression on his face suddenly tensed, the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook up, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
A few words quietly put the matter in a very high position, and put the thirteen princes on top of it without steps down, not to mention, he himself knew the possible consequences of this matter, but he didn't expect Mu Xiyue to analyze it so thoroughly, and now it seems that he has underestimated this little girl!
The thirteenth prince looked at Mu Xiyue with a cold face, his sharp eyes stared, the corners of his lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word, let alone find her flaws, this made anyone who listened to it have to nod, it was really blocked.
"Anyway, I still have to thank the thirteen princes for reminding them, in the future, our kitchen masters still need to improve their cooking skills, today's meal is Qianling's invitation to the thirteen princes!"
Mu Xiyue looked at the thirteenth prince like this, the corners of her lips were leisurely hooked, and between speaking, she asked Mo Zi to explain to the steward downstairs, looked downstairs and made a gesture towards her, turned her face to the thirteenth prince, and smiled again.
"Qian Ling is not here to hinder the Thirteenth Prince, I hope you can enjoy it!"
While speaking, Mu Xiyue bowed to the thirteen princes slightly, watching the thirteen princes staring at him for a long time without speaking, he got up and walked towards Mo Yanju, forcibly suppressing the panic in his heart, and his steps were still as steady as usual.
The thirteenth prince stared at Mu Xiyue and left, earning his hands up, the anger in his stomach was nowhere to go, and his whole body trembled slightly, no one in the entire Heavenly Empire dared to say a word "no" to himself, and now this little girl not only rejected herself, but also made herself unable to say a word of punishment, she was really depressed and about to explode!
"Don't get complacent too early, there will always be a time for you to kneel before this king and plead!"
The thirteenth prince roared at Mu Xiyue's figure, and the words seemed to be chewed in his mouth and squeezed out of his teeth, which was a little more cold out of thin air.
arrived at Mo Yanju.
Mu Xiyue watched Mo Zi watch the door, her tense nerves suddenly loosened, her eyes showed a little panic, her eyes flickered, and her brows couldn't help frowning tightly.
"Miss, take a sip of hot tea!"
Mo Zi followed Mu Xiyue just now, and he was also tense with nerves, but now his hands were cold, and he turned around and looked at Mu Xiyue's whole body trembling slightly, it is conceivable that Mu Xiyue was under pressure many times greater than herself.
Looking at the tea handed over by Mo Zi, Mu Xiyue reached out and sent it, touching the warmth of that moment, which calmed her trembling heart a little.
"Miss, this thirteen princes look gentle and elegant, but the slave always feels that he has an evil aura on him, and as long as he is close to him, he is nervous."
Mo Zi took Mu Xiyue's empty cup, and couldn't help but say, following Mu Xiyue's side, Mo Zi has also seen the Thirteen Princes a few times, and every time he meets her, he will involuntarily tense the nerves all over his body, bringing out a sense of defensiveness.
Looking up at Mo Zi holding his shoulders somewhat exaggeratedly, Mu Xiyue's expression on her face became even more gloomy, and she didn't speak, but fell into her own deep thought.
From the previous time in the palace, the thirteen princes even sent the palace maid to lead him to his territory under the false decree, thinking about it carefully, the purpose of the thirteen princes seems to be the same, that is, to cooperate with himself, the most obvious thing is cooperation, but thinking deeply, it is not so simple.
If he really cooperated with the Thirteenth Prince, to some extent, it seems that Mo Yichen was implicated again, perhaps, the Thirteenth Prince wanted to contain Mo Yichen through himself?
Thinking of what happened before, Mu Xiyue's heart couldn't help sinking, and she got up and walked out towards the door.
Mo Zi saw Mu Xiyue suddenly walk out, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly put down the tea in his hand and followed.
In the shopkeeper's separate room on the first floor, Xingwang was checking the account book in his hand, and suddenly heard a hurried sound of pushing the door, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Mu Xiyue coming in, and his face was stunned.
"Third Miss, what's wrong?"
Xingwang looked at Mu Xiyue's face with something wrong, put down the account book in his hand, and hurriedly greeted him.
"Find out the information of all the suppliers of Shangpin Ge."
Mu Xiyue's voice was a little anxious, and the smile she saw at the corner of the Thirteen Prince's mouth just now made her feel a chill.
Xingwang was stunned for a moment, didn't have time to think about it, turned around and walked towards the bookcase, searched for a while, and put all the information of all the merchants involved in Shangpinge's food supply in front of Mu Xiyue.
