Hearing Chen Youyi say this, Xu Linfeng was also a little anxious, and said with a sigh, "I have already asked someone to tell the emperor over there in the palace, I hope the emperor can agree to take out that herb to treat the old lady." But this matter can't be in a hurry, the emperor has been in charge of every opportunity recently, and all his thoughts are on fighting, such a trivial matter, I am afraid that I will hit the nail if I go to tell him. ”

Chen Youyi immediately stood up, "The affairs of the common people in the world are important, but my mother's affairs are also important, just reply, just take out that kind of herb, it's not difficult, why don't you say it?" Or is there something else in this, or is the emperor not agreeing? ”

She was very anxious, now Mu Xiulian's life has been pinned on this herb, if this herb can't be obtained, then Meng Xiulian will definitely die, so Chen Youyi is so anxious.

"You sit down first and talk slowly, things are not as simple as you think, I have asked someone to mention this matter to the emperor several times, but they seem to have been encountering some problems."

"What's going on?" Looking at Xu Linfeng's tightly knit brows, Chen Youyi asked, "Is there any difficulty in this?" ”

Xu Linfeng let out a long sigh, in fact, things were far more complicated than Chen Youyi thought, but he didn't know how to talk about this matter for a while.

"I'm afraid, there are people who have a grudge against the Qin family to get in the way, so I can't get the herb, in fact, the emperor already knows about it, but he didn't reply, didn't refuse, and didn't directly promise to take out this herb."

Chen Youyi is not stupid, although he has not experienced those battles in the palace, but after listening to Xu Linfeng's words, he immediately understood what was going on.

"Looks like someone is trying to make something happen to our family."

"Don't be too anxious about this, we just do our best, some things are not what you want to do, there are too many intricate things." Xu Linfeng just comforted him quietly, in his eyes, even if Mu Xiulian died, it would not have much impact, after all, Mu Xiulian had nothing to do with him.

And for Chen Youyi, this is a big deal, even if she is desperate, she has to protect Mu Xiulian.

"Is it the people of Yuefu who are obstructing it? So the emperor was forced by pressure from all sides, so he didn't take out that herb to save my mother, right? ”

Chen Youyi made everything clear in one sentence, Xu Linfeng made a big detour, and refused to say this sentence in life or death, and finally it was said in her mouth.

When she said this, seeing the expression on Xu Linfeng's face, she immediately understood that he was reluctant to mention the people of Yuefu in front of him, probably because of his own interests, after all, in the court, the people of Yuefu still have considerable power.

"I know, Master Xu, I'm going back to take care of my mother, I'm sorry for you." Chen Youyi stood up and gave the eviction order, and her tone was low.

"Don't blame me, I really did my best." Xu Linfeng explained.

Chen Youyi doesn't blame Xu Linfeng, nor does he blame anyone, after all, this matter has nothing to do with others, and it is not easy to come forward to help.

"Where, how can I blame Lord Xu, you have helped me so much here, I thank you too late, I naturally don't want you to be involved in this matter."

Chen Youyi is a sensible person, and he is also knowledgeable, knowing that Xu Linfeng helped himself out of some friendship and relationship between two people, and not helping his own people is also considering the safety of others, although from his own point of view, this may be a bit unkind, but from Xu Linfeng's point of view, what people do is not wrong, and protecting their families is a choice that everyone will make.

Chen Youyi slowly turned around and left, but did not go to Mu Xiulian's room, but came to a small courtyard and sat down under the stone pier in the courtyard.

Xue'er sent Xu Linfeng away, and came to find Chen Youyi, looking at her figure sitting there alone, and her lonely appearance, Xue'er's heart was also a little distressed.

"Madam......" Xue'er couldn't find anything to comfort for a while, after all, Xu Linfeng was already such a big official, and he couldn't take that kind of thing out of the palace, so who else could he beg? Although Chen Youyi used to be a princess, she is now just an ordinary person like herself, even if she is rich, she has no way to ask for help, it is useless.

Xue'er also understood in her heart that if Mu Xiulian really died, it would have a great impact on Chen Youyi.

She watched Chen Youyi slowly take out the letter from her arms and hand it to herself, "Madam...... This ......"

"Take it, hurry up and let someone hand over this letter to Xianggong, and let Xianggong know that his mother is likely to not be able to pass this level, in case something really happens to his mother......" She bit her lower lip tightly, and the words behind her were really a little indescribable.

Xue'er knew that it was useless to have any words of comfort at this time, so she took the letter and nodded, "I'll let people send it out now." ”

"You call Bai Tiesheng over."

Xue'er turned around and went out, and after a while, Bai Tiesheng walked in, during this time, Chen Youyi had been taking care of Mu Xiulian at home, and she had less questions about business matters, but fortunately, she had Bai Tiesheng and Mo Xincheng by her side to help.

Bai Tiesheng helped manage the business on the dock, receiving and loading the goods and other voices on the dock, Mo Xincheng helped with the business of the tavern, Wang Da and Li Yan have always been in charge of the work on the side of Wangjiang Town Because of the affairs on the side of the capital, Chen Youyi let them stay at their posts with peace of mind, and did not let them come, which made things more chaotic.

"Madame, do you have any orders?"

"Do you know the eldest prince?"

As soon as these words came out, Bai Tiesheng was taken aback.

"Madam, what are you looking for the eldest prince? The eldest prince, is not an ordinary person, we probably can't see it, although I know a lot of people in the capital, but the people in the palace are really not easy to contact, especially like the eldest prince, he is now living in the palace. ”

Chen Youyi understands this that the eldest prince is the crown prince of Chen Guo and the elder brother of his own compatriot, since Xu Linfeng can't help her with this matter, then the only thing she can think of is the eldest prince.

Once, Chen Youyi made up her mind to live the life of an ordinary person, do her own business, and make her family's life better, that's all, and never have any contact with the people in the palace, unless it was a last resort.

And now, when she had no choice but to help, Xu Linfeng couldn't help herself, so she could only find other people, and she couldn't give up treating Mu Xiulian because of this.
