Fairy, Please Let Me Explain

Hearing Xu Yuan's request, the female intellectual was not surprised.

The clothes on the second floor of Hongshang Clothing Shop are very expensive, costing thousands of taels of silver. For a young servant like her, they are almost impossible to afford in their lifetime, but for the young masters of these aristocratic families, they are easily available. Give stuff away.

After a moment of pause, the female intellectual still said respectfully:

"Sir, the tattooed clothes purchased by the two distinguished guests just now are owned by the owner. I don't know the specific price. You may need to wait a moment."

Xu Yuan was not surprised and nodded:

"Then you wrap this up first. How much silver is it?"

The female intellectual without thinking:

"The Tianziqin skirt sells for one thousand two hundred taels, young master."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan didn't have much reaction, but Xiaobai's bright eyes widened immediately after hearing the words, and his eyes became a little surprised when he looked at the dress.

So expensive

She has been out several times, and the clothes and cloths in the market can be purchased with just a few hundred-grain copper coins. The better ones only cost a few taels, but the price here has actually increased more than a hundred times.

I feel like my heart is bleeding.

Glancing at the young master cautiously, Bai Muxi hesitated to speak.

She wanted to dissuade him, but the clothes were for the young master after all.

Then I thought about the decision I had made before.

If she wanted to buy such expensive clothes in private, she might not have enough money on her.

As if he guessed what she was thinking, Xu Yuan's message came quietly:

"This price is actually not expensive among tattoos. This Hongshang Clothing Store actually only buys one style. It is not strong and will not be of much use to you. After I return home, I will ask Xinyao to cut it for you. Something practical.”

"Then the price will be more expensive?" Bai Muxi asked.

"The cost is naturally higher. After all, you are almost at the beginning of the origin."

"." Bai Muxi hesitated and said nothing.

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows when he saw this:

"Just tell me what you have to say, why are you hesitating?"

"Um"

Bai Muxi pondered for a while, then cautiously asked:

"Can I exchange silver for those clothes?"

"." Xu Yuan didn't hold back.

Taking a deep breath, he asked a little funny:

"No, the one I bought in Hongshang is enough for the Soul Condensing Realm at most. If you don't want to wear tattoos, what will happen if your clothes get torn when you fight with others?"

Speaking of which,

He paused and then asked curiously:

"You don't just wear ordinary clothes made of gauze when you fight in the underground palace, right?"

Tattoos are a luxury for ordinary people, but they are also a necessity for cultivators.

Xian Jue Piao Piao's two big and tall surgical techniques are clashing. Ordinary clothes can be torn to pieces with just the shock. Without tattoos, half of them will be bare buttocks. The picture is so abstract that I can't bear to look directly at it.

Bai Muxi replied matter-of-factly:

"We have black death armor. Master, have you forgotten? When the White Walkers attack, we will all put on armor."

Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then rolled his eyes:

"You have one now too?"

"Senior Luo gave me some before, it was barely enough."

Speaking of the Black Death Fungus Armor, Bai Muxi's eyes lit up again, and she suggested in a low voice: "Actually, Master, the people of the Seven Cities Alliance can just use the Black Death Fungus Armor. It can save a lot of money."

After saying that, Xiaobai stared at Xu Yuan with flashing eyes.

All supplies were in short supply in the Deathly Silent Underground Palace. As the chief administrator, she had to save all supplies.

"."

Raising his hand and tapping the woman's eyebrows, Xu Yuan sounded a little disgusted:

"Look at how arrogant you are, the black death fungus wants to suck human life. It's better to spend money than lives."

After acquiring the Black Death Fungal Armor, the Gokuyuan Institute has begun research, hoping to make a modified version of the standard spiritual armor based on the White Walker's accompanying fungus carpet to reduce the cost.

After all, the protective strength of black death fungus armor is really high.

But unfortunately, this project has still made no progress.

Because the black death fungus armor will absorb the source energy of the person armored, it will affect the source energy resonance of the military formation technique to a certain extent.

And if the source crystal is used to supply energy, the cost will be sky-high, completely putting the cart before the horse.

When her eyebrows were touched, Bai Muxi took two steps back in cooperation, raised her hand and rubbed it. Knowing that the young master had made up his mind, he whispered:

"Thank you for your mercy, sir."

While the two were chatting, Hongshang's boss, who had gone to see off the two Mu brothers and sisters, also returned to the second floor.

After hearing the words conveyed by Zhike, the mature woman agreed and truthfully informed Xu Yuan the price of the dress customized by Mu Zhiyun after a little consideration of the pros and cons.

A total of forty-six thousand taels.

The moment he heard this number, Xu Yuan almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.

What kind of clothes are so expensive? !

In the past, in order to explore the depth of beauty, he would occasionally go to Hongshang Clothing Shop and spend a lot of money.

According to his previous experience here, the prices on the first floor of Hongshang Yifang range from tens to hundreds of taels, while the prices on the second floor start at a thousand taels, but at six or seven thousand taels, the price has basically reached the top.

However, after hearing the slightly panicked explanation from the mature woman's boss, Xu Yuan also understood that this dress was indeed worth the price.

Whether it is the style design, the materials used for the clothes, or the engraving of the array patterns, they have already reached the intensity of body-integrated tattoos.

After a little silence,

The mature woman’s boss tentatively asked Xu Yuan if he would still help pay.

This question without emotional intelligence made Xu Yuan roll his eyes.

Pay? Of course you have to pay.

But it's not because of face, but because if you want to investigate Mu Zhiyun, this opportunity is undoubtedly the best starting point.

He paid the money, and Mu Hongli and Mu Zhiyun will definitely receive the letter afterwards. Mu Zhiyun may be acting now. It's hard for Xu Yuan to guess her reaction, but with the temperament of the young marquis, he will definitely I will try my best to contact him.

This is considered a bait.

When Lou Ji and the others are doing intelligence work, sometimes you may not even hear a sound if you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on it. The possibility of buying one for 46,000 taels of silver is still very good for the overall situation.

After paying the money and wrapping their clothes, Xu Yuan and the others left Hongshang Clothing Store directly.

The streets outside were as bustling as ever. The Mu family brothers and sisters who had taken the lead had disappeared. People in all kinds of gorgeous clothes were bustling under the warm sunshine.

Humming a tune in his heart, Xu Yuan walked in front with a smile on his face, while Bai Muxi silently followed behind, carrying a silk bag containing new clothes, biting her red lips tightly under the purple gauze.

Although I knew in my heart that the young master had his own plans and that I was not qualified to take care of him, that was 46,000 taels of silver. If I saved this money, I could still buy more than twenty pairs of spiritual armors and exchange them for meat-eating corn. I don’t even know geometry.

After walking for ten breaths, Xu Yuan finally found Xiaobai who was lying behind him. He stared at her for a few breaths with a strange look on his face:

"Mu Xi, are you angry with me for spending money on a stranger?"

When Bai Muxi heard this, she quickly raised her eyes, shook her head and said:

"Mu Xi doesn't dare."

Xu Yuan smiled and said:

"Just because you don't dare doesn't mean you don't have it."

Bai Muxi subconsciously wanted to admit her mistake, but after thinking about it, she said bluntly:

"Mu Xi just thinks it's a little inappropriate for the young master to be so extravagant and wasteful when he is just raising money."

Hearing this, Xu Yuan's eyes slightly curved.

Somewhat unexpectedly, before today, Xiaobai would only admit his mistakes and would not dare to say such "advice" to him. However, after today's transaction, although Xiaobai is still a maid in name, in fact he can be called a maid. Concubine, and there is also a concubine with a "foreign relative".

This Biluochun's ability to change attitudes due to his status is quite good.

Thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan explained:

"The two people just now are the legitimate sons and daughters of the Wuchenghou Mansion. Do you know the past between me and the little princess?"

Bai Muxi hesitated slightly when he heard the words, but still answered truthfully:

"I heard a little bit that the young master seemed to have been sent to the frontier because of her. Later, there seemed to be a marriage contract, but in the end she was replaced by Princess Wu Yuan for some unknown reason."

Because of her limited background, she wanted to rise to the top and worked harder than other women around the young master. After arriving at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she had a rough understanding of the young master's past.

But it is a pity that Bai Muxi's understanding is still limited to his background. A lot of information comes from hearsay and reading official newspapers in Dayan.

After speaking softly, Bai Muxi paused briefly and asked tentatively:

"Is there a hidden secret in this?"

Xu Yuan nodded with a smile and briefly informed Bai Muxi of the whole matter.

After hearing this, Bai Muxi frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and showed a slight hesitation:

"Young master, are you suspecting that the princess directed and acted on her own? But wouldn't it be better to leave this kind of matter to Guild Xu?"

Xu Yuan shook his head gently, with a sigh in his tone:

"My father cannot come forward in this matter. Mu Zhiyun is the biological daughter of Marquis Wu Cheng."

Speaking of this, Xu Yuan smiled in a strange tone:

"Mu Xi, if the royal family provides evidence that I have a problem, do you think my father will believe the royal family's evidence or me?"

Bai Muxi was thoughtful:

"In this way, the official path will not work, and we can only take the secret path."

Xu Yuan sighed:

"Yes, originally I thought of handing it over to Lou Ji, but Mu Zhiyun hardly leaves Wuchenghou Mansion, and you have also seen her personality, which is completely unconventional. Lou Ji wants to check her out, You have to get close first, otherwise it will be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.

"Even if I throw out the bait, the other party has to take the initiative to bite the hook."

"Sir, instead of going around in such a roundabout way, why don't we directly tie her up?" Bai Muxi suggested coldly.

The corners of Xu Yuan's eyes twitched.

What a re-enactment of a classic, scoring twice.

With a slight cough, Xu Yuan frowned and said:

"Today is different from the past. If it is exposed, it will involve too much, and it is not confirmed that it is her yet."

"Isn't it already confirmed?"

Bai Muxi replied matter-of-factly, and under Xu Yuan's questioning gaze, she said softly:

"As for all the things you just mentioned, the princess's behavior seems to have perfectly evaded the Prime Minister's Office's investigation of her."

Xu Yuan frowned and said:

"Without actual evidence, your conclusion is too firm."

Bai Muxi shook her head slightly:

"Sir, the biggest evidence is actually the engagement contract between you and Mu Zhiyun. When you introduced it just now, you also said that the Wuchenghou Mansion already knew that you were being manipulated. It is impossible for Mu Zhiyun to not know about this. First of all, she knows that you and she are both victims in this whole thing."

Xu Yuan reminded:

"I have a bad reputation, and the Marquis Wucheng Mansion may not believe it."

"No, your reputation, sir, is nothing more than cruelty and lewdness. Tyranny is common among children of rich families. As for lewdness, Mu Xi doesn't think you need to use force because of your appearance, sir."

"."

Tsk, this is just the right amount of licking power.

Listening to Bai Muxi's words, Xu Yuan found that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.

His notoriety was actually exaggerated by scribes. With the power of the Wuchenghou Mansion, a little exploration of this rumored reputation would reveal the truth.

In other words, Wuchenghou Mansion may have acquiesced in this matter.

With his thoughts at this point, Xu Yuan felt a little puzzled.

its not right.

If Wuchenghou Mansion acquiesced that both parties were victims, then why was he sent to Jingjiang Mansion?

etc.

The image of Xu Changge slashing Mu Hongli half-kneeling on the ground with a knife flashed in his mind, as well as the erased records.

hiss.

Could it be that Xu Changge was taking the blame for his being assigned?

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan murmured in a low voice:

"What you said seems to make some sense."

"This is just one of them."

Bai Muxi pursed her lips and smiled, glancing in the direction where the Mu brothers and sisters had just left:

"After all the misunderstandings were resolved, why did Mu Zhiyun's meek character still refuse to marry at the risk of death?

"Your engagement with her is the link between the royal family and the prime minister's house. If Mu Zhiyun is really as bad-tempered as she reveals, can she really withstand the pressure of her family?

"Not to mention, the jealous Mrs. Fuguo will most likely do some ideological work on her."

"at last,

"Master, now we know that she has something special. Looking back in hindsight, don't you think that Mu Zhiyun's behavior of forcing her to break off the engagement even at the risk of death was actually because she was afraid of entering the prime minister's house?

"Even if you are a bride-in-law, you will always take her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to wake up. Once she enters the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is not up to her to investigate or not."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of people around him filled his ears again.

Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and pondered Xiaobai's words. After a while, his tone was serious:

"When I return home today, I will confirm some things first. If these things are confirmed, I won't mind scoring twice."

After saying this, Xu Yuan's serious expression disappeared, he looked at Xiaobai with a smile, stretched out his hand to hook her slender waist, and praised:

"You are very nice, I like you."

Being hugged on the street, Bai Muxi froze for a moment, but she didn't resist. She pursed her lips and smiled:

"Sir, you are in the middle of the game and cannot see the overall situation. Mu Xi is just reminding you."

"Hahaha."

Looking around at the various shops around him, Xu Yuan laughed twice, holding Xiao Bai's soft and slender waist, his eyes finally fixed on an old shop selling servants and various daily necessities:

"There must be a reward for reminding me. I will buy you some other items."
