”The Jewelry Pavilion to the south. Interesting. I'll go take a look tomorrow.” Shui Qinan said indifferently as she put the account book away.
”Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss.” A servant girl ran in hastily. Shui Qinan glanced at the servant, probably because Shui Qinan's gaze was too domineering, the servant felt that her actions just now were too disrespectful, and immediately knelt down and said: ”Young miss, please forgive me.”
”What kind of manners do you have to be so flustered? What's the matter!” The mama opened her mouth to speak before Shui Qinan spoke, in case Shui Qinan decided to punish the servant girl in front of her. Shui Qinan looked at the mama thoughtfully, and the mama's scalp turned numb as she lowered her head.
”Speak, what is it?” Shui Qinan said softly, with a power that could shock the hearts and minds of people.
The maidservant was shocked. ”Reporting to Eldest Miss, Your Majesty …” The Emperor has come. He's waiting in the main hall. ”
”Your Majesty? Which one? ” Shui Qinan wanted to ask if it was the old emperor or Hou Qingyu.
”The late emperor passed away a few months ago. The current emperor is the new emperor.” The servant girl said carefully.
”Got it.” Shui Qinan replied as she stood up and gave a light command, ”Momo, stay here and carefully read the account book. When I come back, tell me what you've figured out.”
After saying that, Shui Qinan walked out of the room, and the nanny behind him was drenched in cold sweat.
Shui Qinan appeared in front of Hou Qingyu with a red-clothed appearance. Hou Qingyu was stunned, the first time he saw Shui Qinan was at the Imperial Palace, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. The thing that really made him pay attention was that Family Competition.
Shui Qinan's red clothing jumped into his line of sight, causing the greyish white life force to come back to life.
”You're back.” Hou Qingyu said with a gentle smile, he did not have the airs of an Emperor, just like how he was when Shui Qinan first met him, warm like jade.
This kind of person was most afraid of dealing with matters regarding government affairs, becoming the emperor. However, it just so happened that he … As intelligent as Shui Qinan was, how could she not understand why Hou Qingyu wanted to be the emperor?
”Are we leaving this time or …” Hou Qingyu wanted to say something but hesitated. He naturally hoped that Shui Qinan would leave, but he was also clear that a person like Shui Qinan would not stay for long.
”I'll be leaving in a few days. When I returned to the Yan Qi Kingdom, I wanted to ask if Xiao You's academy was really not willing to leave for the next three years.” Shui Qinan asked indifferently.
Hou Qingyu realized that Shui Qinan missed him.
”Nangong Academy is indeed not allowed. This rule has been set for hundreds of years. Of course, it's not without exceptions. If Xiao You was good enough, President Nangong is a person who valued talented people, he would not be willing to let Xiao You leave the academy … ” Hou Qingyu said meaningfully.
Shui Qinan immediately understood. If President Nangong didn't agree to Xiao You coming out, then she would bring Xiao You away. She wanted to see if President Nangong would agree or not, but she still had something she needed to do before she went to find Xiao You.
New Jewelry Pavilion in the South...
”Do you know the background of the newly opened Jewelry Pavilion in the south?” Shui Qinan kept feeling that the appearance of the Jewel Pavilion was a little sudden, as though it was done on purpose. Furthermore, it could become the place with the largest amount of treasures in the Yan Qi Kingdom within one to two months, its background and strength were definitely not simple.
