Chapter 229: Is the Young Lady Not Joking?

Hearing this, Mu Weizhu's expression twisted slightly. "No, how could it be? I don't believe that Brother Ye would give that hairpin to another woman. He hardly ever interacts with women on normal days. How could he possibly..."

Saying this, Mu Weizhu suddenly thought of someone: Feng Yuqin.

Yes, it was Feng Yuqin.

If one had to say that Brother Ye had shown some concern for anyone over the years, it was that good-for-nothing Feng Yuqin from the Western Song Kingdom.

No, that woman was so weak. Hadn't it been said that she was already dead?

How could she appear in Tiancheng?

There must be something wrong.

Thinking of this, Mu Weizhu turned to a certain direction and said, "Go and check the identity of the woman that Xiaoxiao met today right away."

"Yes, Miss," the secret guard replied and immediately turned around and left.

Feng Yuqin's information was easy to obtain. In less than an hour, the secret guard returned with information about Feng Yuqin.

After listening to the information about Feng Yuqin, Mu Weizhu's face turned even uglier.

Seeing Mu Weizhu like this, Hong Xiaoxiao tentatively asked, "Weizhu, how do you know about this woman, Feng Yuqin?"

Mu Weizhu gave Hong Xiaoxiao a cold look and said, "Back then, when I knew that Brother Ye was going to get married, I arranged for people to kill this woman. But later I heard that this woman was dead. It seems that someone below gave me false information."

With a vicious and vengeful look in her eyes, Mu Weizhu said to the secret guard, "Go and check right away who gave me the false information. If you find out, exterminate their entire family."

"Yes, Miss," the secret guard left again.

"Weizhu, don't be angry. This Feng Yuqin is just from a small place. She is simply unworthy of Young Master Mo," Hong Xiaoxiao stepped forward and took Mu Weizhu's arm affectionately. "It's just a hairpin. Once you marry Young Master Mo, you can have as many as you want."

Mu Weizhu's eyes were cold and fierce, and her expression was twisted as she said, "Brother Ye is mine. He can't give a hairpin to anyone, not even this woman."

Hong Xiaoxiao was overjoyed deep down, but on the surface, she anxiously comforted Mu Weizhu. "Weizhu, what are you going to do? You mustn't do anything stupid. What if that woman says something bad about you in front of Young Master Mo?"

"How dare she!" Mu Weizhu said coldly. "Since she wants to participate in the alchemy competition, I'll make her lose face in the competition. By then, after Brother Ye sees that she is a good-for-nothing, he won't pay any attention to her."

Of course, she would also take back that hairpin later. Brother Ye's things were not worthy of being touched by anyone.

"Weizhu, although our hidden family is starting to make our appearance gradually, we haven't fully shown ourselves yet. So we can't act rashly," Hong Xiaoxiao pretended to persuade.

A hint of cruelty flashed in Mu Weizhu's eyes. "Who said I'm going to do it myself?"

"Then what are you going to do, Weizhu?" Hong Xiaoxiao asked anxiously, but deep down, she was secretly happy.

She thought that since Mo Xuanye had given the hairpin to Feng Yuqin, he must have some feelings for her.

If Mu Weizhu provoked Feng Yuqin at this time and angered Mo Xuanye, then she would have a chance.

Thinking like this, Hong Xiaoxiao added fuel to the fire. "Weizhu, you mustn't do anything stupid. If you anger Young Master Mo, it will be troublesome."

"If I don't do it myself, who will know it's me?" Mu Weizhu was usually a very calm person, but when it came to matters related to Mo Xuanye, her emotions would get out of control, and the things she did would also be extreme.

Hong Xiaoxiao had known her for so many years and was very clear about this.

So she was actually looking forward to Mu Weizhu doing something that would anger Mo Xuanye.

It would be best if she could directly kill Feng Yuqin.

Just thinking about that scene made Hong Xiaoxiao inexplicably excited.

"Then who are you going to find, Weizhu?" Hong Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

But Mu Weizhu didn't answer.

Hong Xiaoxiao didn't mind Mu Weizhu's reaction because she knew that Mu Weizhu would definitely not let Feng Yuqin go.

...

At the same time, after Feng Yuqin finished registering, she directly took Nightingale to the Purple Jade Tower.

As soon as Feng Yuqin appeared, her stunning beauty stunned the people inside.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper immediately came over and asked with a smile, "May I ask what the young lady would like to buy?"

The Purple Jade Tower was nine stories high, just like a modern department store. Each floor had different treasures.

The higher the floor, the more expensive the items.

"Can we have a private chat?" Feng Yuqin looked at the shopkeeper and asked.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper was slightly stunned.

The people around also changed their looks at Feng Yuqin after hearing this.

Feng Yuqin didn't care about the contemptuous looks from those people at all.

But Nightingale felt that if it weren't for her, A Qin wouldn't have to endure these.

Just as she was about to get angry, Feng Yuqin stopped her.

"Is that okay?" Feng Yuqin said. "Don't worry. I will definitely not let you suffer."

The shopkeeper looked at Feng Yuqin, probed her with his spiritual sense, but didn't sense her strength. However, he still nodded and said, "Then please come to the VIP room over there, young lady."

After Feng Yuqin followed the shopkeeper to the VIP room, the shopkeeper directly asked, "May I ask what the young lady would like to talk to this old man about?"

Feng Yuqin directly took out a box and placed it in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at Feng Yuqin curiously and opened the box in front of him.

At first, he was quite nonchalant.

But when he saw what was inside the box, he suddenly widened his eyes and looked at the medicinal herb inside in disbelief. He said in shock, "A... a hundred-year-old Heavenly Heart Lotus?"

Feng Yuqin curled her lips. "It's good that the shopkeeper can recognize it."

You should know that medicinal herbs of this age were very rare, and most people couldn't recognize them.

The shopkeeper also understood what Feng Yuqin meant. He came back to his senses, and his voice trembled slightly as he said, "If it were in other places, it would really be hard to recognize the exact age. At most, one could only tell that this medicinal herb was good."

Moreover, the shopkeeper's look at Feng Yuqin also changed at this moment.

In Tiancheng, not to mention a hundred-year-old one, it was extremely rare to find a ten-year-old medicinal herb.

Because generally, once the medicinal herbs matured, they would be picked by people. The places where they couldn't be picked must be extremely dangerous.

Even so, they would at most be fifty years old.

In their Purple Jade Tower, there weren't many fifty-year-old ones, let alone a hundred-year-old one.

"Then do you think it's feasible for me to exchange this medicinal herb for a meeting with your tower master?" Feng Yuqin looked at the shopkeeper and asked.

The shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this. "The young lady wants to meet our tower master?"

Feng Yuqin nodded. "If I can meet your tower master, this medicinal herb will be yours in the Purple Jade Tower."

"Miss... Miss, you're not joking, are you?" The shopkeeper thought that just for a meeting with the tower master, this medicinal herb would belong to their Purple Jade Tower. He felt like he had just hit the jackpot.

"Do you think I look like I'm joking?" Feng Yuqin looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
