Chapter 149 Long Yan's Fury

"Damn things!"

A sharp voice came from the imperial study room, and the little eunuchs outside the door were all trembling. It had been a long time since they had seen the emperor get so angry.

Chu Yanran brought a group of people to the door of the imperial study room, when she heard this voice, her footsteps stopped abruptly.

Nanny Qin followed behind, flatteringly said: "Your Majesty, the emperor is in a bad mood at this moment, if we appear at this time, will it be..."

The voice behind the words was hidden, but Chu Yanran understood the meaning.

She originally wanted to take the opportunity to gain a good impression in front of Mu Jingyu, but it was really inappropriate to go in at this time, and it would only make Mu Jingyu hate her even more under his rage.

However, what was the reason for Mu Jingyu's fury?

"You take someone back first, I am here waiting for the emperor to summon me."

"Yes." Nanny Qin nodded, and left with a group of people behind her.

Chu Yanran stood outside the door of the imperial study, waiting politely, never overstepping.

The little eunuch outside the door looked at each other, and all kinds of messages were conveyed in their eyes. No wonder the emperor favored the imperial concubine and empress only. Such a gentle and general woman would be liked by anyone.

In the imperial study room, ledgers were scattered on the floor.

Mu Jingyu leaned against the back of the chair, tightly closed his eyes, but the veins on his forehead bulged, betraying the turmoil in his heart at this moment.

He doesn't meddle in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, so he doesn't know that Mo Ye is fooling him like this!

The accounts of the Jiangnan Gambling House do not match with what he has at all. There are astonishing amounts of kickbacks and turnover. How can he not be angry?

Manager Li on the side frowned slightly. He was the one who had been with the emperor for the longest time, and he had never seen the emperor lose his temper because of anything. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at the words on the ledger, and his heart was a little more worried. Think about it.

He had seen the picture of the ledger before, and it was the ledger of Jiangnan Casino.

Although he is not completely clear about the Jiangnan Casino, he still knows a little bit. Every month, the imperial court earns a large part of the profits from the Jiangnan Casino. Now that the emperor sees the account book like this, he must be furious. The access is too large, and the details can't match it.

Thinking of this, Manager Li frowned even deeper. He didn't know much about the world, so he couldn't intervene in this matter.

"Your Majesty, it's more important to take care of the dragon's body, don't get angry!"

"Don't get angry?" Mu Jingyu sneered, and slowly opened his eyes, which were cold.

"I helped him to the position that day because I hoped that he could be my right-hand man. I never thought that he would be so ambitious. How could I not be angry?"

Mu Jingyu's eyes were full of anger, and there was a mouthful of resentment in his heart, which made Manager Li difficult to fathom.

"Your Majesty, this old slave thinks that it is clear that someone is sowing discord, otherwise, how could this account book have arrived at the Imperial Study Room for no reason?"

"Do you think I don't know?"

Mu Jingyu tapped the table with his index finger and middle finger alternately, the anger on his face faded little by little, the ledger would not have grown legs and ran to the imperial study by itself, someone must have done it on purpose.

However, it is also an indisputable fact that Mo Ye tampered with the ledger.

"Did anyone enter or leave the palace last night?"

"The old slave is going to interrogate now."

After all, Director Li was about to go out, and just as he reached the door of the imperial study, he was stopped by Mu Jingyu's exit.

"Wait a moment."

"What other orders does the emperor have?"

"This matter must be asked quietly. If you know something, you must keep it a secret. Apart from me, I don't want anyone else to know about this matter. Do you understand?"

"Old slave understands."

Seeing Director Li walk out of the imperial study, Mu Jingyu leaned back on the chair, his eyes were full of dark currents, and his heart was even more overwhelmed.

The person who can do this silently already has a rough candidate in his heart. If this person really did it, then he can probably guess a little bit about this person's intentions.

No, he still has to go to Mo Ye himself to verify his statement on this matter.

Otherwise... there's no guarantee that Mo Ye won't have second thoughts.

Chu Yanran had been waiting at the door of the imperial study room, but after waiting for a long time, she saw Mr. Li coming out of the room in a hurry with a nervous expression on his face.

Without even thinking about it, Chu Yanran hastily greeted her.

"Mr. Li, please stop."

"This old slave sees the imperial concubine and empress." Manager Li bowed slightly.

Chu Yanran smiled indifferently: "The manager is free, I have been waiting in this imperial study for a long time, and I know that the emperor is troubled by state affairs, but I don't know the specifics..." Chu Yanran wisely did not say the following words.

Manager Li was about to open his mouth, but suddenly remembered his emperor's order before he left, so he had to shut up embarrassingly.

"The imperial concubine should not bother the emperor today, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body."

"With this insight, I naturally still have it. It's just that the emperor is upset, and I am also upset, so I came here to ask the manager, what is the emperor's trouble? In this way, I can solve the emperor's worries."

Chu Yanran's words were comprehensive and impeccable, so Manager Li couldn't find a single fault.

If the emperor hadn't explained it to him in advance, he would really have said it.

"Imperial Concubine, the Emperor has told me that there is no need to publicize this matter. Besides, the Empress Dowager is now the head of the harem and should manage the affairs of the harem well. The Empress Dowager should not interfere with these important matters, so as not to embarrass the old servant."

"What the manager said is that I have overstepped." Chu Yanran smiled, but the sinisterness in her eyes flashed past.

"Since Mr. Manager still has something to do, I won't bother you."

"Thank you, Concubine, for your understanding." After finishing speaking, Director Li nodded at Chu Yanran, and walked away quickly.

Chu Yanran turned around slowly, her hands in her sleeves were unconsciously clenched, her fingers were soft and her knuckles were turning white.

Although she didn't know exactly what happened, she had a premonition that this incident must have something to do with Chu Yinge, as long as Chu Yinge was put in the palace, she would never have peace.

She has suffered so much from Chu Yinge, and she can no longer act rashly, but...

Chu Yanran's cold face suddenly burst into laughter, why did she forget that there is another person in this world who hates Chu Yinge?Since Mu Jingyu didn't like making her an enemy of Chu Yinge, why didn't she let others do it?

That person in the cold palace must wish to swallow Chu Yinge alive, as long as she plays a little trick, all of this will happen naturally.

Thinking of this, Chu Yanran's heart became much smoother, looking in the direction of Leng Gong, a flash of calculation flashed in her eyes.

……

The side hall of Lianxi Palace is a harmonious and good picture, not affected by the tense situation outside at all.

Chu Yinge and Guozi's master and servant were actually in the yard, making tea.

The rich tea fragrance was overflowing, but it gave a bit of warmth to the cold Lianxi Gongtian.

Such a beautiful picture is really enviable.
