Chapter 196
Killing A Chicken As an Example To A Fox
After taming the Snow Fox, Mu Yunyao felt a sense of novelty . Not only did she personally cook for the Snow Fox, she even trimmed its nails and fur, as if she was treating it like a child .
Yue Wang received the news from Yangzhou City and handed the letter to Mu Yunyao . His gaze swept across the Snow Fox lying on her shoulder, and his brows slightly moved . “The fox is cunning, and you have no defense against it like this . Aren’t you afraid that it’ll attack you while you’re not on guard?”
Mu Yunyao slightly raised the corner of her mouth and raised her arm . The Snow Fox crawled from her shoulder to her palm, “Didn’t Fourth Master say that the Snow Fox in Western Guangdong has spiritual and extremely protective after being tamed? I think it knows what’s best . ”
The Snow Fox licked Mu Yunyao’s fingertips ingratiatingly as it wagged its tail, trying its best to wrap it around her wrist . Its eyes were remarkably intelligent .
Yue Wang was a little curious . He had seen other people taming the Snow Fox before but had never seen the tamed Snow Fox being so intimate with his master . “What did you do?”
Mu Yunyao narrowed her eyes, “Killing a chicken as an example to a fox doesn’t count?” She hadn’t taken Snow Fox for a few days of cooking in vain . Although the animal was not smart, it had a keen intuition and knew how to choose the most advantageous option for it .
Although the smarter the snow fox is, the more difficult it is to tame it . However, he somehow had an inexplicable feeling that Mu Yunyao had a plan, and it seemed like he had picked the right one .
Mu Yunyao raised her hand and put the Snow Fox on her shoulder as she carefully read the contents of the letter . The Snow Fox was so cute . Seeing she lowers her head, it couldn’t help but lower its head to join in the fun .The Mistress and the Snow Fox had curved eyebrows and eyes that looked so similar, causing Yue Wang to look at them more than once . He felt as if feathers were gently floating down from his heart, and touching him felt a slight itch, causing his heart to tremble .
“Looks like giving him the peony was quite effective . ” Mu Yunyao saw that Yue Wang was still in a daze after she finished speaking . She thought that he was thinking about something, so she couldn’t help but wait quietly at the side .
Yue Wang returned to his senses, involuntarily closed his eyes . The corners of his lips curled up: “This way, our next plan will be much more secure . ”
“Yes . Did Fourth Master hear about the people who will send down to check the salt tax?”
“If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Governor Li Yuanyi of Liangjiang . ”
“Surnamed Li?” Did the Li family members appear too frequently?
Yue Wang nodded slightly . “Li Yuanyi is a branch of the Li family, and the First Prince’s consort is currently from this branch . In all seriousness, the First Prince should address Li Yuanyi as his cousin . ”
Mu Yunyao couldn’t help raising her lips and sighing in his heart . The entire Jiangnan will be bustling with noise and excitement, “The Emperor has sent people to check the salt tax, so it is natural that they want to clean up the salt policy and not let the private salt trade be too rampant . However, if they send all the Li family members to Jiangnan, it would be useless, right?”
Jiangnan had become the domain of the Li family . Why wouldn’t they take the opportunity to rein in the salt merchant and help the First Prince develop his wings?
“Imperial Father’s thoughts is meticulous, and his actions have always had his own rules and regulations . It is too difficult for outsiders to guess what he is thinking, but from the looks of it, Imperial Father should be somewhat dissatisfied with Eldest Brother . ”
Mu Yunyao quickly thought of the recently sealed Cai Yue Pavilion . There was a rumor that the First Prince’s men had been active in the Imperial Court, hoping to help Cai Yue Pavilion obtain the Emperor’s reward and recognition . However, the results were not satisfactory .

“Fourth Master, do you know what the Governor of Liangjiang likes?”
Yue Wang was silent for a moment before his eyes moved slightly and flashed with a dark glint: “Beauty!”
Mu Yunyao couldn’t help but chuckle . “That’s true . How can there be men that don’t like beauties in this world? Being fond of beauty is much easier . Could Fourth Master lend Miss Ming Yin to me for some time to cultivate?”
“Ming Yin practices the technique of assassination . If you want to use it against Li Yuanyi, I’m afraid the effect will not be too good . I can find someone else to send it to you . “
“There’s no need . I think Miss Ming Yin is an excellent person . Furthermore, with her assassination skills, she can prevent Li Yuanyi from using force to take advantage of her . ” With the plan in Mu Yunyao’s mind, she couldn’t help but relax a lot . She placed the Snow Fox on her lap and gently stroked its back .
Seeing Mu Yunyao’s determination, Yue Wang did not try to force it anymore . His gaze fell on the Snow Fox, who was squinting its eyes, “Have you decided what to name it?”
“I haven’t thought about it yet . Do you have any advice for me, Fourth Master?”
“Snow Fox’s body is light, and it is dashing through the snow as if it was flying . How about just calling Taxue?”
Mu Yunyao’s smile was brilliant . I have to say that the name that Yue Wang thought of really fit her heart . The ferret raised by the young lady of the Su family was called Baixue (Snow White), and the fox she had raised named Taxue (Snow Tread), so wasn’t that the perfect way to express her state of mind?
“Ok . Thank you for giving the name, Fourth Master . ”
Not long after Mu Yunyao returned home, Cai Qing walked in, “Your servant greets Miss . ”
“Is there something wrong with the person you’re watching?”
“In response to Miss, one of the two midwives watched suddenly caught in a fire last night . She slept soundly at night, and the house was burnt and collapsed . They were unable to escape, causing the entire family to lose their lives . While the other midwife came back from the delivery, she drank a little wine and slipped into the water and drowned . ”
Mu Yunyao nodded and indicated to pass the Jin Lan purse on one side .
Cai Qing quickly refused, “Miss, I can’t accept this . ”
“Let’s take it . This time I used the children of Ci You Bureau to inquire about the news . I have limited ability and am unable to bring all of them here to live, but with their help, the reward they deserve will not be small . Spring Day has also come, and with these silver taels, you will help them buy some clothes . ”
Cai Qing quickly knelt down to thank her: “Thank you for your great kindness, Miss . ”
“There’s no need to be like this . It’s just a few taels of silver . In the future, if they find out any useful information, they can send it to Jin Xiu Garden . If it’s useful, then I will give them some reward . ”
“Yes . ”
In the evening, Liu Liang rushed back with news of Qi Ming . “Mistress . Wu Minzhi and her men are extremely careful . Even after confirming Qi Ming’s identity, they are still wary of him . Qi Ming and her men did not get any useful information . But from other people’s mouths, they can vaguely sense that there will be a large number of official salt was about to go through jingling city via Xijiang River in a few days . ”
Mu Yunyao’s heart stirred, “Seeing that the Emperor is about to dispatch people to check the salt tax, there shouldn’t be a large amount of official salt sell at this time . ” Every time the salt tax was to be verified, the salt merchants would always reduce the amount of salt sold . After all, at this time, no one dares to do anything with the salt tax, which will increase the cost a lot more than usual .
“It’s just a vaguely heard news, which is not necessarily true . ”
“There will be no such news coming out for no reason . Telling Qi Ming to be careful and do not rush to investigate . The more stable this time, the more confused people will be . He should have been preparing for Yi Bao Xuan for some time . How is his preparation?”
