Chapter 182: Conflict
After returning to the palace, Yu Jiuer immediately asked Butler Feng to find Jun Mo's youth clothes: "Just find a few sets that can fit my body! Hurry up, I need them urgently!"
She had to intercept him before the Prime Minister returned home from work.
Not long after, Butler Feng found several sets of clothes that Jun Mo wore when he was thirteen or fourteen years old.
Yu Jiuer picked one and said to Yu Tao and Lu Xiu, "You guys should also pick one to wear. It will be more convenient for us to go out and do things when we dress up as men!"
The two of them waved their hands quickly: "How dare we wear the prince's clothes?"
Butler Feng was very perceptive and suggested, "There are some clothes made for servants in the mansion that no one has worn. How about taking them?"
"take!"
Not long after, three people dressed as men quietly slipped out of the back door of the palace.
Shadow whispered to Moon Shadow, "Why doesn't the master just go through the main entrance?"
He knew that the prince had given his master absolute freedom and she could enter and leave the palace at will.
"I'm afraid the master is going to do something bad!" Yueying said concisely.
After getting on the carriage, Yu Jiuer asked Lu Xiu: "Do you know where the Prime Minister's residence is?"
Green Sleeves said honestly, "I don't know, but it's not difficult for the master to find out. Just go to the street and find a well-dressed young lady from a wealthy family and ask her."
"Is the Prime Minister so popular among the young ladies?"
Green Sleeve said: "Most of the women in the capital are suitors of the Prime Minister. I know my own limitations and don't dare to have any desires!"
Yu Jiuer laughed at herself and said, "Oh! Indeed! Even I want to get close to him, let alone those girls waiting to get married!"
Lu Xiu pursed her lips, hesitating: "Master, well, if the prince knew that you also coveted the Prime Minister..."
"Then keep your mouth shut and don't let him know!" Yu Jiuer looked calm, but when she saw Lu Xiu's frightened face, she burst into laughter.
"Green Sleeves, put away the dirty thoughts in your head. I just want to discuss business with him, not to pursue him. Don't worry!"
"Then why doesn't the master give him a visiting card and come directly to his house?"
Yu Jiuer laughed at herself and said, "He is such an outstanding person, there must be many people who want to discuss business with him. How can he pay attention to me, a concubine, asking for an audience?"
Sure enough, Shadow found a well-dressed woman on the street and asked her, and she was soon found at Shang Buqun's mansion.
As soon as the carriage of Yu Jiuer and the other two stopped in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, they saw Shang Buqun's carriage slowly approaching.
She quickly jumped off the carriage and was about to call him, but a group of crazy women appeared out of nowhere and ran towards Shang Buqun's carriage: "Master Prime Minister! Master Prime Minister! Give us a word!..."
These women are even crazier than modern star-chasers.
Shang Buqun's carriage didn't even stop, but rushed straight into the mansion. The guards behind him chased him away like flies.
Seeing this, Yu Tao shook her head and sighed, "Ninth Miss, forget it! If we rush up like this, I'm afraid we'll be treated as crazy people and chased away!"
Yu Jiuer thought for a moment, and then shouted to the group of crazy fans: "Who wants to know the most explosive news about the Prime Minister? Follow me!"
Sure enough, this shout attracted a bunch of crazy fans.
Yu Jiuer asked everyone to run forward for a distance, and then stopped when they were far away from the Prime Minister's Mansion. She said to the crazy people who surrounded her, "I will pay you for the Prime Minister's information. Do you want to sell it to me?"
"Tsk! We thought you had some explosive news. Who cares about money? What we want is the favor of the Prime Minister!"
They waved their sleeves and turned to leave.
Yu Jiuer was dumbfounded again. You don’t even want money?
However, just by looking at their attire, one can guess that these people are either rich or noble. Who would be short of money if they dared to covet the position of Prime Minister?
People as poor as Green Sleeves dare not "chase stars".
Yu Jiuer refused to give up and yelled again: "Don't go! I really have some explosive news about the Prime Minister. We can exchange it!"
This successfully brought them back.
"Why should we believe you? Besides, who are you? A grown man asking about the Prime Minister's preferences, are you interested in him too?"
"Don't worry about it. Are you going to change or not? With so many of you here, are you afraid that I will run away?" Yu Jiuer crossed her arms in front of her chest and said in a rude tone.
"It will be your loss if you don't change it! This information is very private. I spent a lot of money to get it from the Prime Minister's personal servant!"
"Okay! What information do you want to know about the Prime Minister?"
"I want to know the Prime Minister's past travel routes and his favorite things!"
Yu Jiuer believed that they must have dug out these two things long ago and they were not a secret at all. It was just that she was pressed for time and couldn't wait to investigate.
Sure enough, they looked at each other, and one of the women said directly: "The Prime Minister only goes between the Imperial Palace and the Prime Minister's Mansion every day. He likes to drink the most, but it has to be a very good wine to arouse his interest!"
"That's all?" Yu Jiuer thought it was too little. "My information is worth more than that! Doesn't he have any place he likes to go?"
How could she catch him between two points?
They all shook their heads, apparently they really didn't know.
"It's your turn to speak!" They couldn't wait to know the Prime Minister's private information.
Yu Jiuer cleared her throat and looked around. Only Yu Tao and the others were there, so she whispered, "The Prime Minister's underwear is moon-white."
"Wow!" This group of crazy fans immediately became excited.
After everyone left, Lu Xiu's eyes were full of questions: "My dear concubine Yu, why do you even know the color of the Prime Minister's underwear? Could it be that you..."
Yu Jiuer swung the fan in her hand towards her head: "Of course it's just a guess! Anyway, no one dares to verify the truth!"
"Let's go back!"
The group had to return home disappointed!
After Yu Jiuer returned, she thought hard but could not think of a good way to get close to Shang Buqun.
He is such an outstanding person, he has everything he needs, his movements are mysterious, and his body is like an impenetrable iron barrel. It is very difficult to approach him quietly.
What should she do? Should she try to scam someone?
Touch porcelain?
Yu Jiuer was shocked. For the sake of money, it was possible!
The next day, Yu Jiuer got up before dawn. Fortunately, Jun Mo was busy with something last night and did not sneak into her room, which made it convenient for her to get up early and commit the crime.
Yu Jiuer also dug out the yawning Lu Xiu and Yu Tao from under the quilt.
How can you commit fraud without help?
Shadow rode the horse and took them to the road that the Prime Minister had to take to get to the palace.
After finding a good place to commit the crime, Yu Jiuer said, "When the Prime Minister's carriage comes over, I will go up to him and claim compensation. You guys act according to your circumstances and go up to him to claim compensation!"
It was too difficult for her, a concubine, to have any contact with such a gifted boy!
Are you willing to give up your dignity for the sake of money?
Soon, the Prime Minister's carriage galloped towards Yu Jiuer.
Yu Jiuer was ready to rush out, but before she could do so, she saw a sudden flash in front of her and someone rushed forward before her.
He was risking his life, making her feel inferior to him!
However, the man probably didn't find the right angle and was hit by the carriage and flew away.
The Prime Minister's guards immediately flew forward, caught the man with ease, and threw him into the bushes nearby, saying in disgust: "Next time you come, I'll chop off his hands and feet!"
He threw down a silver ingot and jumped on his horse. His movements were neat and quick, as if he had done it many times before.
Yu Jiuer stood there in a daze.
It turns out that this scam has been used by countless people?
At this time, the sound of horse hooves sounded behind her, and Jun Mo's tall figure appeared in front of her.
Yu Jiuer unconsciously became nervous, her tongue suddenly became knotted, and she swallowed her saliva before laughing and saying, "My lord, what a coincidence!"
"What are you doing here so early in the morning?" Jun Mo frowned. He had been too busy recently and neglected her. Now she was making trouble again?
"Watch the sunrise. This place is close to the lake. I'm just going to the lake to watch the sunrise!" In a panic, Yu Jiuer made up an excuse.
Jian Yi looked up at the sky. It was so cloudy that it was about to rain. Would there be a sunrise to enjoy?
Wei Zheng, who was standing behind Jun Mo, was looking at the Prime Minister's carriage going away, and said meaningfully, "I'm afraid your concubine Yugui is not interested in the bar. Why did you drag my Yutao into your evil deeds?"
Jun Mo was so imposing that Yu Jiuer surrendered immediately: "Okay! I admit that I came here to scam people. I wanted to blackmail the Prime Minister's shop!"
"Which shop?" Jun Mo got off the horse, a little anger appeared on his face. She wanted the shop not to come to him, but to find another man?
Yu Jiuer confessed honestly: "The shop on Jinghang Street!"
Before Jun Mo could speak, Wei Zheng said directly: "The prince has sold all the shops on that street, but I still have one there..."
"Really?" Before Wei Zheng finished speaking, Yu Jiuer jumped up, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I wasted so much time. It's time for you to pay Yu Tao for the betrothal gift!"
Yu Tao's face immediately turned red when she heard this: "Miss Jiu, why are you involving me? I'm not married to him!"
"Don't make any noise, I'm fighting for your interests." Yu Jiuer became shameless and didn't recognize any relatives.
Then he continued to say to Wei Zheng: "I didn't expect you, Wei Zheng, are quite rich! Tell me, should we give the shop as an advance betrothal gift to Yu Tao's family? We, Yu Tao, won't marry a miser!"
Wei Zheng muttered, "How can I be as rich as the prince? Why don't I see you asking the prince for a betrothal gift?"
Jun Mo was also shot while lying down, and glared at Wei Zheng fiercely.
Wei Zheng was so frightened that he jumped off his horse and stamped his feet, saying, "Is it not enough for me to give it to you?"
