Shen Chenxi was confused and asked, "Sister, what do you mean?"

Shen Muyun lowered his voice and said: "Princess Yongle is different from Jiao Yue. She can't be a concubine, nor can she be a concubine. However, there is only one position for the head wife. When the time comes, I won't be the one who is anxious."

Shen Chenxi scratched his head: "But Gu Qingyan refuses to divorce you. I don't know what he plans to do. Could it be that he wants to divorce you?"

Shen Muyun lowered her long crow-feather eyelashes and said, "I think Princess Yongle wants to know this question more than I do. Let's take it step by step."

After saying that, Shen Muyun raised his eyes, looked at Shen Chenxi pretending to be relaxed, and asked, "Where is the house you like?"

Shen Chenxi suppressed her complicated thoughts, steeled herself, and said, "Let's go, I've chosen two places. You can see which one you like more. By the way, do you want to pick up your friend?"

Shen Muyun smiled and said: "She has not returned to Beijing at this time, so she has given full authority to me."

The three of them rode a carriage and sped towards the city.

Cui Tieniu asked worriedly: "The Lord Yongle is sincere towards the Crown Prince and may hurt you."

Shen Muyun bit his lip and said decisively: "I'm not afraid that she will be tempted. Only if she is tempted will I have a chance."

There was deep worry in Cui Tieniu's starry peach blossom eyes, and he lowered his head thoughtfully.

Shen Muyun looked at two houses.

One of the houses was too close to Prince Jing's Mansion. Shen Chenxi thought it would be more convenient for Shen Muyun to communicate with his friends.

Shen Muyun held his forehead, regretted that he had not explained anything, and rejected this point without hesitation.

Another house is located next to the bustling Changfeng Street in the capital. About a mile from Changfeng Street into Yuhe Hutong, you will find the gate of the house.

There is only one family in this alley.

The house opposite is larger. The gate opens on Changfeng Street. There is a corner gate in the alley. The corner gate is closed tightly. It seems to be abandoned.

It can be said that you will be prosperous when you go out, and you will be quiet when you enter.

The house was entered three times, and each one was small. It was an inconspicuous ordinary house in the capital, but there was something hidden inside. The house was new, exquisitely designed, and very elegant.

Shen Muyun was very satisfied. The original owner of the house was a small official in the capital. After becoming an official, he returned to his hometown to live and wanted to sell the house.

Shen Muyun asked about the price. The original owner asked for 9000 taels. Shen Muyun returned the counter-offer and signed the contract for the house for 200 taels.

When signing the deed, Shen Muyun wore a curtain hat, used the name of the fake identity she had created originally, and entrusted a clerk from the dental shop to go to the government to help her change it into a formal house deed.

Cui Tieniu didn't know and thought that Shen Muyun bought this house for a friend.

After finishing this matter, Shen Muyun was extremely happy and wanted to treat Cui Tieniu and Shen Chenxi to a big meal.

But Cui Tieniu said: "You guys eat first, I'll go do something and I'll be here soon."

Shen Muyun took Shen Chenxi to wait in the private room of the restaurant.

After about a stick of incense, Cui Tieniu came back, bringing a girl behind him.

The girl wore a bronze mask, covering most of her face.

Cui Tieniu closed the door of the private room and said to the girl: "From now on, she will be your master, you must protect her."

The girl stepped forward, saluted Shen Muyun, and called, "Master."

Shen Muyun suppressed the surprise in his heart and raised his eyes to look at Cui Tieniu.

Cui Tieniu said: "Her name is Hua Ying. I rescued her accidentally. She knows some skills. I thought that if she followed you, her life would be better. Please help take care of her."

Shen Muyun couldn't help being surprised.

Huaying, this name appears in the novel.

She was rescued by Cui Tieniu and was very loyal to Cui Tieniu. She was a dead warrior trained by Cui Tieniu and was very powerful in martial arts.

Later, Cui Tieniu gave Hua Ying to Jiao Yue and asked Hua Ying to protect Jiao Yue's safety.

Shen Muyun was shocked, Cui Tieniu actually gave her the jacaranda at this time?

Shen Chenxi couldn't help but stood up and hugged Cui Tieniu, almost bursting into tears with gratitude: "Cui Shou Lian, I have to say, you treat me so well! You treat my relatives as your own! You are better than my biological brother. It’s all very thoughtful.”

Cui Tieniu was not used to it and wanted to push Shen Chenxi away.

Shen Chenxi hugged Cui Tieniu for a long time before he was willing to let go.

Shen Muyun asked Hua Ying: "Why are you wearing a mask?"

Hua Ying's eyes dimmed and she said, "I have scars on my face. In order to avoid scaring others, I wore a mask."

Shen Muyun knew the answer, it was written like this in the novel.

Shen Muyun comforted her softly and said, "I know some medical skills. If you believe me, I will go back and help you prepare some medicine. Maybe you can remove the scars."

Hua Ying saluted: "Thank you, Master."

Cui Tieniu said: "Prince Concubine, you have time to ask someone to help her get a body deed."

Shen Muyun asked Hua Ying: "Are you willing to sign the deed of sale?"

Hua Ying glanced at Shen Muyun and said, "If you follow the master, I am willing."

Shen Muyun knew that Hua Ying was loyal and capable, so he smiled and said: "I will pay you according to the ratio of Pinellia ternata and Wanqiu. It is also two taels of silver a month, is that okay?"

Hua Ying was born in poverty, and when she heard this, she was surprised to thank Shen Muyun.

Shen Muyun started to ask people to serve food.

Shen Chenxi suddenly put down his chopsticks and said, "Sister, I don't want to be a soldier anymore."

Shen Muyun's face darkened and he said, "Why? You can't do everything without starting at the end."

Shen Chenxi lowered his head and said dullly: "It takes a long time to leave as a soldier. I don't worry about you staying alone in the capital."

Shen Muyun's heart felt warm and her nose was a little sore, and she said, "You are the one I worry about the most."

Shen Muyun could just leave. Now that she had money and medical skills, she could live a good life incognito no matter where she went.

However, Shen Chenxi was simple-minded and had no career, and the Zhongyong Palace was surrounded by wolves. Shen Muyun was worried that Shen Chenxi would be plotted against her and die like in the novel.

Then Shen Muyun completely lost his family.

If Shen Chenxi can support Uncle Zhongyong's house, Shen Muyun will have her family to rely on and a way out.

After a moment of calm, Shen Muyun asked, "What are your plans?"

Shen Chenxi became excited again and said, "Sister, I am from an uncle's house after all. I want to rely on my family background to join the Jinyi Guard as a servant."

Shen Muyun's eyes lit up.

The imperial guards, especially the imperial guards, mostly choose outstanding children from official families. These people will not easily have other thoughts for the sake of their family.

So, Shen Muyun said: "Then you try it."

Shen Chenxi was full of confidence: "I come from an uncle's house, I have a clean family background, I have an upright appearance, and I am in good health. I am not afraid of martial arts competitions. I should be a sure shot at joining the Jinyi Guards."

Shen Muyun glanced at him sideways: "Don't underestimate the enemy. Practice hard and prepare well."

After dinner, Shen Muyun returned to Baoguo Temple and was very surprised to see Gu Qingyan covered in injuries.

Gu Qingyan said angrily: "Your brother actually beat me! If it weren't for your sake, I would definitely report him to the government and let the government arrest him!"
