Chapter 224: The maidservant beside Miss Wanyan has poor taste
After Yun Yin finished speaking, Pei Mochen suddenly stopped.
He turned his head slowly and said, "You have won. You have convinced me."
Yunyin clasped his hands together and complimented, "Master is wise!"
Pei Mochen turned around, looking unhappy: "Follow me back to your own yard."
As he walked, he kept looking back in the direction of the hot spring, his eyes full of reluctance.
Yunyin: "Master, do you want to go to the Shuiyan Pavilion now? Ding Ruolian will definitely be very happy to see you."
Pei Mochen frowned, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will let you marry Hongmei today."
He now got a headache whenever he thought of Ding Ruolian, and the joy he felt when he found Luo Luo a few days ago was almost gone.
He only lamented that women's beauty is ephemeral and men's original intentions are easily changed. But Pei Mochen did not doubt Ding Ruolian's identity.

Twelve days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Pei Yuxiao came to Prince Chen's Mansion.
He took all the maids from Jianjia Pavilion and only left Xiangqin to take care of daily chores by Mu Wanyan's side.
Mu Wanyan's patience with Pei Mochen was running out, but in order to arouse his suspicion, she could only force a smile and pretend to be respectful.
"Yan Yan, when did you become so close to my brother? How could you be willing to give Pei Yuxiao so many maids?" Pei Mochen sat upright on the lion chair in front of the hall, examining Mu Wanyan with a sharp gaze.
"Your Majesty can let me go, but I need Yanyan to give me a reason."
Mu Wanyan avoided the topic and just took out a pair of exquisite rabbit leather gloves and handed them to Pei Mochen.
"I happened to get a pair of top-quality rabbit skins, and I thought of Your Majesty. With this pair of gloves, Mo Chen's hands won't feel cold when he rides a horse and pulls the reins in winter."
"Yan Yan is so thoughtful." Pei Mochen's palm froze in mid-air, allowing Mu Wanyan to help him put on the gloves slowly.
The natural faint fragrance invaded Pei Mochen's nose like clear spring water. He couldn't help but take a step closer, wanting to be closer to him.
The big palms with thin calluses were wrapped in soft fur and felt warm.
Pei Mochen's heart was instantly distracted when he vaguely touched Mu Wanyan's smooth skin.
The corners of his lips, which were originally tense, relaxed, as if he had forgotten even the original topic.
He pinched Mu Wanyan's hand with his backhand, trying to pull her to sit on his lap, imitating the way men pamper women in storybooks, but Mu Wanyan cleverly avoided his move.
Mu Wanyan stepped aside and got to the point:
"My maid Fuzi has fallen in love with Qingfeng, the guard beside the crown prince. Hongxiu also has a secret crush on Jianming. There are also Luqin and Lengye, Liuli and Fengping... There are a total of four pairs of people who have expressed their feelings for each other."
She continued, "The prince is kind-hearted. When he asked me for favors, he saw that the maids around me were all smart and clever, so he showed mercy and planned to marry a girl from Xichang to each of his unmarried guards in the palace."
Pei Mochen frowned slightly. Are girls from Xichang so good? With so many outstanding young men, why don't you find a local from Dafeng?
For example, Yuzhu is a very good person. Although she has been demoted to a commoner, she is at least a child of a wealthy family and has been raised in pampered condition since childhood.
She is much better than the maids in Jianjia Pavilion.
Pei Yuxiao is short-sighted.
Mu Wanyan ignored Pei Mochen's expression and continued, "I saw that they all looked shy and happy, so I went with the flow and agreed to the prince's request."
She tried her best to make her expression look sincere when she spoke. In order to make Pei Mochen believe her completely, she let him hold her hand while freeing a few fingers to hold his.
She rubbed the back of Pei Mochen's hand lightly with her fingertips a few times, and his breathing instantly became heavier.
Mu Wanyan knew that he was both vicious and reckless, so she just smiled and said, "Mo Chen, Pei Yuxiao is your elder brother, I have to give him this face."
Pei Mochen raised his lips, "Yan Yan, there is no need to worry about him. This prince and the one in the East Palace... do not have a close relationship."
"Yan Yan, you don't have to give up your love for me. How can you be without someone close to you? I can..."
"Your Highness, please give me a few more people from your mansion. As long as they are trained by you, I will be satisfied." Mu Wanyan interrupted him, fearing that Pei Mochen would say something regretful.
The maids are already on their way to the East Palace, and nothing can go wrong at this time.
Pei Mochen's eyes flashed with a hint of pride, but he still pretended to be serious and asked: "Can Yanyan trust the nanny I arranged for you? Don't you dislike her?"
Mu Wanyan nodded firmly, "I believe in the prince's judgment!"
Pei Mochen was overjoyed and wanted to stand up and hug her, but he was afraid of scaring her, so he gave up.
Therefore, except Xiang Qin, all of Mu Wanyan's maids were arranged to live in Pei Yuxiao's mansion.
—
The East Palace, where Pei Yuxiao lives.
Pei Yuxiao values the people working under Mu Wanyan very much.
He called his personal guards and picked out dozens of unmarried young men.
And from among these bachelors, all the strong and handsome ones were selected for the little girls to see.
Xichang women are mostly reserved, while Dafeng men are bold and generous. Even so, when these maids saw those imposing young men, they couldn't help but blush, and the handkerchiefs in their hands were almost torn into pieces by the girls.
Fu An was watching this scene from the side and couldn't help wondering, "Master, these maids of Miss Wan Yan don't seem to have very good taste."
Pei Yuxiao turned his head, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, "Oh? What do you mean?"
