Chapter 215 Undercurrent
Upon hearing this, Butler Yun was extremely excited. Did this mean that Miss Su was now willing to care about his young master?

This is really great.

His young master has been listless these past few days, looking like he has something on his mind.

Moreover, the young master is extremely concerned about anything related to Miss Su.

They all knew that the young master had fallen for Miss Su.

When a person has feelings in their heart, things are different.

The entire Yun family was very grateful to Miss Su. The situation was so critical that, in the past, the young master would have definitely sacrificed himself.

In the end, it was Miss Su who saved the young master, and also saved the entire Yun family.

So, Butler Yun looked at Miss Su with gratitude in his eyes.

He was extremely respectful to Su Muyao.

Butler Yun replied truthfully, "Young Master has rested these past few days, but he seems to be feeling a little unwell. The family physician couldn't find anything wrong. We originally wanted to ask Miss Su to take a look at him, but Young Master was afraid of causing Miss Su any trouble and felt that Miss Su needed to rest, so he didn't want us to disturb her."

"I just happened to learn that Miss Su has come to the city today, so this old servant came here."

Thinking of the integrity of the Yun family, Su Muyao felt only respect.

She said, "I'd like to trouble Butler Yun to make this trip in person. If there's anything else, just have someone pass on a message."

In fact, Su Muyao had visited the City Lord's Mansion several times before, and those visits were to treat Yun Qinglan's health, so the Yun family members were probably familiar with her.

She felt a little embarrassed to make the housekeeper make the trip herself every time.

Butler Yun said respectfully, "How can that be? I don't trust the people below to do things properly. I'll come to fetch Miss Su myself."

"Everyone is incredibly envious that this old servant has been able to get this job."

"Miss Su, please get into the carriage."

The old man said that Miss Su is a benefactor to the Yun family, and it is an honor for the entire Yun family to be able to get close to Miss Su.

Su Muyao nodded and got into the carriage, with Steward Yun driving it himself.

Upon arriving at the Yun family home, Su Muyao first went to see Old Master Yun.

Grandpa Yun personally stood to greet Su Muyao.

"Greetings, Lord Yun."

"Miss Su, there's no need to be so polite. Please sit down. You saved Qinglan, and I don't know how to properly thank you..."

Grandpa Yun excitedly said a lot of things, all expressing his gratitude to Su Muyao.

After exchanging pleasantries, Old Master Yun handed Su Muyao his memorial to the court, saying, "Since I haven't seen you, I wrote a memorial to the court as is customary. If nothing unexpected happens, the court will respond in a few days."

"If we're going to reward you for your contributions, you might have to go back to Beast King City."

"However, the Empress is not in good health now, and the princes are fighting for the position, so there are undercurrents in Beast King City."

Su Muyao knew that the current empress had four sons and no daughters. After her four sons came of age, they were granted the title of king. However, since no crown prince had been appointed yet, the four princes were still living in the Beast Emperor City. The princes' sons and daughters were ranked according to the order of princes and princesses.

The princes and princesses were all around twenty years old.

Su Muyao's expression shifted, and she asked, "Is the Empress still not well?"

Actually, the reason why the original body was able to marry ten top-ranking and handsome beast husbands in the beginning was because the empress protected it.

Her father also went along with her wishes. Whenever she took a fancy to someone and that family was unwilling, her father would go directly to the palace to ask for an imperial decree to grant them marriage.

The empress could issue decrees directly.

She felt that the Empress seemed to always protect her father and her.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

It seems that after news of her father's defeat and death in battle reached the Beast King City, the Empress vomited blood, fell seriously ill, and went into a coma. The government then fell into the hands of several princes, who took the opportunity to frame her father for many crimes.

As a result, the Su family's property was seized, and she was exiled.

The entire Dongning Beast Kingdom was relatively stable under the Empress's rule; however, a change of dynasty would inevitably lead to bloodshed.

The situation is even more complicated, especially since no crown prince has been appointed yet. Old Master Yun said with a solemn expression, "I just received news that the Empress's health has improved recently, but she has not appeared in court."

Su Muyao was actually a little puzzled, "Why hasn't the Empress established an heir apparent?"

Grandpa Yun shook his head and said, "I don't know. In the past, many court officials submitted memorials, including aristocratic families who wanted the Empress to establish an heir, but the Empress suppressed them all and never mentioned the matter of establishing an heir."

"No one knows what the Queen is thinking."

This made Su Muyao suspicious.

However, in her memory, the Empress was indeed very good to her.

If there is a chance to heal the Queen's body, she should be able to have an extra layer of protection in Beast King City.

Grandpa Yun explained many things about Beast Emperor City, including matters in the imperial court, to Su Muyao in detail, so that she could prepare in advance.

As they were talking, servants from the mansion brought over some snacks.

Grandpa Yun said, "Miss Su, please try some of the pastries in the manor. They're freshly made and still warm."

Su Muyao looked at the pastries on the table. They looked very pretty, shaped like flowers.

Su Muyao didn't stand on ceremony and took a bite.

Grandpa Yun asked, "How is it?"

"Mmm, it's delicious, sweet but not cloying, and the texture is just right."

It's the texture she likes.

Grandpa Yun said with a smile, "Knowing that you were coming, Qinglan personally went into the kitchen to make some snacks, just in case they didn't suit your taste."

"It's noon now, Miss Su, why don't you stay at the manor for lunch? Qinglan has probably already prepared a table full of food."

"However, this old man can't have dinner with you. I have some things to take care of and need to go out for a bit."

Before Su Muyao could react, Grandpa Yun hurriedly left.

Su Muyao's heart stirred.

Did Yun Qinglan make these desserts herself?

He even cooked lunch himself?

I don't know how his health is.

Su Muyao was also getting restless and wanted to go take a look. With the help of the servants, she arrived at the kitchen.

They saw Yun Qinglan busy cooking in the kitchen. He was already handsome and refined, with his black hair loosely tied up and a few strands falling on his fair neck, adding to his casual and gentle appearance.

Even when he's cooking in the kitchen, every move he makes is so elegant.

It gives people a very soft and comfortable feeling.

Actually, when she was at home, she had seen Wen Nanxi and the others cook, and every move they made was pleasing to the eye.

But Yun Qinglan's aura was different from theirs; he gave people a refined and clear feeling, like a freehand painting.

Yun Qinglan was busy when he suddenly seemed to sense something. He turned around and saw Su Muyao standing at the door.

The sunlight shone on her, making her even more radiant and dazzling.

It made his heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help but want to get closer.

Yun Qinglan's clear, spring-like eyes flickered, and she smiled gently, a smile carrying the warmth of a spring breeze. "You...you've come."

Su Muyao rarely saw Yun Qinglan smile. In the past, he always had a cold and indifferent demeanor, as if he were detached from the world.

His smile now seems to dispel the gloom of the world, making people feel as if they are bathed in a spring breeze and warm their hearts.

Su Muyao smiled back and said, "Yes, the desserts you made are delicious."

Yun Qinglan was silent for a moment, his fingers clenched and unclenched at his sides. After a while, he spoke softly, "I'm glad you like it. I can make these things for you forever."
