Astute Princess: Married to be the Empress Novel - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Princess Jingxian Prefecture
Don’t ask her why she could understand. There was a reason. In modern times, one of her hall masters was a Mongolian. She had stayed in Mongolia for two years, so she could listen to simple words. The words spoken by these people were very similar to Mongolian, so she guessed that she couldn’t speak.

The shopkeeper finally came to a realization and said with a face full of gratitude, “Thank you, Miss. I will instruct the clerk to do it again.” The shopkeeper hurriedly called the waiter and instructed him to remove the dishes and recook them. He also followed him downstairs.

At this moment, the person on the opposite side asked in the language of the Great Wei, “Can you understand what we’re saying?” Ying Ran looked over. Mom, it was really pleasing to the eye. Ying Ran couldn’t help but read,

“White skin than snow, black hair like a demon.

Lang Ri Yue gathered his eyebrows and gathered the wind and clouds.

The Spring Immortal wasn’t like this, and the Moon God should be invisible.

One day, Feng Ao went to Three Purities with his wings inserted. ”

Well, such a man is poisonous, so we must stay away from him. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even know how she died. Her lethality was too strong. If Fu Yingran hadn’t seen many beautiful men before, she would have become a flower addict now.

When that person heard Ying Ran’s words to himself, he frowned slightly. Seeing that he did not like it, Fu Yingran quickly came back to his senses and replied, “I can understand a few simple words, but I can’t say much.” It was good for such a man to appreciate it. She didn’t want to drive flies all day long.

“Oh.” The man answered casually and stopped talking.

She, Fu Yingran, is also very proud. If you don’t want to talk to me, I won’t necessarily like you much. So she nodded to him and said goodbye. She turned around and left.

The man only raised his eyes to look at her and didn’t say anything.

Fu Yingran took Cui’er and Jin’er out of the restaurant and went to the west of the city. She had to visit her imperial daughter’s mansion. Speaking of which, she had never been to the imperial daughter’s mansion before.

Hence, the master and servant turned left and right for a long time. Finally, they found her imperial daughter’s mansion. Looking at the deed in their hands, Ying Ran’s heart burst into tears silently. Who had seen it before and wanted to ask people all the way back to her mansion? The three of them raised their heads and looked at the plaque on the door. The words “Princess Jingxian’s Mansion” were boundless and majestic. It was indeed her father’s ink treasure.

Cui Er hurriedly knocked on the door excitedly. Who knew that the servant who opened the door was new? She had never seen her master before. She only opened the door and asked, “Who are you looking for?”

Cui Er couldn’t react for a moment. She returned to her mansion and was asked who she was looking for. Wasn’t this the funniest joke?

Fu Yingran silently walked forward and showed the jade pendant hanging in front of his chest to the servant. The servant saw Jing Xian on the jade pendant and without saying a word, directly opened the door and said, “Master, please come inside.” Then, he closed the door and silently followed behind Fu Yingran.

Fu Yingran turned to look at him and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s your name? When did you come to the imperial daughter’s mansion?”

“Master, this servant is called Xiang Zi. Flying Xiang, this servant arrived at the imperial daughter’s mansion three days ago.”

“En, how many people are there in the manor now? Who is in charge?” This had to be asked clearly. What if there were too many people and they couldn’t afford to raise them? She is now an unemployed vagrant. With the shop given to her by her mother, she can only feed ten people at most.

“Master, there are a total of eight people in the manor. Apart from this servant, there are also three servants guarding the manor. There are also Chun Tao, Xia He, Qiu Ju, Dong Mei, and four maids cleaning the house. Right now, Chun Tao and Xia He are the ones who make the decision.” Xiang Zi answered honestly.

Ying Ran looked at Xiang Zi. He was indeed an honest man, so he instructed him, “Go and call everyone over. Everyone, meet up to prevent you from not recognizing him next time.” She didn’t want such a thing to happen again.

Xiang Zi bowed and turned around to call for help. Ying Ran could not help but calculate in his heart that there were eight people in the manor, plus the three of them, and Mammy Yang. There were a total of twelve of them. The pressure was a little high, but they could still withstand it.

Ying Ran silently thought in his heart, should he start another industry? Although he didn’t need to be rich and noble, he should at least have enough food and clothing.

Xiang Zi did things very quickly. Not long after, everyone arrived. The four maids came from Prince Duan’s Mansion in spring, summer, autumn and winter. They were originally the maids of the Orchid Garden, so they were quite familiar with each other. The four servants, however, were all new and looked quite honest.

“What are their names? How old are they this year? Tell me about it. In the future, everyone will be a family. It’s better to address each other as well, so that we don’t get to know each other too strangely.” Ying Ran saw Chun Tao bring a chair over, so she sat down impolitely, and a few maids stood behind her quietly. Ying Ran looked at them with a gratified expression. Indeed, it was better to be on her own.

At this time, the four servants also began to declare themselves, “This servant, Xiang Zi, is nineteen years old this year.” “This servant, Ye Hua, is twenty years old this year.” “This servant is Ye Feng. He is eighteen years old this year. He is Ye Hua’s younger brother.” “This servant, Chen Hu, is 25 years old this year.”

“Very well, “I am Fu Yingran. You already know the four of you. These two are my eldest maids, Cui’er and Jin’er. I will take Mammy Yang over in two days. She is my nurse. In the future, the Imperial Daughter’s Mansion and the outer courtyard will be under Chen Hu’s charge, and the inner courtyard will be under Mammy Yang’s control. If there is anything important, you must obtain my consent before you can do it.” Fu Yingran was originally used to being the boss, so there was no doubt about his courage to speak and his ability to handle matters.

Everyone replied in unison, “Yes, Imperial Daughter, servants, remember.”

Then Fu Yingran said, “There are only so many people in the manor now. Everyone, work hard. I will recruit more people when conditions permit. Alright, let’s do this today. Let’s disperse.”

“Yes, Imperial Daughter.” After saying that, everyone left one after another. After everyone left, Fu Yingran stood up and said, “Chun Tao, I’ll leave the imperial daughter’s mansion to you in these two days. We’ll be staying here in two days.”

“Yes, Imperial Daughter. This servant will take good care of Imperial Daughter’s Mansion.” Chun Tao swore.

“Jin’er, Cui’er, let’s go back.” Originally, she could have lived directly in the imperial daughter’s mansion, There was no need to go back to Prince Jing’s mansion. However, Prince Jing was still her senior brother. Although she couldn’t marry him, she couldn’t just watch as he was plotted. She had to go back and talk to him properly. Besides, she couldn’t alert Imperial Concubine Shu and the others. So, she decided to stay in Prince Jing’s mansion for a few days and see what happened.

When the master and servant walked all the way back to Prince Jing’s mansion, it was already dark, so Ying Ran directly went back to Luo Hua Pavilion and did not ask where Prince Jing was. However, as soon as she sat down, Yan’er hurriedly reported, “Imperial Concubine Ping is not well. In the afternoon, Your Highness suddenly fainted in the Autumn Moon Pavilion. He hasn’t woken up yet. Go and take a look.”

Ying Ran was shocked. She thought that it was over. She had already made her move, so she hurriedly instructed Cui’er, “Hurry up and go to the Prince Duan’s Mansion to find my eldest brother and second brother and tell them about this place.”

Then she turned around and asked Yan’er, “What exactly happened? Wasn’t it fine when I left?” As Ying Ran spoke, he walked out and asked, “Where is Senior Brother now? Who is in charge of Prince Jing’s Manor now?”

“Imperial Concubine Ping, your highness and your highness are still in the Autumn Moon Pavilion. The Autumn Moon Pavilion is already under control. You are not allowed to enter or leave. It is up to Steward Wang to decide in the manor. Seeing that you are back, Steward Wang will ask this servant to invite you over to discuss it.” After Fu Yingran heard this, he couldn’t help but think in his heart that the people from Prince Jing’s Mansion were quite cautious and knew how to control the scene. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if he let the news leak out.

Ying Ran saw that Yan’er was about to leave after she finished speaking. After thinking for a while, she stopped her and said, “Come back and come with me to see Steward Wang.” Ying Ran stopped Yan’er when she saw her eyes dodge. There must be a spy in Prince Jing’s Mansion now. Anyone could be suspected, and even if there was a trace of suspicion, he couldn’t let her off.

When Ying Ran and the others arrived at the Autumn Moon Pavilion, the manor guards surrounded the entire courtyard. Ying Ran directly walked in. Butler Wang’s face was cold as he sat on a chair. Prince Jing was lying on the bed, and the manor doctor was surrounded by the bed. He was helpless.

Seeing Ying Ran walk in, Steward Wang seemed to have found the backbone. He quickly stood up and said, “Imperial Concubine Ping, you’re back. Your highness suddenly fainted in the afternoon and hasn’t woken up yet. What do you think we should do?”

Ying Ran looked at Prince Jing on the bed with a worried expression. She knew that Prince Jing was probably the same as the original owner. Back then, she had coincidentally revived her soul. Where could she find a soul to revive him? It seemed that she could only think of a way from Sun Shuyuan.

So she looked at Butler Wang and asked, “Where is Sun Shuyuan now? And the people she brought, are they all in charge?”

Fortunately, Butler Wang had always been paying attention to Sun Shuyuan. He knew that Prince Jing had an accident in Autumn Moon Pavilion, so he controlled everyone who had connections with Sun Shuyuan. Now that he heard Fu Yingran’s question, he honestly replied, “This servant has already controlled the princess in the side room. The maids she brought are also under control.”
