Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Chapter 259 Qinxian Palace Visits the Regent

After hearing what Zhao Bai said, Zhao Shun chuckled lightly.

No wonder the emperor was so worried that he made him the regent. These two highnesses really couldn't stand up to the wall.

"His Highness Sixth Prince came over yesterday and said the same thing to you," Zhao Shun said.

"Really? What should we do...Brother Shun Wang, he is the legitimate son, he is more suitable than me!" Zhao Bai said seriously.

"So... Your Highnesses, why don't you seize the time to give birth to more grandsons for the late emperor, so that they can replace you and inherit the throne."

Shen Qinglan walked into the Qinxian Palace wearing a dark-white brocade dress. Zhao Shun raised his head, unable to believe his eyes.

He hadn't seen his bride for a month, and he thought she would hate him, but he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to visit Ouchi.

"That's right! I have to discuss it with my sixth brother!" Zhao Bai stood up and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law Wang is here! Sit down quickly."

Zhao Shun coughed lightly and gave him a wink.

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Brother Wang and Wife Wang are leaving."

After Zhao Bai finished speaking, he left Qinxian Hall with a smile.

"Sisi..."

Zhao Shun put down his pen, stood up and walked to her side.

Shen Qinglan held a food box in his hand, which contained some snacks and a cup of tonic soup.

"I heard you were injured, how are you doing now?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"It's okay, it's just a minor injury." Zhao Shun smiled.

"Small injury? Then why do you still look so bad? Since it is a minor injury, why haven't you recovered after so long?" Shen Qinglan said.

"I've been busy with the late emperor's funeral and court matters during this period, so I haven't had a good rest. By the way, Sisi, I have dispatched hundreds of guards in our mansion. Just ask Ji Fan to arrange their work. Also,

You told me before that you wanted to open a door on the wall between Linyuan and Shen's Mansion. Now that you are the mistress of Linyuan, you can arrange these things yourself," Zhao Shun said.

"Not only do I want to open the door between the two mansions, I also want to build a new courtyard in Linyuan, right next to our Shen mansion, and name it Jialanju. From now on, you will still live in Jiaheju, and I, the princess, will live in Jialanju.

Jialanju." Shen Qinglan said.

Zhao Shun took Shen Qinglan's hand, and Shen Qinglan rolled her eyes at him and pulled her hand away.

"What are you doing? Don't do anything, I haven't forgiven you yet!"

"Then when are you going to forgive me?"

"Let's see how you behave. Okay, I've delivered the things and I've seen the people, so I'm going back home first."

Just as Shen Qinglan was about to leave, Zhao Shun chased after her and held her hand again.

"I'm sorry for not being able to accompany you to the Mother's Return Banquet. Once Ouchi is pretty busy, I will bring a gift to apologize to the elders of the Shen Mansion."

"In the past, I was always afraid that my second brother would work too hard and hurt his body, so I often persuaded him to get up and walk more often to stretch his muscles. Now I will give you these words." Shen Qinglan said.

"I promise you that I will take good care of myself. Sisi, you have worked hard during this time," Zhao Shun said.

"Then can you promise that from now on, I will be the regent princess comfortably and not worry about anything else?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Zhao Shun smiled and nodded, "Okay, definitely."

-

Shen Qinglan came out of the palace and went directly back to Linyuan.

At the gate of the garden, Zhao Yi seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"County Lord, long time no see."

"Although my title is still the county head, when I marry, I will obey my husband, and please call me younger sister-in-law or regent princess in the future."

Zhao Yi chuckled and followed Shen Qinglan into Linyuan.

"I know there are a lot of things going on in Linyuan now, but I was ordered by my father to come here to make trouble. The Prince Regent is busy with official duties and has been living in Qinxian Palace in Da Nei. During his wedding, there was a fire in Linyuan. I wonder if the Princess Regent is there. Find out the cause of the fire?" Zhao Yi asked.

"In Shen Mansion, debris has been piled up in the back house of the side yard for a long time, and it just caught fire due to dryness."

Shen Qinglan did not dare to say the specific cause of the fire. After all, she had not caught the person who set the fire. If Zhao Yi used the order of Prince Heng to investigate on behalf of Zhao Shun, then she would not be able to evade it.

"I see. By the way, my father asked me to help see if there is anything that needs help with the renovation of the Linyuan." Zhao Yi said again.

"Don't worry about it, Your Majesty. I, Shen Mansion, are a merchant. My natal family has already helped me with the supplies and craftsmen needed for the repairs in the courtyard," Shen Qinglan said.

"That's very good. It's better to stay with a rich Yue family and not use your own money for anything." Zhao Yi said.

Although his words were mocking Zhao Shun, Shen Qinglan didn't care and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what you said is absolutely right."

Zhao Yi looked at Shen Qinglan and whispered: "The Princess Regent seems to be even more beautiful since she became a real woman."

Shen Qinglan secretly clenched her fists. It was all the good deeds done by this guy, and he actually dared to mention it in front of her!

"Thank you."

Shen Qinglan quickened his pace, and Zhao Yi followed with a smile.

Near Jiaming Ju, hundreds of craftsmen worked day and night to rebuild the courtyard.

Zhao Yi covered the smell of paint with his sleeves and sighed: "As expected of the number one merchant, the efficiency is indeed unmatched by others."

"Your Majesty has given you too much praise and spent enough money, so it will be faster to finish the work. Now that the Crown Prince has seen it, can he go back to deliver the report to his father?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Zhao Yi nodded, "That's okay. It's just that I, the king's brother, came to my brother's house and couldn't even have a cup of tea. Isn't it a bit unreasonable?"

Shen Qinglan resisted the urge to beat him out with a big stick, "I thought the prince was involved in affairs, so I was negligent. Please forgive me, prince, please come with me."

In Ruoyuan Hall, the little girls of the mansion brought tea and snacks.

Zhao Yi drank tea comfortably and looked at the scenery in the mansion, looking very contented.

"Since the late emperor rewarded this mansion in Linchuan, this is my second visit." Zhao Yi said.

Shen Qinglan took a sip of tea and said, "The prince is in the household department and has many things to do, so he has no time to spare."

Zhao Yi asked with a smile, "You actually know that I am in the Ministry of Household Affairs. I thought that the princess knew nothing about me except my identity."

"I heard my regent mention it. The prince always said that you two brothers had a very good relationship when you were young. Even though you are not often together now, you still have a deep love for each other." Shen Qinglan said.

"Really? This really surprises me."

Zhao Yi looked at her directly, not shying away at all. Yan'er and Fu'er beside him couldn't stand it anymore.

"Of course, why should I lie to the prince?" Shen Qinglan said.

"I don't think our brothers had a close relationship when they were children. Since Princess Xianheng passed away, Prince Shun has rarely spoken to our father and son," Zhao Yi said.

"We?" Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow. Zhao Yi's words put himself and Prince Heng on a united front. It sounded like Zhao Shun was an outsider.
