Chapter 433 The Duke’s wife visits Linyuan

Early the next morning, before Shen Qinglan got up, Yan'er hurriedly woke her up and directly raised the curtains.

"Princess, please wake up quickly, someone is coming from the Duke's Mansion!"

Shen Qinglan turned over and asked in a daze: "What Duke's Mansion...which one is it from?"

"It's the Yuan family of the Duke's Mansion who came in with posts and portraits a few days ago!" Yan'er said.

Shen Qinglan opened her eyes, "I really can't live in peace for a moment."

"Princess, please get up quickly, people have already arrived at the main hall of Jiahe Juju," Yan'er said.

"Quickly, change my clothes, wash my face, dress up..."

Shen Qinglan yawned after saying that. She was a little late looking at the portrait last night. She didn't expect that the Yuan family would come to the door so early in the morning.

"Hey, come quickly, come and freshen up the princess!" Yan'er ordered.

After struggling for nearly two-quarters of an hour, Shen Qinglan packed up and immediately rushed to Jiahe Residence.

On the way, Shen Qinglan asked: "Who is here from the Yuan family?"

"I heard from the housekeeper that it's the Duke's wife and his third daughter, named Yuan Jinyu. Princess, I'm afraid those who come are not good," Yan'er said.

Shen Qinglan chuckled lightly, "That's all, let's go and meet for a while. The soldiers will come to block it, and the water will come to cover it up."

When they arrived at the main hall of Jiahe Residence, after Shen Qinglan entered the door, the two female members of the Yuan family did not stand up to salute directly. Instead, they waited for her to sit down at the main seat before they stood up in a hurry without any respect.

"Meet the Princess Regent."

Shen Qinglan did not directly invite them to sit down, but said to the maid in Jiaheju: "Come here, bring a cup of hot tea for the Duke's wife and the young lady."

Since they were contemptuous of them, as the regent princess, she naturally couldn't lower her body and take the initiative to show kindness.

"cough……"

The Duke's wife cleared her throat, and Shen Qinglan raised his eyes to look at her and said, "You two are welcome, please take a seat."

"The Princess Regent got up very early. It is not easy for us, mother and daughter, to meet the Princess." said the Duke.

"I didn't expect that the Duke's wife and the young lady would come uninvited and without giving greeting cards in advance, which caught me off guard. But...after all, the Duke and Madam are the elders, and the younger ones are late today.

, please forgive me, madam." Shen Qinglan said.

The Duke's wife smiled awkwardly and said, "What the princess said is embarrassing."

At this time, the maid from Jiaheju brought new tea. Shen Qinglan slightly raised her lips and said with a smile: "The Duke's wife and young lady are here. I welcome them. You two don't have to be polite. If you have anything to say, just say it.

"

The Duke's wife glanced at Miss Yuan San and said: "Your sister and I have something to ask for, and it's not a big deal. For the princess, it's just a matter of words."

Shen Qinglan picked up the tea cup and did not ask further questions, just waiting for her to continue talking.

After a while, the Duke's wife glanced at her and continued to say with a smile: "A few days ago, our Duke Yuan's Mansion sent you your sister's portrait and post. Are you satisfied with it, Princess?"

"Madam, you are joking. How can I make the decision on such a big matter? I just screen it and give it to the elders to make the decision." Shen Qinglan said.

"But... I heard that the princess did not send the portraits of our three girls to the palace. Why?" asked the Duke's wife.

"Recently, I have been receiving hundreds of portraits every day. It is really beyond my ability, so the portraits will probably be a little later. Madam, please rest assured that the third lady of your house is gentle and pleasant, and she will definitely be selected."

Shen Qinglan said.

"When the princess said this, I knew it well. I wonder... could the princess send the portraits of our three girls first? In recent years, our three girls have been weak and sick, and have never met the Queen Mother. What the Queen Mother means is...

...I want to take this opportunity to meet him," said the Duke's wife.

"Really?" Shen Qinglan raised her eyebrows slightly, "I don't understand. Is there any necessary connection between sending the portrait of the third lady of your house to the palace first and the third lady meeting the Queen Mother?"

"The Queen Mother has been feeling unwell recently, and we don't want to bother her, so we also want the Queen Mother to see our girl's portrait first," said the Duke's wife.

Shen Qinglan nodded, "That's it. Madam, I have been feeling a little unwell recently. Where exactly are the portraits of the third lady? We can't look for them one by one. When we find them, we will naturally send them to them."

"

"Princess, the Queen Mother trusts you and leaves this matter to you, but you are so pushy. Isn't it bad?" the Duke's wife said again.

Shen Qinglan said nothing with a cold face. After a moment, she spoke: "So, the Duke's wife doesn't believe in this princess? I am young and indeed incompetent, but the Queen Mother trusts her and it is not easy to refuse her."

.Since the Duke’s wife has said so, how about I personally go and tell the Queen Mother that I will entrust this task to you? I believe that the Duke’s wife will be able to handle it decently."

After hearing this, the Duke's wife suddenly became timid and said quickly: "Princess...Princess, what are you talking about? How can I not believe you? Although you are young, you are very considerate in your affairs. No one in the entire Kyoto city knows this.

People don’t know. I’m just a minister, and I haven’t seen much of the world. Princess, don’t make fun of me.”

"Mrs. Guo Gong praised me. I was born in a merchant family and have never seen much of the world. Although my second brother is now an official, he is just an inconspicuous errand in the Ministry of Household Affairs. I don't have much experience.

But I also know that selecting a talent show for His Majesty is a big deal. You should not hide evil selfishly or be careless. Madam, do you think so?" Shen Qinglan said.

"Yes, yes, the princess said yes. I was the one who was rude. Princess, since you are not feeling well, we will not disturb your rest. I will leave." said the Duke of Guo.

"Madam, go slowly. I'm sorry that I, the princess, can't see you off."

The Duke's wife and Miss Yuan San left Linyuan in a hurry. On the way, the Duke's wife was always worried.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Yuan Jinyu asked.

The Duke's wife sighed, "This girl is really amazing."

"Mother is talking about the regent princess?" Yuan Jinyu asked.

"Who else could it be if she wasn't her? Look at her elegant demeanor, how does she look like a woman from a merchant family? It's not an exaggeration to say that she comes from a royal family. Although she didn't say anything harsh, she could say everything.

The key point is that your mother is also a smart person who can argue, but she can't even say a word." said the Duke of Guo.

Yuan Jinyu pursed her lips and said: "What... Mother is exaggerating too much. The regent princess is just more beautiful. How can she be worthy of being born in a noble family?"

"Shut up! Don't say anything!"

The Duke's wife sighed helplessly. This third girl of hers was still young. She had been supported and supported since she was a child, and she had no plans in mind. Now that she came to see Shen Qinglan in private, she found out about the relationship between her daughter and the current regent.

How big is the difference.

Thinking of this, she asked: "Yu'er, tell your mother, do you really want to enter the palace and become His Majesty's concubine?"
