Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Chapter 537 Waiting for the return of the prince in the snow

Author: Yuan An

Sure enough, as soon as night fell, it started snowing again in Kyoto.

Seeing the snowflakes falling, Chu Yinyin couldn't help but think of the years when she was at the border, where life was worse than death.

She is a little afraid of snow. Compared with snow, she prefers thunderstorms on summer nights.

"Your Majesty, today the Minister of Civil Affairs sent someone to hand over a list to Master."

"Well, I want to give it to my king tomorrow."

The voices of Zhao Shun and Murong Duan came from outside the door, and Chu Yinyin's heartbeat instantly accelerated a lot.

"Your Majesty..."

When Zhao Shun entered, Chu Yinyin was standing on the stone steps inside the door, wearing thin clothes.

"Why are you here?" Zhao Shun asked.

Chu Yinyin saluted, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to Your Majesty."

Her voice was trembling, probably because she had stood in the snow for so long.

"Let's go to Jiaheju."

After Zhao Shun said that, he strode towards the direction of Jiahe Residence.

Chu Yinyin smiled and followed quickly.

After arriving at Jiahe Residence, the boy poured a cup of hot tea for Chu Yinyin. Zhao Shun sat at the desk and picked up a pile of official documents.

"What's going on, princess? Just tell me." Zhao Shun said.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother called me today and said she wanted to make the decision for me. She also arranged for two maids and an older nun to come and help me," Chu Yinyin said.

Zhao Shun nodded, "Well, I know, is there anything else?"

"On the way back home, I also met the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince... seems to have discovered my identity." Chu Yinyin said.

"What did he say?" Zhao Shun asked.

"The prince said... that my body is a bit strange," Chu Yinyin said.

Zhao Shun opened the official document in his hand, thought about it and said, "Okay, you go back first."

"Your Majesty, I am worried...I am worried that I will cause trouble for you, but I cannot refuse the Queen Mother's kindness...I am also afraid that Your Majesty will dislike me because of this," Chu Yinyin said.

"You don't have to pay attention to these things, just let nature take its course," Zhao Shun said.

Chu Yinyin stood up and asked: "My lord, do you hate my concubine?"

"Why do I hate you?" Zhao Shun asked.

Chu Yinyin was slightly startled, "Because... I always cause you trouble."

Zhao Shun chuckled lightly, "This is not a big trouble. You don't need to take it to heart. Just go back first."

"Um...I take my leave."

When she left Jiaheju, Chu Yinyin had a smile on her face, as if the ice and snow outside were no longer so cold.

Mengying looked at her and smiled, saying: "Princess, what did the prince say to you? To make you so happy?"

"He didn't say anything, but I was just happy."

Chu Yinyin looked back at Jiaheju, and a warm current seemed to flow through her heart.

This was the first time that the prince smiled at her.

Perhaps, in the future, she can always see the prince's smile and become a woman loved by the prince.

…

Jiahe stayed inside, Zhao Shun put down his pen, stood up and left the study.

Outside the study, Murong Duangang brought a bowl of soup from the dining room and asked: "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

"Where else can we go? To Jialanju." Zhao Shun said.

"What should I do with this soup?" Murong Duan asked.

"Thank you."

…

Jia Lan was in the middle, and Shen Qinglan was eating. After Zhao Shun came in, he sat down directly in front of her and served himself a bowl of porridge.

"Your Majesty, don't you have some official business to deal with today?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"I don't want to deal with it anymore. The official work will never be finished." Zhao Shun said.

Shen Qinglan chuckled, picked up a shrimp ball and placed it on the plate in front of Zhao Shun.

"The one from Jiafangju went to Zening Hall today, did you know?"

After Zhao Shun finished speaking, he picked up the shrimp balls on the plate and put them into his mouth.

"I know, but what can I do if I know? That is the Queen Mother's will. Could it be that I stopped people from letting them go? I also know that the Queen Mother sent two young and beautiful maids and a stewardess.

She said she wanted to help the princess, so she followed her back to the palace. The queen mother clearly wanted to embarrass me, but fortunately I didn't take it seriously," Shen Qinglan said.

"I just returned home, and Chu Yinyin was waiting at the door, saying she had something to tell me," Zhao Shun said.

"Is she going to talk about the Queen Mother summoning her to the palace?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"No, she said that she met Brother Wang on the way back to the palace, and said that Brother Wang saw that she was not the real Xiao Qianning." Zhao Shun said.

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Zhao Yi and Xiao Qianning once slept in the same bed, so it's not surprising that they recognized each other. But I do find it a bit strange, why didn't Prince Xiao recognize his daughter? His favorite daughter is not

Is it Xiao Qianning?"

"When Chu Yinyin was in the Xiao Kingdom, she always complained of illness and didn't go out much. In addition, King Xiao had been busy with the war between the two countries and didn't pay much attention to these things. Chu Yinyin and Xiao Qianning just looked similar.

, their personalities are very different. With Brother Wang's insight, it is easy to detect this matter, but he has no evidence. Without evidence, no one dares to say that the Princess Xiao in the Regent's Palace is not Xiao Qianning." Zhao Shun

road.

"As long as Chu Yinyin doesn't admit it and the real Xiao Qianning is not discovered, Chu Yinyin will always be the princess of the Xiao Kingdom." Shen Qinglan said.

"That's right."

Zhao Shun nodded, picked up the porridge bowl and drank a spoonful of porridge.

Shen Qinglan took a bite of the rice cake and said, "My lord, what do you think the Queen Mother said to Chu Yinyin today?"

"Mostly... I just want to win over Chu Yinyin to compete with you," Zhao Shun said.

"I think so too. The Queen Mother has really tried her best to make you and I at odds," Shen Qinglan said.

Zhao Shun raised the corners of his lips and said, "Yes, since I became the regent, the Queen Mother has never given up on placing her people in the garden."

Shen Qinglan took another bite of the rice cake and then had an idea in her mind.

Zhao Shun saw her eyes rolling and asked with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"

"Why don't we let the Queen Mother get her wish for once and save us so much trouble," Shen Qinglan said.

Zhao Shun's face turned cold, "What's your bad idea? Are you willing to do it if the Queen Mother wants me and Chu Yinyin to have a child?"

"That's not what I meant..." Shen Qinglan sighed softly and said, "What I mean is that the prince might as well just show it off and save the Queen Mother from having to worry about it all the time."

Zhao Shun didn't say anything, and Shen Qinglan said again: "Why don't I just pretend that the couple is at odds and go back to my parents' house for two days."

"If you want to go back to your parents' house, just say so." Zhao Shun said.

Shen Qinglan smiled and said nothing, drank a few mouthfuls of porridge, and then said: "Since I ascended the throne today, the Queen Mother has never given up the throne of the Sixth Highness. If this continues, she herself will collapse. I look at it,

The Queen Mother has aged very quickly in recent years, and there are more and more gray hairs on her temples."

Zhao Shun nodded, "Yes, my aunt is stubborn and refuses to let it go. She has caused so many troubles over the years, and your Majesty, the Queen, and I have never cared about anything."

"It's not an option to continue like this. Why not... why not think of a way to make the Queen Mother give up." Shen Qinglan said.

"Your Majesty has been on the throne for so long, and the court has become more and more stable. The Queen Mother should have given up long ago, but she has never given up. This matter is not that easy." Zhao Shun said.

Shen Qinglan lowered his head again, "Actually, it's not that difficult."

"What good idea do you have?" Zhao Shun asked.

"I'm afraid this method will take a little more effort and require the cooperation of Your Majesty, the Queen, and all the ministers." Shen Qinglan said.

Zhao Shun thought for a while, breathed a long sigh of relief, then looked at her and said, "I understand what you mean. I will discuss it with Your Majesty later. If you want to make a big show, you need a suitable opportunity."

"Don't be anxious, let's take a long-term approach," Shen Qinglan said.

"Um."
