Absolutely! My maid was reborn after time travel

Back at Wenlan Courtyard, the girls prepared bath water for Shen Qinglan, allowing her to take a comfortable bath. They also prepared fine tea and various fruits, which were neatly placed on the warm table.

A few times.

"It's better to go home!"

Shen Qinglan lay down in her favorite position and crossed her legs.

"Miss, you haven't been back for such a long time, we all miss you! We are looking forward to your return every day!" Fu'er said.

"That's good, you're finally back!" Xing'er said.

"Yes, miss, your favorite flowers are all in bloom. They must have known that you were coming back, so they bloomed just waiting for you to come back!" Guo'er said.

Shen Qinglan looked at them and smiled, "Stop standing around, sit down and chat with me."

With that said, she handed several plates of fruits to Fu'er, and they sat down at the round table.

"Miss, is it not difficult to provide disaster relief? Isn't it very hard?" Fu'er asked.

Shen Qinglan said while eating: "What's so difficult about this? It's definitely a bit harder, but it's better now. The successful completion of the task can be regarded as a name in the official's heart."

"The officials gave the order, but now that everything is over, will they be rewarded with many gold and silver treasures?" Xing'er said.

After taking a bath, Yan'er walked in and said, "Silly girl, what our Shen family is most in need of is silver. What's the use of having so many gold and silver treasures?"

"Sister Yan'er, sit down quickly." Fu'er quickly made room for Yan'er and sat aside.

"Then what will your Majesty reward?" Xing'er asked.

"I'll probably reward the eldest and second lords with a false position or something. Even though they won't have real power, they will still be given official robes," Yan'er said.

"Well, this is better. Our Shen Mansion is not short of treasures anyway!" Fu'er said.

"By the way, miss, I saw people from the Qi family here two days ago, and they seemed to be planning to propose marriage!" Guo'er said.

Shen Qinglan just took a sip of tea and quickly put down the teacup in her hand, "What? The Qi family? Which Qi family?"

"Who else is the Qi family? It's the Qi family on Beifeng Street! Miss, his family also cooperates with our family in the weaving business!" Guoer said.

"Oh my God, who is from the Qi family?" Shen Qinglan asked again.

The Qi family had many heirs, and she could not guess which of his sons came to propose marriage.

"This slave doesn't know very well..." Guoer replied.

Yan'er thought for a while and said: "The Qi family seems to have six sons, four are the concubine and two are the legitimate sons. If the concubine proposes marriage to our young lady, I'm afraid they won't dare to say anything. Most likely, it will be the two legitimate sons and one legitimate son.

The eldest son and the fourth son. The wife of the eldest son of Qi passed away years ago. The fourth son of Qi has also reached the age of marriage proposal and has not yet married a wife. I don’t know who is coming to propose marriage this time."

"Have I seen this Fourth Young Master Qi? What is his name?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"It seems... called Qi Tuo!" Yan'er said.

"Qi Tuo? No impression..." Shen Qinglan said.

Anyway, she doesn't want to get married yet. If the Qi family really proposes marriage, she will definitely not agree. Moreover, she has to fulfill her promise to go to Kyoto next spring.

"What is the character and appearance of the Fourth Young Master of Qi?" Fu'er asked,

"It is said that Qi Tuo started doing business at the age of eight, and worked as a shopkeeper in his own cloth shop at the age of ten. In short, he is a good businessman. As for his appearance... I don't know about this..."

At this time, Tao Guan'er stood at the door and asked, "Sister Shen, can I come in?"

"Come in!"

After Tao Guan'er entered the door, she looked at so many people in the room and winked at Shen Qinglan, "Sister Shen..."

"You go ahead and do your work. We'll talk later."

After Shen Qinglan said that, the little girls all left.

"What's the matter?"

"Sister Shen, the young prince asked me to tell you something. He said that your majesty will issue a decree recently to reward you based on your merits. You must stay at home these days and not move around at will, so as not to miss the reward." Tao Guan'er said.

Shen Qinglan was very excited, "Your Majesty, you still want to give me a reward?"

"From what the young prince means, it should be so."

"That's great! By the way, I've always been curious about how you and the young prince contacted each other?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Taoguan'er sat down, picked up a piece of cake on the table, took a bite, and said, "This is all thanks to one of us in Luoping City!"

"Who are the people from Luoping City?"

Taoguan'er said mysteriously: "Sister, I'm telling you, you can't tell others!"

"Come on, tell me who you think I am!"

"That's our Mr. Liu Rulin from Luoping City! Mr. Liu is well-read and has an extraordinary skill, which is bird training!"

"Training birds? Pigeons?"

"If carrier pigeons are really used, they will be easily discovered by the enemy! Master Liu organized a group of specialized bird trainers and trained a group of nightingales and gyrfalcons specifically to deliver messages."

It turns out that's the case. No wonder Zhao Shun would use the nightingale's cry as a signal every time he came late at night.

"The nightingale's voice is very discernible and can convey information and signals. This Gyrfalcon is the king of the sky and flies very fast. Generally, information from Luoping City can be delivered to the capital in less than two or three hours."

"So fast... No wonder he is so well-informed. How many of these little princes have he raised in total? Can you give me one as well?" Shen Qinglan said.

"You can use the nightingales and gyrfalcons of our sixteen secret guards as you wish! I don't know how many the young prince has raised, but they must be no less than several hundred." Tao Guan'er replied.

Shen Qinglan nodded, it turned out that Liu Rulin was also Zhao Shun's.

It seems that the last time Zhao Shun arranged for his sixteen secret guards to go to Luoping Mansion Yamen, he also used Liu Rulin's route.

The few times she had been in contact with Liu Rulin, she had always thought that he was a man who was just a leisurely fish and a wild crane, but he actually followed Zhao Shun. It seemed that this person was not that simple.

"Sister, when are we going to Kyoto?" Tao Guan'er suddenly asked.

"How did you know we were going to Kyoto?" Shen Qinglan was surprised.

"The young prince asked me to ask. He asked me to remind you not to forget about moving to Kyoto." Tao Guan'er said.

"How could I forget...after all, I owe him hundreds of thousands of taels of silver..."

Shen Qinglan muttered, and Tao Guan'er was also surprised, "Sister, you owe the young prince so much money? What's going on?"

"Hmph..." She was a little dissatisfied, "It's not because of you, the little devil, that I had to keep you sixteen secret guards, and then Zhao Shun opened his mouth and took eight thousand taels of silver from me alone. Ah! Alas... I am a daughter, how can I have so much money..."

"I see you can't escape!" Tao Guan'er smiled, then stood up and said, "Sister, I'm still boiling the poison over there, I'll go back and take a look first."

"You have to be more careful when handling those things!"

"Don't worry, sister, I assure you that no one will find out and there will be no problems!"
