The paranoid prince is crazy, but I have been quietly reborn

Chapter 12

The day after the wedding.

Waking up in the summer morning, the breeze carries a hint of dryness and heat, and the sun shines down from the sky. It is another fine weather.

In Prince Yu's mansion, servants and maidservants everywhere began to be busy in an orderly manner, but there were many figures but silent, and they kept quiet as if they had a tacit understanding with each other.

In Luoxue Pavilion, the gate was closed tightly, and there was no one busy in the courtyard.

Princess Yu, who was supposed to be served by a group of maidservants, was not cared about at the moment.

In the wing room, Su Youning woke up and found that there was nothing strange about her body, as if the heart-wrenching pain last night was just her nightmare.

Fortunately, Jixiang Ruyi is her personal servant, and she has already made preparations for getting up and grooming in the morning.

After getting up to wash and wash, Su Youning changed into regular clothes, and the hair bun of a girl who was not out of the court that she used to comb was now also pulled up.

Ji Xiang opened the jewelry box on the dressing table, looked at Lin Lang's pearl hairpin, worried that Su Youning would be emotional because of the neglect of her big wedding yesterday, so she asked cautiously.

"Miss, will this servant put the hairpin on for you?"

Su Youning looked at the unpainted cheeks in the bronze mirror, and nodded slightly.

No matter how poor she is, she is still the princess of the family. She has a marriage bestowed by the emperor and her natal family relies on her. She must be a qualified princess.

After getting dressed, Su Youning pushed open the door of the wing room, staring at the empty courtyard in a daze.

Jixiang has been waiting in the wing room, and he hadn't had time to take a closer look at the Luoxue Pavilion last night. Standing behind Su Youning at this moment, his heart felt a little cold.

The courtyard was overgrown with weeds and there was no scenery, and even the only lotus pond was left with yellow poles and muddy water.

"Miss, where is this?"

When Su Youning heard Ji Xiang call her young lady, she suddenly came back to her senses, and interrupted her with a raised hand.

"Auspicious, I changed the title of Miss, this is Prince Yu's Mansion, we must not make mistakes."

Ji Xiang remembered the scene of the three of them kneeling on Changyintai last night, and couldn't help shivering.

"Yes, princess."

Ruyi worked in the small kitchen for a while, and came out with a tray to see Su Youning standing by the door of the wing with a new look, her face beaming with joy.

"Princess, you look much better, hurry up and have breakfast."

Su Youning sipped the porridge, but his mind was rapidly thinking about the next days in Prince Yu's Mansion.

No need to think too much, Chu Yu definitely didn't want her to be Princess Yu from the bottom of her heart.

There may be two reasons for marrying her into the mansion.

One is that Su Youning bumped into Chu Yu twice, and he couldn't kill her easily because Su Youning was the daughter of Su Zhixing, so it would be better to trap her to death in Prince Yu's Mansion, which would relieve his hatred.

Second, Su Youning boldly guessed that Chu Yu has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger for so many years!
Su Youning's conjecture is not groundless, these days she has learned intentionally or unintentionally that the emperor has very few heirs.

The eldest prince, Chu Jing, died when he was young. His mother and concubine were the emperor's former relatives. Because of the pain of losing their son, they couldn't get sick, and they were raised in the deep palace without seeing anyone all day long.

The second prince, Chu Wen, is the empress's son and also the current prince, but he is not outstanding in literature and martial arts, and the ministers of the court have criticized him.

The third prince, Chu Yu, was the son of Concubine Yu. It was rumored that if it hadn't been for the murder when he was young, Chu Yu might have been the emperor's favorite candidate for the crown prince.

The fourth prince Chu Nan's mother and concubine have a low status, and he was weak since he was a child. He was sent to the Fahua Temple in the south of the Yangtze River to be educated. There is no news about him so far.

The fifth prince, Chu Lian, is the son of Concubine Ling. Concubine Ling is a close relative of the Empress' mother's family, so she naturally has a good relationship with the Crown Prince, and puts the Crown Prince first in everything.

The four princes are all adults with almost the same age, only the sixth prince Chuhe is still young, only five years old this year.

When Su Youning first heard the news, she couldn't help sighing. Everyone said that princes were born precious, but counting them carefully, the few noble princes were not luckier than the children of ordinary families. They died young, lost their mothers, and left the palace weakly. .
Thinking of these words, Su Youning couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

In her last life, she only knew that she had a difficult life in Shen's residence, and outside of Shen's residence, the situation of some people in the capital was not much better than her.

In this life, she guessed that the reason why Chu Yu used the term "pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger" was also very simple. Someone wanted to kill him the night he was fed half moon.

In the city of Kyoto, if someone dared to ride a horse and hunt him down on the long street, it would be a difficult person to make an envoy. Even if Chu Yu was injured or died, no one would dare to investigate the matter.

On the other hand, Chu Yu was obviously injured that night, but no one in the capital knew about it.

Sitting in a wheelchair and relying on the emperor's pity to get a murderous reputation in the capital, Su Youning can't think of anyone who can spend a lot of money to arrange a team of well-trained men in black to protect him, unless those people are him my own!

Su Youning pondered over these details, unknowingly the bottom of the bowl of porridge had already been reached.

Seeing that Su Youning frowned slightly, Jixiang seemed to be thinking about something, seeing that she didn't move her chopsticks, she silently took away the rest of the breakfast, made a pot of new tea, and brought two plates of snacks and put them within Su Youning's reach.

"Princess, the housekeeper is here."

Ruyi, who was picking up weeds in the courtyard, came in to report, with a trace of nervousness on her face.

Su Youning regained consciousness, nodded slightly, and motioned for the butler to come in.

"See the princess."

The butler walked in with an old woman, two young maidservants and four servants, and said respectfully.

Su Youning nodded slightly.

"You don't need to be too polite. I need you to take care of me in the future. I don't know how to address you?"

In the future, it is better to have more things than to have less things. It is always right to make friends with people.

The butler had an uncomfortable expression on his face and bowed slightly.

"The princess is polite, the old slave's surname is Liu."

Immediately afterwards, Steward Liu turned around and led the group of people behind him forward.

"There is no one to serve in Luoxue Pavilion. The prince specially arranged for the old slave to choose a few experienced people to serve the princess. If you need anything, you can send someone to find the old slave at any time."

Su Youning smiled slightly, turned her head and nodded towards Jixiang.

Auspiciously understood, he took out a silver ingot from the money bag brought in the inner compartment, held it in his hand, and stuffed it into Butler Liu's hand.

"Thank you, Butler Liu."

Butler Liu calmly stuffed the silver into his cuff, and asked with a bow.

"There are other things in the house that need to be handled by the old slave. Does the princess have other orders?"

Su Youning shook his head.

"Thank you, Steward Liu, for today, and auspiciously send Steward Liu out."

After Steward Liu left, the rest of the people came up and introduced themselves one by one, mother in charge, mother Lin, maidservant Chun Chan Xia He, servants Wang Hai, Liu Lu, Fu Gui, and Zhang Qian.

After Su Youning recognized them one by one, she signaled to Ji Xiang to give each of them some money and jewelry.

Ji Xiang glanced at Su Youning, and saw her taking a sip of tea leisurely, puffing out her chest and showing off.

"Everyone who enters the Luoxue Pavilion is a member of the Luoxue Pavilion. If you serve with all your heart, it will be beneficial. If you don't, the princess will return to the housekeeper, and you will find your own way out."

When everyone heard it, they looked at each other and bowed respectfully at the same time.

"The slaves dare not!"

"Slave dare not!"

On the other side, Steward Liu who came out of Luoxue Pavilion went directly into the main courtyard, looked around the old place, and saw Ze Lan respectfully saluted.

"Master Zelan."

Zelan flew down from the big banyan tree in the courtyard.

"How about Luoxue Pavilion?"

Steward Liu took out the ingot of silver from his cuff and handed it to Zelan with both hands.

"A reward from the princess."

Ze Lan took the silver and played with it in his hand, remembering that Su Youning almost kicked him out, suddenly became irritable, and tightly clenched the silver.

"Go and get busy, Luoxue Pavilion doesn't need to worry about it anymore."
