My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived-Chapter 17 - Princess Jiang Sends People to the Mansion

…

When Chu Baihan woke up, she saw Ruolan kneeling in front of her, watching over her.

“Princess Consort, you’re awake.” Ruolan’s expression brightened upon seeing her awaken.

Rubbing her eyes, Chu Baihan slowly sat up, only to realize she was lying in a guest room.

“I clearly remember being in the carriage; how did I wake up here?” Chu Baihan frowned and murmured softly.

“Ruolan, do you know how I got here?” Chu Baihan turned her head and asked Ruolan.

Ruolan’s body stiffened; she tried her best to sound natural, “Princess Consort, it was us servants who carried you here.

You were so tired that you don’t remember it.”

“Is that so?” Chu Baihan furrowed her brows, her mood clearly depressed.

Was her memory so poor now that she couldn’t even remember how she got back?

Seeing that Chu Baihan was not dwelling on the matter any longer, Ruolan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually… it was the Prince who carried the Princess Consort in.

But the Prince had instructed them not to tell the Princess Consort about it.

Sigh, the Prince’s thoughts are truly hard to comprehend.

“Where is the Prince?” Chu Baihan, rubbing her sore arm, got up and casually asked Ruolan.

“The Prince is in the study.” Ruolan respectfully replied.

Chu Baihan nodded, her mind already pondering over how much medication she should prepare for him today.

“Has Doctor Wei delivered the medicine?” Chu Baihan asked in a lowered voice.

Since Ruolan was arranged by Nanny Xiao, there was no need for suspicion, and she openly discussed the medication.

Ruolan indeed proved reliable; she nodded, “Yes, Doctor Wei has long delivered the medicine.

Lord Ziying said that, for safety, a small kitchen has been set up in the Prince’s courtyard where you can prepare the medication.”

“Good.”

Chu Baihan tidied her clothes and quickly walked out.

With these arrangements in place, she had less to worry about.

But what she hadn’t expected was to run into Eunuch Zhang Hai on the way.

Behind Zhang Hai followed a eunuch and a group of vibrantly dressed women, creating quite a spectacle.

“Isn’t this Princess Consort Yan Lin?

This humble servant greets the Princess Consort.”

Zhang Hai was a shrewd man; he didn’t neglect to show respect to Chu Baihan due to her awkward status, but instead greeted her ceremoniously.

Chu Baihan recognized him, so she directly asked, “Eunuch, what is this…”

“Congratulations, Princess Consort Yan Lin.

Consort Jiang mentioned the quietness of the Prince Residence to the Emperor, so His Majesty, sympathetic to the loneliness of the Prince, has sent these ladies to the residence to serve him, and you will not feel solitary anymore,” Zhang Hai said with a smile.

So, they were sending women over?

Chu Baihan’s expression gradually turned colder.

“Princess Consort Yan Lin, these young ladies are all selected beauties of this year.

They come from good families and are talented, but most importantly, they are sensible.

I believe the Prince will definitely like them,” Zhang Hai continued to speak.

The women walked up to Chu Baihan and bowed, “Princess Consort, we will serve the Prince wholeheartedly in the future.”

“Princess Consort!” Ruolan called out to Chu Baihan anxiously.

The Prince and Princess Consort had only been married for a few days, so why was the Emperor already sending women into the Prince’s Residence?

Chu Baihan let out a breath, furious in her heart; the Empress intended to make their lives difficult.

Unable to trouble her in the Imperial Palace, now they were blatantly sending women over.

“By the way, Princess Consort Yan Lin, the Empress also proposed to the Emperor to send two nannies to teach you etiquette.

Having been away from the capital for so many years, you might be unfamiliar with some rules, so the Empress hopes you’ll take this opportunity to learn,” said Zhang Hai as he finished speaking.

Two nannies with unpleasant expressions on their faces came forward.

“Princess Consort Yan Lin, from today on, you will follow us to learn etiquette and must not disgrace the Royal Family!”

“You should first report this kind of matter to the Prince before coming to me,” Chu Baihan retracted her gaze, speaking indifferently.

Hearing her words, Zhang Hai let out a few embarrassed chuckles, “Princess Consort, you are already married into Prince Yan Lin’s household.

Such minor matters you can report to the Prince yourself.”

His expression clearly showed fear of Yan Lin.

But it made sense, after all, the notorious fierceness of the post-incident Prince Yan Lin was well known; he didn’t give face even to the Empress, let alone a eunuch?

“Eunuch, since this is the Emperor’s decree, it would still be best for you to personally convey it to the Prince,” Chu Baihan knew his little ploy all too well and tossed the tricky problem back to him.

It was at this moment that a stern voice came from behind her: “What’s happening here?”

She turned her head and saw Ziwu supporting Yan Lin as they came out.

“This servant has seen the Prince,” Zhang Hai hurriedly paid his respects.

“Your concubine has seen the Prince,” the overly adorned women, with their voices tinged with coquetry, also followed suit with their greetings.

“Enough noise, Ziyi, throw them out,” Yan Lin ordered coldly and ruthlessly.

The women, who had been giggling, suddenly felt a heavy sinking feeling in their hearts and became extremely flustered when they heard Yan Lin’s murderous words.

“Prince, the concubine was sent by the Emperor to serve you.”

A woman dressed in goose-yellow approached hurriedly to explain.

“Prince, these are the selected beauties the Emperor ordered me to bring to Prince Yan Lin’s Residence.

If you like any of them, you can give them a status.

If that is still not acceptable, just keep them in the residence to give it more thought…”

Zhang Hai swallowed nervously; there was no way to dodge it, he had to steel himself to repeat to Chu Baihan the words he had said earlier.

“Ziwu, throw everyone out for me!” Yan Lin was seething with fury, not giving any face to the Emperor.

Zhang Hai kept wiping sweat from his brow and cautiously said, “Prince, this is the Emperor’s decree.

If you send them back like this, it wouldn’t be proper.”

Yet the certain Prince Yan Lin did not deign to exchange another word with him.

Ziwu signaled to the guards; they immediately came over, ready to throw all these people out.

Watching the scene unfold, Chu Baihan suddenly felt a sense of relief; so the notorious Prince behaved like this towards everyone.

Thinking that Yan Lin could solve all matters, she yawned languidly and planned to go make some medicine.

But unexpectedly, just as she turned around, that woman in the goose-yellow silk dress suddenly rushed forward.

She said loudly, “Prince Yan Lin, we’ve been ordered by the Emperor to be brought here.

By sending us away like this, you will only bring shame to our families.

My father, a military officer, is already held in low regard in the court, and I fear this matter will make him an even greater laughing stock.”

“What is your father’s name?” Yan Lin suddenly asked with a furrowed brow.

“Replying to the Prince, my father’s name is Wan Yicheng.”

Yan Lin’s expression changed slightly, “What’s your name?”

“Replying to the Prince, this commoner is called Wan Yiyu,” Wan Yiyu answered softly with her head lowered.

“Ziwu, find her accommodations,” Yan Lin fell silent for a moment and then, to everyone’s surprise, made this statement.
