"Isn't he worried that I'd come and snatch my aunt away? Why is he leaving again?"
Xiao Huaizheng felt puzzled.
Lin Yue said: "Don't worry about him, go and do your work first. I will send someone to inform you when I have news."
Xiao Huaizheng said: "It's okay, I'll wait in the palace. I'll come every day from now on. Anyway, it's okay as long as I can get back to the palace in time at night."
"Seeing my cousin like this, I'm worried about leaving."
Are you sarcastic? Who wouldn't be?
Su Yingyue was secretly amazed. How could Lin Yue win over the Fourth Prince after only two days in the palace? No wonder Xiao Huaiqing came back after entering the palace and said that Lin Yue was very good at pretending and had deceived everyone.
If this continues, won't she become the real Princess Ding?
Su Yingyue was a little anxious, but she remained respectful as she said, "The Fourth Prince has misunderstood. The Crown Prince has always respected Mother, but he's been a bit busy these past few days. He said he was helping the Fourth Prince with something. And the Crown Prince has also gone to select a site for the charity hall Mother wants to build."
"Mother, the prince just acted too impulsively. He has no bad intentions. I'll talk to him later and ask him to come and apologize to you."
Lin Yue said: "No need. It's his responsibility to handle the affairs of the palace. As for helping Huai Zheng, let them talk to their brothers."
"I'm not in the house, and you've been working hard managing the household. Go back and rest."
[To avoid any bumps and collisions later, I’ll have to explain myself, which is really tiring]
Xiao Huaizheng also hurriedly said: "Cousin, go and have a rest. It's enough for the aunt to have me accompany her."
Su Yingyue was very unhappy to see that they were all rejecting her. Especially when she secretly glanced at Lin Yue and saw that she didn't want to avoid suspicion at all, she thought that she was planning to use the Fourth Prince to provoke Xiao Huaiqing.
No wonder the two of them were so close, they were deliberately causing misunderstandings.
This method is as despicable as ever!
"Oh well."
She knelt and saluted, then left briskly. But before she left, she curled her lips, looking as if she understood everything.
"Why does this couple feel weird?" Xiao Huaizheng said.
Lin Yue said, "The fact that you can see it now proves that you have made progress. What happened with your mother back then was definitely a hidden conspiracy."
"Go find Xiao Huaiqing and ask about the situation first. I also need to take care of the affairs of the palace."
Xiao Huaizheng was shocked. Many times, the details they overlooked might be the key to the incident.
He nodded solemnly and quickly went to find Xiao Huaiqing.
Lin Yue also asked Bai Changshi to take a look at the site map. Bai Changshi said, "There is a spacious courtyard in our mansion on Chengfang Street to the west. It is very suitable for setting up a charity hall. It is also close to our palace."
"The other is Dafangjia Hutong over at the South Gate. It's mainly because we're considering setting up tents to distribute porridge and settling good people there. Most of the people there are from other places, and they've been workers looking for work for years."
Lin Yue said, "Then we'll put the charity hall on Chengfang Street. There won't be much movement here. The public security office will be placed at the South Gate. We'll have a few guards keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get destroyed."
Bai Changshi said, "Don't worry, Princess. The prince is still fighting outside. Even if someone dares to cause trouble, they will suffer the consequences."
Lin Yue nodded and asked, "Where did you buy the wasteland?"
Bai Changshi quickly said, "In Daxing, there are two hills with a total of 620 mu of farmland."
Lin Yue said, "The mountain is planted with fruit trees. Find a few fruit farmers to take a look and see what to plant."
"Let them start working on the wasteland. Also, if there's a soil layer on the hillside, they can also reclaim it. That way the price is cheaper. Consider buying about 200 acres."
"We don't have to use the name of our palace for everything. We can give them a share of the Queen's and the Queen Mother's. When the time comes, we can say it's the Prince's intention. This will also prevent us from attracting attention. If it doesn't work out, no one will be watching, so there will be no worries."
Upon hearing this, Bai Changshi was greatly impressed.
The reason why he bought the barren mountains as well was because he was worried that buying only farmland would arouse jealousy. If it seemed that he was buying some barren mountains and wilderness, others would just think that the palace had money but nowhere to spend it, and would not take it too seriously.
Bai Changshi said, "The messengers from the capital to the border travel very quickly. Calculating the days, His Majesty should soon receive the princess's letter."
"In the past few years, the prince has not said it, but I know in my heart that he still misses the princess very much."
Lin Yue quickly said, "Stop, do your thing. Your prince and I are husband and wife, not lovers. We don't need you to come between us to strengthen our relationship."
Bai Changshi laughed loudly. Ever since the princess had let go of things, her temperament had become very straightforward and quick-witted, much better than before.
If the prince knew about this, he would definitely like it.
He thought about it and happily took the drawings and left.
As soon as Bai Changshi left, the small mirror in her arms said, "If you want to run a charity in the capital, Chengfang Street is a good choice, but it's not as good as Xingsheng Street. There's a garrison there. Although not many, it's relatively safer."
Lin Yue said: "But the palace has a house on Chengfang Street, it's just a matter of convenience."
Little Mirror continued, "I asked Xiao Jingyun, and he said there's also an expanded house on Xingsheng Street. He asked you to get the deed from the drawer in the second room of his study."
Lin Yue: "Oh, private money?"
Xiao Jingyun on the other side of the mirror: "..."? !
After Lin Yue got it, she looked at the area written on it and felt a little dazed for a moment.
It’s a big villa, covering three acres of land. He is a rich man, definitely a rich man.
"Hey, Little Mirror, are you sure it was Xiao Jingyun who told you that?"
"What if I take it and he comes back to settle the score with me? This house is so big, I guess he's going to use it to hide his mistress."
Xiao Jingyun: “…”!!!
