Xiao Tao received Lin Yue'e's order and couldn't make up her mind for a while as she looked at the palace maids coming and going.
She knew that the one the queen cared about most was Prince Chen. Now that Prince Chen had married the second daughter of the Xu family, the queen was afraid that she would hate Queen Xu even more.
"Are you new here?"
Xu Wanyu was holding a basin and passed by Xiaotao when she was called by her.
"Yes, I just arrived."
Xiao Tao looked her up and down, then smiled and asked, "Where are you from?"
"Lin, Linzhou, I am from Linzhou."
Xiao Tao was delighted. They were so far away from home and had no one to rely on in the capital. If they were given a little benefit, they would work hard for them!
Thinking of this, she felt that the person she was looking for today was her.
"May I have your name?"
"My maid's name is Yu'er."
"Fish? Why don't your family call you Shrimp?"
Seeing Xiaotao's teasing expression, Xu Wanyu felt uncomfortable but didn't show it on her face.
"My maidservant's jade is such that its flaws do not outweigh its merits."
"I see. It seems your parents can also read a little."
Xu Wanyu nodded, "I know a little bit."
"That's good. Now, I have a task for you. Can you do it?"
Xu Wanyu hesitated. She came to find the prince, so how could she have the time to do tasks for others?
"Why? Don't want to?"
Xu Wanyu quickly waved her hands, "No, no, I'm just worried that I don't have the ability to complete it and that I might end up wasting your time."
Xiao Tao said nonchalantly, "It's not difficult. It's easy to complete and relaxing. At least it's not like the heavy work you're doing now."
"real?"
Xu Wanyu was overjoyed. She thought that doing light work would make it easier to meet the prince.
"Of course it's true, it just depends on whether you are willing or not."
"Yes, yes."
She had only been in the palace for two days, but she felt sore all over and was exhausted.
"Okay, you have to know that you are the Crown Princess's man, and you are here to help the Crown Princess."
Hearing this, Xu Wanyu suddenly became serious and looked solemn.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a concubine who lives in Hehua Garden. She has a younger sister who married into Prince Chen's mansion. Please help the Crown Princess keep an eye on them and see if they have any contact. Report every detail to her."
Xu Wanyu's heart skipped a beat; these were all her family members.
"Can you watch?"
Xiaotao's voice became louder.
"Yes, yes."
Xu Wanyu was full of confidence. She knew Wanyan was going to marry into the Chen Palace. This Xu Wanqing...
However, it should be easier to see the prince by Xu Wanqing's side, and it should be more interesting to snatch the prince from Xu Wanqing.
Thinking of this, Xu Wanyu actually felt a little excited.
She hadn't seen the Crown Prince for the past two days in Zhengxi Palace. She guessed that the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess was just like that.
If I go to Xu Wanqing, maybe I can really turn things around.
Thinking of this, Xu Wanyu seemed to be almost certain of becoming the prince's woman.
"why are you laughing?"
Xiaotao frowned and looked at her with dissatisfaction.
Xu Wanyu quickly collected her thoughts and answered honestly, "I'm not laughing at anything. I will definitely do my best."
"Okay, go ahead. Remember, your master is the Crown Princess."
"Yes, I saved it."
Putting down the heavy work in her hands, Xu Wanyu happily followed Xiaotao to Hehuayuan.
Looking at Xu Wanqing who was still asleep, she couldn't help but curl her lips: What a lazy bum!

Prince Chen's Mansion
"Princess, you will return home tomorrow morning. The prince has already made a list. Please review it."
Xu Wanyan was full of surprise when she took the list from Nanny Wei.
"I can do this myself."
Nanny Wei smiled and said, "Princess, this shows how much the prince values you. I've been with the prince for all these years, but I've never seen him value any other girl so much."
"hehe"
Xu Wanyan smiled awkwardly, "Then, Lin..."
Before she could finish, Nanny Wei interrupted her, "No, no, you're the first one."
Hearing this, Xu Wanyan blushed with joy.
"Mammy, I think everything above is good. Let's do as the prince wishes."
"Okay, then I'll have the servants prepare it."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Ma'am."
"It's not hard. You and the prince are in love and live in harmony. If you can give birth to a little prince, then this old servant's wish will be fulfilled."
Nanny Wei’s words made Xu Wanyan’s face even redder.
As soon as Nanny Wei left, the housekeeper came again.
"Princess, here is your letter."
Xu Wanyan quickly took the letter, fearing that her grandfather and others were worried about her life, so they wrote to her.
When I unfolded it, I saw that it was indeed a letter from my grandfather.
After watching it, Xu Wanyan felt touched. It felt good to be cared about.
"Princess, someone has sent you a letter."
Qiao Yun came with a gloomy look on her face, looking very unhappy.
"What's wrong?"
"Princess, someone has written to you."
Xu Wanyan thought it was a letter from the Su family, so she smiled and said, "Grandfather and cousin are worried that I won't adapt to life in the palace, so it's normal for them to send a letter."
Qiao Yun shook her head and said in a muffled voice, "It's not a letter from the Su family, it's from the Lin family."
Hearing this, Xu Wanyan's face darkened, "I won't look at it."
Qiao Yun nodded and said, "It was given by Madam Lin. Madam Lin is really something. She knew that Madam Lin had no good intentions towards you, but she still wanted to be the bad guy."
Xu Wanyan smiled and shook her head. "She has no choice. Old Madam Lin is her husband's grandmother. The Lin family listens to the old lady. What can she do?"
"Miss, it seems that the last time I went to the Shen family, I really had a bad experience. I'm covered in a dog-skin plaster that I can't get rid of."
Seeing Qiao Yun's angry expression, Xu Wanyan couldn't help but laugh, "Qiao Yun, is the dog-skin plaster you just mentioned the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion?"
Qiao Yun was stunned for a moment and quickly covered her mouth, "Miss, I am talking nonsense, please punish me quickly, I..."
"Okay, this won't happen again. You must be careful. Trouble comes from the mouth, and that's no joke."
Qiao Yun nodded quickly, "I understand. I won't dare to do it again next time."
Xu Wanyan nodded, and the matter was over.
She put the letter on the table and went back to her room without even reading it.
If Xiao Jingming told her to ignore him, she would just ignore him and be a virtuous and obedient wife. Madam Lin shouldn't be able to find fault with her, right?
Xu Wanyan shook her head. In fact, she was still a little scared.
Madam Lin is no ordinary person.
In the evening, Xiao Jingming came back and saw the letter as expected.
After opening it, his eyes darkened and he burned the letter.
"What's the point of burning it?"
"There's no point in keeping them. Just ignore the Lin family's affairs. If they come to the palace, have Nanny Wei accompany you."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Xiao Jingming looked outside. The Lin family had already made it so clear, yet they still came to Wanyan again and again. He was too indulgent.
"Rest early, I'll accompany you back home tomorrow."
"good."
