Chapter 72 I dare not accept this makeup
"But don't worry, as long as you soak in the medicinal bath I prescribed for you every day and let Jin Congcong give you acupuncture every morning, you'll be fine. Use flowers to remove the poison every three days like last night, and you'll be fine in about half a year."
After Xiao Yulan knew that Bu Ruo was the person who saved her from the cliff, she never doubted that she could save her this time.
"Thank you for your hard work, Ruoer. By the way, I have something to give you."
Xiao Yulan placed a black token the size of a palm in her hand.
"This is the Ironclad Guard's token. With this token, you can command the Ironclad Guard. Even if you ask them to rebel, they won't blink an eye."
"These three thousand men are training in a secluded valley about ten miles outside the capital. When Ruo'er comes to the study, I'll point it out on the map for you, so we can prepare for any emergency."
"And the housekeeper's key will be given to you by Butler Qin in a moment. From now on, Ruo'er will have the final say over every blade of grass and every tree in the Zhan Prince's Mansion. Even if you set the Zhan Prince's Mansion on fire, no one else will say a word."
Bu Ruo raised an eyebrow: "Others won't say anything, but what about you, Your Highness? What will you say?"
"This king?" Xiao Yulan put on his coat and touched Bu Ruo's soft head: "This king will only be the one who helps Ruo'er light the fire."
Looking at Xiao Yulan's departing back, Bu Ruo said to himself: Xiao Yulan, if you don't let me down in this life, I will help you soar to the sky.
"Miss? Miss, what are you daydreaming about? Someone from the third room is coming."
Bu Ruo paused while getting dressed: "Third room? Who's coming?"
Bi'er's lips curled up. "It's that Tian and her daughter Bu Yanfu. They said they came to give you some kind of dowry gift."
"I think she probably saw the dowry Wumingshan gave you when you got married, and I don't know what bad ideas she has up her sleeve."
"Besides, Miss, you have already severed your ties with them, so why would you need them to add to your dowry? And adding to your dowry... I think they are just here to cause you trouble."
Bu Ruo reached out and pinched Bi'er's face: "Who cares about her conspiracy? We'll know after we see."
"Miss, do you really want to see them?"
Bu Ru nodded seriously: "See, life is too boring, they are just gossiping."
…
"Chaoyang Garden? What a nice name." Tian from the third house followed behind Bier and looked at the name of the courtyard and praised it with a smile, but her eyes revealed her reluctance.
Bu Yanfu was filled with envy when she saw the scene in Prince Zhan's mansion along the way. If Prince Zhan was not a sickly man, she would not have wanted to seduce Prince Yongning and would have seduced Prince Zhan instead.
Especially the face and temperament of the King of War, not to mention Lin Rou was moved, even she was not immune to it.
But... she didn't want to be buried alive after just a few days of good life.
Chaoyang Garden.
"Yes, cut down the tree here. It prevents me from watching the stars at night. And I don't want that small tree over there either. Planting trees in that direction is a bit unlucky for me."
"Here... put a few more pots of flowers here. Any kind of flowers will do, preferably ones that can bloom all year round, and not too delicate and easy to raise."
"The tea set on the table in my room... forget about the tea set. I have plenty in my trousseau. I'll have Bi'er pick out a set later."
"We need a few cabinets here, too. I'll draw a blueprint and you can find a reliable carpenter to rebuild them. We need the best wood. A bit of money doesn't matter, as long as the craftsmanship is good."
"Yes, I have noted down everything. I will definitely find the best carpenter in Kyoto." Butler Qin followed Bu Ruo with a paper and pen, writing down everything one by one, fearing that he would miss anything.
"By the way, Butler Qin, you've been managing Prince Zhan's Mansion for so many years. You should continue to manage it in the future. I'm a lazy person and I really can't handle all those miscellaneous matters. It's too tiring and takes too much brainpower."
"The prince believes in you, and this princess also believes in you. From now on, except for major matters that you cannot make up your mind about, you don't have to report everything to me in the Zhan Palace. You can make the decision yourself."
Butler Qin looked at Bu Ruo in shock. Is the princess... going to give up her power?
You have to know that in other families, let alone the princess, even the mistress of a small family would try her best to get the housekeeper's power as the first thing to do when she gets married, but his princess thinks it is too tiring and brain-consuming?
No wonder the princess always heard Cen Nan say that the future princess would be easy to get along with before she entered the house, but this was a little too easy to get along with.
And the princess’ personality... is so likable, unlike the prince, who has always had a cold face since he was a child.
"Thank you for your trust, Princess. I will manage the Zhan Palace well. Princess, your guests have arrived. I will leave first."
When they were almost at the gate, Butler Qin suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, Miss Bi'er, when you have some free time, could you please make a list for me, mainly about the princess's daily dietary preferences?"
"Princess, what do you like to eat, what do you dislike to eat, what can and cannot eat, from big meals to small snacks, try to take care of every detail. This was ordered by the prince personally this morning."
Bier nodded in agreement, but she did not miss the jealousy that flashed across Bu Yanfu's eyes.
"Princess, the person has been brought here."
When Tian saw Bu Ruo sitting on the stone bench in the yard, she went over and wanted to hold her hand.
"How dare you! You don't even bow to the princess. Do you have any manners at all?"
Tian and Bu Yanfu looked at each other and could only bow to Bu Ru.
"Meet the princess."
Bu Ruo took the teacup handed to her by Bi'er without even glancing at them, and even her voice was faint.
"Get up, say whatever you want to say, and leave right away. This princess is very busy and has no time to meet with random people."
"And Bi'er, have the butler tell the concierge that this princess has long since severed ties with the rest of the Bu family. If anyone else tries to claim kinship with them, don't let them in. If they keep pestering, just beat them out with a stick."
When Tian and Bu Yanfu heard what Bu Ruo said, they felt embarrassed. They had indeed told the doorman today that they were relatives of the princess. The doorman knew that they were from the third branch of the Bu family but did not know that Bu Ruo had severed ties with them, so he let them in.
"Ruo'er, Third Aunt..."
"Shut up! How can you call the princess by her maiden name?"
Tian took a deep breath and tried to maintain a smile on her face. "Princess, we are sending you some dowry today. My family happened to be busy when you got married and didn't have time to spare, so that's why we were delayed. We specially sent it to you today."
Bu Ruo finally looked up at the two of them, just one glance, and then he smiled.
"Take it back. I dare not accept this dowry. You don't have to ask for anything. We are no longer related. Your life or death has nothing to do with me."
"But for the sake of a certain ancestor, I still want to advise you that although Prince Yongning and Princess Yongning have divorced, the Emperor and Concubine Shun will never allow him to marry a woman with no foundation, who was conceived without a matchmaker, and who is pregnant before even entering the marriage, as Princess Yongning."
