An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 423

In the crown prince's mansion. Yun Shang lifted her eyes to look at the plaque above the door, and frowned. Liu Wenan had been keeping an eye on their expressions. He said to Prince Jing with a smile, "Your Highness, please forgive my negligence. The emperor's decree came so suddenly that I didn't have the chance to change it. However, the servants of the crown prince are still here and cleaned it every day. It should be clean as well."

Yun Shang turned to look at the somewhat cold door. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "no women? What should we do with the people who used to live here? "

Hearing Yun Shang's question, Liu Wenan glanced at her and said, "don't worry, your highness. The emperor of the crown prince's family has already moved to another yard. According to the rule of the state of Xia, they have to guard the tomb for three years. Since the crown prince is no longer here, they can't stay in the crown prince's house any more."

Yun Shang listened in silence for a long time without saying a word. Liu Wenan had served the emperor for many years, but for the first time he found the unexpected appearance of Prince Rui and Lady Rui confused him. He bowed and said, "Prince Rui, lady Shun Rui, let's go inside."

Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang. He took her hand and said gently, "come in. From now on, it will probably be our home."

Yun Shang lowered her head and smiled bitterly. They were in the state of Xia now. No matter what intention Xia Huanyu held and made such an arrangement, they could only accept it.

As they followed Liu Wenan entered the crown prince's house, Yun Shang found that the mansion looked rather luxurious. Even the path was paved with jade. However, it was splendid, but less refined. As soon as they entered the house, he saw a large garden, filled with various kinds of precious flowers and plants, especially with peony. The garden led to the flower room. In the flower room, there were various kinds of jade. On the wall were several grand landscape paintings. The tables and chairs were all made of expensive rosewood, and the teacup on the table was also rare colored porcelain.

The head of the flower hall walked out and saw about two hundred people standing in the garden behind it. The garden was full of peach flowers, which was the season of peach blossom blooming. All the peach flowers were in full bloom. Yun Shang remembered that Liu Yinfeng had said that the peach flowers were the national flowers in the state of Xia. It was true, but in this rich garden, they were less gentle and noble.

"Your Lordship, this is the men who served in the crown prince's house. Before the lady of the crown prince left the crown prince's house, she took some away, leaving behind more than two hundred people. Your highness, do you want them to stay here or send away all of them and buy some other people? " Liu Wenan turned his head slightly to look at Luo Qingyan.

Luo Qingyan was silent for a moment, and then looked at Yun Shang. "Shang'er, what do you think?"

Yun Shang glanced at the servants. They were all ordinary servants. Although the crown prince was gone, his wife must have taken the person who was in charge of the imperial household away. But there must be spies in the middle of them. Yun Shang continued after a moment's reflection, "it's our first time here. I'm afraid they know the rules of the state of Xia better than us. It's not bad to keep them here. The thirty-two servants we used to have in the state of Ning can serve in our yard. The rest of them don't need to be changed too much. I think the Butler also has the ability to running the mansion. We can just leave all the domestic affairs to him. "

Luo Qingyan also nodded. "Just do as her highness ordered."

"Since the emperor has given the prince the permission, your highness will have the right to decide what to do with it. I've brought you here and your wife. I'll go back to the palace and report to his majesty," continued Liu Wenan.

Luo Qingyan nodded, turned around and asked the butler to send him away. Then he looked at the two hundred servants standing in the courtyard and asked indifferently, "do you have some quiet rooms in this mansion?"
