Chapter 423 Getting Into The Mansion
In the crown prince''s mansion. Yun Shang lifted her eyes to look at the que 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 nced at her and said, "don''t worry, your highness. The
emperor of the crown prince''s family has already moved to another yard. ording 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,dy Shun Rui, let''s go inside."
Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang. He took her hand and said gently, e 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 ept 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 arge garden, filled with various kinds of precious flowers
and nts, 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 grandndscape paintings. The tables and chairs were
all made of expensive rosewood, and the teacup on the table was also rare colored porcin.
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 thedy 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 nced 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 pce 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?"
After a long time, no one opened his mouth. Yun Shang looked at the people in the yard and thought
for a while. Then a middle-aged man stepped forward and said, "your highness and your highness, the
west yard is quiet and secluded. But it''s the guest yard..."
"That''s Fine, let''s go to the guest yard. Both of us like quiet environment, and we are tired after a long
journey. Please take us to the west yard." Luo Qingyan kept his cold face, whose face was frightening
and cold.
Yun Shang smiled. "We have just arrived at the state of Xia, and many things are not in order yet. You
can do whatever you like before."
Everyone hurriedly responded yes, and the middle-aged man stepped forward, "your Highnesses, this
way please."
Luo Qingyan led Yun Shang to follow the middle-aged man. Yun Shang looked around and heard many
things from the man. That man was called Lin Qun, who was in charge of purchasing goods in the
crown prince''s mansion. The crown prince''s mansion had been founded hundreds of years ago, but
except for the crown prince, it had never been upied by other princes.
Compared to other ces of the crown prince''s house, the West yard was much poorer. There were
only a few plum trees in the courtyard, and behind the yard was a small bamboo forest, which could be
called a quiet ce. To Yun Shang''s satisfaction, she nodded, and asked Qian Yin and the servants
from behind to put down their luggage. Prince Jing also smiled, "I''ll live with you here from now on."
Lin Qun opened his mouth and wanted to say something. But finally he said nothing and went out.
Qian Yin brought servants in and out to ce things. Yun Shang had slept a lot in the carriage these
days, so she didn''t feel sleepy. She held Luo Qingyan''s hand and sat in the room while speaking, "I
always feel that I have suddenly arrived at this strange ce, and I feel a little nervous because I have
met so many strangers. Just now at the gate of the pce, I thought that the empress should be
cunning and scheming. What''s more, as soon as Xia Huanyu came here, he made you the spot of
danger and gave the crown prince''s mansion to you. I wonder what he was up to. "
Luo Jinyan gave a wee smile and shook Yun Shang''s hand, "it doesn''t matter. We just need to be
careful."
Yun Shang nodded. Qian Yin, who was cing the things aside, said, "Your Highness is in the state of
Xia now. You still call him ''Xia Huanyu''. It will be bad if someone hear it."
Yun Shang couldn''t helpughing, "Qian Yin is so considerate."

Hearing this, Qian Yin came over. Seeing that Prince Jing was reading a book beside, she approached
Yun Shang and said, "Your Highness, when will we meet Qian Qian?"
Yun Shang smiled and touched the tip of her nose. "Don''t worry. We just came here. There are many
people watching us. We''d better be careful at this moment."
Qian Yin pouted. When she was about to say something, a voice came from outside. "Your
Highnesses, the doorman is reporting that the Lord Hua Guo and his wife are here."
