Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan

Chapter 289: Licorice Surrenders and Causes Trouble

If Fang Ruo could see it, how could Lin Zhuoyin, who had been with Lily for so many years, not see it?

It's just that Lin Zhuoyin initially chose Lily and Licorice as her personal maids not only because the two knew each other well, but also because Lily and Licorice knew too many of her secrets. After all, the three of them lived in the same room, and Lin Zhuoyin could not hide anything she did from Lily and Licorice.

Just like the encounter with the Fourth Prince, even though Lin Zhuoyin was cautious enough, every time she went to the plum blossom forest, that exquisite dress could never escape the eyes of Lily and Gancao.

Lin Zhuoyin knew that Lily had other thoughts, but she was more afraid that Lily would tell the Fourth Prince the truth behind the wonderful "encounter". Even if the Fourth Prince knew that Lin Zhuoyin's appearance was not an accident, if it was really revealed, how could the Fourth Prince still have any good feelings towards Lin Zhuoyin?

After all, Lin Zhuoyin didn't know the real reason why she was taken into Prince Yong's mansion, so she naturally didn't dare to let Lily and Licorice stay in the palace and could only keep them with her.

Lin Zhuoyin's smile became forced after being reminded by Fang Ruo, "Both Lily and Gancao have been with me in the palace. I originally wanted to lead them to live a good life together, but I didn't expect Lily to have other ideas."

Fang Ruo didn't think Lin Zhuoyin was such a good person. What she said was just an excuse. But exposing it would not benefit her and would offend Lin Zhuoyin. So she said, "Princess is kind, but not everyone is grateful."

After saying that, Fang Ruo said goodbye.

After seeing Fangruo off, Lin Zhuoyin lost her smile completely. She said to Gancao, "Gancao, am I not good enough to you and Baihe?"

Although Gancao is not as sociable and eloquent as Lily, she has a clear understanding of the situation. Lin Zhuoyin brought the two of them with him not just to promote old acquaintances, but Lily is too short-sighted to see it.

Now that Lin Zhuoyin said this, it was also her intention to let Gancao take side. One was a princess from the royal palace, and the other was an inconspicuous little maid. Gancao's choice was obvious.

Gan Cao knelt down at Lin Zhuoyin's feet to show her loyalty, "Princess, you are really good to me and Baihe. If you have a share of food, Baihe and I will have one. I feel like I am dreaming about the life I am living now, but I didn't expect Baihe to still feel unsatisfied."

Although Gancao's words were a bit rough, they were true. In order to win over Baihe and Gancao, Lin Zhuoyin was generous with her rewards. Even the jewelry given by Concubine De was chosen by Baihe and Gancao.

Lin Zhuoyin said with some sadness, "Yeah, we're living such a good life, why do you feel it's not enough? I see that even if Lily sits in my seat, she would feel reluctant." At the end, Lin Zhuoyin's voice revealed viciousness. It's likely that Lily can't be kept.

Licorice lowered his head obediently and said nothing.

Lin Zhuoyin personally asked for the lilies and licorice, so it's not easy to dispose of them casually. One has to wait for the right time to avoid being accused of being ungrateful.

So, Lin Zhuoyin held Gancao's hand intimately and said, "Thinking back to the cold winter, when there was not enough charcoal in the house, the three of us hugged each other to get through it. But now that we are living a good life, people's hearts have changed.

Licorice, I'll have to trouble you with this matter. Please pay more attention to Lily's movements. Don't worry, as long as Lily doesn't harm me, I'm willing to support her for the rest of her life."

Gan Cao swore, "Master treats us so well, Gan Cao is willing to die for the master."

Lin Zhuoyin helped Gancao up. "How can you die? I know you are a good person. I will entrust you with all the big and small matters of Youyangju in the future! Just one thing, don't learn Lily's behavior."

As he spoke, Lin Zhuoyin put a finger-wide silver bracelet on Gancao's wrist.

Licorice held the silver bracelet in his other hand and nodded vigorously.

While the master and servant were communicating with each other, Lily was causing trouble in the kitchen. She had been stumbling all the way here with a lot of anger in her stomach, and when she got to the kitchen, she saw that everyone was busy preparing meals, and no one came to serve her, and her anger immediately exploded.

Lily stopped a eunuch and said sarcastically, "This kitchen is really busy. Even a big person like me is too busy to be seen."

The young eunuch was speechless because it was the first time he saw someone so rude in the kitchen. However, he was holding the crab roe cakes that Concubine Nian had specially requested. You know, crab roe cakes are most delicious when they are fresh out of the oven. If they are cold, they will not taste good. After being stopped by Lily, the young eunuch was afraid of wasting time.

"I am just about to deliver something to Concubine Nian, so I can't delay. If you have any questions, please ask someone else."

The young eunuch spoke sincerely. If it were someone else, they would have let him go. But when Lily heard Nian Shilan's name, she pulled the young eunuch and refused to let him go. "Okay, Concubine Nian is the master, but our princess is not?"

Huang Guiquan happened to see the tug of war. He walked over with a frown and tapped the eunuch on the hat. "Concubine Nian is waiting for you. Why don't you go?"

The young eunuch knew that Huang Guiquan had come to rescue him, so he bowed and ran away with the food box.

Huang Guiquan said to Baihe with a smile, "Which princess is this girl from? I don't think she looks familiar."

Lily said with a fake smile, "I am from Linggege's side, no wonder no one recognizes me."

Even a heartless person like Huang Guiquan would be irritated by Lily's words. People say that a person can be embarrassed by his feelings. Huang Guiquan, the second-in-command in the kitchen, spoke to you in a nice tone, but you still had this attitude.

However, Huang Guiquan is also a tolerant man. He would never do anything to offend anyone before he knows Lin Zhuoyin's background clearly.

"It's dinner time now, and the kitchen is busy. I was shortsighted and didn't see the girl coming. I apologize to her."

After hearing what Huang Guiquan said, Baihe no longer cared about what happened just now. She raised her head and said with a little pride, "The prince will stay at Youyangju today. My princess dare not be disrespectful in front of the prince. Please quickly prepare a table of light and refreshing meals and send them to Youyangju."

Since Huang Guiquan came to work in the kitchen, no one dared to tell him to do things like this, but he still said respectfully, "Don't worry, young lady, I'll send someone to prepare it right away."

When Lily saw that Huang Guiquan agreed, she didn't even wait for the meal to be served, she just rolled up her sleeves and left.

Not to mention Huang Guiquan, everyone who noticed the conflict was dumbfounded. How could this personal maid of Ling Gege be so ignorant of the rules? Huang Guiquan said loudly, "What are you looking at? The masters, big and small, are waiting for dinner!" This was considered to smooth things over.
