The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

It was another sunny day. Ouyang Yunyao was sitting in the warm sunshine in the courtyard, thinking about the suppression of the kitchen manager and the handing over to the government yesterday. It finally frightened some people in the mansion. These people would be quiet for a while, and other things would be dealt with slowly.

Now my courtyard is full of my own people, and I feel comfortable living here. I still have to live in this palace for another year, although it is a bit depressing. But fortunately, I don’t have to accompany anyone to eat, drink, or sleep, so being a princess is not a big deal.

Let the three little girls who grew up with the original owner in the border town come back to his yard, choose two more little maids to do rough work, and build a small kitchen in the yard so that it is convenient to eat anything. Living here without being disturbed is not bad.

After everything is settled, I will go back to the mansion to see my grandmother and the others. Now is also the time to find trouble with those who killed the original owner, just to collect some interest first.

Xiao Cui brewed a pot of good tea and placed it on the round stone table next to her.

"Miss, tomorrow is the Spring Flower Banquet held in the palace. You and the prince need to go to the palace."

"Oh yes, I forgot about that. This is my first time attending the Spring Flower Banquet in the palace. I wonder what it is like?"

"Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu know about this. They are with the old lady."

"Yes, go call them over and ask them. I also happen to have something to say to them."

Xiao Cui quickly called two maids and came to Ouyang Yunyao.

"The lady is here."

"Princess." "Princess."

"All of you go get a stool and sit down. I have something to say to you."

"Okay." The three of them sat down at the table.

Ouyang Yunyao asked first: "Granny Li, Granny Liu, have you settled down?"

"The princess and her old servants have all been settled." replied Mrs. Li.

"Okay, then I'll assign tasks to you. Granny Li, you will be in charge of everything in the courtyard and you will be the manager of Yunqing Courtyard."

"Princess, I will take good care of it."

"In a few days, we will go back to the Duke of Huguo's mansion to visit our grandmother, and bring Mei'er and the other two with us. Granny Li, please find two more skilled maids in the mansion to do the rough work."

"Princess, please come and see me. Please bring us old servants with you. I miss the old lady." The two old women's eyes turned red as they spoke.

"Don't worry, mother-in-law, let's go back to see grandma together."

"Granny Liu, you can cook, right? Let's build a small kitchen in the yard. You can manage the small kitchen and cook meals. We will cook in the yard instead of going to the big kitchen. We will also have a maid to help you."

"Princess, that's great. I like cooking and can make snacks for you. I can do it all by myself."

"It would be easier for Granny Liu to arrange for one more person. Find an honest and hardworking little girl in the mansion and tell me, and I will arrange it for her."

"I'll talk to the housekeeper about building a small kitchen later."

Xiao Cui smiled happily and said, "Princess, since we have our own small kitchen in the future, we can cook whatever we want!"

"Of course it is. I'm just making you greedy!"

"Princess, that's great."

"Grandma, you two have been accompanying Grandma in Kyoto for many years. There is something I want to ask you. Is there any saying about the Spring Flower Banquet?"

Old Lady Liu: "Yes, yes, Princess, tomorrow is the annual Spring Flower Festival. This old servant and Old Lady Li have both accompanied your grandmother to attend the Spring Flower Banquet in the palace."

Li Pozi: "Princess, the Spring Flower Festival is a festival for young men and women to enjoy the flowers. The Spring Flower Festival lasts for three days, and the capital is very lively during these three days, just like a festival. On the first day of the Spring Flower Festival every year, the palace will hold a Spring Flower Banquet at noon. Civil and military officials above the third rank are invited to bring their female relatives and children to participate. It is an honor to be able to attend the Spring Flower Banquet.

There are many competitions at the Spring Flower Banquet, mainly poetry, but there are others. I am not sure what they are, but the competitions are separate for men and women."

"Princess, the eldest lady won the first place." said Granny Liu.

“My eldest sister is so amazing!”

Granny Li: "Yes, Princess, the eldest lady is a talented woman from Kyoto!"

"Princess, you have to attend this time too, because all the royal family members have to attend."

Xiao Cui: "Princess, this is your first time attending this Spring Flower Banquet. Are you going to be asked to participate in a competition?"

Ouyang Yunyao: "I don't want to compete, but it's inevitable that someone will make trouble for me to compete. After all, there are rumors that I am a idiot and married to Prince Jing. There must be many people who want to embarrass me and attack me."

"Miss, you are not a fool. You are much better than them."

"Miss, you must win first place to show them and make them angry to death."

"Although I don't want to participate and want to leave the opportunity to unmarried women, if no one forces me to participate, I will definitely give you the first place for fun."

Ouyang Yunyao: I have an extraordinary memory for poetry. I can borrow the poems of so many poets and immortals and I will definitely win. This is a fictional era and there should be no poems by those people. I will check it out tonight. As for the guqin competition, the original owner's guqin skills are acceptable. I also liked the guqin very much. I know many modern pieces and some classic ancient pieces. There should be no problem in the competition. Ouyang Yunyao has already predicted that tomorrow will not be peaceful.

"Miss, you don't have new clothes, what are you going to wear?"

"I have a lot of new clothes. I'll go pick one out later."

"Xiao Cui will go to the palace with me tomorrow."

"Okay, miss." Xiao Cui was a little excited.

At this time, Chu Feng brought two little girls in and walked in front of Ouyang Yunyao: "Princess, these are the two maids that the prince sent to you. This is their indenture."

"I've met the princess."

"I've met the princess."

"Okay, thank you, Your Majesty, but please don't give me the indenture contract." This lady will leave in the future.

"This is what the prince said. You must give it to the princess. They will be yours from now on."

"OK then."

"I'll take my leave." Chu Feng turned and left.

Ouyang Yunyao looked at the two girls, both of them were about sixteen or seventeen years old, with clear eyes, tall and thin figures, standing upright, and it seemed that they were both good at kung fu.

One of them has a round face, and the other has a thin face and a pointed chin.

Ouyang Yunyao asked: "What are your names?"

They both said at the same time, "We ask the princess to give us a name."

"What were your original names?"

"The slave An Shiyi."

"The slave An Sixteen."

"You guys are secret guards?" No wonder they are so good at martial arts.

"Yes, Princess, we are the only two women among the secret guards." said the round-faced girl.

Ouyang Yunyao looked at the girl who was speaking and asked, "You are An Shiyi, right? How old are you this year?"

"My lord, I am eighteen this year and she is sixteen."

"Which of you two is better at Kung Fu? What are your specialties?"

"My princess, my kung fu is better than Sixteen's. I am good at using hidden weapons, but Sixteen's Qinggong is better than mine."

"Then do you know what your original last name was?"

"Yes, we both have the surname Xia. She is my cousin. Our family lives on the border of Southern Chu. People from Southern Chu invaded our country and killed our family. The prince saved both of us. At that time, I was nine years old and my cousin was seven."

"Okay, then your name is Xia Yan and her name is Xia Fei. What do you think?"

"Thank you, Princess. I like this name."

"Thank you, Princess. I like it."

"Okay, then you guys take a rest today."

"Grandma Li, take them both and make arrangements."

"Okay, Princess." Granny Li led the two of them away.

"Grandma Liu, go to the mansion and see if there is any suitable maid."

"Okay, Princess."

"Xiao Cui, let's go find the housekeeper and ask him to find some people to build a small kitchen for us."
