The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise
Chapter 91 Shen Jiarou Gets Rich
Nanny Wang waited for her to dance for a while before interrupting her.
"Princess, take a rest."
Nanny Su echoed, "Yes, Princess."
Nanny Wang and Nanny Su went to find Nanny He, while Shen Jiarou took Ruan Qingling and Zhen Luosang to pay a visit to the master and his wife.
Seeing that he had returned safely, the couple looked at each other in relief.
"Princess, how is the palace?"
Shen Jiarou sat at the round table. "Fortunately, I met the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Crown Prince."
After Shen Jiarou left, Mr. Xie stood with his back to the ground. Su Yuwan knew what was in her husband's mind, so she just sat quietly with him.
Back in the main courtyard, Shen Jiarou lay on the couch, humming a song with her eyes closed.
Ruan Qingling and Zhen Luosang listened to the beautiful song and looked at each other in surprise.
"My Lady, what song are you singing? I have never heard it before."
Hearing Ruan Qingling's question, Shen Jiarou slowly opened her eyes.
"The evening rain is like a painting, a piece of paper conveys the sorrow of parting in late autumn, who is crying in the attic like rain. The west building is drenched with smoke and willows, which are slightly cool and lack shame... How about it, the lyrics are beautiful, right?"
The two nodded. At this time, Element Frost and Yaer came back and bowed slightly.
"The county lord."
Elemental Frost stared at his princess with curious eyes, "Princess, is the palace beautiful?"
Shen Jiarou smiled faintly, her eyes sparkling.
"The buildings are beautiful, the people are beautiful, even the Queen Mother is beautiful."
The two looked at each other in surprise, and Yaer said in amazement, "But didn't the Queen Mother already..."
Shen Jiarou pursed her lips as if smiling. "There is a phrase called 'still charming'. Not only that, the Queen Mother is also very graceful, kind and amiable. Sister Qingling, Sister Luosang, right?"
Seeing Elemental Frost and the other man looking over, they both nodded.
Elemental Frost Eye Dessert was a pity. Zheng Shutong walked over, bowed, stood up, and patted her shoulder.
"Next time you go to the palace, let the princess take you two to see the world."
Shen Jiarou nodded in agreement, "Shutong is right. Next time I go to the palace, I will bring you two with me."
When the two heard this, they became terrified. Zhen Luosang looked at their expressions with a hint of contempt.
"Look at how capable you two are. You will definitely pass this test. After all, we are the princess's first-class maids."
As the eldest maid, Ruan Qingling fully agreed with Zhen Luosang's words.
"Su Shuang, Ya'er, Luo Sang is right. When we are free on weekdays, Luo Sang and I will take the time to teach you the court etiquette, in case you need it someday."
Shen Jiarou agreed with this very much, "Thank you for your hard work, my two little fairy sisters."
When they heard this, they lowered their heads shyly.
Princess, it's so embarrassing.
Seeing that the two were shy, Shen Jiarou covered her face with a handkerchief and smiled.
On the same afternoon, the Queen came to the Queen Mother's palace to pay her respects.
Originally, the concubines were supposed to pay their respects every day, but the empress dowager found it troublesome and only allowed them to pay their respects on the first, fifth, tenth, fifteenth, twentieth, twenty-fifth and thirty-seventh days. Other concubines were to pay their respects on the fifteenth of every month, and her peace was not to be disturbed on other days.
Originally, the Queen Mother wanted to cancel it for even one day, but considering the large number of concubines in the harem, she still had to give them a warning from time to time.
The queen looked at the queen mother sitting on the phoenix chair with respectful eyes.
"Mother, are you feeling well these days?"
It was common knowledge in the harem that the Queen Mother had sleep disorders, and even the imperial doctors were helpless.
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's graceful face was filled with smiles.
"Thank you Queen for your concern. I am much better now. I have been sleeping one hour longer than before and I have never woken up in a single sleep without nightmares."
The queen was stunned when she heard this. How come the empress dowager's old illness, which had lasted for so many years, suddenly got better?
Seeing the Queen's shocked and confused expression, the Queen Mother pursed her lips and smiled.
"Speaking of which, it was all thanks to the sachet that Yongkang sent me."
The queen was stunned. "Yi Yi? Is this sachet so effective?"
The Queen Mother also smiled in surprise.
"Yes, now I can sleep an extra hour every day, and I feel better."
It's actually much better, I don't feel so weak all over.
The queen smiled gently, "I didn't expect that the princess is such a clever little girl."
Originally, the queen did not have much hope for the little girl of seven or eight years old, and just treated her normally, but she never thought that the emperor had always liked her.
Judging from the empress dowager's expression, she also likes the little girl very much.
"If your mother likes that girl Yi Yi, why not let her stay with you in the palace more often?"
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "No need. She has just arrived in the capital and has many things to familiarize herself with in the palace. Let her finish her work."
The queen nodded after hearing this and said, "That makes sense. You can always be summoned to the palace. There is no need to rush at this moment."
The Queen Mother smiled happily and said, "That's what I meant. The Queen understands my feelings."
The Queen was flattered to be suddenly praised by the Queen Mother.
"The Queen Mother is joking."
"By the way, how is the prince doing lately?"
Thinking of her son, the queen's eyes became even gentler.
"The Emperor recently praised the Prince."
The Queen Mother was delighted when she heard this, "That's great, the father and son should spend more time together."
On the way back to the palace, the queen sat upright on the sedan chair.
Nanny Luo glanced at the queen and followed respectfully all the way.
"Xiu He, tell me, how does the Emperor's love for Princess Yongkang compare to that for the Crown Prince?"
Nanny Luo's maiden name was Xiuhe. When she heard the Queen's question, she was slightly stunned.
"It looks different. Compared to the princess, she is more like a daughter who pampers and loves her."
Thinking of the emperor's recent performance, the queen nodded silently.
"You're right."
In the storeroom of Princess Yongkang's mansion, Shen Jiarou was shocked to see the room full of gold, silver and jewelry.
"So many."
Nanny He sneered, "Princess, here is the reward from the Emperor for your meritorious service, and also the reward from the Queen of Hui Meng."
That’s a lot.
Shen Jiarou took the list handed to her by Zhang Zirou and looked at it.
“Except for the four additional counties of Qinghe, Huacha, Suining, and Xinji that were added when the princess was conferred the title of a princess, one-fifth of the tax revenue from each county will go to the princess’ mansion.
He also rewarded Huacha County, the Princess's Mansion in the capital, and a restaurant in the capital.
Cloth: five pieces of colorful cloud brocade; five pieces of crepe; five pieces of brocade; five pieces of Tang brocade, a total of twenty pieces.
Silver and money: two thousand taels of silver; one hundred taels of gold.
Jewelry bracelets, two pairs of gold bracelets; two pairs of silver bracelets; two pairs of jade bracelets, and eight pairs of bamboo bracelets.
The headdress includes eight pairs of jade hairpins.
A pair of silk baby's breath beads flowers with tassels.
A pair of purple pearl flower comb hairpins.
The earrings include a pair of long tassel earrings; a pair of long tassel pearl jade earrings.
In addition, he was rewarded with two palace maids, twenty palace maids, and twenty guards.
In addition, there is a small box of gold mule nuggets (worth one thousand taels) and a small box of silver nuggets (worth five hundred taels).”
Shen Jiarou was amazed when she heard this, "The emperor is really rich."
Everyone burst out laughing when they heard this, and Nanny Wang was helpless.
"Princess, the emperor is the ruler of a country after all. In addition to the national treasury, he also has a lot of private property."
Shen Jiarou finally understood why everyone wanted to get promoted and make money. It was true that getting promoted could make one rich.
Take her for example, she is now a princess and the reward is so generous. If she makes greater contributions, the reward will be even greater.
