Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Chapter 32 What qualifications do you have to ask about who I hire?

Suddenly I had the illusion that I was lucky in this life.

And Su Rong is not stupid either.

After explaining the matter, she thought it necessary to tell Yan Chu, so as to avoid being taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives in the future and alienating their relationship.

She took the initiative to come to Yayuan and have dinner with him.

"Why are you so busy lately?"

There are six dishes and one soup on the table, which are a must for Yan Chu's meal, so even if two more people come, it should be enough.

Unlike Shen Zhishu's place, you have to report in advance if you want to eat.

Somehow, Yan Chu, looking at the exquisite dishes, suddenly recalled the scene when Shen Zhishu peeled shrimps for him that night.

Su Rong was starving, so she picked up the braised pork and ate it with big mouthfuls. Although it didn't look very good, it was not rude either. Besides, watching her eat made her appetite whet.

Yan Chu smiled and picked up some food for her.

"I'm busy with official duties. What about you? How are the arrangements for the scientific expedition going?"

"There are a lot of rules. I am only responsible for defense and cooperating with the examiners."

Su Rong also talked about his own defense.

She also pointed out all the examiners one by one. Each of them had their own strengths and weaknesses. She spared no effort to tell Yan Chu, hoping to help him in the future.

But Yan Chu's attention was somewhat attracted by a plate of shrimps tonight.

Because Su Rong likes spicy food, she added a lot of red peppers and Sichuan peppercorns to stir-fry. It looked very fragrant, but Yan Chu had no appetite tonight and just peeled them for her.

"I heard that Butler Zhou is ill. How is he?"

Su Rong didn't notice that Yan Chu was absent-minded. After eating and drinking, he started talking about his own business.

"It's just a cold. It should be fine after some time."

"He handed the mess in the backyard to me, but you know, I have a job to do and I don't have time to take care of the backyard, so I asked an expert to help me deal with it. What do you think?"

Su Rong talked about her difficulties.

She is different from the women in the backyard. She is an official appointed by the imperial court.

Why not let Concubine Shen take care of it?

Yan Chu certainly understood that she was incapable of doing these chores, but he also subconsciously felt it was strange. Instead of looking for someone else, it would be better to let Concubine Shen be responsible for it and let her take charge. It should be more appropriate.

But thinking of Su Rong's attitude towards Shen Zhishu, he didn't mention it.

"Who is the expert Rong'er is talking about?"

Yan Chu didn't object, and smiled as he led her to the yard.

After a while of stretching their muscles, the two of them exchanged martial arts skills.

"I brought her from the Marquis's Mansion, Nanny Zhang. She used to be the head nanny beside grandma. She's very capable. Mother said that her housekeeping ability is not inferior to any mistress. I believe that with her, she will be able to manage the palace in an orderly manner, so that we don't have to worry about anything."

Speaking of this person, Su Rong felt a little proud.

The original owner was cowardly and was not liked by Aunt Zhang, but now she is different. Aunt Zhang respects her very much. She thinks she has conquered this arrogant old nanny, and now she is happier to have her by her side.

She didn't notice at all that Yan Chu's expression changed because of the Nanny Zhang she mentioned, and there was even a flash of strong dissatisfaction and anger in his eyes for a second.

But in a flash, he regained his composure.

"This person is not suitable. If Rong'er wants to find someone to manage the household, she can look for one in the palace. We have many capable maids around us. There is no need to invite someone from the Marquis's Mansion."

He still explained to Su Rong calmly.

"That won't work. Find someone from the palace to do it. If it gets out, then I'm useless. I have to use my own people."

"Madame Zhang, is she yours?"

The anger that Yan Chu had been hiding suddenly burst out at this moment, and he couldn't hide it at all.

"Of course, she has no one to rely on in the Marquis' Mansion. Now she can only rely on me. Don't worry, she is capable of doing things and nothing will go wrong."

Su Rong didn't notice the sinister look that flashed across his eyes, and continued talking to herself.

"There is no need for outsiders to interfere in the affairs of my palace. If you are too busy to take care of it, I will make arrangements."

Yan Chu said coldly.

Su Rong was a little stunned. Now, she could hear that his tone was unhappy and his face became even gloomier.

I didn't think much about it, but when I heard that he had other arrangements and said that the person she had invited was an outsider, I immediately thought of Shen Zhishu.

"How do you arrange it? Hand it over to your Concubine Shen?"

Just like what that damn girl Pan Xi said, he wants the concubine to take care of it?

"It's better than you asking outsiders to interfere in the affairs of the inner courtyard of my palace."

Yan Chu hadn't had this idea at first, but now he was very angry about her behavior.

"Your inner courtyard? Isn't that my home? Nanny Zhang is also my person now, why can't she be in charge? I must have her."

When Su Rong thought that this man still remembered Shen Zhishu, her mentality instantly exploded and she even lost her mind.

"Su Rong, this is the Prince Qin's residence. I have the final say on everything."

Yan Chu also looked at the strong-willed woman in front of him with cold eyes.

Su Rong looked in disbelief at the man in front of her who was peeling shrimps for her just a second ago. Now he was giving her a cold face and was even yelling at her. Was he threatening her?

So in the final analysis, this is his Prince Qin's Palace, and not her home at all?

Just for Shen Zhishu, he could actually quarrel with me to this extent?

"Send Aunt Zhang away tonight, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."

Even without waiting for her to speak, Yan Chu coldly left a message and stormed out.

This is his yard, but he left her here?

Su Rong was furious. She smashed two pots of flowers and stormed back to Jingyi Courtyard.

After not seeing each other for several days, the two parted on bad terms.

He said he wanted to send Nanny Zhang away?

But she didn't.

She is her own person, why should he have the final say?

But don't forget, she is powerful and influential too, so she doesn't have to listen to him, right?

Yan Chu went out and did not return all night.

The next morning, Shen Zhishu knew that Su Rong had gone out angrily to do business.

It seems that the two of them parted on bad terms last night.

"Madame Wang, go and get some information. Has the person the princess brought back been sent away?"

The prince will definitely not tolerate Nanny Zhang.

But I don’t know if this was already said last night.

Nanny Wang usually likes to inquire about news, but when she saw her master needed it, she quickly ran away.

When she came back, she not only brought news from Nanny Zhang, but also learned from the head kitchen that the princess and the prince had a big fight in the yard last night and parted on bad terms.

"That Madam Zhang is still in Jingyi Courtyard, and she has already rearranged the servants in the courtyard. She herself... I heard that she has already started checking the account books of the palace."

"really?"

Shen Zhishu frowned. He never expected that Nanny Zhang would be so quick, and he never expected Su Rong to be so careless.

"It's absolutely true. I heard that Nanny Zhang even asked someone to go to the accounting office to invite someone. With that kind of momentum, everyone knew that she was working for the princess, and no one dared to stop her."

That's bad.

This Nanny Zhang is Concubine Yue’s person.
