The tea was still warm; the Second Prince prepared it quite quickly.

Su Tang smiled and replied, "I just drank some in the house, I'm not thirsty now."

"Well, that's good." Perhaps it was inconvenient to talk in the car. After Zhao Ma placed the tea, she retreated to the side of the car and said nothing more. She just looked at Su Tang with a loving face.

The carriage was very stable throughout the journey, and Su Tang leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to take a nap.

She felt the condition of the road. After all, it was a wooden shaft, so vibration was inevitable.

Soon Su Tang felt the change in the road surface below, and she must have left the Second Prince's mansion.

After traveling for a while, the carriage stopped.

Su Tang seemed to be asleep. She didn't open her eyes, but continued to doze off with even breathing.

"Doctor Su, we're here." Nanny Zhao's voice sounded in her ears.

"Well, I fell asleep." Su Tang slowly opened her eyes and rubbed her shoulders against the car wall.

Seeing Su Tang wake up, Nanny Zhao smiled dotingly, then lifted the curtain, and someone outside the carriage reached out and helped Nanny Zhao get out.

Then Nanny Zhao stood by the car, waiting to pick up Su Tang in person.

Su Tang put her hand in Nanny Zhao's hand and stepped on the step stool to get off the carriage.

The yard in front of her was not small. Su Tang looked around and saw that the courtyard wall extended very far.

However, there is only a wooden plaque with the words "Plum Courtyard" hanging on the main gate of this courtyard.

"Let's go in."

The main gate of the yard was already open, and several servants were standing at the gate to welcome Su Tang and the others.

If it wasn't night time, this scene would definitely attract onlookers.

Su Tang entered the mansion under the guidance of Nanny Zhao, and the vermilion door behind her slowly closed.

When they arrived at the mansion, Madam Zhao started talking again, "This is the courtyard that the master mentioned, it's called Plum Courtyard.

There are many plum blossoms planted in the mansion, but now is not the season to enjoy them. In winter, when the red plum blossoms are in full bloom, it will be a very beautiful sight against the snow.”

"Yeah." Su Tang nodded slightly in response. Most of the servants around her were holding lanterns, so they could get a rough idea of the scenery as they passed by under the moonlight.

Su Tang and the others are now in the front yard. There are no tall trees in the yard. There are two flower beds on each side of the yard, and it is unknown what kind of plants are planted in them.

Passing through the main hall in the front yard, this should be the place to entertain guests.

Nanny Zhao took Su Tang all the way to the back and only gave a brief introduction in the main hall.

After passing through two more halls, Su Tang was finally brought into a large courtyard.

"This is the main room of the Plum Courtyard. They have already cleaned up everything inside. Please see if there is anything missing and I will ask them to fill it for you."

The curtain of the main room was lifted, and the wooden door inside was opened. A number of candles were lit in the room, making it extremely bright.

The layout of these ancient mansions is the same. The only difference may be the furniture and furnishings inside the house.

The main house is divided into three rooms. The left side is the sleeping area, the middle has a large round table, and the right side is arranged as a small study.

"It's quite late today, young master, you should take a rest today. I'll ask someone to get you some water for washing. In fact, there is a small hot spring pool behind this yard, which is full of running water."

"Well, let's leave it at that for today." Although Su Tang had slept during the day, she was still a little tired from seeing the Second Prince and from being highly alert since arriving at the Second Prince's residence.

She also wanted to go to bed early.

After hearing what Su Tang said, Nanny Zhao stepped back first.

Su Tang then heard the instructions given by Madam Zhao and the servants in the yard.

It was nothing more than repeating the Second Prince's words and asking them to serve wholeheartedly.

It is not convenient to announce Su Tang's identity to the public now. Su Tang can be regarded as a survivor of the murder of Concubine Su. If the Queen knew about it first, it is not known whether it would bring any trouble to Su Tang.

What's more, the second prince still needs Su Tang's treatment, so it is not convenient to expose Su Tang's identity so early.

The people below were extremely efficient. Two servants carried a bucket of water and placed it in the room where they slept.

Then another maid came in with hot water and toiletries.

"Your servants Chunmei and Xiamei are here to help the master wash up." The maid who poured water went out, and two well-dressed maids came in with trays in their hands and saluted Su Tang.

On their trays, one was filled with clothes, and the other was filled with some elegant jewelry.

"No need. I don't like having someone serving me. Just leave the clothes there. I'll call you to change the water after I'm done washing them." Su Tang waved her hand and said.

"Yes." Chunmei and Xiamei responded at the same time, put the tray on the table beside them, and then they withdrew.

The door was closed and Su Tang walked around the room again.

Then she walked to the two trays, swept her hands, and returned to the space with the clothes.

When taking a bath, she is still used to using running water.

After taking a shower and changing into new clothes, Su Tang came out of the space and poured all her toiletries into the water, making some water sounds, pretending that she was taking a shower.

After a while, the water had become a little cold, and Su Tang called the people outside to come in and remove the bathtub.

At this time, Aunt Zhao had not left yet. She came in, took a look at Su Tang who had changed into a new dress, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Then rest first, young master."

That night, Su Tang slept soundly.

The next day, Su Tang still slept until she woke up naturally.

It was quiet outside, with only the occasional chirping of insects.

Today, Su Tang has nothing to do.

But I still have to go to the Qian Mansion and tell the Qian family.

Moreover, she also has a "driver" who also needs to find an opportunity to bring back to the space.

Hearing the sound of Su Tang getting up in the house, the maid who had been waiting in the yard said outside the door: "Miss, you are awake. The servants will help you wash up."

Su Tang knew that these were things to do in the morning to wash face and brush teeth.

She responded, walked to the door and unbolted it.

Four little maids came in one after another carrying basins of water and other things.

They put the things in place one by one, bowed to Su Tang and said, "Your servants, Chunmei, Xiamei, Qiumei, and Dongmei, will help the young lady wash up."

"Yeah." Su Tang nodded.

Chunmei immediately soaked the handkerchief, wrung it half dry and handed it to Su Tang.

Yesterday, Su Tang didn't let them help her take a bath. They knew that Su Tang didn't like being touched, so today they helped her very considerately.

After Su Tang finished washing up, Dongmei said to her, "Miss, please move to the middle hall. We will bring breakfast here."

"it is good."

The breakfast was quite exquisite, and it also included some of the snacks that Su Tang had eaten at the Second Prince's place yesterday. I guess the Second Prince had given them special instructions.
