Shocked! The salty concubine was spoiled by the cold prince

Pei Xu couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

Although he didn't know Gu Jiaorong's family very well, he knew a little about it.

"If her family members come again in the future, they will be stopped outside the door."

Pei Xu spoke lightly, as if it was just a trivial matter.

"This... is Aunt Gu's family after all. Isn't this arrangement inappropriate?"

Fuan spoke with some uncertainty, he didn't expect the prince to react like this.

If Aunt Gu knew about this, she would probably blame him for being nosy.

"His family treated her badly, and he probably came here today to ask for money."

Pei Xu knew it even without asking.

"With her personality, if she didn't have a maid to serve her, she would probably suffer."

In Pei Xu's heart, Gu Jiaorong is a bit spoiled.

If he gets angry, his eyes might turn red like a little rabbit.

Thinking of this, Pei Xu couldn't help but recall how she looked when she was bullied.

Unfortunately, he still had unfinished official business and could not appear by Gu Jiaorong's side immediately.

"Your Highness is right. I will give the order when I return to the palace."

Fu'an didn't expect that his prince would be so thoughtful one day, but this was also a good thing for Aunt Gu.

"Well, if she doesn't ask about this, there's no need to tell her about it."

Pei Xu nodded and put the handkerchief in his hand away carefully, as if he didn't realize that this was Gu Jiaorong's casual return gift.

Seeing this, Fu'an felt more and more that Aunt Gu was different in the prince's heart.

After all, when the prince coaxed Shen Zhaohua, he was extremely perfunctory.

Shen Zhaohua has the potential to be a love-sick person. Even in this situation, he still wants to win back Pei Xu's heart.

She held the brush and thought hard but couldn't come up with any good suggestions for agricultural development.

However, it did make her think of some other solutions - upgrading the irrigation water truck.

Although there were farming and irrigation methods in this era, they were not as advanced as those in later generations.

Wind power and electricity are not feasible, but it is possible to improve practicality by upgrading them.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhaohua immediately started drawing the blueprint.

However, she was not very good at painting, and the first time she drew something it looked a bit weird.

But after she painted for an afternoon, she gradually started to get the idea.

Shen Zhaohua was extremely grateful that he had a good memory and he actually drew it according to his memory.

However, this is just a drawing on paper, and whether it can be used remains to be verified.

Shen Zhaohua decided to take the blueprint to see Pei Xu. He would definitely be very happy and would once again keep his eyes on her.

As for Gu Jiaorong, it was just a small bump in their love journey and not worth mentioning.

"Furong, go and ask if the prince has returned?"

Shen Zhaohua felt refreshed, and even when talking to Furong, he was as calm as before.

Furong had long been accustomed to Shen Zhaohua's mood swings, and only responded softly, "Yes."

This matter is not difficult to find out. After all, although the palace is big, there are not many masters.

Furong came back soon.

"Miss, the prince hasn't come back today, but his steward Fu'an did come back once."

As Furong said this, she raised her eyes slightly to see Shen Zhaohua's reaction.

"Has Fu'an been back?"

Shen Zhaohua frowned. She knew Fu'an. Although he was the general manager, he only served Pei Xu and worked only for Pei Xu. His return must have been at Pei Xu's instruction.

"Where did Fuan go?"

Shen Zhaohua keenly felt that Furong did not continue talking because she knew that speaking out would only make her angry.

As expected, Furong said in a low voice, "I went to Aunt Gu's place to deliver something."

It’s Gu Jiaorong again.

Shen Zhaohua's expression became ugly, and the strength of his slender hands gripping the pen became stronger, as if he wanted to break the pen in his hand.

"This Aunt Gu is really amazing. She even made Pei Xu think of her even when he was busy with official duties."

Shen Zhaohua sneered and said that she really shouldn't underestimate Gu Jiaorong.

Furong naturally didn't dare to respond. Besides, matters between the masters were not something a maid like her could discuss.

"Are you sure Pei Xu? When he comes back, tell him that I want to see him. I have something he wants."

Although Shen Zhaohua didn't want their love to be mixed with too many impurities, she also knew that if she didn't use extraordinary means to keep Pei Xu at this time, Pei Xu's heart would really belong to someone else.

"Yes."

Furong nodded, not daring to ask more questions.

She had been serving in the palace since she was a child. She was a very sensible maid who knew what to say and what not to ask.

Ever since she started serving Shen Zhaohua, she has always been cautious.

Even if Shen Zhaohua talked to her about equality, she never felt that they were equal.

When Pei Xu came back, it was already late.

Furong didn't dare to disturb the prince directly, so she went to find Fu'an.

Fu'an has always had a say in the prince's affairs, so it is appropriate to report this matter to him now.

"General Manager Fu'an, please tell the prince on my behalf that Miss Shen insists on seeing the prince and says she has something the prince wants."

Furong spoke with her head lowered and her eyes looking amiable. She always kept a low profile when facing Fuan.

After being in the mansion for a long time, they all knew Fu'an's status.

Fu'an was also very kind to these maids and never criticized them.

"It's not easy for you to serve Miss Shen, so leave this matter to me."

Fu'an nodded. It was he who arranged Furong to be with Shen Zhaohua.

Shen Zhaohua has a bit of naive arrogance, and ordinary maids probably cannot serve her. However, Furong has a kind personality and will not betray the prince.

Fuan is very good at judging people, and Furong has done a good job these days.

"Thank you, General Fu'an."

Furong thanked him with a smile and did not waste Fuan's time here any longer.

"I will go back first. If I go back late, Miss Shen will probably be unhappy."

Shen Zhaohua's temper has gradually worsened these days. Although he doesn't hit her, he occasionally speaks sharply.

Furong didn't know the prince's attitude towards Shen Zhaohua, and didn't want to cause trouble, so she always endured it.

Fuan waved his hand and asked her to go back first.

When Pei Xu saw Fu'an come in, he knew that Shen Zhaohua wanted to see him again.

"Your Highness guessed correctly. This Miss Shen must have something she hasn't handed over yet. Furong just came over and said that Miss Shen wanted to see Your Highness."

Fu'an smiled and said that he knew everything about Pei Xu and Shen Zhaohua from beginning to end.

For some unknown reason, Shen Zhaohua chose the prince and appeared beside the prince with the blueprint for making gunpowder.

Fu'an had also investigated this Miss Shen. Her appearance was really strange, so they had been cooperating with Shen Zhaohua.

Although Fu'an didn't know why Miss Shen thought the prince was a gentle person, the prince also cooperated with her in order to obtain the gunpowder map.
