All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert

Lin Ruansu tilted her head to the sky and asked Luo Mei, "Who is worshipping in front?"

Luo Mei said softly, "My lord, since you have been in a coma for the past few days, only General Fuguo and a few other generals are guarding the mourning hall."

The general who was guarding the body in the Princess's Mansion at this time was the Princess's supporter.

Lin Ruan thought about it and ordered, "Please invite the generals to the side hall. I will go and thank them."

"Yes." Luo Mei saluted and left.

Lin Ruan packed up and slowly walked towards the side hall. "Seventeen, the death of the princess is such a big thing, but the generals have not been reprimanded by the court?"

The system checked, "Host, except for the Left General who was demoted to General of the Central Army for failing to protect his master, the positions of the other generals seem to have remained unchanged..."

"What happened next?" Lin Ruan asked.

The system didn't understand what Lin Ruan was asking.

"Did this General get promoted later?"

The system paused for a moment before displaying the fates of several generals to Lin Ruan. The Auxiliary General had his family confiscated and his ancestry destroyed, while the Right General died on the battlefield due to a lack of support. However, this General of the Central Army ultimately became the new Auxiliary General, and several of his lieutenants also rose to high positions in the military.

"Heh." Lin Ruan sneered.

The system was startled. "Host, what are you laughing at?"

"I love to laugh by nature." Lin Ruan said, and then walked into the side hall.

system:???

"I've met the princess."

Lin Ruan took a quick look. There were six generals in total. General Fuguo was the oldest and a mentor and friend to the Princess. Lin Ruan personally helped General Fuguo to his feet. "Grandpa Yang, please stand up. Uncles, please stand up as well."

Tears welled up in her eyes. "Ruan'er is not feeling well. I'm sorry to bother you grandpas and uncles for the next two days."

"What are you talking about, Princess? The princess and her husband are not here, and this is what we should do." The auxiliary general's tone was a little harsh, and even contained a hint of anger at the lack of fighting spirit.

The other generals remained silent, and Lin Ruan observed them calmly.

"There's one more thing I'd like to ask you, grandpas and uncles," Lin Ruan lowered her head, her voice trembling. "After I bring my parents back to the capital, I'll be living there permanently. Mother had a lot of official duties during her lifetime, and she didn't fully teach me how to manage household affairs. Grandpa Yang, the uncles, could you allow Grandma Yang and the aunts to come and teach me?"

General Fuguo opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something. He frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with Lin Ruan's weakness.

But he looked at Lin Ruan, who seemed like a little white flower that couldn't withstand the wind and rain, and finally said nothing. He sighed and said, "Okay, I promise you."

After he finished speaking, he seemed to have aged a few years, which was unbearable to look at.

But Lin Ruan couldn't bear it.

She said softly, "Let's start with Grandma Yang. Each of you should come and teach Lin Ruan for two days." She looked at General Fuguo and said, "Grandpa Yang, please send someone to invite Grandma Yang over now."

The auxiliary general closed his eyes and nodded, his tone heavy, "Okay, I'll call her over right away." He added, "Then we will leave for the front hall first. After all, after the news of the princess's awakening spreads, there will probably be many people coming to pay their respects. We will go to the front hall to help entertain them."

"Okay, thank you all for your hard work, generals." Lin Ruan said.

Lin Ruan watched the generals leave, then turned to An Lan and others around her. Among the four maids around her, An Lan and Kong Zhu both had some martial arts skills, while Rouju was better at housework. The four were headed by Luo Mei.

"Luo Mei, go get the butler for me," Lin Ruan ordered. From the memories she had received, she knew that the butlers in both the Northern Frontier and the capital's Princess Mansions were trusted confidants of the original owner's parents. With the situation in the mansions now unstable, her first choices were the butler and the four maids who attended to her.

"Your servant pays his respects to the princess." The housekeeper arrived quickly.

"Uncle Lin, you know the situation at the mansion. Someone from the capital will definitely come to take me away from Northern Frontier. The Princess of Northern Frontier's mansion still needs you to look after it, so I need..."

Lin Ruan had the butler privately find trusted individuals to teach Luo Mei and the other four. Luo Mei focused on housekeeping and business, Rou Ju on housekeeping and household affairs, An Lan on household affairs and martial arts, and Kong Zhu on martial arts and business. This focused approach allowed them to develop their strengths and, to a certain extent, complement each other. Each was individually taught by a trusted individual recommended by the butler—this was the most comprehensive arrangement Lin Ruan could come up with in the short time she had spent traveling through time.

The confidants recommended by the housekeeper were also identified as reliable during the system's screening.

She didn't dare to bet that not a single word of her would leak out of the Princess's Mansion. What she wanted was that even those hiding in the dark could only gather fragmented information and couldn't figure out what she was trying to do.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Lin Ruan thought for a moment and instructed the housekeeper, "Also, take inventory of the cash here. Those soldiers who died have followed my parents their entire lives, and they are loyal and reliable. We cannot let the families of these soldiers feel disheartened."

"Yes, Princess." Luo Mei took the order and left. The others also dispersed and started to get busy.

Lin Ruan returned to her bedroom alone, took a deep breath and closed her eyes - she knew that the death of the eldest princess and her husband was not simple, because even she herself was poisoned by a chronic poison.
