The wife of two taels of silver

Lin Haitang had been idle at home for several days and was content every day.

Gu Mo and Gu Zhilan were sent to a private school by Lin Haitang. Without these two noisy children, the Princess's Mansion suddenly became much quieter.

In the princess's mansion, all the chores were done by servants. Lin Haitang now really had everything provided for her, and lived a free and easy life every day.

Lin Haitang sat in the pavilion, eating ice jelly and drinking cold tea. There were three exquisite small cakes on the stone table, and someone was fanning her.

Lin Haitang narrowed his eyes and sighed in his heart: No wonder everyone wants to be rich and powerful like you, this is simply too comfortable.

Gu An was not with Lin Haitang. He was dragged away by Zhao Hongwei to conduct military training and only returned home every night.

Lin Haitang wholeheartedly agreed with Gu An going out to work. Gu An was so energetic that every night, Lin Haitang was afraid to go back to the room and would always linger outside.

Now that Gu An has been out working all day, it will at least consume some of his physical strength, so that Lin Haitang will not be so tired at night.

Liu Wanwan and Liu Sanyou haven't returned yet, but they sent someone a message saying that they will be at the Princess's Mansion in two days.

Zhang Ben and Zhao Xiangjun are in the Princess's Mansion. Zhang Ben is a scholar in charge of all affairs in the mansion, and is committed to making himself a capable steward in the capital. Zhao Xiangjun has been taking care of little Gu Chen, holding him in her arms every day.

Lin Haitang asked someone to set up a swing in the yard so that she could play on it.

After drinking enough water, Lin Haitang stood up and moved to the swing, and chose a little girl to push her.

Before he had a moment's rest, a servant came to report that the prince had arrived.

Lin Haitang was stunned, stood up from the swing, and walked quickly behind the servant to greet the prince.

This prince must have just recovered from his illness, so why is he rushing to me? Lin Haitang was secretly puzzled.

In the hall, the prince stood in the middle of the room with his hands behind his back. He heard the noise and turned around.

The Crown Prince is really good-looking. Lin Haitang sighed in her heart, and then began to salute: "Greetings, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The prince smiled, stepped forward and held Lin Haitang's elbow, saying, "My lord, there's no need to be so polite. I'm here to thank you for saving me."

Lin Haitang quickly glanced at the Crown Prince, feeling that something was amiss with him. She took a step back inconspicuously, creating some distance between them, and replied with a smile, "Your Highness, you're joking. I'm a doctor, and it's my duty to heal. Furthermore, since Your Highness is the Crown Prince, I owe him my life. I can't even say 'thank you.'"

The prince looked at the stereotypical smile on Lin Haitang's face and wanted her to tear off this false mask and show her true nature and true face to him. "I heard that the princess has been married to Gu An for nearly seven years? And they have three sons?"

Lin Haitang's smile was even more fake as she said, "Yes, my husband and I have three children and have been married for seven years."

The prince nodded, and without saying anything else, he raised his hand and asked the servants to bring up the thank-you gifts. He said, "Princess, without you, I'm afraid I would be dead. These are what you deserve."

"I thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May Your Highness live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years." Lin Haitang saluted.

The prince walked to the door, tilted his head slightly, and said, "I think Gu An is not worthy of you."

Lin Haitang smiled, she stood up and replied, "My husband and I love each other very much, so whether we are compatible or not is not a problem. What's more, my husband is a very good person. I like him very much and admire him very much."

The prince raised an eyebrow, said nothing more, and left the room.

After the others had left for a while, Lin Haitang walked to the box, opened it and saw a box full of gold, silver and jewelry.

Lin Haitang had the things put into the warehouse, registered everything, and then let them gather dust in the corner of the warehouse.

Judging from the prince's various behaviors, Lin Haitang felt that she was right. It seemed that the prince really liked her.

The word "fall in love with" may not be the right one, but some of my thoughts about her should be true.

What should I do? Lin Haitang shook her fingers and frowned, trying to think of a solution. She really didn't know much about the various people in the capital. Not to mention understanding, she didn't even seem to have anyone to ask.

Xi Shuyun. Lin Haitang's eyes lit up, and she immediately had a carriage prepared. She picked out two beautiful pieces of jewelry from the storeroom and set off for Old Master Xi's home.

It wasn’t far, and we arrived at Xi’s house in half an hour.

Lin Haitang was waiting at the door, and soon saw Xi Shuyun jogging towards her.

"Tangtang!" Xi Shuyun was very happy. She lifted her skirt and walked down the stairs quickly. When she came to Lin Haitang, she held her hand.

Lin Haitang also smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and her eyes were not. She said, "I missed you and came to see how you were doing."

"My throat is much better now. I take the medicine you prepared for me every day."

"I can hear it. The voice is much clearer and there is almost no hoarseness."

……

The two of them walked forward, talking and laughing, leaving Yinling's laughter all the way. The maids followed behind them, keeping a distance of two meters.

Xi Shuyun brought Lin Haitang to the pavilion on the lake, accompanied by some servants and maids.

With servants present, it was not very convenient to talk. Lin Haitang gave Xi Shuyun a look, and Xi Shuyun understood instantly and said, "All of you go down."

"Yes." The maids and servants saluted Xi Shuyun and then tiptoed out. If you didn't listen carefully, you couldn't hear their footsteps.

After they retreated, Xi Shuyun said to Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, go watch outside and don't let anyone else get close."

Xiaoyue bowed and said, "Don't worry, miss."

After everyone cleared away, Xi Shuyun said, "Tangtang, now you can speak."

Lin Haitang looked around, waved at Xi Shuyun, leaned forward, and whispered in her ear, "What's the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Xi Shuyun didn't expect Lin Haitang to ask about the Crown Prince. She was a little surprised for a moment, covering her mouth with her hand and whispering, "The Crown Prince is a gentle and generous person, a man of both civil and military talents, and has always had a good reputation. Tangtang, why are you asking this?"

"Does he have any special hobbies? For example, loving other people's wives." Lin Haitang lowered his voice.

Xi Shuyun was even more surprised. She stared at Lin Haitang with wide eyes. Lin Haitang nodded and said, "That's what I meant."

After a moment, Xi Shuyun shook her head and said, "I haven't heard of this. The Crown Prince now has a wife and two concubines. The Crown Princess is his childhood sweetheart, General Zhao's sister Zhao Youyi. They have always had a good relationship. The relationship between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess is a legend in the capital."

Lin Haitang nodded, recalling the prince's expression and actions today in her mind, but no matter how many times she recalled it, she always felt that what she felt at the beginning was not wrong.

Xi Shuyun lowered her voice and asked, "Why are you asking this? Did something happen?"

Lin Haitang shook her head and said, "The prince came to my house today. Maybe I was wrong. I've already given birth to three children, and they're not stunningly beautiful. It shouldn't be that serious."

Is this really a wrong feeling? Lin Haitang frowned and thought.
