The weak prince's queen
Chapter 40 Rewarding Servants
"Someone, come outside and see what's going on. Why is it so noisy?" Xiao Yichen heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from outside the study. He frowned slightly and shouted impatiently.
After a while, a servant came running in with a report: "Your Highness, it's the princess and her companions who have returned with several carts of gifts. The leader is even shouting, 'Master Lin loves the princess and is adding more dowry.'"
"Oh...what tricks is she playing?" Xiao Yichen frowned in confusion, then ordered, "Go call Mo Feng."
Soon, Mo Feng came to the study and said excitedly: "Your Highness, I was just about to report to you! The princess is so smart. At first we all thought she would be bullied, but we didn't expect this to be the result in the end..." Then, Mo Feng told Xiao Yichen in detail what had happened, including how they witnessed Mr. Lin's love and care for Lin Zhixia, and how they received generous gifts.
After listening to Mo Feng's story, Xiao Yichen was silent for a moment and then said, "It seems that the rumors that Miss Lin is not favored are true, but we can't completely rule out that this is a show she and Master Lin deliberately put on for us to see."
"No way, I don't think they are acting." Mo Feng said with some confusion.
"No matter what, we can't take it lightly. You continue to keep an eye on them and report to me immediately if there is any abnormality." Xiao Yichen warned seriously.
"Mammy, since these gifts are my dowry, they belong to me. Can I arrange them however I want?" Chu Xiyue looked at the cartloads of gifts, her eyes gleaming with excitement. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a sweet smile, and she asked softly.
"You can say that, Princess." Aunt Liu replied with a smile, her eyes full of kindness.
"Haha... then I know." Chu Xiyue laughed happily, her laughter as clear and sweet as a silver bell. She reached out and gently hugged Aunt Liu to express her joy.
"Princess, please pay attention to your manners." Although Aunt Liu said this, her heart was filled with joy and relief.
"Dong'er, tell them to move all the dowries to my room, and everyone in the mansion will receive a reward today." Chu Xiyue turned around and loudly instructed Dong'er, the maid beside her.
"Thank you, Princess..." When the servants heard that there was a reward, their faces were filled with joy. They knelt down and kowtowed, expressing their gratitude in unison.
At this moment, Xiao Yichen happened to pass by and saw this scene. He stopped and looked at Chu Xiyue quietly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He said to Mo Feng beside him: "See, this Miss Lin is not simple, she is very deceptive."
After hearing this, Mo Feng nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with the prince's opinion. However, he felt a certain curiosity and anticipation towards the new princess. After all, it was rare to find a woman who could be so generous in rewarding her servants and win the favor of everyone.
"Dong'er, we're rich." Chu Xiyue looked at the pile of gifts in front of her, her eyes shining, and she was so excited that she almost jumped up.
"Yes, Princess, I have never seen so much wealth in my life!" Dong'er looked at these treasures with surprise, her heart full of joy.
"Look at this emerald green agate, and so many gold hairpins and jewelry, and so many antiques, calligraphy and paintings. I will be rich when I take them back, and I won't be able to spend them all in several lifetimes. Haha..." Chu Xiyue couldn't help laughing as she spoke.
"Miss has never had such jewelry..." Dong'er murmured to herself, with a trace of longing and sadness in her eyes.
Chu Xiyue heard Dong'er's words and knew she must be thinking of Lin Ruoxue. She gently walked over to Dong'er, hugged her, and gently comforted her, "Don't be sad, Dong'er. I will leave half of the treasure here to your young lady. When she returns, she will take you to live a happy and carefree life for the rest of your life."
"Thank you, Princess." Dong'er was grateful, tears welling up in her eyes.
"But now, our top priority is to gain freedom." Chu Xiyue said with a firm look.
"Then what should we do?" Dong'er wiped her tears and asked seriously.
"I think there's someone we might be able to win over." Chu Xiyue said with a determined look in her eyes, perhaps she had a plan.
