Although Shen Yi had blackmailed him heavily, Shen Yi was a real talent and Yun Chenyu was a man who valued talent. It was true that he wanted to teach Shen Yi a lesson then, and it was also true that he wanted to make him his military doctor now.

Lin Wanrou saw the regret in Yun Chenyu's heart and said, "When Senior Brother left that day, we made a three-year agreement. He will be back in three years, and then cousin will be able to see him."

"So, you have a very good relationship with your senior brother?" Yun Chenyu stared at Lin Wanrou with eyes as sharp as an eagle.

"My senior brother has always treated me like his own sister since I was little, and he's been incredibly caring. Even after he went off to study medicine, he still came back to visit me regularly." Lin Wanrou bowed her head, a look of remorse on her face. "That day, my senior brother came to say goodbye to me. Seeing me confined here, he heartbrokenly offered to take me away. However, I explained to him that I was living well in the palace, and that my cousin the prince had always been very caring towards me. This confinement was simply because I had nearly made a serious mistake by employing the wrong people, so I volunteered to stay confined for a month as self-punishment. Only then did he feel at ease to leave me alone."

After Lin Wanrou finished speaking, she carefully raised her head and secretly glanced at Yun Chenyu's expression.

Yun Chenyu nodded, but he became more curious about this mysterious Shen Yi.

After a moment, he waved to the guard beside him and said, "Go and get the butler."

When the butler arrived, he coldly ordered, "Pass on this order! From now on, the princess's housekeeper authority is withdrawn, and Cousin Wanrou's house arrest order is lifted. From now on, all matters in the palace's backyard will be managed by Cousin Wanrou."

"Yes, Your Highness." The butler replied respectfully.

"Thank you, cousin~" Lin Wanrou was delighted and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Shen Li, Shen Li, this is all your own fault! Who told you to save the prince but not dare to admit it? Now I have no choice but to enjoy this honor for you!

In Danxue Pavilion, Shen Li sat on the armchair, holding a stack of silver bills in his hand, counting them happily.

At this time, Qingluan ran in panting.

"Master, something bad has happened!"

Shen Li raised her head unhappily and looked at Qing Luan: "Why are you so panicked?"

Qingluan stopped, bent down, and gasped for breath. She said anxiously, "I don't know what means that cousin used to allow the prince to take away your stewardship. Now, the cousin is in power again. Last time she poisoned us, you discovered her. I'm afraid she will come up with other conspiracies and tricks to deal with us in the future. What should the master do..."

When Shen Li heard this, she was shocked. She put down the banknotes in her hand, stood up and cursed: "This stinky pig's hoof is really not a human! I saved your life in vain!"

Qingluan was stunned for a moment: "Master, what did you just say? What big pig's hoof?"

Just as she finished speaking, she reacted: "Are you saying that the prince is a big pig's hoof?"

Qingluan couldn't help but burst into laughter again, holding her stomach and bending over with laughter.

Big pig's hoof... She had never heard any woman call her husband a big pig's hoof.

Qingluan felt that her eyes had been broadened again. She had never expected that a pig's hoof could be used to insult people.

However, the master scolded the prince well.

It was the prince's fault in the first place! Who in this palace didn't know that the master was the legitimate princess? The prince actually gave the power of the household to a cousin and allowed her to bully the master!

Now, the prince is actually going to take back the master's power over the family because of that woman's instigation!

This prince is really too much! He is simply blind!

Shen Li patted Qingluan's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, little girl. As long as Lin Wanrou dares to bully us, I will never let her go! But..." Then Shen Li changed the subject and sat down, tapping the table lightly with his index finger, lost in thought.

Qingluan pursed her lips and said with a firm look in her eyes: "Master, although Qingluan is of low status, I will definitely work harder in the future to help you regain the power of the family!"

Shen Li shook his head and replied with disdain: "Management? I don't care! My relationship with that big pig's hoof is just a temporary one. Sooner or later, I will leave this damn place."

"Ah? Master, aren't you angry because the prince took away your power to be the head of the family?" Qingluan asked doubtfully.

Shen Li smiled and explained, "The power of the household isn't the most important thing to me. What I care more about is whether I can enter the palace smoothly. If Lin Wanrou gains power, it might hinder my plans and affect the progress of my request for a divorce from the emperor."

"Master, please have some tea to refresh yourself. We will think about a plan carefully." Qingluan picked up the teapot on the table and prepared to pour tea.

"Huh? There's no water." Qingluan shook the teapot in confusion, then opened the lid and took a look. Sure enough, there was not a drop of water.

She shook her head helplessly and put the teapot aside.

"Master, please wait a moment. I will go to the tea room and get you a pot of freshly brewed West Lake Longjing tea."

"Okay, let's go."

Shen Li nodded in agreement.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and gently rubbed his temples, seeming a little tired.

Qingluan walked into the tea room, opened the lid of the pot, and the fragrance of Biluochun tea hit her face.

She frowned, wondering: I had clearly told Bixia that the master liked to drink West Lake Longjing tea, so it must be prepared at all times and the supply must not be interrupted.

But now, it has become Biluochun.

Qingluan stared at Bixia with wide eyes and asked sternly, "Bixia, didn't I tell you to always have West Lake Longjing tea ready? Why did you ignore my words? The princess is still waiting to drink it!"

Bixia lowered her head, hesitating and avoiding Qingluan's gaze. She said in a low voice, "This..."

"What's wrong? I'm asking you a question. Why are you hemming and hawing? What happened? Tell me now!"

Qingluan's expression became even uglier.

"Sister Qingluan, I really have it prepared all along, but Hongyu just poured it out.

I told her that this was cooked for the princess, but she not only refused to listen, but also scolded me, saying that the cousin would be the head of the palace in the future, and that the cousin didn't like drinking West Lake Longjing, so she asked me to cook Biluochun..." Bixia lowered her head and explained carefully.

Then, Bixia said aggrievedly, "Hongyu is really too arrogant and domineering."

"With a master like that, how can she be a good person? This is what they call a crooked top beam and crooked bottom beams." Qingluan said angrily: "Since she poured out the tea, why don't you boil another pot?"

"It's not that I don't want to make it, it's that she took away all the West Lake Longjing tea leaves and told us not to have West Lake Longjing tea in the tea room anymore."

"That's too much! I'll get a new pack from the warehouse right away!"

After Qingluan finished speaking, she walked towards the palace storehouse.
