The two men's faces were somewhat stiff.

Indeed, it's the first time in all these years that Shen Ningzhu has been allowed into this private residence. Even if she doesn't become the principal wife or concubine in the future, she will always have the opportunity to become a maid or servant.

No matter how bad things get, she's still half a master. A few words from her husband can be enough to make things difficult for these servants.

The two looked at each other, feeling as if they were being roasted over a fire. Seeing that the time was right, Shen Ningzhu offered them a way out.

"I know that you two nannies respect His Highness the Crown Prince, but I also sincerely admire him."

"You two may not know this, but His Highness took the initiative to bring me to his residence. Although I displeased His Highness and was punished by him along the way, the fact that he did not execute me or kick me out proves that he is not entirely without feelings for me."

"Perhaps one day we will live under the same roof. Ningzhu is dull-witted and will probably have to rely on the two of you for guidance in the future."

His words were well-reasoned, apt, and eloquent.

Granny Wang and the others were veterans who had served in the Crown Prince's residence. They were all shrewd and perceptive people. After Shen Ningzhu's explanation, they immediately understood the implications.

Even if he disliked Shen Ningzhu, he couldn't continue to make things difficult for her, so he had no choice but to back down.

"Since you're so sensible, this old servant won't say anything more. I came here today to tell you to work hard, or you'll be in for a world of trouble when His Highness blames you."

Granny Wang said in a bossy tone.

However, this explanation sounds far-fetched and lacks conviction.

Shen Ningzhu's eyes darted around, and she launched into another string of witty remarks, making the two men unconsciously smile. Before leaving, she even offered to bring Shen Ningzhu some clean clothes and daily necessities before they left together.

After closing the door, Shen Ningzhu stood behind it, her crimson lips curving upwards and her eyebrows slightly raised.

Great, you've successfully tricked two more people away.

As expected, her best friend Liu Zhiyi is truly amazing. This kind of smooth-talking, manipulative "green tea" tactic was taught to her by her best friend herself. In her words, men and women alike, everyone likes a seemingly innocent but actually manipulative woman.

Since that's the case, why not use the tactics of a cunning, manipulative woman to make her happily pay for your goals? Shen Ningzhu just smiled when she heard this and didn't take it seriously, so she never had the chance to use it and naturally didn't know its effect.

Unexpectedly, this time-traveling experience turned out to be a lifesaver. It seems that learning more things is never a bad thing.

On the spacious and luxurious carriage

Jiang Xuan Yan sat upright, his posture tall and slender, graceful as a startled swan and a swimming dragon, lazily dozing off to rest.

The guard opposite him was kneeling on one knee at his feet, reporting on Shen Ningzhu's movements.

When he heard her say she "truly admires His Highness the Crown Prince," a cool smile curled at the corners of his lips. He knew this woman wouldn't give up easily; sure enough, she'd revealed her true colors so quickly.

In that case, he overestimated her.

I thought she had suddenly become more shrewd and cunning, but I never expected that after all these tricks, she would still be as unrefined as ever.

Fine, considering how devoted she is, allowing her to enter the Crown Prince's residence and providing her with a courtyard to live out her life is not a big deal.

As the crown prince of a nation, he can certainly afford to feed his family. However, she still needs to work on her temperament.

That face was already extremely eye-catching. If she continued to be so restless and single-minded in vying for the emperor's favor, how could the crown princess tolerate her when she entered the palace?
