Zhao Heng fainted from fear.

So, why was he pretending to be aloof? Wasn’t he a coward to the core?

Yu Wan held Yan Jiuchao’s arm and said in a good mood, “Hubby! Back to the manor!”

When she returned to the Young Master Manor, Yu Wan realized that there were many gifts in the courtyard. Yu Wan shuttled through a pile of boxes and asked Tao’er and Li’er, who were tidying the boxes, in confusion, “Did someone send these over, or is our manor planning to give them away?

Li’er replied, “Young Madam, someone else sent it over. We’re sorting out the list.’

Yu Wan exclaimed, “So much.”

They couldn’t even fit in the courtyard!

“Yes, this is from the Minister of Works. This is Assistant Minister Li of the

Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. This is Grand Tutor Wang. And this is the Grand Tutor…” Li’er explained the things in the courtyard to Yu Wan as if she was familiar with them. “There are also many in the gatehouse that I haven’t brought over.”

Yu Wan took a weak breath. “Are these congratulatory gifts to celebrate Yan

Jiuchao’s appointment as Regent?”

Li’er thought for a while and shook her head. “I think they said… that these were return gifts.”

Yu Wan was stunned again. “Return gifts? Did we give them a gift?”

Looking at the list of returns, it seemed like the entire court was returning the favor!

“Yes,” Shadow Six said without changing his expression. “Young Master gave them on the first day he was conferred the title.”

With two red eggs!

At this moment, the ministers were still vomiting blood in the manor. What was more shameful than to gain something without risking anything of one’s own? It was a certain lunatic who used red eggs to get their astronomical return gift in return!

Those damn red eggs!!!

When Yu Wan heard that Yan Jiuchao had given gifts to the ministers, she did not ask for the details. Everyone’s return gift was quite heavy, so she thought that the gift Yan Jiuchao had given was not light either.

Yu Wan said in relief, “You’re sensible. You even know how to give gifts to get closer to the ministers.”

Shadow Six pinched his money bag and remembered Shadow Thirteen’s teachings. If he told the truth, his monthly salary would be deducted! But… but he couldn’t help but mutter softly, “It’s not expensive. There are just two…” Yu Wan looked at him curiously.

Shadow Six finally decided to endure the humiliation for the sake of the pouch. “Compared to the return gifts from the ministers, the gift from Young Master is really nothing.”

The two red eggs were better left unsaid…

Yu Wan said thoughtfully, “It’s not strange when I think about it. After all, your Young Master is overseeing the country. The ministers have to please him, so they naturally picked up valuable gifts.”

Are you sure they want to curry favor and were not forced to do it?

Shadow Six could not say this. Pride was important, but monthly salary was even more important!

The gifts given bv the ministers were too exDensive. and Yu Wan felt guiltv accepting them. However, the ministers would definitely not accept them if she returned a little. If the ministers knew Yu Wan’s thoughts, they would definitely roar collectively, Yes! Yes! We’ll accept it! Please be kind and return

“Ping’er,” Yu Wan called.

“Young Madam.” Ping’er carried the pickle jar down from the carriage. When she heard Yu Wan call her, she walked over with the pickle jar. “What’s wrong?”

Yu Wan said, “Come with me to the small kitchen. I’ll personally make some snacks for them.”

That afternoon, the civil and military officials collectively received the snacks from the Regent Consort—the yam green bean cake. When the servants of the Young Master Manor sent the snacks to their manor, they specially instructed,

“Our Princess Consort personally made them.”

In other words, you can’t waste it. Otherwise, you know the consequences.

The snacks looked good and smelled quite sweet. Although they could not compare to the return gift they gave, they were still personally made by the Regent Consort. Just this thought alone was worth a thousand gold, okay?

The ministers all felt that the Princess Consort was much more reliable than Yan Jiuchao. Although they were in different mansions, the ministers treated the snacks the same. The ministers piously picked up the snacks and tasted

them—

Oh my god!

What did we do wrong? Princess Consort, why are you punishing us like this? Was it because we didn’t give enough gifts?! !

At night, the Young Master Manor received another wave of generous returns from the ministers.

Yu Wan: “…Eh?”

Yan Jiuchao will officially have a morning court assembly tomorrow. Yu Wan sent the three little black eggs to Prince Yan’s courtyard. Prince Yan quite liked Little Bruiser and asked him to stay.

There were no noisy children in the courtyard. Yu Wan asked Yan Jiuchao to quickly rest. After tidying up the list of gifts for the ministers, she turned off the lights and fell asleep.

Before she fell asleep, she sighed. In the past, she had misunderstood the officials of the Great Zhou. Actually, everyone was quite easy to get along with. They liked Yan Jiuchao and liked her even more! After she gave birth, she had to think of ways to thank them. For example, she had to make her best snacks for them.

The ministers who were sleeping felt a chill run down their backs. They did not know what was going on.

Prince Jing Manor, no, it should be called the Crown Prince Manor now.

The plaque had been changed this morning. It should have been written by the Emperor, but didn’t the Emperor have a stroke? It was inconvenient for his hands and feet, so he changed it to the old minister of the Hanlin Academy who wrote the words and handed them to the craftsmen to make the plaque.

It was beautiful, but it lacked the aura of a true dragon.

Han Jingshu had also received the imperial edict and the crown prince consort’s court uniform and golden seal. Recently, the Empress had been busy taking care of the Emperor and could not care about them. However, she also understood that when the Empress have the time, she would definitely invite them, these court ladies, into the palace.

Although Han Jingshu called the Empress as Mother, the Empress was not Yan

Huaijing’s biological mother. Worthy Consort Xu was. The Empress and Worthy Consort Xu were like fire and water, so she could not get too close to the Empress.

At this moment, she was a little envious of Yu Wan.

It didn’t seem to matter who Yu Wan got close to. Even if she interacted with Worthy Consort Xu, it wouldn’t arouse anyone’s fear and guesses

“Crown Princess Consort, what are you thinking about?” Lu’er asked softly.

“Nothing.” Han Jingshu shook her head.

“Are you worried about His Highness?” Lu’er asked.

“Huh?” Han Jingshu was stunned.

Lu’er said, “Although His Majesty conferred His Highness as the Crown Prince, he snatched his authority to supervise the country and appointed Prince Yan’s son as the Regent above him. I think His Majesty has gone overboard.”

Han Jingshu did not reprimand her for criticizing His Majesty behind his back. She was the one who had brought her from the manor. She only dared to say such heartfelt words to her because of her loyalty.

Han Jingshu shook her head. “His Majesty is right. Prince Yan indeed has the talent to govern the country. His Majesty’s health hasn’t recovered for a long time, and the hearts of the people are unstable. Heroes are entrenched. At this time, we really need someone like Prince Yan to stabilize the overall situation.” “Then why didn’t he just confer the title to Prince Yan?” Lu’er was puzzled.

Han Jingshu smiled faintly and said, “After Prince Yan returned to the Capital, he didn’t enter the palace to visit His Majesty. Do you think Prince Yan will be willing to accept His Majesty’s conferment?”

Han Jingshu had also heard a little about the secrets of Prince Yan and His Majesty, but she had never been sure. However, the rumors became more true in her heart after Prince Yan returned to the Capital.

His Majesty owed Prince Yan, so he had always tolerated Prince Yan Manor. This could explain why Yan Jiuchao was so favored.

Han Jingshu did not think that His Majesty wanted to completely entrust the empire to Prince Yan’s bloodline though. Since His Majesty was willing to confer the title of Crown Prince, it meant that His Majesty was still willing to let his children inherit the empire.

However, there were too many dangers hidden in the seemingly peaceful situation. Yan Huaijing could not deal with them. He had to rely on Prince Yan to overcome all obstacles before Yan Huaijing could fight for a true peaceful era.

Han Jingshu sighed. “I understand His Majesty’s painstaking efforts. I hope the Crown Prince can understand too.” Lu’er stop talking.

“What’s wrong?” Han Jingshu asked.

“I think that ever since that woman returned to the Capital, the Crown Prince has become… unlike him,” Lu’er complained softly.

As Han Jingshu’s trusted maidservant, how could Lu’er not know about Yan Huaijing’s affair? On one hand, he was married to her young miss, and on the other hand, he had provoked Yan Jiuchao’s wife. How could that woman compare to her young miss?

Although she had a good background now, she had grown up in the countryside after all. She was definitely not as outstanding as her young miss!

Han Jingshu did not have any ill intentions towards Yu Wan. It was true that she would be jealous of Yu Wan. However, she knew very well that that was her own problem and had nothing to do with Yu Wan. From the beginning to the end, Yu Wan had never provoked Yan Huaijing, nor had she thought of destroying their husband-and-wife relationship. Yu Wan had even sincerely reminded her of Yan Huaijing’s character.

Everything was her own choice. Of course, she did not regret it. She loved this man, so even if she was a moth to a flame, she would fall into it without hesitation.

“Where’s the Crown Prince?” Han Jingshu didn’t want to continue this topic. Lu’er said, “I think he’s in his own courtyard.”

In the end, she muttered, “Usually, he would come to your room to rest for three to five days. This time… it’s been more than ten days!”

“Has the soup I instructed the kitchen to make stewed?” Han Jingshu asked.

“It’s stewed,” Lu’er said. “I’ll go get it!”

Lu’er brought over the ginseng chicken SOLID. Han Tingshu stood un to deliver it

to Yan Huaijing. Lu’er said, “It’s not convenient for you. I’ll deliver it.”

Han Jingshu touched her still flat stomach, lowered her eyes, and said softly,

“No, I’ll send it to him personally..”
