C180 Chapter 180

Under Duan Shuang's flowery words, Yang Lanqing agreed.

"Don't worry. Before I give you another title, I won't ruin your innocence!" Duan Shuang solemnly promised.

Duan Shuang's words made Yang Lanqing even more convinced. Duan Shuang really wanted to make her the princess.

After settling Yang Lanqing down, Duan Shuang immediately called Anzhao over.

"Your Highness, what orders do you have?"

"Arrange for Sima Ling to secretly plant a girl in Yang Lanqing's courtyard."

"Yes."

Yang Lanqing was led by a servant to a quiet courtyard in the depths of the mansion.

"Are you mistaken?" As soon as Yang Lanqing entered the courtyard, her eyes were filled with disgust. Such a remote and poorly decorated place, how could it be a place that the Royal Highness prepared for her?

"Miss Yang, there is no mistake. The Royal Highness asked the Royal Highness to stay here." After the mother who led the way brought the person over, she left.

After a while, a girl came in front of Yang Lanqing.

"Greetings Miss Yang. This servant is called Mu and is here to serve the young miss." Mu respectfully knelt in front of Yang Lanqing.

"Get up."

"Why is this courtyard so remote?" Yang Lanqing first asked this question.

"This servant also do not know. This servant also came to the Imperial Residence not long ago."

"You are the new lass?" Yang Lanqing was dissatisfied.

"Yes!" Mu immediately lowered her head, afraid of angering this Mistress.

Yang Lanqing was indeed angry in her heart that she did not seem to be valued in the Imperial Residence. Not only was the courtyard so remote, there was actually only one maidservant serving. Furthermore, it was a new lass who had entered the Imperial Residence not long ago.

Looking at this trembling lass in front of her, Yang Lanqing finally realized that her attitude was too fierce. Since she had just arrived at the Imperial Residence, naturally she should bribe the hearts of the people first. If she had not become the true mistress of this place, she would have a harsh reputation first. That would not be worth it.

"You don't have to be nervous. I didn't say anything about you." Yang Lanqing immediately smiled cheerfully.

After that, Yang Lanqing gave a treasure to Mu.

"Alright, don't stand here anymore. Clean up this place properly."

When Mu got the silver, the new Mistress looked so kind again. She immediately became happy and happily went to work.

Yang Lanqing looked at Mu with disdain, A servant is a servant. Give some silver and you will be bribed.

"How is it? Are you used to it here?" Duan Shuang came over in a short while. As soon as he entered the room, he started to show concern.

"Greetings, Your Royal Highness." Yang Lanqing bowed her body and turned to the side. She said to Mu who was busy, "You can go down first."

"Your Highness, I am quite good." Yang Lanqing smiled slightly and then her face deliberately revealed a lonely expression.

Duan Shuang pretended not to notice the obvious hint on her face. He nodded and said, "As long as you are used to living!"

Yang Lanqing was vexed in her heart. Could it be that the Royal Highness realized her expression? Forget it, it was better to say it clearly!

"Royal Highness, although this place is good, it is really too quiet here. And there is only Mu beside Lanqing who can speak." Yang Lanqing raised her eyebrows. It was so obvious that she should know, right?

" Didn't this king say that the other servants of the Imperial Residence would disturb you? Although this place is a bit secluded, it can allow you to properly nurture your character. It seems to be troubled by the rumors outside. Letting Mu serve you was also because she was a newcomer to the Imperial Residence. It is not to the extent of making you feel wronged. If you really like liveliness, you can come out and take a look. "

After Yang Lanqing heard this, she could only smile awkwardly.

"Alright, after seeing that you are well, I am relieved. You are also tired today. Rest early!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

After Duan Shuang left, Yang Lanqing looked at the empty courtyard and sighed.

"Miss, why are you so unhappy?" Mu came up to comfort, "Before this servant came, I heard from the other people in the residence that Miss was the first person to live in the Imperial Residence. Previously, the Royal Highness doted on Princess Renxi and did not have the honor of Miss. It looks like Miss will definitely become the Princess very soon!"

Hearing Mu's words, Yang Lanqing felt a lot more relieved.

To be able to enter the prince's backyard, I have already won the first step. The current residence is only temporary. If you are close to the water, you will get the moon first. Today, I have to get close to the prince every day. The most important thing is to firmly grasp the prince's heart.

After thinking about it this time, Yang Lanqing felt that everything had become clear.

Today's auction house.

"Lord An, why did you come personally?" The manager of the auction house came out to welcome him.

"Today, other than the people from the Ministry of Revenue, have any other people come here to investigate?" Anzhao asked after confirming that it was safe at this moment.

"Yes!" The manager nodded. "Sima Ling also secretly sent people to investigate."

"You didn't give yourself away, did you?"

"Don't worry, my lord. I have always been careful. Even if they turned the pawnshop upside down, they would never find out anything about the prince."

Anzhao nodded.

"You have a good reputation for this matter. A Luminous Pearl worth no more than a thousand taels of silver was actually sold by you for ten thousand taels of silver! I will definitely make a contribution for you in front of the prince!"

"Then I would like to thank His Excellency An for saying so many beautiful words for me. This is not a difficult matter. You just need to secretly bribe a good person and raise the price."

"You have to take good care of those people. Don't let them leak even the slightest bit of information!"

"Of course I know this. Sir An, please be at ease."

Anzhao nodded and disappeared into the moonlight when no one was paying attention.

The next day.

"Who are you? How can you barge into the imperial residence's restricted area!"

"My daughter is in the Imperial Residence. Go and report to her. You will naturally know!" The guard guarding the door looked at each other in dismay. He did not know what to do.

Coincidentally, Butler Duan was passing by at this moment. The guard at the door hurried to hold the butler.

"Butler Duan, you came at the right time. This old lady insisted that her woman was in the Imperial Residence and wanted to go in, this..."

Butler Duan looked at the old woman at the door, nodded, and walked out.

"May I ask if you are Mrs. Yang?" Butler Duan was still somewhat respectful.

"Yes! That's right!" Yang's mother hurriedly nodded her head. " These two people refused to let me in. But my daughter did not come home all night. How can I be at ease?" Yang's mother spoke very loudly and wished that everyone outside could hear her.

Butler Duan frowned, "Madam Yang, please come in. I'll take you to see Miss Yang."

Yang's mother raised her head proudly and looked at the two people who blocked her earlier with provocation. However, Yang's mother did not notice that Butler Duan never blamed the guards at the door.
