The Pretty Wife of General Jinxiu Huanian

Chapter 113 The Marquis' Mansion is Stable

That morning, the sun shone brightly through the lush osmanthus tree in the courtyard of the marquis's mansion, and spots of light fell on the ground.

Yunxi was wearing a light blue dress, the hem of which swayed slightly with her light steps.

She has a fair face, bright eyes, and a faint smile on her lips, like a fresh little flower.

"Madam, breakfast is ready." The maid Xiao Cui lowered her head, folded her hands in front of her, and said respectfully.

Yunxi nodded slightly and walked towards the dining room. When she entered the dining room, she saw the prince sitting steadily at the table, looking relaxed.

"Your Highness, you seem to be in a good mood today." Yunxi's smile deepened, and her voice was clear and pleasant.

The prince stopped picking up the food he was picking up, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and laughed heartily: "The Marquis's Mansion is now stable, so I am naturally in a good mood."

After dinner, Yunxi and the prince strolled side by side through the palace. As they passed the garden, they saw several servants bent over, busy pruning flowers.

One of the servants moved a little clumsily and almost broke a young branch.

Yunxi hurriedly said, "Slow down, don't panic."

The prince also frowned: "Work carefully!"

The servants nodded quickly and became more careful in their movements.

At this time, the housekeeper Li Fu hurried over, stood aside, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Be careful, don't hurt these flowers."

"Be careful, don't hurt these flowers." Butler Li Fu reminded from the side.

Yunxi walked forward and looked at the blooming flowers. "These flowers are so beautiful."

She reached out and gently stroked the petals, her eyes full of love.

The prince came over with a smile, his eyes also falling on the flowers, "As long as my lady likes it, it's good.

As long as my lady likes it, I will provide all these flowers in the yard for her to enjoy every day."

As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows with a smug look on his face.

As he was speaking, the doorman of the Marquisate came running in, breathless. When he arrived, he bent over and said with a gasp, "Your Highness, Madam, Master Zhang from the Ministry of Personnel is here to visit."

The prince and Yunxi exchanged a glance, and the prince waved his hand, "Please come in."

Not long after, Lord Zhang was ushered in. He was dressed in his official uniform, walking in a square gait, with a smile on his face that almost squeezed his eyes out. "Your Majesty, Madam, how are you?"

The prince bowed and said, "Master Zhang, what brings you here today?"

Master Zhang smiled, his eyes rolling around, "I heard that the Marquis' Mansion is stable these days, so I came to congratulate you."

As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and bowed.

Everyone sat down in the hall, and the maids served tea and snacks swiftly.

Master Zhang picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, smacked his lips, and said, "Now that the new dynasty has just been established, the situation is gradually stabilizing. Your Majesty has made an indelible contribution."

The prince waved his hand and said, "I am just trying to do my best for the court."

Master Zhang rolled his eyes, leaned forward, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, you must be more careful in the current situation. The things above are very complicated."

The prince frowned slightly, "I will be careful."

Master Zhang continued, "Your Highness, I heard that the Emperor has new plans for that piece of land in the south."

The prince's expression was startled. "Oh? Is this true?"

Master Zhang chuckled, "It's almost certain. Your Highness, you should have a rough idea in mind."

Lord Zhang chatted with the prince about some court affairs before he stood up and said goodbye.

The prince and Yunxi sent him to the door. Lord Zhang got on the carriage and did not forget to turn around and bow to say goodbye.

After seeing off Master Zhang, Yunxi said to the prince, "There have been quite a few people visiting the mansion these days."

The prince frowned, "I'm afraid some people have other intentions."

In the afternoon, Yunxi was taking a nap in her room when suddenly a loud noise was heard outside.

She stood up and walked out of the room, only to see two maids arguing.

"Why did you break the vase?" A maid opened her eyes wide and pointed at another maid.

"I didn't mean to do that. You bumped into me." Another maid stomped her feet anxiously, her eyes red, and said aggrievedly.

Yunxi quickly stepped forward upon hearing the noise, frowning slightly, "Stop arguing, what's going on?"

When the two maids saw Yunxi coming, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted, their heads almost bowing to the ground.

The maid who spoke first hurriedly said, "Madam, I was holding the vase and was about to wipe it when she suddenly rushed over and bumped into me, and the vase fell to the ground and broke."

Another maid quickly protested: "Madam, it's not like that. I was in a hurry to deliver something to the young lady and bumped into her without paying attention."

Yunxi looked at the two of them, sighed softly, and said, "It's just a vase. Just be more careful next time."

After finishing the matter, Yunxi turned and walked towards the kitchen. The kitchen was steaming hot and filled with fragrance.

Yunxi walked into the kitchen and looked around. "We need to add more salt to this dish. The prince likes it with a stronger flavor."

The cook wiped her sweat and nodded repeatedly, "Don't worry, Madam. I'll remember this."

As evening approached, the lights in the mansion began to light up. Yunxi and the prince had dinner and sat in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air.

Yunxi gently fanned herself, "The peace and stability of this mansion is hard-earned, and we must cherish it."

The prince held Yunxi's hand, his eyes gentle, "With Madam here, the Marquis's Mansion will always be safe and sound."

As the night deepened, the Marquis' Mansion passed another day in peace.

The next day, Yunxi was chatting with several concubines in the hall. Yunxi sat at the head of the table, wearing a light blue dress and a simple jade hairpin in her hair.

Several concubines sat around her, chatting casually.

"The Marquis' Mansion is now stable, and we can live a comfortable life."

An aunt in a pink dress said with a flattering smile on her face.

As he was speaking, the sound of horse hooves could be heard outside. "Go and see what's going on."

Yunxi put down the teacup in her hand and said.

After a while, the servant came to report, "Madam, it's the prince's good friend General Lin who has arrived."

General Lin was tall, still wearing his armor. He strode into the hall and said in a loud voice, "Your Highness, Madam Yunxi."

The prince stood up to greet him, and patted General Lin on the shoulder with a smile, "General Lin, how come you have time to come today?"

General Lin laughed heartily and said, "I heard that the Marquis' Mansion is safe and sound, so I came here to join in the fun."

Yunxi hurriedly asked the maid to serve tea and said, "It is a great honor for the Marquis's residence that General Lin has come."

General Lin laughed, "You're too polite, Madam."

Everyone exchanged greetings again, and the hall was filled with laughter.

In this way, the Marquis' Mansion remained stable amidst a mixture of tranquility and bustle.
