The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

It turned out that the study was almost done, and the housekeeper heard Archie talking just as he wanted to come over to report.

The old butler smiled, as if he was afraid that Archie didn't hear it, and said again seriously, "Young Master Archie, of course it is possible. Our prince said that since he is an adopted son, he also belongs to the prince's palace. If you are afraid, you can talk to the old man about it."

Archie couldn't speak what he said and was almost choked up. The old housekeeper smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this. The study has been sorted out. Young master, can you go over and take a look?" ?”

When Zhao Wu heard this, she quickly pushed Archi. Archi reacted immediately and was so excited that he quickly ran into the study.

Looking at the various books on the desk and the bookshelf next to him, little Archie couldn't help but burst out crying. He had never seen so many books belonging to him.

Hearing the sound, Zhao Wu and the old housekeeper outside quickly chased in. Zhao Wu thought Archi had been frightened by something.

I was nervous for a long time, but after asking, I realized that I was moved.

Zhao Wu didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, but she had a deeper impact on Xia Yechen in her heart. She carefully comforted Archie and thanked the old housekeeper.

Originally, Zhao Wu thought that according to etiquette, she should take Archi to go to the prince to express her gratitude.

But then the old housekeeper shook his head and spoke frankly.

"Girl, you don't have to worry about this. Your Majesty said that this is what a foster father should do. If you really make a big fuss about this matter, Your Majesty should punish me for being an old man."

The old housekeeper said so, so naturally Zhao Wu could only accept it.

Returning to his previous thoughts, he bowed to the old butler again to thank him.

After a few days like this, everything in the mansion became much calmer.

At first, Mrs. Zhao Wu was worried that something would happen if Zhou Xiaoyuan took action against Concubine Shu's maids, but later she realized that there was really no need for anything to happen.

There was a dead silence outside the house. It was unknown whether Xia Yechen deliberately concealed it or whether the two master demon masters had stopped.

Zhou Xiaoyuan guessed that the latter was more likely, and she was relieved for a moment, thinking that she would have a few days of peace and quiet, but she didn't expect...

On this day, she had just returned from Zhao Wu's courtyard. Before she got closer, she heard several servants chattering around the corner.

Eavesdropping is not a good thing, and Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't want to do it at first.

But before she could walk out, she heard them mention her name.

How could this be so bad? Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't help but feel a little curious. She stopped there and listened intently to find out what these people could say.

But I don’t want to be stuck in the same old routine, lingering on without a name or status, pretending to be a princess even though I’m not a princess...

They didn't say these words to death, Zhou Xiaoyuan herself heard them to death.

She thought thoughtfully and walked a few steps slowly. Seeing that they hadn't noticed her yet, she simply kicked a stone over.

The heated discussion suddenly stopped, and some of them looked a little dissatisfied when they turned their heads, as if they were complaining about who was disturbing them at this time.

But no matter what their expressions were, after seeing Zhou Xiaoyuan standing there, their expressions all turned into shock and fear.

Talking about the master behind his back

Also got caught.

This is almost unforgivable here. Zhou Xiaoyuan has known about this for a long time, but what she doesn't quite understand is why these people don't know clearly. Do they just think that she really has no backing and let them talk?

How could there be such naive people in the world? Zhou Xiaoyuan was a little unimaginable, but she didn't show it on her face. She only glanced at it lightly.

This glance is not only a deterrent, but also a way to see who is talking.

What made Zhou Xiaoyuan relieved was that among these people, at least there were no people from her yard. She was glad in her heart, thinking that the food she wanted to eat before was luckily not fed to the dog.

While thinking about it, Zhou Xiaoyuan did not give up on intimidating these people. She smiled gently on the surface and said softly:

"I just heard you talking about me? It's really strange."

As soon as these words were said, people knelt down on the ground. Originally, they had some hope, thinking that Zhou Xiaoyuan was just passing by and didn't hear much, but they didn't expect that Zhou Xiaoyuan would point it out so straightforwardly.

If you don't kneel down consciously in this situation, wouldn't you be sending your life to the executioner?

The group of servants were trembling. At this time, they could not see the elegant demeanor at all. Zhou Xiaoyuan laughed again and said softly: "What are you afraid of? Weren't you very happy just now? If you are so scared now, people who don't know would think that Why am I acting like a princess again..."

"Really, I still like your unruly look just now."

Zhou Xiaoyuan made a little joke, but it was a pity that no one here understood her joke. They only vaguely felt that although the person in front of them was smiling, he didn't seem to be in that mood.

it is good.

Thinking about this and thinking about what they just said, it would be difficult for them not to be afraid.

Zhou Xiaoyuan naturally knew it. Seeing that her deterrence was in place, she said lightly: "It's amazing to say, maybe you don't know, but I was also picked up by your prince himself."

"Perhaps you also know that I have already entered the palace. Your Majesty, the prince, mother-in-law and concubine have all met me. From this point of view, they have met my parents-in-law. Nini is also so old, so she can't be counted as one. No name and no status, right? What do you think?"

After saying this, no one dared to respond. In fact, it was not that these servants didn't know, it was just that the news in the mansion was blocked, which made them mistakenly have other ideas about Zhou Xiaoyuan.

This is very normal, and Zhou Xiaoyuan herself thinks it is normal. She knew from the beginning that her identity could not convince the public.

But so what?

She smiled slightly and pointed out Rourou: "I hope everyone can understand that even though I am unknown and have no status, I am still an honored guest invited by your prince. I cannot allow you to talk about me as an honored guest."

"Just like me, my mind is very fragile. If I am saddened by your words, then I will really leave."

"It sounds quite happy to you, right? But you don't think about it. If I leave, won't the prince become suspicious? Even if I don't tell, can the things in the house be hidden from the prince?"

Until she said this, Zhou Xiaoyuan had a smile on her face and looked harmless.

But the next moment, she changed the topic and suddenly became much more serious.

"——But if this matter is discovered, if the prince knows that I did it because of your comments,

Those who left, tell me. In the end, is it you or me who is the only one who gets what you want? "
