As for the palace.

Because there was not enough time to build it, Emperor Zhaoyuan picked out a house that was relatively attractive from the courtyards that were reclaimed and gave it to him. This courtyard is now the Prince of Yan's Mansion.

In fact, this Prince Yan's Mansion is quite old.

It was taken back by Emperor Zhaoyuan from the aunt of the previous emperor, who was also Emperor Zhaoyuan's great-aunt, Princess Zhaoyang.

Emperor Zhao Yuan knew that the house was a bit old and not very nice looking.

Therefore, when he recalled He Qingchen, he opened his own private treasury and personally asked people to renovate the entire palace. By the time He Qingchen moved in, the palace had been completely renewed and showed new vitality everywhere.

Emperor Zhao Yuan was even considerate enough to consider that He Qingchen might need to practice martial arts.

He hurriedly ordered people to cut down all the original bamboo forest in the palace and converted it into a huge martial arts training ground. This was also the place that He Qingchen was most satisfied with after moving into the palace.

As for the main courtyard, it is simple, even shabby.

The whole yard was empty, but there were a few trees planted near the wall. There was also a small pavilion under one side of the wall. Under the pavilion was a small pond with some koi carps.

There is nothing else.

There are no exotic flowers or plants, no luxurious ornaments, and no valuable things at all.

Even the few trees are wilted now.

There was not a single bit of the vitality that spring should have, but the leaves were turning yellow one by one, hanging on the trees. When the wind blew, the whole yard was covered with fallen yellow leaves. Shen Guidi looked at the yellow leaves all over the sky and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

These days, she could always see the maids in the mansion sweeping the yard over and over again.

So this is the reason?

Shen Guidi thought with some amusement.

After a while.

She called out to the maidservant who was serving behind her, "Go and call Steward Wang over."

The man glanced at her and left quickly.

After about a cup of tea.

Wang Huan arrived.

Although he knew that the bride was replaced on the wedding day, this was still the first time he saw Shen Guidi.

He was originally going to come two days ago.

After all, this is the princess recognized by the prince, so they cannot neglect her. However, the prince does not want them to disturb the princess's peace, and asks them not to disturb her for a few days to let her adapt.

At this moment.

Shen Guidi sat at the table, poured herself a cup of tea and drank it slowly. Hearing the sound from afar, she raised her eyes slightly.

Coming pretty fast?

"Greetings, Princess." Wang Huan bowed slightly.

He is the chief steward of Prince Yan's Mansion and has a rank, so he is not considered a servant.

Even though Shen Guidi was the master of the palace, he did not have to perform grand formalities, nor did he have to call himself a servant. He only had to do his job well and perform formalities according to proper etiquette.

Shen Guidi came from the common people, so he didn't care about these things.

She raised her eyes, looked at Wang Huan, and then said slowly: "Manager Wang, no need to be polite. This princess needs your help with something. I wonder if you are free now?"

Wang Huan lowered his eyes, a complicated look flashing across his features.

He glanced at Shen Guidi and replied respectfully, "Of course I have. If the princess needs my help with anything, just tell me."

Shen Guidi asked: "This is the prince's main courtyard, so according to convention, where should the princess live?"

Wang Huan looked at Shen Guidi with some confusion, not understanding what she meant by asking this.

He thought about it for a moment and replied, "Princess, according to the rules, you should live in Fuyun Courtyard on your wedding day. That is the courtyard where the mistress of the palace should live. However, on that day, the prince..."

He didn't say the rest of the words, but Shen Guidi understood them.

It was because He Qingchen was half dead that day and it was difficult to move him.

If he can't move, then only the bride can move.

Shen Guiyi laughed at himself and looked at Wang Huan with certainty: "So, Fuyun Courtyard should have been cleaned up?"

"Yes."

"Okay then, call some people to pack up my things and move them to Fuyun Courtyard later."

Wang Huan was stunned: "Princess, you, what do you mean?"

Could that be what he meant?

The princess is going to move out of Fufeng Courtyard and live in Fuyun Courtyard?

The prince agreed?

Based on what he has seen in the past two days, how affectionate the prince and the princess are, would the prince agree?

Shen Guiyi patiently explained: "It means literally, this princess is going to move to Fuyun Courtyard, you ask someone to help pack up all my things and take them over."

"..."

Of course Wang Huan knew that this was the literal meaning.

The issue is……

After thinking about it, Wang Huan had no choice but to ask, "Princess, has the prince agreed to your move to Fuyun Courtyard?"

"Why does he disagree?" Shen Guidi looked puzzled.

The place where she lives now is the main courtyard of the palace, which is not where she should live. Wang Huan himself said that Fuyun Courtyard is where she should live, and it is also the place she should go on her wedding day.

She went there obediently, what's wrong with that?

Wang Huan: “…”

He narrowed his eyes and glanced at Shen Guidi quietly, making sure that she really didn't seem to understand what this meant.

Wang Huan sighed quietly in his heart.

She is indeed a girl from the country who knows nothing.

The prince and the princess are still newlyweds, and they should be enjoying their sweet time. If they move away at this time, wouldn't it ruin their relationship?

If possible, which mistress wouldn't want to occupy her husband's main courtyard and sleep with her husband every day?

Moving out of the main courtyard, the husband and wife live separately. What kind of relationship can they have in the long run?

Thinking of this, Wang Huan couldn't help but envy those ordinary people. Their lives were not so good, but the relationship between the young couples was mostly good, and they slept together every day.

Seeing Wang Huan's hesitant expression, Shen Guidi roughly guessed what was in his mind.

She was silent.

He advised kindly, "Butler Wang, I'm sure you know that I'm here to marry you, right? After the wedding, His Majesty and the Queen Mother sympathized with the prince's health and did not let us enter the palace to pay our respects immediately, so we didn't know what was going on.

Afterwards, the prince brought me into the palace only to explain the situation to His Majesty, and did not meet the Queen.

Your Majesty may not care about the harem, but can the Empress do without?

At this moment, they haven't come to their senses yet.

After a few days, when they came to their senses and found out that their handsome and handsome eldest son had married a country girl and became the laughing stock of the whole capital, how could they still sit still?

Be it out of guilt, heartache, or something else, His Majesty, the Queen, and even His Royal Highness Prince Rong, will not sit idly by and watch the prince being ridiculed and humiliated by everyone.

But I have already taken the princess's place, and I just got married, so it's not easy to ruin it. Then, guess what they will do?"

In order to make these words more convincing, Shen Guidi even removed the distant and superior self-reference and replaced it with "I", which made the words sound more down-to-earth.
