A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

The servant of the Su family had never seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before, so he was already feeling guilty. When he saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looking at him, he was even more frightened.

"Second Young Master... Second Young Master is not here. He went out... went out to drink."

The servant stammered out where Su Yuanqing had gone, then he bowed his head to the ground and didn't dare to raise it again.

The prince looked unhappy, "Drinking? With disaster relief being such a big thing, he still has the time to go out and drink?"

Su Xiangling was furious, secretly cursing Su Yuanqing for being a hopeless case, yet still carefully apologizing to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Your Highness, please calm down. He may have something urgent to do. Please leave for a while."

"When he comes back, I will make him go to His Highness and plead guilty."

The prince didn't know Su Yuanqing at all, so he just let it go and didn't care.

While the prince was asking Feng Jingtong about something, Su Xiangling quietly told the boy, "Go find the second young master and come back, hurry up."

The servant nodded and ran away when no one was paying attention.

The prince had been talking to Feng Jingtong, asking about the details of the disaster relief. He had left the palace in a high-profile manner today to let the emperor know that he cared about the victims. So he asked such detailed questions so that he could report to the emperor when he returned.

Feng Jingtong broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. There were some questions he really didn't understand.

"Your Highness, I have sent someone to the Ministry of Personnel to invite Lord Shen. There are some things that Lord Shen knows best."

Su Xiangling followed behind. Not only was she shivering from the cold, but she also saw dirty victims from time to time.

This made Su Xiangling feel uncomfortable all over. Are these people worthy of being around her?

Seeing that the prince had no intention of stopping, Su Xiangling deliberately let the corner of her skirt get a little stain.

Then she stepped forward and said in a tender voice, "Your Highness, the hem of my skirt is dirty. Is there a place here to change clothes?"

Feng Jingtong quickly replied, "Yes, I told someone to take Liangdi to the back room to change clothes."

Afterwards, Feng Jingtong called his subordinates over and took Su Xiangling to the dressing room.

Su Xiangling brought two palace maids with her when she left the palace this time. They were both her confidants whom she had won over after entering the Eastern Palace.

After the master and his two servants entered the room, Qianyue and Qianxue helped Su Xiangling change her clothes and helped her sit on the bed to rest.

Qianyue whispered, "Your Highness, please rest here. It's freezing outside. Be careful not to catch a cold."

Su Xiangling was still thinking about Su Yuanqing, so she told Qianxue, "You go out and keep an eye on him. When the Second Young Master comes back, ask him to come see me immediately."

Qianxue bowed, turned around and left the room.

By the time Su Xiangling drank two cups of hot tea and warmed up, Su Yuanqing also came back.

When he entered the room, he cursed, "These evil stars are disgusting to death."

As she walked in, she tied the brocade belt around her waist.

Su Xiangling glanced at him with disdain, "What's wrong with that? And can you please put on your clothes properly? How can you show your face in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in such a dissolute manner?"

Ever since Su Xiangling entered the palace, Su Yuanqing has had a bit more respect and fear for his sister.

Hearing this, he shrank his neck and explained, "When I was coming back just now, I ran into a disaster victim and he vomited on me."

"I went back to change my clothes. I knew my sister was anxious, so I didn't pack properly."

After Su Xiangling heard what he said, her expression eased a little. After all, this was a legitimate reason.

After thinking for a while, he said, "You go to the warehouse to work now, and then I will lead His Royal Highness the Crown Prince over. His Royal Highness likes people who are practical and hardworking, so even if you are pretending, you have to pretend to be good enough for me."

Su Xiangling knew that her family background was not good compared to those women in the Eastern Palace. If she really wanted to compete for the position of empress, her family would not be able to provide any help.

So she placed her hopes on Su Yuanqing, hoping that he could be favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and strive to get an official position in the court.

The brother and sister stood up and walked towards the warehouse.

Su Yuanqing said jokingly, "Sister said that His Royal Highness likes practical and capable people? Then why does he favor sister so much? Sister is not practical and hardworking."

He just said it casually, but he knew in his heart that the Crown Prince's treatment of his wives and concubines and his subordinates would definitely not be based on the same standard.

Su Xiangling scolded Su Yuanqing and told him not to talk nonsense. Could he joke about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?

She sighed helplessly in her heart. The prince only doted on her, but did not love her.

Firstly, because of the hexagram, the prince must keep her by his side. Secondly, because the prince is a man.

Before entering the Eastern Palace, she made the prince want to die several times.

She could give him pleasure, and he was willing to give her grace.

While the two were talking, they arrived at the Su family's warehouse where medicinal materials were stored.

The servant guarding the warehouse was also from the Su family. He quickly opened the door and invited the two of them in.

As soon as she entered the door, Su Xiangling subconsciously covered her mouth and nose.

The smell of the warehouse made her frown and she almost vomited.

"What does it smell like?"

She wanted to follow the smell and find where it came from, but the smell filled the entire warehouse and she couldn't find the source.

Su Yuanqing said nonchalantly: "It's just a small matter. Some medicinal herbs are moldy. It's nothing serious."

Su Xiangling was shocked and walked to a bag of medicinal herbs, opened it and took a look.

The black mold spots on it were shocking. Once the bag was opened, the smell became even more pungent.

Su Xiangling pulled Su Yuanqing over and said in a low voice, "How could this happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier? How can we let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come over?"

Not only must we not lure His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here, we must also prevent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from discovering this place.

Su Yuanqing didn't take it too seriously. "What's the matter? They are all disaster victims. Giving them this kind of medicine is good enough."

"If you want to use good medicinal herbs, you have to be lucky enough to do so."

Su Xiangling thought more than he did and asked, "Don't the officials in the Ministry of Revenue know about this? Haven't they come to see it?"

Su Yuanqing shook his head and said, "It's just the beginning of the disaster relief work, there are a lot of things to do, and the officials are all overwhelmed. These things have been assigned to these disaster relief merchants, so no one has come to see it yet."

"It's okay if someone comes. We have good ones here. Isn't it easy to hide it from others?"

Su Xiangling paced back and forth in the warehouse, the handkerchief in her hand was wrinkled.

"This won't work. What if someone dies?"

"This kind of moldy medicinal material can make people sick even if they are healthy."

Su Yuanqing laughed when she heard that. "How can they be so delicate? You're overthinking it. Do you think those disaster victims are as delicate as us? In fact, they are all thick-skinned and tough."

"I've encountered a few sick people today, but they will die in a few days. It's good that they die, and it can save us some medicine."

A thought flashed through Su Xiangling's mind, but she quickly caught it.

"Wait, you mean that sickly guy? The one who vomited on you today?"

"Is he vomiting badly? Has he drunk the medicine here?"
