The system extends my life, and all my husbands want me to be the empress

The next day, early in the morning.

Lin Wanwan sat at the table with a solemn expression. Opposite her stood the respectful Nanny Li, holding the mansion's account book in her hand.

"Princess, this is the expenditure of the treasury after your marriage..."

Lin Wanwan took the account book and put it aside, frowning slightly and said:

"Madame Li, how much do you know about Yunwang Pavilion? And how much do you know about the Pavilion Master Bai Lian?

Why do you always have letters from Yunwang Pavilion? And why did you ask Lu Mu to hand over the black brocade box to this princess?"

Nanny Li was startled when she heard this. She lowered her head slightly and immediately knelt down. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"After returning from selling paintings at Hongyue Tower that day, remember that the princess gave an umbrella to a beggar."

"remember."

"The beggar later found the old slave and said that he would not take other people's things for nothing and could do something for the old slave.

The old servant wanted to find a backer for the princess, so he asked him to go to the Bai family for help, find Bai Lianyan, and tell her that the princess was in danger. "

"Bai Lian...Lian Lian?"

Madam Li nodded and continued, "Yes, her name is Bai Lianyan."

Lin Wanwan heard the name and asked, "Isn't it Bai Lian?"

Matron Li thought for a moment and said, "I don't know if this name is correct, but I'm thinking that whether the Bai family recognizes this marriage or not, I'll go find it first and see if it's useful.

But I didn’t expect that he would send me a letter after many days.”

Lin Wanwan's eyes were full of doubts, and she asked, "What Bai family? What in-laws?"

Lin Wanwan stood up and helped her up from the ground:

"Madame Li, please get up and sit down to talk first."

Nanny Li slowly stood up, sat to one side, sighed heavily, and said slowly:

"The Bai family is the Prince Consort's family.

Now, it is time to tell the princess that back then, the Prince Consort was actually a cultivator of Taoism.

The Prince Consort also had a daughter-in-law named Bai Yaohua. But both of them were not satisfied with this in-law, so they both came to Xuanyue Country.

Both of them were stunningly beautiful, one became the queen, and the other became the prince consort. "

Lin Wanwan fell into deep thought.

Nanny Li looked at her expression and didn't dare to speak.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Lin Wanwan's eyes wandered in the air, trying to piece together the story behind this information.

Nanny Li just sat there quietly, waiting for the princess's further questions.

After a long while, Lin Wanwan slowly spoke:

"Why? They all have in-laws in the practice of Taoism?

Are they...practicing...dual cultivation?"

Li Ma said: "I don't know this, I only know that the Prince Consort was murdered.

The eldest princess was forced to marry Ye Zhaobo because she vowed to never obey Ye Zhaobo.

He was specially allowed by His Majesty to marry the second wife, Prince Yin Yi."

Lin Wanwan looked at her and asked seriously, "Madame Li, what is the relationship between the Queen and Prince Yong?"

Nanny Li was a little surprised: How does the princess know so much?

She hesitated for a moment, but still said:

"The Queen actually...had a relationship with Prince Yong. Prince Yong was also a simple and honest man with deep affection. He never married in his life, so he has no children now.

It is because of the Queen that His Majesty..."

At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside:

"Princess! Princess! Where are you, Princess?"

This voice is Su Ye!

Lin Wanwan stood up, walked out and saw that Su Ye's skin color had become darker.

As soon as Su Ye saw Lin Wanwan, a bright smile immediately broke out on his face, as if the whole world had brightened up.

"The princess!"

He couldn't wait to walk up to Lin Wanwan, took her hand with one hand, and with the other hand presented a mysterious gift in an exquisite gift box and placed it in her palm.

"A gift for you, my lord."

Lin Wanwan looked at Su Ye's excitement and asked with a smile:

"came back?

What expensive thing did you buy?"

Behind Su Ye, Zi Tan came slowly and said with a smile:

"I didn't buy it. Su Ye made it himself."

Lin Wanwan looked at Zitan and smiled: "You are back too."

Zitan stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings, Princess."

Su Ye also lowered his head shyly, but his eyes were shining with anticipation:

"Princess, please open this gift and take a look."

Lin Wanwan was curious, and when the gift box was slowly opened, a dim but unique metallic luster came into view.

There were three black iron roses, of different sizes, with irregular edges of the petals and obvious signs of manual polishing, appearing a bit rough.

The material of black iron gives the rose a heavy and firm texture. Although the shape of the flower is not perfect, Su Ye's intentions can be seen.

At this time Hua Yu came in and saw the gift at a glance.

Lin Wanwan was just about to reach out to take it.

Hua Yu looked at the gift carefully, frowned slightly and said:

"This flower is too crudely made. Princess, please be careful not to hurt your hands. However, the material is excellent."

Su Ye was very unhappy to hear Hua Yu comment on the gift he had carefully prepared. He quickly closed the gift box and muttered:

"Then I'll...fix it."

Lin Wanwan took the gift box from him and opened it.

Su Ye frowned and said, "Princess, I didn't do well."

Lin Wanwan looked at Su Ye's aggrieved look and said with a smile:

"No, I think it's pretty good."

Su Ye was overjoyed when he heard this. He raised his head and looked at Lin Wanwan with a hint of doubt and expectation in his eyes:

"Really? Princess, which one is better?"

Lin Wanwan picked up a black iron rose, looked at it carefully, and then said to Su Ye:

"I think everyone did a good job."

After hearing this, Su Ye showed a shy smile on his face, and then laughed brilliantly:

"My Lord, are you serious...

Hehe... To be honest, I think it's pretty nice too. After all, it has flowers, stems, and leaves, which matches the princess's beauty."

Lin Wanwan smiled and nodded.

Zitan, who was standing by, was slightly surprised. The princess has learned how to coax people? She has grown a lot.

Lin Wanwan's eyes were still on Su Ye:

"Su Ye, have you found the iron ore?"

When Su Ye heard this, he immediately perked up and said with a mysterious smile:

"It's not difficult for me to find a mine. I found it within a week after the princess left.

Luo Mingyuan and I also opened up a lot of fields to grow grapes.

Later, Lu Mu came back, and I mobilized his troops to mine with him.

Now, he was guarding the city while refining iron tools.

We have also experimented and found that the iron tools produced in Pingyang City are sharper and tougher than before.

Especially the weapons that have been refined, they are very powerful, and they can cut through the previous weapons with just a few chops."

Lin Wanwan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well done, Su Ye."

When Su Ye heard the compliment, he was as happy as a child, with a proud smile on his face:

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess! Also, when the Ministry of Revenue staff were counting the finances, I kept a secret. They didn't even know about this iron mine."

As he spoke, Su Ye's eyes fell on the account book.

He said proudly: "My lord, let's not talk about the profits brought by grapes.

I have calculated that the iron ore in Pingyang City alone can be used to refine ironware or weapons and sell them, and it can become the princess's fiefdom. Really, she won't have to worry about money anymore.

Moreover.

This time I come back, I want to go back to my grandmother and take back all the dowry that my mother left for me.

All to the princess.

Who can have as much money as I have in my little treasury?"

Hua Yu heard this, smiled, turned around and walked out.

Lin Wanwan nodded: "It's just right, this princess really needs a large sum of money."

Su Ye's eyes were full of emotion. He stepped forward tentatively and held Lin Wanwan's hand nervously.

I was ready to be rejected by her.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wanwan did not shake him off, but instead gently held his hand tightly.

Su Ye's face flushed, and then he became bolder and held her in his arms, with a hint of annoyance in his voice:

"Princess, I have already rushed back, but I still... I still didn't make it in time for your wedding."

At this time, Hua Yu came back and looked at them hugging each other.

Su Ye looked at him and hugged Lin Wanwan tighter:

"Hua Yu, why did you say that just now? Do you know the relationship between me and the princess?

Humph, even though you are the Duke of the County, the Princess can't just have her feet on you.

A boat can capsize at any time.

If you keep your feet on multiple boats, you won't let them capsize. How stable!

you……"

Su Ye blinked and watched Hua Yu hand him a ring.

Hua Yu said: "This is for you. Stay by the princess's side. If you are disloyal to her or do anything that harms her, I will punish you."

When Su Ye heard this, his eyes fell on Hua Yu's hand. He then saw that Hua Yu was also wearing the same ring. He instantly understood something:

"Several people have this ring now."

Hua Yu said: "Three."

"Who else? Ouyang Qingyu?"

Hua Yu nodded: "Yes."

"Hehe... I didn't make the top three in the imperial examination, but this one, The Princess's Husband, finally allowed me to squeeze in."

After that, Su Ye's eyes flashed with determination, he let go of his hand, and said quickly:

"Princess, I'm going to move now. I want to move to the Princess's Mansion."

……

After lunch.

The third prince Lin Gao came to the Princess's Mansion wearing a brocade robe and a jade belt around his waist. Behind him followed a group of servants carrying boxes of exquisite gifts.

Lin Gao had a confident smile on his face, but his eyes revealed pride and eagerness. In the court, Lin Xiaohe and Lin Xiaoran had a fight, and it would be best if both of them suffered losses.

And if he could get Lin Wanwan's help, the throne would be within his grasp.

Nanny Li respectfully welcomed Lin Gao into the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Lin Wanwan was wearing a light pink silk dress, her hair was tied up high, her skin was as white as snow, but her body looked weak.

Lin Gao walked into the inner hall, and when he saw Lin Wanwan, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, and he said, "An Ning, I heard that you were injured, so I brought some gifts today, I hope you like them."

Lin Wanwan raised her eyes slightly, took a look at the gift that Lin Gao brought, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said:

"You are too polite, Third Prince. Please take a seat.

Pink peach, fragrant tea. "

After Lin Gao sat down, he glanced at Fen Tao who was pouring tea, his eyes flickered slightly, and he began to greet her:

"An Ning, I have always heard that you are very talented. After seeing you today, I can see that your reputation is well-deserved. This princess's mansion is also decorated very elegantly, which is pleasing to the eye."

Lin Wanwan gently put down the teacup in her hand and said with a smile: "Third Prince, thank you for the compliment. These are all arranged casually by the servants."

Lin Gao was stunned for a moment, and continued with deep emotion: "You are alone now, and you don't have anyone close to you in this world.

This prince has always felt that he and you, An Ning, have a good relationship, if you don't mind.

From now on, I will be your brother and will protect you."

Lin Wanwan's eyes flashed with understanding, and then she politely refused:

"I appreciate the Third Prince's kindness. But I am just a princess who enjoys men, so I dare not marry someone who is too high.

Besides, I am used to being free and I don’t want to have too many concerns.”
