Chapter 4 Dealing with the Unruly Servants of the Crown Prince's Residence
Reading Settings
The main house courtyard is very close to the second house courtyard; you only need to pass through two hanging flower gates and a corridor to get there.
Since the main branch of the family currently only has one orphan, Su Wanshi, many courtyards are empty and dark.
However, Su Wanshi used to boast to her that her parents had left her a lot of wealth and treasures, and had even taken her to see the main house's storeroom. So even in the dark, Su Lilu could easily find the storeroom's location.
At this moment, all was silent, the moon disappeared and the stars shifted.
The servants had all gone to sleep, leaving only a few standing guard, and two young servants were sitting outside the storeroom door.
Su Liluo was hiding in a corner watching, wondering how to get rid of them, when suddenly the spirit in her hand spoke again.
"Master, watch this! A wisp of sleeping powder will keep them lying there motionless until dawn!"
After seducing the guards, Su Liluo quietly walked to the storeroom door, took the hairpin from her hair, and began to pry open the door.
Speaking of this, I have to thank the King of Chu. In my previous life, I learned a lot in order to help him win over the officials.
He is proficient in all sorts of strange arts, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, martial arts, and light-body skills.
After entering the warehouse, she took out a luminous pearl to illuminate the space.
The room was very large, with at least a hundred neatly arranged boxes, not including the weapons and swords hanging on the walls.
Su Liluo opened each box and looked inside. Inside were gold and silver jewelry, pearls and jade, exquisite ceramics and rare ancient paintings, as well as many boxes of silver notes.
The spatial spirit also occasionally let out shrieks, marveling at the preciousness of these things.
It took Su Liluo about half an hour to empty the storeroom and move everything into her own space, including the weapons.
"These things originally belonged to my parents, and we can't let Su Wanshi benefit from them!"
Seeing that the warehouse was empty, Su Liluo finally put the lock back on with satisfaction.
Then she went to the second room's storeroom and emptied it completely using the same method.

Three days later, the Su residence was adorned with red silk, and the entire house was filled with joy.
Su Liluo was woken up early in the morning by her maid to get ready.
Although the Crown Prince is currently out of favor, the Su family still dares not neglect the marriage arrangements with him.
Su Liluo was dressed in a phoenix coronet and wedding robe that looked exquisite but was actually made of cheap fabric. She put on some makeup and was then covered with a red veil and sent out of the room.
"Luo'er, once you get to the Crown Prince's residence, you must not act as recklessly as you did at the Su residence. You must show respect even to the nannies there."
Su's mother and the others also pretended to be there to send Su Liluo off at her wedding, but their words were actually sarcastic.
Su Lilu couldn't help but sneer, "Does Second Aunt mean that even if I marry into the Crown Prince's residence, I still have to be subservient to a mere nanny?"
"The nanny in the Crown Prince's residence can be considered a person from the palace. There's nothing wrong with you respecting her. Also, I'm your own mother, don't call me 'Second Aunt'!"
"Hmph! Second Aunt is so unable to distinguish between master and servant, no wonder she is only the wife of a sixth-rank official."
"you......"
Jiang Qinshu originally intended to teach her a lesson, but she didn't expect to be humiliated by her.
It was Su Wanshi, who was standing to the side, who pulled her back and chuckled softly.
"Second Aunt, you don't need to worry too much about your sister. The nannies in the Crown Prince's residence are no ordinary people. If there is anything your sister doesn't understand, someone will naturally teach her."
What she meant was that Su Liluo was being immature, and that someone would naturally teach her a lesson once she went to the Crown Prince's residence.
At the same time, he raised his eyes to indicate that the wedding sedan chair outside the gate had arrived.
A small red sedan chair was parked shabbily outside the gate. The crown prince did not appear, and there were no more than ten servants who came to welcome the bride.
From this perspective, it's clear to everyone that the Crown Prince is not satisfied with this marriage.
That's why Su Wanshi is speaking so smugly right now.
Jiang Qinshu glanced at the situation outside, and her anger subsided considerably.
Despite the Crown Prince's neglect, not a single member of the Su family spoke up for Su Liluo.
Father Su, second brother Su Xuanlang, and younger brother Su Chenfeng all stood to the side with indifferent expressions, as if everything had nothing to do with them.
The eldest brother, Su Lianwu, did not even return to see the bride off.
This was how it was during her wedding in her previous life, so Su Liluo wasn't surprised at all. All she wanted to do now was step out of the Su family mansion as soon as possible.
Once a daughter is married, she is no longer a complete daughter of the Su family, and the second branch of the family can no longer control her.
So, Su Liluo didn't mind at all and got into the bridal sedan chair without any hesitation.
There was no grand procession of red bridal processions, no firecrackers blaring through the streets; it was just like a typical wedding of a daughter from a humble family. The sedan chair quickly arrived at the Crown Prince's residence.
"Miss, we have arrived at the Crown Prince's residence."
Beside her was the slightly choked voice of her maid, Ranmei.
Even though she knew that her young mistress's marriage was not a good thing, when she arrived at the Crown Prince's residence and saw that there was no sign of a wedding, Ranmei couldn't help but feel sorry for her young mistress.
"Okay, help me inside."
Su Liluo showed no emotion and walked straight towards the door.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, an old woman led a group of servants towards me.
"Open these dowry items and let me see them!"
The old woman's sharp, sarcastic voice rang out, followed by a sparse group of people who disrespectfully opened the dowry that Su Liluo had brought.
Su Liluo frowned and shouted sharply, "How dare you! What are you doing!"
As soon as she entered the door, servants came to search through her dowry!
The servants in the Crown Prince's residence are simply too arrogant.
In her previous life, she was married into the Crown Prince's residence under the arrangement of the King of Chu, so this scene did not happen today.
