Chapter 58 Men are trouble
It shouldn't take too long to return to the door, Shen Jiayin got into the carriage after finishing the meal, and hurriedly returned to the prince's mansion.
It's just that she didn't expect that as soon as she walked into Youxiang Courtyard, the housekeeper Fu Bo was waiting in the courtyard early.
Seeing Shen Jiayin coming back, Fu Bo immediately trotted over, knelt down and saluted Shen Jiayin in a proper manner:
"The slave Xiaofuzi visits the crown princess."
Xiaofuzi is usually called like this by the father-in-law in the palace.
But Fubo is dressed as an old butler, and he can't tell that he is a father-in-law at all.
Shen Jiayin looked at Fu Bo with some curiosity and spoke.
"Fu Bo is actually the grand duke who came out of the palace, forgive me for my clumsiness, I can't see it."
When Fu Bo heard Shen Jiayin's words, he hurriedly bowed his head and responded:
"Xiao Fuzi is just a little father-in-law in the palace, and he was appreciated by the prince, so he was able to follow him to the prince's mansion as a housekeeper, and Fubo is just a name for everyone's slave, which makes the princess smile."
Fu Bo looked modest, but he didn't put on a show like other fathers-in-law in the palace.
After some conversation, Shen Jiayin also had some inexplicable affection for Fu Bo in front of him.
Although he didn't understand why Fu Bo suddenly came to see him, Shen Jiayin still looked at Fu Bo with a smile and said:
"Fu Bo, please get up quickly, you are old, so you don't have to do this big gift in the future, just make it simpler."
"Slave Xie Crown Princess cares."
Fauber said gratefully as he stood up.
Although the spring is a little warmer, standing in the yard, there will still be some cool breeze blowing.
Shen Jiayin looked at Fu Bo who didn't look like he was simply coming to see him, so he pointed to the inside of the room and said:
"Fauber, let's go in and talk."
After that, Shen Jiayin took the lead and walked into the house.
Seeing this, Fauber also followed suit.
After entering the house and taking a sip of hot tea to warm up his body, Shen Jiayin looked at Fu Bo and asked:
"Fauber came to me today, but is there anything important?"
If it was an ordinary matter, he only needed to send someone to pass the word, and there was no need to come to such a trip in person.
Fauber didn't reply immediately, but lowered his head and untied the bunch of keys pinned to his waist.
He put the key in the palm of his hand, presented it with both hands, looked at Shen Jiayin and said seriously:
"Back to the crown princess, this is the key to the treasury and account room of the prince's mansion, and the slave came to hand over the key today."
"In the future, all the affairs of the prince's mansion will be handed over to the crown princess."
Fauber's face was stern and cautious, as if he was explaining something big.
However, the power of the prince's mansion is indeed a major event.
Hearing Fu Bo's words, Shen Jiayin frowned.
She stared at the key in Fauber's hand and asked hesitantly:
"Fu Bo is here to hand over the key today, does the prince know?"
Fauber handed the key in his hand forward again, and replied:
"It was the prince's order that the slave dared to hand over the key.
Well? What the hell is Chu Jingchuan doing? The day before yesterday he said that he would keep the people in the house away from his Youxiang Courtyard, and today he asked Fu Bolai to hand over the power of the family?
Sure enough, a man's heart, a needle under the sea.
Shen Jiayin looked at the key in Fu Bo's hand, as if he was looking at some kind of plague, and did not speak for a long time.
Fu Bo waited for a while, and when he saw that Shen Jiayin didn't move, he couldn't help but raise his head, looked at Shen Jiayin, and asked:
"Does the crown princess have any concerns?
Seeing that Fu Bo was going to hand over the power of the family to his master, Lian Qiu and Lian Dong on the side were already excited, and the two of them looked at Shen Jiayin tightly, waiting for her to give an order, and the two of them went to get the set of keys.
But Shen Jiayin was not in a hurry, she picked up the tea, took another sip, and then looked at Fu Bo and asked:
"Fu Bo, when the prince said that he wanted to entrust me with the power of the family, what else did he instruct?
Fauber shook his head and replied respectfully:
"The prince only said that it was natural for the princess to take care of everything in the palace, and let the servants come over and hand over the keys earlier.
Seeing that Fu Bo couldn't ask why, Shen Jiayin looked at Lian Qiu on the side and commanded:
"Lian Qiu, let's take the key next.
"Slaves obey!"
Lian Qiu nodded excitedly, she almost ran in front of Fu Bo, and carefully took the key in Fu Bo's hand.
Seeing that Shen Jiayin had already taken the key, Fu Bo looked at Shen Jiayin and bent down and said:
"Now that the crown princess has taken the key, the slave will retire first, and if the princess is in need, just send someone to summon the slave."
"Then I won't keep you any longer."
Shen Jiayin also nodded and said with a smile:
"Lian Dong, you go and send one to Fu Bo."
"Yes."
Lian Dong stood up and responded with a blessing.
Seeing this, Fu Bo didn't shirk, just looked at Shen Jiayin again, and then turned around and walked outside.
Although the power of the family was handed over to Shen Jiayin, before she officially took over, Fu Bo still had to deal with all the affairs in the mansion.
After Fu Bo left, Shen Jiayin picked up the key and played with it.
She thought that this power of the family would fall into Liu Ruyan's hands, but when it suddenly fell on her head, she was still a little uncomfortable.
"Crown Princess, aren't you happy that this family power has come to us?"
Lian Qiu saw Shen Jiayin's melancholy expression, so he asked with some worry.
Shen Jiayin shook her head, and the set of keys went around in circles in her hand.
After a long time, she spoke:
"This one, I'm afraid it's not easy to manage."
After thinking about it, Shen Jiayin only thought of one possibility, this power in charge of the family fell on his head, it must be the queen's speech, otherwise according to Chu Jingchuan's attitude towards himself, even if it was given to Ji Wanyi, it would be impossible to give it to himself.
"The crown princess."
Lian Dong hurriedly came in, walked in front of Shen Jiayin, and said:
"Madame sent someone to spread the word, saying that the prince went to the Shen Mansion today, but for some reason, after walking to the door, he turned around and left."
"Madame is afraid that something will happen, so she will send someone to spread the word and ask you to pay attention."
Chu Jingchuan went to Shen Mansion today?
Shen Jiayin frowned, and suddenly became a little worried.
She thought about it and made sure that she didn't say anything that shouldn't be said in the Shen Mansion today.
Only then did he nod and answer:
"Let people talk back, and they will say I know."
"Yes."
Lian Dong nodded, turned around and left in a hurry.
Chu Jingchuan's successive abnormalities made Shen Jiayin have a headache.
Men, it's trouble.
