The old prime minister was still considering whether to remind the young couple not to be too optimistic. Footsteps were heard again outside the study, and Long Xiang was seen walking in from the outside with a smile on his face, saluting He Lanji and Chu Tianjiao respectfully, "
The prince, princess, housekeeper and Mr. Zhu are here!"
"Uncle Lan?!" He Lanji's face lit up with joy, and he immediately said with a smile, "Invite them in quickly!"
"Your Majesty has guests, please excuse me first!" Cai Yuan also had a look and knew that it was not appropriate for him to be here, so he bowed immediately and left.
"Prime Minister, there is no need to be anxious!" Chu Tianjiao smiled and told him to calm down, "In a moment, I will send someone to go to the Ministry of Finance with you. With his help, the adults who come to the Ministry of Finance can save some energy.
!”
While the two were talking, an old man and a young man outside had already walked through the door.
The old man was dressed in a gray robe. Although he was dressed like a servant, he was extremely wise. He was Lan Nuo, the old butler of the palace, who had been recuperating in the northwest.
The young man is only about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he is not as handsome as He Lanji, he is still handsome and has a bit of bookishness. His body is thin but not sick. He walks slowly like a green bamboo, tall and straight.
Without losing elegance, it is naturally the same Zhu Qinglan that Chu Tianjiao gave to Helan from the Goulan Courtyard on a whim.
"Lan Bo!" Before the two of them could salute, He Lanji had already walked forward with a smile and held the old housekeeper's arm.
This year, there have been several big twists and turns in the palace. The old butler has obviously become more aged than before. This time he has walked on the line of life and death again. Now seeing him again, Helan
How can one not feel silence in one's heart?
"Lan Nuo is happy to know that the prince is safe and sound, but this body is really useless, and it is not completely healed until now!" Lan Nuo looked at He Lan Ji up and down, just like a father looking at his child. Although he is a servant, he is
Watching He Lanji grow up, she already regarded him as her dearest person in her heart.
"Lamber is the most partial, don't you worry about me at all?!" Chu Tianjiao looked aside and joked with a smile.
Lan Nuo's eyes turned to Chu Tianjiao, who had grown into a big girl and now looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. Although she already knew about this, she was still stunned at first sight, "The princess is becoming more and more beautiful now!"
"Uncle Lan can still talk!" Chu Tianjiao's eyes slanted to Zhu Qinglan's face, who was looking at her quietly, "Why do you suspect that the princess in front of you is fake?!"
"Qinglan doesn't dare!" A look of embarrassment appeared on Zhu Qinglan's cheeks. Chu Tianjiao when he was a child had already made him unable to resist, not to mention that now that she has grown up, this once modest young master, only
Being teased.
Fortunately, Chu Tianjiao had no intention of embarrassing him today.
"Prime Minister Cai, he is the person I'm talking about!" Chu Tianjiao raised his hand and pointed at Zhu Qinglan, "Although you have come a long way and are covered in dust, you have no time to rest in the past two days. I have the budget for the southern wall of the country.
We are in a hurry with the prince, the adults in the household department have been busy for three days, so go and help them!"
Cai Ming has been quietly observing since the two of them came in. He is naturally not unfamiliar with Lan Nuo, but this handsome young man makes him feel a bit familiar.
"Master Cai, there is no need to be surprised!" He Lanji saw the clues from the side and smiled gently, "This Master Zhu is the son of Master Zhu Yizhu, and he is now the young steward in my palace!"
