Chapter 722: Many Cheats 43
Prince Anjiang glanced at Linlang, probably thinking that Linlang was not thinking about this when she looked at him just now. However, he was not curious enough to ask Linlang what she was thinking. After all, he had already asked, and the other party was unwilling to say, but he continued to ask. Wouldn't that be tactless?

Linlang knew that her answer was obviously irrelevant to the question, but she didn't want to ask Prince Anjiang why he asked to marry her in the first place.

Whether in the original world or in Linlang's world, the two were not very familiar with each other at that time, and judging from Prince Anjiang's performance now, he didn't like her very much. But whether in the original world or in this world, Prince Anjiang took the initiative to ask for marriage. This was obviously a strange place. After the two became familiar with each other, and Linlang still couldn't find the reason, she would definitely ask him about it. After all, it was too uncomfortable to have doubts in her heart and not be able to figure it out.

But not now, because she has only been in the mansion for a short time and is not very familiar with Prince Anjiang.

On the birthday of Princess An, Linlang copied the Buddhist scriptures without any problems and passed the test smoothly without being troubled by Princess An.

Of course, Princess An usually doesn't make things difficult for others. After all, she no longer takes care of the household and just wants to be a feudal lord and live happily. Why should she care about those trivial matters?

How wonderful it is to have money, free time and no work. It is worse than Linlang's life. After all, she is the boss in the house and no one dares to offend her. Although Linlang also has money, free time and no work, she has someone to control her, so she is not as free as her.

Princess An did not make things difficult, but that did not mean there were no disturbances in the palace.

As mentioned before, even the Princess An's housekeeper power was fought over by someone, and she failed and had to divide part of the power to others. This shows that in the palace, there are some forces beyond the control of the Princess An, and even beyond the control of the Princess An. After all, if the Princess An could control them, as long as the matter of the housekeeper power was reported to her, she would definitely help her own son to keep the housekeeper power and would not let others divide it away. After all, dividing the Princess An's housekeeper power would mean that her son's family would make less money. Who would want that?

The reason why it was not saved was because there was a powerful force in the mansion, and this powerful force was none other than a favored concubine in the mansion.

However, it is said that back then, as a prince, Prince An's marriage was arranged by the emperor of the previous generation. Maybe the candidate was not someone Prince An liked, so when the emperor of the previous generation was still alive, he was still able to give some courtesy to Princess An, so as to prevent the emperor from thinking that he disliked the person chosen by the emperor and anger the emperor.

After the death of the previous emperor, Prince An let himself go and became cold towards Princess An. He only had a good relationship with the concubine he personally selected to enter the palace. As a result, as soon as the wife of the eldest son born to this concubine (this concubine also gave birth to two sons) entered the palace, she began to fight for the right to manage the household. The concubine also whispered in Prince An's ear, saying that his son's title in the future would be neither a prince nor a duke, but just an ordinary general guarding the country. It cannot be that he does not even have any money, so he wants his daughter-in-law to be the housekeeper and make some money so that he can live a better life in the future.

When Prince An heard what the concubine said, he felt that it was right. The concubine's family was the one he liked. However, the person he liked didn't get the best, which already made him unhappy. How could he accept it if he didn't even have money?

So he naturally agreed to let the concubine's eldest daughter-in-law be the housekeeper. The reason was ready. He was not dead yet. The palace belonged to him. Whoever he wanted to be the housekeeper would be the housekeeper. He did not ask the Princess Consort of Prince An to give up the housekeeper power, but just divided it up. That was already good enough.

And now, this concubine's daughter-in-law not only caused trouble for Prince An's wife before, but now she is also causing trouble for Linlang.

It was normal for someone to cause trouble for Linlang. After all, apart from those who wanted to harm the original body and steal the original body's identity as a princess, in real life, it was impossible for there to be no other things to do when interacting with people. It was impossible for all of them to be about stealing the original body's identity as a princess. And the reason why this concubine's daughter-in-law was causing trouble for Linlang was also very simple.

Didn't I say it before? Seeing that Linlang didn't plan to manage the household, the Princess of Prince An didn't need to continue distributing the cakes, saving a lot of money. She was happy and satisfied with Linlang, so she planned to give Linlang some benefits? Of course, she couldn't share this benefit with her own gains, so she planned to take advantage of the public.

Therefore, Princess An's Crown Prince added Linlang to the list of people in charge of the birthday party held for Princess An, and assigned her the task of being her deputy, helping her.

Of course, Linlang didn't have to do anything but wait to get the money from being the deputy. Anyway, the money came from the public treasury, so it would be a waste not to mention Linlang's name.

In the past, when there was no power sharing, she would naturally not hang up, because the public money was almost her money. If she hung up an idle person who was drawing a salary for nothing, then it was her money that was being spent.

But now, there are so many more people in the housekeeping department, and the money in the public treasury is no longer hers. So what is she waiting for? Naturally, she has to find a way to get the money in the public treasury into her own pocket, so she added Linlang's name in, and also planned to fix Linlang's position as the deputy, so that she can receive a sum of money from the public treasury every month through this position.

It's better to let Linlang take it away than to let someone else take it away.

There is no need to worry about others questioning Linlang's empty salary. Linlang's position is her deputy. She can definitely say that in private, Linlang gave her a lot of useful suggestions. It's not just empty salary, but really useful. Doesn't this deputy's title become legitimate?

As a result, the second wife in the mansion, Concubine Cao's eldest daughter-in-law, still jumped out to question the rationality of appointing Linlang as deputy, saying that Linlang did nothing, so how could she be appointed as deputy and then receive money from the public treasury.

Although Prince An's wife had already given the reasons she had thought of, saying that Linlang had given her many useful suggestions in private and was not just drawing a salary for nothing, the Second Mistress was still adamant and refused to give Linlang the position of deputy. She said that if Linlang could be a deputy, she would also have a deputy, and as for who that person would be, naturally, whoever she wanted to be her deputy would be the deputy.

——The real dagger is revealed when the plan is fully realized. This is why the Second Wife opposed it, because she saw Prince An’s wife inserting someone to be her deputy, and she also wanted to get a deputy to make money.

So she was not against Prince An's wife arranging Linlang as her deputy, but she wanted to take advantage of the situation so that she could also arrange a deputy to make money.

Upon hearing this, the Princess of Prince An couldn't help but laugh angrily and said, "The only ones who can be in charge are us sisters-in-law. Not everyone can be a deputy. Could it be that if you are not the mistress of Prince An's mansion, you are still qualified to be the person in charge? What are you thinking about?"
