Xu Yanzhu's intuition was not accurate, there was no way to verify this matter right now.

However, because she found out about this news today, on the second day, when Consort Xu Nuanwen of the Fifth Prince sent someone to take Xu Yanzhu to the Fifth Prince's residence to relax, and asked her if she needed any help, Xu Yanzhu took the initiative to inform Xu Nuanwen of this matter.

”Aunt, I just came to the capital, so I don't know much about Jiang Family. This time, I only brought one Cui Hua which I can use.” Xu Yanzhu looked at Xu Nuanwen and spoke. After saying that, he thought for a while before continuing, ”I want to ask Aunt to borrow two people to help me gain a foothold in Jiang Family.”

Xu Nuanwen looked very much like the Old Madame Xu, but she was much more exquisite than the Old Madame Xu and her eyebrows were the same as Xu Shiqiu's.

Although she couldn't leave the capital for so many years, she was doted on by the Fifth Prince, so she looked just like Xu Yanzhu's sister.

Hearing Xu Yanzhu's words, she first pursed her lips, and then said: ”Even if you didn't say it, Aunt would have arranged two helpers for you.” Saying that, Xu Nuanwen looked down and two servants in their thirties walked out.

”The peony and the crabapple are from the Consort De's palace. They are both female officials of high rank.” Xu Nuanwen did not lie to Xu Yanzhu. After seeing the astonishment in the depths of Xu Yanzhu's eyes, she continued to say with a smile. ”You don't have to worry.

As soon as Xu Nuanwen finished speaking, Peony and Begonia immediately bowed towards her and Xu Yanzhu. They did not take Xu Yanzhu seriously at all, acting arrogantly and not putting him in their eyes, just because they came from the Consort De Empress' side.

Looking at the peony and crabapple that went in and out, Xu Yanzhu couldn't really say that he didn't want them.

In the end, Xu Yanzhu could only nod towards the two of them, and then call Cui Hua to bring the two of them to the side to familiarize themselves with her affairs.

After Peony and Begonia left, Xu Yanzhu couldn't wait to look at Xu Nuanwen, wanting to know why her aunt made such arrangements.

”Are you curious about why your aunt arranged it?” Xu Nuanwen was well aware of Xu Yanzhu's intentions, and immediately asked before she could even open her mouth.

”Yes, I don't understand why aunt gave them to me.” After Xu Yanzhu said this, she thought for a moment before continuing, ”Could it be that Aunt was also forced to do this?”

”No, my aunt specifically went to the palace to beg for you.” The moment Xu Nuanwen opened her mouth, Xu Yanzhu was immediately shocked to the point that her eyes were wide open.

Seeing the shock on Xu Yanzhu's face, Xu Nuanwen sighed before continuing, ”Yanzhu, our Xu Family is not the same as it used to be, but we're actually using it to get the imperial concubine.

Currently, in the palace, only the Consort De was barely a match for the Imperial Concubine. The Empress of the other palace palaces did not dare to directly oppose the Imperial Concubine.

Even though Aunt is the Consort of the Fifth Prince, she is still a junior and cannot help you directly. That's why she entered the palace and asked the Consort De to choose two female officials from her palace to help you.

With them here, even if it's Jiang Family, you have to take into consideration the Divine Consort De behind them, so you definitely won't dare to directly make things difficult for you. ”

After saying that, Xu Nuanwen saw that Xu Yanzhu was still somewhat unwilling, so she pointed at her head and continued: ”Foolish child, if you accept these two, it means that your Xu Family is still supporting your uncle. Your imperial concubine will only think that the Consort De values you.

Don't be angry either. Your grandmother has already explained to me in a letter that if Xu Family were to be involved in these matters, it would only support your uncle and not anyone else. Even though your grandmother didn't say what you were going to do in the capital, your aunt could guess.

With the peony and begonias, Consort De will also be at ease with Xu Family. After you get married, Aunt will bring you to the palace and you will be the one to negotiate conditions with Consort De on behalf of Xu Family. Others might not know what happened that year, but the Consort De definitely had evidence.

Although your Xu Family is different from before, when next year's ten years comes, your uncle will become an official in the capital, and your Cousin will already be married to him. Even if your Third Uncle is not willing to return to the capital, your Xu Family will also slowly grow.

The Consort De understood all of this, which was why she was willing to arrange two of her most trusted aides to help you. Your aunt arranged for you to protect them. If you have your own matters to attend to, you can leave it to your trusted aides.

As for my aunt, she had long since known that you were going to marry into Jiang Family, so she arranged for a few people to be bought off at Jiang Family.

Only after Xu Nuanwen finished speaking did Xu Yanzhu understand the arrangements her aunt had made.

As she thought about her aunt's secret arrangements, Xu Yanzhu emotionally looked at Xu Nuanwen and said, ”Grandmother was indeed right, my aunt really dotes on me.” Saying that, Xu Yanzhu carefully kept the list that Xu Nuanwen had sent over, preparing to go back later on, after which she also put the list away, and leaned her head on Xu Nuanwen's shoulder.

”Silly child, you are my aunt's flesh and blood kin. How could my aunt not love you?” When he thought about how she had put up with his second brother, Second Sister-in-law, like his parents, he couldn't help but sigh. ”Yanzhu, no matter how much Aunt has done, the following matter still depends on you.

As for what happened that year, you don't have to be so anxious. After you get married, your aunt will bring you to the palace to meet the Consort De Empress and you can explain her attitude towards the Xu Family. The Consort De Empress can't bear to help you with this help, so she will definitely help you. ”

After saying all that, Xu Yanzhu made it clear that she would make good use of the two female officials the Consort De Empress gave him.

”On the day of your wedding, Ye Huan and Ye Shuo will come to give you your wedding. I believe that with the two brothers here, Jiang Family will have some scruples, and won't dare to make things too difficult for you.”

Just as Xu Nuanwen finished speaking, Xu Yanzhu looked at her happily: ”Then I'll have to thank Aunt. With my two cousins here, no one will dare make things difficult for me.”

After hearing what Xu Yanzhu said, Xu Nuanwen was still worried, so she asked her about her dowry in detail.

When she found out that Xu Yanzhu's dowry was brought over from the Xiahe Village and was under the watch of Xu Shiqiu's people, Xu Nuanwen finally relaxed.

”As for Jiang Han, I will send people to investigate. Before we get to the bottom of this, you better remember not to act rashly.”
