Bab 290: Testing

After coaxing the two children to sleep, Xiao Jin followed Su Ying to the front courtyard.

A thin, fair-skinned middle-aged man walked in.

"Your servant Zhang Shuming hereby pays his respects to Your Highnesses."

"Caretaker, please rise." Xiao Jin said to Su Ying, "Eunuch Zhang followed me when I was still in the palace. After I left the palace, he followed me out. When I went to the border, I let him go back to recuperate. Now that there's no one watching over Prince Qi's Manor, I can only ask Eunuch Zhang to come back first."

Zhang Shuming quickly raised his head to glance at Xiao Jin. Su Ying saw that his eyes were red-rimmed. "It is my fortune to still have the opportunity to come back and serve Your Highnesses. Your Highness, don't worry. I will definitely do my best to share your burden."

"Mm-hmm. Then I'll have to trouble you. In the future, whatever Princess Consort Qi asks you to do, just do accordingly."
