The best courtyard in the entire mansion... wasn’t the main one where the Prince lived.
Because the Prince seldom returned, spending most of his days at the army camp, and after all the furnishings were simplified, the main courtyard was rather plain.
However, the adjacent courtyard was different. According to the layout, it was designated for the future Princess.
People in the mansion dearly hoped that the Prince would soon marry and bring home a Princess, so they had decorated the intended residence of the future Princess with exceptional care.
Everything was the best.
Of course, limited by circumstances, even the best decoration here... paled in comparison to Beijing. If one were to make a comparison, this place could only be described as a beggar’s den.
As soon as Housekeeper Qian left, Qin Ye turned to Rong Yan and said, "Miss Rong, shall we go in as well?"
Rong Yan nodded slightly; now she finally had the opportunity to look around the place.
It wasn’t luxurious, but the mansion was quite large. Lacking many flowers and trees, the entire courtyard felt especially empty.
It gave off a feeling of desolation.
Moreover, along the way as they entered, they had only encountered male house servants and did not see a single young maid.
Correctly speaking, they hadn’t bumped into a single female.
This made Rong Yan wonder... did Qin Ye have gender boundaries here?
Nonetheless, she did not voice this question. In any case, it was his concern, not hers. There was no need for her to ask too much, and even if she did ask, it wouldn’t make much difference.
She wouldn’t be staying here for very long.
"Over there is the main hall. We’ll head to the main hall first. Later, after Housekeeper Qian has made arrangements, you can go to your assigned courtyard."
Actually, he could take her straight to his courtyard now, but he knew that wouldn’t be quite appropriate.
Rong Yan nodded again, and then she pointed to Rong Jin, who Qin Ye was holding in his arms.
"You’ve been holding him like this for a while. Since Rong Jin is nearly awake now, you might as well wake him up."
It was surprising how sleepy Rong Jin was, as he hadn’t woken up throughout the whole journey.
Qin Ye wasn’t bothered.
"No trouble at all, I will carry him to my place to sleep in a bit. He hasn’t slept well these past few days, and at his age he should sleep a bit more."
Seeing this, Rong Yan said no more.
If he wanted to hold the child, let him be... and judging by the time, Rong Jin should be waking up soon anyway.
Upon entering the main hall, just as Qin Ye was about to speak, Rong Jin happened to wake up.
Seeing that he was in an unfamiliar place, his eyes instinctively searched for his sister and, upon seeing Sister not far away, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister!"
Hearing the call, Rong Yan looked over, "Good, you’re awake. Now come down."
At that moment, Rong Jin belatedly realized he was being carried by Brother Qin. Feeling his cheeks warm, he struggled slightly.
"Brother Qin, please put me down." He was so oversleeping that he didn’t even notice when they dismounted the carriage.
Qin Ye set him down immediately.
Once he was on his feet, Qin Ye said to the siblings, "You both will stay here for a while... just make yourselves at home..."
Rong Yan interrupted before he could finish, "We’ll just temporarily stay for a few days, then we’ll see."
She needed to assess the town. If it was acceptable, then they would settle down temporarily.
Given the chaos in the world, finding a place that felt just right was difficult, so for the time being, anywhere would do.
"...Okay!" Qin Ye’s voice had a tinge of bitterness.
At that moment, Housekeeper Qian came in, "Master... Miss’s residence is ready! Would you like to have a look now?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ye nodded immediately, "Yes, let’s go. Also, instruct the kitchen to prepare some breakfast to eat in a bit."
Housekeeper Qian assured immediately, "Rest assured, Master. The kitchen has already been instructed."
