After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

The princess is such a nice person, completely different from those people that Ling Shuang hates. Ningxue also hopes that Ling Shuang can discover the good in the princess, and hopes that she can get out of the shadow of the past as soon as possible.

Although she didn't know what had happened to Ling Shuang in the past, Lin Qingyao could see that she was very defensive.

Hearing Ningxue's advice, Lin Qingyao guessed that Ling Shuang must have experienced something bad in the past.

Lin Qingyao was not in a hurry to force her, and smiled and said: "It's okay, today is just the first time we meet, and we are not familiar with each other. There is still a long time in the future, and you will slowly get to know what kind of person I am. Ningxue, don't put too much pressure on her. If she feels more comfortable standing and talking, then she can stand, it's okay."

Ling Shuang was actually willing to believe the princess. She was obviously the same person as the prince, and she had no doubt about that.

It was just because she had been hurt before, so even though she thought so in her heart, she couldn't accept it for a while, so she was a little at a loss.

Seeing that the princess was so considerate and still thinking about her feelings, Ling Shuang felt a little guilty.

Ling Shuang hurriedly explained, "Princess, that's not what I meant, nor do I distrust you. I can see that you are the same person as the prince, and different from the masters I have seen before. I am just used to abiding by the rules over the years, and it's hard for me to change for the time being."

Lin Qingyao nodded to show her understanding.

"It's okay. After all, this is the first time we meet today. You'll get used to it. Just do as you wish. Don't be so reserved."

Hearing Lin Qingyao say this, Ling Shuang breathed a sigh of relief, and the tension in her heart was reduced a lot.

"Thank you, Princess. I came here today to pay my respects to you and to ask you when you are going to take over the palace's affairs so that I can prepare the account books and other matters and hand them over to you."

Seeing Ling Shuang get straight to the point, Lin Qingyao smiled slightly.

"No need. You have been in charge of these affairs since my husband was in the palace. You have been managing them in an orderly manner for so many years. We are relieved to leave these matters to you. I am new here and I am unfamiliar with everything. How can I compare with you? No matter what the matter is, it should be handed over to people with talent in this area to achieve better results. In this regard, Ling Shuang, you are much more suitable than me."

Ling Shuang was very surprised to hear this. She did not expect the princess to refuse.

"But Princess, this is what the prince wants. In the past, there was no mistress in the palace, so I took care of it first. Now that you are here, these things should be handed over to you. How can I be qualified to take care of these things?"

Lin Qingyao smiled when she heard this. Ling Shuang was indeed the type of person who did things in a very strict and rule-based manner. What she said was exactly the same as what she had just said.

"Look, I just talked about you, and here you go again. How can there be so many things that are taken for granted? I don't care what others do, I only do what I want. Lingshuang, you must change your mindset in the future, and don't always think that you are inferior to others. You have been the most capable person around your husband all these years, and your husband is assured of everything that is handed over to you. How come you are not qualified? You just said that I am the mistress of the palace, so do I have the final say in the palace now? If I say you are qualified, then you are qualified. I want to see who dares to say no."

Lin Qingyao actually understood Ling Shuang's concerns. She heard that Ling Shuang became the head maid at a very young age, and many servants in Xiao Jingxuan's palace were dissatisfied.

Ling Shuang took a lot of effort to barely suppress them, but some people were pretending to obey and were only under pressure and were not truly convinced.

If it weren't for Ling Shuang's upright character and Xiao Jingxuan giving her the power to manage things, those who were dissatisfied might not necessarily be obedient.

Ling Shuang must be worried that now that the palace already has a mistress, and she is still in charge of these matters, some people might become even more dissatisfied and do something.

When Ling Shuang heard the princess' words, she knew that she understood her concerns, and she couldn't help but sigh at the princess's intelligence again.

"Princess, since you know what I am thinking, you should not give this opportunity to those who are interested. This will be good for both you and the prince."

Only then did Lin Qingyao realize that Ling Shuang was not worried about her, but was thinking about the couple.

"You don't have to worry about that. I'm just handing over the affairs to you. I won't ignore the big and small things in this palace. You've done so well, but there are still people who are not convinced. It seems that my husband treats them too well, making some people arrogant. Since I'm the mistress of the palace, I won't let this happen. Just manage your affairs with peace of mind. Give me some time, and I'll find a way to deal with those restless people. Don't worry, when I say let you continue to manage, it doesn't mean that I will have nothing to do. You can come to me if you need anything."

Lin Qingyao's answer still made Ling Shuang feel relieved. In this way, she would not be overstepping the boundaries, and with the help of the princess, she could get rid of the cancer in the palace, which was not a bad thing.

"If that's the case, then I'm not overstepping the bounds. I'm just helping the princess with the palace affairs. But this is the prince's order, so the prince..."

Seeing that Ling Shuang still had so many concerns, Ning Xue on the side couldn't bear to listen any longer.

"Ling Shuang, can you not be so stubborn? Didn't the prince say that after the princess comes, all matters in the palace will be subject to the princess's decision, and the princess's wishes will be given priority. Since the princess said so, we should just do it. Besides, the princess will tell the prince if there is anything, so there is no need for us to say anything. How can you not understand such a simple thing? If you think this is inappropriate, report the situation to the princess every day. Everything is still decided by the princess, and you are just assisting her."

Lin Qingyao felt relaxed after hearing Ningxue's words. It turned out that this girl was more clear-headed.

Lin Qingyao smiled when she heard this. She was right. These two people were completely opposite in character and ideas.

But this is not bad either, it just makes up for the other party's shortcomings.

"Ningxue, I like what you said, but it's too troublesome to report every day. You can just tell me every few days. If there is anything urgent or you need me, just come to me directly. Is that okay?"

Ling Shuang suddenly realized what Ning Xue said. The couple must have already discussed it and just came to tell her.

She is still worrying about the prince's thoughts. It's really unnecessary.

"What the princess said is very true. I will obey your orders."

Seeing that Ling Shuang was still polite, but at least she gave in after Ning Xue's persuasion, she felt relieved.

Lin Qingyao smiled and said, "That's great, let's decide. Lingshuang, you know the servants in the palace best. I'm going to meet them tomorrow. Tell me about each of them. I need to know everything so I know how to shock them."
