Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Xiao Qingyuan stood up and looked at Shen Wantang. When he was planning to take a concubine, he was so focused on arguing with his mother that he forgot about Shen Wantang.

Only now did he realize that if he wanted to take a concubine, he should indeed inform Shen Wantang. After all, she was his legal wife and the mistress of the household. If he took a concubine on his own initiative, it would undoubtedly be a slap in her face.

And now, even if he could slap himself in the face, he couldn't slap Shen Wantang's face. He really admired her now.

When he looked at Shen Wantang, Shen Wantang was also looking at him.

A trace of surprise appeared on her face: "The prince wants to take a concubine? Who does the prince want to take? Could it be Huayi? I heard that she really serves the prince very wholeheartedly."

Xiao Qingyuan was a little embarrassed: "It's not her."

"If it's not her, then who is it?"

"This……"

Xiao Qingyuan didn't know what was wrong with him. In front of his mother and other people, he spoke so fluently and naturally about taking a concubine. But when Shen Wantang asked him about it, he found it difficult to say it.

It was as if he would feel very sorry for her if he said it.

He hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "I don't really want to take a concubine, but I think that this is the only way to let Mu Ge continue to live in the mansion. However, now that I think about it carefully, this is not a safe solution. Let's forget about taking a concubine!"

Shen Wantang was a little confused. Is that the end of it? He won't take a concubine again? Then why did he make Princess Ning so angry? She thought Xiao Qingyuan had changed his personality and fell in love with Mu Ge!

Princess Ning was very surprised when she heard that he had taken the initiative to tell Shen Wantang that he would not take a concubine.

It seems that he still cares about Shen Wantang's reputation. He knows that she is his Crown Prince's Consort and he has been married for less than three months. It is not unreasonable for him to take a concubine.

Princess Ning felt much more relieved. Whenever her son was close to Shen Wantang, he became sensible and rational. After he was away from Shen Wantang, no matter which woman he was close to, he would become immature.

It turns out that daughter-in-law is the best!

Since her daughter-in-law is so good, she must resolve the issue of Mu Ge and cannot let her stay in the palace any longer, otherwise she is afraid that the relationship between her son and daughter-in-law will be destroyed by her.

Princess Ning made up her mind and waved her hand, asking the two of them to leave.

Shen Wantang was sure that she was fine, so she returned to her yard with peace of mind. When she separated from Xiao Qingyuan on the way, she didn't even look at him, and she didn't even see him open his mouth to say a few more words to her.

It was only after she returned to Wutong Garden that Du Juan reminded her and she realized that Xiao Qingyuan wanted to talk to her.

However, Shen Wantang didn't care what Xiao Qingyuan had to say. She was more concerned about Princess Ning's health.

Xiao Qingyuan made Princess Ning so angry today that she almost couldn't wake up. This was naturally not just Xiao Qingyuan's problem, Mu Ge was also behind it.

We can’t keep Mu Ge any longer!

Shen Wantang's face turned cold: "Qin Xin."

"Princess, I am here."

"Go to a tavern called Sitong in the south of the city and find their shopkeeper Wang. Ask him to come to the palace. If anyone asks you why you asked him to come, just say that their wine is good and I want to order some."

Qin Xin was very smart and immediately realized that Shen Wantang didn't want to buy wine. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Princess, why did you ask the owner of the tavern to come to our palace?"

Shen Wantang did not hide it from her. Although Qin Xin was gossipy, she knew very well what to say and what not to say: "Of course I have to ask him for some information."

"Ah? That shopkeeper Wang is just the shopkeeper of a small tavern. What news can he know? Why don't you ask me? I know all the gossips in the capital."

"The news I want this time is not gossip, but news about Mu Ge's life experience."

Qin Xin was shocked: "How could Shopkeeper Wang know Mu Ge's background? Didn't both her parents die? The prince didn't find out anything!"

Shen Wantang patted her hands and said, "Don't worry. As long as the money is enough, Manager Wang can dig up a person's entire family and find out all her ancestors. The prince may have only checked Mu Ge's parents, but not Mu Ge's other relatives and friends. What I need are Mu Ge's other relatives and friends."

"Are you going to..."

"I want Mu Ge's relatives to come and pick her up!"

Qin Xin's eyes suddenly lit up: "Crown Princess, you are finally going to take action against Mu Ge!"

Madam Chai at the side could not help but get a little excited: "That's great! The Crown Prince's Consort should have taken action against Mu Ge a long time ago! Huayi said that she often said bad things about you in front of the Crown Prince! She is not a good person. She even deliberately brought Chu Yanluo's letter to the Crown Prince to win his favor!"

If Shen Wantang doesn't take action, Mu Ge will probably really become the prince's concubine!

By then it will be too late!

Shen Wantang did not react much to their excitement. She dealt with Mu Ge not because Xiao Qingyuan wanted to take her as a concubine. In fact, if she really wanted to deal with Mu Ge, it would be easier to control her after she became Xiao Qingyuan's concubine.

She wants to drive Mu Ge away now just for her mother-in-law.

Mu Ge couldn't make her angry, but he could make her mother-in-law angry, and even made her seriously ill and she almost couldn't wake up.

This won’t do. This is Shen Wantang’s bottom line, and no one can challenge this line.

Shen Wantang's current prosperous and peaceful life is all thanks to her mother-in-law, in addition to her own efforts. Her mother-in-law is her supporter, and she will never let anyone off easily if he dares to touch her supporter!

Shen Wantang picked up a pen, wrote a note, and handed it to Qin Xin: "Go to Sitong Tavern now. I want to see Manager Wang before dusk."

Qin Xin took the note, put it away carefully, and turned to leave.

Shen Wantang instructed Madam Chai again: "Go tell Huayi to keep a close eye on Mu Ge. No matter where she goes, what she says or does, I want to know! If she can't keep an eye on her well, then I'll find someone else to keep an eye on Shizi!"

Nanny Chai rarely heard her speak in this tone. She was usually kind and lenient to her servants. Now, her cold tone contained a warning, and it was obvious that she was really angry.

However, the more Shen Wantang was like this, the more Madam Chai felt a very special sense of security - a mistress of the house cannot be too kind, otherwise no one will be afraid of her, which is not a good thing.

Now the Crown Prince's Consort is kind when she should be kind, and she is powerful when she should make an example of someone to scare him. It makes people want to worship her!

Nanny Chai went to find Huayi with excitement. As expected, as soon as she conveyed her words, Huayi knelt down in fear on the spot.

"Please rest assured, Princess. I will keep a close eye on her and report everything to her!"
