Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned, then turned to look at Shen Wantang: "As a concubine, I have to kneel down and serve tea to my mistress? Is this true?"

Shen Wantang nodded: "It's true, my Lord. Mother won't lie to you about such a small matter. If you still don't believe it, you can ask Miss Chu if there is such a rule."

Xiao Qingyuan looked at Chu Yanluo again, only to see that she was pale and shaky.

He hurriedly supported her: "Yanluo, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Chu Yanluo shook her head at him, tears in her eyes: "Prince, since there is such a rule, I will just serve tea to the mistress. It's no big deal, right? It's just kneeling, not beheading. But even if it means beheading, I will not back down today."

Xiao Qingyuan felt so distressed when he saw her like this: "Yanluo..."

Princess Ning now finally understood how her son was controlled by Chu Yanluo. It turned out that Chu Yanluo was so good at pretending and speaking!

She pretended to be both proud and pitiful, as if everyone in the world was bullying her. However, even when she was bullied, she still maintained her integrity and character, like a plum blossom in the snow, tenacious and proud.

Princess Ning now understood why Chu Yanluo insisted on wearing white clothes. She had a rather cold and plain appearance to begin with, and the white clothes gave her a pure and innocent temperament. If she had worn clothes of a different color, she would not have had such a strong feeling.

Shen Wantang is three-quarters similar to her, but Shen Wantang never wears such clothes. She does not have this kind of deliberately created purity and gentleness. She is just dignified and calm, which makes people feel comfortable.

It can be said that Chu Yanluo used external objects to maximize her own advantages. She is very scheming and knows how to control a man's heart.

Princess Ning didn't like people who tried so hard to gain personal connections. Her tone revealed a hint of disgust: "If you don't want to kneel down and serve tea to the mistress, then get out. Stop pretending to be so disgusting here!"

"Mother!"

Xiao Qingyuan protected Chu Yanluo behind him: "It doesn't matter how mother scolds me, but you can't scold Yanluo, she has done nothing wrong! Being my concubine is already very unfair to her, why does mother have to be so aggressive!"

Chu Yanluo hurriedly pulled him and said, "Sir, please don't argue with the princess for me. The princess just wants me to follow the rules. I will serve tea to the princess right away!"

After she finished speaking, she brought a cup of tea and knelt in front of Shen Wantang: "Princess, please have some tea."

Shen Wantang didn't expect that she was so flexible and would kneel down as soon as she was told to.

Could it be that she was away for a few days and was stimulated by something? What did Gu Qianhan do to her?

Before, Chu Yanluo relied on Xiao Qingyuan’s favor and was conceited about being a reborn person. Her eyes were almost grown to the top of her head. She refused to accept anyone and would scold everyone, even Xiao Qingyuan!

Now that he was taken back to the palace, that arrogance was gone.

The thought only flashed through his mind, and Shen Wantang did not take the tea from Chu Yanluo, but let her kneel there holding the tea.

Chu Yanluo knew that Shen Wantang did this on purpose. She lowered her head and gritted her teeth secretly, with hatred filling her heart. In her previous life, she had never knelt to Shen Mingxuan. She didn't expect that after her rebirth, her status not only did not improve, but became worse and worse. She even had to kneel to Shen Wantang, a concubine's daughter!

However, she tried hard to hold back and said nothing, because she knew that although she could hold back, someone else could not.

Sure enough, the next moment, Xiao Qingyuan angrily said, "Shen Wantang, what do you mean? Yan Luo offered you tea, why didn't you take it? Don't you want her to be my concubine?"

Shen Wantang didn't look at him. She turned to look at Princess Ning. After Princess Ning nodded, she took the tea from Chu Yanluo, touched her lips lightly, and put down the tea bowl.

She said calmly, "Since I drank your tea, from now on, you are the prince's concubine. You must serve the prince well and not have any delusions in the future. You must not abandon the prince and go away with someone else."

Chu Yanluo's face turned pale and blue. Shen Wantang's words were clearly mocking her for leaving with Gu Qianhan before.

But she had no way to refute this. She had indeed made a wrong move. She had not expected Gu Qianhan to be such a bad person. He pretended to like her so much, but actually tricked her out of Prince Ning's Mansion on purpose to take revenge on Xiao Qingyuan.

She looked up at Xiao Qingyuan, wanting him to say a few words for her, but unexpectedly Xiao Qingyuan frowned and said nothing.

Obviously, he actually cared about this matter in his heart. She followed Gu Qianhan without hesitation, which hurt his feelings in the end.

He was able to take her back this time thanks to her pretending to be sick and pitiful, which made him feel sorry for her again.

Damn Shen Wantang, she was just bringing up all the issues! She was clearly deliberately poking at Xiao Qingyuan's sore spot!

Just as she was cursing Shen Wantang, Shen Wantang spoke again: "My Lord, the procedure for taking a concubine has been completed. Chu will be your concubine from now on. You can go and take care of your own affairs. Chu will stay with me here to take care of my mother!"

Xiao Qingyuan's brows were almost twisted together: "What? You still want her to take care of you?"

"Prince, this is the most basic."

"This……"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at Princess Ning, his eyes full of hesitation. If he let Chu Yanluo take care of him, he would be reluctant to do so. If he didn't let Chu Yanluo take care of him, it seemed that he would not be able to get over the hurdle of his mother.

He was really hoping that his mother would say no, and then he could take Chu Yanluo back to his own yard.

Unfortunately, Princess Ning said as soon as she opened her mouth: "The Crown Prince's wife has been taking care of the sick these days, so Chu must also take care of the sick. She is your concubine now, isn't it her duty to show respect to me?"

"Mother, Yanluo is still sick. She needs care herself. How can she take care of you?"

"Sick? That's great. I called the imperial physician to check my pulse today. She's lucky. I can ask the imperial physician to check her out and prescribe some medicine for her to take care of her body."

"There's no need for an imperial physician. Doesn't Shen Wantang know medical skills? Just ask her to check on Yan Luo. After that, I'll take Yan Luo back."

Princess Ning was furious. She slammed the table and said, "Asshole, I think you are so confused that you have no brains! How can you let the mistress of the house treat the concubine?!"

"Who do you think Tang'er is? She is the daughter-in-law I personally selected, the Crown Prince's consort who was brought in by three matchmakers, six betrothals and eight sedan chairs!"

"She is the face of our Ning Palace. She is the master who is in charge of the entire palace and issues orders. She is not a doctor who treats your concubine!"

Xiao Qingyuan couldn't help but retort: ​​"Doesn't she often treat you? What's wrong with seeing Yan Luo again?"
