Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Shen Guannian hurriedly led his men forward to stop them: "Prince, our family has prepared wine and food, please have dinner before leaving! Tang'er, why don't you persuade the prince to get out of the car!"

The carriage couldn't move, Xiao Qingyuan lifted the curtain and shouted coldly: "Mo Ji, why are you just like your name? I'm already here, why don't you drive the carriage? Whoever blocks the way will be whipped by me!"

Mo Ji immediately swung the whip towards the ground, hitting Shen Guannian exactly an inch away from his feet.

Shen Guannian was so frightened that his face turned pale and he took several steps back.

The onlookers were also shocked. Prince Ning was obsessed with the girl from the Chu family who had become a nun every day. His reputation as a romantic was so well-known that people almost forgot that he was also very arrogant and domineering!

Everyone automatically made way for the palace's carriage, which started moving, and soon disappeared at the end of Ye'anfang.

Shen Guannian was extremely angry, his nose and eyes were no longer eyes. He was completely embarrassed today!

He wanted to scold Shen Wantang, but Shen Wantang had already left and he couldn't.

So, he looked at Qi angrily: "It's all your fault! Go back quickly!" It's so embarrassing!

After he said that, he hurried home.

Qi had never dreamed that a visit to her parents' home would cause such a commotion. She hurried back to the courtyard and shouted anxiously, "Madam Yin, close the door quickly!"

Nanny Yin closed the door, and everyone, covered in dust, returned to their own courtyards.

Only Shen Mingxuan stood there motionless.

Her face turned as pale as a ghost, and she murmured, "Impossible, how could Xiao Qingyuan accompany Shen Wantang back home? He didn't even accompany me back home, how could he accompany her back home? Impossible..."

No one heard what she said except Liao Youhe who was very close to her.

Before the wedding, Liao Youhe met Shen Mingxuan at her request. At that time, she proudly told him that she had the ability to predict the future and said that as long as he married her, he would pass the imperial examination next year.

He didn't believe it, and he had studied hard for more than ten years, so he still had some confidence in himself. He believed that he would be able to pass the exam whether he married Shen Mingxuan or not.

However, the eldest daughter of the Shen family was the best relative he could possibly marry, so he naturally could not refuse this marriage, and so he agreed without hesitation.

After they got married, he learned from her daily boasting that she did not actually have the ability to predict the future. In her own words, she had already lived a lifetime.

Although Shen Mingxuan never said it explicitly, he still pieced together her so-called previous life from her words.

In his previous life, he married Shen Wantang, the concubine of the Shen family.

And Xiao Qingyuan married Shen Mingxuan.

Liao Youhe frowned slightly. He had actually been looking at Shen Wantang for quite a while. In his heart, he actually preferred to marry Shen Wantang. Apart from anything else, her gentle and graceful appearance made people feel comfortable.

Shen Mingxuan is too arrogant. She obviously doesn't have much knowledge, but she still wants to show off how many books she has read. She relies on her ability to "predict the future" and is very arrogant all day long. She doesn't take the Liao family seriously at all.

As it turned out, her predictions were totally inaccurate!

She said Prince Ning would not come to pick up the bride, but he came.

She said that Prince Ning would not be able to accompany Shen Wantang back home, but he came again.

She said that Prince Ning would be a monk in Fazhen Temple for the next year, but now he has returned to secular life!

She said that Prince Ning only had eyes for the nun Chu Yanluo and would not look at any other woman. But he clearly had his eyes on Shen Wantang today and even vented his anger for her!

Liao Youhe walked past her and went straight back to his room. He wanted to study hard because he began to get scared. He was afraid that the future would be the opposite of what Shen Mingxuan said, and he would not be able to pass the imperial examination!

On the other side, in the palace's carriage.

Shen Wantang consciously sat as far away from Xiao Qingyuan as possible.

"Shen Wantang."

"Prince, please speak."

"I have already reminded you that the person I want to marry is not you. My father and mother recognize you as their daughter-in-law, but I don't! Therefore, you have no right to call me husband!"

"Yes, the prince is right. I was abrupt. I won't do it again in the future."

"From now on, no matter when or why, you can't call me like this! In this world, only Yan Luo can call me like this."

"It's my fault. I apologize to the prince. I'm sorry."

"Also, don't always look so humble. You don't look like you have any aura at all, and it's easy to make people hate you!"

Shen Wantang's heart moved. He doesn't like humble people?

She acted a little more humble: "The prince taught me a lesson."

Xiao Qingyuan looked at her with her head bowed submissively and wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't say anything.

Doesn't she have any temper at all?

Made of cotton?

Made of mud?

He can compete with a tiger to prove how strong and powerful he is, and he will have an infinite sense of accomplishment if he wins.

But if he fought with a ball of cotton, what would that prove? Prove that he was incompetent?

If he continued to scold her, it would seem like he was bullying her.

He could only shut his mouth and lean against the car to take a nap - he had not slept for two days because of his father's constant torment.

By the time he arrived at the palace, he had already fallen asleep.

Shen Wantang didn't wake him up and got off the carriage by herself.

Xiao Qingyuan's servant Mo Ji lifted the curtain and saw that his master had fallen asleep. After being stunned for a while, he did not wake him up. His master had been kept awake by the prince for two days and two nights without sleep. He was almost at his limit and it was time for him to get some sleep.

The princess was a little surprised when she heard that Shen Wantang had returned. After she saw Shen Wantang come in to pay her respects, she asked, "Why did you come back so soon? Could it be that Yuan'er has changed her mind again and is unwilling to accompany you back home?"

Shen Wantang smiled faintly, "No, mother misunderstood the prince. He accompanied me back home, but there was no one at home to meet him. He stood outside for a long time. Later, he probably felt that I was not valued by my family, so he simply brought me back."

"Mother, the prince may look cold, but he is actually soft and warm inside. He is standing up for me. I am really grateful to him."

The princess was stunned. For the past two years, people outside had been scolding her son, saying that he had been kicked in the head by a donkey, that he was stupid and foolish, and that he even treated a woman who was pregnant with a bastard as a treasure. This was the first time she heard someone praising him, and she almost burst into tears for a moment.

She took Shen Wantang's hand and said, "Good boy, you are still speaking for him. He is a scoundrel. I gave birth to him, how could I not know him? I'm afraid he is still thinking about the nun in Jixin Temple, so he refuses to enter the Shen family."

Shen Wantang did not shy away from this matter: "The prince is a man of deep affection and loyalty, so he never forgets his original intention. If he falls in love with every woman he sees, that would be terrible! Anyway, I have returned home, so it doesn't matter how long I have been back."
