Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chu Yanluo raised his chin: "I am your master, you were born to serve me."

"Unfortunately, the prince said that Aunt Chu is not considered the master."

Chu Yanluo's face darkened. "What did you say? The prince couldn't possibly say such a thing. Stop making up stories!"

"Everything I said is true. If Aunt Chu doesn't believe it, you can go ask the prince. Oh, I forgot that I can see the prince but you can't. What a pity."

Huayi straightened her new winter clothes, smiling with a hint of sarcasm: "You knelt down to admit your fault to the Crown Prince's Consort, and only then did your house arrest get lifted. This matter has spread throughout the mansion, and Aunt Chu now also worships the Crown Prince's Consort. Don't put on airs in front of me, you really can't be considered a proper master."

Chu Yanluo's teeth were almost broken when he saw Huayi provoking him fearlessly.

But she also had a doubt in her mind. Why did Huayi suddenly not be afraid of her and dare to challenge her face to face?

Could it be that Xiao Qingyuan made some promise to her?

Chu Yanluo was a little panicked. Could Huayi also be Xiao Qingyuan's concubine? Didn't he promise her that she would be his only concubine in the future? She was only confined for a few days, but he forgot his promise?

No, she had to do something!

How could she, the chosen one who was reborn, be defeated by a worthless maid!

Chu Yanluo was not in the mood to argue with Huayi anymore, so she left Xingheyuan and went to the outside of King Ning’s study.

She wanted to go in, but two guards stopped her and wouldn't let her in.

She knelt straight down and said loudly: "Please forgive the prince this time. The prince is weak and can't stand the firewood room! If the prince is angry, then punish me. I will go to the firewood room for the prince!"

Prince Ning, who was in the study, was stunned when he heard her shout.

After a while, he turned around and asked the guard: "Is that Chu Yanluo outside?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"She said she wanted to be punished for Yuan'er?"

"Yes, she is kneeling outside now."

"Is the sun rising from the west today? She's actually starting to feel bad for Qi Yuan'er? What's she up to?"

The guard hesitated and asked, "Has she finally realized how good the prince is? Has she learned to be grateful?"

King Ning shook his head: "She had never done anything human before, but suddenly she became a good person and knows how to be grateful. Do you believe it?"

"This...Do you want me to drive her away?"

"No, she likes to kneel, so let her kneel."

Prince Ning was worried that he didn't have a good opportunity to deal with Chu Yanluo. Now that she had walked into the trap, how could he let her go?

He pretended not to see the person kneeling outside the study and went out with his guards.

When he came back at night, he saw Chu Yanluo still kneeling there.

Seeing that he had finally returned, Chu Yanluo hurriedly said, "Prince, please release the prince! The prince is just too kind, so he wants to help Miss Ye! You have locked him up for so long, he has learned his lesson, please don't keep him locked up any longer, please!"

"If you think it's not enough, then lock me up! Yan Luo has been favored by the prince and has been protected by him until now. I have no way to repay him. I am willing to bear all the punishment for him!"

Prince Ning looked at her coldly: "If you really want to repay Yuan'er for his protection, then leave him and leave Prince Ning's Mansion. As long as you leave, I will release Yuan'er from the woodshed now."

Chu Yanluo was stunned for a moment. She had been kneeling here for several hours and had prepared a lot of words, but she didn't expect King Ning to block her like this!

She didn't know whether it was because her body was frozen or her brain was numb from kneeling, but she forgot all the words in an instant.

Prince Ning knew at a glance that she was unwilling to leave and did not really want to repay her son. He snorted coldly and left with his guards.

Chu Yanluo looked at his back and a gloomy look appeared on her face.

Why did Prince Ning chase her away? Shouldn't he chase Ye Lingyun away? After all, it was because of her that Xiao Qingyuan was locked up in the woodshed.

She knelt for so long in vain, but failed to persuade King Ning to release Xiao Qingyuan. Now she was in a dilemma. If she continued to kneel, her knees would be broken. If she didn't continue to kneel, wouldn't all the suffering she had endured before be in vain?

She was just struggling with her thoughts when Ye Lingyun came over with her maid.

Chu Yanluo was alert: "Miss Ye, it's so late, what are you doing in the prince's study?"

Ye Lingyun said with a guilty look on her face: "It was all my fault that the prince was punished. I should have been the one to plead for him, but I didn't expect you, Aunt Chu, to be so righteous and plead for him first. I heard that you have been kneeling for most of the day. Don't kneel anymore, go back, I'll kneel first."

Chu Yanluo raised his eyebrows, someone actually came to steal the credit!

Now she couldn't leave even if she wanted to, otherwise Ye Lingyun would snatch the credit away halfway. Even if Xiao Qingyuan was released, he would not be grateful to her. He would only be grateful to Ye Lingyun!

She said with a fake smile: "Miss Ye is a guest and has nothing to do with the prince. How can I make Miss Ye kneel? It is natural for me to plead for the prince. After all, I am the prince's woman, and I should do all these things."

However, Ye Lingyun seemed to not understand her sarcasm at all, and knelt down beside her: "At this time, it's no use distinguishing between host and guest. As long as the prince can release the prince, it's okay for me to kneel down."

Early the next morning.

When Prince Ning passed by the study, he found that not only did Chu Yanluo, who had been kneeling, not leave, but there was also Ye Lingyun next to her!

As soon as the two saw him, they began to vigorously plead for Xiao Qingyuan, one crying with tears in the eyes, the other crying miserably.

Prince Ning was so upset that he was furious: "It was all that bastard's fault. Why did he bring so many women back? They only added to the trouble!"

He was extremely annoyed, and his wife had just mentioned last night that they shouldn't lock up their son for too long, lest he really get sick. So he simply ordered the guards, "Go tell Yan Cheng to release that bastard, and tell him that if he dares to bring a woman back again, he'll have to live in the woodshed for the rest of his life!"

"Yes!"

The guard responded and turned to look for Yan Cheng.

Chu Yanluo and Ye Lingyun hurriedly got up from the ground and wanted to go to the woodshed to pick up Xiao Qingyuan so that they could take credit at the same time.

As a result, both of them had kneeled for too long and their legs became numb, and they fell back as soon as they stood up.

Prince Ning felt even worse when he saw how miserable they were.

He didn't understand why his son was neither like him nor his wife. He was as naive as a child who had not grown up. He believed everything every woman said and had no brains at all.

Is there something wrong with his education method?

Prince Ning left while reflecting on himself.

Chu Yanluo and Ye Lingyun finally recovered after massaging their legs and were able to walk with difficulty. They both limped towards the woodshed.

But when they arrived, they saw that Huayi had taken the lead and met Xiao Qingyuan.
