Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Xiao Qingyuan was used to her pride and lack of rules. After all, this was the biggest reason why he fell in love with her at first sight. The more unruly she was, the more special he thought she was and the more he liked her.

But Huo Yunzhou was surprised to see her sitting over.

He already knew Chu Yanluo's name, and naturally he also knew that she was Xiao Qingyuan's concubine. Xiao Qingyuan even became a monk for her. But he didn't expect that Chu Yanluo was so comfortable and proud with Xiao Qingyuan. She didn't look like a concubine at all. She was almost riding on Xiao Qingyuan's head.

Is this a concubine or an ancestor?

It was not known whether Xiao Qingyuan wanted to find out who the murderer was from her or if he just doted on her like this, but he actually poured a cup of tea for Chu Yanluo himself.

Huo Yunzhou was stunned. It was the first time he saw a concubine being pampered like this.

How could the Crown Prince's Consort tolerate this?

Why couldn't Xiao Qingxi tolerate it at all? Wasn't he much better than Xiao Qingyuan?

No, he would have to learn from Xiao Qingyuan and ask him how he balanced the relationship between his wives and concubines.

Chu Yanluo had no idea what Huo Yunzhou was thinking. She saw Huo Yunzhou staring at her without blinking, as if he was stunned by her. She was secretly satisfied with her charm.

She drank her tea and raised her chin and asked, "What benefits can I get if I tell you who the murderer is?"

Xiao Qingyuan stared at her: "What benefit do you want?"

"I want a promise from the prince."

"What promise?"

"I want you to swear personally that you can't take any concubines or touch any other women except me in this life. You can only have me!"

When Chu Yanluo said this, he glanced at Huayi who was standing aside to serve him, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

If you want to snatch a man from her, wait until next life!

Even if Huayi is by Xiao Qingyuan's side every day, so what? She still can't compete with him, right?

Huayi also glanced at her and knew that her words were directed at her, but she could only worry and could do nothing.

Xiao Qingyuan had clearly promised to promote her before, but later he never mentioned it again, and even didn't take her with him when he went out. She felt that this had a lot to do with Gu Qianhan, but there was no good solution. She could only serve Xiao Qingyuan more gently and attentively, so that he wouldn't drive her away.

However, when Chu Yanluo made this request, before Xiao Qingyuan could say anything, Huo Yunzhou rejected it for him: "Qingyuan asked you to reveal the murderer for my sake. If you want benefits, you should ask me, not Qingyuan."

"How about this, if the murderer you're talking about is the real murderer, I can give you some gemstones and jewelry I brought back from the northwest, and some gold and silver, enough for you to spend for the rest of your life. This is much more practical than asking for a promise."

However, Chu Yanluo said proudly: "I don't want any gold, silver or jewelry. I, Chu Yanluo, am not a vulgar person like you. Gold, silver and jewelry can impress those vulgar and ordinary women, but they can't impress me."

Huo Yunzhou was stunned: "You don't want gold and silver?"

"No! Don't bring up such vulgar things, or you will pollute my ears."

What a joke! As long as she can make Xiao Qingyuan love her forever, what gold, silver and jewelry will she not have? In the future, if she gives Xiao Qingyuan a son, the entire palace will belong to them and his son!

Does she need Huo Yunzhou to give her these few gifts?

As for Shen Wantang, if Xiao Qingyuan didn't touch her, who would she live with? She would live out her life alone!

Seeing how straightforwardly she rejected him and how arrogant she was, Huo Yunzhou immediately changed his opinion of her: "You don't value money over promises, but you are a rare pure woman in the world. Qingyuan, she is really good, no wonder you like her so much."

When Xiao Qingyuan heard him praising Chu Yanluo, his bad mood disappeared.

Chu Yanluo always reveals her pure pride inadvertently. She doesn't love Jin Yin, she only loves him. This time she regained all the face he had just lost.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Chu Yanluo became gentle again, and the hesitation just now disappeared. He said, "Yanluo, I can agree to your request."

Chu Yanluo was delighted: "Really? Do you agree to everything I just said?"

"Yes, I promise."

"No, words alone are not enough. You have to write it down and stamp it with your personal seal! This way you won't be able to deny it later!"

"can."

As Xiao Qingyuan spoke, he asked Huayi to spread out paper and grind ink, and then wrote it down according to Chu Yanluo's request. After the ink dried, he stamped it.

Chu Yanluo was extremely happy when he received this promise.

She glanced at the painting provocatively, then folded the paper carefully and put it in her arms.

Seeing her so serious, Xiao Qingyuan felt that Chu Yanluo really liked him and cared about him now, so he spoke more gently: "Yanluo, can you tell me who the murderer is now?"

Chu Yanluo looked at him, then at Huo Yunzhou, and seeing that the two grown men were looking at her expectantly, she felt a strange sense of satisfaction in her heart.

She couldn't handle Gu Qianhan, but she handled Huo Yunzhou easily!

If Xiao Qingxi dares to hit her, she will lure over Huo Yunzhou, the person Xiao Qingxi cares about the most, and make her angry to death!

Moreover, she also has a shocking secret about Lin Rouxin, so she doesn't have to worry about Huo Yunzhou not taking the bait.

"Yanluo?"

"Cough cough!"

Chu Yanluo cleared his throat and said, "Listen carefully, the thirteen members of the Xin family are not missing. They were killed by the same person. This person is called Xiang Meng."

"I'm telling you Xiang Meng, you definitely don't know who he is, but if I tell you that Xiang Meng is the son of Shen Wantang's dowry nanny, you'll understand, right?"

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned: "Shen Wantang married Nanny's son? How could it be? Did you make a mistake?"

"Of course I'm not mistaken. Shen Wantang's dowry nanny's surname is Jin. Nanny Jin's son is vicious and cruel. He has done a lot of bad things! You only need to tell the Ministry of Justice Xiang Meng's name, and the Ministry of Justice will naturally be able to get to the bottom of the case."

Chu Yanluo spoke with great confidence, but Xiao Qingyuan and Huo Yunzhou looked at each other and saw doubt in each other's eyes.

Chu Yanluo saw their doubts, but she didn't care. After all, what she said was true. The murderer was Nanny Jin's son, Xiang Meng.

This Nanny Jin was Shen Mingxuan’s dowry nanny in her previous life. The Xin family’s case was also uncovered at that time, but it was not actually solved until two years later.

At that time, Nanny Jin's son was confirmed to be the murderer, and the entire palace was shocked. In order to clear herself from the murder, Shen Mingxuan immediately drove Nanny Jin away. However, Xiao Qingyuan was still very disgusted with Shen Mingxuan because of this incident, and felt that she was not a good person because she condoned evil.

In the previous life, the Xin family case was solved by Liao Youhe two years later, and it was also the case that made him famous.

However, now all the credit goes to her, Chu Yanluo!
