Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

"You are the prince of the palace, and you have the final say in the whole palace. Not to mention a maid, even Shen Wantang can be driven away at any time!"

Chu Yanluo said as she pretended to walk out: "If you can't even give me a maid, then what's the point of me staying in this palace? If Qin Xin is not here, then I will leave the palace and go to a place where you can never find me again!"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at Chu Yanluo's screams and roars, and the veins on her forehead and neck bulging due to her excessive excitement, and suddenly remembered Shen Wantang's tranquility and composure.

Since they got married, he had never seen Shen Wantang lose her composure, nor had he seen her roar hysterically like this.

Occasionally, he would feel that his mother was quite good at judging people. At least the princess his mother chose for him was impeccable except for her poor family background. She was more than qualified to be the mistress of Prince Ning's Mansion.

And Chu Yanluo...

Xiao Qingyuan suddenly felt a little tired, and Chu Yanluo didn't seem as otherworldly and proud as he thought.

She said he was a vulgar man, and she herself looked like a vulgar person too. She was yelling at him for a maid, and she didn't look noble and unworldly at all.

Moreover, he knew very well that Chu Yanluo wanted Qin Xin not because she liked Qin Xin. There was not a single maid in the entire Ning Wang Mansion that she liked. She wanted Qin Xin just to embarrass Shen Wantang on purpose.

Chu Yanluo had already taken a step forward, but saw that Xiao Qingyuan did not come to stop her. Her heart skipped a beat and she had a bad feeling.

Could it be that Xiao Qingyuan really doesn't like her anymore?

She had only lived in the palace for a month, and he was tired of her so quickly? He didn't even stop her from leaving?

In his previous life, he cherished her so much from beginning to end that he was unwilling to let her leave!

Where is the problem?

Shen Wantang?

Yes, it must be Shen Wantang’s doing!

Chu Yanluo gritted her teeth and took a step back: "Qingyuan, you have changed, but you don't admit that you have changed. I am very disappointed."

Xiao Qingyuan didn't say anything, because he didn't know what to say to her for a moment.

He walked out.

Chu Yanluo immediately stopped him: "Didn't you hear me talking to you? Where are you going? Are you going to leave me alone in the mansion again? What if they team up to bully me?"

Xiao Qingyuan pushed her away: "I want to go find Gu Qianhan again."

Chu Yanluo's heart sank: "Haven't you already looked for him? Why do you still want to look for him? Don't go, let's end this matter here. It will have a bad impact on you if it gets out of hand. I don't want you to become enemies with him because of me."

"The hatred has already been formed. Isn't it too late for you to say this now?"

He had already beaten Gu Qianhan, and she had also scolded Gu Qianhan harshly in front of so many people. Gu Qianhan had become a scum and villain condemned by thousands of people overnight. Now she actually said that she didn't want him to be enemies with Gu Qianhan?

Why didn’t he realize that Chu Yanluo’s words were so infuriating before?

Xiao Qingyuan frowned, glanced at Chu Yanluo, then turned and left.

Chu Yanluo was extremely angry. Xiao Qingyuan's attitude towards her had really changed. This was not an illusion. His impatience was almost written on his face!

No, this won't work. She has to find a way to make him focus all his attention on her again, otherwise the duck in hand will fly away!

Tonight, no matter what, I must give him a taste of the sweetness so that he can't stop wanting her!

On the other side, Xiao Qingyuan went to the Duke's Mansion to find Gu Qianhan, but he didn't meet him. Instead, he was scolded by the people in the Duke's Mansion in a sarcastic manner.

It was only after Mo Ji went to inquire that he found out that Gu Qianhan had been called to the palace.

Today's incident caused such a big fuss that even the emperor knew about it. When he heard that Gu Qianhan bullied and occupied weak women, he called him into the palace to reprimand him. It was already dark, and he had not yet returned home.

Xiao Qingyuan felt somewhat uncomfortable. He and Gu Qianhan grew up together, studied together, practiced martial arts together, rode horses together, drank together, and even went to Wanhua Tower to see women for the first time together.

Normally, it was the child prodigy Gu Qianhan who received more praise from the emperor, while he received less praise.

This was the first time that Gu Qianhan was called into the palace alone to be scolded, as happened today.

Although they grew up together, he actually didn't like Gu Qianhan that much, because he was too perfect and too smart. When he was with him, he felt overwhelmed everywhere.

His poems are not as good as Gu Qianhan's, his calligraphy is not as good as Gu Qianhan's, his reactions are not as quick as Gu Qianhan's, not to mention his memory and intelligence. He is not on the same level as Gu Qianhan.

He wasn't even as strong as Gu Qianhan. Gu Qianhan could drink alone and calmly among all the beauties in Wanhua Tower, but he would only be drunk by those beauties and was overwhelmed by their beauty.

No one likes to be outdone in everything, so after he met Yuan Zheng, he quickly became best friends with Yuan Zheng. The reason was not because Yuan Zheng was inferior to him in every way, and this made him finally find the joy of making friends.

Unfortunately, the man he thought was his best brother might have slept with his most beloved woman while he was drunk.

The night was dark. Mo Ji saw his master standing outside the gate of the Gu family without moving. He couldn't help but said, "Master, go back home. It's getting late."

No one in the Gu family's mansion welcomed them at the moment. If they continued to stand outside the gate, the Gu family would probably come with a broom to chase them away.

Xiao Qingyuan finally raised his head and asked in a hoarse voice: "When will Gu Qianhan come back?"

"I don't know. Second Master Gu was called to the palace to be reprimanded. I'm afraid he won't be back for a while. You know, the emperor... likes to make people kneel down until their legs can't stand up, and then he will start to lecture them."

Xiao Qingyuan frowned: "Gu Qianhan is the Queen's nephew, would the Emperor ask him to kneel for so long?"

"My Lord, have you forgotten that you also knelt for two or three hours, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince even knelt for a whole day and night! The closer the person is to you, the heavier the punishment will be!"

Xiao Qingyuan stopped talking.

He had not been punished by the emperor in the past two years and had almost forgotten the emperor's rules.

It seems that he won't be able to wait for Gu Qianhan tonight.

He got on the carriage and told Mo Ji, "Go to Qingyun Tower. I want to drink!"

Mo Ji: "Master, we don't have money."

Xiao Qingyuan: "..."

He was angry and helpless: "Then go back home!"

"Got it!"

Mo Ji drove the carriage and quickly returned to Prince Ning's Mansion.

Xiao Qingyuan returned to his Xingheyuan. As soon as he entered the house, he heard a "ouch" from inside.

He frowned slightly: "Yanluo, what's wrong with you?"

Chu Yanluo's voice came from the clean room: "Prince, I accidentally fell down and I think I sprained my ankle. I can't stand up. Can you come in and help me up?"
