Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Bai'an Lane, Jingsi House.

After Xiao Qingyuan left the palace, he rode here on horseback.

But the old woman guarding the gate wouldn't let him in, so he got angry and kicked the old woman over and rushed in: "Yanluo, here I come!"

However, the person who greeted him was not Chu Yanluo, but Gu Qianhan.

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned: "Why are you here too?"

Gu Qianhan looked indifferent: "This is my house, why can't I be here? But what are you doing in my private house, Prince? If I remember correctly, I didn't tell you the location of this house."

"Where's Yan Luo? Where is she? Did you bully her?!"

"I have never bullied Miss Chu. Why do you say that, my Lord?"

"Don't pretend with me! Yan Luo must have been wronged by you, so she wrote to me!"

"What letter? What did Miss Chu say to the prince? Why don't you take out the letter and show it to me? Maybe the letter wasn't written by Miss Chu at all. After all, she has left the prince, and she is now wholeheartedly preparing to marry me."

Xiao Qingyuan couldn't stand hearing such words. He pushed Gu Qianhan away angrily and went into the house.

In the inner room, Chu Yanluo was lying sickly on the bed. Her face was pale, and with her long black hair and pure white clothes, she looked particularly fragile and thin.

Xiao Qingyuan's eyes suddenly turned red: "Yan Luo!"

Chu Yanluo opened his eyes, with a look of joy on his face: "Prince, why are you here? Did you come to visit me specially?"

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned: "Didn't you write to me and ask me to come? You said you were not having a good time here and asked me to come pick you up!"

Chu Yanluo shook his head: "I didn't write a letter to the prince. The prince should understand my character. I am a man of integrity and pride. Even if I am in a bad situation, I will not ask the prince to save me. After all, the prince has already married, and I can't bother you anymore. Although I, Chu Yanluo, am unlucky, I still have to save my face."

"What? It wasn't your letter? Then who wrote it?"

"I don't know about this."

"Forget it. It doesn't matter who wrote it. I just said that the tone didn't seem like you, and it turns out it really wasn't you. Anyway, you must have had a hard time. I was right to come here!"

Xiao Qingyuan stepped forward and held her hand, then he frowned: "Why are your hands so cold? Why is the quilt so thin? Gu Qianhan is not willing to give you a thicker quilt?"

"I have plenty of quilts here."

Gu Qianhan's cold voice sounded behind Xiao Qingyuan: "Your Highness had better let Miss Chu go. Since you don't want to marry her, why are you here pretending to care about her? Are you trying to ruin her reputation completely?"

"Miss Chu, I can indulge you in anything. I can indulge you if you refuse to take medicine when you are sick, and I can indulge you if you refuse to cover yourself with a thick blanket. But if you flirt with another man in front of me, I will not tolerate it."

Chu Yanluo seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly pulled her hand out of Xiao Qingyuan's hand: "Prince, you... don't do this, Qianhan will be unhappy, go away!"

When had Xiao Qingyuan ever seen Chu Yanluo so timid? He immediately became furious and turned around and swung his fist at Gu Qianhan.

However, his fist did not hit Gu Qianhan's angular face as he expected.

Gu Qianhan caught his fist easily, then pushed him back indifferently.

Xiao Qingyuan staggered and fell onto the bed. He struggled to get up and glared at Gu Qianhan angrily: "Okay! If you are angry, come to me, don't scare Yan Luo! She is just a weak woman, you tricked her here, and she is so sick. If I don't come again, will you let her die of illness! Gu Qianhan, you are too cruel, too cold and heartless!"

Gu Qianhan glanced at Chu Yanluo who was pretending to be sick. He didn’t understand why he could see through Chu Yanluo’s tricks at a glance, but Xiao Qingyuan could never see through them.

Is this the magic of love?

He couldn't understand it. He had never loved any woman before, and he really couldn't imagine how much Xiao Qingyuan loved her, and why he still refused to give up Chu Yanluo.

Doesn't this woman already have the qualities of being scornful of the poor and loving the rich, and being fickle and fickle written all over her forehead?

Is Xiao Qingyuan blind? Can't he see this?

Besides, didn't Xiao Qingyuan think he loved her deeply? Why couldn't he even recognize her handwriting? She said it wasn't written by her, and he actually believed it.

It was obvious that the letter was written by Chu Yanluo. She deliberately called Xiao Qingyuan over, and then in order to maintain her noble and aloof personality, she lied and said that the letter was not written by her.

Nanny You, who was in charge of looking after her, said that Chu Yanluo had been writing letters non-stop and asking people to deliver them to Prince Ning's mansion since she moved in.

However, most of the letters were intercepted by Nanny You, and the last one slipped through the net.

Xiao Qingyuan's angry scolding was still ringing in his ears, but Gu Qianhan seemed to hear nothing. He suddenly asked, "Where is your prince's consort?"

Xiao Qingyuan's scolding stopped abruptly. He almost thought he had heard it wrongly: "What did you say?"

"I asked about your Crown Princess. Where is she?"

"Why are you asking about my Crown Prince's Consort? She is naturally in the palace!"

Xiao Qingyuan's face was very ugly: "Gu Qianhan, what are you going to do? It's not enough for you to rob Yanluo, you also want to rob Shen Wantang?"

Gu Qianhan still had that indifferent and cold look: "So what if they robbed it?"

"Do you really want to snatch Shen Wantang? Gu Qianhan, are you crazy?!"

Xiao Qingyuan was so angry that his face turned blue: "Didn't I just make you kneel in the palace for a night? Didn't I just make you get scolded by the emperor? This is not a big deal, is it necessary for you to retaliate against me like this?"

Gu Qianhan sneered: "You made me lose the opportunity to marry into the Liu family. My mother had already discussed the marriage with Madam Liu, but you and Chu Yanluo falsely accused me of humiliating her, causing my reputation to be ruined. Madam Liu even thought I was really a lecher and immediately rejected the marriage!"

"My marriage is ruined, so don't even think about having an easy life. I have a strong desire for revenge, so you can take revenge on me if you have the guts."

Xiao Qingyuan was speechless now. He had heard about the marriage proposal between the Gu and Liu families a long time ago. He had also heard Mo Ji mention that the Liu family later refused to discuss marriage with the Gu family.

But he originally thought that Gu Qianhan didn't like Liu Nanshi at all, so the marriage was over and Gu Qianhan wouldn't take it seriously.

But he didn't expect that Gu Qianhan would actually retaliate against him for this!

Jixiang who was standing aside couldn't help but look at his own young master several times. The young master's acting was really good and what he said sounded like the truth. If he didn't know that the young master had never thought of marrying into the Liu family, he would have almost believed it!
