Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Princess Ning's face turned even redder, but her complexion suddenly improved.

She pushed Prince Ning again: "The children are still here, put me down quickly."

Seeing that she was embarrassed, Prince Ning held her for a while and finally put her back on the pillow.

After Princess Ning lay down, she saw her son kneeling on the ground. She only saw her daughter-in-law just now and thought her son had run away long ago. She didn't expect that he was actually at home.

She was angry and ignored her son. She looked at Shen Wantang and said, "Tang'er, you saved me again this time, right? Oh, it's really hard for you. You have to be a daughter-in-law, a housekeeper, and a doctor. It's really not easy."

Shen Wantang smiled at her: "Mother, I am not tired. I feel very lucky to be your and father's daughter-in-law."

This was much easier than her previous life. Although her husband in this life was very troublesome, her parents-in-law were very easy to talk to and were on her side, so no matter how Xiao Qingyuan troubled her, she lived a stable life.

When a girl gets married, as long as there is one reliable person in the family, she can gain a firm foothold.

Either her mother-in-law or her husband is reliable, Shen Wantang can live a good life. If neither of them is reliable, she will have to resort to some means and move to another place to live.

Princess Ning still felt that she owed her daughter-in-law. She looked at Prince Ning and said, "My Lord, Tang'er saved me again. Why don't you reward her with something? I remember that there are many treasures in your storehouse!"

Prince Ning waved his hand and said, "Reward! Whatever the princess says, I'll give you!"

Princess Ning finally showed a hint of smile on her face: "Then give the kingfisher headpiece given by the palace to Tang'er. The color is bright and suitable for her."

Prince Ning was shocked, because that set of kingfisher feather headdress was a gift from the emperor when they got married. The empress wanted it at that time, but the emperor did not give it to her and directly gave it to his princess consort.

After the marriage, the princess was reluctant to wear it because it was too valuable, so she put it in his storeroom and asked him to keep it well for her.

Unexpectedly, the princess was willing to give her to Shen Wantang!

Prince Ning felt a little reluctant, but the headgear belonged to his wife, so he would give it to whoever his wife wanted.

He immediately gave the warehouse key to Yan Cheng and asked him to go and get it.

Shen Wantang could actually see that Prince Ning was reluctant to give it away. She was very curious about what kind of headgear could make such a great prince be reluctant to give it away.

However, when Yan Cheng came in with a tray, Shen Wantang was shocked.

A set of head ornaments was placed on the tray. In addition to the rare kingfisher feathers, they were also inlaid with countless rubies and sapphires. The two rubies and sapphires on the main crown were actually a circle larger than pigeon eggs!

The light from outside the window came in and shone on the gems, making them all emit a dazzling light.

Shen Wantang said quickly: "Mother, this is too valuable. You should ask father to put it back into the warehouse!" She was afraid of losing it. She would be heartbroken if she lost a gem.

Princess Ning waved at her: "Tang'er, come here."

Shen Wantang walked over and held her hand: "Mother."

"This headdress was given by the Emperor when the prince and I got married. It took three years to make the whole set of headdress, and the gems on it almost used up all the red and blue gems stored in the Emperor's private vault. It was not originally given to me, but the Empress Dowager likes me and thinks that the Emperor already has the country, so no matter how precious a headdress is, it is not as precious as the country, so she insisted that the Emperor give it to me."

Princess Ning patted her hands gently and said, "Now, I don't have any use for it. It will just gather dust if I leave it there. I might as well give it to you. Wear it while you're still young and dress up more."

Shen Wantang understood now. No wonder King Ning was reluctant to give it to her. It turned out that it was not only because it was expensive, but more importantly, this set of headgear had special meaning.

But the more this happened, the more she couldn't accept it.

"Mother, you are still young, you can wear it. I am afraid I cannot hold up such an expensive headdress!"

Princess Ning would not allow her to refuse: "Don't worry, my daughter-in-law is so elegant and beautiful, there is no head ornament that cannot match her. No matter how precious the gems are, they are not as precious as you. Just keep them."

After she finished speaking, she waved to Yan Cheng and said, "Go, take a few people and send them to the courtyard of the deceased prince's wife."

Yan Cheng responded respectfully and went out with his men.

Shen Wantang understood that the princess asked Yan Cheng to bring people with her in order to make it more impressive. This would further elevate her status as the prince's consort and give her face.

Shen Wantang let go of the princess's hand and knelt down respectfully in front of her mother-in-law: "Thank you, mother!"

Princess Ning looked at herself who was kneeling, and then at her kneeling son. The more she looked at her son, the more she disliked him. She even felt that her son's kneeling posture was not as sincere as her daughter-in-law's.

"Mammy, help the Crown Princess up quickly, the ground is cold!"

Nanny Quan responded and hurriedly helped Shen Wantang up.

Xiao Qingyuan, who had no one to support him, moved his lips and his shoulders slumped.

Why did mother only ask Nanny Quan to help Shen Wantang and not him? Is it possible that Shen Wantang is the only one who is cold and he is not cold?

His knees were so painful from kneeling that he couldn't help but move.

As a result, Princess Ning grabbed the pillow and threw it at him.

Xiao Qingyuan was a little dazed by the blow: "Mother? What are you doing..."

"Kneel down right there! You are not allowed to get up without my permission!"

Xiao Qingyuan lowered his head: "Yes."

He picked up the pillow and handed it back: "If you're not satisfied, just hit me a few more times."

Princess Ning ignored him and didn't even take his pillow, just let him hold it there.

If Princess Ning didn't answer, no one else would dare to.

Xiao Qingyuan's legs were numb from kneeling, and his arms were almost broken from being raised.

Princess Ning saw that he seemed to tremble, and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment. Her son was still sick and his injuries had not fully healed...

Shen Wantang did not miss the hesitation on her face and knew that her mother-in-law was heartbroken again.

She took a step forward, took the pillow that Xiao Qingyuan was holding, and put it back on her mother-in-law: "Mother, you can't be angry anymore, you need to cultivate your character. When you were still asleep, the prince was kneeling here, and he has been kneeling for a long time. I think he knows he is wrong. Right, prince?"

Xiao Qingyuan was extremely grateful to her. At this time, no one in the palace dared to speak for him except Shen Wantang.

More importantly, only Shen Wantang's words are effective. Her mother will ignore other people's words.

He hurriedly said: "Mother, I know I was wrong!"

Princess Ning had no idea how to wake her son up, and Shen Wantang's words gave her a perfect way out.

She felt that this daughter-in-law was really a good match for her.

"Since Tang'er has spoken for you, then get up! Only Tang'er cares about you. Apart from her, who else cares about your life or death? When you were sick, she treated you. When you knelt, she pleaded for you. Look at yourself again, what have you done for her? You actually want to bypass her and take a concubine on your own initiative!"
