Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Mo Ji, who was standing aside serving, wanted to say that if Chu Yanluo knew about this, he might come back immediately. How could she allow another woman to take advantage of the prince?

But he couldn't say anything, because even if he did, the prince wouldn't believe it.

He brought the medicine forward and said, "Prince, it's freshly brewed. You should drink it quickly. Having a high fever like this all the time is not a good thing. You should take care of your body."

Xiao Qingyuan frowned as he looked at the bowl of black medicine: "This thing is too hard to drink. Pour it out. I'm fine. I'll be fine after a good sleep."

Mo Ji: "This is the medicine prescribed by the Crown Prince's Consort. The Crown Prince's Consort said that I have to watch you drink it."

Xiao Qingyuan glared at him: "Are you Shen Wantang's man now?"

Mo Ji: "Master, I am naturally yours, but you are the Crown Prince's Consort's, so I naturally have to follow you and listen to the Crown Prince's Consort's words!"

Xiao Qingyuan opened his mouth to refute, but he didn't know what was wrong. When he heard Mo Ji say that he was the Crown Prince's Concubine's man, he actually felt quite pleased.

He sat up, took the medicine bowl, tilted his head back and drank the medicine.

Just as he finished drinking, a slender white hand reached out to him and fed him a candied fruit. The bitter taste in his mouth was immediately suppressed by a sweet and fresh breath.

While eating the candied fruit, Xiao Qingyuan followed the hand and looked at Hua Yi.

As expected, Shen Wantang is reliable. Even the maid she gave him is so to his liking and so considerate. Huayi looks very weak and well-behaved. She looks like an honest and simple person, so you can rest assured in her service.

Huayi, who was gentle, well-behaved, honest and innocent, smiled softly and said, "Your Highness, please don't go out for the next two days. They say it's going to rain and the weather will get colder. Don't make yourself sick. Wait until you're fully recovered before going out!"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at the sunny sky outside and asked curiously, "Who said it's going to rain? Isn't it a nice day?"

"The people below heard from Wutong Garden that the Crown Prince's Consort has been studying the stars recently. She calculated the weather conditions based on the stars."

Xiao Qingyuan couldn't believe it: "What? She also started studying astrology?"

"Yes!"

"My father is obsessed with this. He has been studying it for more than ten years, but he still hasn't figured it out. Shen Wantang has only been studying it for a few days, and she can already read the stars?"

The painting perfectly expresses confusion, as if an ignorant child looked at Xiao Qingyuan with trust: "Prince, is astrology difficult to learn? How could the prince be so powerful that he can't study astrology thoroughly?"

Xiao Qingyuan blurted out: "He is not that great, he is just a half-baked one!"

After saying that, he felt something was wrong and said, "The knowledge in the field of astrology is extensive and ever-changing. How can it be studied by humans? My father can't study it thoroughly, let alone Shen Wantang. Tomorrow's weather must be very good, I must go out."

"Mo Ji, bring me some paper and pen. I need to write a letter to Yan Luo, telling her that I'm sick today and that I'll definitely pick her up and take her back to Prince Ning's Mansion tomorrow!"

Mo Ji left immediately.

Huayi lowered her head with a faint smile at the corner of her lips.

She still believed in the judgment of the Crown Prince's wife more. Tomorrow, the Crown Prince might not be able to leave the house, and he would most likely break his promise to Chu Yanluo.

Sure enough, early the next morning, dark clouds covered the sky, strong winds blew, heavy rain poured down, and the temperature dropped sharply, making people shiver with cold.

Xiao Qingyuan tried to go out, but before he even stepped out of his yard, his whole body was already soaked.

Holding an umbrella is completely useless. The wind is blowing so hard that it's not even raining. It's like water pouring down on people.

Xiao Qingyuan was forced to retreat back into the house. When he took off his boots, a pool of water poured out.

Huayi hurriedly took a thick towel and held his feet to wipe them, then helped him change into dry clothes, and made him some ginger tea to drink.

Xiao Qingyuan drank ginger tea while looking at the rain outside gloomily: "This damn weather, it was fine yesterday, but it turned out like this today!"

He felt extremely upset. If he had known earlier, he would have believed Shen Wantang.

Now look what happened. He had told Chu Yanluo that he would definitely pick her up and bring her to the palace, but he couldn't go at all.

He clenched his fists and said, "Today's situation is special. It's raining so hard. I'm sure Yanluo will understand my breach of trust. Let's go tomorrow. I will definitely pick her up tomorrow!"

However, it rained heavily for three days in a row, and the strong wind almost blew off the roof. Not to mention going out, even staying at home was terrifying.

Xiao Qingyuan was almost in despair: "How could this happen? When will this heavy rain stop? Huayi, go to Wutong Garden and ask Shen Wantang if the rain will stop tomorrow?"

He has gone from not trusting Shen Wantang to absolutely trusting her, and even regards her as a life-saving straw.

Huayi put on a thick straw raincoat and went to Wutong Garden in the midst of a violent storm.

When she returned to Xingheyuan, her shoes and skirt were completely wet, and every time she walked in the house, she left a big water mark.

She took off her straw raincoat and replied, "Sir, I have asked, but the wife said she doesn't know either."

Xiao Qingyuan stood up anxiously: "How could she not know? She is so good at reading the stars. If she says it will rain, it will rain. If she says it will get cold, it will get cold. Now she says she doesn't know?"

"Prince, the sky has been covered with dark clouds these days, and the Crown Princess can't see the stars. She has many talents but can't use them for the time being!"

Xiao Qingyuan sat back dejectedly: "That's right, I was so anxious that I lost my mind."

"Sir, I have brought you some good news from the princess!"

Xiao Qingyuan asked listlessly: "Any more good news?"

"Yes!"

Hua Yi's eyes were all smiling: "The Crown Prince's Consort helped Miss Mu find her relatives. Miss Mu's uncle braved the storm and came to our palace to take Miss Mu home!"

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned: "What? Mu Ge still has relatives alive? Didn't she say that she depended on her parents for everything, and after her parents died, she had no relatives anymore?"

"Yes, Prince. Miss Mu's uncle is with the princess right now. He is grateful to our palace for taking Miss Mu in, and he is kowtowing to her. He will come to you to kowtow later."

Xiao Qingyuan stood up again, his face becoming a little ugly: "Mu Ge has an uncle, but he lied to me that she is alone and helpless?! Go, call Mu Ge over to me immediately!"

Huayi quickly put on her raincoat again and went to call Muge.

At this moment, in Mu Ge's yard, Ma Pozi was soaking wet and said nervously, "Girl, it seems that the prince's wife really can't tolerate you anymore. I heard that she sent someone to find your relatives to take you home! You should think of a way quickly. It's best to ask the prince to take you as a concubine, otherwise there will be no chance in the future!"
