Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

When Chu Yanluo heard this, she seemed to be frightened by his murderous look. She quickly pushed Xiao Qingyuan out: "Prince, please leave quickly and don't come here again!"

However, Xiao Qingyuan grabbed her wrist and put her behind him: "Gu Qianhan, if you dare to hurt Yan Luo, then you have to step over my dead body first! As long as I, Xiao Qingyuan, live, I will protect Yan Luo. If she dies, I will never live alone!"

Chu Yanluo was standing behind him, and was really moved when she heard his passionate words.

After leaving Prince Ning's Mansion, she realized that the person who treated her the best in the world was Xiao Qingyuan. Other men either just wanted to play with her or just wanted to use her. None of them was sincere to her.

She hugged Xiao Qingyuan's waist from behind and cried softly.

Xiao Qingyuan quickly turned back to coax her: "Yanluo, don't be afraid, I'm here, no one can hurt you. By the way, I brought you bird's nest soup and gold. Before, Gu Qianhan gave you 1,000 taels of gold, and you seemed very happy. This time I also brought you 1,000 taels of gold. Take a look, do you like it?"

Chu Yanluo was stunned, and then she burst into tears in his arms. He finally understood and knew to give her gold. Before, he had only given her broken wood and stones!

Who would like wooden hairpins? Of course, she still likes gold hairpins! When she was in Prince Ning's mansion, every time she saw the whole set of head ornaments on Shen Wantang's head, she was extremely jealous. They were made of gold and gems, all sparkling and noble.

Now, she also has a golden hairpin!

Xiao Qingyuan had no idea what Chu Yanluo was thinking, so he naturally started to coax her again.

Gu Qianhan, who was standing aside, watched coldly, feeling a little annoyed.

In his previous life, Xiao Qingyuan died for Chu Yanluo. Judging from the situation, if he really killed Chu Yanluo, Xiao Qingyuan would still die for her.

Continuing to force Chu Yanluo to stay would only have a counterproductive effect. Xiao Qingyuan was the type of person who would want to do something the more others tried to stop him.

People can't stay any longer, otherwise Xiao Qingyuan will live here and not go home.

Gu Qianhan felt very sorry for Shen Wantang as he couldn't even help with such a small favor.

His mood was worse than the weather outside: "Xiao Qingyuan!"

Xiao Qingyuan protected Chu Yanluo vigilantly: "What are you going to do?"

"You still owe me 10,000 taels of silver. You should pay it back!"

"This... I don't have money now. I'll pay you back when I have it later."

"You have no silver, but don't you have gold?"

Gu Qianhan opened the box and took a look. After confirming that it was indeed gold, he called out to his servant, "Jixiang, take this away!"

Xiao Qingyuan was immediately furious: "Gu Qianhan! Are you taking advantage of someone's misfortune? Who owes 10,000 taels of silver and pays it back with 1,000 taels of gold? I will definitely return your silver, but you can't take this box of gold. It's for Yan Luo!"

Gu Qianhan sneered: "Miss Chu has a noble character and a proud temperament. She is not a vulgar person who loves money. How could she accept one thousand taels of gold from you for no reason? You are looking down on her by giving her such a thing!"

"Or do you want to use this 1,000 taels of gold to buy Miss Chu back to be your concubine? If so, then the gold should naturally belong to Miss Chu. After all, it is the money from selling her body, and it can only be sold once in a lifetime. It is not easy for me to snatch it from her."

Xiao Qingyuan's face changed. He was afraid that Chu Yanluo would be angry, so he hurriedly said, "Yanluo, don't listen to his nonsense. I definitely didn't mean that!"

Chu Yanluo now felt that it didn’t matter what Xiao Qingyuan meant. What mattered was that the one thousand taels of gold was about to be snatched away by Gu Qianhan!

However, she was forced to stay there by Gu Qianhan. She couldn't even ask for the gold. If she did, it would be tantamount to denying her noble character and admitting that she was a vulgar person who loved money.

She gritted her teeth and thought, forget it, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child, personality is important, her noble image cannot collapse, as long as she can tie Xiao Qingyuan's heart, let alone a thousand taels of gold, even ten thousand taels of gold will be within her reach in the future!

"Prince, I don't want your gold, you can take it away!"

Xiao Qingyuan was stunned: "Yanluo, you really don't want it? Last time Gu Qianhan gave it to you, you took it all."

"Last time, it was Master Gu who bought my snacks. My skills were recognized, so I accepted his gold. Afterwards, didn't I return the gold to him? What I want is not gold, but recognition and trust."

Chu Yanluo raised her head high, revealing a proud look: "Gold and silver are vulgar things, they are worthless to me! As long as the prince recognizes me and trusts me, that's enough. Ten thousand taels of gold cannot match the prince's love for me. It is enough for Yanluo to win the prince's heart in this life."

Xiao Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He felt better now. "I told you, Yanluo, you can't possibly like those vulgar things like gold and silver. You are different from those worldly women. You are a fairy who is unique in heaven and on earth!"

Gu Qianhan was too lazy to watch the scenes where they expressed their innermost feelings to each other. He had seen enough in his previous life, and he didn't expect that he would have to see it again after living again.

He asked Jixiang to take the gold and left.

That night, Xiao Qingyuan brought Chu Yanluo back to Prince Ning's Mansion.

The Ning Prince's Mansion was in an uproar immediately, and everyone found it unbelievable!

"No way, didn't Chu Yanluo run away with Master Gu? I remember clearly that she wanted to follow Master Gu! How could she come back again? Doesn't Master Gu want her anymore?"

"She is so shameless, but the prince still likes her? Doesn't the prince feel disgusted?"

"Tsk, what's the big deal? Chu Yanluo was pregnant with a bastard before, and the prince loved her to death, didn't he? Let's just thank God that she didn't get pregnant with Master Gu's child this time!"

"This shouldn't be the case. Didn't the Crown Prince just consummate his marriage with the Crown Princess? Aren't they very loving? Why would he turn around and bring Chu Yanluo back? Isn't this a slap in the face of the Crown Princess?"

"You are still too young. Men like to have three wives and four concubines. How can one wife be enough? There must be concubines. And concubines are often more favored. After all, they are shameless enough!"

"The Crown Prince's Consort was able to find Mu Ge's uncle and ask him to take her away. Will she use the same method to drive Chu Yanluo away?"

"This is terrible. Chu Yanluo is too shameless. The Chu family has long since disowned her. Moreover, the prince treats her completely differently from Mu Ge. The same method will not work on Chu Yanluo!"

"Alas, the mansion has finally been quiet for two days, and now things are starting to get noisy again. Chu Yanluo is much more noisy than Mu Ge!"
