Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 192 How do you know she won’t choose me?

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Qianning came out of the abbot's meditation room with red eyes.

This time, she didn't shake the lottery box again.

Her voice was extremely difficult: "Second brother, Atang, let's go, let's go back."

Shen Wantang knew that she was upset, so he walked up to her, patted her arm soothingly, and walked out with her.

But they had not walked far when they ran into Xiao Qingyuan, who was accompanied by Mo Ji and Hua Yi.

When Xiao Qingyuan saw Shen Wantang, he was surprised: "Why are you here too?"

Shen Wantang didn't expect to see him in Fazhen Temple. She thought that he had become a monk in Fazhen Temple and would never come again!

It seems that he did not take his becoming a monk seriously and had an extremely broad mind.

Shen Wantang brought Du Juan forward and said calmly, "I'm here to burn incense and pray for blessings. Why is the prince here too? Are you here to pray for blessings as well?"

"Oh, I... just came to take a look and, by the way, ask the abbot for a peace amulet for Huayi."

As Xiao Qingyuan spoke, his eyes fell on Gu Qianhan, and his tone became very impolite: "Gu Qianhan, don't you always disbelieve in gods and Buddhas? What are you doing in Fazhen Temple? Why are you with Shen Wantang? You don't want to..."

Gu Qianhan interrupted him with a cold tone: "Xiao Qingyuan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I came here with my sister to burn incense, and it has nothing to do with your Crown Prince's Consort. Isn't it enough that you have ruined my reputation? Now you not only want to continue to ruin my reputation, but also want to ruin the reputation of your Crown Prince's Consort? I didn't know that you like to sacrifice your relatives for the sake of justice."

Xiao Qingyuan then realized that what he had just said was indeed inappropriate. He stepped forward with a sullen face and lowered his voice, "You don't have to speak so high-soundingly. I don't know others, but I know you very well! There is no way you would have nothing better to do than accompany your sister to the Fazhen Temple to burn incense!"

"You obviously approached my Crown Prince's Consort just to get revenge on me! It wasn't enough that you snatched Yan Luo away before, now you want to snatch Shen Wantang away too. You are so shameless!"

"But I can tell you that it's useless for you to get close to her. She's doing well as the Crown Prince's Consort in Prince Ning's Mansion. My father and mother treat her very well. Unless she's crazy, no matter what tricks you play, she won't go with you!"

A cold light flashed in Gu Qianhan's eyes. Xiao Qingyuan only said that his father and mother treated Shen Wantang well, which showed that he himself knew that he, as a husband, did not treat Shen Wantang very well!

He glanced at the painting behind Xiao Qingyuan and sneered.

He lowered his voice so that only he and Xiao Qingyuan could hear it clearly: "I want to steal another woman from you, but it's not Shen Wantang. After all, you don't like her, so it's useless for me to steal her. I see that you seem to like this maid very much. You take her with you wherever you go in recent days. If I steal her, it should make you uncomfortable for a long time, right?"

"you dare!"

Xiao Qingyuan was furious: "Who do you think you are? You can snatch my people away just like that? You didn't even ask Huayuan if she wanted to go with you! She is not Yanluo, she will never choose you!"

Gu Qianhan's tone was full of sarcasm: "How do you know she won't choose me? Before Chu Yanluo left with me, didn't you always firmly believe that Chu Yanluo would never leave you? She's just a maid, isn't it easy to make her go with me? Do you want to make a bet with me?"

Xiao Qingyuan opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

He turned around to look at Huayi, who was lowering her head and looking submissive. At that moment, he no longer had confidence that Huayi could follow him unwaveringly.

The passion that had been building up for Hua Yi over the past few days quickly cooled down, and Xiao Qingyuan realized that he seemed to trust women too much.

Shen Wantang, who was standing by, couldn't hear what the two people said, but she saw that it only took Gu Qianhan a moment to make Xiao Qingyuan start to look at the painting with suspicion, and she couldn't help but shake her head slightly.

Xiao Qingyuan has been obsessed with Hua Yi in recent days, and he even neglected Chu Yanluo. He didn't expect that Gu Qianhan could bring him back to his senses so quickly.

He is indeed a genius, he is really capable.

Seeing that the two of them were on edge, Gu Qianning didn't even care about the discomfort of shaking four bad lots just now, and hurried forward and said, "Prince, Atang and I agreed to come here to burn incense and pray for blessings today. My second brother just worried that it would be unsafe to accommodate so many refugees here, so he accompanied me on this trip. It has nothing to do with anything else."

"I know that you and my second brother have some disputes and misunderstandings, but you grew up together, so you still have some brotherly love. You must not become estranged because of some unfounded things."

Xiao Qingyuan turned his head to look at her, knowing what she was talking about, most likely referring to Gu Qianhan's bullying of Chu Yanluo.

He has always had a good impression of Gu Qianning and knows that she is a true lady from a noble family.

His voice softened: "Miss Gu, it's not that I want to be estranged from your second brother, but some of his actions were too extreme. I don't want to bother with him about Yan Luo anymore, but he actually still wants to snatch her away..."

He glanced at Hua Yi and said, "He also wants to snatch my maid. Tell me, is he crazy? He is afraid that I will never have a good life!"

Gu Qianning was stunned, huh?

It seems that Prince Xiao only guessed half right. Her second brother was indeed crazy. However, his second brother did not want to steal his maid. He obviously wanted to steal his prince's wife!

For the sake of her second brother's reputation, Gu Qianning explained very seriously: "This... the prince may have made a mistake. We still have quite a few maids in our house. Although there are no maids to serve in my second brother's room, as long as he wants, my mother can arrange one for him at any time. He really doesn't need the prince's maids."

Xiao Qingyuan sneered: "I think you still don't understand your good second brother. He is capable of doing anything bad. In order to avenge me for ruining his marriage, he wants to snatch my person without any reason!"

Gu Qianning was even more surprised. She looked at her second brother. So this is what he said to Xiao Qingyuan?

But, my second brother was not willing to marry into the Liu family!

Although her mother liked Liu Nanshi, the daughter of Lord Liu, her second brother didn't like her. Every time Liu Nanshi came home, her second brother would not even see her.

The marriage fell through, and everyone in the family felt it was a pity, except my second brother, who was very satisfied.

Xiao Qingyuan grew up with his second brother, aren't they good brothers? He should know that his second brother doesn't like Liu Nanshi, otherwise his second brother would have married Liu Nanshi long ago when he was twenty, and why would he wait until today?

Gu Qianning was in a daze when she suddenly heard Xiao Qingyuan say, "Shen Wantang, come here and stand next to me. Stay away from those who have bad intentions. After I go and ask for the amulet for Huayi, we will go back home together."
