Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 236 He is towards Shen Wantang

As soon as Shen Wantang finished speaking, Madam Chai stepped forward and said, "Sir, I can testify that everything the princess said is true."

"On the night of your wedding to the Crown Princess, Nanny Jin did scold her, and she wanted her to cry and make a scene with you. When she refused to listen to her, she took advantage of her age and put on airs."

"The prince also accompanied the princess back to her parents' home. He should know that the princess's mother, Qi, is very difficult to get along with. Nanny Jin was originally Qi's personal nanny. She was sent here as the princess's dowry nanny. It was originally Qi's ill intentions."

"Your Highness, please understand. The relationship between the Crown Prince's Consort and Nanny Jin has always been bad, but Aunt Chu is trying to confuse right and wrong, insisting that the Crown Prince's Consort and Nanny Jin have a special relationship. It's obvious that she wants to throw dirty water on the Crown Prince's Consort."

"I have been serving the Crown Princess since the first day she got married. I have only met Nanny Jin once. Later, because she made a mistake, she was sent to work in a farm outside the city by the Crown Princess. Until now, she has not returned."

"I don't know where Aunt Chu met Nanny Jin, and how she knew that Nanny Jin's son was the murderer?"

Xiao Qingyuan's brows were almost twisted together. He used to think that Chu Yanluo was special no matter how he looked at her, but now he thought that Chu Yanluo was weird no matter how he looked at her.

Now it’s not even about the Xin family case, but there’s something weird about Chu Yanluo that makes him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yanluo, shouldn't you explain? What is going on?"

Chu Yanluo's expression was tense: "Prince, you are not investigating me now, but Nanny Jin and her son Xiang Meng! I didn't kill the people of the Xin family, don't let Shen Wantang lead you by the nose, she is clearly trying to divert attention!"

"What is she trying to divert attention from? Can Nanny Jin really get away? If the murderer is really her son, her whole family will be arrested and taken to the Ministry of Justice for questioning."

Xiao Qingyuan didn't take the nanny seriously. Anyway, the person was in Shen Wantang's hands, so she couldn't just let him run away secretly.

If she was really stupid enough to let Nanny Jin run away, she would be implicated instead.

Xiao Qingyuan felt that Shen Wantang was a smart person and she would never tarnish her own reputation for a nanny.

"Yanluo, how many times do you want me to ask you? How do you know that Nanny Jin's son is the murderer?"

Xiao Qingyuan's tone was already filled with impatience: "You are not playing tricks on me again, are you? You want to take this opportunity to throw dirty water on Shen Wantang? Do you think I will drive her away? This is impossible, don't even think about it, Shen Wantang will always be my Crown Prince's Consort, no one can replace her."

Chu Yanluo's face turned pale little by little. What was he talking about? ! He actually said that no one could replace Shen Wantang!

This is not right! This is not true!

In the previous life, Xiao Qingyuan said this to Shen Mingxuan!

At that time, Shen Mingxuan always wanted to drive her away, but Xiao Qingyuan always protected her. He also told Shen Mingxuan: "Yan Luo is the prince's consort in my heart, and no one can replace her."

Why has it become like this now?

Chaos! It's all chaos! Why is Xiao Qingyuan protecting Shen Wantang?

No, she must not lose to Shen Wantang!

Chu Yanluo said with a pale face: "Since the prince insists on knowing, then I will tell him my biggest secret. I can predict the future!"

However, Xiao Qingyuan did not react at all. He even thought Chu Yanluo was a little crazy: "Haven't you already told Qingxi that you can predict the future? What kind of secret is this? It's fine if you just bluff Qingxi, but now you're trying to bluff me too?"

Chu Yanluo was angry and anxious: "I can really predict the future! Otherwise, how would I know that Xiang Meng was the murderer who killed the thirteen members of the Xin family when I haven't even met Nanny Jin and her son!"

"I was the one who asked you this question, why are you asking me again now?"

The more Xiao Qingyuan thought about it, the angrier he became. He originally thought that he could do Huo Yunzhou a big favor and make Huo Yunzhou owe him some favors, so that he could persuade Huo Yunzhou to give up his plan of taking a concubine and live a good life with his sister.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yanluo's remarks were all groundless speculations, without any substantial evidence at all!

"Prince, you must believe me! How could I lie about something like this? Xiang Meng is really the murderer. You should immediately notify the Ministry of Justice and have them arrest Xiang Meng and put him in jail, lest he gets wind of the situation and runs away!"

"You can predict the future, right? Then predict whether Xiang Meng has escaped or not?"

Chu Yanluo was stunned and couldn't speak for a long time.

Xiao Qingyuan looked at her, feeling extremely disappointed: "Why, you can't predict this? Or are you just talking nonsense to deceive me?"

"I didn't lie to you! I could predict it! Xiang Meng didn't run away, he was caught!"

"Since he can't get away, why are you so anxious to ask me to notify the Ministry of Justice? Chu Yanluo, your words are inconsistent. How can I trust you?"

"This……"

Chu Yanluo's mind raced, and he said quickly, "The future will change, it's not fixed. If someone tips off Xiang Meng, he could possibly escape! If Shen Wantang gives him the news and lets him run away, it will be very difficult for the Ministry of Justice to catch him again!"

Xiao Qingyuan turned to look at Shen Wantang: "If Xiang Meng is the murderer, will you tip him off?"

Shen Wantang said calmly, "No. If he is the murderer, I just hope he will be brought to justice as soon as possible. At this time, whoever tipped him off is his accomplice. I have a good life and will not do such a stupid thing to fall into a trap and dig my own grave."

"I just can't understand who would be so foolish as to think I would tip off the murderer."

Chu Yanluo's face turned pale and blue: "Shen Wantang, what do you mean? Why are you scolding me? I am just assuming. After all, this possibility is not impossible!"

Although Xiao Qingyuan didn't believe that Shen Wantang would tip off the murderer, he still felt mocked when he heard her last sentence.

The way she curses people now is really advanced. Without using a single dirty word, she can embarrass people.

But the more she was like this, the more he felt she was special.

He didn't like those flashy colors before, but now looking at the crabapple red brocade skirt that Shen Wantang was wearing and the pair of emerald green jade earrings hanging on her ears, he felt they were very dazzling and eye-catching.

He couldn't help but say to Shen Wantang: "I know you are not that kind of person, I believe you."

Shen Wantang nodded: "Since the prince believes me, then take Aunt Chu away. Nanny Jin will not run away, and neither will Xiang Meng. Although Xiang Meng is not in my hands, he is still working for the Shen family. If there is evidence that he is the murderer, I will let the Shen family tie him up and send him to the Ministry of Justice."
