Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

The more Princess Ning spoke, the more Xiao Qingyuan felt that he had gone too far. After all, the world today was extremely harsh on women. His decision to divorce his wife was indeed extremely hurtful to Shen Wantang.

He felt very guilty: "Mother, how do you think I should compensate Shen Wantang? Giving her gold and silver would be too tacky, but I don't know what else she likes. Mother, do you know what she likes?"

"Gold and silver are never vulgar. Even the Buddha likes a golden body made of pure gold, so the general public will naturally like it more. However, apart from gold and silver, I don't know what Tang'er likes. You can ask her yourself!"

"That's...okay!"

Princess Ning saw that he was willing to ask, so she waved her hand and sent him away: "Go!"

However, Xiao Qingyuan hesitated for a moment, then lifted his robe and knelt straight down.

Princess Ning was startled by his sudden action: "Yuan'er, what are you doing?"

"Mother, I owe you an apology. I made you angry a few days ago. I am an unfilial son."

The princess was very happy that her son suddenly became sensible. She was so moved that she almost shed tears: "Okay, it's enough that you know you are wrong. Why are you kneeling? Hurry up and get up!"

Nanny Quan knew that the princess loved her son, so she immediately stepped forward and helped Xiao Qingyuan up.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Xiao Qingyuan left.

After he left, the princess's eyebrows and eyes all relaxed: "Look, this is the first time in the past two years that we have been so warm together as mother and son. He usually makes a fuss and will quarrel with me after just a few words."

Nanny Quan smiled and said, "After experiencing setbacks, the prince has grown sensible and understands your painstaking efforts. He can sympathize with your difficulties."

The princess said, "I don't think it's entirely because of the setbacks. It's mostly Tang'er's credit. Ever since Tang'er, the Crown Prince's Consort, came into the family, Yuan'er has changed every day. I didn't expect him to change so quickly and so much."

Nanny Quan agreed very much: "It is said that a virtuous wife is worth ten thousand gold! For a wife like the Crown Prince's Consort, let alone ten thousand gold, we would not trade her for even a hundred thousand gold. The princess has a really good eye. She picked the best one for the Crown Prince right away. There is no other one in the whole capital!"

Princess Ning was also very satisfied with the daughter-in-law she had chosen: "Tang'er was wronged last night and was woken up in the middle of the night to serve that bastard. She must have worked so hard. Go to my private storehouse and pick out some expensive things and send them to her."

"Yes, princess."

"By the way, didn't the palace deliver a batch of new fabrics yesterday? Send them to the Crown Prince's Consort as well. If she likes them, she can wear them. If she doesn't like them, she can give them to the servants as rewards. I'm sure those maids and servants won't dare to look down on her!"

"Yes."

"Also, didn't you say that the Crown Princess likes reading? Tell her that she can read any book in the study in the palace from now on."

Princess Ning said this, took out a key and handed it to Nanny Quan.

All the maids were shocked. The study in the prince's mansion was an important place. Normally, no one else was allowed to enter except the prince, princess and the crown prince, because there were not only many rare ancient books but also many confidential letters.

The princess actually gave the key to the prince's wife like this!

What a trust, what a love!

Nanny Quan took the key and led people to Wutong Garden to deliver the things.

She deliberately made a big noise on her way there so that everyone in the palace would know that the princess was sending something to the crown prince's wife.

When Shen Wantang saw Nanny Quan coming in with a large group of maids, she immediately understood what the princess meant - her mother-in-law was deliberately supporting her!

She felt a little touched. It must be that her mother-in-law knew that Xiao Qingyuan wanted to divorce her last night, so she came to compensate her.

Each maid was holding something, including gold, silver, jewelry, and fashionable fabrics, and soon a small mountain of things was piled up in the room.

Shen Wantang showed a sincere smile on her face, and was obviously much happier than when she was facing Xiao Qingyuan: "Thank you, mother. Mother really loves me. I still have a lot of clothes that I haven't worn yet from the material you gave me last time. Now you have given me so much more. I won't lack clothes for the next three to five years!"

Nanny Quan smiled and said, "The princess specifically told me that if the princess likes these materials, she can make clothes to wear, and if she doesn't like them, she can give them to her subordinates. You just need to wear the most fashionable materials, and the princess will give you more in the future!"

It turned out that even the reward for the servants had been prepared for her. Shen Wantang once again felt the princess's thoughtfulness.

She thanked him repeatedly, and then stuffed a handful of gold leaves into Madam Quan's pocket: "Madam, you have worked hard. This is for buying tea for you."

Nanny Quan accepted the heavy gold leaves with a smile and nodded secretly in her heart. The Crown Prince's Consort was becoming more and more generous. She used small change to reward her servants before, but she changed to gold leaves so quickly. It can be seen that she has a lot more money on hand.

She took out the key given by the princess and placed it in Shen Wantang's hand quite solemnly: "Princess, this is the key to the study that the princess specially asked me to give you. The princess knows that you love reading, so she asked me to tell you that you can read any book in the study from now on."

Shen Wantang was startled, and the key in her palm suddenly became heavy: "Thank you, mother. This gift is so important!"

She was reborn, so she knew how important the study in the palace was. In her previous life, Shen Mingxuan had secretly entered the study and peeked at some confidential letters inside, passing confidential information back home, which directly angered Prince Ning who usually looked very Buddhist. Prince Ning used family rules and beat Shen Mingxuan so hard that she couldn't get out of bed for half a month.

Shen Wantang didn't expect that the princess would actually hand her the key to the study directly!

My mother-in-law trusts her too much!

Even after Nanny Quan took everyone away, Shen Wantang was still holding the key in a daze.

Nanny Chai and Qin Xin walked up to her and looked at the key in her palm with shining eyes. They had all been in the palace for many years and understood the importance of this key better than Shen Wantang.

Matron Chai said with emotion, "Princess, you have truly become one of the princess's own. Before, only the prince, princess, and prince could enter the study room of the palace. Now you are here. No one will dare to look down on you anymore. If people outside knew that you even took the key to the study room of the palace, they would not dare to gossip and laugh at you anymore."

Qin Xin seemed very excited: "That's great, Crown Princess, you can now come and go freely in the study room. This is a great honor! Moreover, I heard from Mo Ji that there are a lot of books in there, and they are of all kinds. You don't have to worry about not being able to find the right books to read anymore!"
