Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 585 How can I marry her son?

Shen Wantang sighed, "Yes, she is in the Shen family. She has hidden her identity and works as a maid for Shen Mingxuan. In just a few days, she has gained Shen Mingxuan's trust."

Gu Qianning was a little worried: "Will the two of them team up to harm you? In your last life, Chu Yanluo wanted to kill you, and now we live under the same roof, you must be careful!"

"Don't worry, I'm on guard against them! Chu Yanluo was able to use such despicable means on Liu Nanshi, so her means against me will only be even more despicable. My suspicion of Chu Yanluo is not groundless."

"Did you find her weakness?"

"My maid said that on the day Liu Nanshi disappeared, Chu Yanluo stayed out for most of the day under the pretext of buying medicine for Shen Mingxuan and only returned after dark."

Gu Qianning thought for a moment and also felt something was wrong: "Buying medicine? It takes so long to buy medicine?"

"After Chu Yanluo came back, she told Shen Mingxuan that the herbs she needed were extremely rare and difficult to buy, and she had to go to more than a dozen pharmacies to buy them all. But my maid went to inquire the next day and found out that she had only visited one pharmacy, and the herbs she bought were not rare. Chu Yanluo lied."

Gu Qianning felt uneasy: "Such a coincidence, and she is trying to hide it so much, there must be something wrong! Atang, your guess is probably right! So what should we do? Are you going to drive her away?"

Shen Wantang shook her head. "She's still somewhat useful for now, so let's keep her for now! Besides, if we let her out, it'll be even harder to track her whereabouts. It's better for her to stay in the mansion. I can find out what she does in time."

Seeing that she had something in mind, Gu Qianning said nothing more.

She stayed at the Shen family for half a day, had lunch with Shen Wantang, and then went home.

Before leaving, she handed Shen Wantang a letter.

There was no signature on the letter, and Gu Qianning did not explain much. She just smiled at her teasingly and left.

How could Shen Wantang not know who sent this letter to her?

She stuffed the letter into her sleeve pocket, sent Gu Qianning away, returned to the inner room, and opened the letter with some curiosity.

She really wanted to know what Gu Qianhan would say to her in the letter.

As a result, after opening the letter, I found only two words written inside: I miss you.

Shen Wantang looked at the handwriting that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar. Her cheeks felt slightly hot and a smile appeared at the corner of her lips involuntarily.

She read it for a while, then put the letter away and tucked it into her medical book.

The night passed.

On the second day, Shen Wantang packed up and went to Prince Ning's Mansion with Shen Mingxuan and Qi.

In the past, when Shen Mingxuan went out, the maid who followed her was always Shaoyao, but now, the ones who followed her were Chu Yanluo and Huayi.

This time, Shen Wantang brought Qin Xin with him, while Du Juan and the others stayed at home.

After entering Prince Ning's Mansion, I was halfway there when I met Xiao Qingyuan who was about to go out.

When he saw Shen Wantang and his group, his brows furrowed. "Why are you here again? Didn't I tell you that I won't marry your Shen family's daughter?"

When meeting a man from another world, Shen Wantang certainly couldn't rush to the front. She stood behind Qi, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing.

Qi also wished she would stand behind him. She pushed her daughter forward and said, "Xuan'er, come quickly and pay your respects to the prince."

Shen Mingxuan lowered her eyebrows and looked submissive, her voice so soft that it seemed to squeeze out water: "Mingxuan greets the prince."

Xiao Qingyuan looked at her coldly: "You are putting on airs! Get out! Get out of our palace! You Shen family members are not allowed to set foot in Prince Ning's palace from now on!"

Shen Mingxuan's face turned pale. "Prince, we didn't shamelessly come to the palace. It was the princess who invited us to be her guests."

Qi also hurriedly said, "If the prince doesn't know, why not ask the princess? It's not a good idea to kick the princess's guests out without permission, right?"

Xiao Qingyuan's eyes flashed with anger: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

"No, no, I'm afraid that the princess won't be able to see us later and will blame the prince. How about this, we go say hello to the princess first and leave quickly."

"I told you to get out, are you deaf?"

"Qingyuan!"

Princess Ning's voice suddenly rang out: "Don't be rude! Is that what I taught you every day? Why don't you apologize to Madam Shen right away?"

Xiao Qingyuan snorted coldly: "She is worthy?!"

Princess Ning choked: "You!!"

When Qi saw Princess Ning, she felt like she had seen a savior. She hurriedly pulled Shen Mingxuan to her and said, "Greetings, Princess. The prince was just joking with us. It's nothing serious, nothing serious!"

As she spoke, she pushed Shen Mingxuan forward again.

Shen Mingxuan still looked respectful and gentle: "Mingxuan greets the princess, may the princess live long and happily."

Of course, Shen Wantang could not lose her manners. She walked past Xiao Qingyuan, came in front of Princess Ning, and also saluted Princess Ning.

Princess Ning looked at Shen Mingxuan, then at Shen Wantang, and finally her gaze fell on Shen Wantang.

She still found Shen Wantang pleasing to the eye, and his manners were much better than Shen Mingxuan's.

The most important thing is that she has sent people to investigate, and Shen Wantang did not try to have it both ways at the same time as Qi said, holding on to both the Ning Wang Mansion and the Guogong Mansion.

Right now, it is the Duke's Mansion that has taken a fancy to Shen Wantang and has been sending people to the Shen family time and again to give her gifts. If she doesn't hurry up and snatch her away, Shen Wantang will probably be snatched away by Madam Gu.

When Xiao Qingyuan saw Princess Ning staring at Shen Wantang, he knew that she was just like in her previous life, and still had her eyes on Shen Wantang and wanted her to be her daughter-in-law.

He immediately said, "Mother, I've already told you, I don't want anyone else but Nan Shi! The Liu family is now willing to let us propose marriage, so mother should go to Madam Liu, not this Madam Shen!"

Princess Ning's expression changed: "Get out of here! You have no right to speak here!"

When Liu Nanshi had a good reputation, Madam Liu refused to even meet him and did not give Prince Ning's Mansion any chance. Now that Liu Nanshi's reputation has been ruined, she wants her son to marry him?

No way!

Since she has been abused by the men in Wanhua Tower, how can she be worthy of marrying her son!

She was afraid that her son would indulge in sensual pleasures and become exhausted early, so she had been controlling him and not allowing him to mess around in matters between men and women. Her son is still a virgin now!

After scolding Xiao Qingyuan, Princess Ning looked at Qi and said, "Madam Shen, please come this way. I've spoiled my son, so he's a bit straightforward and likes to talk nonsense. Please don't be offended."

Qi quickly said, "I'm not surprised. The prince is a man of character. He speaks directly and doesn't beat around the bush. That's good, very good!"

Princess Ning actually didn’t care what Qi thought at all. She cared more about Shen Wantang.

So, she waved towards Shen Wantang: "Tang'er, come closer. It's only been a few days since we last met, why are you so distant from me?"

Shen Wantang walked over as she was told, just smiled at Princess Ning and said nothing.

She didn't understand. Didn't Princess Ning already dislike her? Why did she like her again this time?

Could it be that after much searching, she still couldn't find a daughter-in-law that suited her? So she called her back to examine her again?
