Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 574 Shen Wantang, how are you?

Jiang Yan felt guilty, and he immediately said, "Cousin, you don't have to pay me, I can borrow some from the bank!"

"Cousin, if you go to the bank to borrow money, won't the interest be very high? Then won't all the money we earn be given to others? Forget it. I got a few pieces of jewelry recently. I'll sell them and use the money to buy you some goods! In addition to Shuiyunyan, you should also buy some other materials. The counter of the shop can't be empty."

Jiang Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, cousin. I'm an acquaintance of the bank's owner. I even gave him some clothes before!"

"He promised me that if I really needed money, I could borrow it from him. As long as we paid it back quickly, he would only charge me a small amount of interest."

"You should keep your jewelry. You are now favored by the noble ladies in the capital. How can you go out to entertain guests without a decent piece of jewelry?"

Shen Wantang frowned: "How fast do you want to pay it back?"

"It can't be more than half a month. If it's more than half a month, the shopkeeper won't be able to make the decision. Cousin, do you think we can sell all the Shuiyunyan in half a month?"

Shen Wantang smiled: "Yes!"

She already had the experience of two lifetimes. As long as someone of noble status took the lead in wearing Shui Yunyan, it would quickly become popular throughout the capital.

By then, even the ladies in the palace will be vying for it.

The problem of money was solved, and Shen Wantang no longer had to sell her jewelry. She lowered her head and concentrated on picking up the cloth.

Jiang Yan carefully wrote down every piece of material she picked, and then took out the account book to show her.

When Shen Wantang was flipping through the account book, Jiang Yan was staring at her intently.

He sighed in his heart, feeling that the gap between him and her seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. It was rumored outside that not only did the Ning Wang's wife take a fancy to Shen Wantang and wanted her to be the Ning Wang's Prince's Consort, but even the Duke's wife, who was always proud and arrogant, took a fancy to Shen Wantang and wanted her to marry into the Duke's Mansion.

He wanted to ask Shen Wantang who she wanted to marry, but he felt that this was too abrupt and was afraid that asking would upset her, so he could only keep the question to himself.

Shen Wantang naturally didn't know what Jiang Yan was thinking. After she checked the account book and confirmed that they had made some money, she smiled and said, "My cousin has done a good job these days. You keep busy. I'm going back home. When Shui Yunyan comes in, send someone to tell me and I'll take it. Don't send it directly to the Shen family to avoid being intercepted."

Jiang Yan came back to his senses: "Okay, I understand."

Shen Wantang nodded and left with Du Juan.

On the way back, Du Juan couldn't help asking, "Miss, you only wanted a piece of fabric, who are you going to give it to?"

Shen Wantang was in a good mood and asked her with a smile: "Who do you think I'm going to give it to?"

"I think it was definitely not given to the Madam and the eldest daughter. It might be given to the Princess of Ning, but it also seems possible that it was given to the wife of the Duke or the eldest daughter of Gu."

Shen Wantang looked at her maid with both anger and amusement: "The last time I went to Prince Ning's Mansion, my stepmother deliberately sowed discord between us. It was obvious that Princess Ning didn't like me anymore. Why did I go to her and give her such expensive fabrics? Do I have no money to spend?"

Du Juan scratched her head and said, "I thought you wanted to give Princess Ning some gifts to mend the relationship!"

"There's nothing to mend. I never planned to marry Xiao Qingyuan, so there's no need to please the princess. If I really wanted to marry into the family, I would have slapped Qi in the face when she said bad things about me, and I wouldn't have let the princess misunderstand me."

Du Juan looked at her in shock: "Miss, did you deliberately make the princess dislike you?"

"I didn't intentionally make her dislike me, but I was too lazy to make her like me, because not only will I not marry into Prince Ning's Mansion, I will not let Shen Mingxuan have this hope either!"

Princess Ning hates her and will also hate the Shen family. Shen Mingxuan will no longer have any chance of marrying into the Ning Palace.

As they were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped. Shen Wantang was shaken badly. She frowned and asked the driver, "He Bo, what happened?"

"Second Miss, someone has stopped our carriage."

Du Juan immediately opened the door curtain. Shen Wantang looked outside and saw a person in a black cloak standing in front of the carriage. The large hood of the cloak covered most of her face, leaving only a white, pointed chin exposed.

"Shen Wantang, how are you?"

As soon as Shen Wantang heard the voice, he knew who she was.

It’s Chu Yanluo!

She was reborn again!

When she died in her previous life, she must have been more unwilling than anyone else to accept her death, and her resentment might have been heavier than that of the most vicious ghost.

If she were to live again, she would not bother Xiao Qingyuan anymore, and she would no longer wear white clothes, but instead wear black clothes.

But it is hard to say which one is more eye-catching, white or black. Anyway, her current outfit is quite strange and does not fit in with ordinary people.

Shen Wantang pretended not to know her and asked casually, "Who are you?"

Chu Yanluo's voice was cold: "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can help you."

"I don't need your help. Please go away and don't block my carriage."

"Are you sure? Can you marry into Prince Ning's mansion without my help?"

"I don't want to marry into the Ning Wang Mansion. The palace is a noble family, and it's not something a girl like me from a small family can marry into."

"What if I tell you that you married into Prince Ning's Mansion in your previous life?"

"You're a liar, right? There's no such thing as a previous life. Stop lying. Get out of the way. I have to go home."

"Of course I'm not a liar. I'm a chosen person with great luck. I can be reborn again and again. I know everything that happened in my previous life!"

"Even if you're not a liar, why would you help me? I don't believe in free lunch."

"Because I want revenge! In my previous life, I was killed by Xiao Qingyuan, that unfaithful man. In this life, I want him to pay the price with blood!"

"Ah? You want to kill Prince Xiao?"

"Kill Xiao Qingyuan? Haha, that would be too easy for him!"

Chu Yanluo smiled sinisterly, "I will make him wish he could neither live nor die!"

Shen Wantang frowned, "Since you want to take revenge on Prince Xiao, why did you let me marry him? Wouldn't I also suffer? Listen to yourself, is what you said reasonable?"

"No, you won't suffer any harm. You will only become the mistress of Prince Ning's mansion and live a respectable and wealthy life. This is how you lived in your previous life. No matter what Xiao Qingyuan becomes, it will not affect your status."

Chu Yanluo's voice was low, but it made people feel creepy: "Shen Wantang, I didn't know how much I envied you at that time. Your life is so good! If you still want to live a rich life in this life, just listen to my arrangements. I won't hurt you. I just want to help you. After all, we were... good friends in the last life."
