Chapter 106 Can a dog be a legal wife?
Chu Yanlu ignored her and ordered the maid, "Drag her out, and don't let me see her again!"
Two maids began dragging her out, but Mu Ge struggled desperately: "Young Master, save me! If I go out now, that thief will definitely kill me!"
Xiao Qingyuan felt a terrible headache. His injuries hadn't fully healed to begin with, and after going out for a while, he had barely managed to hold on until now, which was almost his limit.
A metallic taste rose in his throat: "Yanluo, can't you... can't you give me face just once? Not even once?"
Chu Yanluo didn't notice his strange behavior; she was now focused on killing Mu Ge: "What kind of face does the young master want? To take Mu Ge as a concubine? Don't even think about it! I will never agree to that!"
As Mu Ge struggled, she shouted, "Chu Yanluo, my stay at the Prince's residence was personally approved by the Crown Princess! You are neither the Crown Princess nor the Crown Prince's concubine, so what right do you have to drive me away?"
"Don't you also live in the Prince's mansion without any official status? Why can you live here but I can't? Even the Crown Princess didn't kick me out, so why are you kicking me out?"
"I won't leave! I'll only leave if the Crown Princess kicks me out!"
Chu Yanluo's face darkened: "Fine, it's Shen Wantang again! It really was her doing! Xiao Qingyuan, you divorce her right now!"
Xiao Qingyuan felt that she was being unusually noisy today, and an indescribable irritation rose in his heart: "I've already told you, I won't divorce you!"
Chu Yanluo gritted her teeth: "Fine, then I'll go find Shen Wantang. If she has any shame, she should give up the position of Crown Princess. This position originally belonged to me; she doesn't deserve to sit here!"
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked out: "You two, take this slut with you. I'm going to settle accounts with Shen Wantang! She dared to put women around the young master while I was away. Does she really think I, Chu Yanluo, am someone to be trifled with!"
When Xiao Qingyuan saw that she was actually going to find Shen Wantang, he felt dizzy and disoriented: "This has nothing to do with Shen Wantang! Yanluo, come back, don't go looking for trouble with Shen Wantang!"
However, Chu Yanluo didn't listen to him at all. She moved with lightning speed and disappeared in no time.
Xiao Qingyuan had no choice but to endure the severe headache and follow.
Wutong Garden.
The well-informed Qin Xin had already told Shen Wantang everything about the argument in Xinghe Courtyard.
Of course, she also told Chu Yanluo that she had brought people to attack, and her tone was quite gloating: "Princess Consort, should we close the door? Let those two dogs fight like dogs, let's see if they can argue until dawn!"
Shen Wantang looked at Qin Xin helplessly. This maid was good in every way, except that she loved watching the excitement and never cared about making things worse.
"Wouldn't closing the door make me look like a coward? Besides, Chu Yanluo won't stop making a fuss just because we close the door. A little bit of fighting is fine, but if it gets too big, firstly, it will affect my mother's rest, and secondly, people will laugh at me, saying that I can't even handle two people like this."
Qin Xin's eyes lit up: "You have a way to cure them?"
"Yes, dealing with them is easy, isn't it?"
"But... what if the young master protects them?"
"Don't worry, I've given the prince face so many times, today, he should repay me no matter what."
Shen Wantang remained calm and composed, speaking in a leisurely tone. All the effort she had put into Xiao Qingyuan and all the groundwork she had laid were for the purpose of establishing her absolute authority later.
If even this can't earn her Xiao Qingyuan's support, then she's lived in vain.
Soon, Chu Yanluo arrived in a menacing manner, accompanied by her two maids and Mu Ge, who had been dragged there by her maids.
"Shen Wantang!"
As soon as Chu Yanluo entered, she angrily said, "You are too insidious and shameless! You can't compare to me and can't get the prince's love, so you try to force other women into his life, hoping to have them steal his love! You're just daydreaming!"
"There's no way the prince could ever like her. Even if you had her dress up exactly like me, it wouldn't work! Don't waste your time. The prince has loved only me in this life, the next!"
As Shen Wantang flipped through the book, she took a sip of tea without even raising her head or blinking, as if she hadn't heard anything and as if Chu Yanluo was invisible.
Seeing that she was being ignored like this, Chu Yanluo became even angrier: "Shen Wantang, are you deaf? Didn't you hear me talking to you?!"
Shen Wantang still didn't hear her; she was still reading her book and drinking her tea.
Seeing that her mistress disdained to speak to her, Granny Chai spoke up on her behalf, scolding, "How dare you shout in front of the Princess Consort! What kind of manners are these! Didn't your parents teach you manners? You don't even bow to the Princess Consort? Kneel down!"
Chu Yanluo arrogantly raised her chin: "Make me kneel before her? She's not worthy! The seat she's sitting in was originally mine! She, Shen Wantang, is a thief who stole the position that should have belonged to me as the legal wife! The whole city knows that the young master admires me, and she must know that too, but she still shamelessly married into the family. She is a sinner who interfered in the relationship between me and the young master!"
Shen Wantang finally raised her head and looked at Chu Yanluo with amusement: "Marriage is not a child's play. When I married into the royal family, it was arranged by my parents and matchmakers, with the proper betrothal and official registration. What do you have to say that I stole your place?"
"I have the Crown Prince's love!"
"Even a dog can have the crown prince's love; can a dog be a legal wife?"
Chu Yanluo was furious: "Shen Wantang, you called me a dog? You're the dog, your whole family are dogs!"
Compared to her breakdown and anger, Shen Wantang appeared remarkably calm and composed. She even smiled faintly: "I am now a member of the Prince's Mansion. Prince Ning is my father, Princess Ning is my mother, and the Crown Prince is my husband."
As she spoke, her smile gradually faded, replaced by a cold and ruthless expression: "You really have a death wish, daring to insult them all."
Chu Yanluo froze, but then she arrogantly said, "So what if I cursed you? You wouldn't dare to kill me, would you, Shen Wantang? Because I am the prince's beloved, you wouldn't dare to touch me! So, you can only resort to the most despicable means to stuff women into the prince's room!"
As she spoke, she forcefully ripped the white ribbon from Mu Ge's hair: "Trying to copy me with white? You're just imitating me!"
"Shen Wantang, your scheming tactics are useless. The Crown Prince will never look up to you. He despises you from the bottom of his heart and has wanted to divorce you for a long time!"
"If you still want to save face, you'd better pack your things and leave in a sorry state. Otherwise, if the young master really divorces you, you'll lose all face, and the Shen family will be ashamed of you as well!"
A cold voice suddenly rang out: "Chu Yanluo, haven't you caused enough trouble?! Get back here right now!"
