Xiao Yuchen listened to her explanation, his eyes fixed on her face, as if trying to tell from her expression whether she was lying.

Looking at Jiang Tangxi's serious expression, his anger was slightly reduced.

However, he was still somewhat unwilling, so he gently raised his hand and tapped Jiang Tangxi's head.

"Hmph, even if you're thinking about me, you're so easily bringing a woman who is a potential threat to your husband home. Aren't you afraid that I will really be fascinated by her? Are you so confident?"

Xiao Yuchen's tone was full of resentment, as if a wronged child was asking for a reasonable explanation.

When Jiang Tangxi heard this, the smile on her face became even brighter.

She raised her head and looked at Xiao Yuchen with sparkling eyes full of trust and determination.

"Your Majesty, of course I believe in you. We have been through so many ups and downs together, and my feelings and trust in you are as solid as a rock. I know that you only have me in your heart, and no matter how powerful that princess is, she can't shake the relationship between us. Moreover, I have confidence in myself, and I believe that my position in your heart cannot be replaced by anyone."

Jiang Tangxi's words were spoken with such sincerity that her voice sounded like the sound of nature to Xiao Yuchen's ears.

Xiao Yuchen's face was originally stern, but after hearing Jiang Tangxi's words, he finally couldn't help but smile slightly.

However, he still deliberately coughed lightly, trying to maintain his dignity.

"Hmph, I'll trust you this time. But don't act on your own in the future. You must discuss anything with me first. Otherwise, I won't forgive you so easily."

Although Xiao Yuchen said this, in fact, Jiang Tangxi had already coaxed him into submission.

Jiang Tangxi nodded quickly, like a well-behaved little rabbit.

"Your Majesty, I understand. I will obey you in everything from now on. Now, are you not angry anymore?"

Jiang Tangxi pulled Xiao Yuchen's sleeve and shook it gently, she looked so adorable.

Xiao Yuchen looked at her coquettish appearance, and the last trace of anger in his heart disappeared without a trace. He shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand and gently scratched Jiang Tangxi's nose.

"You really make me love and hate you. I'll let you go this time, but since that Tuoba Yanxi lives in our house, you must keep a close eye on her and never let her take advantage of anything. If she dares to do anything excessive, you must tell me immediately, understand?"

Although Xiao Yuchen's tone was still a little harsh, his eyes were full of love and care for Jiang Tangxi.

Jiang Tangxi nodded vigorously, "Your Highness, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of her and will never let her affect our lives."

Just then, there was a sudden noisy sound outside the door.

Xiao Cui ran in like a gust of wind, looking anxious, as if her butt was on fire.

As she ran, she shouted, "Princess, it's bad, it's bad! Something big has happened outside."

Jiang Tangxi was originally acting coquettishly in Xiao Yuchen's arms, but when she heard these words, she immediately jumped out of Xiao Yuchen's arms like a spring.

Xiao Cui said breathlessly, "Princess, someone has set up a bet outside, betting on who will become the future true mistress of our palace, you or that Princess Tuoba Yanxi. Now the gambling house is very lively, many people are scrambling to place bets. If you win, it's two to one. Everyone thinks that Princess Tuoba Yanxi is too arrogant, but she is beautiful and talented! So everyone is optimistic that she can gain a foothold in the palace. And some people think that after all, she is of noble status, and maybe she can rely on the power behind her to suppress you, so if you bet on her to win, it's five to one."

When Jiang Tangxi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had seen a great opportunity.

And Jiang Tangxi was not idle either.

She rushed to her dressing table again. When she reached the dressing table, she didn't care about anything else and just lay on the ground, reaching out her hands to touch the bottom of the dressing table.

After a while, she took out a box.

She couldn't wait to open the box, only to see that it was full of white silver. The silver sparkled in the sun and almost blinded her eyes.

Jiang Tangxi's eyes suddenly lit up like two little light bulbs. She stuffed the money into Xiao Cui's hand with a serious face, looking like a general commanding thousands of troops.

"Xiao Cui, this is my entire family's fortune, you must seize this opportunity. Take it to the casino and have a good bet! Remember, you must vote for me, I will definitely beat that Princess Tuoba Yanxi."

Jiang Tangxi spoke so passionately, as if she had already seen herself winning a lot of money.

Xiao Cui was stunned when she saw the handful of silver in her hand.

Her mouth was wide open and her eyes were round, and she looked as if she had seen something incredible.

She stammered, "Princess, do you really want to gamble this? What if you lose?"

Jiang Tangxi said confidently: "With the prince here, how can we lose? Just go ahead and vote boldly."

Xiao Yuchen, who was standing by, looked at her and felt both angry and amused.

Xiao Cui looked at Xiao Yuchen without saying anything...she took Jiang Tangxi's belongings and walked out!

She rubbed her hands excitedly and was about to take action, but suddenly thought of Xiao Yuchen.

She turned her head, looked at Xiao Yuchen eagerly, and said, "Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity for us. You will definitely not let me lose, right? You must have a way for me to win."

Xiao Yuchen looked at her helplessly, shook his head and said, "You, you just know how to mess around. But since you said so, I will naturally not let you lose. But this gambling game is obviously someone trying to provoke us, we can't fall into their trap so easily."

Jiang Tangxi didn't think so. She pulled Xiao Yuchen's arm and shook it, saying coquettishly, "My Lord, I don't care. We must make this money. Just think of a way. You are so capable, you will definitely make me the final winner."

Xiao Yuchen was so annoyed by her that he could only say, "Does the palace need that little money? You are really too bored all day, right?"

Jiang Tangxi almost jumped up with joy when she heard this. She quickly said, "Xiao Xiaoyu! Who would complain about having too much money?"

Although Xiao Yuchen's mouth was full of disgust, his body was very honest!

He called a few of his confidants and whispered a few words in their ears.

After hearing this, the confidants immediately nodded in understanding and left in a hurry.
