After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

After the Second Prince left, Shen Yinzhen immediately resumed her smug demeanor, her voice no longer affected. "You... don't like the Second Prince, do you? Let's talk some other time? I'm afraid there won't be a chance. Hahahaha... hahahaha."

Shen Yinzhen smiled happily, with a look of mockery in her eyes.

Helan Xuenuo knew what Shen Yinzhen was laughing at without even having to think about it. After all, she was very straightforward and didn't beat around the bush at all.

Didn't she just think that Helan Xuenuo might be interested in the Second Prince? It must have been the Second Prince who had just expressed his feelings to her in Wenxiang Tower that made her so happy.

Shen Yinzhen had already wavered when the Second Prince saved her. Even though she still came to Wenxiang Tower occasionally, she was already overjoyed when she saw the Second Prince express his feelings to her like this.

I'm afraid Huang Jiuyuan has also been forgotten.

In addition, she mistakenly thought that Helan Xuenuo was also interested in the second prince. She originally liked to snatch things from Helan Xuenuo, and the same was true for men.

Helan Xuenuo raised the corner of her mouth slightly, then immediately lowered it, pretending to be unhappy and said, "What does Sister Shen mean? My feelings for the Second Prince are long-lasting, and one day the Second Prince will see my feelings. But as for you, Sister, there's no way the Second Prince would like you... is that right?"

Shen Yinzhen immediately became anxious, "What do you mean? Ha! I didn't want to tell you, but you insisted on being so cheap. So I'll tell you, the Second Prince has just expressed his feelings to me, and we're getting married soon. He'll come to the mansion to propose marriage in a few days, so... put your mind at ease."

She slowed down her speech again and said with a mocking laugh, "But... if you don't mind, after I enter the palace and become the prince's consort, I will speak well of you to His Highness and ask him to make you a concubine. How about that? Hahahaha"

Helan Xuenuo pretended to be incredulous and said, "You...you must be lying to me..."

Shen Yinzhen curled her lips and smiled, "Whether I'm lying to you or not, in a few days, the gongs and drums will be the evidence, and the red clothes will be the proof. Don't be so delusional. How could the Second Prince marry the daughter of a warrior?"

She said again in a mean way, "Seriously, would you consider being a concubine? If you do, I'll talk to His Highness about it. I'll treat you well and teach you the rules."

Helan Xuenuo pretended to cooperate and said, "I do have this intention, but my parents don't want me to be a concubine. If I have to be one, I can only be the prince's consort. Why don't you consider giving the position of prince's consort to me?"

Without hesitation, Shen Yinzhen angrily replied, "Go ahead and dream on. Go marry that incompetent kid Yuan Xu. I was your follower when I was little, so why not continue to be your follower now that I'm grown up? You're so fickle."

Helan Xuenuo feigned anger and replied, "Sister Shen, you say I'm fickle? Everyone in the capital knows that you're infatuated with Huang Jiuyuan? And now... now you're going to marry the Second Prince?"

Shen Yinzhen didn't get angry either. She smiled complacently and said, "I know you want to provoke me, but I tell you, it's impossible. I misjudged that playboy Huang Jiuyuan. If you like him, go ahead and marry him. Don't try to provoke me so that you can monopolize the position of the prince's consort, right? I don't know what you are thinking."

She saw the Second Prince turn around and glance at her, and immediately greeted her with a gentle smile, a far cry from the shrewish look just now. She said, "I won't talk to you anymore. The Second Prince is waiting for me and he's getting impatient."

Helan Xuenuo watched her leave beside her with great pride, even the hem of her skirt fluttering in the air as proudly as she did.

She lit the fire really well.

The matter between the Second Prince and Shen Yinzhen is a done deal.

After Shen Yinzhen and the second prince left, Helan Xuenuo returned to normal. She had just acted out that drama with Shen Yinzhen, and she was really scheming. Unexpectedly, Shen Yinzhen was so stupid.

Xiao Yuanzhao tugged at the corner of Helan Xuenuo's clothes and said, "Sister, do you like the Second Prince?"

Helan Xuenuo smiled and blinked, then deliberately replied, "Yes."

Little Yuanzhao's unhappy expression surfaced, "Hmph... I think my brother is very good. You are engaged to him, so you can't betray him."

Xiao Zhu immediately poked his forehead with his finger and said, "Silly boy, can't you see that the girl is acting?"

Xiao Yuanzhao touched his forehead and thought again, it turned out that he was acting, that's good, that's good.

Helan Xuenuo turned around and glanced at Huang Jiuyuan who was still hiding under the stall not far away.

Huang Jiuyuan would occasionally glance up, and only after he saw that the Second Prince and Shen Yinzhen had left did he put down the portrait he was covering, put it back on the stall, and took a deep breath.

He stood up, walked towards them with a smile on his face, and asked, "How was your conversation just now? Is there any good news?"

Helan Xuenuo deliberately teased, "It's a happy event..."

"Tell me about it quickly." Huang Jiuyuan couldn't contain his joy. He had just been hiding from Shen Yinzhen subconsciously, but he was indeed afraid of Shen Yinzhen. He was even more afraid that after seeing him, Shen Yinzhen would lose control and refuse to marry the second prince, so he hid.

Helan Xuenuo frowned and said, "It's... your happy event with Shen Yinzhen."

Huang Jiuyuan's grinning mouth quickly turned down, and he asked as if petrified, "No way? Oh my God."

He wondered if Shen Yinzhen had just caught sight of him and thought he was too handsome, so she didn't want to marry the Second Prince anymore. He'd been hiding it so well, so how had it been revealed? Was he really that charming?

The thought of marrying Shen Yinzhen made him extremely reluctant. If it really didn't work out, he would just take the money and run away.

Helan Xuenuo looked at Huang Jiuyuan, who was busy thinking about something. A rare melancholy look appeared on his face. This face became more beautiful when he was thinking seriously. She didn't have the heart to tease Huang Jiuyuan anymore and said with a smile, "Okay, I'm just kidding. There's a baby in the Shen family, but it's not with the Prime Minister, but with the Second Prince."

Huang Jiuyuan immediately felt relieved, his face filled with joy, he could hardly contain it. He glanced at Helan Xuenuo with dissatisfaction, "You almost scared me to death just now. I had already planned how to escape."

Huang Jiuyuan had actually planned how to escape? In his previous life, he and Shen Yinzhen had both gone to hell together. It seemed they couldn't escape, and must have been captured by the powerful Prime Minister.

Helan Xuenuo said, "You can't escape even if you want to."

Huang Jiuyuan asked, "How do you know I can't escape? I've made some friends on the waterway, and they all have close ties with my family. Can't I just spend some money and escape by water?"

"You're stupid, you are. They only associate with your family out of respect for the Prime Minister. As soon as you get on the boat, they'll definitely tie you up and send you back to the Prime Minister's residence."

Helan Xuenuo finally understood why Huang Jiuyuan couldn't escape in his previous life. He had some cleverness, but not much.

Helan Xuenuo thought for a moment and said, "If you really want to escape, you should disguise yourself, sneak out of the city, ride to the nearest city, and then... lose your horse and buy a carriage. If you change carriages along the way, it will be difficult to catch you. The best thing is to pretend to be dead. Even if you don't die, they will find you sooner or later. Then you can take a pair of shoes and put them down by the river and pretend to jump into the river to die."

"That's right...that's right." Huang Jiuyuan nodded with satisfaction.

Helan Xuenuo shook her head helplessly and said, "You don't need to run away. You can't marry Shen Yinzhen now. The next one will be better."
