On the afternoon when Sheng Nuan and Yun Niang left the Sheng family, the Sheng family received a visit from Xiao Xuanqing...
Xiao Xuanqing was completely different from his original appearance, but Sheng Xiaohe already knew that he was here for treatment of injuries, and Xiao Xuanqing's demeanor was as good as ever. As soon as he opened his mouth, Sheng Xiaohe knew that this was indeed the eldest son of the Xiao family.
There are actually people who can change their appearance.
After sitting down, Xiao Xuanqing went straight to the topic and said with a slight smile: "Today, I am actually here to propose marriage for my brother-in-law. I was supposed to send a matchmaker, but my brother-in-law values the daughter of your family too much and insists on forcing me to do this."
If I go there, I have to sacrifice my face to find someone from Shanda."
Sheng Xiao and Wei were startled, feeling strange in their hearts.
Asking for marriage for the second son of the Xiao family? Could it be that Xiao Xuanqing didn’t do it for himself?
After a pause, Sheng Xiaohe smiled: "I wonder which daughter of the lower official the second master wants to marry?"
Even though Xiao Xuanqing does not hold an official position now, Sheng Xiaohe has been demoted one by one... He knows that this prosperous Tang Dynasty already belongs to the Xiao family.
Xiao Xuanqing smiled: "The fifth lady of your house, Sheng Nuan."
Sheng Xiaohe was suddenly startled: "Five...this..."
He looked a little ugly: "But, before Xiao Wu, she..."
At this time, a Xuanying guard came to Xiao Xuanqing's ear and said something. Xiao Xuanqing paused slightly, and then smiled: "It turns out that Shanda people have divorced the fifth lady's biological mother and expelled them from the house."
He stood up directly: "In that case, I will go directly to find Mrs. Yun."
Xiao Xuanqing walked directly out, and Sheng Xiaohe stood up quickly: "Eldest Young Master, the engagement between the Eldest Young Master and the little girl..."
Xiao Xuanqing paused for a moment, then turned around and looked puzzled: "Hasn't the engagement been fulfilled? I have also given the Fifth Young Lady a letter of release. Now, the Xiao family and the Sheng family no longer have anything to do with each other."
After saying that, Xiao Xuanqing smiled, turned around and left.
Sheng Yan chased her out of the room, her face pale and gloomy: "Daddy, daddy, what's going on?"
Sheng Xiaohe fell silent.
Only then did he realize that the eldest son of the Xiao family had no intention of marrying his daughter again. The reason why he came to the Sheng family was because of Sheng Nuan.
That cheap girl married the eldest young master, and now she is entangled with the second young master!
Sheng Xiaohe subconsciously thought about punishing Sheng Nuan, but then he remembered that Sheng Nuan and his biological mother had been kicked out of the Sheng family... Now, they have nothing to do with the Sheng family.
Sheng Yan also realized that her dream of marrying into the palace and becoming a queen would never come true, so she fell down on a chair and covered her face and cried...
On the other side, Sheng Nuan and Yun Niang were living very comfortably.
The house she bought had three entrances and three exits. It was originally the courtyard of an official. But before the turmoil in Shengjing, the official heard the news and ran away with his family early and sold the house.
It is fully furnished and has a garden pavilion, which is very elegant.
Until she had lived in it for several days, Yun Niang still couldn't believe that such a big house belonged to her and her daughter.
There are also newly purchased maids and ladies, all of whom are respectful.
The Zhou brothers live in the courtyard outside. They look after the courtyard and it is very safe.
Yun Niang looked at the clothes on her body and the food on the table, and finally couldn't help but pull Sheng Nuan and ask her: "Nuan Nuan, tell mother, where did you get the money?"
Naturally, Sheng Nuan couldn't be said to have gotten it from the bandits' den. She smiled and said it was the compensation given by the Xiao family. Yun Niang's expression was extremely complicated for a moment.
She also just learned that the Xiao family gave their daughter a release letter, not a divorce letter, which gave her daughter enough dignity.
Now it is also known that the Xiao family actually gave their daughter a lot of money so that she could live alone even if she was alone.
This shows how generous the Xiao family is.
Yun Niang finally calmed down, and Sheng Nuan was also thinking about starting some business, planning to take advantage of the previous turmoil and the low prices in stores.
On this day, she had just come back from visiting the store. Before she even entered the door, she suddenly realized something was wrong.
Is there a mysterious shadow guard outside her house?
The customer service staff yelled: "Someone is at your house."
Sheng Nuan paused, then walked in with the Zhou brothers. As soon as he entered the flower hall, he saw Xiao Xuanye wearing a fox fur cloak sitting there talking to Yun Niang.
"...If the Sheng family hadn't deliberately concealed it, I would have come to ask Nuannuan to marry her... The scar behind her ear was caused by saving me."
Xiao Xuanye coughed lightly: "When I went to Yanyunguan, it was Nuannuan who took care of and protected me all the way. Aunt Yun, she treated me so well, it didn't matter even if I lost my life for her, let alone this little injury
Already."
Yun Niang had been listening to the story of the life-and-death promise between Mr. Xiao and his daughter for a long time, and she was moved to tears.
"Good boy, good boy, I won't stop you... I don't know how much hardship a person has to endure in this life. If you miss out on a good destination because of worldly vision and other people's gossip, it's not worth it..."
At this time, hearing Sheng Nuan's footsteps, both people in the hall turned around.
Xiao Xuanye drank the ecstasy soup for Yun Niang for a long time, and suddenly saw Sheng Nuan, and immediately coughed lightly and his eyes flashed slightly.
Sheng Nuan saw his guilty conscience and was a little amused but also speechless: "You haven't recovered from your injuries, so why are you running around?"
Xiao Xuanye stood up and walked to her, looked down at her, and said in a soft voice: "You have never wanted to see me. I wanted to see you, so I came."
There was no trace of the past coldness and cruelty between his brows and eyes, only the bright spring light was left.
Thinking of the image of him holding her in his arms with panic in his eyes, while he was covered in wounds and dying, Sheng Nuan's heart softened and she tucked his cloak in the middle.
Xiao Xuanye's eyes lit up instantly: "Nuan Nuan..."
After that, Xiao Xuanye first came to Sheng Nuan's house every now and then, and then he came every day...
More than a month later, on the day of Laba, Xiao Xuanye came wearing a dark blue brocade robe and a gray cloak with a betrothal gift.
The betrothal gift alone was a thick stack, and Yun Niang was completely shocked when she saw the gold, silver and jewelry being brought in box by box.
Soon, the news spread in Shengjing that the second son of the Xiao family wanted to marry the fifth daughter of the Sheng family and the eldest sister-in-law who had divorced her brother.
Everyone knows that Sheng Nuan married the eldest son with her spiritual status in mind, but no matter what, she was the eldest sister-in-law in name only... The Xiao family is not particular about it.
But everyone only dared to criticize, but no one dared to say a word outside.
After all, the entire world belongs to the Xiao family...
But compared to liking it, more people are talking about Shengjia.
He ridiculed Sheng Xiao and his short-sightedness for abandoning Sheng Nuan's biological mother Yun Niang, and ridiculed him for his betrayal and forcing his concubine to marry him.
Sheng Yan was also laughed at. After all, if she had kept her engagement and married into the Xiao family, she would not be in such an embarrassing situation now.
The day before New Year's Eve, Xiao Xuanye announced his succession, and everyone was shocked again.
They thought it would be the eldest son of the Xiao family who would succeed him.
Xiao Xuanye originally wanted his brother to be the emperor, but he was really not interested. However, because Xiao Xuanqing was using someone else's body, Aman himself could not guarantee that something would go wrong one day with the Wuyi clan's secret skills. Therefore,
Xiao Xuanye succeeded to the throne.
They agreed that Xiao Xuanye would succeed to the throne and then pass the throne to Xiao Xuanqing's heirs.
On New Year's Eve, Xiao Xuanye ascended the throne and married Queen Sheng Nuan... On the wedding day, he issued a general amnesty, reduced taxes, allocated funds for disaster relief, and promulgated a series of laws to benefit the country and the people.
That night, Xiao Xuanye entertained the officials in the Imperial Garden, while Sheng Nuan and Su Luan took a hot spring bath in Huaqing Pool.
Su Luan ate the cherries while exclaiming: "I never thought that Xiao Er could still be the emperor, tsk..."
Sheng Nuan also drank some wine and smiled sullenly: "I also think he is quite human-like..."
However, Su Luan's voice stopped. Sheng Nuan opened her eyes and found that someone had changed before her.
It turned out that she had just slept in the hot spring like this.
Xiao Xuanye stretched out his hand and took the person into his arms: "Tell me bad things, huh?"
Sheng Nuan poked the person away with his finger and chuckled: "Yeah, what, do you want revenge?"
Xiao Xuanye held her hand and brought it to her lips, kissing her carefully: "I don't want to let go..."
Sheng Nuan smiled mischievously: "That's not what you said at the beginning. Let me think about it... who was yelling at me after sleeping with me at that time? Well..."
Before he could finish his words, he was kissed hard as if he was being punished.
Xiao Xuanye gritted his teeth: "Stop talking."
Sheng Nuan smiled evilly: "I have to say, who made you be so cruel to me, the eldest sister-in-law? Hey, it seems that you haven't called me eldest sister-in-law yet. Come on, call me..."
Xiao Xuanye couldn't bear it anymore and finally bullied him into silence.
"Well..."
In Huaqing Pool, the water carried the petals on the surface to the shore and then pulled them back into the pool. The water waves kept shaking. In the mist, two entangled figures were looming, fragrant and extremely beautiful...
