"But Jiao Jiao," Shen Xin spoke softly, "The eldest son of the Wei family is not bad. For you to be so resistant, is it because there is already a male that you admire? You …" He wanted to speak but stopped. In the letters that the Shen family sent, there were frequent reports of Shen Miao being infatuated with Prince Ding. In this world, if Shen Miao liked any male, he and Luo Xue Yan would not obstruct but the Tian family was different. Now that it was the time for the princes to fight for the throne, if the Shen family were to get involved, one fear that they would be dragged into the quagmire.
But these matters, Shen Miao, this kind of young lady, would not understand. On the way back, Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan had discussed numerous times on how to persuade Shen Miao to dispel this idea but at the end they were helpless. Shen Miao had a stubborn temperament and once she had decided on something, even nine bulls would not be able to pull her back. Moreover to tell a young lady to give up her sweetheart, if it was another person, one fear that they would not be able to accept it.
With one look, Shen Miao knew what Shen Xin wanted to say and said lightly, "There is no one in my heart and the reason why I am not willing to marry was because I heard that the Young Master of the Wei family already has someone in his heart. No matter how good he is, he already has Moonlight in his heart. Why should I be the one who breaks up the affectionate couple and make him lose his life for nothing? "
Her words made Shen Xin and wife somewhat dizzy. How could Shen Miao say such mature words? It was as if she was a married woman who had seen thousands of ships. Secondly, what did she say about not having anyone in her heart?
Shen Miao only gradually understood Wei Qian after she became the Empress in her previous lifetime. In the past lifetime, there was no mention of the Wei family coming up to propose marriage as Wei Qian also married his own Biao Younger Sister. As a rare young talent in the Ding capital, Wei Qian doted on his wife and at that time there was a good story about it. From this, it could be deduced that Wei Qian and Biaomei were childhood sweethearts. It was likely that when the Wei family came to propose marriage, that Young Master Wei would not be willing.
"Jiao Jiao, don't you like … Like His Highness Prince Ding?" Luo Xue Yan gritted her teeth and asked.
"Prince Ding?" When Shen Miao heard it, she said lightly, "His Highness Prince Ding is a descendant of the Heavens, how can I climb up to him? Back then, I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Now that I've calmed down, I realize that I've gone too far. I don't dare to mention this matter anymore. "
Luo Xue Yan was surprised for a moment. Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were after all males and it was alright if they did not understand. Even though she had a carefree temperament, she was still a female. Females understood the feelings in a female's heart the best. She thought that Shen Miao was only saying it but after carefully looking at Shen Miao's expression, she discovered that when Prince Ding was mentioned, Shen Miao did not have any trace of change in expression, as if she was talking about a stranger.
Not waiting for Luo Xue Yan to speak, Shen Xin himself cried out first, "Jiao Jiao, Father does not agree with your words. No matter who our Shen family matches, you are able to climb up. Which disciple of Ming Qi would dare to despise you, even if … "
"Cough." Luo Xue Yan coughed lightly and glared fiercely at Shen Xin. It was alright for Shen Xin to praise his daughter, but it was not easy for Shen Miao to dispel the thoughts of Prince Ding. Wasn't Shen Xin creating trouble for himself?
Shen Xin also knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly looked away as if nothing had happened.
Luo Xue Yan looked at Shen Miao again and when she saw her calm expression, she was relieved and smiled, "Jiao Jiao is still young and there is no rush to marry. There are so many good males in Ming Qi and our Jiao Jiao is outstanding, so would there be any fear of not being able to find a good husband? Rest assured, our Jiao Jiao's husband would definitely be an indomitable hero. "
Shen Miao's eyes drooped down as she smiled and did not say anything. Her fantasies of the person beside her had long been wiped clean after being disheartened time and time again in the Inner Palace in her previous life. In this lifetime, she had long decided not to marry but these words could not be known by Shen Xin and wife.
Ordinary females would always be a little shy when they heard about their own marriage. Moreover in the eyes of the husband and wife, Shen Miao was not a cold and hard person. But after Luo Xue Yan's words, they did not see any reaction from Shen Miao and both of them could not help but feel somewhat depressed. Even though Shen Miao was not close to them in the past, they still understood Shen Miao's temperament. Now that she returned, Shen Miao had become more and more unfamiliar. In one night, she had matured so much that Shen Xin and wife did not know how to treat their daughter. If they were to coax and persuade like before, they would look like fools when facing Shen Miao's calm eyes.
