"But you are not acquainted with him." Shen Qiu anxiously said, "How do you know how he conducts himself?"
"Isn't the world like this?" Shen Miao lightly said, "Some people get along for a lifetime and do not know the other party's way of life. Marrying to Prince Rui is not as bad as you all think. Staying in the Ding capital, it would be easier for others to plot against my identity and the Shen family would not be able to protect me. "
Shen Xin's eyes flashed with a trace of pain.
The greater her military power was, the more shackles she had to endure. The more the Emperor feared her, the more he wanted to restrain her. Shen Miao's marriage could be manipulated by the Crown Prince previously, naturally it could be manipulated by others. One should not be afraid of thieves stealing but one should be afraid of thieves remembering. The Shen family indeed could not protect Shen Miao.
For the first time in his body and mind, he hated his military power.
"Great Liang is a good place." Shen Miao smiled slightly and there was some yearning in her tone, "It was written in the travel notes that the Great Liang country was prosperous and the people were peaceful. The doors were not closed at night and people sang and danced to celebrate peace. The people are happy, and the bandits are purged. It's a good scene. "
"No matter how good the scenery is, you're alone …" Luo Xue Yan couldn't bear to continue.
"Great Liang's Princess Rui is the Qinwang Fei. He's only below one person and above tens of thousands, so he won't go so far as to bully me. " Shen Miao pondered, "Since Prince Rui wants to marry me, one cannot say that he has deep feelings for me, naturally he would treat me well."
She rarely said such teasing words about herself, but it made Luo Xue Yan and the rest laugh. Luo Xue Yan smiled, "Silly child, he may not necessarily …" Her words suddenly stopped. Shen Miao was smart and intelligent, so how would she not know that Prince Rui was most likely not her person, but was here for the Shen family? Saying that was just to reassure them.
Thinking of this, Luo Xue Yan felt extremely sad.
Shen Miao smiled gently, "It is a happy event but why do you all look so unhappy? If that's the case, it would be bad luck. " She said, "Since the imperial edict has been issued, it won't be long before we are notified. I also have to start embroidering my dowry."
There was not a trace of complaint or unhappiness in her tone. Instead, it was very natural, as if this was a marriage that had been proposed for a long time. The more it was like this, the sadder Shen Xin and his wife were.
After talking for a while, Shen Miao felt tired and everyone then ate. The meal was tasteless and everyone had their own thoughts. After the meal, everyone dispersed to rest. Luo Tan held onto Shen Miao's arm as she had something to say to Shen Miao. Just as they were walking towards her courtyard, Luo Ling called out to her.
"Cousin Ling, what's the matter?" Shen Miao looked at him and asked.
Luo Ling asked, "Biao Younger Sister really want to marry Prince Rui?"
Luo Tan looked at Luo Ling strangely and Luo Tan smiled, "The Imperial edict is already out, whether one wants or not, it has nothing to do with me."
"I thought you would directly say no." Luo Ling's eyes dimmed but there was still a smile, "Just like the rejection of those Young Masters in the Xiao Chun City."
Shen Miao smiled but did not speak.
"Congratulations." He smiled bitterly.
Shen Miao nodded her head in thanks.
After finally sending off Luo Ling, Luo Tan pulled Shen Miao back to the courtyard and dismissed the servants before closing the door. Lowering her voice, she said mysteriously, "Biao Youngest Sister, you know about this matter right?"
"What?" Shen Miao was baffled.
"It is the matter of Prince Rui forcing His Majesty to bestow a marriage to you." Luo Tan said in a hurry.
Shen Miao's heart jumped. Luo Tan was usually carefree and was not sensitive to anything but on matters that she should not know, she had an exceptionally sharp intuition.
She dealt with it vaguely, "How is it possible?"
"Why is it not possible?" Luo Tan's interest was piqued, "Do you still remember the last time when we were kidnapped? When I woke up, I brought your words to Prince Rui and Prince Rui found you not long later. At that time I was curious about the relationship between the both of you. Your relationship must be very good otherwise why would Prince Rui help you? Is it like what the books say, heroes and beauties and such? "
