These few days the Shen family had fallen into a very strange mood. Because of Shen Miao's marriage bestowal Imperial edict, everyone was filled with gloomy clouds. Even though everyone tried their best to show joy, at the end they could not hide the gloominess.
Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan both left early and returned late every day. It seemed that they were looking for a way to dissolve this marriage but they returned without any success. Thinking about it, since Emperor Wen Hui announced this Imperial edict in front of all the civil and military officials, most likely it was to cut off Shen Xin's thoughts of defying the edict. A ruler does not joke and words that were said were like water that was spilled. In the previous dynasty, there was a Princess who fancied the top scorer and at that time the top scorer already had a wife. Was it not because of the words' a ruler does not joke 'that he divorced his wife and remarried?
When Shen Qiu saw Shen Miao, he would always reveal a look of guilt. These days, he would frequently give Shen Miao some rare treasures and would only say, "Older brother does not have any ability and can only find these things for you."
Shen Miao was speechless about the atmosphere in the Shen family. She naturally knew that the matter was not that bad but these could not be said to the Shen family. If Shen Xin knew what Xie Jing Xing's real motive was, one did not know how big of a fuss he would make.
In Ming Qi, she had to take care of the Shen family and it was not convenient for her to do many things. If she was in the Great Liang, she could use Xie Jing Xing's name to do many things and it would be much easier.
She looked relaxed, but others thought that she was pretending. Today when she was sitting in the room reading, she saw Bai Lu rushing in, "Young Lady, Furen wants you to quickly go to the main hall. The people from the residence of Prince Rui have sent the list of betrothal gifts."
Shen Miao was startled. Betrothal gifts list?
Xie Jing Xing was really daring to the extreme. He clearly knew that the Shen family did not like him and even hated him so much, but still dared to send the list of betrothal gifts over. If this was not adding oil to the fire, then what was it?
But thinking of Xie Jing Xing's unscrupulous character, it was indeed something that he would do.
Upon reaching the main hall, one could see Luo Xue Yan holding a long thing from afar and beside Luo Xue Yan, Shen Qiu and Shen Xin were also standing with their heads stretched out. Luo Tan was covering her mouth and Luo Ling's gaze was complicated. In short, everyone's expression was very strange.
When Shen Miao stepped into the room, she then discovered that other than the Shen family, there was another person standing in the room. When she saw that person's appearance clearly, Shen Miao almost choked on herself. This person was a middle aged man with a face full of beard and Shen Miao had seen him before. He seemed to be Xie Jing Xing's bodyguard and Cong Yang also called him 'Tie Yi'. At a glance, one could tell that this person was a brave and mighty person. Today, he was wearing a bright red robe. The robe was embroidered with colorful phoenixes and auspicious clouds using thin golden peach silk threads. It was probably for the sake of a happy atmosphere. However, Tie Yi's skin was dark to begin with. Wearing this robe, his previous heroic aura was completely concealed, making him look extremely stupid.
Seeing her, Tie Yi bowed to her and said in a serious tone: "Wang fei."
This time, even Shen Qiu could not help but cough. He glared at Tie Yi, "Do not call out randomly."
Tie Yi simply did not care about him.
Shen Miao inexplicably wanted to laugh. Was Xie Jing Xing here to smash the scene? Even if it was a list of betrothal gifts, it should be found a joyous matron to read it. The residence of Prince Rui was so rich and yet they had to let Tie Yi, such a big and burly man, to read it. This was purposely making others laugh.
Seeing Shen Miao standing there in a daze, Luo Tan called out to her, "Biao Youngest Sister, why are you standing there in a daze? Quickly come and look at this betrothal gift list." She winked at Shen Miao and seemed to be very excited.
Shen Miao then walked over.
That betrothal gift list was very exquisite. It was a long roll of fragrant wood that was sprinkled with gold powder and the cover was inlaid with emerald green cat's eye stones. It was very luxurious. Even this betrothal gift list was not cheap. Even though Shen Xin and wife were not vain people, but Prince Rui's actions showed that he valued Shen Miao and his complexion became better.
