Those words hit Shang Shuqing's sore spot and his body swayed as he left the door that he was leaning against. He was dejected and was about to cry.
"Qing-er, we will definitely not harm you. It's really for your own good. It's not that we are forcing you, it's your brother who is anxious. He only has you as his only sister so how can he not be anxious. You're not young anymore and if this goes on, your brother will not be able to answer to his dead parents and brothers! "
"Aunt … Aunt …" The little child in her arms began to speak as he patted the door with a tender voice.
Creak! The door was suddenly pushed open by the child's chubby little hand.
Feng Ruonan was stunned for a moment as she pushed the door open and saw Shang Shuqing's back facing her with his head lowered.
"Qing-er." Feng Ruonan walked to the opposite side and seeing her like that, her heart ached.
"Aunt …" The little fellow's gesticulating made Shang Shuqing want to hug him tightly as he wanted to use the child's innocence to comfort himself.
Letting go of the child, Feng Ruonan said softly, "Sister-in-law knows that you're sad. Really, from the first day we met, sister-in-law understood you."
Crying! Shang Shuqing cried as he buried his head in the child's body and sobbed, "Don't force me! I'll marry, I'll promise you all right? I'll marry whoever you want me to as long as you're happy. "
Facing this kind of endless persuasion, she was powerless. She really could not bear it anymore.
Seeing that she agreed, Feng Ruonan heaved a sigh of relief. Actually she did not want to be forced like this but Shang Chaozong was forcing her like this.
Of course, she also understood Shang Chaozong's feelings as an elder brother.
Privately, Shang Chaozong had always blamed himself for not being able to take care of his sister.
In Yanjing, because he could not control himself, he was thrown into prison and delayed his sister's best age to get married.
After King Ning Residence disappeared, he was in prison while his sister and the elders of the Wang Residence wandered around the mountains to survive, bitterly waiting for him to come out.
It wasn't easy for him to get out, but he was ambushed again. He was so useless that his younger sister, who had never been on the battlefield, had to carry the flag to boost morale and charge into the battlefield. In the midst of the chaos, she was stabbed and almost lost her life.
If his sister hadn't insisted on going to the Shangqing Sect to invite Daoye down the mountain, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Towards his sister, Shang Chaozong felt extremely guilty and had always hoped that she would have a good ending.
Unfortunately, fate made fools of people. Feng Ruo Nan understood all of this.
"What nonsense are you spouting? It's not that you can marry whoever we want, it's up to you to choose. Qing-er, you can rest assured that no matter who you choose, your older brother will check the other person's character and will not let you casually marry an unreliable person. You can rest assured about this. "
…
Once the matter was settled, Feng Ruonan immediately threw the child to the servants, and wholeheartedly focused on preparing for Shang Shuqing's garden tour.
Being cooped up in the room, the jewellery and all kinds of clothes were exchanged one by one. Feng Ruonan personally helped to check.
Shang Chaozong, who usually requested to save money, opened the door wide this time. As long as his sister could use it, he could spend as much money as he wanted.
Shang Shuqing usually did not like to wear clothes that were too tight, as he was worried that it would attract criticism because he was ugly.
This time when he changed into clothes that were more suitable for his body, Feng Ruonan was really amazed. She had bathed with Shang Shuqing before and knew that Shang Shuqing's figure was enviable, but it was the first time she saw Shang Shuqing dressed up like this.
If one did not look at that face, that back view, that side view was really too beautiful that even females would be moved.
It was because of this that Feng Ruonan felt pity. If it was not because of that face, just based on her sister-in-law's figure, how could she be worried about marriage.
And this display of Shang Shuqing's beautiful side was exactly what Feng Ruonan wanted.
The next day, when Shang Shuqing appeared in front of a group of young geniuses, he was dressed like this, only wearing a white veil hat.
This was also arranged by Feng Ruonan, to conceal Shang Shuqing's ugly side and let everyone see Shang Shuqing's beautiful side.
As soon as she appeared, the gazes of the young geniuses were instantly attracted by Shang Shuqing's beautiful figure. It was as if they could not imagine that a woman with such a beautiful figure would have such an ugly face like the rumors said.
Moreover, in the process of coming into contact with her afterwards, the demeanor Shang Shuqing displayed and her pleasant voice even caused some of the young geniuses who were unwilling to come before to be unable to shift their gazes away.
Feng Ruonan wanted to display her sister-in-law's good side, so she specially arranged for her to participate in the four arts.
Poetry, calligraphy, zither, singing, Shang Shuqing was at her fingertips, causing many young geniuses to admire her. They were all shocked at the extraordinary talent of this ugly woman.
The young talents who were able to come to this garden were naturally people who wanted to marry her. They all came with the intention of marrying her, no matter how ugly Shang Shuqing was.
However, Shang Shuqing also had her own considerations. She used the four arts to test the candidates, and finally found one person who was slightly to her liking. But she could only choose one person, not a bunch of people.
After the garden tour ended, news of the results reached the ears of the members of the Shang Dynasty.
Shang Chaozong looked at the background and identity of the person Shang Shuqing had chosen, and immediately ordered his subordinates, "Investigate! Investigate this person's three generations of ancestors, their background, and their character. We must investigate clearly, there cannot be any negligence! "
He was a little nervous, it was not easy for his little sister to take a fancy to someone, he hoped that there would be no problems.
But he had no choice, people of their status had to guard against people with ill intentions. This matter was of great importance, he had to investigate.
…
Outside Tortoise Sleeping Pavilion, looking at the person Slowly climbing up the stairs, Ju An smiled, and quickly walked out of the eaves, to accompany her. "Why are you here?"
It was Wen Mo 'er.
Wen Mo 'er smiled, and handed over the basket in her hands, "Can't I come to see you?"
"Of course you can." Ju An took the basket, opened the lid, and couldn't help but smile happily when he saw it was a basket of fruits, "Do you still remember the first time I gave you, it was precisely this fruit, I waited until today to receive a return gift."
Wen Mo 'er rolled her eyes at him, "What nonsense, aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you." She subconsciously looked at the scattered guards nearby.
Ju An, "It's far away, I can't hear."
Wen Mo 'er first left his side, and walked to the steps outside the tightly shut door of Tortoise Sleeping Pavilion, and bowed to the door, before returning to Ju An's side. The two looked at each other and smiled, and turned together to look at the rolling mountain scenery outside the cliff.
The disharmony in the past had now been resolved, and after spending a long time together, the relationship between husband and wife had gradually developed.
In the courtyard of the thatched cottage, Guan Fangyi stood on a high pavilion, facing the wind, her makeup still exquisite.
She was always like this, as long as the conditions were right, no matter where she was, she would dress herself beautifully every day, as if she was waiting for someone. Of course, she wasn't waiting for Niu Youdao, she was like this before she met Niu Youdao.
Of course, now she had the mentality of waiting for Niu Youdao's safe return.
For now, she was temporarily relieved, and occasionally received letters from Niu Youdao, at least she knew that Niu Youdao was still alive.
And as long as there was a letter from Niu Youdao, her relationship with Yuan Gang would not be strained.
Dong! The bell rang, and Guan Fangyi looked in the direction of the Buddha hall, there, after Daoye left, Yuan Fang went there more frequently.
She went to listen, and heard Yuan Fang chanting sutras, asking Buddha to bless Daoye's safe return.
In the vegetable field outside the courtyard, several monks were farming, and everything seemed normal on the surface.
…
In the pavilion, the messenger of the Black Water Station entered, and placed a stack of confidential documents rolled into a cylinder in front of Shao Pingbo.
Shao Pingbo reached out to take it, and after tearing the seal, his eyes suddenly fell on the messenger's face, and found that the messenger actually had no intention of leaving, which was a bit abnormal, at least different from usual.
Seeing that Shao Pingbo was staring at him, the messenger turned to look at Shao Sansheng, and didn't say anything. Everything was understood without words.
Shao Pingbo understood a little, and nodded to Shao Sansheng.
Shao Sansheng immediately turned and left the pavilion.
As he slowly opened the file in his hand, Shao Pingbo asked, "Does His Majesty or Chief Tao have any other orders?"
The messenger looked around, took out something from his sleeve, and put it in front of Shao Pingbo. It was a token.
Shao Pingbo suddenly looked at the embossed pattern on the token, and his expression changed abruptly. He suddenly raised his head, "You are from the Misty Pavilion?"
"Shh!" The messenger signaled him to keep his voice down, and bent down to take the token back.
Shao Pingbo's eyes were full of surprise. He knew that the Misty Pavilion monitored the world, but he didn't expect that the person who arranged the messenger of the Black Water Station was also from the Misty Pavilion. Didn't that mean that many things here were already under the control of the Misty Pavilion?
At the same time, he was excited. He knew that since the person from the Misty Pavilion exposed his identity in front of him, he must be looking for him.
This was an opportunity to build a relationship with the Misty Pavilion. Shao Pingbo stood up, "How can I be sure that you are not an imposter?"
The messenger said, "It doesn't matter whether I am an imposter or not, you can judge for yourself. I am here under orders, and now, there is something I need you to do. "
Shao Pingbo looked at the messenger, and Slowly said, "I am trapped here, and I can't do anything."
The messenger said, "Since I can find you, it means that you have the ability to do it. Listen up, the battle you're in charge of can begin now. "
Shao Pingbo frowned, "If the imperial court doesn't agree to it, I can't make the decision."
The messenger said, "That is why I am looking for you. You must convince Tai Shu Xiong to start the war as soon as possible."
Shao Pingbo narrowed his eyes, "Since it is the Misty Pavilion's intention, they only need to send a message to the Cloud Equipment Sect, why do I need to do such an uncertain thing?"
The messenger said, "The Misty Pavilion has always been secretive. They naturally have their reasons for asking you to do it, so you don't need to ask too much. Just remember one thing, you live if it succeeds, and you die if it fails. I promise that no one can save you. "
Shao Pingbo said, "I can't confirm your identity, so I can't promise you."
The messenger gestured to the scroll with his chin, "The fifth one is about Niu Youdao's situation in the Saint Land. You and him are sworn enemies, so you will need our help. Again, if it fails, you die. If you don't agree, you won't live past today! Don't think about making other plans, you don't have a choice. "With that, he turned and left.
After watching the messenger leave, Shao Pingbo, whose eyes were flickering for a while, suddenly turned and sat down, flipped to the fifth page of the scroll, and took it out to read.
