Everyone was stunned and looked at Shen Nanbao.
Shen Nanbao sat on his seat, calmly, and obviously stunned.
But no one knew how tightly the hand under her sleeve was holding on to the armrest, and how much effort it took for her to restrain herself from screaming.
She doesn't understand, why?
Why did Chen Fangyan have to have her, couldn't someone else do it?
Hasn't he got everything now?
Why not let her go?
Shen Nanbao didn't understand, and neither did the others present.
For example, the Kong family, for her, a person like the fifth girl with an unjust life experience and a biological mother who killed the legitimate son of a noble family was despised everywhere, so she approved the fifth girl to be the principal wife of the Earl's Mansion, so what about her? It is said that the world is falling into pieces.
The fifth girl must be happy and grateful. When they meet in private, they must cry bitterly and kneel in front of her to thank her for her charity.
But now there are actually other people coming to propose marriage?
Or is it the Beiting Protector who has been in the spotlight recently?
Kong only felt like he was dreaming.
The one who didn't understand was Shen Nanyi.
Since Zhang Shilian said those words, she sat in her seat and cried more and more sadly.
I feel sad that I have become like this, but I am still so abandoned by others. If I want to marry her, I have to drag myself around and give her so many looks.
But what about Shen Nanbao? But it’s so delicious that everyone wants to take a bite!
Why should she!
Her mother-in-law killed her fourth brother. She was such a evil-hearted person. Why didn't she repay her debt to her father and her son? She also suffered retribution and was looked down upon for the rest of her life!
Why!
what is this!
But after all, we couldn't let people dry out outside, so we invited people in.
When Mrs. Kong saw them giving such instructions, she couldn't help but said, "This is really what I said. There is a girl in the family, so I want to ask for it. However, I am curious. Shuzhi and Yuan Ting are close friends. On weekdays, if you don’t look up and look down, you will inevitably have feelings for each other, but Mr. Chen..."
The last sneer made everyone present froze.
Shen Shi was furious, "You bastard, how did we tell you earlier, asking you to restrain yourself and observe etiquette, but you refused to listen, and you actually..."
She was so angry that it hit her throat, and Shen Shi didn't say a word for a while. Instead, Shen Nanyi took advantage of it, and her beautiful face was horribly distorted by jealousy.
"I told you a long time ago that Fifth Sister is very scheming, not only Master Chen, but also Commander Xiao, isn't that so? Last Dragon Boat Festival, the two of them had a private meeting at Yuehuang Tower, and I caught them showing up. You still don’t admit it, saying that you want to punish Huizhai, there are so many ministers in the palace, why should they come to you instead of them?"
"Since the eldest lady is so suspicious, why don't you ask Concubine Shu why she is interested in the fifth girl's embroidery skills instead of the palace officials."
A clear sound floated in from outside.
Everyone looked around and saw Chen Fangyan standing at the door, wearing a Qishi quilt tied around his waist, outlining his graceful and slender figure. Because he stood against the light, his whole person seemed to have fallen into an abyss, and only one person was blurred. Only a handful of sunlight fell slantingly on his face, but it vividly revealed his poetic features.
It is a common problem in the world to look at others' orders, and it is also a stepping stone for young ladies to choose a husband.
After all, who wants to live in front of a muddy and colorless face for the rest of their lives?
But this alone is not enough, you also need to have the talent to know the world, or the merit of winning thousands of miles.
And this, Xie Yuanchang didn't have, Chen Fangyan not only had it, but even had a hint of manliness of "getting out of bed when it's over".
What's more, Chen Fangyan's family background is much better than Xie Yuanchang's.
With just such a glance, Kong made a calculation in his mind and became inexplicably panicked. He couldn't help but glance at Shen Nanbao.
Without thinking, she sat on her seat, wringing her handkerchief without even looking at him.
Just when Kong was surprised, Shen Shi had already bowed to the ground to greet him. The two of them were going back and forth, and soon they got to the main topic.
"I came here today actually to propose marriage to the fifth girl in the house."
As he spoke, Chen Fangyan raised his fists and leaned down deeply.
Shen Nanbao raised his head and saw his behavior. All the panic suddenly turned into boundless anger at this moment, because a long time ago, he had promised her in front of her grandmother that he would take good care of her and would never Make her sad!
But what about in the end?
He gathered the things in Zhangtai and approached the mansion one by one. He played in his room day and night, leaving her alone in the empty room, looking at the lonely moon and crying.
even!
Even when Wu Xiaoniang had abdominal pain and accused her of being poisoned, he kept her in confinement without asking. She cried so bitterly and said at the top of her lungs that she was not the one who did it.
But as for him, he just stood there and looked at her coldly, watched her cry, and said she was vicious.
She was so vicious that he couldn't stand her anymore, so he opened her mouth and forcefully poured the poison into her!
Past events came to her mind, and countless fragmentary laughter and cries mixed together, crushing her heart with edges.
Shen Nanbao stood up sadly, "I don't want to marry you!"
Everyone was shocked.
Chen Fangyan's rickety figure was stiff there, but gradually, gradually became blurred.
Shen Nanbao rolled her eyes and realized that she was crying. She wiped her eyes in a panic, and the clarity in front of her eyes also brought clarity to her mind.
She finally realized how outrageous her sudden move was and how suspicious it made him.
Shen Nanbao swallowed, her throat felt as tight as a knife cutting her. She lowered her head, held back the pain, held back her sobs, and said, "I won't marry anyone."
Old Mrs. Yin was stunned for a moment. She reacted first and frowned, "What are you talking about! You..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Nanyi wailed and interrupted, "Grandma, I told you a long time ago that she came back to seek revenge on us. How could she let us get our wish!"
Shen Wenzhuo on the side couldn't listen anymore. He could clearly see the small and slight trembling of Shen Nanbao's shoulders next to him.
She is scared.
She is crying!
Realizing this, Shen Wenzhuo felt distressed for a moment. He couldn't care about anything anymore. He stood up and said bluntly, "Sister, this matter is your fault in the first place. Why should the fifth sister bear it for you?"
No matter how much outsiders ridicule, they can't hurt the lungs as much as relatives. Shen Nanyi laughed angrily, "Why not? Her mother-in-law killed my fourth brother. Now she should repay her father's debt and repay her mother-in-law's sinful debt!"
Chen Fangyan frowned and just pouted, Shen Nanbao, who had his head buried, sneered, "Repay the debt?"
Shen Nanbao raised his head, the eyes on his smooth face were as cold as ice, which made Shen Nanyi shiver suddenly, and then she heard Shen Nanbao say: "Sister, you did something wrong, you want me to do it" Do you want to buy it? "
Before Shen Nanyi could speak, Shen Nanbao turned his head and whispered to Feng Yue, and soon saw Feng Yue retreating with a snort.
Shen Nanyi reacted at this moment and frowned tightly, "What tricks are you playing again?"
Shen Nanbao ignored her, turned to look at Mrs. Kong, and knelt down, "Mrs. Kong, although what happened that day was not a glamorous thing, and because we were all interested in it, we didn't study it carefully at the time, but you must have some thoughts afterward. After hearing what Uncle Xie said a few times, I have some doubts in my heart."
This was exactly what Kong wanted.
The incident that day was a chaotic one, and she didn't think much about it at the time, but when the cold wind blew, she suddenly came to her senses.
I know the meat that fell from my stomach better than anyone else. Although he is more romantic, he is also a person who understands etiquette. How could someone who is a good friend do such a thing.
Ke Shuzhi knelt down in the ancestral hall and told himself that he was drunk at the time and couldn't help himself when he saw the eldest girl coming over.
He said this, what can Kong do, he can only break his teeth and swallow this blood loss.
Could it be that it was Shen Nanyi's fault for running around with two legs?
But now that Shen Nanbao Te'er mentioned it, it brought back the unwillingness in her heart. Kong even ignored Chen Fangyan's presence and stood up abruptly, "Yes, Shu Zhi drank a lot of wine that day, but Shu Zhi drank a lot." I'm a pretty good drinker, I don't even care about a few drinks, but I'm so white, how could it be possible..."
Old Mrs. Yin's heart skipped a beat, "Sister Bao, it's your turn to comment on this kind of thing. If you don't step back, do you have to embarrass our Shen family?" Be willing!”
Shen Nanbao sighed softly, "Grandma, it's not me who has embarrassed the Shen family. It's the eldest sister. She herself..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Shi on the side whipped her over with a slap in the face, causing Shen Nanbao to tilt his head.
The moment she turned her head, she heard Chen Fangyan exclaim, "Shen Nanbao!"
My heart was gripped inexplicably.
Shen Nanbao stroked his cheek and looked at Shen Shi.
It was strange, it was obviously her father, but when he stood in front of her, her eyebrows and eyes looked so strange, and he was not even familiar with the title of father.
Is this the father she wanted to get back from the palace secretary in her previous life, who would rather fill holes and suffer humiliation?
Shen Nanbao felt ridiculed.
However, Shen Shi was stung by the slight curvature of the corner of her mouth, and he shouted angrily: "You still have the nerve to smile? It's because I beat you less on weekdays, which makes you more and more arrogant, and you even dare to contradict your elders! How dare you arrange your eldest sister like this! I have to teach you a lesson today and make you suffer, so that you can remember the rules of the family!"
He said, raising his hands high.
Shen Wenzhuo stood in front of Shen Nanbao, "Dad, this has nothing to do with fifth sister!"
Chen Fangyan on the other side also walked up quickly with a gloomy face. Just as he grabbed Shen Shi's waved hand, the sound of uniform footsteps came from the door.
Turning their heads, the servants of the Shen Mansion were pulled to both sides by the swordsmen. The man walking at the front had iron-clad armor that was glowing with dark blue, just like his face, which was cold and radiant. Don't let strangers in.
And as soon as he raised his eyes, the rustling autumn light fell into his eyes. For a moment, thousands of brilliance appeared, like a leopard seizing its prey, its sharp edge revealed.
Shen Shi's heart and liver trembled. He didn't understand what day it was today. Normally no one paid attention to the Shen family, but now everyone came to the humble house.
He stepped forward with weak legs, "Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief, why are you here?"
After all, he is the leader of the government, so he still has to give some face. Xiao Yichen stopped, looked down at Shen Shi with an attitude of overlooking all living beings, "Master Shen, I am here today as a matter of routine."
After saying this, Xiao Yichen suddenly smiled.
That smile was like Bing Ling, and it made Shen Shi's heart tremble in his chest. He asked tremblingly: "The palace commander is here for a routine business?"
Xiao Yichen nodded, and when he glanced at the person covering his cheek, his smile disappeared in an instant and his voice became cold.
