The holy decree of marriage soon came down, and the big Qin clan and the little Qin clan knew that Ning Xi was given a marriage to the Marquis of Zhongyi, and their hearts were a little pantothenic, and they were still sympathetic to Ning Xi before they couldn't marry a good family in the future.

After receiving this will, there is still a person who is unhappy, that is, the British duke, you said that this granddaughter finally came back to live, he has not been happy for a few days, a holy decree came down, and the granddaughter will become another family, and before the marriage, he did not give him a word to his grandfather, even if you are the emperor, you can't do this! The British public felt that his heart was very congested, but the British prince's idea of loyalty to the monarch had long been deep-rooted, and now he didn't dare to complain about the emperor, so he had to put all his grievances on Shu Heng, which is why Shu Heng was not welcomed when he came to the door in the future, of course, this is all a later story.

And Ning Xi was not too shocked to receive the expected will, but the mention in the holy decree that the wedding date was set in the autumn in two years still surprised her, and she thought that she would be married off as soon as she was married. At this moment, she had mixed feelings in her heart, she didn't want to be alone, and followed Ning Miao to Ning Miao's yard like a little tail.

Because Ning Miao is about to leave the cabinet, and she will still be a princess in the future, so now her courtyard Xu has been handed over to her to take care of herself.

Ning Miao returned to the courtyard to deal with some affairs and then asked about the dishes for lunch before she sat down, rubbed her forehead, and said to Ning Xi, who had been following her: "What's the matter, seeing that you have been restless, were you frightened by the holy decree?" ”

Ning Xi pursed her lips, and instead of answering, she asked, "Second sister, were you scared when you received the holy decree?" ”

Ning Miao shrugged her shoulders and said, "In the future, I will marry someone I don't know at all for the rest of my life, of course I will be afraid." ”

"But you look calm."

Ning Miao smiled helplessly: "Then let me ask you, are you afraid that you can change your will, and if you resist, you won't marry?" ”

Ning Xi shook his head and thought for a moment before he said, "But I'm scared." ”

Ning Miao walked up to Ning Xi and touched her head: "What are you afraid of?" We have all seen Zhongyi Hou, although he looks cold, but he is not a gentleman. ”

Ning Xi bit his lip and made a lot of determination before he spoke: "I had a dream before. ”

Hearing this, Ning Miao raised her eyebrows and continued to listen to Ning Xi's story.

"I had a dream before, in the dream I married Shu Heng, but I was not happy, I had no children, no friends, even Shu Heng couldn't say anything good to me, and finally died in a small courtyard, I was afraid, I was afraid that this dream would come true, I really didn't want to live that kind of life, that kind of day was too lonely and lonely."

Ning Miao patted Ning Xi's head and said lightly, "But you haven't married Zhongyi Hou yet." ”

Ning Xi raised his head and looked a little confused, what does this mean?

Ning Miao smiled comfortingly, held Ning Xi's hand, and said, "None of the qiē in your dream has happened yet, do you think that your ability is not enough to change your situation?" And I can tell you very seriously, I don't know if Shu Heng will be good to you, but I know that you won't have no relatives and no friends, I, the big sister, the British Mansion, and even the emperor are your relatives, your dependence, we won't let you be wronged, let alone make you feel lonely, even if you lose a qiē in the end, you still have us. ”

Hearing this, Ning Xi couldn't hold back anymore, she fell on Ning Miao's body and cried, the grievances she suffered in her previous life, and her caution after being reborn, all turned into tears and rushed out of her eyes, Ning Xi knew that no matter how many times she did it again, she was still the timid and cowardly woman she was at the beginning, she was not very smart, she was not strong enough, she didn't want to be a strong county lord, all she had hoped for was someone to shelter her from the wind and rain.

Ning Xi cried for a long time, and didn't stop until she was tired of crying. Ning Miao laughed at her little flower cat and asked her to freshen up.

After crying a lot, Ning Xi's love was restored, and he finally slept well after returning to the yard.

A few days later, Shu Heng came to visit, but the British prince did not give Shu Heng a good face, but the British prince liked Shu Heng very much.

When Ning Xi heard the news, it was already past noon, and he heard that Shu Heng was called into the study of the British Duke as soon as he came, no one knew what the two of them said in the study, even for lunch, the two of them were used in the study, and then the two finally came out, but they ran to the water pavilion next to the plum garden to play chess.

Ning Xi didn't plan to go over, but when the people around her grandfather came, Ning Xi felt that she should have a good talk with Shu Heng, so she went.

When she arrived at the Water Pavilion, Ning Xi found that her eldest brother was also there, she quietly walked to Ning Hua's side and gave him a puzzled look. It's a pity that Ning Hua was immersed in the chess game and didn't pay attention to Ning Xi at all. Ning Xi had no choice but to sit aside and watch the British Duke and Shu Heng play chess boredly. It's a pity that Ning Xi knows six out of seven tricks and doesn't know anything about chess, so he started to doze off after a while.

"Xi'er."

It wasn't until the deep voice of the British Duke sounded that Ning Xi came to his senses and rubbed his eyes: "Is it over?" ”

"It's over, grandfather won a son." It was Ning Hua who answered her.

Ning Xi nodded indifferently: "Do you still want to go down?" She doesn't care who loses or who wins, she only cares if they still play chess, if they continue to play chess, then she can go back to make up for sleep first, obviously the British Duke saw Ning Xi's thoughts, glared at her, I don't know why, her second son and second daughter-in-law are both people who love to play chess, and they have a daughter, but they can't even learn a little fur.

Shaking his head helplessly, the British Duke said to Shu Heng: "The chess skills are good, come and play chess with me more often, alas, there is no one in the British Mansion who plays chess well." ”

Ning Hua was a little speechless, grandfather, it's not that they are not good at chess, but that your chess skills are really bad, you lose, you are not happy, if you win, you have to think that other people's chess skills are not good, do you say that the people in the house still dare to play with you!

"Thanks to the love of the British public, the younger generation will definitely come to play chess with you when they are free."

The British Duke nodded with satisfaction, and then said to Ning Xi: "You send Shaohuan, I still have something to talk about with your eldest brother." ”

Ning Xi came over because she had something to say to Shu Heng, but naturally she would not refuse when she heard the words, so she responded with her mouth full, and only turned to look at Shu Heng after the British Duke left, but saw that the corners of Shu Heng's mouth were looking at her intently, Ning Xi looked away unnaturally.

"What did you do to make my grandfather so happy?"

"I heard that the British public loves calligraphy, painting and Go, and it happens that I have a few ancient pictures in my house, but I am a person who does not know how to appreciate them, so I sent them to the British public appreciation and appreciation."

Ning Xi glanced at Shu Heng with disdain, it was the first time he had heard someone say so nicely about what he liked.

"Ning Xi, I seriously considered what you said that day." Shu Heng changed his words and pulled the topic to the two of them, Ning Xi lowered his eyelids and waited for the following.

Shu Heng was still sitting in the same place, still holding a chess piece in his hand and rubbing it gently, thinking for a moment before continuing: "You are right, I don't know you well enough, and you don't know me either, so I asked the emperor to postpone the marriage, I hope we can use these two years to get to know each other, I hope that when you marry me in two years, you will be willing, not because of the so-called holy decree." ”

After a pause, Shu Heng looked at Ning Xi with paranoia in his eyes: "This is my last compromise, and it is also my last request." ”

Ning Xi took a deep breath, her marriage with Shu Heng was a foregone conclusion, although she resisted this marriage in her heart, but she actually knew that this matter would not change because of her resistance, thinking about Ning Miao's words that day, in fact, she in this life is much better than in the previous life, at least she still has relatives and friends, even if Shu Heng still loses her in this life, she will not die of depression again, close the courtyard door, she can still live her small life in style, and there are Zhongyi Marquis Mansion to raise her and her maids. The most important thing is that Shu Heng, who speaks in a low voice like this, she has never seen it in the previous life, think about what has happened since her rebirth, the Shu Heng in front of her is different from the one in the previous life after all.

After figuring it out, Ning Xi also felt that there was no need to be hypocritical, and nodded, even if he agreed with Shu Heng's words, Shu Heng, who had received Ning Xi's promise, was ecstatic in his heart, and he couldn't control his expression anymore, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Before leaving, Shu Heng handed Ning Xi a small box, and Ning Xi raised his eyebrows: "Another dagger?" ”

The corners of Shu Heng's mouth twitched: "No, it's a gift for you and the ceremony." ”

This really can't be blamed on Ning Xi, who called Shu Heng The dagger she gave her last time was too impressive.

Ning Xi didn't take it, but looked at Shu Heng suspiciously, why, she was so sure that she would accept him. Even the gifts are ready.

Seeing Ning Xi's question, Shu Heng clenched his left hand into a fist, put it to his mouth and coughed a few times: "I'm going to leave the capital for a while, I may not have time to participate in your ceremony, I have always carried this gift with me, and I want to find a suitable opportunity to give it to you in advance." After speaking, the roots of his ears turned a little red.

Ning Xi took it and looked at it, but he didn't mean to open it, Shu Heng's expectant eyes dimmed, Ning Xi just didn't see it, but deliberately asked, "Don't leave yet?" ”

Shu Heng was afraid that he would stay for a long time and make Ning Xi unhappy, so he nodded: "Then you take care of yourself, and I will come to see you when I have time." ”

Ning Xi nodded, Shu Heng turned around and left when he saw this, and when Shu Heng walked away, Ning Xi gently opened the box, and a white hosta was lying quietly in the box, and the crape myrtle flowers carved on it were lifelike, and the corners of Ning Xi's mouth pulled out a chuckle.

If Shu Heng can always be so obedient, it is not impossible for them to be a couple who respect each other.

A month later, Shu Heng left the capital after proposing marriage.
