"Sister, why do you ask that?" Shen Yunlan frowned when he heard this, and slowly spoke: "I am willing to take care of Xiuyan for the rest of my life and protect her for a stable and smooth life, isn't this still love?" ”

"That's not enough." Shen Nianzhen shook his head, and then said seriously: "In the face of any girl, you can do it, but Xiuyan is different, if she marries you, she will definitely provoke the queen mother, as well as Princess Zhaohua, and even His Majesty's dissatisfaction, you must have the determination to protect her with your life and love her, before you can marry her, otherwise, you will withdraw from the marriage and marry another girl again." “

Her tone was very sincere.

Shen Yunlan understood what she meant, and couldn't help but be funny and helpless, she restrained her expression at the moment, looked at Shen Nianzhen seriously, and said word by word: "Don't worry, I love Xiuyan, and I am willing to give my life for her, even if I provoke His Majesty and the Queen in the future, I will definitely marry her!" And will protect her under his wing, and will never let her be harmed! ：”

"It's not just Sister Xiuyan, but also the people of the Zhu family." Shen Nianzhen said: "That's all her family, if something happens, Sister Xiuyan will definitely be sad." ”

"Nianzhen, Yunlan is your brother, how can I listen to you, as if Xiuyan is your relative." Liao Fangru said jokingly on the side.

"It's all relatives." Shen Nianzhen replied.

This made everyone in the room laugh, and Mrs. Shen said jokingly: "No matter what others say, Nian really recognized Xiuyan's sister-in-law, good, good." ”

Shen Nianzhen's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this: "Grandmother, do you mean, do you agree with your granddaughter to go to see Sister Xiuyan?" “

"This matter still depends on your eldest brother's intentions." Old Mrs. Shen sighed when she heard this, and said, "The Zhu family wants to withdraw from their relatives, it seems that they have already made up their minds, and it is not easy to do!" ”

"I'll go with my sister." Shen Yunlan said in a deep voice: "I believe they will change their minds." ”

"It's fine." Old Lady Shen thought for a moment and said.

……

The carriage stopped in front of the Wenchang Mansion.

Shen Yunlan got out of the carriage first, and then stretched out his hand to support Shen Nianzhen, as soon as the two brothers and sisters stood at the gate of the Zhu family, they saw an old man who looked like a steward coming out of the gate, and stepped forward to respectfully greet him: "The old slave has seen the second princess, and I have seen the little Shen commander!" If the two of you are here for marriage, then please go back! ”

"We haven't seen the old lady yet, we haven't seen Sister Xiuyan, how can we go back?" Shen Nianzhen was immediately anxious when he heard this.

This situation was different from what she expected, the Zhu family did not block the door and prevent them from entering, and politely came to ask for peace, but they didn't even let them speak, so they sent them away.

"Second princess, my young lady is sick and can't see guests." The old man's attitude is still tough.

Shen Nianzhen was taken aback, and involuntarily asked, "Sister Zhu is sick?" Then we should go in and have a look! ”

"I'm sorry, my young lady doesn't want to see outsiders today, please forgive me." The old man's attitude was still respectful, but his attitude was still tough, and there was no room for change.

Shen Nian really never thought that with her current status as the second princess, she would be able to eat behind closed doors.

When Shen Yunlan came to visit before, what did he say and do?

She turned her head to look at him.

I saw that Shen Yunlan's face was pale, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word.

"Second princess, Commander Xiao Shen, please." The old man nodded, turned around and returned to the gate of Wenchangbo's Mansion, and slowly closed the gate.

"Wait! I have more to say! Shen Nianzhen lifted her skirt and was about to chase after her, but was stopped by Shen Yunlan all of a sudden: "Don't go." “

"Big brother! It's your business! How can you not care? ”

Shen Nian was really angry: "When you were at home before, what did you tell me?" Yes? ”

"Nian Zhen, we are different from Zhaohua." Shen Yunlan frowned tightly, and said gloomily: "What can you do if you chase after it?" Blocking the door and waiting for the people inside to come out? You might as well kill me. ”

His lips trembled slightly as he spoke.

It can be seen how much Princess Zhaohua's previous behavior stimulated him.

Shen Nian really saw it, and he was very distressed, so he sighed at the moment and said, "Then since this is the case, let's go back." ”

An unspeakable loss in my heart.

Shen Yunlan didn't answer, but raised his head and quietly looked in the direction of Wenchangbo's Mansion, not knowing what he was thinking.

For this relationship, he is reluctant, right?

Shen Nianzhen imagined what would happen if the people facing the scene in front of her today were her and Rong Chen?

As soon as the thought came to her, she felt that her nervous breathing was a little difficult.

There is only one firm thought in her heart, that is, no matter what, the two of them must be together, as long as Rong Chen still loves her and is willing to marry her, she will marry him at all costs!

Definitely not going to give up because of this inexplicable question!

"I'm going to go to the palace." But at this moment, Shen Yunlan suddenly spoke in a deep voice.

Shen Nianzhen turned his head and saw the firmness on his face.

Her heart jumped, and she couldn't help asking, "Big brother, what are you doing in the palace?" Isn't it going to ......?"

What can Shen Yunlan do when he enters the palace at this time? There is only one possibility, and that is to ask the emperor to grant him a marriage to Zhu Xiuyan.

In this way, the Zhu family has no reason to object, and Princess Zhaohua can only die.

It would be a happy outcome for all.

It's just that, as a forced acceptance of Wenchangbo's mansion, he may feel a little aggrieved.

Shen Yunlan, does he really want to do this?

"Yes, I am going to enter the palace to beg Your Majesty." Shen Yunlan nodded lightly at her, with an extraordinarily resolute expression: "I love Xiuyan, I don't want to give up!" “

This is her good big brother! Sure enough, even the choice is exactly the same as hers.

When Shen Nianzhen heard this, she couldn't help but feel excited in her heart, she nodded, looked at Shen Yunlan with satisfaction, and said, "Okay, then you can go and ......."

Before the words fell, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly approached on the long street.

Shen Nianzhen turned his head to take a look, and saw a large group of palace people rushing closer, led by a bright yellow scroll in his hand, simply turned over and dismounted, and walked to the door of Wenchangbo's mansion: "Your Majesty has an order, Wenchangbo's mansion listens to the order!" ”

It's actually a holy decree!

Shen Nianzhen and Shen Yunlan were both taken aback, and the two of them hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Gonggong Zhang, what kind of holy decree is it?" “

Father-in-law Zhang turned his head and saw that it was Shen Nianzhen's brother and sister, and a smile suddenly appeared on his wrinkled old face, and he nodded when he heard the words: "It's okay if you are here, then let's listen together!" The old slave of the province has to go to the Shen family again. ”

"Father-in-law, does this matter have anything to do with my brother?" Shen Nianzhen was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Yes! The marriage decree is not related to the commander of Xiao Shen. Gonggong Zhang said with a smile when he heard this.

As soon as the word marriage fell into his ears, Shen Nianzhen and Shen Yunlan glanced at each other, both of them saw the ecstasy in each other's eyes, Shen Yunlan was stunned with joy, and the whole person stood there at a loss, as if he was stiff.

"Big brother, big brother, kneel down and take the order." It was Shen Nianzhen who reached out and tugged at his sleeve and reminded.

Shen Yunlan reacted at this time, turned his head to look, and found that the gate of Wen Changbo's mansion, which had just been closed, had been opened, and Wen Changbo's family, large and small, knelt at the door.

He immediately walked over and knelt down at the front.

When Mrs. Zhu saw him, her expression was obviously displeased, but in front of the holy purpose, she couldn't say anything, just swallowed the grievances in her heart aggrievedly, and knelt there to accept the order.

When the eunuch saw that everyone had arrived, he coughed lightly, looked around, and asked, "Where is Miss Zhu?" Where is she? “

In the crowd, Zhu Xiuyan, who was supported by three or two maids, immediately raised her head and replied, "The little girl is here." ”

Her face was unusually pale, and her expression was a little overwhelmed.

Judging from Shen Nianzhen's experience, she was indeed sick in the past two days, and the Zhu family did not lie about this.

Zhu Xiuyan had too many things hidden in her heart, and she was depressed, so she fell ill.

"Since Miss Zhu is sick, don't come forward." Gonggong Zhang nodded, lightly his throat, and then unfolded the holy decree and said: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict ......"

Shen Yunlan's dream came true, and the emperor really issued a decree to marry Zhu Xiuyan to him.

But the problem is that Shen Yunlan didn't go to the palace to ask the emperor!

Could it be that the emperor and his old man were far away in the palace and heard about Shen Yunlan's divorce, so he issued a holy decree to appease the Zhu family?

Shen Nian was really cranky, Gonggong Zhang had already finished reading the holy decree, stepped forward, and handed the holy decree to Shen Yunlan, who was kneeling, and Zhu Xiuyan.

"Your Majesty gives you marriage, what a blessing it is! Mrs. Zhu, why do you still look unhappy? Grandpa Zhang asked with a smile.

"The courtiers don't dare."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhu hurriedly bowed her head and said.

Gonggong Zhang did not continue to investigate, and said a lot of auspicious words with a smile, took the reward money from Shen Yunlan and the Zhu family, and left with someone.

In front of the gate of the Zhu family, in addition to the people watching the excitement, it was Shen Nianzhen's brothers and sisters who faced the Zhu family.

Just now, the Zhu family ruthlessly closed the door to their brothers and sisters, clamoring to withdraw from the marriage, but they didn't expect that the next moment, the holy decree of marriage would come.

So this scene is a little bit ...... Embarrassed.

It was so embarrassing that both sides didn't know how to open their mouths to break the deadlock.

In the end, Shen Nianzhen stepped forward with a smile, personally stretched out his hand to help Mrs. Zhu, and said without any worries: "Your Majesty gives you a marriage, this is a blessing!" Nian Zhen is here to congratulate Mrs. Zhu! Of course, there is Sister Shen! ”

"Just now, the old man was not well entertained, and he neglected the two of them, so please don't worry about it."

Mrs. Zhu was supported by Shen Nianzhen, she was uncomfortable, and said with great embarrassment: "Now that we are a family, please come into the house and have a cup of tea." ”

Now that the holy decree has been issued, everything is a foregone conclusion, no one dares to disobey the emperor's holy decree, Mrs. Zhu is a smart person, she naturally will not treat Shen Nianzhen's brothers and sisters with her previous attitude.

No matter how this marriage decree came about, since it has become a fact, they have no choice but to face it.

Although I can't stop feeling aggrieved in my heart.

"Okay."

Shen Nianzhen smiled and agreed.

Immediately, a group of people happily entered the house with the holy decree, of course, this was just the picture that Shen Nianzhen saw, where she didn't see it, Mrs. Zhu's eyes showed a trace of loss and helplessness.

Shen Yunlan followed Mrs. Zhu's side, and her eyes looked at Zhu Xiuyan who was left behind from time to time, but when she entered the mansion, the maid who was supporting Zhu Xiuyan suddenly stumbled her foot and fell to the ground

So she didn't die, she still grabbed Zhu Xiuyan's arm and threw her down the steps along with another maid......

"Be careful!"

At the critical moment, Shen Yunlan rushed over, quickly stretched out his arm, and when Zhu Xiuyan was about to fall to the ground, Kankan supported her and avoided the fall.

"Oops...... "The maid with only her feet rolled all the way down the steps, and she almost fainted.

"Are you alright?" Shen Yunlan held Zhu Xiuyan's hand and asked with concern on his face.

Zhu Xiuyan held the Ming Huang Holy Decree with one hand, and the other hand was held by him, the whole person was still in shock, and when she came into contact with Shen Yunlan's concerned gaze, her face immediately turned red, and she immediately shook off his hand, turned her head and ran towards her grandmother, and shouted aggrievedly: "Grandmother!" ”

The scene that just happened was all seen by Mrs. Zhu.

She saw that her favorite granddaughter was about to fall, and when she saw that everyone couldn't react, only Shen Yunlanfei, who was paying attention to her all the time, stepped forward and saved her.

This scene suddenly reminded her of the previous scene on Mount Mochizuki......

If it weren't for Shen Yunlan to save her, Xiuyan would have been buried under the cliff long ago.

That's it.

Old Madam Zhu let out a long sigh, looking at Shen Yunlan's eyes full of tenderness, in the end, she accepted him as her grandson-in-law.

As for the future—

Who can say what will happen in the future? No matter what, Shen Yunlan is so maintained, Xiuyan is absolutely impossible to suffer.

As for the empress and Princess Zhaohua embarrassing the Zhu family in the future - hmph, is it really their Yongchang Bofu to be slaughtered?

The rabbit is in a hurry and bites!

……

It wasn't until dark that the Shen Nianzhen brothers and sisters returned to the Shen family.

In just one day, the emperor's marriage for the Shen family and the Zhu family spread throughout Shangjing, causing the people to talk about it.

"Now I'm relieved!" When Old Madam Shen heard about this, she breathed a long sigh of relief.

Then, she raised her eyes with some confusion and glanced at her grandson-in-law Rong Chen, who was sitting opposite her, and asked, "Your Highness, is this matter ...... Did you go and ask Your Majesty? ”

"Not really." Rong Chen shook his head when he heard this: "The plan of this palace is that if Nianzhen and his eldest brother return today, they will enter the palace tomorrow to ask the emperor for marriage, and no one expected that the holy decree would come down so soon." “

"Really? That's weird. Old Lady Shen nodded.

Then he turned his head to look outside, and asked Mama Zhou, "The young master and the young lady haven't come back yet?" ”

"Old lady, now that the holy decree has been issued, the two of them were probably left behind by the Yongchang Mansion, and they will probably come back at dinner." Mama Zhou smiled when she heard this: "Today is really a festive day, the old slave went to the kitchen and ordered to prepare a few more dishes!" ”

"Okay, okay, okay, you go quickly." Old Lady Shen nodded again and again when she heard this.

His expression was full of joy.

It's been a great day.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mama Zhou's words to come back, and Shen Nianzhen's brothers and sisters came back, and they happened to meet Shen Chong at the door, and the family of three returned to Chunhui Courtyard and exchanged greetings with everyone.

"Yunlan, your marriage has finally been decided, and I am also relieved." In the flower hall, there was a heavy face of relief.

Shen Yunlan didn't know how many times he had heard this sentence today, but every time he heard it, he smiled, he didn't know how happy he was, and nodded with a smile when he heard the words: "Dad, don't worry, I will treat Xiuyan well in the future, and I will definitely not disappoint the people of Yongchang Bofu!" ”

"Good! Have a backbone! This is my good son! Shen Zhong laughed when he heard this.

It's all men who gather together, they like to drink, they are all close relatives, and there is no need to be so taboo, the whole family sat around Mrs. Shen's round table of briar, smiling one by one, making Mrs. Shen happy as if she was so happy, she was not so happy during the New Year!

Rong Chen was also very happy.

Shen Yunlan's marriage is resolved, which means that he and Shen Nianzhen can return to their mansions tomorrow.

The Shen family is not bad, it's just that all his confidential documents, as well as important matters to dispose of, are all in the study, and there are many eyes and inconveniences in the Shen family.

The Shen family is happy here, but the Jiang family is tense.

Jiang Ling stood at the door of his room, stunned and looked at the messy room as if he had been robbed, and then looked at Princess Zhaohua standing in the room, only to see that she was holding a beauty vase in each hand, and glared at him viciously: "Don't come here!" Don't think that if Princess Ben marries you, you can do whatever you want! ”

Jiang Ling: "......"

Thinking of the scene when the woman put a dagger against her chest on the night of the candle in the cave room, viciously forcing herself to leave, he laughed suspiciously: "Princess, do you think that the prince of the Sakura Kingdom was afraid of you yesterday?" Your dagger has been taken away by the maidservant, do you think you can stop Young Master Ben by holding a vase? Since you and I are husband and wife, you should bear the corresponding responsibilities! ”

After speaking, he raised his feet and walked towards Princess Zhaohua regardless of it.

As he walked, he reached out and slowly untied the belt around his waist and threw it to the ground.

Princess Zhaohua suddenly became furious, glared at Jiang Ling as if he was the most disgusting man in the whole world, and said in disgust: "You give me out!" Otherwise I'm really going to kill someone! ”

"Okay, you kill me, it's also romantic to die under the peony flower." Jiang Ling laughed, and smiled indifferently: "I want to see if you have that ability." ”

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly reached out and snatched the vase from her hand.
