Shen Yanshu said: "If you just want to leave Xiyan behind, be your intercourse or raise an aunt, I won't agree, I'd rather be poor* than a noble concubine." I just hope she has a good home. ”

Xiao Nansheng said: "Cousin, I really want to marry her. As long as you agree to let her stay, I'll go and tell my father about them right away!"

Shen Yanshu looked at him with such a determined appearance, and knew that he was serious.

After getting along with him these days, Shen Yanshu felt that although Xiao Nansheng was not as stable as his eldest cousin, nor as wise as his third cousin Xiao Jingsheng, he was serious and responsible, responsible, and saw things thoroughly.

She said: "I don't agree to count, I have to let Xiyan agree." ”

"Then I'll go talk to her now!" Xiao Nansheng stood up, and was about to look for Xiyan, but was stopped by Shen Yanshu.

She said, "Wait, you go so rashly and tell her that you are going to marry her." She wouldn't say yes. ”

Xiao Nansheng was puzzled: "Why?"

Shen Yanshu said: "You want to marry her, but can you know her, her past, her family, and what kind of life she wants?"

Xiao Nansheng was stunned, but he didn't think about these problems, he said: "No matter what her past is or what kind of family she has, the person I like is always her, so naturally I won't mind." ”

Shen Yanshu said: "What if she is a fugitive?"

"This ......," Xiao Nansheng was surprised, "It's so possible, Miss Xiyan's temperament is not a person who can make trouble." ”

"If she is, what should you do?" asked Shen Yanshu.

Xiao Nansheng groaned for a while before he said: "If she commits a heinous thing, I will naturally not cover it up, but if she is unintentional or framed, I will still believe her and face it with her." ”

His words relieved Shen Yanshu, turned to look at the green kite, and said, "Go and call Xiyan over." ”

The green kite nodded, but chuckled and trotted to Xiyan's room.

Shen Yanshu continued: "Then I won't hide it from you, in fact, Xiyan was Chen Yanxi, the daughter of General Chen Yi under the command of General Zhenbei, Zhenbei Army was framed for rebellion, and the Chen family was raided, and she escaped by luck and became my maid, even so, are you willing to marry her?"

Xiao Nansheng was quite surprised by Xiyan's identity, but when he thought that Xiyan's martial arts on weekdays were not like ordinary people, but he was not like a maid in his gestures, but like a person with a cultivated family education, he didn't think it was strange.

"Even if this is the case, it is even more impossible to wronged her. Xiao Nansheng said, "Whether the Zhenbei Army rebelled or not is still inconclusive, not to mention that this matter and Xiyan are also innocent, if they retreat because of this, then it will be cowardly." ”

"But if her identity is known, not only her, but even you and the Xiao family will be implicated. Shen Yanshu said lightly.

Xiao Nansheng said: "Since my cousin knows her identity, she still took her in without hesitation, since you can do it, I can do it too." ”

Shen Yanshu's eyes were obscure, she took Xiyan in because she was Qi Yunge, a person who was charged with treason and treason like her.

While the two of them were talking, the green kite came over with Xiyan.

"Miss, Mr. Xiao. Xiyan saluted.

Xiao Nansheng saw her coming, hurriedly stood up and walked to her side: "Miss Xiyan, I have something to say to you." ”

Xiyan was puzzled: "What words?"

Shen Yanshu also got up and said, "Since it's your business, you can decide for yourself." Kite, let's go back to our room. ”

As he spoke, he took the green kite and walked back into the room.

The green kite covered her mouth and chuckled, then turned around and followed Shen Yanshu away.

Xi Yan looked at their departing figures, but she was confused, and turned her head to ask Xiao Nansheng, "What are you looking for me?"

Xiao Nansheng said: "I heard that you will return to Chang'an with your cousin tomorrow, can you stay?"

"I'll go wherever Miss goes. Xiyan said, "Miss has returned to Chang'an, so I naturally have no reason to stay." ”

"Then what if I want to marry you and let you be my wife?" Xiao Nansheng said, "My cousin said it, it depends on what you mean." She also told me about your background, I know that you are the daughter of General Chen, and I can protect you. ”

The night was very quiet, Xiao Nansheng's voice was a little eager, he looked at Chen Yanxi expectantly, waiting for her answer.

Xiyan was stunned, she didn't expect that what Xiao Nansheng wanted to say to her was this.

Xiao Nansheng said that he wanted to marry her.

The lanterns in the courtyard flickered with a dim light, illuminating his sparkling face, as if waiting for a very important answer, and his eyes were shining with anticipation.

She used to have a marriage contract, and the oral marriage contract made by her fathers was a man she had never seen, but she heard that the person was good, and originally said that after the county lord got married, she should also get married, but before that day, the Chen family was destroyed.

She once envied the relationship between the county lord and Pei Yao's childhood sweetheart, but when they completely broke off the relationship, looking at the county lord's sad appearance, and even embarking on the road of no return, she felt that the relationship was really misleading.

However, when she really met her, she was a little moved.

But...... As a descendant of the Zhenbei Army, she still has revenge to avenge.

"Xiao Gongzi...... Can't promise you. Xiyan said with some trembling.

Xiao Nansheng's expectant eyes suddenly darkened, and he grabbed Xi Yan's hand: "Why?"

"I'm grateful that you don't mind my past and even say you want to protect me. But I still have to go back, the Zhenbei army was wronged, so I can't live in the world, I want to avenge them. Xiyan said.

Xiao Nansheng said: "But this does not conflict with us, you can marry me, and you can also take revenge." ”

Xi Yan shook his head: "I can't trap you in unfilial piety and injustice, the road I take is extremely dangerous, if you are not careful, it will be an abyss, and when the time comes, it will not only affect you, but also the entire Xiao family, I can't do such a thing! I know that you are also unwilling to put your family in this danger." ”

Xiao Nansheng looked at her, but he was speechless.

His family didn't know Xiyan's identity, and if he was affected because of this, he was really innocent.

If it was before, Xiao Nansheng would definitely let Xiyan let go of his hatred and live again, but when he really got to know Xiyan, he knew that she couldn't make this decision.

She is a loving and righteous woman, if she knows that the Zhenbei military has wronged her but pretends to be okay and starts her life again, it will only be torment for her.

The two of them were relatively speechless, Xiao Nansheng pondered for a while, and then looked up at Xi Yan and said, "Xi Yan, you just need to tell me, are you willing to be my wife?"

Xiyan was slightly stunned, and said, "If it weren't for the hatred, maybe ......"

"I can wait for you. Xiao Nansheng said, "When you take revenge, we will get married." ”

"But I don't know when I'll get my revenge. Sunset's eyes darkened.

Xiao Nansheng held her hand tightly and said, "Two years, whether you have revenge or not, I will marry you after two years." ”

Looking at Xiao Nansheng's serious appearance, Xi Yan's heart softened.

In this world, in addition to Miss, there are people who care about themselves and wait for themselves, and it feels so good.

She nodded, "Okay." ”

Shen Yanshu didn't stop in the room, holding a book in his hand and flipping around the lamp.

Xiyan pushed the door and walked over to her.

"How?" Shen Yanshu put down the book in his hand and turned his head to look at her with a smile.

Xiyan's face flushed slightly, and he said, "He said that he would wait for me for two years, and he would marry me no matter what happened in two years." ”

Two years?

Shen Yanshu was stunned, and suddenly thought of Yan Qinghan's face, he also said that he would postpone the marriage by two years.

"Okay, then we will set off back to Chang'an tomorrow as usual. ”

Early the next morning, Pei Yining got up early, didn't sleep well all night, turned over and originally wanted to call her maid, only then did she remember that she was in Xiao Mansion.

Yesterday, Mrs. Xiao kindly took her in, but she couldn't rely on it like this, so she got up early.

When the little maid saw that she was awake, she waited for her to wash, and then served breakfast.

"Is it okay if I want to dine with Mrs. Xiao?" asked Pei Yining, she still had a good impression of Mrs. Xiao.

The little maid was in trouble: "This ...... Our lady hasn't gotten up yet. ”

Pei Yining didn't believe it: "It doesn't seem to be too early, why haven't you gotten up yet?"

The little maid's stumbling appearance made Pei Yining feel something strange.

She walked out of the courtyard and walked in the direction of the main courtyard, and saw that the people who came and went seemed to be busy with something, and moved out in large boxes and small boxes.

"There are so many things, are you going to move?" Pei Yining walked over and asked casually.

The little guy said: "This young master and Miss Cousin are going back to Chang'an, and the old lady is reluctant, so naturally she wants to send more things over!"

Pei Yining was stunned for a moment, knowing that the Miss Cousin in their mouth was Shen Yanshu, and Sister Yan Xi, as her maid, naturally wanted to go back.

The two little maids who were originally serving her chased after her and said, "Your Royal Highness the county lord, Madame has instructed you to have a good rest." ”

Pei Yining waved her hand and said, "It's okay, I'm already much better, go back now and thank Mrs. Xiao on my behalf." ”

The two little maids looked at each other, and before they could react, Pei Yining had already walked out.

Old Madam Xiao felt that she couldn't treat Shen Yan'an and Shen Yanshu badly, knowing that they were going to take the waterway, so she asked people to pack a lot of things and bring them back.

Pei Yining originally wanted to walk over and talk to Shen Yanshu directly, but when he saw the secret guard following him not far away, he stopped, thought for a moment, and then walked into a maid's room, and soon changed into a maid's clothes and walked out of the back door, and quietly followed Shen Yanshu's team.
