After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Chapter 581 I don't want to embarrass her

Xiao Qingning hurried forward to greet her, "Fourth sister, how come you have time to come and see me today?"

"I was busy at the wedding banquet yesterday and didn't get to talk to you. Today, my sixth brother and his wife came to the palace to pay respects, and my mother asked me to come with them to meet them. I came to the palace early on purpose because I wanted to come and see you."

Xiao Qingning smiled when he heard this and pulled Xiao Qingying to sit down.

"Fourth sister, you came at the right time. I just happened to have something to trouble you with."

Xiao Qingying smiled indifferently, "Why are you being so polite to me? Just tell me what you want to say."

Xiao Qingning felt warm at heart when he heard this, and told Xiao Qingying everything that had happened in the past few days.

"It's been so long since we last spoke to each other, how come so many things happened? Ning'er, you've really been going through a lot of emotional fluctuations these days."

Xiao Qingning sighed when she heard this, "Yes, I had been immersed in the sweetness of being with Zhehao, thinking that I would soon be happy. Who would have thought that God couldn't bear to see me living such a comfortable life, and gave me a bolt from the blue."

Xiao Qingying comforted him, "Ning'er, don't be so pessimistic. Isn't there still room for improvement? According to what you said, Ye Hengjing doesn't really care who he marries. As long as the marriage is not settled, we still have a chance."

Xiao Qingning was still not optimistic. "That being said, this is just wishful thinking on our part. Ye Hengjing is not a good person to talk to. I'm afraid he won't give in easily. Besides, my sixth brother went through the same thing. Even if he didn't want to, he still accepted it in the end."

Xiao Qingying also sighed when this matter was mentioned. "Sixth brother's situation is still different from yours. After all, he has no lover. In order not to embarrass father, he compromised. Ning'er, don't think too much for now. There will always be a way to solve it. I will accompany you to fifth brother's place later, and we will discuss countermeasures together."

Xiao Qingning nodded after hearing this, "Okay, thank you, Fourth Sister."

Xiao Qingning went with Xiao Qingying to Concubine Chen Hui's palace to meet Xiao Jingheng and Xu Mengfei. Xu Mengfei was more cautious in her speech today, but she still couldn't hide her straightforward nature and always said shocking things.

The scene was a little awkward at first, but later everyone realized that Xu Mengfei had no ill intentions at all and was just being naive and straightforward, so the atmosphere eased a lot.

At first, they were not used to Xu Mengfei's way of speaking, but after getting to know her, they found that Xu Mengfei was actually quite cute, just a simple-minded little girl.

Concubine Chen Hui was a little worried at first. After all, Xu Mengfei was a princess from another country. She might have other intentions in coming here for the marriage, so she had to be more careful around her son all day long.

But after actually meeting Xu Mengfei today, Concubine Chen Hui felt much more relieved.

She had seen all kinds of people in the harem. At first glance, Xu Mengfei was a simple child without any scheming. Her performance at the emperor's birthday banquet that day was a true expression of her true feelings and was not a disguise at all.

How could such a simple-minded child have any bad intentions? Concubine Chen Hui was immediately relieved.

After this time together, Xiao Qingying and Xiao Qingning's impression of Xu Mengfei changed a lot, and they had a very pleasant conversation.

"Mother, my second brother is leaving today, and I want to say goodbye to him. If you don't mind my noise, I will come back another day to talk to you."

Concubine Chen Hui smiled when she heard this, "Okay, let Heng'er go with you. Good boy, I like you very much. Come often when you are free in the future. I welcome you anytime."

Xu Mengfei was delighted when she heard that, and hurriedly said, "Yes, thank you, mother. I will take my leave now. Sister Four and Sister Five, I am very happy chatting with you today. We will chat again next time if there is a chance."

After the two left, Xiao Qingying and Xiao Qingning also said goodbye to Concubine Chen Hui.

Xiao Qingying asked someone to tell Zhou Menglin, and then took Xiao Qingning straight to Prince Chen's Mansion.

Wu'anhou Mansion

Li Zhehao had also learned about this from Li Yaxuan, and the brother and sister were gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Li Yaxuan was so anxious at the moment, "Second brother, what should we do now? Can you please say something?"

Li Zhehao looked at a loss and said, "Xuan'er, calm down first and stop walking around here. You're making my eyes dizzy."

"How can I stay calm now? If I don't come up with a solution, Sister Ning'er will have to marry."

Li Zhehao sighed when he heard this, "Even His Majesty would have a headache with such a major event as the marriage between the two countries. There is no way we can solve it."

Seeing her second brother's negative look, Li Yaxuan said helplessly, "This matter is very difficult, but we can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to find a way to do something and give it a try. Sister Ning'er has been in a bad mood since she learned about this yesterday. She must be feeling very bad now. Even if we can't solve it, at least you can go see her and comfort her."

Li Zhehao shook his head. "I thought about this all night. Ning'er is the one who suffers the most. On one side is her father and the country, and on the other side is me. She is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma. If I go to her again at this time, it will definitely increase her pressure. I don't want to make it difficult for her."

"Brother, are you thinking too much? Sister Ning'er's wishes are crystal clear. She would never want to marry. It has been so hard for the two of you to get to where you are today. How could she possibly give up the relationship between you and her?"

Li Zhehao sighed and patiently explained, "Xuan'er, it's not that I think too much, but you think this matter is too simple. Ning'er is not an ordinary woman. She is the princess of the Great Qi Kingdom. She shoulders a heavy responsibility. Although the emperor should be reluctant to let her go to marry, this is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries and must be handled with caution. Otherwise, it will rise to an issue between countries, not as simple as an ordinary marriage."

After hearing what her second brother said, Li Yaxuan finally understood that the matter was so complicated and these were issues she had never considered before.

In her little world, there was only the simplest matter of liking or not, and she had never thought that a person's marriage could involve so many complicated issues.

Fortunately, she tried to persuade Ye Hengjing yesterday as if it was a matter of course, but in the end it turned out that she thought too simply.

"This... I'm sorry, second brother, I didn't know this was so complicated. I was blaming you for not being in a hurry at all."

Li Zhehao soothed her softly, "Xuan'er, you don't have to blame yourself. You have been at home all these years and have never seen the outside world. It is normal that you don't know these things. It's just that I really don't know what else I can do to save the relationship between Ning'er and me."
