The prince disliked her, and the legitimate daughter was reborn and married to the regent

Yun Nian spent the three days in her own yard. She hid in her room, saying she was afraid of contracting infectious diseases, and did not see anyone.

In the middle, Zuo Mingyuan came by, threw down a candied haws with a sullen face, and left without saying a word.

I don't know when Xiyu came back. If Yun Nian hadn't seen the Hanmei tree leaning against the bedside, she would have almost ignored him.

"Xiyu."

Yun Nian called softly. She knew that the other person must be beside her. With just one word, he would appear. At least, that was the case now.

The window frame made a sound, and her eyes flashed. In front of her appeared a cold man with his hair tied up high, wearing a black suit, with his hands folded, and a dark green whip wrapped around his waist, like a snake.

Yun Nian tried hard not to let her eyes stay on his waist, and her gaze drifted to his collar. She raised her head slightly, and then she could see his pursed lips, which were full of mean coldness.

"Why didn't you tell me you were back? Where did you go?"

Perhaps because he was afraid that she would be too tired to look up, Xiyu consciously bent his knees and lowered his eyes to look at her.

"You don't need me to protect you. Isn't Zuo Mingyuan very powerful?"

He was still dissatisfied with Yun Nian for listening to others and keeping him away.

Yun Nian suddenly remembered that she and Zuo Mingyuan should have gone to kidnap the son of an official a few days ago. Of course, Zuo Mingyuan was responsible for kidnapping, and she was responsible for cheering and encouraging.

At that time, she felt that Xiyu was old-fashioned and serious, even more awkward than her brother, so she didn't let him follow her. Who knew that she would be so angry until now?

Xiyu was rarely angry with her, but that changed after Yunjiao appeared, and she had no clue what to do.

She bought Xiyu ten years ago, when she was only five years old. Seeing how pretty Xiyu looked in the cage, she begged her brother to buy her.

The Prime Minister's Mansion does not keep idle people, and Daddy thinks that she lacks a martial arts expert, so he lets her learn martial arts from General Zuo. However, he and Zuo Mingyuan do not like each other, and Yun Nian often has to mediate between them.

He was probably tired of a master like her and wanted to find a better one, so he couldn't wait to go to Yun Jiao's side and become her helper.

"I never kept your indenture."

Yun Nian suddenly spoke, and Xiyu's eyes became puzzled, but not surprised.

"I know, what's wrong?"

"So if you want to leave, you can leave at any time. Of course, if you want to change to a better master, you can also tell me."

Rather than making him angry later, it would be better to make it clear now. She would never force anyone to stay by her side again.

But the secret guard in front of him suddenly frowned.

"Are you tired of me? Yes, you have General Zuo Mingyuan to play with you, so why do you need me? I am just a slave you bought, lowly and humble. Is that what you think?"

Xiyu said this aggressively. He stood up straight, and all the pressure was revealed.

Yun Nian turned her head anxiously. Did she say something wrong again? She always messed up everything, always did things badly, and always made others dislike her.

"I didn't mean that. You know I treat you as a friend."

"Then tell me, between me and Zuo Mingyuan, who do you choose?"

Why ask her such a difficult question? If possible, she doesn't want to choose either.

But looking at Xiyu's cold eyes, she still blinked and said against her conscience,

"You, choose you."

Xiyu's expression immediately softened, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

"That's enough, my master. You are enough. If it's not you, no one else can do it. Just remember this and don't push me to others casually."

fraud,

She nodded gently, but there was no ripple in her pupils.

They are all liars. They will not protect her forever and will not love her forever. When he meets Yun Jiao, everything will change.

Dongxue called softly outside the door: "Miss, the time is coming."

"I understand. Come in."

She raised her voice and motioned Xiyu to leave. When the four maids came in, she was the only one in the room.

"Hurry up, everyone, hurry up, don't delay, today is the young lady's important day."

Chunyu directed Yun Nian to bathe and change clothes.

She was being pulled around like a puppet, lowering her head and forcing a wry smile.

The coming-of-age ceremony at the age of fifteen was the beginning of her pain and the beginning of all her nightmares.

However, in this life, she will be peaceful and quiet, and will never care about those external things again.

The Prime Minister and his wife have gone to greet Lady Liu and ask her to present a marriage tiara to their beloved daughter Yun Nian. All the guests have also arrived and have been properly seated, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Yun Nian sat on one side, and Mrs. Liu recited the poem. She listened to it word by word, and lowered her head slightly to let her put on the hairpin for her.

Then he faced his parents, faced the heaven and earth, and bowed slowly.

The whole house is filled with the fragrance of hibiscus flowers, which are eagerly blooming even in winter. Just three days ago, the beautiful crabapple flowers were still competing for beauty. They never expected that they would be replaced so soon, right?

She curled her eyes and laughed at herself for not being able to recognize the situation in her previous life. She looked at Furong who was in the room and questioned her parents.

They said Yunjiao liked it.

It turns out that Yunjiao likes it.

So the fifteen-year-old crabapple tree can be replaced at will, so at Yun Nian's coming-of-age ceremony, the hibiscus that Yun Jiao liked was in full bloom.

She lost her temper out of anger and offended Lady Liu, which also displeased her parents. From then on, rumors spread in the market that she was a spoiled and unruly woman, unfilial and unrighteous. People would probably applaud her for ending up in such a miserable situation. Who would feel sad for her?

The musicians were still playing, and the soft, ethereal, and solemn music echoed among the silent crowd. When the ceremony was over, she raised her head and stood up with the help of her maid.

Looking back, I realize that I was so sentimental without realizing it.

Yun Jiao also congratulated her tenderly, saying in a sad voice, "Sister, how lucky it is to have such a distinguished lady to give her a hairpin ceremony."

In her previous life, she hadn't had time to get to this point, and her coming-of-age ceremony had been ruined by herself, so Yun Nian hadn't expected her to say this.

Mrs. Liu paused and turned to look at the Prime Minister. He was a little embarrassed, but still spoke.

"Madam, how about giving Jiaojiao a hairpin? Her birthday is in two months."

"But I have already given Sisi a hairpin, how can I ..."

"Sisi has it, Jiaojiao should have it too. I, Yunfang, never favor anyone. Madam, please have mercy on her. She has had a miserable life since she was a child, and this is the only coming-of-age ceremony she has ever had."

But Yun Nian only had one coming-of-age ceremony. How could her father put her face aside by asking her like this? Could it be that he couldn't even wait to talk to her in private?

She thought she would never feel heartache again, but she was still so sad. Forget it, she should have known this earlier.

Yun Nian tried to keep himself alert, but there was a thunderous sound behind him.

"Isn't this against etiquette? Prime Minister."

The most honorable regent of Da'an Kingdom, Wei Qingjue strode in.
