In the middle of the night, a cool breeze blew in from the window.

Shen Mi sat in front of the window and reached out to pick up a chess piece.

The black piece in his hand fell, and the night gradually darkened.

She put down the chess piece, stood up from the chair and walked towards the bed.

After taking a few steps, the north window was pushed open with a creak.

A snow-white tiger came in through the window, walked up to her and rubbed her skirt.

"Bai Ze, I haven't seen you for a long time."

Shen Mi squatted down, hugged Bai Ze in his arms, and touched his furry ears.

After touching it for a while, a black figure suddenly came in.

She looked up and saw a man in black walking in from the night.

The corners of the man's lips curled up slightly, and he smiled, his eyes fixed on her.

"Fourth Master."

Shen Mi quickly stood up, walked over slowly, and met his deep eyes.

"Fourth Master, why are you here?"

Murong Che raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"I haven't seen you for two months, and you don't miss me at all."

"You signed my marriage certificate, entered my royal family tree, and then completely forgot about me."

"He also drank and enjoyed himself with others."

Shen Mi pursed her lips, walked over slowly, and seeing his cold expression, she reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

"The Fourth Master is not busy with military affairs, and I have too many things to do at home."

Murong Che lowered his eyes and looked at her, then reached out and pinched her chin.

"The Shen family has too many things to do. You should also think of me a little bit."

Looking at Murong Che's expression, Shen Mi stood on tiptoe and pecked Murong Che's lips lightly.

"So, the Fourth Master won't be angry anymore?"

The girl's soft voice and subtle breathing sound fell into Murong Che's ears. He chuckled: "Huh, now you have learned how to coax a man?"

"That's not the way to coax a man."

He withdrew his hand, sat down on the chair, and looked at her with deep eyes.

"I came here today because I have something important to tell you."

Shen Mi didn't know what Murong Che wanted, so she walked over slowly.

Murong Che reached out carefully, took her hand and looked at her carefully.

"In a few days, the Chaoyang Princess's mansion will host a banquet, and the noble families of Yanjing City, as well as the young masters, young ladies and their wives will be invited to attend."

“I will go there then.”

"I will be in the northernmost room in the North Courtyard of Princess Chaoyang's mansion. Come by then. I have something to give you."

Shen Mi frowned. Princess Chaoyang's banquet?

She did remember that in her previous life, the prince met her at Princess Chaoyang's mansion and said he wanted to marry her.

That proves that the Crown Prince and Shen Shu will also go, and Old Madam Shen will also go, and the Zhang family will also go.

She leaned in Murong Che's arms and asked in a low voice: "Fourth Master, what do you want to give me?"

Murong Che lowered his eyes and looked at her. His gaze was no longer as cold as before, but instead had a hint of tenderness.

"You and I have a marriage certificate, and I have also written your name into the royal jade disc. After all, you belong to our Murong family."

"Your father has just passed away. You and I certainly cannot worship heaven and earth."

"When you come, you will know what I will give you."

Seeing that Murong Che was acting mysterious, Shen Mi didn't ask any more questions.

The marriage certificate was signed between the two of them, her name was written on the royal jade disc, and they had sex in the Ningyuan Marquis's mansion...

Now, there is only one person who can propose marriage.

Shen Mi nodded.

"Yes, I will go."

After getting Shen Mi's reply, Murong Che slowly stood up.

This is Shen Mi's boudoir, and it is not appropriate for him to stay here for long.

"Now, it's getting late, I'll go back and take care of some military affairs."

"Shen Mi." Murong Che reached out from behind her and held her in his arms.

The two of them intertwined their auras, and he spoke in a magnetic voice: "The handsome young man who drank with you today has been looking at you."

Shen Mi frowned slightly. Could this handsome young man Murong Che was talking about be Su Xun? How did he know?

Shen Mi whispered, "So, what does the Fourth Master want? The Fourth Master has been monitoring me."

Murong Che leaned over and whispered in her ear, full of malice.

"So, I want to dig out his eyes and feed them to the dogs."

When the cold and evil voice came out, Shen Mi's face froze. Murong Che said this, but it didn't mean he wouldn't do it.

She glanced at him sideways and saw the evil look in his eyes.

"Fourth Master, could you please not be like this... He was just looking, he didn't..."

The man behind her leaned over and put his lips close to hers, then, like a puppy, he started to play with her red earlobe.

"Don't let him have any thoughts that he shouldn't have."

"Otherwise, I will kill him."

His voice was hoarse: "You are so seductive, I can't bear to leave."

"This is your boudoir. For your reputation, I cannot stay here any longer."

"I'll wait for you at Princess Chaoyang's residence."

Shen Mi pursed her lips and nodded, looking at the man's back disappearing into the night, feeling dazed for a moment.

Murong Che made her feel a little scary.

However, if she could use Princess Chaoyang's banquet to expose the fact that Shen Shu was not innocent.

Zhang Huaian can also take the opportunity to cancel the engagement, so that Ajie and Zhang Huaian can be together.

This also made Lin's heart completely dead. The engagement with the Zhang family was completely off, so she would not think of any way to plot against Shen Li.

The candle in the room went out and Shen Mi went to bed to rest.

The next day, it was just dawn.

There were hurried footsteps heard outside early in the morning.

"Second Miss, the old lady asked us to get up early because we have to go up the mountain to pray for the baby in the first lady's belly today."

Shen Mi slowly opened her eyes and heard these words.

She sat up and looked at the dim light outside, feeling bored.

The fetus in Lin's belly was originally an illegitimate child, and she had to drag the entire Shen family to the mountain to pray for blessings.

Praying for blessings is fake, harming people is real.

She said coldly: "I know, I'll get up now."

After a while, several carriages were ready in front of the Shen Mansion.

Lin was supported by several maids and servants and sat in the carriage.

Not long after, Old Madam Shen also came out of the house. When she saw Lin's belly, she was so worried that she ran over quickly.

"You, please go slower. This child is Yuan'er's last legitimate son."

Lin smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, old lady. I have used all the manpower and supplements that you sent to the yard to grow these days."

"I will definitely give birth to a big fat boy for the Shen family."

Lin said this with an unstoppable smile on her face.

Shen Mi was sitting in the carriage and almost laughed out of anger. She drew aside the curtain and saw Shen Shu looking at her with a weird look.

That look carried a sense of superiority and sarcasm.

Shen Mi knew that Shen Shu had been hanging out with the prince all day these days and of course didn't care about her.

Shen Mi was not interested in the prince.

She lowered the carriage curtain and looked at Shen Mi beside her.

"Sister, do you want to go and pray?"

Shen Li said: "Mi'er, I dreamed of my mother again recently, so I naturally wanted to pray for her."

Shen Mi stretched out her hand and saw that Shen Li's fingers were much better.

The stitches have been removed after three months, but unfortunately my fingers are not as beautiful as before.

She reached out and held Shen Li's wrist, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'm afraid I can't go to pray today."

"Mi'er will take you there some other day."

Shen Li was slightly startled, not knowing what Shen Mi meant.

"Can't go? Why?"

Shen Mi murmured, "I just can't go anyway."

At this moment, in another carriage, Lin was sitting inside, stroking her belly with her hand, and looking at Dongxiang beside her.

"Kiyomizu Temple, is everything ready?"

Dong Xiang pursed her lips and said, "Madam, everything is ready. We are waiting for tonight."

Lin smiled knowingly, "That's good. Li'er is now a grown-up girl, and she has been staying in the Shen family and has not yet married."

She lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage had not left yet, so she asked, "What happened? Why isn't it leaving yet?"

She looked around but did not see Wang and her son.

"This Yin Shuang is the same. Why are you dragging your feet on such an important matter today? Don't let it ruin our business."

She lowered the curtain impatiently, unable to raise it in one breath.

Everyone in the Shen family waited outside the mansion for a while, but Wang and her son never came out.

Lin was impatient: "Why haven't you come yet?"

After a while, Wang's maid came out of the mansion.

Lin thought it was Wang who came. She lowered the curtain and murmured, "I told her yesterday, why is she so slow today?"

As soon as the curtain was lowered, the maid's sharp voice was heard.

"Madam, old lady, something happened."
