Shen Qinglan narrowed his eyes and looked at the boy. In Prince Zhan's mansion, the only five or six-year-old who could shoot arrows on behalf of Prince Zhan to ward off evil spirits was probably his second son, Huo Junyu.

I heard that Huo Junyu was famous for his incredible strength and was good at wielding swords and guns since he was young.

It's a pity that he didn't use his power in the right way in his previous life. He used his brute force to commit violence and cause trouble everywhere.

In the end, he was beaten to death in order to compete with a big shot for the courtesan!

Of course, Huo Junyu was only five or six years old at this time. He had not yet fully grown up, with a round face and a hint of childishness. It was hard to associate him with the dandy boy in his previous life.

However, judging from Huo Junyu's attitude, it was obvious that he had come with ill intentions.

Therefore, Shen Qinglan remained silent and acted like a little lamb.

Huo Junyu obviously didn't intend to get Shen Qinglan's answer. He just looked at the matchmaker beside him and pointed the bow at Shen Qinglan.

Seeing this, the bridesmaid shouted loudly:

"One shot to the sky, a match made in heaven, a happy couple coming to the house~"

As soon as the voice fell, Huo Junyu drew the bow like a full moon. The taut bowstring made the people around him gasp.

The attitude of the little tyrant Huo... could it be that he wants to kill the bride?

Before anyone could react, they heard a “whoosh” sound!

The sharp arrow was like lightning, heading straight towards Shen Qinglan!

"what!"

"Miss!"

Everyone screamed in subconsciously, and some even turned their backs, not daring to look anymore.

Everyone saw clearly that the arrow was clearly heading towards Shen Qinglan's face!

The scene suddenly became dead silent.

"Ah……"

At this moment, a light laugh broke the silence, and everyone immediately looked in the direction of the sound.

At this time, Shen Qinglan was holding the fan steadily in one hand, without moving his feet at all, showing no sign of fear at all.

While the other hand was tightly grasping the feather arrow, the phoenix eyes exposed outside the fan were staring at Huo Junyu closely, as if trying to see through his soul.

She stood still, her red wedding dress swaying in the wind, as if she was an immortal about to fly away on the wind.

Then Shen Qinglan spoke in a cold voice:

"The War King fought for the Yong Dynasty and made great contributions. It is said that a good father will have a good son. Since you are the descendant of a general, you should be good at riding and shooting. Otherwise, wouldn't you be unworthy of the name of the War King? And you..."

Shen Qinglan looked at Huo Junyu with a hint of disdain and ridicule, and threw the feather arrow in his hand lightly to the ground. Then he sighed, shook his head, and continued:

"If the Second Young Master's archery skills are not good enough, there is no need to force it. You can just find someone else to replace him."

"Who said my archery skills are not good enough?"

Huo Junyu was originally surprised that Shen Qinglan could catch the arrow accurately, but when he heard Shen Qinglan's words, his competitive spirit was immediately aroused.

Especially, the look in his eyes that was a little disappointed after seeing Queshan!

That look... was like that of a father, with a hint of disappointment, making people want to prove something.

Huo Junyu immediately picked up the bow and arrow again, raised his childish face towards Shen Qinglan, and said with a little pride:

"I will show you how powerful the son of a general is!"

Shen Qinglan raised his eyebrows but said nothing, but the look in his eyes outside the fan looked like a smile.

Seeing that Shen Qinglan didn't believe him, Huo Junyu was eager to prove it, so he glared at the frightened bridesmaid beside him and said angrily:

"What are you still standing there for? Don't you know how to say auspicious words?"

The bridesmaid beside her was already sweating profusely from fear. She had never expected that this little ancestor could shoot the arrow directly at the bride's face!

If something really happens, the old lady will blame us and we will all be killed!

But at this time, Huo Junyu scolded him, and he could only pray inwardly, hoping that this little ancestor would not mess around again, and then he trembled and shouted again:

"Two shots to the earth, the earth is paired with two, the newlyweds will have a happy marriage~"

"call out!"

The second arrow was shot out again and landed directly an inch in front of Shen Qinglan's embroidered shoes.

The arrow feathers trembled slightly, and if it moved forward a little more, it would have pierced her foot.

"Three arrows determine the fate of the world. First shoot the sky, then shoot the earth. The earth will last forever, and the sky will last forever~"

"call out!"

The last arrow shot again, brushed against the hem of Shen Qinglan's clothes, and got stuck in the door of the sedan chair.

Seeing this, Shen Qinglan couldn't help but praise himself that Huo Junyu's archery skills were indeed excellent.

If he had not grown up in a bad way in his previous life, he might have become a general.

Seeing this, Huo Junyu raised his little head towards Shen Qinglan and said proudly:

"My archery skills are good, right?"

Shen Qinglan looked at Huo Junyu's look of seeking praise and couldn't help but chuckle. He was indeed still a child.

Immediately, Shen Qinglan slowly walked up to Huo Junyu, stretched out his hand and pressed it on Huo Junyu's little head, rubbed it gently, and praised in a gentle voice:

"The Second Young Master is indeed like his father. However, according to the rules, he should call me mother from now on."

Huo Junyu suddenly covered his head, pointed at Shen Qinglan, and was speechless for a moment.

Shen Qinglan looked down at the person in front of him, his eyes wide open. His wet eyes were like those of a frightened deer. He looked at his little kid in shock, and the smile in his eyes deepened.

Even if he is a little devil, he is just a five or six-year-old child. It is quite fun to bully him...

Of course, it was also fortunate that Huo Junyu's first arrow was aimed at her phoenix crown, just to scare her and make her look bad, otherwise...

In her previous life, she was able to help Li Youyun rise to prominence, and she was not a kind-hearted person.

When the bridesmaid saw that the little devil Huo Junyu didn't act recklessly anymore, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shen Qinglan with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

This future Princess Zhan is truly extraordinary. She resolved the little devil's difficulties with a gentle breeze and gentle rain...

When Shen Qinglan and the wedding party entered the Zhanwang Mansion, Huo Junyu finally came to his senses. With a red face, he angrily cursed:

"Shameless woman! Who wants you to be my mother? Humph!"

After saying that, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his head. The remaining warmth and softness made him wander in his mind again: Does motherhood feel so sweet?

--------

Although the War Prince Huo Zhanting was not in the mansion, the old Princess Zhan did not treat Shen Qinglan badly and gave her a decent betrothal gift.

The sounds of stringed instruments and suona are endless.

In the wedding hall, Princess Zhan sat at the head of the table, wearing a emerald-colored bodice and a red headband inlaid with sapphires, looking rich and dignified.

There was a hint of fatigue between his brows, obviously caused by the recent death of the old war king.

But when the old Princess Zhan looked at Shen Qinglan, she still had a smile on her face and said in a gentle voice:

"My son has not returned yet. You just need to offer me a cup of tea. When he returns, I will hold the wedding ceremony for you two. How do you think?"

Shen Qinglan was relieved to see that the old Princess Zhan was a reasonable person. She thanked her respectfully and offered her tea.

Seeing that Shen Qinglan was respectful and well-behaved, Princess Zhan drank the tea with great satisfaction and gave her a big red envelope.

Just as the bridesmaid was about to send Shen Qinglan back to the bridal chamber, a childish voice suddenly sounded:

"Grandmother, the bride is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an. I'm sure the dowry must be generous. Can you sing a dowry song to open Yi'er and everyone else's eyes?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

You know, the richer the family, the less likely they are to covet the dowry brought by the daughter-in-law.

Besides, everyone knows that Shen Qinglan’s status in the Jing’an Marquis’s Mansion is awkward. The Marquis of Jing’an’s wife is the stepmother. How many good things can she give to this stepdaughter?

If the dowry is not generous enough, Shen Qinglan will become the talk of the town tomorrow.

Who is it that said this?

Isn't this... intentional to embarrass the bride?
