On the day of the granted marriage, the daughter of a general wept and was reborn!

Hearing this, Cen Xiao smiled helplessly, stretched his neck back, and pushed the sword out with one finger.

"I heard from your servants that you were sick. Maybe you were angry because the Queen Mother ridiculed you in public?" Cen Xiao went to the side, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and spoke softly.

"If you are here to make fun of me, you can leave now."

Shen Wantang followed with a cold tone and snatched the teacup that Cen Xiao was about to pass to his mouth.

"Ms. Shen, don't be angry."

Seeing this, Cen Xiao also forced a smile and followed Shen Wantang.

"I made a mistake."

As he spoke, Cen Xiao took something out from his chest and placed it in front of Shen Wantang. He raised his head and said proudly, "This is the chestnut cake from Taohuazhai in Beijing. It's the most delicious. Would you like to try it?"

Shen Wantang looked at it, then picked up the pen and continued writing.

"It's not easy for me to buy things. The chef only makes 100 portions a day. People go to wait for them before dawn. I also waited for several days before I could buy one."

Cen Xiao was not discouraged and pushed the chestnut cake again.

Shen Wantang then put down the brush in his hand and raised his head. Under that hint of resentment, there was a sense of peace.

Shen Wantang sat quietly in front of the window, but her eyes seemed to be filled with a thousand pounds of sorrow.

"Don't pay attention to those gossipers. They will talk about whoever is in trouble. Things will change over time, and they will have bad luck one day!"

Cen Xiao was filled with righteous indignation.

But three-tenths of this righteous indignation was acted out.

His acting skills were so poor that Shen Wantang felt it was childish.

"Now that my Shen family is facing a disaster, the prince should not have any contact with us in the future. If it tarnishes your reputation, you will have no place to seek justice."

Shen Wantang lowered her eyes coldly and spoke resolutely.

She wasn't playing hard to get.

Mobei is in turmoil, and many eyes are staring at the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion. If something goes wrong with Cen Xiao at this moment, it would be of no avail even if the entire Cen family prayed for help.

The best way to deal with it is to draw a clear line.

But Cen Xiao was a stubborn person. Even though others didn't allow him to come, he still insisted on coming.

"If I were afraid of these, I don't know how the soldiers below would make fun of me."

Cen Xiao smiled indifferently, picked up the chestnut cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

Don't look back and move forward courageously.

It was indeed the Cen Xiao in Shen Wantang’s memory.

But now is not the time for him to go forward without hesitation.

"Now that I have offended the Queen Mother, I am afraid I will not live long. For the sake of the Cen family, Prince, please respect yourself."

Shen Wantang looked restrained, and every word he said was heartbreaking.

"Shen Wantang, do you really think that I, Cen Xiao, am afraid of those people? In my eyes, those people are nothing. So what if there are rumors? So what if there are ridicules? If your marriage proposal fails, I will marry you!"

Cen Xiao was a little annoyed, and his tone suddenly turned cold, but he became more and more excited as he spoke, and even the blue veins on his forehead were slightly bulging.

Shen Wantang's heart trembled, but she still suppressed her excitement and stared at Cen Xiao with a cold face.

"I already have a crush on someone."

After a long while, Shen Wantang spoke coldly.

As Shen Wantang said these words, his heart was bleeding. Facing his lover, he could only push him away.

She hated her own incompetence, hated Ji Xunchuan's mischief, and hated all the hypocrisy in this world.

But now, she herself is a hypocritical person.

After he finished speaking, the excitement in Cen Xiao's eyes faded away, leaving only a hint of disbelief and despair.

"What did you say?" He didn't want to believe what came out of Shen Wantang's mouth, and asked in a trembling voice.

"I already have a crush."

Shen Wantang tried her best to suppress the grief in her heart and spoke resolutely.

Cen Xiao clenched his fists, veins popping out at his temples: "Who is he?"

"Sir, hitting someone without reason is provoking trouble. The lightest punishment is beating with a stick, and the worst is dismissal and exile."

Shen Wantang lowered her eyes, not daring to look her lover in the eye again, and pretended to be fearless.

A cold wind blew in from outside the window, extinguishing the passion in Cen Xiao's heart and taking away his last bit of courage.

"I know that the prince is kind and considerate of me. I also understand that someone like you would definitely want to marry someone you love, and that person would definitely love you very much. But I'm sorry, I'm not that person."

Shen Wantang's last words completely extinguished the last spark left in Cen Xiao's heart.

"Don't waste your time on me, my lord. Please go back."

Shen Wantang turned around, tears finally unable to stop flowing.

When she turned around again, the person in front of the window had disappeared.

She exhaled heavily, but in an instant, her vision went black and she fell to the ground.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?"

Pei Qing, who had been waiting for a long time at the side of Shen's house, finally saw Cen Xiao. Looking at his slightly red eyes, Pei Qing felt worried.

Cen Xiao didn't want to say anything and quickened his pace to move forward.

"It seems like I've been rejected again..." Pei Qing shook his head helplessly.

When Shen Wantang opened his eyes again, it was already night.

"Miss, Miss, you finally woke up!"

Qing'e was so excited that she grabbed her hands repeatedly and tears welled up in her eyes.

The doctor standing by also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The young lady was already depressed, and after the great sorrow, she fainted. I have already prescribed medicine, and my brother has gone to get it. Take it twice a day for five days, and you will be cured."

The doctor spoke.

After Qing'e sent the person away, she hurried back to Shen Wantang's room.

"Miss……"

"I'm fine." Before Qing'e could finish her words, Shen Wantang patted her hands and comforted her softly.

"Miss, you said you were fine, but look at your face. I was really scared to death when I saw you faint today."

Qing'e felt a wave of fear in her heart and couldn't stop crying.

"I thought someone from the next door yard was sent to murder you."

After the words fell, Shen Wantang laughed helplessly: "Silly child, my yard has guards, what kind of good fighter can the neighbors find to kill me?"

"You don't know! This afternoon, I saw the maid next to Aunt Liu secretly go out and meet someone."

Qing'e frowned.

"That woman wrapped herself up tightly and wore a veil, fearing that people would recognize her. She must have done something shameful. I waited there for a while, and after the woman came out, several men wearing veils came out one after another, each holding a weapon. They didn't look like good people."

The people in the next yard?

The people in the next yard are usually just worried about Shen Ying's marriage, but even if it's a marriage proposal, why would she dress like this?

The old woman was not like this when she went shopping on the street a few days ago.

"Miss, why don't we add more people? I think our yard is a little unsafe."

Thinking of this, Qing'e felt a little scared.

After the words were spoken, the room fell silent.

Suddenly!

There was a strange noise outside the door.
