The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

Feng Liu widened his eyes slightly.

Is it popular these days to marry off daughters as soon as possible?

In the past there was Song Ru, the Marquis of Jianning, and now there is the old bitch Deng Shen Cang. It really is one batch after another.

Xiao Yan's brows were gloomy, and his eyes became sharp in an instant.

Shen Cang froze and immediately lowered his head. His heart was beating like a drum. He was afraid that if he said something wrong, Xiao Yan would just have someone tie him up.

Fortunately not.

The prince said nothing and rode away indifferently, leaving Shen Cang standing there trembling with fear.

until--

"Master Shen, please come in." Feng Liu looked at Shen Cang with a wry smile.

The latter, however, still looked completely confused.

Feng Liu explained patiently, "My Lord didn't chase you away, he just wanted you to come in."

"Oh!" Shen Cang suddenly realized: "Thank you for the reminder, Deputy Envoy."

"You're welcome." Feng Liu smiled kindly.

He moved his legs, and the horse slowly walked towards the headquarters of Qiying Pavilion.

Shen Cang followed happily behind.

He was still afraid when he set foot here again, but as long as he thought about the countless wealth and glory he would obtain by successfully marrying Shen Qiyin to Xiao Yan, his fear could be completely overcome.

Xiao Yan met him in the dark cell.

As soon as Shen Cang entered, his calves began to tremble and he could not even stand steadily.

Seeing this, Feng Liu kindly told him: "Master Shen, don't be afraid. After all, our masters are not some terrible beasts and are easy to talk to."

"If you really can't stand, you don't have to hold on..."

Hearing this, Shen Cang looked at him expectantly, and saw him touch his upper lip to his lower lip and said, "Kneel down."

Shen Cang's knees immediately went weak.

He didn't dare to be angry, nor did he dare to speak.

Kneeling on the freezing cold ground like a quail, he tentatively said, "Prince...my daughter..."

"You want to marry her to me?" Xiao Yan suddenly spoke, his voice was cold and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"…If, if the prince does not abandon you, it will be a blessing for my daughter and our entire family."

"But I think she is more suitable for my brother."

"What?!" Shen Cang suddenly raised his head, his eyes full of surprise.

He visited her boudoir at night, and they had no idea what had happened between them. Now he was going to push the person onto his brother?

Could it be that this was his idea from the beginning? He deliberately threw the woman he was tired of playing with to the Second Young Master Xiao, intending to disgust him.

But I haven't heard that they have any conflicts among the brothers.

Shen Cang’s brain was about to explode.

On the other hand, Xiao Yan's eyes were calm, as if what he said was just a common thing.

He sat leisurely in the chair, his elbows resting on the armrests, admiring Shen Cang's wonderful face-changing with interest, his other hand casually placed in front of him, playing with the cloud-patterned purse around his waist.

That was given to him by Shen Qiyin.

The soft fingertips brushed across it again and again, slowly and gently, as if treating some unique treasure, afraid of getting it dirty or scratched in the slightest.

After a while, Shen Cang seemed to have finally sorted out his thoughts, and said sincerely: "My little girl is beautiful, but of course she is not worthy of you, the prince. Since you said that she is a good match for the second young master, then I think she is a good match."

Both of them married into the Duke’s Mansion.

Hearing this, Feng Liu couldn't help but glance at him sideways, and the smile in his eyes rarely disappeared.

Xiao Yan paused in rubbing his purse.

He lowered his head slightly, so that no one could see the emotion in his eyes. He suddenly changed the subject: "What if I say that it would not be a bad idea to give her to my third brother?"

"...That's naturally great too."

Shen Cang could sense that there was something wrong with what Xiao Yan said, but as the saying goes, fortune and honor are achieved through risk. If he didn't seize this rare opportunity and take a chance, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

He was afraid that Xiao Yan would not believe his sincerity, so he hurriedly added: "As long as I can help you and make you happy, you will decide my daughter's marriage."

After a pause, he continued boldly: "It's just this betrothal gift..."

There was a gloom in Xiao Yan's eyes.

The slender white hands were clenched into fists, and the fingertips were slightly white.

His voice seemed even colder than before, and he said, "What I just said was just a joke."

"Your mother has chosen me."

"I will marry her."

The clear tone was like pearls falling to the ground, without any tone.

"Marry?!" Shen Cang could not hide his surprise: "You, you want to marry my daughter as your principal wife?"

real or fake?

He never dared to dream of such a beautiful thing.

Xiao Yan looked at him steadily, his brows cold, and did not answer.

Shen Cang suddenly remembered what Feng Liu had said to him at the gate, "The master didn't chase you away, he just wanted you to come in." He drew inferences from it and thought that since Xiao Yan didn't deny it, he must have admitted it!

The legitimate wife of the prince of the Duke's Mansion...

Then she will be the Duke’s wife in the future!

The Shen family can be considered very lucky as they had such an outstanding daughter. It's a pity that she is a little conceited and not very obedient, otherwise she would be perfect.

Fearing that her crazy temper might displease Xiao Yan someday, Shen Cang was eager to arrange the marriage: "I wonder... when will the prince prepare to marry my daughter?"

Bang!

There was a sudden sound at the entrance of the dungeon, and the echo scared Shen Cang so much that he shivered.

He just buried his head deeper, fearing that he would see something he shouldn't see and lose his life.

Xiao Yan: "I heard that Master Shen died of illness not long ago."

Shen Qiyin was his sister. As someone of the same generation, although she did not need to observe a three-year mourning period like her elders, she still had to wait at least a hundred days before talking about marriage.

Shen Cang's face turned pale.

He was so focused on "selling" his daughter that he forgot about this.

But this is certainly not something he can admit, so he just said: "As a father, how could I not have considered this? But I can't just ignore my daughter for the sake of my son."

"Besides, the dead are gone, and the living are the most important."

"As long as Qiyin wants to marry and the prince is willing to marry her, I will have to help her even if it means sacrificing my old face, right?"

"You are really thoughtful..." Xiao Yan's eyes were frosty and his tone was faint.

Upon hearing this, Feng Liu immediately stepped forward and said to Shen Cang, "Our lord still has things to do, so please go back first, Master Shen. Good news will be reported to the mansion soon."

"Oh, okay, okay!"

When Shen Cang heard the first half of the sentence, he thought the negotiation had fallen through.

Unexpectedly, it took a turn of events.

Even the people around Xiao Yan felt that this marriage was a sure thing and would be foolproof.

After Shen Cang left, Xiao Yan wiped the Frost Sword in his hand with a cold expression and said in a cold voice: "Come out."

As soon as he finished speaking, Honeysuckle walked up from the dungeon with a cold face.

"Did you hear everything?"

"Ah."

Honeysuckle's clenched fists hanging at her side were trembling slightly, and the anger in her eyes could not be extinguished.

She knew that Shen Cang was not a good father, but as a bystander, she could clearly see his disgusting face, so she couldn't help but feel sad and angry for her sister.

It would be fine if she had to deal with such corrupt parents.

But why?

Why is it that her elder sister, a person of such noble character, doesn't have parents who love and care for her?

Xiao Yan looked at her full of resentment and anger, and asked in a cold voice: "Want to kill him?"

Honeysuckle looked stubborn and did not answer.

Xiao Yan continued, "Your sister agreed to let you learn martial arts, not to let you act out your momentary impulsiveness."

"because……"

"The prerequisite for taking human life lightly is to be in a high position."

Xiong Lu leaned against the door frame and listened to what Xiao Yan said to Ren Dong. He looked at Chen Bao with a tearful expression on his face and asked him in a low voice, "Is it right for adults to teach children like this?"

Isn't this raising his cabbage in the wrong way?

Chen Bao patted his shoulder soothingly: "Hey, don't worry."

"Look." Chen Bao pointed at himself, then at Xionglu, and then at all the Thousand Eagle Guards nearby. Finally, he said, "You, me, and all of us, who didn't follow the adults?"

"You mean, my Lord, you have a plan in mind?"

"No." Chen Bao shook his head: "I mean, is there one that is not crooked?"

Xionglu: “…”

Chen Bao: "So don't worry, it's only a matter of time before Honeysuckle gets spoiled."

Xionglu was in a bad state.

Just at this moment, he heard Honeysuckle say, "I want to join the Thousand Eagle Guard!"

Xiao Yan's dark eyes flickered slightly: "Your courage is commendable, but I'm afraid your ability is not enough."

In a flash, he suddenly picked up a letter from the file and threw it to Rendong. It was called "throwing", but the speed and force were basically no different from firing a hidden weapon.

Honeysuckle did catch it, but the two fingers holding the envelope felt slightly hot, as if they were burned by fire.

Xiao Yan said expressionlessly, "Within three days, if you can capture the person mentioned in the letter and identify the mastermind behind the incident, I will allow you to join the Thousand Eagle Guard."

Hearing this, Xiong Lu and Chen Bao looked at each other and couldn't help but worry for Rendong.

The meal of Thousand Eagle Guard is not so delicious.

It is true that their masters are in love with Miss Shen, and they will take extra care of Rendong because of their love for her, but it is absolutely impossible for them to confuse public and private matters because of this.

Because letting Rendong off the hook would mean treating the lives of everyone in the Thousand Eagle Guard as a joke, and that's not something they adults would do.

It is precisely because of this that Xionglu and the others are even more worried.

The difficulty of the task...

I'm afraid it's extraordinary.

Honeysuckle herself is very motivated!

She knew very well that Xiao Yan had specially asked her to listen to the conversation between him and Shen Cang today. In fact, it was not only to let her understand her elder sister's situation, but also to remind her in disguise to see her own situation clearly.

If one day someone were to plot against her marriage, her elder sister would definitely make arrangements for her.

But she doesn't want that.

She wanted to stand on her horse with her sword in hand, between this vast heaven and earth, and grow powerful wings that were strong enough to protect her sister and herself!

After Rendong left, Xiao Yan immediately called Xiong Lu in.

He said meaningfully: "Following her secretly can only save her, not help her."

"...I understand."

In other words, unless it involves Honeysuckle's life, he would never act rashly.

Xiong Lu and others left one after another. Xiao Yan seemed to be concentrating on handling official business, but if someone approached at this moment, they would find that the only two words he wrote on the paper were "Shen Cang".

"Shen, Cang..." He paused for each word, drew a big cross on the name with a red pen, and then threw out a word in a grim tone: "Kill."

That night, the north wind was strong and the cold was oppressive.

Inside the Green Apple Pavilion, however, there is a sense of spring, and the warm jade emits a fragrant aroma.

Lin Tang kicked Shen Cang, who was lying unconscious on the ground, then looked at the person sitting at the top with embarrassment and said, "Of course I dare not disobey what the prince told me, but people spend huge sums of money for fun, not to buy an old man like him, so the price..." I'm afraid it will be greatly discounted.

Of course Shen Cang was not as exaggerated as Lin Tang said.

But compared with the "beautiful girls" in his building, Shen Cang really has no advantage.

Xiao Yan said nonchalantly: "The price is not important."

He did this purely to harm others without benefiting himself.

He thought that when Shen Cang decided on her marriage, he would never have considered what might happen and the situation she might face after getting married.

Then let him know!

How does it feel to be forced by someone and have no one to turn to for help?

"I'll leave the person to you, but I'll keep his life. You can do whatever you want with the rest."

"Yes."

Lin Tang thought to himself, “Just wait and see”, he is a professional at this.

Even a pile of poop can be "wrapped" into a flower.

He ordered the servants to carry Shen Cang out, shave him, wash him, and apply perfume, making his whole body shiny and smooth, and then took him out to bid.

Just like Lin Tang said, no one was interested in it at the beginning.

Until the madam said, "You can enjoy this as you like."

Only then did some people with special hobbies start to speak.

Not to mention, it sold for sixty or seventy taels of silver.

Lin Tang thought that Xiao Yan, the prince, would not be interested in such a small amount of money and would most likely give it to his servants.

Unexpectedly, the prince who had previously said that "price is not important" actually took the silver and left, leaving only one sentence: "I will pick you up at the beginning of the morning hour tomorrow."

After saying that, he left and went to Shen's house.

When he went to find Shen Qiyin, she was chatting around the fire with Xianglan. No one knew what they were talking about, but he could hear her little girl's laughter in the yard.

Honeysuckle is busy with a case and didn't come back tonight.

Xiao Yan originally thought that he could finally enjoy a brief moment of alone time with Yinyin, but who would have thought that after one left, another came!

It turned out that Shen Qiyin saw that the weather had been cold recently, so she asked Xianglan to sleep in her room. She and Rendong still slept in the same bed, while Xianglan slept on a low couch near the window.

Seeing Xiao Yan coming late at night, Xianglan was not surprised at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "I have something to do with Banxia." Then she wrapped herself in the quilt and ran away like a maggot.

She thought that this way she wouldn't be an eyesore to the prince and she could also keep an eye on Banxia, ​​killing two birds with one stone.

I am such a clever little kid!

After the "little clever ghost" Xianglan left, Xiao Yan took off his cloak with ease, stood beside the incense burner to warm himself by the fire, and only sat down next to Shen Qiyin when his body was warm.

She pulled his hand, which had been blown by the night wind all night, and tried to warm it up: "Why is it so cold?"

Xiao Yan felt the warmth on the back of his hand, and looked at her cheeks which were rosy due to the warmth in the room. He had the urge to kiss her.

As he was lost in thought, he was a little late in answering: "... carrying something."

After he finished speaking, he handed her the silver he had carried along the way.

Shen Qiyin was puzzled: "Where did it come from?"

"Earn it."

"Salary?"

"No." He suddenly raised his lips and smiled, lowered his head, and gently pressed his cool forehead against hers: "You will know tomorrow."

"There is another surprise, which I will give to Yinyin as well."

Because of Xiao Yan's words, Shen Qiyin got up early the next morning.

Before they had finished their breakfast, a servant came running in hurriedly, saying that someone had come from the palace to deliver the imperial edict!
