Not daring to let anyone find out that the Feng siblings were here, Luo Xueyan brought Shen Miao to the front hall to receive the person from the palace. After the young eunuch finished speaking, they realized that he was not here to deliver an imperial edict, but to ask Shen Miao to go to the palace alone tomorrow. The empress had something to say to Shen Miao.

After the young eunuch left, Luo Xueyan’s expression turned extremely ugly. Although there was no imperial edict, it was not much better. Tomorrow, Shen Miao would have to enter the palace alone. If the imperial edict was issued at that time, Shen Miao could not handle the situation alone. Even if the imperial edict was not issued, who knew what kind of threat the empress would say?

Feng Anning and Feng Zixian were both a little worried, but Shen Miao advised them not to take it to heart. After the Feng siblings left, Luo Tan asked, “Cousin, what should we do now? Why don’t you settle the marriage today?”

“The marriage can’t be settled overnight. There are a lot of procedures to go through. We don’t have enough time,” Shen Miao said.

Luo Tan was stunned. “Cousin, you really know a lot about marriage.”

Shen Miao paused. She naturally did. In her previous life, she watched happily as these procedures were completed one by one, wishing she could marry the person she liked as soon as possible.

However, she did not expect that she was slowly pushing herself down the abyss.

Luo Xueyan looked at Shen Miao seriously. “Jiaojiao, tell me, among these people, who do you like?”

“I don’t have any feelings for them.” Shen Miao smiled faintly. “Just choose the one who is most suitable. Mother, don’t be too anxious. It won’t be too late to make a decision when I come back from the palace tomorrow. Perhaps more suitable people will appear.”

Luo Xueyan was stunned. Shen Miao always looked indifferent to her marriage and did not seem to hold any expectations for her future husband, which made Luo Xueyan a little flustered. After Shen Miao left, she muttered to herself, “Could it be that… Jiaojiao still has feelings for Prince Ding…”

Shen Miao did not know what Luo Xueyan was thinking at all. She was already prepared for the worst and was determined to die with the royal family.

Even in the worst situation, she still had to hold on to hope. After all, she was still alive, right?

As she thought this, she looked at the window with a dark gaze and finally felt a little frustrated. She instructed Gu Yu, “Close the window tightly. I’m going to rest.”

…

The crown prince wanted to take Shen Miao as his secondary consort, so now, the officials did not dare to have anything to do with the Shen family. This matter spread like wildfire. If it could reach the ears of the officials, it would naturally reach the ears of the princes.

In Prince Zhou’s mansion, Prince Jing and Prince Zhou were sitting at the table and discussing this matter.

“After competing with Sixth Brother and the others for so long, I didn’t expect the crown prince to take advantage of the situation in the end!” Prince Zhou drank the wine angrily. “The crown prince is getting smarter!”

Prince Jing was more composed than his brother. He shook his head and said, “I think this is not only the crown prince’s idea, but also Father’s idea. Father is already unhappy with us and Prince Li. The crown prince is the rightful heir. Father wants to help the crown prince by roping in the Shen family for him.”

“Father is too old and stupid.” Prince Zhou sneered. “That invalid, the crown prince, even if he gets Shen Xin’s support, how many more years can he live? He’ll die before he can even touch the throne.” These words were very vicious, almost like he was cursing the crown prince to die early. Prince Zhou’s tone was very jealous. It had to be known that if the crown prince obtained the Shen family’s military power, his strength would increase greatly. Not only would he be able to compete with Prince Li, but his power might even surpass the power the rest of the princes combined.
