Marry Donggong

Chapter 3 Never regret
After Shen Yi left, she did not return to her residence, Xixi Garden.

She walked slowly on the verandah, her eyes filled with water, looking at every brick, tile, plant and tree in Shenhou's Mansion.

In her previous life, she was imprisoned in the Prince of Chu's Mansion. When she returned from her dream at midnight, she could see the small Nongyu building where she practiced piano and painting, the Xianting where she played chess with her parents, and the Jifengju where she watched her elder brother practice swordplay.

She was so happy to be in it all of a sudden.

Suddenly, Shen Yi stopped, not daring to go any further. The ends of her eyes were slightly moist.

Not far away, three close relatives whom she missed countless times in her dreams came around the corner, looking at her with worry and love.

The sourness in her heart was unbearable. She knew that Xiao Linshe came to break off the engagement and spoke coldly to her. Her parents and eldest brother had always cherished her, and she must have wanted to beat him out of Shen Hou's house with a stick and stab him several times to vent their hatred.

But they avoided Xiao Linshe and left her to deal with him alone because she was deeply in love with him. If they were present and couldn't hold back their anger and hurt him, he would be more resentful towards her. One point, then her heartache will be one point more.

Her parents and eldest brother have always considered her so carefully!
Shen Zishan, Gu Qingwei, his wife and Shen Ce had already walked up to Shen Yi and said in unison.

"Yiniang."

"Yiniang."

"Yiniang."

When Shen Yi heard this familiar voice, her body trembled slightly and she looked at the three of them with tears in her eyes.There is a lot to say, but every word is stuck in my throat.

Daddy is a noble man raised by a century-old family. He has graceful manners and beautiful words.When she was enlightened, he held her and sat on his lap to practice calligraphy. She just drew a crooked stroke on the paper, and he was ecstatic. He turned back to his mother and said, "Qingwei, our Yi mother is very beautiful." Smart, I will be as talented as you in the future."

My mother was born in the Gu family of Qinghe. Before she came out of the imperial court, she was a talented woman who was famous in Chang'an City. However, she never restrained her and just touched her head lovingly: "Mother only hopes that our Yi Niang will grow up safely and have a smooth life. It all depends on Yi Niang’s wishes.”

The eldest brother is capable of both literary and martial arts, and has good swordsmanship. He is a young man of great significance.He was extremely protective of her and never let her be wronged.

In the previous life, they had worked hard over her frustrated marriage, were suppressed by Emperor He Yuan, and stabbed in the back for the Prince of Chu's palace, leading to such a tragic end.

In that windy and frosty winter, they were escorted to kneel on the execution ground with pale faces. She burst into tears and tried desperately to walk over to them. Xiao Linshe covered her mouth tightly to prevent her from making a sound. , don’t let her get close.

She watched the executioner's knife rise and fall, blood splattering three feet away.Her sky collapsed, a big empty hole was dug out of her heart, and she would have no joy at all for the rest of her life.

Scenes from the past life overlapped with their three concerned faces, like a sharp sword, piercing her heart, making her unable to breathe in pain.

Shen Yi looked pale and covered her heart.

Shen Ce had quick eyesight and quick hands. He was too busy to support Shen Yi and said in an urgent voice: "Mother Yi, are you feeling unwell?"

He turned around and said to Huazhi on the side: "Huazhi, please call the doctor!"

"Yes." Hua Zhi led the order and was about to invite the doctor.

Shen Yi said softly: "There is no need for flower branches."

She smiled at Chief Shen, and the remaining tears at the end of her eyes fell on her fat cheeks, like a pear blossom blooming after the spring rain, and said: "Brother, I'm just dizzy for a moment, it's nothing serious."

Those tears seemed to fall on Shen Ce's heart, and he understood that Yiniang was reluctant to let go of Xiao Linshe.

He clenched his fists and his eyes turned red: "Yiniang, if you don't want to break off the engagement with Xiao Linshe, you don't have to worry. Big brother has thousands of ways to make him stop thinking about breaking off the engagement!"

Shen Zishan pondered for a moment and said, "Yiniang, as a father, I will go to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. Your marriage to Xiao Linshe is ironclad. How can you allow him to break off the engagement just because he says so?"

Gu Qingwei took Shen Yi's hand and stroked her hair: "Mother Yi, your parents and eldest brother will not let you be wronged. Don't be sad."

Shen Yi's eyes were filled with coolness. In her previous life, she had caused trouble for Shenhou Mansion. Now that she was reborn, how could she put Shenhou Mansion into a dilemma again?

There was no trace of attachment to Xiao Linshe in her voice: "Xiao Linshe has someone else in his heart. He is unkind and unjust."

"Even if Yiniang likes him no matter how much she loves him, she can't belittle herself and insult the character of Shenhou Mansion. It's not that he wants to break off the engagement, but that Yiniang has abandoned him."

What's more, she no longer liked him, a long, long time ago.

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became silent, except for the sound of dripping raindrops.

After a long while, Shen Zishan stroked his palms and said three good words: "Okay, okay, okay! You are worthy of being my Shen Zishan's daughter!"

Shen Ce took a deep breath, his tone still filled with anger: "Yiniang, with your words, I will feel relieved. But if Xiao Huaian bullies you like this, I will never let him go easily!"

Gu Qingwei looked gentle and comforted: "Our Yi Niang has natural beauty and extraordinary talents, and she deserves a better man."

"Those unfeeling and heartless men will give up as soon as they give up. Yi Niang, don't be sad."

Shen Yi hugged Gu Qingwei's arm and buried her head in her familiar and reassuring embrace.

She burst into tears.

How lucky she is to have family members who love her so much.

God has mercy on her and she lives another life.

They tried their best to protect her in the previous life, and in this life she should collect blood debt from the Tian family and keep the Shen Hou Mansion safe.Even if there are all kinds of plans, even if there are thorns along the way, she is fearless.

……

Within half an hour, the news spread like wildfire in Chang'an City.

The eldest son of the Prince of Chu suddenly visited the Shenhou Mansion and wanted to break off his engagement with the eldest daughter of the mansion. However, he changed his mind and fell in love with the Miss Cui Mansion who had been found by the Cui Mansion a few months ago.

The eldest daughter of the Shenhou Mansion was also spirited. After learning that the Prince of Chu was in love with her, she tore up the marriage contract neatly.

She decided against him: "The marriage contract has been destroyed, so the engagement between you and me will no longer count!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone in Chang'an City was shocked.The crown prince of the Chu Kingdom has a beautiful scenery, orchid and jade trees, and the eldest daughter of Shen Hou Mansion is charming, elegant and gentle. The two have been childhood sweethearts, and they have made a marriage contract. They are really worthy of being called a talented man and a beautiful woman, and they are happily married.

Their sudden breakup of the engagement really surprised them.

Some people scolded Xiao Linshe for not holding the pipa, accused Cui Huajin of being entangled with the husband he was engaged to, and being shameless. Some people accused Shen Yi of risking the disapproval of the world and daring to break off the engagement with his childhood sweetheart. There was no tolerance at all. Others praised him. Shen Yi breaks off when necessary without losing the bearing of a noble lady.

Chu palace.

"You traitor, kneel down!" Prince Chu scolded with sharp eyebrows and a deep voice.

Xiao Linshe had changed out of his clothes that were wet by the rain and was wearing a double-breasted robe, tall and elegant.

His handsome face was expressionless as he knelt down, his sword eyes were so dark that it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Princess Chu only had an only son, Xiao Linshe, so how could she be willing to let him kneel down and suffer.

She advised: "Your Majesty, it's just a trivial matter of breaking off the engagement, so why do you need to be so angry? Linshe is the prince of the royal family. He has a noble status and outstanding appearance. He is a dragon and a phoenix among people. The noble daughter of Chang'an City is not Ren Linshe. It’s about selection.”

As she spoke, she couldn't help but get angry at Shen Yi: "I thought Shen Yi was a gentle and polite person, but unexpectedly, he turned out to be a mean and vicious person who could not tolerate others. She dared to tear up the marriage contract before they even got married. If she did, the whole family would be in trouble. Doesn’t the palace want to follow her Shen Yi’s surname: Shen?”

Prince Chu's gaze was sharp, and he pressed towards Princess Chu: "A loving mother often loses her son. This rebellious son has caused such great troubles only because of your connivance."

"Do you know that the entire Haoying family in Chang'an City is now accusing him of being ungrateful and half-hearted. Do you think that Shen Zishan will let it go after insulting Shen Zishan's beloved eldest daughter? The queen is not the biological mother of this king, Shen Zizai is her My nephew, she suppressed her with her filial piety, and I am powerless to resist."

He snorted coldly: "Not to mention how many people will impeach me tomorrow morning."

Princess Chu's expression changed. She really didn't know the situation would be so serious.

She hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, calm down." Prince Chu looked away coldly, stared at Xiao Linshe who said nothing, and said: "Tomorrow, you will follow me to Shen Hou's Mansion, kowtow to Shen Yi, admit your mistake, and beg her Forgive me. Your marriage to Shen Yi remains as usual."

The coldness and clearly discernible disgust in Shen Yi's eyes still appeared in front of Xiao Linshe's eyes, and he was worried about it.

He choked up his anger and disobeyed Prince Chu for the first time in his life: "Father, Linshe hates Shen Yi so much that he will never marry her."

"Linshe only falls in love with Miss Cui. He will not marry anyone other than Miss Cui."

Prince Chu was extremely angry and laughed back: "It's so good that I won't marry anyone other than Miss Cui!"

He said loudly: "Come here, take the prince to a secluded room to think about his mistakes. When he realizes his mistake, he will be released."

Two guards came in from outside the door and said to Xiao Linshe: "Your Majesty, please."

Xiao Linshe stood up, turned around and walked towards the door. The sunlight stretched his figure longer.

He just felt lonely and courageous in his heart. He would not make mistakes or regret.

Pursuing the love in his heart was the only thing he did to resist his father in his twenty years of life, and it was also the most correct thing he did.

Shen Yi kept saying that he disgusted her. Didn't she use the power of Shen Houfu and the imperial grandmother to force him to submit?No wonder she was confident. She had a plan waiting for him, but he failed to fulfill her wish.

Princess Chu watched Xiao Linshe walk away, feeling distressed and angry.

As expected, the wife was unvirtuous and the family suffered many troubles. Shen Yi caused trouble and caused Linshe to be punished.She must not let Shen Yi and other Sangmen stars step into the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion.

She couldn't help but have a hint of resentment in her tone: "Your Majesty, the secret room is located in a remote place, cold and desolate. Linshe is our only legitimate son. How can you bear to lock him up in the secret room?"

"What is so good about Shen Yi that he allows you, the prince, to go over our own son?"

Prince Chu's face was as dark as water. Linshe and Cui Huajin got close because of his tacit approval. Today, Linshe came to cancel the engagement. He knew it.

Because he also knew that Shen Yi was very much in love with Linshe and would never break off the engagement. In this case, Shen Zishan would definitely go to the emperor's brother for his daughter's marriage. The emperor's brother would take this opportunity to make the Shenhou Mansion suffer a big loss. .Then Linshe was forced to marry her. Linshe didn't like her in his heart and wasted his time on her. Shen Zishan always cared about his daughter. He thought he would go to great lengths for her and cause chaos.

In this way, the Shenhou Mansion, which had deep roots in Chang'an City, was slowly eroded and gradually swallowed up, until the whole family was wiped out, and future troubles were eliminated forever.

It's all part of his plan.

But they never expected that Shen Yi, contrary to everyone's expectations, agreed to break off the engagement.

She is the key to the emperor's move against the Shenhou Mansion, if something goes wrong.Even if he and the emperor's brother share the same mother, the emperor's brother is cold-blooded and will not let him go easily.

There was no warmth in his eyes as he stared at Princess Chu: "I have more than one son, Linshe."

Princess Chu shuddered hard and immediately fell silent.

……

After a cup of tea, two guards led Xiao Linshe to the quiet room of Prince Chu's Mansion.

creak.

They opened the wooden door of the secret room, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Your Majesty, this subordinate has been offended."

Xiao Linshe walked into the secret room expressionlessly, and soon, the door was closed again.

He looked around with his sword eyes. The layout of the private room was very simple, with only a bed and a bookcase.

But so.

Xiao Linshe sneered in his heart. With this little pain, Shen Yi also wanted him to give in?It would be too much to underestimate him.

He took off his outer robe and cloud-head brocade shoes, got on the bed, and closed his eyes.

The so-called introspection behind closed doors is nothing but nonsense.He just lamented that he couldn't see Jin Niang, who was a hundred times better than Shen Yi, in the past few days. The long lovesickness had spread in his heart, making him miss her like crazy.

Forget it, he looked for Jin Niang in his sleep to relieve the pain of lovesickness.

Outside the window, the spring rain was still pattering.

Xiao Linshe's breathing gradually became longer, and his chest rose and fell.

Suddenly, he frowned, and several fragments inexplicably appeared in his mind.

Shen Yi was wearing plain white clothes and sitting quietly in front of the desk in the quiet room. Her green temples were dyed thick with spring smoke, and her jade bones and ice muscles were full of energy.

Her gaze was so penetrating, like a cold spring in a mountain stream.

Among them, there is also Lingling's hatred.

In the dream, Xiao Linshe looked sad, as if he dared not look directly into Shen Yi's eyes.

He lowered his eyelids and moved his thin lips, as if he said something, but also as if he didn't say anything at all.

When she wasn't paying attention, she would secretly raise her eyes and stare at her lotus face, unable to help but reveal a faint flame.

The trance picture changed.

Shen Yi walked alone in the vast snow, walking forward without looking back, and kept walking.

No trace of nostalgia, no trace of bondage.

Xiao Linshe's sword eyes were full of panic, and he stumbled towards Shen Yi.

No matter how you chase her, it's all in vain. You can only watch her walk away until she disappears.

From a distance, her clear and faint voice floated: "Xiao Linshe, since I have abandoned you, I will never look back."

Thousands of long swords pierced straight into his heart, causing his soul to almost leave his body and his mind to fall into a trance with pain.

His face turned pale, he staggered a few steps, and his voice was hoarse and trembling: "Yiniang, I regret it."

Xiao Linshe woke up suddenly, sweat had wet his inner clothes, and he gasped for air.

The scene in the dream was so vivid, as if he had actually experienced it.

He looks out the window.

The night fell low, and the sky was as dark as ink, without a trace of light.

Xiao Linshe's eyes were filled with confusion.

Shen Yi had never been to Youshi, so why did she appear here? He was staring at her with that kind of gaze.

It was obvious that he only had unspeakable lust for Jin Niang, and the pitiful friendship he had with Shen Yi had been exhausted by her today, leaving him filled with displeasure.

Why did he keep chasing Shen Yi in his dream and regret it all the time?

He came back to his senses, sneered and said with a smile: How could he regret it?This dream is extremely absurd.
