Chapter 5 Marriage Decree
When the imperial edict granting marriage arrived at the Nian residence, everyone except Nian Xialing was shocked, and they were all wondering why the emperor suddenly granted marriage to the Nian family.

Moreover, the legitimate daughter of the Nian family was allowed to marry the Fourth Prince as a concubine. No matter how noble the concubine was, she was still just a concubine!

After the eunuch who announced the decree happily took the silver handed by Madam Nian and left, Nian Xialing remembered that his daughter had fainted a month ago and said she didn't want to be anyone's concubine after waking up.

He looked at his daughter's face, which did not seem to resist, and spoke carefully: "Lan'er, this imperial decree granting marriage..."

Nian Shilan knew that her father was thinking about what she had said about not giving anyone else a concubine.

But she remembered the tragic end of the Nian family in the previous life when the entire family was executed.

He lowered his eyes and bowed to his father.

"Father, please don't worry. I just had a nightmare when I fainted that day. I have almost forgotten about it these days. Although I don't know why the emperor suddenly granted me the marriage, I have heard that the fourth prince is a peaceful person. I think as long as I am careful, I should be able to live a stable life even if I don't expect to be in harmony with him. Besides, the emperor's order cannot be violated. I just want to keep the Nian family safe."

So after the Nian family was shocked, they focused on preparing for Nian Shilan's wedding.

During this period, Nian Shilan said that she was bored. She was confined in the mansion every day, or had tea and gatherings with other noble ladies, which was really boring.

So he took advantage of the winter month when the ground was covered with white after a snowfall and took Songzhi out.

Songzhi was younger after all, so she jumped for joy as she walked down the street and saw the cleared roadsides filled with fresh food and novel gadgets.

Nian Shilan still looked as lively and pretty as when she was in the mansion.

She was wearing a pink dress wrapped in a moon-white fox fur cloak, with only a delicate little face visible through the collar.

The magnolia flower hairpin on her head looks elegant and noble, and the earrings hanging on the sides of her face are like bits of jade, making her little face even more beautiful.

Two servants followed behind her, holding a few brocade boxes in their arms, which contained some hairpins and bracelets that Nian Shilan had just bought from the best jewelry store in the city.
