Chapter 269

Yuan Qi expressed his resistance to this marriage by resigning from office. He would rather not be the prime minister than sacrifice his child's freedom of marriage, let alone help the tyrant.

Xiao Yun has great power in his hands, usurping the throne is only a matter of time, the emperor has become his puppet, but no one can find out what happened to the emperor, they can only say that the emperor is old or bewitched by Xiao Yun.

In ancient times, the officials were also able to gain the complete trust of the emperor.

"Sister, if I were just an ordinary citizen, would you still be with me?" Yuan Chen's eyelids drooped slightly, his eyes fell on the books, he was afraid that Shu Xia would despise him.

After waiting for a while, Shu Xia didn't answer him.

Yuan Chen looked up, and found that Shu Xia beside him had fallen asleep lying on the cold marble table, breathing lightly.

"Sister?" Yuan Chen called her softly.

There was no response, Shu Xia was sleeping soundly, and she would not be woken up if there was no danger.

"Sister, be careful of catching a cold, go back to the back room and go to sleep."

Just as Yuan Chen was about to hug her back, Shu Xia woke up, looked at him with half-opened cold eyes, and asked abruptly,
"what are you going to do?"

"I..." A crimson cloud bloomed on Yuan Chen's face, and he felt a sense of embarrassment that he would be caught for doing bad things.

"I just want to hug my sister back to the room to sleep, it's easy to catch cold outside." When Yuan Chen finished speaking, his face was already red and pale.

"Have you finished reading the book?"

"not yet."

"Oh, then why are you still staring blankly? Hurry up and read a book." What could be happier than studying?

"Well, I know, but sister... I'm just an ordinary person, will you still be with me?"

Shu Xia gave him a meaningful look, "Are you a fairy?"

"..."

"No, that's not what I meant. My father has resigned. He is no longer the prime minister. The Yuan family is just ordinary people. Is my sister still willing to be with me?"

The girl opened her mouth lightly, with a serious expression on her face.

"Whether your father is the prime minister or not has anything to do with you?"

"Yuanchen, even if you are a rock, I will still be with you."

Because I have no other choice.
-
"Why! Why! Why the Yuan family would rather resign and return home than me to marry into the Yuan family! What's wrong with that Shen Shuxia? How can I not compare to her! Is Xiao Muyu's status not worthy of Yuan Chen? ?!"

"Miss, calm down, don't drop things, you will hurt yourself soon." Chunrui persuaded her master, but at the same time she was afraid that Xiao Muyu would take her anger out on her.

When Prime Minister Xiao heard the news, he knew that this incident would not be a small blow to Xiao Muyu. This time, her marriage with Yuan Chen was a complete failure. The Yuan family's attitude was firm and they would never let Xiao Muyu marry into the Yuan family.

"Xiaoyu, don't smash it, be obedient, if you get angry, your father will be unhappy."

"You, go and clean up the debris on the ground, so as not to hurt the lady."

"Yes, master." Chunrui quickly cleaned up the ceramic shards on the ground. She cleaned up the shards skillfully and quickly. It is no surprise that this kind of thing happened to Xiao Muyu.

"Father, why on earth is this? The Yuan family regretted their marriage again and again, do they look down on our Xiao family? Besides, didn't you guys agree on the engagement?"

"..." Prime Minister Xiao never told Xiao Muyu that the engagement was a trick he set up for Yuan Qi. So decisive.

"That's it! I've become a big joke in the entire capital now! I've become the stuff of jokes for everyone in the capital after dinner. Why do they treat me like this?"
