The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

Shen Mi nodded. "I want to see the Fourth Master. Can you please let him know?"

"My last name is...Bai."

The concierge frowned, "Bai?"

"Miss, you came at an unfortunate time. The Fourth Master has been handling military affairs in the military camp these days and is not at home now."

Shen Mi asked, "Then do you know when the Fourth Master will be back?"

The concierge shook his head, "This kid really doesn't know."

"However, I have been gone for several days. I don't know if I can return home today. Miss, why don't you go back first?"

Shen Mi lowered her eyes. If it was one day later, Shen Li would suffer in prison for one day.

If Shen Li confessed under torture, she would be branded with the crime of murdering her biological father for the rest of her life.

Even if she gets out of prison, this stigma will stay with her for the rest of her life.

She didn't want to see her beloved sister suffer like this.

She must find a way to get Shen Li out of the government office as soon as possible.

She sent people to the Yanjing Prison, and they were firm in their attitude, saying that there was witnesses and evidence that Shen Li was the murderer.

Among them were people from the Crown Prince and the Duke's Mansion. Even if she had doubts about this matter, they would not care.

What's more, their purpose is to make Shen Li marry Prince Xin or ruin Shen Li's reputation.

The sky gradually darkened and there was silence in front of Prince Rui's mansion.

Shen Mi squatted on the ground, looking at the scene in front of the door. She had never begged the Fourth Master before. This was her first time begging him, and perhaps also the last time.

In the middle of the night, the sounds of insects and birds chirping fell into my ears, and the doorman came over.

"Young lady, why don't you go back first? It's so late and the Fourth Master probably won't be back."

Shen Mi bit her lip. "It doesn't matter. I'll wait until he comes back."

It was not until the second half of the night that the sound of horse hooves finally appeared in front of Prince Rui's palace.

"Miss, the Fourth Master should be back."

Yun Lan helped Shen Mi up from the ground, looked ahead, and saw a horse galloping out from the night.

The man on horseback stood tall, wearing silver armor and had a stern expression.

After Murong Che got off his horse, the doorman walked over.

"Fourth Master, there is a girl looking for you, she said her surname is Bai."

Murong Che frowned slightly and caught a glimpse of Shen Mi with red and swollen eyes.

"Shen Mi."

Shen Mi hurriedly walked to his side.

"Fourth Master."

The girl's gentle voice was like a needle, falling into his ears, making him feel distressed.

He lowered his eyes and looked at her: "Let's talk inside the mansion."

Shen Mi followed Murong Che and went straight to the study.

The door of the study was closed.

Shen Mi looked at the tall figure in front of him and slowly walked over.

She reached out carefully and hugged Murong Che's waist from behind.

"Fourth Master."

The man's delicate face and eyes dimmed slightly.

This is the first time Shen Mi has taken the initiative like this.

From behind, a girl's gentle voice came.

"Fourth Master, can you save my sister?"

"I know I owe Fourth Master a lot. As long as Fourth Master rescues my sister Shen Li, I can repay you in any way Fourth Master wants."

Murong Che turned slowly and looked at her eyes which were red from crying.

He already knew about the Shen family's affairs when he just arrived at the military camp. He must have guessed that Shen Mi would come to Prince Rui's Mansion, so he came back early.

His fingers rested on the girl's red eyes, and he looked at her quietly.

"Your eyes are so swollen?"

"The Shen Mi I know is not like this."

"Shen Mi, I already know about the Shen family's affairs, don't be sad."

"You...are not alone."

Shen Mi bit her lip and looked up to meet his eyes.

The candlelight beside him flickered slightly, his outline was clear, and I could see my own reflection in his eyes.

She stretched out her hand slightly and slowly moved into his arms.

"Fourth Master, my sister is in poor health and has been ill for many years. She cannot withstand torture at all."

"You are the Fourth Master of Yanjing City. You are in a high position and have great power. You will find a way to get her out of prison."

"My father is gone, and my mother is gone too. I am an orphan. I cannot lose my sister again."

"I will do whatever you want me to do to repay you, as long as my sister can come out."

The man's eyes scanned her face quietly.

He reached out and slowly held her in his arms.

"You said you wanted to repay me, but do you know what I really want?"

"Shen Mi, you should know what I want."

Shen Mi whispered, "Fourth Master, what do you want?"

Murong Che looked calm

"When you narrowly escaped death in the desert that day, you said you wanted to have a child with me. Did you really mean it?"

Shen Mi was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.

"I said it myself. I really want to have a child with the Fourth Master."

The man raised his lips slightly and looked at her quietly. "What if I say that I want you to keep your word?"

Shen Mi was slightly startled and pulled her dress tightly with her hands.

Now that she has been betrothed to the Crown Prince, even if she wants to be with the Fourth Master, she has to wait until the engagement is cancelled.

Or the prince is dead.

The man's magnetic and hoarse voice came into her ears.

He said word for word: "I want you to marry me, bear children for me, and stay by my side peacefully."

"Your sister, I will help you get out."

"But, I want you to belong to me completely and only me."

Shen Mi froze in place, and the two were silent for a moment.

Murong Che slowly pulled her closer, and his hot air penetrated into her ears.

"I saved your life, you should pay it back."

Shen Mi pursed her lips and said, "Fourth Master, but I have now been given to the Crown Prince by His Majesty."

"If you really want me to marry you, wait until I cancel the engagement with the crown prince."

Murong Che raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I can't wait."

"It's just an imperial edict. This imperial edict means nothing to me."

"You don't have the three letters, nor the six ceremonies, and you haven't signed the marriage certificate, so it means nothing."

"If you want to repay my kindness, sign the marriage contract with me."

Shen Mi's eyes met his. She pursed her lips and saw that the coldness in his eyes was less.

On another table in the study was the marriage certificate, with the golden handwriting neat and elegant on the red rice paper.

She didn't expect that Murong Che was so bold that he didn't even care about the emperor's edict.

But she had no choice. Her sister was in prison now. If she was any later, she didn't know how she would be tortured.

Crown Prince Murong Jing and the Queen plotted against her, designed to kill her father, frame Shen Li, and put the Shen family in danger. It was impossible for her to really marry the crown prince.

She raised her head slightly and looked at Murong Che, then tiptoed slightly and moved closer to his lips.

Her breathing quickened, and she pressed her lips against the man's thin lips in a flattering manner.

Murong Che leaned over, knowing that she was trying to save Shen Li and please him.

Under the dim candlelight, there are two intertwined figures.

After tasting the tenderness of her lips, Murong Che reached out and held her steady.

Shen Mi's voice was gentle in his arms.

"I am willing to sign the marriage certificate."

"I am willing to marry the Fourth Master."

Murong Che hugged her, his breath was very close to her.

"The marriage certificate has been signed, and I will write your name on the royal jade disc."

Shen Mi took a deep breath.

"Before the Crown Prince's engagement is cancelled, I hope the Fourth Master... can keep it a secret."

She knew that if the Crown Prince knew about her entanglement with the Fourth Master, she might be used to blackmail the Fourth Master again.

Behind the prince, there is a queen who is extremely cunning.

"I will avenge my Shen family myself, and there is no need for the Fourth Master to intervene."

"I will kill my enemies myself."

The man put his lips to her ear, his voice hoarse. "I know."

"When you are done with the mourning period, you and I will get married and be husband and wife for life."

Shen Mi lowered her eyes, not knowing that the Fourth Master had even brought the royal jade disc.

I'm afraid that the Fourth Master will not be willing to return the jade disc for the time being.

If the prince knew, he would not know how he would feel.

The mourning period in Dayan is different from that in Liguo. The mourning period in Liguo is three years, while in Dayan it is only one year.

In the silent room, Shen Mi signed her name on the marriage certificate stroke by stroke.

She looked at Murong Che again and wrote her name on the jade plate.

At nightfall, she returned to the Shen Mansion.

Shen Li has returned to Qingfengyuan from the government office.

When Shen Mi saw the dim candlelight coming from Qingfeng Courtyard, she rushed in crying with joy.

"Sister."
