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

Madam Shen stood up and said, "Since you are here, follow me to the gate of Shen Mansion to welcome His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

As soon as Madam Shen finished speaking, she heard a casual and lazy voice coming from outside the front hall.

"Madam Shen, it is impolite for me to come here uninvited, so I will not bother you to greet me personally."

As Murong Che approached, everyone in the hall fell silent.

Old Madam Shen stepped forward and forced a smile on her face, "I pay my respects to His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

The people in Zhang's house also saluted him.

Shen Mi was standing behind Old Madam Shen, almost speechless. But at this very moment, this villain was coming.

The corners of Murong Che's lips curled up slightly, and his previous indifference was gone, but instead there was a hint of casualness.

"Old lady, you don't have to be so polite. Get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Rui."

Old Madam Shen stood up, welcomed him to his seat, and then told the maids and servants to pour him tea.

"I wonder if the tea in the palace suits the taste of His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

Murong Che reached out, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.

Then he smiled and said, "It's quite to my taste."

He looked quietly at Mrs. Zhang and the Zhang family.

Mrs. Zhang immediately lowered her head and glanced at Zhang Huaian out of the corner of her eye.

I have to say, if you look closely, Murong Che and Zhang Huaian are very similar in some ways.

Especially her eyebrows and eyes, which look very much like the late queen.

Old Madam Shen forced a smile. She was not very welcome to this uninvited guest.

"I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Rui has come to visit our Pingyang Marquis Mansion for some important matter?"

Murong Che placed the gift box in his hand steadily on the table and said with a smile: "The reason why I came here today must be something important."

He turned his head and his eyes fell on Shen Mi. Seeing Shen Mi looking at him in surprise, he suddenly chuckled.

"Madam Shen, I came here today just like the Zhang family did, to get a girl from the Shen family."

"Engagement?" Old Madam Shen was a little puzzled and immediately looked at Shen Li.

"Could it be that His Royal Highness Prince Rui has taken a fancy to Li'er?"

If he didn't like Shen Li, why would he choose today?

Murong Che played with the teacup in his hand and leaned lazily on the chair.

He smiled and said, "The second young lady of the Shen family is smart and clever, and I like her very much."

"I came here today to tell Old Madam Shen that I intend to marry Shen Mi."

"Your Majesty and Grandfather already know that Shen Mi's name has been entered into our royal jade disc."

"It would be inappropriate to deceive Madam Shen again."

"Today I am here to discuss my marriage with Shen Mi."

"Royal Jade Disc?" Even Shen Feng and Shen Yu on the side were a little surprised.

"My sister actually appeared on the Royal Jade Disc ahead of time."

Shen Mi lowered her head, as if she knew why Murong Che came.

Ordinary families cannot hold two weddings in a year. If Shen Li's marriage is settled, if she wants to marry Murong Che, it will have to be postponed to later.

But unfortunately, Murong Che chose to come today.

Shen Feng looked at Murong Che. This man really didn't follow the rules and let Shen Mi enter the royal jade disc first.

Even if the Shen family is unwilling, there is no reason to refuse.

The old lady of the Zhang family, Madam Zhang and Zhang Huaian, who were standing by, were also a little surprised.

Old Madam Shen's hand holding the cane trembled slightly, and her eyes fell on Shen Mi.

"Third girl, is this true?"

Shen Mi sat upright in the chair and nodded.

"Grandma, I shouldn't have lied to you."

"Can……"

Madam Shen took a deep breath and said, "That's all."

Murong Che clearly felt that Madam Shen was not very happy.

He knew something about Madam Shen's temper.

Marquis Pingyang of the Shen family, Old Madam Shen, would never let Shen Mi marry him, and he had already prepared himself mentally.

Let Shen Mi sign the marriage certificate with him and write his name on the royal jade plate.

Although it is a bit despicable.

At this moment, Old Madam Shen on the chair forced a smile.

"Mi'er has been raised in the countryside since she was a child, and she doesn't know the etiquette and rules."

"How can you be worthy of His Royal Highness Prince Rui, who is of noble status?"

"How could this girl win the heart of His Royal Highness Prince Rui? Could it be because of what happened that year? Your Royal Highness Prince Rui..."

Madam Shen's words stopped abruptly, and Murong Che looked at Shen Mi with a smile.

He smiled and said, "Madam Shen is overthinking. Although the incident back then was facilitated by Marquis Pingyang, it has nothing to do with the other members of the Shen family."

"I am not marrying her to take revenge on the Shen family."

Old Madam Shen felt helpless.

If Shen Mi had not been included in the royal jade record, even if Prince Rui had agreed to the marriage, she would have to go before His Majesty to cancel it.

But now, Shen Mi has to marry into the royal family even if the Shen family is unwilling.

Murong Che is powerful, but his reputation in Yanjing City is not very good.

She didn't want Shen Mi, a beautiful woman, to be destroyed in his hands.

Thinking of this, Madam Shen sighed.

"I didn't know that Mi'er's name had already been written into the royal jade disc by King Rui."

"Since Prince Rui has said so, and His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty know about it, I have no choice but to agree."

"It's just... Mi'er is still in mourning, and Shen Li's marriage has just been decided."

"I'm afraid the wedding will be postponed until the year after next."

At this moment, Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting in her seat, spoke.

"Madam Shen, this is a great joyous event."

"Now Li'er and Huai'an are engaged, and the second lady is engaged to His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

"Why not, the two sisters get married on the same day."

"We have had a custom since the founding of Dayan that a family cannot hold two weddings in a year. If we can hold them on the same day, it is also feasible."

Shen Mi held the teacup and lowered her head to continue drinking tea.

After a while, he looked up and saw Murong Che opposite him with a smug smile on his lips.

Old Madam Shen on the side was a little embarrassed.

She really didn't want Shen Mi to marry the villain Murong Che.

But given the current situation, I have no choice but to agree.

She looked at Shen Mi and asked, "What about Mi'er? What do you think?"

"Are you willing to marry King Rui?"

Shen Mi said calmly, "It's all up to grandma."

Old Madam Shen had a blank expression on her face, suppressing her dissatisfaction in her heart.

However, Shen Mi and Prince Rui may have been together for a long time.

It was also included in the jade disc, and the Shen family could not refuse this proposal.

"In that case, what Madam Zhang said makes sense."

"Since you have entered the Imperial Marriage Jade Plate, Grandmother has no choice but to help you two be together."

"Since Your Highness Prince Rui is sincere to Mi'er, I will naturally not refuse your request."

"It's just that Mi'er is young and her mother passed away early. I hope Your Highness Prince Rui can be more tolerant of her in the future."

Murong Che nodded slightly, "Of course."

"Madam Shen, don't worry."

It was not until dark, after the Shen family sent away Prince Rui and the Zhang family, that things calmed down.

The betrothal gift from Prince Rui's Mansion to marry Shen Mi was also delivered.

Old Madam Shen sat in the front hall, watching the boxes of betrothal gifts being carried into the house, and patted the armchair.

"What is this all about?"

"Yuan'er, mother didn't do what she promised you."

In front of the mansion gate, Murong Che walked up to Madam Zhang.

"Madam Zhang, can I have a word with you alone?"

Mrs. Zhang's face froze, she clenched her hands tightly and looked at Murong Che.

"What does Your Highness Prince Rui want to ask? Why not ask it here?"

Murong Che looked around and raised his eyes to see Zhang Huaian looking at him.

Zhang Huaian politely saluted him and walked to Madam Zhang, "Mother, since His Royal Highness Prince Rui wants to talk to you alone, go ahead."

"Son and grandmother, we are waiting for you here."

Mrs. Zhang nodded, and when she lowered her eyes, she saw the Ruyi jade pendant on Murong Che's waist. She followed Murong Che alone and came to a corner.

"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, why don't you just say it."

Murong Che nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Madam Zhang, don't be nervous."

"When my mother was alive, you and I were close friends."

“When she died, I was only about four years old, still away from home, and unable to return.”

"I heard that on the day the Queen Mother gave birth, there was a baby girl in her belly who died at birth. Do you know where this baby girl was buried?"

"Where did the other half of my mother's Ruyi Jade Pendant go?"
