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

"In compliance with the will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims that Shen Li, the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Pingyang, who is respectful and obedient, and of a virtuous character, is hereby betrothed to the principal wife of the Prince of Qi. An auspicious date will be chosen for the wedding."

After the voice of the imperial edict was read, King Qi handed the edict to Shen Li.

Shen Li knelt on the ground, her hands trembling slightly, biting her lips tightly, and took the imperial edict.

The King of Qi reached out and helped her up, "Li'er, get up."

He called out in a very affectionate way, but Shen Li unconsciously shrank back.

As if sensing Shen Li's resistance, the King of Qi angrily swung his sleeves.

His expression suddenly changed: "Shen Li, the concubines in my palace are obedient. You will be treated as sisters in my Qi Palace. I will not let you suffer any grievances."

"Now that my father has issued an order, you will be my Princess Qi."

"To be a princess, you must act like a princess. I don't like your half-hearted look. Do you think I will wrong you by going to my Qi Palace?"

"Sister." Shen Mi walked over and held Shen Li's body steadily.

The Marquis of Pingyang on the side was furious and looked at the King of Qi with gritted teeth.

He is only a marquis. If he fights with the King of Qi in the Shen Mansion and it gets to His Majesty's ears, it will not be good. He can only find a way to cancel the engagement.

When the King of Qi saw that no one in the Shen Mansion welcomed him, he shook his sleeves and walked away.

When he reached Mi's side, he stopped and sneered, "Second Miss Shen, I know you don't want me to marry Li'er. Unfortunately, I disappoint you."

"You have to call me brother-in-law from now on. Li'er will have to give birth to children for me in the future. What can you do to me?"

He whispered in two different voices, "Even if you know that there are concubines in my palace who are willing to eat people and leave no bones, so what? Your sister still has to marry me, and you still have to accept the fact."

"Do you think you can really turn the world upside down? Humph, you overestimate your own abilities!"

After saying these provocative words, the King of Qi turned away with a wave of his sleeves.

After King Qi left, Shen Li put down the imperial edict in his hand and knelt down with a plop.

"Dad, I won't marry!"

"If you want my daughter to marry the King of Qi, I would rather die!"

Pingyang Hou helped Shen Li up with a distressed look on his face, and said softly: "How could Daddy let you marry him."

"Don't worry, I will go to His Majesty some other day and ask him to cancel your engagement."

He suddenly remembered the dream Shen Mi had told him in the study before, and suddenly felt creepy.

Shen Mi sighed, helped Shen Li sit down, and looked at Marquis Pingyang.

"Dad, my sister will not marry the King of Qi."

"However, it depends on Daddy. His Majesty will ask the King of Qi some questions in the court someday. Daddy will then take advantage of the situation and ask His Majesty to cancel the engagement."

"The concubines in Prince Qi's mansion are very cunning. If you go in, you will fall into an abyss."

Pingyang Hou frowned slightly, not knowing the deeper meaning of Shen Mi's words.

He sighed and said, "Now that His Majesty has issued an order, it is difficult to disobey the imperial order. As a father, I will do my best to cancel this marriage."

"Help Li'er first and go down to rest."

Shen Li was weak, so Shen Mi had to help her back to her room to rest.

In Qingfeng Courtyard, Shen Li's eyes were red.

Shen Mi comforted her: "Sister, don't worry, Daddy will find a way."

"However, Mi'er guesses that the prince of the Yongchang Marquisate should be anxious now."

Shen Li wiped her tears and choked up, "Mi'er, are you still making fun of your sister?"

Shen Mi pursed her lips and murmured, "Sister, didn't you say that the young master of the Yongchang Marquisate doesn't care about you?"

"Let's see if he's sincere. If he is, he will definitely find a way."

Seeing that Shen Li was in a much better mood, Shen Mi reached out and took Shen Li's pulse again. Shen Li's pulse was stable.

"You take a rest first. I'm going to discuss something with Daddy."

"kindness."

After Shen Mi left Qingfeng Courtyard where Shen Li was, he went to the study of Pingyang Hou. In the study, Pingyang Hou was still sitting on a chair reading a letter. When he raised his eyes, he saw Shen Mi walking in.

"Do you have anything else to discuss with your father?"

Shen Mi nodded and spoke slowly: "Dad, a few days ago, the Queen asked her daughter to come to the palace to check her pulse."

"When my daughter saw that the queen's pulse was unstable, she prescribed a medicine for her on the spot."

"These past few days, my daughter took out all her old medical books and looked through them. She found another prescription that might be more effective."

"Can you bring your daughter to the palace another day so that she can go to the Queen's bedroom for a consultation?"

"Besides, the queen needs three or four days to recover. Father may bring his daughter to the palace for three or four days in a row."

Pingyang Hou frowned, looked at Shen Mi who looked calm, and asked, "Do you really want to enter the palace?"

Shen Mi nodded: "My daughter really wants to go."

Pingyang Hou sighed, as if he noticed something was wrong with Shen Mi. He smiled and said, "Now, the prince has not chosen a concubine yet. If you go there often, it will only cause gossip."

"However, there will definitely be a girl from our Shen family who will marry the prince."

"Now Shu'er is engaged, and your sister is also engaged. You are the only unmarried and unengaged woman left in our Shen family."

Shen Mi's heart sank and he looked towards Marquis Pingyang.

"Daddy, what do you mean?"

Pingyang Hou frowned and said, "Daddy's idea is that one of the Shen family's daughters must marry into the Eastern Palace."

As Pingyang Hou finished speaking, Shen Mi's face turned cold.

"Father, if you want your daughter to marry the prince, then you don't want me as your daughter anymore."

"The day my daughter marries into the Eastern Palace will be the day she is destined to be honored. I would rather die than marry the crown prince."

"you…"

Pingyang Hou was stunned by Shen Mi's words. He did not expect Shen Mi's attitude to be so firm.

Throughout Dayan, there were many people vying for the position of Crown Princess, but his own daughter was so opposed to it.

He thought Shen Mi went to the Queen's palace to please the Queen and wanted to marry the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace.

Little did they know that Shen Mi had another purpose in entering the palace.

Shen Mi pursed her lips, already seeing some anger on Pingyang Hou's face.

She said, "If the Shen family really wants a girl to marry into the Eastern Palace, then father will cancel the engagement between Shen Shu and the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion. I believe my third sister will be happy to marry the prince."

Pingyang Hou threw the letter in his hand, frowned, and looked up at Shen Mi.

"How can this work when you come up with all these bad ideas?"

"Mi'er, could it be that you have found a man you like?"

Shen Mi slowly sat down on the chair, poured herself a cup of tea, picked up the cup and took a sip.

"I don't want to tell Dad."

As if amused by her words, Marquis Pingyang laughed out loud.

"Okay, okay, you're older now, it's normal to have a man you like."

"There are countless talented and accomplished young men from high-ranking families in Yanjing City. If you can find a good son-in-law for me, my father will be happy."

"It's just that you just returned to Yanjing. You are young and don't understand some things. Don't let yourself be blinded."

"Dad doesn't want the man Mi'er loves to be a dangerous person like King Rui."

"Dad, I can't bear it. I don't want my daughter to fall into the hands of that kind of person."

When Shen Mi heard the word "Prince Rui", her hands froze and her face looked a little uneasy. She put the teacup on the table.

"Dad, I asked you to bring me into the palace not to please the queen, but as a doctor, I should be responsible for them."

"Okay, Dad got it. Go down and I'll take you to the palace another day."

"Thank you, Daddy. I'll go down first."

Having said that, Shen Mi left the study and went straight back to Lanyue Courtyard.

Yunlan just came in from outside the door.

"Miss, the King of Qi has asked His Majesty to issue an edict. Could it be that he really wants the eldest daughter to marry into the Prince of Qi's mansion?"

Shen Mi frowned and placed the chess piece on the board.

"Of course not."

"These few days, send people to inquire about the places where the King of Qi often goes, and by the way, find a few people to replace the three pairs of military boots you had before."

"Put the totem made by the tailor on the military boots and tell the assassins not to hurt the King of Qi. If they can make the King of Qi suspicious of their identities, they should withdraw immediately. Otherwise, the situation will get out of hand and the Crown Prince will know about it."

Yun Lan nodded, "Yes, Miss, I will do as you command."

Watching Yun Lan leave, Shen Mi washed up and went to bed. She lay on the bed, thinking that Zhang Huaian must be worried.

At this moment, in Qingfeng Courtyard, Shen Li drank some medicine and went to bed to rest.

After the candle in the room went out, she tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, the north window creaked open. Shen Mi frowned and immediately stood up, and saw a young man in purple clothes climbing through the window and entering the room.

"Who?"

As the figure got closer, Shen Li subconsciously reached out and pulled aside the curtain, and saw Zhang Huaian, dressed in purple and with an extraordinary figure, standing in front of her bed.

Shen Li raised her eyes and met his.

That familiar deep voice came into my ears: "Ari, I'm sorry."

The moment she saw Zhang Huaian, Shen Li smiled bitterly and her eyes instantly turned red.

She sneered and said, "You are now my future brother-in-law, Shen Li. What are you doing here?"

"Zhang Huaian, we are late."

The girl said this, biting her pale lips and lowering her head.

The hot tears fell on her slender white wrists.

The room was silent, but the sound of tears rolling down could be heard.

Zhang Huaian's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something.

His eyes rolled as he looked at Shen Li at the moment, and he spoke with restraint: "A Li, we still have time."

"I have discussed with my parents about breaking off the engagement with Shen Shu. Can you please not marry the King of Qi?"
