Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Are you happy with that?

Are you happy with this? Wei Bingyan didn't understand what he meant for a moment, but soon she knew that he was talking about the story of Uncle Song proposing to the old man.

Willing or not? She certainly didn't want to.

The man standing upright in front of her is the future emperor, the one that His Majesty and many ministers secretly want to help. If she marries him, she knows what kind of life she will have to face in the future.

No, that's not right, that's not the problem.

The difficulty is that she doesn't really know him yet. Just as the master said, when two strangers with no feelings for each other get married, they don't understand each other enough, don't trust each other enough, and will just live their own lives afterwards. That is not the life of a couple.

She didn't want to repeat the life of her previous life.

The Sixth Prince stared at her silently without pressing for her reply.

He knew that both Uncle Song and the Empress Dowager wanted to find a good marriage for him. At that time, when Uncle Song mentioned that he wanted to find a match for him, he was reluctant to accept it. Later, when he found out it was her... He thought, if it was her, that would be great.

She was different from other women. Even though he had met her only very rarely and had only heard some news about her from others from time to time, he did not believe at all that she was really an evil and unfilial woman as the rumors said.

In his eyes, she was just a clever and cunning lady and a kind doctor.

"Sixth Prince." Wei Bingyan looked up and looked at him with penetrating eyes, "Why do you want to marry me?"

He was slightly stunned. He didn't expect her to ask this question.

Why marry her? He hadn't thought about it.

"You're fine," he said.

Wei Bingyan smiled slightly, "This is not enough, Sixth Prince, I don't want to."

"Why? Is it because of the crown prince?" The Sixth Prince asked with a frown. The man is still unmarried and the woman Yunying is unmarried. Is there any other reason?

"I don't want to be a concubine, nor do I want to treat a beautiful marriage as a joke. Bingyan will only marry the man of her dreams in this life." Wei Bingyan said softly. Yes, this time she must marry the person she truly loves. In fact, the life she wants most is to sleep in the same bed and die in the same grave.

The Sixth Prince would not be the one she wanted.

"I don't take this as a joke!" The Sixth Prince remained silent for a long time before speaking softly.

"Bingyan thanks the Sixth Prince for his kindness." Wei Bingyan bowed. Perhaps she already knew what would happen in the future, so it was difficult for her to have any other thoughts about the Sixth Prince.

He is the future emperor, how can he give her the peaceful life she wants?

The Sixth Prince smiled, his face was not unhappy, but calm. In his heart, he felt even more strange about Wei Bingyan. He suddenly wanted to understand her very much, what kind of woman she was. "Sorry to bother Miss Wei today."

Wei Bingyan bowed her head and said goodbye calmly.

She walked up to Mingyue and pretended to be angry and glared at her.

"Have you finished talking?" Mingyue looked back at the Sixth Prince, but was frightened by his arrogant and sharp eyes. She quickly turned her head away and took Wei Bingyan's arm in a flattering manner.

"Who asked you to bring me here?" Wei Bingyan raised her eyebrows and let Mingyue go without any preparation.

Mingyue said, "In fact, I have already told that guy that you and your third senior brother have been childhood sweethearts, and you will definitely not agree to marry the Sixth Prince. But that guy said that you have never met the Sixth Prince, so you should meet and talk more often to know who is suitable..."

Under Wei Bingyan's gaze, Mingyue spoke more and more softly and timidly.

"Could it be that when the Sixth Prince and I meet, we will fall in love at first sight?" Wei Bingyan asked in a bad tone. Even if she wanted to bring her and the Sixth Prince together, she really shouldn't have found such a way. But looking at Mingyue's ashamed and timid expression, she really couldn't get angry. "Is this what Princess Mudan meant?"

Mingyue opened her eyes wide, "How...how did you know?"

As expected! Wei Bingyan sighed. She had always felt very strange. Princess Mudan had been in Jinyun City for many years. She had many opportunities to return to the capital, but why didn't she go back? Why did she use her own time to come back?

Who was that skilled swordsman who had disappeared without a trace? After Princess Mudan came back, she never mentioned that man.

She really doubted the purpose of Princess Mudan's return!

Why was she trying so hard to bring her and the Sixth Prince together? No matter what, she was still her student, right? If she and the Sixth Prince were to meet here at this time, what would the Crown Prince think if he knew about it?

Alas! She was just overthinking. She really didn't expect the people around her to have any schemes.

"Don't do this again. I really don't like it." Wei Bingyan knew that Mingyue was definitely not as thoughtful as she thought, so it was not easy for her to blame her. She just hoped that she would not be used again next time.

"Bingyan, I just thought that since you don't want to be betrothed to the prince, and your third senior brother hasn't proposed to you, the only option is the Sixth Prince. I didn't expect to make you unhappy." Mingyue said softly.

"I'm not unhappy." Wei Bingyan said.

Mingyue looked at her in confusion, "So...what did you talk about with the Sixth Prince? You two seemed to be having a great time."

"Just say I don't want to!" Wei Bingyan said with a smile, hoping to tell some people through Mingyue not to arrange such things for her without authorization.

No one can force her to do something she doesn't want to do.

"Got it." Mingyue nodded reluctantly.

At this moment, Wei Bingyan no longer had the heart to appreciate the flowers or the scenery with Mingyue. She walked back to the pavilion and wanted to look for Xiao.

The Sixth Prince looked at Wei Bingyan's back as she left gracefully, and his resolute lips couldn't help but purse. She didn't want to...

She said she wanted to marry her lover.

Sweetheart... She didn't say that she had a sense of belonging in her heart, and that was enough.

……

Princess Mudan accompanied Xiao to rest in the pavilion, but the two of them had not met many times and they were at a loss for words after just a few sentences. Xiao was embarrassed to ask someone to stay with her all the time, so she smiled and asked Princess Mudan to call other guests and not to stay with her.

I had originally thought of asking Mrs. Xiao about her opinion on the marriage between Wei Bingyan and the Sixth Prince, but every time Princess Mudan mentioned Wei Bingyan's marriage, Mrs. Xiao would brush it off, as if she didn't want to talk about such a topic.

She also knew that it was not appropriate to discuss Bingyan's marriage at this time, but if she didn't act quickly, it would be bad to let Bingyan betrothed to the prince.

The Sixth Prince is handsome and has no female relatives in his mansion, so Bingyan would definitely like him.

The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still. Princess Mudan apologized to Xiao with an apologetic look on her face, told the maid to take good care of Xiao, and walked towards the small garden with the corners of her skirt embroidered with egg-yellow peonies fluttering in the wind.

Xiao rubbed her forehead. She knew that when she came to the Prince Ping'an's Mansion today, many people would be wondering about Er Bingyan's marriage. She just didn't expect that even Princess Mudan would be so concerned...

She didn't expect Bingyan to be the prince's concubine, but she also didn't want Bingyan's marriage to be arranged by others.

"Madam, are you feeling unwell?" Xia Yuezhu asked hurriedly and worriedly when she saw that Xiao looked sleepy.

Xiao smiled at the two maids and sighed very softly, "I'm just worried about your young lady. It seems that everyone has ulterior motives towards her recently."

"Don't worry about the young lady, we still have the old man." Xiao He said.

"And Young Master Li!" Xia Yuezhu said with a smile. They were all Xiao's personal maids, so they naturally knew who Xiao liked deep in her heart.

Xiao smiled, "You two women."

"Mrs. Wei, why don't you all go for a walk in the small garden? The weather is nice and the scenery outside is just right." The harmonious and natural atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by an abrupt voice.

Shen Rouruo walked in with her maid, smiling.

Xia Yuezhu and Xiaohe had smiles on their faces. They stood upright, one on the left and one on the right, beside Xiao, looking at Shen Rouruo warily.

"Concubine Shen, please forgive me for not feeling well and being too out of control." The smile in Xiao's eyes gradually faded, and she looked at the smiling Shen Rouruo coldly and indifferently.

"I haven't congratulated Mrs. Wei yet for being pregnant at this age. Her luck is really enviable." Shen Rouruo sat down in the armchair directly opposite Xiao and glanced at Xiao's tender belly.

Xiao smiled faintly, "Things like having a baby... sometimes it really does require luck and fate. I also wish Concubine Shen to have a baby soon. After all, you are not in your twenties anymore. It would be bad if you delay it a few more years."

The smile on Shen Rouruo's lips froze slightly, and her eyes suddenly turned cold. "Mrs. Wei, you care about others instead of your own daughter. A self-centered mother like you, other than being a burden to future generations, I really don't know what use you have."

"Concubine Shen doesn't need to worry about this." Xiao said coldly. She was very angry in her heart. She was really blind at that time. She felt that if Shen Rou was a kind-hearted person, she should not have drawn her sword to help at the post station that day.

"I don't have the leisure and elegance to worry about this. If it weren't for a mother like you, how could Wei Bingyan have the bad reputation of being an unfilial daughter? Who of the sons of the wealthy families in the capital would dare to marry such an evil and unfilial daughter? The prince is willing to take Wei Bingyan as his concubine, so you two should be secretly happy. Do you really think your daughter is a treasure?"

Shen Rouruo took a sip of tea and spoke in a voice that was neither too low nor too high. Seeing Xiao's face becoming increasingly paler, she felt a sense of satisfaction deep in her heart.

Xiao's breath was stuck in her abdomen, making it difficult for her to breathe. She was of course aware that she had dragged Bingyan down, but she felt ashamed and uncomfortable to be exposed to the bloody scene beside her. However, she had to pretend to be firm, "This is a matter between us mother and daughter. Even if Bingyan is misunderstood and her reputation is lowered, she is still the legitimate daughter of the Wei family, unlike you, Shen Rouruo."

"Hehe, what's the difference? You're destined to be a concubine anyway. How can a prince's concubine be any more graceful and elegant than other princes' concubines?" Shen Rouruo smiled grimly and spoke softly.

Xiao's fingers were trembling with anger. If Shen Rouruo had attacked her fiercely with other things, she could have remained calm, but when it came to Bingyan, it would be difficult for Xiao to deal with it calmly.

"His Majesty hasn't even issued an edict, but you can already know what His Majesty means. It seems that Concubine Shen is truly extraordinary. She can even guess the Emperor's will so accurately. I wonder who told you this. Could it be that the Fourth Prince told you?" Outside, Wei Bingyan's voice sounded coldly.

Shen Rouruo's expression changed slightly after hearing this. She turned around and looked at Wei Bingyan who was standing upright in front of the door. "Everyone knows about this matter. Don't try to slander the Fourth Prince."

"Everyone knows?" Wei Bingyan laughed sarcastically and walked in slowly. "Who dares to say that this is the will of His Majesty? Who dares?"

They dare to speak out even at the risk of their lives. How dare they guess the emperor's intentions?

Shen Rouruo's face turned pale and blue. Wei Bingyan dragged the Fourth Prince into this. This involved too many things. If it got out, others would think that the Fourth Prince was now able to decide His Majesty's opinion...

The Fourth Prince would definitely think that she had ruined his plans and might have angered him!

"Mrs……"

While Wei Bingyan and Shen Rouruo were in a stalemate, Xia Yuezhu's loud scream came from behind.
