Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Upon seeing this, the people knelt down and worshipped, believing that it was the Dragon King appearing.

Upon hearing the news, the emperor attached greater importance to the ceremony and appointed Baili Yan to be fully responsible for it.

Inside the Su Mansion, a feather arrow suddenly hit the pillar. Leng Xue quickly pulled out the arrow and untied the small note tied to it.

After confirming that it was important information, she immediately went to the yard and handed the note to Miss Ye Yunzi: "Miss."

Ye Yunzi took the note, read its contents, and then threw it into the candlelight to destroy it.

Leng Xue stood quietly aside waiting for instructions.

"Since it's so lively outside, let's go out for a walk." Ye Yunzi suggested.

"Ok."

The two walked to the teahouse and found it unusually empty.

Normally days like this would be very lively, but today it is exceptionally quiet.

They went straight to a private room on the second floor, and Shen Siyan's bodyguard Ye Feng was standing at the door.

Ye Feng nodded slightly in greeting, then opened the door to welcome him. In addition to Shen Siyan, there was another guest in the room - the seventh prince Baili Yan.

"Seventh Prince." Ye Yunzi bowed and greeted.

Baili Yan's eyes were fixed on her, "Don't be too restrained."

"Yes, sir." Ye Yunzi sat down calmly, her expression composed and composed, completely different from other women.

The three of them finally gathered together and sat around the table. This was their first time together, and it was specially arranged for today's Dragon King sacrifice.

Baili Yan looked at the other two and said sincerely, "Thank you both for your help."

He learned from Shen Siyan that if the Su family had not extended a helping hand in time, the theft of relief supplies would probably have been difficult to resolve.

"It's a pity... I didn't see through Baili Ye's trick." Baili Yan frowned, his fingers unconsciously clasped the teacup, and his tone was cold, "I didn't expect that he could frame Xu Chi for the crime."

"That's not a frame-up." Ye Yunzi said calmly, looking up at him, "They have been connected for a long time."

"You mean, Baili Ye has some dealings with Xu Chi?" Baili Yan was surprised.

In his opinion, no matter how clever Baili Ye's methods were, he would never be able to convince the general, who was known for his justice and dedicated to the country and the people, to participate in any conspiracy.

Hearing the word "justice", Ye Yunzi chuckled. "In the eyes of the world, Xu Chi is indeed a loyal and good general. But no one is perfect.

Especially after experiencing countless hardships, the coldness of the heart is often even greater. When the soldiers were starving and guarding the border, they saw corruption rampant in the capital and the rich and powerful enjoying a luxurious life. Such a contrast inevitably breeds dissatisfaction. "

She continued, "Bai Liye took advantage of this dissatisfaction and aroused the anger in Xu Chi's heart, suggesting that true loyalty should not be offered to such a corrupt place."

Thinking of the information she had accidentally heard in her previous life, about the secret connection between the Fourth Prince and Xu Chi, Ye Yunzi became more certain of this. She slowly drank a sip of tea and reminded him, "Your Highness must be cautious. The Fourth Prince is unfathomable, and many truths are still hidden in the dark."

Baili Yan nodded in agreement and looked at Ye Yunzi gratefully: "Thank you for saving my mother."

Ye Yunzi smiled slightly and explained that this was mainly due to Doctor Tao's prescription.

Talking about this person with superb medical skills, Baili Yan immediately showed great interest and hoped to recruit him under his command.

"He is a miracle doctor whom the head of the Shen family met during his travels. He is now temporarily living in the Shen Mansion's villa." Ye Yunzi said, turning her gaze to Shen Siyan. The tacit eye contact between the two made Baili Yan feel a little inexplicably lost.

There was a subtle atmosphere in the air, as if an invisible force was binding the pair together, making it difficult for onlookers to intervene.

Boom boom! The sound of drums came from afar, and the streets of the capital city suddenly became lively. People rushed out of their homes and filled the streets, just to see the ceremony of worshiping the Dragon King.

Baili Yan glanced at the horizon and said, "I have to go preside over the ceremony."

The three of them then stood up and said goodbye at the door.

As Baili Yan left, Ye Yunzi and Shen Siyan stood there side by side, neither of them showing any intention to leave first.

The sky was gloomy, as if it would rain at any moment.

Dongdong... the sound of gongs and drums became louder and louder. In the solemn drumbeats, drizzle began to fall, and the cool raindrops touched my cheeks.

Ye Yunzi looked up at the gray sky, "It's raining..." she whispered to herself.

The crowds on the street became even more excited because of this.

"The Dragon King has appeared."

"It must be the Dragon King who sent this rain."

Cheers rose one after another, and everyone participating in the festival became more solemn.

The rain was not heavy, but it was enough to moisten the dry land.

Ye Yunzi frowned and thought: I was in such a hurry to go out that I forgot to bring an umbrella. What should I do?

At this time, Leng Xue suggested: "Miss, please wait a moment, I will call a carriage."

"No need to bother."

A voice interrupted her.

Ye Yunzi turned around and met Shen Siyan's gaze. His eyes never left her.

"Let me take you back." he said calmly.

Ye Yunzi looked at him and found that he didn't seem to have an umbrella with him. "How are we going to send him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Siyan took off his coat calmly and said, "Come closer."

Ye Yunzi blushed. Before she could figure out what was going on, Shen Siyan had already stepped forward and used his hands to hold up his clothes to shield her from the rain.

Her breathing couldn't help but pause, her heartbeat quickened, and she pressed herself against his warm chest, able to clearly feel his body temperature and heartbeat.

"You...what are you doing..." She looked up at Shen Siyan, their faces almost touching.

Ye Yunzi's heart beat faster and her mind was in chaos.

"Come with me." Shen Siyan's voice was deep and powerful, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and then he led her slowly forward.

Under his protection, they walked together in the rain, and not a drop of rain touched Ye Yunzi.

Ye Yunzi and Shen Siyan walked side by side on the street. Her mind was blank, her face flushed, and even her ears turned red. Seeing her shy look, Shen Siyan's smile deepened.

Ye Yunzi, who is usually calm and composed, looks particularly shy and cute at this moment.

After finally finding her voice, she stammered, "Shen Siyan...what if someone sees us like this?"

Shen Siyan lowered his head and whispered to her, "Come closer to me, so others can't see you."

His words were as gentle as the wind, which made Ye Yunzi's heart flutter and her steps became hesitant.

When passers-by passed by, she instinctively buried her face in Shen Siyan's arms, fearing that others would see their intimate actions.

Not far away, Leng Xue stood in the rain, staring at the scene blankly, her expression rarely changed.

She didn't expect that adults would be so different in front of Miss Su. The rain soaked her clothes and made her feel cold.

As a servant, she should have gone to get an umbrella for them, but now she hesitated, afraid of disturbing them.
