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

Mr. Shen was buried peacefully, and the entire Shen Mansion was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere.

Shen Siyan stood upright in the mourning hall, staring silently at his father's tablet without saying a word.

He stood like this for the whole day, his heart filled with sorrow. Whether in this life or the previous one, the only person who treated him sincerely was this father.

Although he was not Shen's biological son, his father was unbiased and taught him to the best of his ability.

Shen Siyan roughly examined his father's body, and the coroner also confirmed that there was nothing abnormal and he was not murdered.

However, he always felt something was wrong. In his previous life, Mr. Shen was still alive and well, so why did he suddenly pass away this time?

Just as he frowned and looked puzzled, Mrs. Shen came over from a distance. She caught a glimpse of Shen Siyan standing there, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

"You stay here and guard, don't let anyone else get close. I want to talk to the Second Young Master in private."

The servants obeyed the order and stepped back, and Mrs. Shen walked towards Shen Siyan alone.

Hearing footsteps, Shen Siyan turned around and saw his mother. His thoughts paused for a moment, but he still whispered, "Mom."

Madam Shen looked at her son carefully, and this time she was not as cold as before. She was surprised to find that Shen Siyan's face was surprisingly similar to the emperor's when he was young.

"What does mother want to talk to me about?" Shen Siyan asked calmly. He was puzzled because his mother's attitude today was completely different from the past, without the hostile look in her eyes.

Mrs. Shen slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the spirit tablet of Mr. Shen.

"Before he died, the master told me something about you."

Upon hearing this, Shen Siyan looked up at his mother.

"About my background?" This question touched his heart. Although he had experienced two reincarnations, he only knew that he was indeed not a descendant of the Shen family, but he had no way of knowing more details.

For a long time, he had almost given up on finding answers, thinking that he was just Shen Siyan.

"Just a few days ago, the master had a premonition that he didn't have much time left, so he revealed your true identity to me." Mrs. Shen's face was calm, but she was telling lies.

Shen Siyan frowned, this was not in line with his father's usual style.

If my father was really seriously ill, he would definitely tell him the secret that had been hidden for many years in person instead of conveying it through others.

There was something wrong with what the mother said.

Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Siyan with flickering eyes.

"I always thought you were born to my father's mistress, so I was harsh on you all these years. If I had known the truth earlier, I would never have treated you like this. Si Yan, can you forgive your mother?"

Shen Siyan remained silent. He knew his mother's character very well. How could he not see her hypocrisy after years of living with her?

"Mother, please just speak directly."

"Okay, I won't hide it anymore." Mrs. Shen was too lazy to continue pretending. She was worried that Shen Siyan would have a gap in his heart. After all, she had treated him so badly before.

If she had known earlier that he was the eldest prince, she would never have treated him like that. Instead, she would have taken good care of him.

All this was because of my father. He kept his mouth shut, thinking he could keep the secret forever.

"In fact, your real identity is the eldest prince, the son of Concubine Luo."

As Mrs. Shen finished her words, the whole room fell into silence.

A hint of surprise flashed across Shen Siyan's face. Although he had guessed about his identity, he never thought that he was of royal descent.

"Princess Luo? How is this possible? Didn't the eldest prince die a long time ago?"

He suddenly realized that Baili Ye's hostility towards him in his previous life flashed through his mind. It turned out that it was because he might threaten Baili Ye's throne, so he wanted to destroy him at all costs.

Shen Siyan smiled, and everything finally became clear. Mrs. Shen saw Shen Siyan was stunned, and thought he was shocked and at a loss, but she didn't know that he already knew everything.

"It's true. Luo Fei is your mother. My father told me this himself."

"Si Yan, you should have enjoyed glory, but you were framed and had to hide your identity. But now, the Shen family will help you regain your rightful position."

Mrs. Shen was in high spirits, as if she saw the throne right before her.

However, Shen Siyan's face remained calm, without much fluctuation in his heart.

After knowing the truth, he became more determined. He did not desire power. In his previous life, he was forced to take a high position. In this life, he only wanted to live a peaceful life with his lover.

"No, I don't want to be a prince."

When Mrs. Shen heard this, it was as if cold water was poured over her head, and all her plans instantly vanished.

"What did you say?"

"Let the past be the past. The eldest prince is gone. Now I am just an ordinary person, Shen Siyan. If you are not satisfied, let me leave the Shen family."

Mrs. Shen was so shocked that she was speechless. She couldn't understand why anyone would refuse the supreme power.

"Si Yan, you are the eldest prince now, and you may become the crown prince in the future!"

Shen Siyan stood quietly, his eyes clear and firm. He had made a decision.

Shen Siyan is aloof and indifferent, with no interest in power. After two reincarnations, all he desires is a peaceful and tranquil life.

Mrs. Shen was in a state of confusion. If Shen Siyan was unwilling to inherit the throne, wouldn't their plan be ruined?

"Mom, if there's nothing else, Si Yan will take his leave now."

"Wait!" Madam Shen couldn't help but call him, her face livid, her eyes as sharp as a knife, staring at him fiercely. Why did all the luck come to him, and why could he still say so calmly that he refused the throne?

Whether he likes it or not, he has no choice in this matter!

Shen Siyan is an indispensable key figure for them. Once he loses control, the consequences will be disastrous. If he dares to resist, she will definitely not show mercy.

"You can sit in that position! Why give it up?" Mrs. Shen almost squeezed out these words from between her teeth.

Shen Siyan looked straight at her, without a trace of warmth in his eyes.

"Mother, is this your wish, or is there someone behind this?"

Mrs. Shen was disturbed by this sudden questioning and her eyes were wandering.

"You...how can you say that?"

"I advise you to give up these dangerous ideas. Don't let the Shen family suffer because of this. Even if you don't consider the family, you should think about your other son Shen Feng."

Shen Siyan lowered his head to hide the bloodshot in his eyes. He already knew that his mother was plotting a rebellion with the remnants of the old dynasty.

In the previous life, when the conspiracy was exposed, the Shen family fell into despair.

In order to preserve his family's reputation, Shen Siyan had to personally end the lives of his family members to set things right. The world only saw his cruelty, but did not know how deep the pain in his heart was.

After saying that, Shen Siyan left with a chill. Madam Shen stood there in shock, her heart filled with fear. The secret she had hidden for so many years was revealed, and a hint of murderous intent appeared in her eyes.

She hurriedly left home and went to Lord Yin to discuss countermeasures.
