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

Thinking of this, Baili Yan shuddered involuntarily, recalling Shen Siyan's past words and deeds. His wisdom and means made his back cold.

Baili Yan suddenly raised his head and looked straight at Shen Yuming.

"Didn't you say you could foresee the future? Why don't you know Shen Siyan's true identity?"

Shen Yuming lowered his head, hiding his emotions.

"In my dream, he was just a minister favored by the emperor, not the eldest prince."

"How could you know nothing about such an important matter?"

Shen Yuming was speechless, and his heart was also full of doubts. He didn't understand why this incident was so different from his memories of his previous life.

In the previous life, it was the fourth prince who finally ascended the throne, and the seventh prince rebelled and seized the throne.

But in this life, the Fourth Prince's scheme was exposed early on, and he was stripped of his status as a prince and disappeared.

It was originally thought that the seventh prince would be able to inherit the throne smoothly, but unexpectedly, the eldest prince suddenly appeared.

Now it seems that the eldest prince is the most legitimate heir to the throne.

The seventh prince was just an alien usurper. Once this secret was revealed, his status as a prince would be in jeopardy.

Shen Yuming felt a headache. The development of things was completely beyond his control. He didn't understand why it had come to this.

Baili Yan was feeling nervous and restless, pacing back and forth in the room, as anxious as a trapped animal.

Finally, he stopped in front of Shen Yuming and asked with a worried look on his face:

"What should I do? My father will make Shen Siyan's identity as the eldest prince public tomorrow. By then, the whole world will know that he is the eldest prince! How can I survive in the future?"

"Father has always been obsessed with Concubine Luo, so he naturally favors Shen Siyan."

"In the past, Shen Siyan was highly valued by our father. Now that he has become the eldest prince, he will definitely be given more power. I'm afraid the position of the crown prince will belong to him!"

At this point, Baili Yan became even more anxious, and the panic in his heart made it almost impossible for him to breathe. He was so anxious that he grabbed Shen Yuming's shoulders and shook him hard.

"Tell me, how should I deal with this?"

Shen Yuming felt a little annoyed by being shaken around, and his brows were furrowed, but he knew that he couldn't get angry at Baili Yan.

He tried to calm down and said softly, "Your Highness, please calm down."

"Calm down? How can I calm down?"

Baili Yan pushed Shen Yuming away, and the latter staggered back a few steps before steadying himself.

"Once Shen Siyan becomes the eldest prince, he will have the capital to compete with me for the position of crown prince! How can I stay calm?"

Baili Yan was furious and tried to relieve his inner fear by speaking loudly.

Shen Yuming silently clenched his fists, the anger in his heart almost bursting out.

He was more anxious than Baili Yan because this was a matter of life and death for him.

Recently, he had felt that familiar burning sensation in his chest again, fate’s way of warning him that if he didn’t make the right choice, he would repeat the same mistakes and suffer the same tragic end.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Yuming suppressed his anger and spoke slowly: "Your Highness, it is useless to be anxious now. It is a foregone conclusion that Shen Siyan will be restored to the status of the eldest prince."

"Then what should I do now?"

"Your Highness, you should consider another more important matter first."

Baili Yan raised his head, his eyes full of doubt: "What's the matter?"

"Your Highness, have you forgotten the blood collection incident in the palace? Someone deliberately set up a trap to expose your flaws. This person is very likely to know your true identity."

Baili Yan's face turned pale in an instant, he almost forgot about that incident.

If he had not taken the poison beforehand, his blood might have been drawn forcibly, exposing his secret.

Shen Yuming's expression was serious, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "I suspect that this matter is related to Shen Siyan."

"Shen Siyan?" Baili Yan was confused and didn't understand the connection between the two.

Shen Yuming narrowed his eyes, as if thinking about something: "Shen Siyan helped you deal with the Fourth Prince before, and was very close to you. Maybe he found out about your identity by secretly investigating it."

"what?"

Baili Yan's expression changed drastically, and a chill ran down his spine. This possibility did exist.

He once trusted Shen Siyan very much and revealed many secrets to him.

"Therefore, I speculate that this blood sampling incident was most likely planned by Shen Siyan. If this is true, everything makes sense."

"This this……"

Baili Yan was speechless, his whole body was cold. If Shen Siyan really discovered his secret and planned all this, the consequences would be disastrous.

He felt weak all over, took a few steps back, and sat down on a chair.

"Then what should I do? If the mastermind behind this is really Shen Siyan, how should I deal with it?"

"There is no definite evidence for this matter, it's just my guess. Your Highness, could you send some people to me? I will find out the truth as soon as possible."

Shen Yuming already had a plan in mind, and the first thing he had to do was to investigate Shen Siyan's situation.

Baili Yan suffered a heavy blow, his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't think calmly. Hearing Shen Yuming's request, he immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll send someone to you."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Shen Yuming hurriedly left the Seventh Prince's Mansion and began to deal with affairs.

Baili Yan stayed alone in the hall, cold sweat constantly coming out of his palms, muttering to himself: "Shen Siyan, Shen Siyan!"

Shen Siyan regained his status as the eldest prince, and Madam Shen was canonized as a first-rank lady for her contribution in raising him.

The Shen family has come out of their previous grief, the atmosphere has become cheerful, and the future seems bright.

People in the capital are also discussing this matter.

"Who would have thought that the second young master of the Shen family was actually the eldest prince back then? No wonder he was able to achieve such success at such a young age!"

"Indeed."

Some people regretted it deeply. If they had known this would happen, they should have let their daughter get closer to the Second Young Master Shen, and perhaps she could have become his concubine.

More people felt fortunate that the Shen and Ye families cancelled the engagement, otherwise it would be Miss Ye who would be successful at this moment, and others would have no chance.

The noble ladies also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

When they heard that the Second Young Master Shen was going to marry Miss Ye, they felt very disappointed, thinking that a man as talented as the Second Young Master Shen should be worthy of a better woman, rather than Miss Ye, who had a bad reputation.

The scandal of the Ye family was known to everyone, especially the fact that Madam Su divorced her ex-husband and left the Shen Mansion with her daughter, which had already spread throughout the capital.

Fortunately, the engagement was cancelled.

Now that they knew Shen Siyan was the current crown prince Baili Mingxuan, all the women felt even more fortunate, and all kinds of thoughts arose in their minds.

"Who the hell are the Ye family? They actually dare to dream of rising to prominence!"

"It would be great if I could become the eldest prince's concubine!"

"Hurry up and prepare the gifts and send them to the Shen Mansion! Pick something precious!"

All the major families went to the Shen Mansion to congratulate, and brought their most beautiful daughters with them, hoping to attract the attention of the eldest prince.

Even if I can't attract the eldest prince, it's good to catch the eye of Young Master Shen!
