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

There was a long line of people pursuing her, but Tao Qiming kept his distance from her, as if she was an intractable trouble.

Ji Xinying tilted her head slightly: "Doctor Tao doesn't like it? If so, I'll ask someone to change it to something else."

"no no."

Tao Qiming hurriedly took the flower pot and said, "I appreciate Miss Ji's kindness. I like these herbs very much. This way, we are even now."

Ji Xinying frowned: "How can a few herbs be compared with my friendship?"

Tao Qiming felt helpless. The mind of a woman was like a difficult book for him to understand.

He was smiling just now, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to be dissatisfied. He didn't understand how he had accidentally angered the other party again.

Ji Xinying strode into the yard: "I haven't been here for a long time. I wonder how the flowers and plants are growing now. Doctor Tao, you don't mind if I go take a look?"

"Yeah." Tao Qiming answered casually.

His mind was heavy, and he just wanted to end this meeting as soon as possible. However, Ji Xinying stopped and felt Tao Qiming's cold attitude.

She wondered if Doctor Tao was in a bad mood today. In the past, whenever she asked to see flowers and plants, Doctor Tao would always get excited. Today's reaction was indeed unusual.

When Ji Xinying entered the courtyard, she found two figures standing in the courtyard with umbrellas. She was startled and took a closer look, and found that they were Ye Yunzi and Shen Siyan.

"Yunzi!" she shouted out involuntarily.

Ye Yunzi turned around, saw Ji Xinying, and then went to greet her happily.

In a villa in the capital, the Princess of Nanyue looked solemn, holding the teacup tightly in her hand, almost crushing it. The maids around her dared not make a sound, standing quietly in the corner with their heads down.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and a man's voice came from the other side: "Princess."

A hint of excitement flashed across the face of the Princess of Nanyue, and she said eagerly, "Come in!"

With a slight sound, Long Man pushed open the door. He was dressed in black, soaked, and the rain dripped from him. He looked at his clothes and chose to stay at the door to talk.

The Princess of Nanyue asked anxiously, "What's the situation?"

"I have already investigated and found that all the remnants of the former dynasty hiding in the capital have been arrested and publicly executed, but Guiguzi is not among them."

The Princess of Nanyue breathed a sigh of relief. They had been worried that Guiguzi would be captured by the imperial court, but fortunately this was not the case.

But she still frowned and asked, "Then where is he?"

Long Man reported in a low voice: "We haven't found it yet."

The Princess of South Vietnam slammed the teacup on the table, the tea splashed out, and her brows furrowed even tighter.

"What the hell is he doing!" Ever since the incident in the Shen family, Guiguzi seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.

"How did Shen Siyan's poison get rid of him? Didn't they say he entered the palace? Why did he suddenly lead the army to quell the rebellion?"

The princess was in a state of confusion; things did not go as they had planned.

I thought everything was under control, but in the end everything turned out to be wrong. Mrs. Shen and the remnants of the previous dynasty were eventually imprisoned and died.

Long Man was silent for a moment, then said, "I guess all this is because of Guiguzi's betrayal."

"Are you saying that Guiguzi betrayed us?" The princess looked at Long Man in confusion.

"That's right, Guiguzi betrayed us!"

Long Man's voice was steady and stern: "Otherwise why hasn't he shown up yet? He must be secretly colluding with Shen Siyan!"

The princess was stunned and instinctively retorted: "How is this possible? Guiguzi is from Nanyue, how could he help Shen Siyan!"

She specially invited Guiguzi to cast a curse on Shen Siyan. Even if he was greedy, he would not dare to betray the princess of a country, because that would mean he would have nowhere to stay in the Kingdom of Nanyue.

But Long Man said expressionlessly: "Then who removed the poison from Shen Siyan? No one in the capital can remove the poison, unless the person who put the poison on him removes it himself."

The princess's face turned pale and she felt uneasy.

If Guiguzi really betrayed them, then everything would make sense. It turned out to be an elaborate scam, and they were completely deceived.

"How dare he be so bold!"

The princess angrily swept the tea set on the table to the ground, and the pieces scattered everywhere.

"I asked him to cast the curse, but he dared to rebel? I must find him and make him taste the consequences of betraying me!"

"I will continue searching." Long Man replied.

"Search every corner of the capital to find him!" the princess ordered.

"Yes, sir." Long Man lowered his head and agreed, with raindrops sliding down his cheeks.

The princess suddenly realized that if Guiguzi had already defected to Shen Siyan, then her previous actions must have been known to the other party, including the poison she had given Shen Siyan.

Will Shen Siyan take revenge on her for this?

The princess's expression changed slightly, and she felt a panic: "What if Shen Siyan attacks us? He will definitely not let me off easily for what we did before."

Long Man was very calm: "Princess, don't worry. You are the envoy of Nanyue. Shen Siyan doesn't have the courage to touch you. If he touches you, he will be an enemy of Nanyue."

The princess felt a little relieved after hearing this. She nodded and said, "That's right. Even if he holds a grudge against me, he won't dare to attack me easily."

"I will strengthen your protection force." Long Man added.

"it is good."

The princess calmed down a little and regained her usual arrogance: "Okay, go down and find Guiguzi for me as soon as possible!"

Long Man took the order and left. Raindrops fell on the ground, as if reflecting his heavy mood.

In the thatched cottage.

The four of them stepped into the hall. The brazier in the center radiated warmth, helping everyone dry their clothes that were wet by the rain.

Ye Yunzi and Shen Siyan stood in the rain for a long time, their shoes and socks soaked, the cold seeping into their bones. After staying close to the brazier for a while, they gradually felt the warmth.

Ye Yunzi looked up at Ji Xinying: "Xinying, have you fully recovered?"

"Of course I am! Look how energetic I am!" Ji Xinying smiled brightly. After recovering from her illness, she seemed to be more lively, as if she wanted to make up for the lost time.

Ye Yunzi looked apologetic: "I was supposed to visit you at the Marquis' Mansion, but I have been too busy lately to make the trip."

Ji Xinying waved her hand gently: "It's okay, there's no need for these formalities between us. I actually wanted to go play with you, but my father insisted that I take care of my health before going out."

The two women had a lively conversation.

After a while, Ji Xinying accidentally caught a glimpse of Shen Siyan, and couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and finally asked: "Why are you two together? And you share an umbrella."

The news of Shen Siyan's cancellation of the engagement had already spread throughout the capital. Ji Xinying was shocked when she first heard it and felt worried for Ye Yunzi.

I thought the two would never meet again, but today I saw them sharing an umbrella. The atmosphere was warm, just like a couple in love.

"What's going on with you?" Ji Xinying's eyes moved between the two of them, full of confusion.

"Haven't you called off the engagement? Why are you still together?"
