Dressed as a villain, I was coveted by the male protagonist

Fortunately, the man caught it with quick eyes and hands, otherwise Qingling would escape, and disaster would be imminent. If he could not inform the master of King An's upcoming marriage in time, he might be burned to ashes by the master's anger.

The man's voice sounded sinister: "The master once said that you are very cunning, let me be more careful, you must tell the master about the news of His Royal Highness An's marriage, I believe you also know the master's methods, if you don't want to be raped by the master Cheng Roasted Dongqing, it's best to deliver the letter to the master safe and sound."

Qingling recalled the dark and servile life in Beishuo, her feathers trembled uncontrollably. Because of the trembling of her body, a few of the blue feathers fell off and fell to the ground. She called softly, as if she agreed to deliver the letter.

Afraid that it would repent, the man quickly stuffed the note in his hand into the bamboo tube under Qingling's feet. Qingling flapped his wings and flew into the sky, heading towards Beishuo. After a while, the blue shadow disappeared from the man's sight middle.

The man looked thoughtfully at the direction where Qing Ling left, and was worried. He was originally a member of the Black Feather Forbidden Army. Not long ago, he followed his master to Nanjing. When the master returned to Beishuo, he left me in Nanjing , Let me find a way to sneak into Prince An's mansion and stay with His Royal Highness Prince An.

The master also emphasized that he should pay attention to every man or woman who approaches His Highness An. If anyone has any ill intentions towards His Highness An, he will be killed. Wang Mansion, His Highness Wang An is about to marry the second lady of the Xia Mansion.

Given how much the master attaches importance to His Highness King An, if the master learns that His Highness King An is about to get married, the man can't help but shudder, wondering whether he should worry about the master or His Highness King An.

Twelve gorgeous carriages were parked in front of the Xia Mansion, and the guards carried more than a dozen loads of heavy betrothal gifts and placed them neatly in the lobby. The guards stepped forward and opened all the boxes, and there were colorful silks and satins inside. Inlaid with exquisite pearl hairpin jewelry, dazzling jewelry gold.

Everyone in the Xia Mansion in the lobby looked at the dazzling array of betrothal items, couldn't help swallowing, and couldn't bear to blink, fearing that these rare treasures would disappear before their eyes.

Eunuch Gao strode to the center of the hall with the imperial decree in both hands. Seeing this, everyone in the Xia Mansion immediately knelt down. Xia Nianzhi, who was kneeling in the crowd, lowered his head and frowned, as if he already knew the content of the imperial decree.

Eunuch Gao unfolded the imperial decree, pulled a thin voice, and said in a serious voice: "By God, the emperor said, I heard that Xia Aiqing's daughter Xia Nianzhi is gentle and mellow, with outstanding appearance. I am very happy to hear it. This is the year of King An When it is time to get married, Xia Nianzhi and King An can be said to be a match made in heaven and earth. They are the beauty of a beautiful woman, so Ru Xia Nianzhi is specially betrothed to King An as a princess. Get married in seven days."

Eunuch Gao closed the imperial decree and held it in front of Xia Nianzhi with both hands: "Miss Xia, no, it should be called Concubine An, Concubine An, please accept the decree."

Xia Nianzhi didn't accept the imperial decree immediately, and Xia's father next to him kept winking to hint that he wished he could accept the imperial decree for Xia Nianzhi.

Xia Nianzhi raised his head slowly, his eyes were as calm as autumn water, and he asked unhurriedly, "Elder-in-law, the time for getting married is too rushed."

Eunuch Gao was taken aback by the question. If he were an ordinary woman, he would be ecstatic to be named a princess. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he wished to get married tomorrow. This Miss Xia was named a princess, and she still maintained a calm and calm demeanor, as if she had been granted the title of concubine. It was someone else who got married instead of her, and she thought it was too late to get married.

Eunuch Gao's hand holding the imperial decree was almost sore, and he forced a smile with the corners of his mouth pulled: "Qin Tianjian estimates that within these two months, there will be only seven days to get married, and the Ministry of Rites has already started to arrange the wedding. Concubine An only needs to be married at ease, and Concubine An doesn't have to worry about the rest."

Xia Nianzhi took the imperial decree expressionlessly. When Eunuch Gao saw that the hot potato in his hand was finally taken away, he heaved a sigh of relief silently, bowed his hands to Xia Nianzhi and said, "My slave is here to congratulate Princess An. , now that the imperial decree and dowry have been delivered, the slave will go back and return to order."

Father Xia hurriedly got up, nodded and bowed his head and said with an apologetic smile, "Eunuch Gao, go slowly."

After Eunuch Gao left, all the people kneeling on the ground scrambled towards the betrothal gifts placed in the lobby, and the greed flickering in their eyes was clearly visible.

After delivering Eunuch Gao back, Father Xia's face was a little gloomy, and the anger in his eyes was obvious: "Why didn't you accept the imperial decree immediately and make Eunuch Gao wait for so long?"

Before Xia Nianzhi could speak, Xia Yan'er, who picked up the pearl necklace from the betrothal gift and drew it on her neck, said, "Uncle, the second younger sister will become Princess An in the future. This posture of being the master is naturally Yes, but Second Sister, isn't this posture a little too early?"

"This Eunuch Gao is a celebrity around His Majesty. If the second sister offends Eunuch Gao, you, as Concubine An, will not dare to say anything more, but the uncle is different. In case Eunuch Gao is not happy , what can I do to wear small shoes for my uncle behind my back?"

Xia Yan'er's mother took two steps forward with her fat waist twisted, her head and body were covered with bead jewelry from the betrothal gift, she waved the handkerchief on her hand, and said with a light smile, "Brother, don't even say that This child is gone, she is Princess An now, her status is higher than yours, so I can't say it."

The two sang together, seeming to be helping Xia Nianzhi to speak, but in reality they seemed to think that the heat was not strong enough, and they were secretly rubbing against each other.

Father Xia heard the words, the anger in his heart surged upwards, his face flushed with anger, and he scolded loudly: "Princess An? So what if it's Princess An? No matter how high your status is, you are my daughter, Xia Yuanlin. You haven't become a princess yet, so you are so defiant, where have you learned the etiquette and rules?"

Xia Nianzhi's cold eyes met Father Xia's eyes, the calm eyes were like a dark deep pool, unable to stir up any waves, her tone was lightly mocking: "Since my mother died, my father has ignored me for dozens of years. In [-], etiquette rules? Oh, father, you may have forgotten that you only invited Xia Weiwei to be a ceremonial mother, and I have never learned etiquette rules, so I don't understand these rules."

Xia's father's arrogance was all over his head, and it was extinguished all of a sudden, but Xia Nianzhi questioned him and made him speechless.

Xia Yan'er looked Xia Nianzhi up and down, without concealing the contempt in her eyes, and said lightly: "I don't know what His Highness Prince An likes about you. You are arrogant, rude, and disrespectful. You are an unruly person. wild girl."

Xia Nianzhi glanced at her, with a cold smile on his lips: "Even if I am an unruly wild girl, His Highness Wang An is still interested in me, not you, isn't it? "

"You..." Xia Yan'er was so angry that her lips trembled and her teeth were chattering.

Xia Nianzhi glanced at the dazzling array of betrothal gifts in the lobby, and said loudly, "Come here! Put all the betrothal gifts into the warehouse in my courtyard."

When they heard that the betrothal gift in front of them was about to be taken away, the faces of the people in the second room changed suddenly. Xia Yan'er, mother and daughter immediately clutched the precious jewelry on their bodies, and a thin and tall man stretched out his hand to block the betrothal gift. , The greedy light in the eyes is full: "Second girl, are you trying to win all these betrothal gifts?"

Xia Nianzhi knew without thinking what her second uncle, who was only interested in profit, wanted to do. She sneered, "Be the number one? You mean, you want a share of the pie?"

Second Uncle Xia saw that she was very kind, and he put on an elder posture and said, "Second girl, although this is a betrothal gift from His Royal Highness King An, you are still a member of the Xia Mansion after all, and the Xia Mansion will provide you with food and clothing. Yes, this dowry should go to the Xia Mansion, and our second wife is also a part of the Xia Mansion, so we must take one of them."

As soon as Second Uncle Xia finished speaking, Xia Nianzhi burst out laughing, and the crisp laughter echoed in the quiet lobby, especially obvious.

"You...what are you laughing at?"

Xia Nianzhi pulled up his sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, then raised his eyes and glanced at him: "I'm laughing that dogs can lick their noses."

Second Uncle Xia was stunned for a moment, and when he realized it, his face was contorted with anger: "You're calling me shameless! Xia Nianzhi, you bitch, see if I don't beat you to death."

Second Uncle Xia rolled up his sleeves, raised his big hand high, and was about to slap her in the face, but he was held up by the servants beside him, unable to move.

"What are you doing? Do you dare to stop me and seek death?"

There was a vague smile on Xia Nianzhi's lips: "If they don't stop you, they are looking for death. If something happens to Princess An appointed by His Majesty, do you think everyone in the Xia Mansion will be safe and sound? People, put all the betrothal gifts into the treasury in my courtyard, if there is one item missing, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

Xia Yaner's mother and daughter reluctantly took off the jewelry on their bodies. Compared with the expensive jewelry, they cherished their own lives and did not dare to think badly about these betrothal gifts. They could only watch helplessly. Xia Nianzhi left with a dozen loads of bride price.

In the dead of night, the stars and the moon are dim, and the flower windows in the courtyard are lit with bright lights, and the hanging curtains are half-transparently reflected by the lights.

Su Yuheng lifted the wine jar and took a sip, then laughed drunkenly and said, "I never expected that Su Jingning would like you, a woman who regards him as the enemy who killed his mother, and he is not afraid of blood splashing on the spot on the wedding night, haha Haha...I'm really looking forward to that day."

Xia Nianzhi picked up the teacup and took a sip. His long eyelashes drooped slightly. Looking at the white mist floating on the tea, he said softly, "Seven days later, we will do it at you at night. On the wedding day, there must be heavy soldiers around the Prince An's Mansion." , so it's not convenient for me to do it, when Su Jingning returns to his room, I will kill him with my own hands, and at the same time, you take the opportunity to attack the palace with your troops."

"The killing array of the chess game has been set up, and the last move is only seven days away. They will lose this game of chess."

Su Yuheng held up the wine jar, and slammed the wine jar against the wall. With a clear and loud noise, the fragments mixed with the wine were scattered on the ground.

Su Yuheng wiped the wine around his mouth with his sleeve, his black eyes flashed fiercely, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Seven days later, when I ascend the throne, I will let those who looked down on me take a good look at it." Look, who is the real emperor of Nanjing!"
