774 Marrying You (5)
Only then did Huangfu Hao smile. After clinking glasses with the crown prince, he said, “However… Do you really want to marry Shen Miao?” Seeing the crown prince’s puzzled expression, he explained, “Back then, at the tribute banquet, I saw that Shen Miao was not a soft person. I’m afraid she’s very fierce and untamable. Are you so confident in taming her?”
“That’s nothing.” The crown prince waved his hand indifferently. “No matter how untamable she is, she’s still a woman. As long as she’s a woman, once she marries me, I have ways to make her obedient. To be honest, when the crown princess married me, she was also fierce. Now, she’s as obedient as a kitten.”
When Huangfu Hao heard this, he did not say anything else, but he snorted in his heart. Princess Ming An’s death was still a mystery, but Huangfu Hao felt that her death was definitely related to Shen Miao. Later, for some reason, his relationship with Fu Xiuyi was used by someone. Now, Fu Xiuyi was deliberately keeping a distance from him. The Shen family was not ordinary, and there seemed to be someone guiding Shen Miao in the dark. Although the crown prince was not weak, he might not necessarily win against Shen Miao.
However, this was unimportant to Huangfu Hao. He was happy to watch the show. He drank and chatted with the crown prince before leaving.
…
On the other side, in the minister counselor’s mansion, someone came to deliver a reply written by Shen Miao.
Shen Miao agreed to come, but she would bring Luo Tan with her.
Wang Bi was very happy to see Shen Miao’s reply. He said to Shen Dongling, “Didn’t you say that the two of you don’t have much contact? I didn’t expect her to agree.”
Shen Dongling was also a little surprised, but she smiled and said, “It seems like she quite misses me after having not seen me for a long time. After all, we’re the only sisters left in the family.” She took the reply from Wang Bi and read it carefully.
To be honest, Shen Dongling did not expect Shen Miao to reply to the invitation and even agreed to come over to enjoy the incense with her. With Shen Dongling’s understanding of Shen Miao, she knew that Shen Miao was cautious by nature and would not come. The reason why she wanted to write an invitation to Shen Miao was because she wanted to prove to Wang Bi that she was doing her best to help him and hoped that he would treat her well in the future.
Unexpectedly, Shen Miao agreed.
Shen Dongling’s mind raced. The reason why Shen Miao brought Luo Tan along was probably because Luo Tan was good at martial arts. There would definitely be many guards with Shen Miao to ensure her safety too. Since Shen Miao dared to come, she must have made a foolproof plan.
However, Shen Dongling did not mind. Her goal was not to scheme against Shen Miao to begin with. Shen Dongling nudged Wang Bi. “Husband, since Fifth Sister agreed to come, it’s easier for us to execute our plan. Invite the crown prince and Huangfu Hao over too. In the future, Huangfu Hao can tell the outside world that he fell in love with Fifth Sister when he was enjoying the incense here. Doesn’t it sound very convincing?”
“You women are indeed more thoughtful.” Wang Bi smiled and put his arm around Shen Dongling’s shoulder. “With a wife like this, what else can I ask for?”
Shen Dongling smiled, but she was thinking about something else.
Shen Miao had always been good at scheming against others. Back then, when Ren Wanyun and Shen Miao fought, Shen Dongling saw it all. In the end, the first branch won. If there was anyone truly smart in the entire Shen family, it was Shen Miao.
