Chapter 1,120: A Couple with Their Own Thoughts

"Okay, stop arguing!" Zhao Xiran's face darkened and she scolded. She was also very preoccupied at this time and really couldn't bear to care about her sister's affairs.

When Zhao Xiqiong told her this shyly, she felt as if he was telling a joke. Is King Chen so easily attracted to people?

She has also met King Chen. This King Chen's face is indeed extremely beautiful, but there is no other woman in his eyes. King Chen seems to be as gentle and elegant as jade. There is no wave in his eyes, no matter it is He seemed to look like this when facing everyone. Only when he saw Shao Wanru, there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

Such a man is heartless.

When they arrived at Prince Chen's Mansion, Zhao Xiran warned Zhao Xiqiong. Zhao Xiqiong used Zhao Shangshu to pressure her, saying that it was her father's intention. Now that Prince Chen's Mansion might be prosperous, she asked her to give Prince Chen a good impression before others could react. elephant.

What Zhao Xiqiong did not tell Zhao Xiran was that Zhao Shangshu felt that Zhao Xiqiong had a similar temperament to Princess Chen.

They are all the kind of women who look cold but have a bit of charm. This is what Mrs. Zhao Shangshu said. If King Chen really likes this kind of women, his own daughter will do the same!

Originally, she just listened to Zhao Shangshu's words and thought that she would take a look at it, but then she refused because she was also the legitimate daughter of Shangshu Mansion, why should she be a concubine, but she didn't expect that she would fall in love with her at first sight.

Seeing that Zhao Xiran was angry, Zhao Xiqiong lowered his head and ignored Zhao Xiran and Shao Caihuan, but his heart was still hot.

My father said that King Chen likes people with looks like his. In fact, it is not just King Chen, but many men like him, so he still has many opportunities.

Now that King Chen has spread his wings, there is no way that there will only be Princess Chen as his mistress in the backyard of Prince Chen's Mansion. Behind him is his father. With his status, he is willing to be the concubine. There is no need for any workaround at all. It is naturally a matter of course. Besides, he has grown up. Although she is not as good as Princess Chen, there is one thing that Princess Chen cannot compare with.

Princess Chen is younger than me, and I heard that she has not yet had haircuts, so she is a little greener, which is different from me.

During the draft, Zhao Xiqiong had no intention of going, so she reported illness. But now she regrets it. If she had participated in the draft at that time, what would happen to Shao Wanru!

He was the one who arrived first. His father had already taken a liking to King Chen early on, but he just didn't want to.

At the moment, I can only obey my father's wishes and go to Prince Chen's Palace as a concubine. I will talk about the future later. Compared to Princess Chen, I have my father's Shangshu Palace supporting me. It is very likely that I will have the last laugh.

After weighing this in his mind, he became more and more angry. Since his sister didn't help him, he would go back to his father. His father had some ideas.

The three people in the carriage became quiet again. They each had their own plans, but they did not interfere.

When they arrived at Xingguohou's Mansion, Zhao Xiqiong got off the carriage, got on his own carriage, turned around and headed towards Shangshu's Mansion, not wanting to stop at Xingguohou's Mansion for a moment.

Shao Caihuan went to the third room to reply to the third lady's instructions.

Zhao Xiran stood still and watched his sister-in-law and sister leave. He frowned tightly and had a bad feeling. Neither the sister-in-law nor the sister was in his control at the moment. After thinking about it, he didn't reply. Instead, he headed outside to Shao Huaan's study.

There was something in her heart that she couldn't decide on, so she had to go to Shao Hua'an to ask. She always felt that Shao Hua'an seemed to be hiding something and didn't tell her...

When I arrived at the door of the study, I saw two boys guarding outside. Seeing her coming, one boy immediately went in to report. When she came to the door, the other boy had already smartly stepped forward to salute Zhao Xiran. The boy who had just reported the news The one also said: "Grandma, please come in!"

"What is the eldest son doing?" Zhao Xiran asked casually.

"The eldest son is reading a book," the young man said.

Zhao Xiran walked into the study. Behind the desk in the study, Shao Huaan was sitting on the couch behind the desk. When he saw her coming in, he put down the book in his hand with a smile on his face, "I went to see Fifth Sister, how are you? "

His legs are not fully healed yet, so it is better to lie down and read a book. If he is tired, he can lie down and rest.

Zhao Xiran turned to sit on the couch behind the desk, looked at Shao Huaan's pale face, and sighed in his heart, are you unwilling? There must be some, Shao Hua'an must be her husband-in-law, so what if she doesn't give in anymore? Xingguo Hou's Mansion itself has declined, and it is no longer the Xingguo Duke's Mansion it once was. Princess Yuan'an can't get it back by bullying others.

Now, even the position of Crown Prince is gone!

"Fifth sister looks pretty good. Now that she's up to meet people, I think there won't be much of a problem with her. It's not like her life is in danger as rumored outside." Zhao Xiran calmed down all the thoughts in his heart and replied.

"The rumors outside must be rumors, and they are always not credible." Shao Huaan said gently, reaching out to take Zhao Xiran's hand, looking at her lovingly, "I have wronged you these days, and it's all because of my husband. That’s why you suffered so much grievance!”

"Concubine... I'm not wronged..." Zhao Xiran's eyes turned red and she lowered her head. Even though she had thousands of plans in her heart, she still felt sad when she thought of the child lost in her belly, and her eyes fell on her belly involuntarily.

If nothing goes wrong at that time, the child should be pregnant now, and in a few months, she can give birth to her own child.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault!" Seeing her eyes falling on her belly and knowing that she was thinking about the aborted child again, Shao Huaan felt more and more pity. He pulled her into his arms with force and patted her gently. Pat her, "It's okay, everything will pass. Everything will pass."

His father told him what happened back then. He was not the one who became the heir apparent, but in the end the title still fell to him. The temporary avoidance was just for a better rise in the future.

Just wait until the opportunity matures, and everything will be yours.

"Don't say that. I can't blame you for what happened. But the third sister followed me today. I was very surprised. It seems that I have something to say to the fifth sister, but I can't say it in front of me. I only asked the fifth sister to come back when. Once at the house, I said that the third aunt wanted to meet the fifth sister."

Zhao Xiran quickly controlled his emotions, sat up, pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, and regained some energy.

"Third aunt wants to find fifth sister?" Shao Hua'an frowned. He couldn't think of anything that third aunt had to do with Shao Wanru. Even when Shao Wanru was in the house before, the third aunt had nothing to do with her. Now, But suddenly looking for Shao Wanru, it was indeed strange. He should ask his father to check later, and don't let the third room get into trouble.

"It should be like this. The third sister has never appeared in front of people before. This time she asked to go with her. I felt a little strange at the time." Zhao Xiran nodded.

Shao Caihuan is very low-key now, even more low-key than before. I heard that the third room was helping her go on a blind date, but I didn’t know that she had no hair on her face. She has been wearing a veil on her face since she came out of the palace, but it has been so long, Could it be that it's not healed yet?

"You should pay more attention to the third room. Third aunt used to be a safe person, but now..." After Shao Huaan said this, a trace of sadness appeared on his face. He held Zhao Xiran's hand slightly and then said, "Now At this time, it is possible that the third uncle and the third aunt have other thoughts."

The Xingguo Hou Mansion has fallen, and it is conceivable that the third room has other thoughts, but just don't bring these thoughts to your own room.

Shao Huaan originally didn't care about the affairs of the third room, and he was not close to his third uncle. He just felt that his third uncle was not a progressive person. After his father told him some things, his heart changed drastically, and he couldn't help but pay attention to some things. got up.

My father was right, he was indeed careless!

Maybe he wasn't the only one who was careless, his mother and sister were both careless. Who would have thought that a newly found cousin would cause so many things to happen to his family.

If he had known better, he would have taken action in the first place, instead of letting his mother and sister fiddle around, thinking that they would never be able to dig out the palm in the backyard of Xingguo Hou Mansion.

After all, he was careless, and he had to pay more attention to the things in his own backyard. Shao Huaan's eyes became evil unconsciously, but when he found that Zhao Xiran was still in front of him, he immediately returned to his soft-spoken and gentle demeanor.

"I will pay attention to the third aunt and the two younger sisters. Today, Princess Chen also asked me to invite the Tai Madam out of Yuhui Nunnery. She said that she would go to see the Queen Mother tomorrow to ask for her forgiveness, and then let me invite the Tai Madam. "After Zhao Xiran nodded in agreement, he also mentioned today's events.

Shao Huaan, who was holding her hand, stiffened, suddenly raised his head, and said in a voiceless voice: "What does she want to do?"

"Princess Chen said that she didn't know that woman, and she felt that it was not good that there was no elder in the house, so she wanted to ask the Queen Mother for a favor. I also felt that it was inappropriate for my grandmother to stay in Yuhui Temple all the time. Others only treat us as The younger generation is unfilial." Zhao Xiran said following the trend.

Shao Huaan's face darkened in displeasure, and he looked at Zhao Xiran suspiciously, "Father has already decided on that matter, and I can't stop it even if I let my grandmother stop it. You can just treat it as an elder to support me in the future." , I don’t have any sons anyway, just marry her off with a daughter, and at most she’ll be accompanied by a dowry, it’s nothing, you don’t have to worry about it!”

"Why would I care about this? I'm just afraid that you do. I originally wanted to persuade you, but my grandmother is not here. It's really difficult for me as a daughter-in-law. It doesn't look like the fifth sister will help in this matter. Some."

Zhao Xiran reacted quickly and said with a bit of humility: "I'm useless, I may let my husband suffer from my father's troubles with me!"

Shao Hua'an thought for a while, his expression softened, and a smile appeared on his face: "It is indeed difficult for you to handle this matter, so let's wait until grandma comes back. Grandma will not want to see the heirs of the Xingguo Hou Mansion wandering outside. .”

"Father really wants to give that woman the status of an equal wife? If this is true, will she be laughed at by other people in the house?" Zhao Xiran frowned. In her opinion, this matter is ridiculous. An outsider can enter the house. Being a concubine is already good, but she still wants to be an equal wife, where is the dignity? Whose family will agree?

The entire Xingguo Hou Mansion will be embarrassed together, right?

"I heard from my father that this woman has another identity. We are juniors, so let's wait for my grandmother and father to make up their minds!" Shao Hua'an said casually.

Zhao Xiran's eyes flashed with doubt. What other identity does this woman have that can make others identify with her?
