Venomous Empress Reborn

723 Admiration (2)

Seeing that Shen Miao was silent, Feng Anning took the initiative to speak. She glanced at Shen Miao. Feng Anning was no longer as arrogant as before. She was probably still feeling guilty about what had happened previously, and her tone was apologetic. She said, “We’ve all heard the rumors. Now, all the people in the capital are afraid of marrying you. Why don’t you… Why don’t you marry my brother? My brother is good at martial arts and has a good personality. If you marry him, I can also take care of you.”

Feng Anning had always been a person who did not know how to beat around the bush. Her words were honest, but she was really thinking for Shen Miao. Luo Xueyan’s expression softened a lot. Shen Miao asked, “Do your parents know about this?”

Feng Anning hesitated for a moment before saying, “At first, my father didn’t agree, but after our persuasion, he let us be. My father has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He definitely won’t stop us from doing this!”

Shen Miao did not doubt this. Just from Feng Anning’s straightforward personality, she knew that Master Feng was probably a straightforward person too.

She looked at Feng Zixian and asked, “Young Master Feng, do you think I’m pitiful, so you want to help me out by marrying me?”

Everyone was stunned to hear that.

Luo Xueyan found it surprising that Shen Miao didn’t shy away from talking about her marriage at all and that her expression was perfectly calm. Feng Zixian did not expect Shen Miao to ask him so bluntly.

He quickly came back to his senses and answered, “My sister has mentioned you many times before. I admire your talent and temperament… It just so happens that you have the intention of getting married.” After saying that, his face turned even redder.

Luo Tan chuckled when she heard that, but Shen Miao was a little helpless. She did not know how Feng Anning usually described her to Feng Zixian to make him think so highly of her.

Feng Anning looked at Shen Miao nervously and said, “My brother is definitely better than the Crown Prince!”

Shen Miao almost laughed out loud. If others heard this, they would probably say that Feng Anning was disrespectful. However, Feng Anning really took her seriously. Shen Miao looked at Feng Zixian, who looked a little like Feng Anning. He looked honest and should be an upright person.

Shen Miao smiled and said, “If I make a decision simply based on the few words you said, it’s unfair to me and to you as well. Don’t you think so?”

When Luo Xueyan heard Shen Miao’s words, she was confused. What Shen Miao meant was that she had other thoughts about her marriage. However, as a mother, she did not know what Shen Miao was up to. Shen Miao was unwilling to marry the crown prince and did not seem to be interested in these young talents. Luo Xueyan was a little anxious for her.

She thought that no one would dare to go against the royal family and ask for her daughter’s hand in marriage. She didn’t expect three people to be willing to marry her daughter. Luo Ling, Su Mingfeng, and Feng Zixian were all talented and outstanding, but Shen Miao showed no enthusiasm towards marrying them.

Feng Anning said, “But if you don’t hurry up, it’ll be too late!”

That was true. Who knew when the imperial edict would be issued? In the past, there would naturally be a lot of time for Shen Miao to think it through, but now that the time was pressing, there was no room for careful consideration.

Shen Miao waved her hand. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly saw Jingzhe rush in and say anxiously, “Miss, someone from the palace is here!”
