Xiaoxiao pulled Rong Yan in.
[Upgrade.]
The space dinged. Xiaoxiao didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the sound in the space was clearer and louder than before.
[Upgrade successful. Current space level is 90. Total points are 89,500.]
After the normal update, the space gave out the brocade pouch as usual.
Since the pouch was already here, Xiaoxiao naturally had to open it.
[Reward 1:1 x 1 ranch speed multiplied by 10.]
[Reward 2: Unlock a skill’s usage limit.]
[Reward 3: Hidden item.]
Xiaoxiao didn’t lack anything for the time being, so she still chose option two and unlimited the number of times she could use the space projection function.
Although Rong Yan couldn’t see the selection panel, he could hear the notification from the space. He asked curiously, “What’s the hidden item?”
The space said mysteriously: [I can only tell you that this is a very important and useful function for Master!]
Xiaoxiao smiled without saying anything. She pulled Rong Yan and closed her eyes to feel the especially fresh air when she leveled up.
Usually, they would take deep breaths before leaving. However, when she opened her eyes again, she saw Rong Yan standing opposite her, holding various flowers like a magic trick. “Xiaoxiao, can you marry me and be my only wife?”
Xiaoxiao blushed. “Where did you learn this?”
She took the flowers and blushed shyly as she looked at Rong Yan. Rong Yan, who had always spoiled her, held her shoulders and made her look at him.
“There’s no need to learn. Everything I say comes from the bottom of my heart.”
“The betrothal gifts have been prepared long ago. The matchmaker can come at any time. I’ve long memorized the auspicious day for our engagement from the Imperial Astronomer.”
“Xiaoxiao, are you willing to marry me?”
Just as she said “Mm”, Xiaoxiao’s breath was taken away.
“You have been aggrieved.”
Rong Yan’s love was passionate but restrained. The two of them had been as sweet as before for the past few years. He had always been polite and never forgot to respect her.
So, what was there to be shy about?
She was willing.
The news that the Third Prince and Princess An’ning were about to get married and the rumors of Princess An’ning being the “lucky star of Great Xia” spread throughout the Imperial Capital. The citizens sincerely offered their blessings.
“A perfect match made in heaven.”
“I keep feeling that our lives will be better after these two get married.”
“I hope the heavens will bless the Third Prince and Princess An’ning so that they can have children early!”
“Aiyo, look at you. You’re even more anxious than the Third Prince. The wedding date hasn’t been decided yet, but you’re already helping them get pregnant?”
The person who was teased waved his hand. “Sigh, isn’t this just a matter of time? Who can’t tell that the Third Prince likes the princess so much? He was inseparable from her!”
“Hehe, that’s right. Who would have thought that the iron-blooded general who made the Xiongnu people tremble in fear on the battlefield would be so gentle when facing his sweetheart?”
“It’s not just the princess. The Third Prince is usually amiable and polite to us commoners. He’s never arrogant and willful. He’s also quite respected in the army. Sigh, isn’t the Third Prince also the lucky star for us commoners?”
“If not for him, would Xiongnu be so honest?”
“I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince originally advocated fighting with Xiongnu again some time ago. It was the Third Prince who argued with reason so that we wouldn’t have to suffer from war again.”
“Really? Third Prince is really kind-hearted. He saves people from trouble. On the other hand, His Highness the Crown Prince, sigh…”
“Hey, stop it, stop it. You can’t say that!”
Everyone laughed and gradually left as they passed by. Unbeknownst to them, the Crown Prince, who was dressed in casual clothes, had already turned ashen.
“Rong Yan is a lucky star who saves people from trouble? I can only get a sigh from them?”
“How can I not compare to him?”
However, he could not find the advantages of being able to suppress Rong Yan other than his background and his mother’s family. He was even angrier.
The guards around him kept quiet out of fear. No one dared to make a sound.
When she got home, Xiaoxiao recalled Rong Yan’s words of “aggrieved”.
She knew what Rong Yan meant. In Great Xia, marriage had always been decided by the parents, but he did not have a mother he could count on.
The next day, Xiaoxiao found the love token jade pendant Rong Yan had given her. “I’m not aggrieved. Look, I have this.”
Rong Yan did not know how the heavens created a warm woman like Xiaoxiao. His heart warmed, and he pulled her into his arms again.
“Cough, cough.” A light cough frightened the two lovers so much that they suddenly separated. The jade pendant almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Xiaoxiao grabbed it quickly.
“Aunt Xiao.”
It was rare to see him being shy after growing up. Xiao Ran decided to watch for a while longer, but Gu Chang’an pulled his daughter away unhappily.
“Men and women shouldn’t touch each other.”
Xiaoxiao said weakly, “Father, we’re engaged.”
Gu Chang’an glared at her, then sighed. “A grown woman can’t be kept.”
He said sourly, “Your mother was called over by His Majesty after the court assembly today.”
Xiaoxiao blinked and Gu Chang’an said, “That brat actually couldn’t wait a day. He only got permission from your mother and me yesterday and today, he got His Majesty to issue a decree for the two of you to get married on the nearest auspicious day.”
Xiaoxiao: /(
She was not shy. She just wanted to blush and respond to the scene.
“Aiya, I didn’t expect her to get married so soon.”
Gu Chang’an was still muttering, “We agreed to let you stay for a few more years…”
Xiao Ran chuckled. “I’ve already stayed for two more years. Besides, why do you think Ah Yan chose his Prince’s Residence so close to our General’s Residence back then? Isn’t it because it’s convenient for us to interact?”
“He already told us that Xiaoxiao can come back at any time after we get married. From now on, when Ah Yan and I go to court, you father and daughter will stay at home as companions. It’s no different from now.”
Gu Chang’an felt that it was right, but he still felt suffocated.
He could not bear to part with his daughter, whom he had finally found.
Xiao Ran tried harder and whispered into his ear, “Don’t you want to have a little baby that looks like Xiaoxiao when she was young?”
Gu Chang’an’s eyes lit up. “Then it’s best to have another daughter!”
He had seen a few secret recipes for giving birth to daughters in the palace in the past and was waiting for him to study them!
Looking at her parents’ backs as they left, Xiaoxiao scratched her head and looked at the jade in her hand.
Rong Yan thought that she was being poked and hurriedly opened her palm to check. Xiaoxiao was tickled by him and she smiled. “I’m fine, but that jade seems a little strange.”
The two of them picked up the jade again and realized that it was broken.
Xiaoxiao was quite embarrassed. “Perhaps I used too much strength in a moment of desperation just now. Perhaps the space’s ability to strengthen the body is too strong. I’ve been feeling that I’m too strong recently.”
However, Rong Yan said, “It’s not that you’re strong, but this jade is broken.”
Only then did Xiaoxiao realize that the part where the jade was split was not a crack, but the part that they had originally treated as a pattern.
“There seems to be something in this jade..”
