Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 747

747 Exposed (2)

Shen Miao originally thought that Princess Rong Xin was going to ask about Xie Jingxing today, but she did not expect Princess Rong Xin to not mention it at all. Instead, she changed the topic and started talking about how Emperor Wen Hui decided to postpone Shen Miao’s marriage a few days ago.

“My brother has always been stubborn. He seems to want you to be his daughter-in-law very much. After you left that day, I personally went to talk him out of it, but he didn’t listen to me. Later, it was all thanks to Prince Rui.” She looked at Shen Miao and smiled. “I think General Shen has already told you about it, right?”

Shen Miao nodded and became vigilant.

“Although it’s not right for me to say this, it’s all thanks to Prince Rui. If not for his words, my brother wouldn’t have changed his mind, and you would definitely end up marrying the crown prince.”

!!
Shen Miao remained silent. She did not expect Princess Rong Xin to suddenly hold her hand and say with a smile, “Previously, I saw that you seem to be very close to Prince Rui. After all, I’m much older than you and have more experience. Prince Rui has a special identity. I thought that you were young and would inevitably be used by him, but I didn’t expect him to be a good person. This time, I think he said those words to help you out, right?”

Princess Rong Xin did not have such an attitude towards Prince Rui previously. Shen Miao became more and more cautious, but she did not panic at all. She only smiled and replied, “Prince Rui is noble, and I’m nothing compared to him. I’m not so arrogant as to think that Prince Rui will speak up for me.”

“I know you’re too awkward to tell me.” Princess Rong Xin was especially stubborn and strange today. She said, “I promise you I won’t tell anyone.”

Shen Miao was about to speak when Princess Rong Xin turned around and started talking about something else.

Princess Rong Xin was especially excited today. She talked with Shen Miao for a long time. Just like when she mentioned Prince Rui just now, Shen Miao thought that Princess Rong Xin would continue to ask, but Princess Rong Xin suddenly changed the topic and asked if Luo Xueyan had found a suitable young man for her.

Princess Rong Xin had no intention of ending the conversation and sending Shen Miao back home. Shen Miao did not understand what Princess Rong Xin was up to.

Jingzhe and Gu Yu wanted Shen Miao to go back before dark for safety reasons. However, it wasn’t their place to speak, so they could only wait anxiously.

After finishing the last pot of tea, Princess Rong Xin stood up. Jingzhe and Gu Yu heaved a sigh of relief. They thought that they could finally go back. Unexpectedly, Princess Rong Xin held Shen Miao’s hand affectionately and said with a smile, “Come with me to take a walk in the courtyard.”

Jingzhe and Gu Yu were puzzled. Princess Rong Xin had lived here for so many years and walked around the courtyard every day. Why did she ask Shen Miao to walk around the courtyard with her? Moreover, it was very cold outside in the dark. Why would she want to walk around the courtyard? Were all the princesses of the royal family like this?
