Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 812 - 812 Betrothal Gift (1)



812 Betrothal Gift (1)

Over the past few days, the Shen family had been shrouded in a very strange atmosphere. Because of the imperial edict, everyone was depressed. Although everyone tried their best to appear happy, they could not hide their gloomy expressions.

Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan went out early every day and returned late. They were probably looking for a way to cancel this marriage, but they came back empty-handed every time. That made sense. Since Emperor Wen Hui announced this imperial edict in front of the entire court, it was probably to stop Shen Xin from disobeying him.

Every time Shen Qiu saw Shen Miao, he would look guilty. These days, he gave Shen Miao some rare treasures and said, “I’m not a very capable brother, so I can only find these for you.”

Shen Miao was quite speechless with the atmosphere in the Shen family. She naturally knew that things were not that bad, but she could not tell them about it. If Shen Xin knew what Xie Jingxing was really up to, he would probably kick up a scene.

In Ming Qi, she had to take care of the Shen family, so there were many things that were inconvenient for her to do. If she went to the Daliang Dynasty and used Prince Rui’s name to execute her plan, it would probably be much easier.

While she was relaxed and at ease, others thought that she was pretending. Today, when she was sitting in the room and reading, she saw Bai Lu rush in and say, “Miss, Madam wants you to hurry to the main hall. The betrothal gift list is here!”

Shen Miao was stunned. The betrothal gift list?

Xie Jingxing was really bold. He knew that the Shen family did not like him now and even hated him to the core, but he actually dared to send a betrothal gift list. Wasn’t this adding fuel to the fire?

However, thinking about Xie Jingxing’s devil-may-care personality, it was indeed something he could do.

When they arrived at the main hall, they saw Luo Xueyan holding a long thing and looking at it. Beside Luo Xueyan, Shen Qiu and Shen Xin were also craning their heads to peep at the thing. Luo Tan covered her mouth, and Luo Ling had a complicated gaze. In short, everyone looked strangely tense.

Shen Miao stepped into the hall and realized that apart from the Shen family, there was another person standing in the hall. When she saw that person’s face clearly, Shen Miao almost choked. This person was a middle-aged man with a beard. Shen Miao had seen him before. He seemed to be a guard under Xie Jingxing. Cong Yang had once called him “Tie Yi”. This person was obviously burly and fierce. Today, he was wearing a bright red shirt. The shirt was embroidered with colorful phoenixes and auspicious clouds with thin golden threads. However, Tie Yi’s skin was dark to begin with. With this shirt, his fierce aura was completely concealed, making him look extremely comical.

Seeing her, Tie Yi bowed to her and said respectfully, “Princess Consort.”

At this moment, even Shen Qiu couldn’t help but cough. He glared at Tie Yi. “Watch your language!”

Tie Yi ignored him.

For some reason, Shen Miao wanted to laugh. Even if Xie Jingxing wanted to send a betrothal gift list, he should find a woman to deliver it.

Seeing that Shen Miao was in a daze, Luo Tan called her, “Cousin, what are you standing there for? Come and take a look at this betrothal gift list!” She winked at Shen Miao, as if she was very excited.

Shen Miao walked over.

The betrothal gift list was made very exquisitely. It was a scroll made of incense wood sprinkled with gold powder and had an emerald-green cat’s eye stone on the cover. Just the scroll itself was very luxurious. Although Shen Xin and his wife were not vain people, they were still happy that Prince Rui showed that he valued Shen Miao.
