C3 A way to do both

Although the Prince Feather with such a noble identity wouldn't go crazy and kill people like the sickly husband that people spoke of, life after marriage was obviously not easy either.

Since it was not the case, and he was standing high and mighty, Ban Xia decided not to dwell on the matter of the marriage.

Seeing that the time for the divorce was nearing, Shen still had not come up with a way to win both of them, and couldn't help but feel even more bitter.

In the short span of a few days, Mu Lian, the young miss of Shang Shu Fu, had become a lot thinner, revealing a rare haggard look, her complexion no longer as red as before.

When the Shen saw it, his heart ached even more.

"Madam, do you really want to watch how Eldest Miss marries the Prince Feather?"

The trusted follower of the Shen was also on the side, feeling anxious.

Shen sighed heavily. As long as she could think of a way, how could she be willing to put her own daughter into a fire pit?

"Madam, this servant has some things that I'm not sure if I should say or not." The trusted follower looked as if he wanted to say something, but he hesitated. He seemed to have something in his throat that made it difficult for him to speak.

"If you have something to say, then just say it, there's no need to beat around the bush." Shen was too lazy to put on a Owner Mother posture since they were already on fire.

"Madam, have you forgotten that there is another lady in this mansion? "Although that concubine born young lady is not really favored, she still has the blood of the old master in her body, and is also the Second Miss ?" His trusted subordinate suddenly mentioned Ban Xia.

The Shen was a shrewd person, so he quickly understood the meaning behind his personal follower's words.

"In any case, Your Majesty's decree only says that the young miss of Shang Shu Fu, the old master's daughter, will be married to the Prince Feather. However, the decree does not directly state which young miss it is.

The trusted follower of the Shen was precisely looking for Ban Xia's idea.

If Ban Xia could marry as the daughter of the Shang Shu Fu, then, it wouldn't be considered as the Shang Shu Fu resisting the decree, and the entire mansion could be preserved. The old master's face, needless to say, wouldn't be hurt at all, and when Shen thought of this, he felt that this was a rare method that could protect both their beauty.

"This idea is very good!"

Hearing the praise of the female master, his trusted follower was naturally happy, but then he started to worry.

"It's just that the young miss isn't willing, but is Ban Xia the little girl willing to agree? If she doesn't agree, this matter will be difficult to resolve! "

For a marriage like this, anyone would be unwilling to marry a girl who was usually involved with a girl.

Shen snorted out from his nostrils, "This matter, it's not up to her to be willing!"

With her decision made, she had decided to sacrifice this Ban Xia and protect her own daughter as well as the entire mansion.

"Come here. I have something I need you to do personally!"

Shen summoned his trusted followers and bowed his head, following that, he muttered to himself, as though he was plotting something shameful.

After Ban Xia had recuperated for a few days, there were no major problems. Right now, her steps were light and light, but luckily she was young, her body condition was good, and there weren't any side effects on her body after falling into the water.

She did not know that a conspiracy had been secretly set against her.

That day, she woke up rather late. The room was empty, her mother was not there, and she was a bit hungry.

After searching in every direction, she still couldn't find her mother, causing her to panic.

Normally, her mother wouldn't stay too far away from her. If anything happened, she would leave her home for a longer period of time and inform her beforehand.

"Did you see my mother?"

Helpless, she could only run to the servants and ask them one by one.

Unfortunately, these servants all shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen her mother today.

However, she was a female assassin in her previous life and her sense of vigilance hadn't dropped at all. She could already smell the undercurrents beneath the tranquil exterior of the mansion.

There was a danger slowly approaching her.

As for what the danger was, she had no idea.

After half a day, still nothing came of it, and his mother suddenly disappeared, causing Ban Xia to feel even more uneasy.

She was worried, wondering if she should run over to her father, the one she had never seen since her rebirth, the family head of the house.

She could only seek help from her own father before finding her mother.

Although this mother had a weak temper, she didn't have the slightest bit of selfishness towards her daughter.

"Miss Ban Xia, the lady invites you!"

Just then, the servant girl beside Shen suddenly came over to pass on a message.

"She's looking for me?" Ban Xia subconsciously frowned. They did not have any interaction at all, and after she had reincarnated, she had not seen this Owner Mother's style, but the woman's intuition told her that this kind of summoning was definitely not a good thing.

"Madam is still waiting for you. Move quickly, don't let Madam wait for you for too long!" The servant girl seemed to look down on her, and even her tone was somewhat impatient.

Ban Xia was too lazy to teach such a lowly little girl a lesson, so he just went along.

Seeing Ban Xia the little girl who was brought here, Shen was more satisfied than ever.

Although she was a country girl who had just come back from the countryside, she did not look too bad. As long as she was properly dressed up and made some good clothes, she would definitely look like a beauty.

Ban Xia kept having the feeling that the eyes of the Shen sizing him up was harbouring some evil intentions.

But since she was already here, she could only wait and see.

"Ban Xia, the reason I called you here today is to tell you something. I believe you have also heard about the marriage decree given by the emperor not long ago from a servant, right?"

About the marriage? Ban Xia's mind was racing.

, you are the Second Miss, to be able to marry the Prince Feather is your fortune! You should go down and prepare yourself. "

Shen did not even need to discuss, and directly announced.

She did not seek for Ban Xia's opinion, and from the start, she did not ask whether Ban Xia was willing to or not, and decided on Ban Xia on her own accord.

This was exactly what she planned to do.

"Wait, ma'am, did I hear wrong? How am I some Second Miss of the Shang Shu Fu? I am clearly just a little girl in the palace, even more lowly than the status of a servant.

Ban Xia feigned ignorance and tactfully refused.

She didn't want to say what Shen's intentions were. In an instant, Shen had already thought through all of her plans.

Shen's face darkened.

"Ban Xia!"

She gritted her teeth as she called out the little girl's name.

After realizing that she had lost control of herself and lost control of herself, she immediately returned to her previous grandeur and orderly manner.

Everything was still under her control.

This little girl couldn't escape from her Five Fingers Mountain, so what was she afraid of?

"Is your mother gone now?"

Boom! Boom!

No matter how stupid Ban Xia was, she should have realized that the Shen was hinting at something.

"Was my mother's disappearance caused by you secretly? Where did you get my mother? Quickly release my mother! "

With regards to the safety of her loved ones, Ban Xia could no longer remain as calm as he was before.

In her previous life, she was just a murderous woman. The only warm memory in her heart was that of her grandmother. She didn't have any memories or impressions of her parents.

Having been reborn, it wasn't easy for her to have a mother who doted on her. She definitely couldn't let anything happen to her own mother!

"Mother, what are you trying to do?"

For the first time, she called this woman her mother. For the first time, she submitted to this luxurious woman in order to love her own mother.

"Ban Xia, my intentions are very simple. As long as you agree to marry the Prince Feather, and complete the emperor's arranged marriage, then I will let your mother go. You are a filial daughter, you should think about it! "

Shen casually voiced out his threat.

Even though she was clearly such a luxurious woman, she had a vicious, selfish face.

Ban Xia's lips quirked in ridicule, "The Emperor bestowed the marriage, didn't he want the Senior Sister to marry out? Suddenly changing into a little country girl like me, isn't that a bit inappropriate? Prince Feather is probably not that easy to fool either. "

If even Mu Lian wasn't willing to accept this arranged marriage, then why did she have to bear it on behalf of this vicious Senior Sister?

If this was really a good thing, they would definitely fight for it themselves.

"Ban Xia, if you don't care about the life and death of your mother, then you can leave right now! But tomorrow, just you wait to collect your mother's corpse! " Shen had always been ruthless, otherwise, he would not have been able to manage this huge house in an orderly fashion.

Ban Xia could not even take a step forward. Her delicate and pretty face was flushed red from anger.

"Do you know what you are doing? If father knows that you are such a venomous woman, do you think father will still be able to tolerate you? "

Shen laughed out loud, as if he had heard a great joke.

"Your father? I'm in charge of everything in this mansion, big and small. How could your father have the time to care about such trivial matters? If you dare to cause trouble with your father, hmph, I'll make your mother die a graveless death! Don't even think about finding her corpse in your life. I will do as I say! "

Naturally, she could be so ruthless.

Ban Xia's figure shook. After being reborn, she seemed to have softened even more.

Just like this moment, she would never allow her own mother to encounter any misfortune or mishap.

"Your condition is simply for me to marry that Prince Feather?"

Under the pressure and threat of the Shen, in order to protect his own mother, Ban Xia had no choice but to give in temporarily.

"That's right. That's just one condition. If you agree to that, then after you get married, I can guarantee that your mother will live in this house without any worries!"

To Ban Xia, marrying that crippled Prince Feather was not as hard as she had imagined.

She needed a reasonable and sheltered identity in the future, so that she could investigate more openly what she wanted to investigate.
