C140 Ninth Imperial Sister-in-Law

"It's not your fault." Shangguan Min continued walking forward. "Give up, I won't like you."

She slowly disappeared from his sight, but he could only lower his head, take out a hairpin from the box, and quietly examine it.

Shangguan Min went to see the Second Madam, and the expression on her face clearly indicated that she had something to say.

"What's wrong, Min?" Second Madam and Second Miss's relationship was much better than his son's.

Perhaps it was a confirmation of a saying from Shangguan Shu: 'The different paths are not the same'.

"It's wishful thinking to have a fool try to please me with a small gift." Shangguan Min told her mother what had just happened as a joke.

Second Madam was puzzled. "Who are you talking about?"

"Who else could it be? Luo Leyan, her family background is ordinary. In any case, I don't think much of her."

Second Madam was very pleased. "Indeed, who does he think he is? She also wants my daughter. Min'er, you have to listen to your mother. In the future, you must marry someone who is either rich or noble. You can't imitate your brother."

"I know my mother. Young master Wang Sun, with such good conditions like mine, why do I have to worry about not being able to get married?"

Second Madam Gu nodded in reassurance. Her daughter was still filial and filial. Her son could not be trusted at all.

"That stinking brat Shangguan Li has been pretty close to the Nangong couple lately. I wonder what kind of background those two have." Second Madam had lived for most of her life and had seen a lot of people. However, people like Nangong Yu were rarely seen. Her innate intuition told her that this man was not simple at all.

It was just like how she had taken a fancy to the still princess Shangguan Hong all those years ago, and after targeting him, she went to the top of the spirit mountain and became the second wife no matter what means were used.

Shangguan Min took a sip of tea. "No matter what their background is, they came to our Spirit Mountain just to get the holy water. Since they can't get it in the open, they have to work hard on that silly kid Shangguan Li."

His mother understood people, and his daughter understood people. It was a perfect match.

"True." Second Madam's mood plummeted all of a sudden. She lowered her eyes and sighed. "Ai …"

"Is the mother sighing because of his father?" She had seen how unfair his father had been to the three of them.

No matter what good stuff it was, they would first rely on Ol 'Three. It was as if in his heart, he and his elder brother were just foils to Ol' Three.

But why should she be treated so unfairly? She was also Shangguan Hong's blood, the second young miss of the Spirit Mountain. How could she only enjoy the reputation that the Spirit Mountain had bestowed to her, but not receive his favor?

Later on, as she grew older, she gradually understood that if his father looked down on her, then she would work even harder. As a noble person, she would let his father know that not only could Old Third support the spirit mountain, she could also do much better.

"Your father only misses that woman Zhilan. He doesn't care about your mother and me at all. It's been ten years, and your father hasn't been in this room for ten years. Maybe he has already forgotten what this room looks like. " Second Madam Gu sized up the furnishings in the room with a gaze filled with hidden bitterness.

At first she did love only his money, only his power, but then she was slowly drawn to him, until finally she really fell in love with him.

She had been jealous of him, had given birth to a daughter for him, had dedicated her youth for him.

In front of outsiders, she had played the role of the owner of Spirit Mountain. She didn't want to embarrass him, but how was she? She's not even a stepson.

No, she could not compare to a dead person. That woman seemed to have cast a spell in his heart, a spell that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

The most venomous woman's heart was that she would never be able to receive the slightest bit of love from him in her entire life.

Shangguan Min was a little angry, "Mother! Are you still daydreaming about your father? Wake up, he doesn't love you at all! He only treats you as a burden, the three of us are nothing to him! "He only likes his Zhilan and that bastard."

"Min'er, no … "Don't say anymore …" Second Madam's tears fell. She knew that her daughter was speaking the truth, but it was often the truth, and that was why it hurt even more.

"I have to say it!" Shangguan Min was very stubborn. "You've always been tormenting yourself. You shouldn't have been in love with him from the beginning. So what if he has already entered this room?" In his heart, he was still thinking about others, wasn't she? "

Second Madam fell to the ground, crying her heart out.

She knew she had been wrong, completely wrong. Who was Shangguan Hong, the lord of Spirit Mountain, would he give her his heart? His official wife had a noble background. She was the princess of Luo Fan, and also the blood sister of the Lord of Luo Fan.

If it wasn't for him wandering around in front of him every day, he might have forgotten what he looked like.

What a pity, what a pity. In matters of emotions, whoever was serious would lose.

He, Shangguan Hong, had fallen deeply in love with Zhilan, so Zhilan had died. He could not forget Zhilan, and he spent the entire day and night reminiscing about her.

As for himself? He had fallen in love with her, but she had always been indifferent and ungrateful to him.

If he could live as well as his daughter, he would rather betray others than allow others to betray him.

As for Shangguan Li and the rest, they had already arrived at the street market at the foot of the mountain.

"Miss Yun Luo, can you guess where I will take you?" At this moment, the princess began to put on airs.

Yun Luo thought about it, "I don't know where to go, but I can guess who I will meet."

"Oh?" Shangguan Li was pleasantly surprised, it was rare for him to meet such an intelligent girl.

Not only did she give herself the feeling of a mother, but her intelligence, her everything, affected his heart.

However, he clearly understood that this woman in front of him was only a reverence, a worship, and had nothing to do with love.

"The person who received Holy Water this month." Yun Luo raised her eyebrows, "Am I right?"

"Pah!" Pow! "Pah!" Shangguan Li clapped his hands together. "Lady Ji is intelligent and unparalleled."

For Brother Nan Gong to be so fortunate, others would not be able to come over to envy him.

"Princess, you flatter me." This fox spirit, when she should be humble, she should still be modest.

"Oh right, what kind of book has Lady Yun Luo been reading recently?" Shangguan Li chatted casually as he walked.

Yun Luo scratched her head. "It's not some profound work. It's just a love story book that girls like …"

"So that's how it is." Shangguan Li nodded. "Actually, there's no need for a lady to feel embarrassed. Any work of art has its merits."

"Princess has extraordinary experience, Yun Luo admires her." She was modest when she said she should be modest, but she had to be polite when she said she should be polite.

"I wonder who is the author of this book?" Shangguan Li asked again.

Nangong Yu looked at them as he asked questions and answers, so he wouldn't be jealous.

Moreover, he wasn't really interested in romance. As the emperor, he read military strategies the most.

"I don't know the author's real name, but I do know his pen name."

"Oh?" The princess was suddenly interested.

"Ninth royal concubine." Cloudfall answered.
