Chapter 548: Mother agreed to let me marry Nan Shi?
As the night deepened, raindrops as big as beans fell.
Xiao Qingyuan knelt in the courtyard of Princess Ning, letting the rain soak his whole body, and refused to get up no matter what: "If mother doesn't agree with me marrying Nan Shi, I will kneel and die here! In my previous life, I married Shen Wantang according to mother's wishes, which was filial enough! In this life, I want to live for myself. I don't want anyone else except Nan Shi!"
Through a beaded curtain, Princess Ning looked at Xiao Qingyuan kneeling in the yard, her severe headache getting worse and worse.
The scene before me looks extremely familiar.
Once upon a time, when he insisted on marrying Chu Yanluo as the Crown Prince's Consort, he was just as stubborn and unreasonable.
I went to Fazhen Temple and after I came back I started saying things that I couldn't understand. I kept talking about my previous life, which was creepy to hear.
The rain was getting heavier, and then a flash of lightning flashed across the room, illuminating the entire yard.
Princess Ning looked at her son kneeling in the rain, her face turned pale and her heart ached.
Finally, she raised her chin towards Nanny Quan.
Nanny Quan immediately opened the curtain, and Princess Ning stepped over the threshold and walked under the eaves.
"Yuan'er, what's wrong with you? A few days ago, you were insisting on marrying Chu Yanluo, but now you've changed to Liu Nanshi? Which one do you like?"
"Mother, I like Nan Shi! I don't like Chu Yanluo anymore. Mother, please don't mention her anymore!"
"You don't like her anymore? Didn't you become a monk for her? Are you kidding me? You're in love with Liu Nanshi again so soon? How can I trust you? What if you don't like Liu Nanshi anymore in a few days? What if you like someone else?"
Princess Ning's series of questions left Xiao Qingyuan speechless for a moment.
After a long while, he said, "Whether mother believes it or not, anyway, my son has died once, and this time I am reborn. In my previous life, I have seen Chu Yanluo's true face. She is not a good person, so I don't like her anymore."
"In my previous life, Nan Shi and I were soulmates, but unfortunately I had already married Shen Wantang according to my mother's wishes, so I couldn't marry Nan Shi."
"I don't want to miss her again in this life. I like her, only her. I can't like anyone else. Besides, Nanshi likes me too. Please grant my wish, mother!"
Princess Ning stared at him in a daze for a long time. She knew her own son's temper. Even if he wanted to force her to agree to marry Liu Nanshi, he would not make up such an outrageous lie to deceive her.
Could it be that my son really had a previous life?
Did he really die once?
Princess Ning felt a dull pain in her heart. She couldn't help but ask him, "Yuan'er, you said you died once. How did you die? Who killed you?"
"Mother, no one hurt me. I just... I just watched Nan Shi die with my own eyes, and I felt that there was no point in me living anymore. She drowned in the river, and I jumped into the river with her and committed suicide."
"what?!"
Princess Ning's eyes went dark and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Nanny Quan was quick to support her and she was able to stand again.
Just now he said that he was filial enough in his previous life. So he was so filial to her? He committed suicide for a woman?!
Princess Ning couldn't even imagine how she would live if her son died!
She probably wouldn't survive.
The pain in his heart became more and more severe, but it was not because of his son's unfilial behavior, but because his son committed suicide.
She knew that her son was really capable of doing such a stupid thing, which was why she had not sent anyone to kill Chu Yanluo until now. If Chu Yanluo was killed, her son would most likely not survive.
Now, my son no longer likes Chu Yanluo and likes Liu Nanshi again.
The person I like has changed, but the way I like him has not changed.
Fortunately, this time, the girl my son liked was not a shameless woman from a humble family, but a lady from a prominent family in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
She asked for nothing else but that her son could live well.
Princess Ning closed her eyes and said, "Since you like Liu Nanshi, I will sacrifice my reputation and ask for marriage for you."
Xiao Qingyuan was overjoyed: "Really? Mother agreed to let me marry Nan Shi?"
Princess Ning said coldly, "Don't be too happy too soon. I'll tell you the truth. I tried to test Madam Liu before, but she refused. You made a big fuss about Chu Yanluo becoming a nun. The Liu family thinks you are too ridiculous and has no intention of marrying us. The Liu family is interested in the boy from the Duke's Mansion!"
Xiao Qingyuan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, mother, don't worry, Nan Shi doesn't like Gu Qianhan at all. The person Nan Shi likes is me, and I am the only one who can relate to her!"
Princess Ning nodded and said, "Madame Quan, go get my visiting card and send it to the Liu family. Tomorrow, I will go to the Mansion of the Grand Lord in person."
"Yes."
Nanny Quan responded, went into the house to get the visiting card, and sent someone to deliver it to the Liu family.
However, not long after, the Liu family sent the housekeeper to reply, saying that Madam Liu had been ill recently and was recuperating at home and was unable to see guests.
Princess Ning had a very unhappy expression on her face. This was the second time that Madam Liu refused to meet her for the same reason.
After sending away the maid of the Liu family, Princess Ning looked at Xiao Qingyuan: "Yuan'er, did you hear that? Madam Liu would rather pretend to be sick than see me, so how could she agree to you marrying Liu Nanshi? Their attitude is very clear, so you should stop thinking about Liu Nanshi."
Xiao Qingyuan had already changed into dry clothes. After hearing what Princess Ning said, he immediately shook his head: "Mother, why are you speculating about others so maliciously?"
Princess Ning was stunned: "What did you say? I made malicious assumptions?!"
"Yes! Madam Liu must be really ill, otherwise why would she not see you? Mother, you need to be more sunny in your heart. If you are always so dark and always think the worst of others, who would be willing to be your in-law?"
Princess Ning was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She looked at her son in shock and anger, pointed at him and called him "you" for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.
She shouldn't have felt sorry for the bastard getting wet in the rain, and shouldn't have asked him to come in! She should have asked him to kneel and die outside!
Xiao Qingyuan didn't care how angry Princess Ning was. He just said to himself, "It seems that I have to go find Nan Shi myself. I just don't know if she has been reborn like me."
"She's so smart, and she's so connected to me, so she must have been reborn, right?"
"She will definitely be happy to see me. If she knew that I was going to fulfill the promise I made in my last life, she would definitely be happier, right?"
Xiao Qingyuan said this and walked out.
Princess Ning was horrified: "Asshole, come back here! It's so late, if you rashly go to Liu Nanshi and say something crazy, wouldn't it damage her reputation? Then you will be beaten out by the Liu family!"
However, Xiao Qingyuan seemed to be deaf. He walked out without stopping and disappeared in the rain.
