Shen Xinglin has been extremely dependent on Shen Jingxuan since she was a child. She didn't need to ask in detail, just looking into his eyes she knew that he was hiding something from her.

"Tell me, what are you hiding from your sister?"

Shen Xinglin suddenly raised his head, only to see Shen Jingxuan pursing her lips and looking out the window, as if she was just asking casually.

"Sister, I didn't..."

"Lin'er, you have to think it through."

Shen Jingxuan turned around and looked at him steadily. "Since you were little, I have taught you many things personally. I know what you are thinking with every look and every word you say."

Shen Xinglin looked at Shen Jingxuan quietly for a moment, then side-glanced at Xie Lingxiao, as if he couldn't speak with him around.

Shen Jingxuan said: "Go ahead, A Xiao won't interrupt you."

Shen Xinglin finally couldn't bear Shen Jingxuan's gaze anymore and told her what was in his heart.

After so many years, it's not that he didn't have a woman he liked, it's just that the woman was of low status.

Shen Xinglin and the woman were in love with each other, and they got along very well.

It was not until the woman knew Shen Xinglin's identity that she began to distance herself from him.

Shen Xinglin didn't notice it at first, but when he noticed it, the woman hid and refused to see him.

Later, they finally met in person. When Shen Xinglin asked her, he learned that she knew she was of humble status and not worthy of Shen Xinglin, so she pushed him away and ran away.

She was a commoner, he was a young general.

She has no maternal family behind her, no father or mother loves her, and she has no one close to her.

He has the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion behind him, is loved by everyone in the mansion, and has a sister who is the queen.

The two people are not a good match.

Shen Xinglin once said that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion does not care about family background, but he was still rejected by the woman.

He was a young general, and many noble ladies in the capital were vying to marry him, but he was repeatedly rejected by a woman who had nothing.

Shen Jingxuan frowned and looked at Shen Xinglin, not knowing how to start the conversation for a moment.

After a while, she pursed her lips and said, "So? You will never marry for her? She will never marry for you?"

"Puff..." The tea that Xie Lingxiao had just drunk suddenly sprayed out.

Shen Jingxuan glared at him, and seeing him sitting there coughing, she had no choice but to walk up to him and pat him on the back gently.

Shen Xinglin blushed slightly, "Sister, it's not what you said. I just want to see her again. If the final result is still like this, I will let it go."

Having said that, if people could really let go so easily, there wouldn't be people like Yun Qingmo and Jiang Shaoying.

After Xie Lingxiao coughed, he finally recovered and said, "Do you have a pig brain?"

"Such a simple matter would delay you for several years?"

In the end, Shen Jingxuan was troubled by her grandmother and mother.

Shen Xinglin was puzzled: "Brother-in-law, marriage is a big deal. Although it is important to have the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, that's not what I want."

"What do you want? You want to be able to see but not have?"

Shen Xinglin choked and lowered his head silently.

He also wanted to marry the woman he loved, but she didn't agree.

The disparity in their status seemed like an insurmountable chasm, blocking the two of them and making it difficult for them to move forward.

Shen Jingxuan's pink fist landed on Xie Lingxiao's shoulder, "Speak properly."

Xie Lingxiao raised his head and a smile instantly appeared on his face, "Okay."

Seeing him looking at her with a smile, Shen Jingxuan asked: "Ah Xiao, do you have any good ideas?"

"I don't have a good solution, only a solution that is neither good nor bad."

"What's the solution?"

Nowadays, having a solution is always better than having no solution.

At Shen Xinglin's age, other families would have many children already, so it is normal for her grandmother and mother to be anxious.

Shen Xinglin showed a trace of joy on his face, "Brother-in-law, please tell me what the solution is."

Seeing the two of them staring at him intently, Xie Lingxiao covered his lips and coughed softly, "I will issue an edict to grant the marriage."

The joy on Shen Xinglin's face was instantly replaced by disappointment.

Issuing an imperial decree to grant a marriage is tantamount to robbery, and she will not be happy about it.

When Shen Jingxuan heard Xie Lingxiao's words, her eyebrows curved, "Ah Xiao, just issue an imperial decree to grant the marriage."

"How about I issue an imperial decree?"

She is Shen Xinglin's sister. If she issues an imperial decree, it will tell the woman that she agrees.

The Queen Mother did not look down on her status, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion would not do so either.

Shen Xinglin frowned and looked at Shen Jingxuan, but seeing that she was still smiling, he did not refuse.

Xie Lingxiao said: "The Queen is very thoughtful. If Xuan'er issues an imperial decree, that woman will definitely not reject Lin'er because of her status."

"Brother-in-law, why are you so sure?"

"Xuan'er is the queen, she is your sister, and she is the one who issued the decree to accept that woman."

After Xie Lingxiao finished speaking, he glared at Shen Xinglin and continued, "Can't you use your brain?"

"As a general, your grandmother and mother had to come to your sister for such a small matter. How did you become a general?"

Shen Xinglin: “…”

How did he become a general? Why ask him?

Shouldn't he, the emperor, be the one who knows the most about this matter?

Seeing that Shen Xinglin did not refuse, Shen Jingxuan stood up suddenly and said, "It's settled. I will go back to the palace and issue an imperial decree."

She did what she said. She hurriedly called Ling Qiong and Ling Huan, packed up the two children's things, and returned to the palace with Xie Lingxiao.

Shen Xinglin was still a little dazed when he stood in Shen Jingxuan's bedroom.

He didn't understand why his sister issued an imperial decree asking him to go into the palace with her.

Shen Jingxuan was very fast. In just a moment, she came out with the imperial edict.

"Ling Huan, let Lin'er lead the way for you and deliver the imperial edict to that woman as soon as possible."

She glanced at Shen Xinglin and said, "After delivering the imperial decree, Lin'er will return home immediately to prepare for the wedding in three days."

"Three days?" Shen Xinglin looked at Shen Jingxuan in shock, not understanding why she was so anxious.

Shen Jingxuan did not explain and called Ling Qiong, "Go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and tell grandma and mother to prepare for Lin'er's wedding. The wedding will be held in three days."

Ling Qiong heard Shen Jingxuan's instructions and quickly left the bedroom.

Shen Xinglin followed Ling Huan in a daze, immersed in disbelief for a moment.

He had been troubled for several years because of his beloved woman, but his problem was solved so easily by Shen Jingxuan and Xie Lingxiao.

Shen Jingxuan looked at Shen Xinglin who was walking away and said with a smile: "I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for Lin'er and that woman."

"Don't worry, I've asked Ling Feng to check the woman's character, and there's nothing wrong with her."

"When did you send Ling Feng?"

She had been with Xie Lingxiao the whole time and had never seen him call Lingfeng.

Xie Lingxiao raised his eyebrows and said, “No need to tell him, since Lin Er mentioned that woman, he will take the initiative to find out.”

Shen Jingxuan said: "Then I feel relieved."

Finally, Madam Shen and Mrs. Hao's concerns were resolved, and Shen Jingxuan felt relieved.

Xie Lingxiao looked at her and pinched her pretty face with a smile.

Before he could say anything, Ling Chen walked in anxiously from outside.

Xie Lingxiao's smiling face suddenly darkened.
