All her actions proved this point.
âBrother, I always felt that our mother came from another world and was very different from us,â Su Yingxue said, gazing at the moonlight in the sky.
âAnother world? Although I donât dare to agree, a woman like our mother is rare in this world. In all my years of experience, she was one of a kind,â Su Hao said with a smile.
Three days later, Old General Suâs reply arrived at the Marquisâs Manor. He agreed to Su Haoâs proposal to Wu Jinyan and even gave a golden saber that had been passed down in the Su family as a betrothal gift, asking Su Hao to present it to Wu Jinyan.
Su Hao took the golden saber and the letter to inform Su Dingheng, then asked Su Yingxue to prepare the betrothal gifts for him. They had decided to go to the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion the next day to propose marriage.
Su Dingheng saw that Su Hao had only come to inform him and hadnât even asked if he agreed or not. He even used the old masterâs golden saber to stop him. He snorted and left with a flick of his sleeves.
Su Hao didnât have any feelings for him, but he looked worriedly at Su Yingxue beside him. âAfter I go to Bamboo Leaf Pass, youâll still be in charge of the family affairs. Liu Shuian and her child, Iâm worriedâ¦â
âLiu Shuian and her daughter canât harm me. Brother, are you worried that Su Jinxuan can do anything to me?â Su Yingxue smiled in a relaxed manner.
Su Hao smiled, realizing that he was worrying too much.
The next morning, Su Yingxue and Su Hao led a formidable procession to the Thousand-Jiao Pavilion.
Su Hao changed into a bright red wedding outfit, and his handsome face looked even more striking. When he smiled, it made many girls on the street blush!
âLook! Thatâs Young General Su. He became famous at a young age and is now going to propose marriage!â
âYoung general is so handsome! 1 wonder which lucky girl will be able to marry him! If 1 could marry Young General, Iâd be willing to live ten years less!â
âIf I could marry Young General, Iâd be willing to live twenty years less!â
âHa!â
When Su Yingxue heard the comments from the women on the street, she turned around and playfully teased Su Hao. âBrother, did you hear that? To marry you, they are willing to live twenty years less!â
âDonât joke around!â Su Hao was nervous. His hand holding the reins even trembled.
Today, he had come to propose marriage, and he didnât know how Yanâer would react.
As the procession moved slowly, a figure dashed out from the crowd and aimed a sharp dagger at Su Yingxue!
âSister, be careful!â
Su Haoâs quick reflexes allowed him to leap off his horse, swiftly twist Lianâerâs wrist, knock the dagger from her hand, and kick it aside.
The Marquisâs Manor guards immediately closed in around Lianâer.
Su Hao helped Su Yingxue dismount and asked her carefully, âSister, are you okay?â
Su Yingxue shook her head. âBrother didnât even let her touch me. What could happen to me?â
âSu Yingxue, youâre responsible for the princessâs death. Why are you so lucky? You should apologize to the princess! Go to hell!â Lianâerâs eyes were bloodshot, and she was determined to die along with Su Yingxue.
However, Su Yingxue looked at her coldly. âIf your princess knew that you were courting death like this, Iâm afraid she wouldnât be able to rest in peace.â
âThe one who tormented the princess is you! She begged so humbly, and you didnât even help her fulfill a small wish! Why do you people from the Great Cheng Dynasty have to humiliate the princess like this? She was such a kind personâ¦â
Lianâer broke down in tears.. She had lived this long only to avenge the princess!
