Shen Ningning opened her red lips several times, trying to deny something.

But when she looked at the concern in her elder brother's eyes, she couldn't say anything, but her beautiful, crystal eyes gradually became moist.

"How did brother know?"

Seeing the grievance in her heart finally surface, Xie Mingxu sighed heartbrokenly.

"It was my second brother who noticed something was wrong first. He discovered that you secretly sent Wan Chun away, so he entrusted me to send people to pursue it all the way. Finally, I learned something from Wan Chun."

"The day you went to Zhuyuan, the person you saw was not the prince."

Shen Ningning was stunned.

Wan Chun didn't know who she had met, but as soon as Wan Chun told Xie Mingxu, everyone would understand that it was not Mo Lingwei who came early that day.

Using Xie Mingxu's methods, he investigated who appeared in the Zhuyuan that day and found out the truth.

If Mo Lingwei wanted to find out, he would know.

However, he did not doubt that Shen Ningning suddenly fell out with him after meeting the emperor.

He really thought he had done something wrong to make her unhappy.

Shen Ningning kept this secret from herself, which turned into full of pain in her heart.

Now that it was revealed, she no longer concealed it, looking at the sparkling water under the night with red eyes.

"I don't want to agree, but the emperor's uncle knelt down to beg me. Besides, I completely understand that he has worked so hard for my brother's good..."

Xie Mingxu frowned in displeasure: "What about you? If you and the prince come to the point of discussing marriage, would you be willing to marry him regardless of these external reasons?"

Shen Ningning hesitated and thought about it carefully.

"I am willing...but," she quickly added: "If I want to share my husband with another woman, I am not willing. I would rather stay unmarried for the rest of my life under the protection of my brother and father."

Xie Mingxu stood beside Shen Ningning with his hands behind his back, like a divine Buddha protecting her well-being, with a doting and calm look in his incomparable majesty.

"Then you don't need to consider the emperor's request. Brother only hopes that you can live according to your heart. Ningning, my father, me, and your second brother have worked so hard to make our Xie family's power unshakable. But It’s not just for fun, but because we want you to grow up carefree under our wings.”

This serious confession made Shen Ningning's nose sore, and her tears immediately fell.

"Brother..." Her family dotes on her in every possible way and always gives her the utmost understanding.

Xie Mingxu's voice was deep: "Although I can understand the emperor's actions, in my heart, I hate him deeply at this moment. When I need the Xie family, I praise my loyal ministers. When I am afraid of the Xie family, I am afraid that my achievements will shock the master. I embarrass you, a little girl, and waste our Xie family's money." My son, you have contributed a lot to the court!"

Listening to his tone, Shen Ningning was obviously angry with the emperor.

Her eldest brother Xie Mingxu has always been the most loyal and courageous, but to say something like this now is already a treason for him in the past.

It seemed like he was really angry this time.

Shen Ningning pulled his sleeve: "Actually, the emperor's uncle also regretted it. He apologized to me and hoped that I could reconsider my brother."

"What do you think?" Xie Mingxu's eyes darkened.

According to his temperament, the emperor wavered back and forth. He must have been reluctant to let his sister marry into a place like the royal family. It seemed to be rich and noble, but in fact there were many rules and no freedom at all.

Shen Ningning lowered her head: "I... to be honest, brother, I don't know. My heart is very confused and I don't know what I want anymore."

She liked Mo Lingwei, but after so many things happened, there seemed to be a barrier in her heart, and she was not able to accept him so easily.

She didn't want to hurt Lu Shaoyuan, but now that something like this happened to him, if she mentioned that she didn't want to get engaged at this time, would it make Lu Shaoyuan feel that she disliked him?

When Xie Mingxu saw Shen Ningning's white and tangled face, he knew that at this moment, she must be thinking about other people's feelings and not thinking about herself at all.

He sighed helplessly.

How I wish this sister could be more selfish and just choose for herself once.

At this moment, he looked up and saw several meteors streaking across the sky, and immediately patted the back of Shen Ningning's hand.

"Look, sister, my mother once told me when she was here that falling meteors have special energy. If you can make a wish to it, it will use the remaining energy to fulfill your wish. You don't need anything. Think, at this moment, shout out the thing you desire most in your heart.”

Shen Ningning quickly clasped her hands together, looking very pious in her delicate and beautiful appearance.

"Meteor, meteor, I hope..." She closed her eyes: "I hope mother can reunite with us as soon as possible!"

Xie Mingxu was startled, and a beautiful laughter immediately escaped from his thin lips.

He thought that what was troubling his sister's heart was love affairs.

Unexpectedly, what Shen Ningning was most concerned about was when her mother would come back.

"That's fine," Xie Mingxu felt relieved and touched his sister's head: "Let's pray together that mother can come back soon. At this time, someone will be able to give you emotional advice."

After saying that, the brother and sister raised their heads together and looked at more and more meteors, like rain, dragging their long shiny tails across the sky.

At the same time, Master Gu, who was staying at the princess's residence, was playing chess with Mr. Zhang Liu for fun.

The boy next to him suddenly pointed to the sky and exclaimed: "Star rain!"

Master Gu and Zhang Liuye looked up and were shocked.

Mr. Zhang Liu was amazed, stroking his beard and sighing: "There are so many shooting stars like arrows. It's a pity that I don't understand astrology, and I don't know whether it is good or bad?"

But Master Gu opened his eyes wide, sat there, raised his head, and didn't speak for a long time.

When a group of them landed on the moon, they encountered a strong space-time magnetic storm. For this reason, they came to this time and space.

Master Gu still remembers that before he fell into coma in the spaceship, he saw the sky full of stars like rain through the broken window, just like tonight.

He suspected that magnetic storms in space and time caused a large number of meteor showers, which meant that a similar situation was happening again.

Does that mean that Captain Shen has the opportunity to come here, and he also has the opportunity to go home?

Master Gu's hands shook with excitement, and the chess pieces scattered on the floor.

Master Zhang Liu didn't know what was wrong with him. He bent down to pick up the chess pieces and shouted with a smile: "You can't pretend to be excited when you see Xing Yu just because you are about to lose. In fact, you regret the move secretly. I remember how you played just now." !”

Master Gu stood up happily and held Master Zhang Liu around in circles.

"If the captain has a chance to come back, it will prove that I can go home. That would be great. It has been forty years. It has been forty years! I finally have hope! Sixth, I am so happy!"

"Hey, hey, hey! Put me down quickly! You lost in the chess game just now, but you can't default on it. There's no point in hugging me!"

On the other side, two groups of forbidden troops walked out from the palace gate at night, like two fierce dark dragons.

On the order of the prince, they went to capture Meng Wan Ning and brought him to the palace to see him.
