Chapter 10 The Little Widow

Huan Beiming and his wife looked at each other, both of them were puzzled, it was rare to see their daughter so serious, not knowing what happened, Madam Huan nodded, and sent all the maids and servants out of the house.

"Xiaoyan, what's the matter with you?"

Only then did Huan Qingyan speak out, "Father, Aunt, my daughter heard that there has been a murderous maniac in Kyoto recently, is there such a thing?"

Mrs. Huan straightened her face, "Which gossip girl is scaring you? Don't be afraid, the murderer will not come to our house. With your father around, the murderer will not dare to come."

"Aniang, that's not what it means. My daughter is not afraid of a murderous maniac coming to our Illusory Mansion. My daughter is afraid that a murderous maniac will go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion. This manslaughter is said to be a big demon who specializes in killing spiritual masters and eating their hearts..."

Huan Beiming touched the short mustache on his chin, and said, "Don't worry, there are private guards in the Ninth Prince's residence, and the Ninth Prince will be fine."

Mrs. Huan had a look of understanding, and said with a smile, "It turns out that our Xiaoyan is worried about the safety of the Ninth Prince. A few days ago, during the food festival, you slapped the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince didn't take revenge. These days, you sent people to bring you gifts every day. You didn't say anything. A Niang thought you two were having a temper, so you were secretly caring about him..."

Huan Qingyan coughed, but if she didn't make it clear, Mrs. Huan must have gone astray.

I could only say, "Father, Auntie, I will stop playing around. Are you and the royal family discussing about your daughter's engagement with the Ninth Prince recently? My daughter thought about it and decided not to discuss it beforehand. Now that the big monster in the capital is so powerful, if the Ninth Prince is killed, wouldn't the daughter become an unknown widow as soon as she got engaged?"

"Xiaoyan is right..." Mrs. Huan was drawn in.

Huan Beiming lowered his voice, "Nonsense, even if the healers in the entire imperial capital may encounter accidents, the Ninth Prince cannot be harmed at all. Where did you come up with such a strange idea?"

Huan Qingyan tugged Huan Beiming's hand to act coquettishly. "Father, just follow Qingyan, Qingyan doesn't want to become a little widow, and Qingyan doesn't want to be engaged to the Ninth Prince for the time being..."

"Who told you about the engagement?" He came to Madam Huan today to discuss his daughter's marriage. Before he said anything, his daughter knew about it in advance!

"I guessed it myself..."

Huan Beiming's voice was harsh and interrupted her, "Marriage is a trifling matter. Father asked you which Highness you like, and you yourself said it was His Highness Ninth. How can you be so nonsense now?"

The Ninth Prince is also his favorite prince.

He is a talented person, but he is not a prince. In the future, he does not need to be a big man, nor does he need to have three thousand beauties in the harem. The harem is a place to eat people. He knows that his daughter's IQ can't be played, so he can only pick a less wealthy and promising person.

He has already reached an agreement with the royal family. Huan Beiming will serve the Chuiyun royal family for life. Even if he dies, he will pass on the Huan family's old soup to his daughter, not his son, to protect his daughter's future status.

The royal family also promised that no matter what happens, Huan Qingyan will not be treated badly...
