The Empress suddenly revealed this information and left the Shen family caught in an anxious situation. There was no doubt that Shen Xin and wife were not willing to let Shen Miao marry into the Imperial family. The most ruthless was the Imperial family. In addition to the many political considerations, it was because of the complicated Inner Courtyard of the Imperial family. If Shen Miao were to marry in, with the many conspiracies, life would not go on easily. Wealth and honour were not worth the loss.
Shen Xin had the heart to marry Shen Miao off before the Imperial edict arrives. Before entering the Palace, because of Su Fūrén's matter, Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan had already discussed the need of starting to prioritise Shen Miao's lifelong matter. Luo Xue Yan had already instructed the subordinates to specially prepare a list and in it, there were all the talented youths in Ding Capital City. The booklet also indicated these people's character, where they stay, how many people were there in the household and where their ancestral homes were. Everything was inquired carefully and in detailed. Luo Xue Yan attack on the side by inquiring on Shen Miao's thoughts and once she heard that Shen Miao did not mind this method of looking for a husband, her heart settled and she seriously went all out to look for Shen Miao's husband.
The Shen family had military power in their grasp and had a very special place in Emperor Wen Hui's eyes thus it was not easy to casually choose one. Shen Xin did not take into consideration those officials that were powerful so as to prevent Emperor Wen Hui from feeling that they were creating an alliance. Thus the families that Luo Xue Yan and Shen Xin picked were those that had no ambitions with integrity and clean aristocratic families. As Shen Qiu was one who was forthright, he had a group of good brothers in the military and could help him to inquire about those people's character privately.
Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan had planned this for Shen Miao but out of their expectation was that when Shen Xin slightly revealed the intention of marriage, the other party would smile and avoid it, either saying that their sons were engaged or they were not in a rush to bring in a daughter-in-law. Shen Xin was one with a violent temper and also placed Shen Miao on his palm to dote. Others did not fancy Shen Miao, Shen Xin would not even look at them and left angrily with a brush of his sleeves.
However, in the course of time, what he encountered was always this situation. Those young talents that they had picked with great difficulty would find an excuse to avoid it. One or two times would be coincidences but too many times would make one feel strange. Shen Xin also felt that there was something wrong and it was a General who was close to Shen Xin that told him that currently, the officials all knew that the Imperial family had the intention to bestow Shen Miao to the Crown Prince. Shen Xin was finding in-laws at this end but who would dare to fight with the Imperial family for a female? Shen Miao would have avoided the fate of marrying into the Eastern Palace if she marries but it would definitely make the Imperial family displease with Shen Miao's in-laws family.
It was all for self-protection. Even if the Shen family was successful and Shen Miao was smart and unflustered, no one dared to marry her.
When Shen Xin knew of the matter, he became pious at home. He only said that first, he saw that those aristocratic families did not collude with worldly events but did not think that they were all as cowardly as tortoises. It was fortunate that Shen Miao did not marry over. How would these kinds of irresponsible people hold the skies for Shen Miao in the future?
When Shen Miao heard the words that Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang inquired, she only smiled faintly.
Jing Zhe got worried, "Why is Xiǎojiě not anxious? Now Fūrén and Lǎoyé are very anxious. If this goes on, one would not be able to find a suitable person before the Imperial edict comes."
"The Fu family are not fools." Shen Miao picked the cup of hot tea and took a sip, "How would they not know what kind of intention Fùqīn and Mǔqīn is thinking of?"
Shen Miao knew from the beginning that Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan's method would not succeed. As to how the information that she was going to marry the Crown Prince flowed out, needless to say, it was the Imperial family's methods. The Imperial family almost told the world undisguised that Shen Miao was the person they were looking at. How would the subjects of Ming Qi dare to fight with the Imperial family? As for the plan that Shen Xin and wife had thought to marry Shen Miao as quickly as possible, it was destined to be fruitless.
Gu Yu's throat was somewhat sour as she said, "Could it be that Xiǎojiě has to marry Tàizǐ Diànxià?"
As personal maids, even though Jing Zhe and Gu Yu did not understand what Shen Miao was thinking, they more or less could feel Shen Miao's emotions. Just like Shen Miao did not like the Palace at all nor the people in the Imperial Palace. Now if Shen Miao were to marry into the Eastern Palace, she would certainly not be comfortable with it.
Shen Miao said, "Watch as one walk." Her heart was however thinking, she had decided not to marry again into the Imperial family of Ming Qi. It was only an Imperial edict, it might be able to control the people and land and if it comes to it, she can ruin her reputation. The Fu family only wanted the Shen family's military power but dared not show their true selves to the outside world. After Shen Miao's reputation was ruined, if the Crown Prince was still insistent in marrying her, then this appearance would be too ugly. Wearing a green hat (being cuckold) or the military power was more important? With Shen Miao understanding of the Fu family, it would definitely be the military power. But if one really married her despite the green hat, then the commoners would not feel that the Fu family valued feelings deeply but that the Inner Palace of the Imperial family was in a mess.
Even if the Fu family was not able to gain the people's heart, they dared not let the rumours go on.
It was just that… Shen Miao stared at the floating tea leaves in the cup. Her reputation would be destroyed at the same time.
Fortunately, she did not have any sisters else it would implicate them to be scorned like her. The unfortunate thing was that Shen Xin and the rest would suffer from others' pointing and scrutinising.
However, this was the most inferior plan and was the only plan left.
Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan did not know that Shen Miao already had her own plans and still looked for a good husband for Shen Miao with their heart. But the Imperial family's message was sent out, thus, no one dared to even do the Shen family business. The doors of the Shen family were so quiet that one could net birds.
Shen Qiu almost grabbed a good friend over to marry Shen Miao. After being stopped by Luo Xue Yan, Shen Qiu, Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan sat in the room and their faces were filled with concern when talking about Shen Miao's marriage.
Luo Xue Yan said, "This tactic of the Imperial family is just too despicable. Previously, there were so many people who wanted to be our in-laws and now everyone all detoured. What is this?"
"It's all my fault." Shen Xin said, "In the beginning, one should settle a marriage for Jiao Jiao. One had thought that she was still young of age and it would not matter if one were to wait for a few more years. One did not expect this would happen."
Shen Qiu scratched his head, "In any case, Mèimèi cannot marry into Tàizǐ's residence. How can the gūniáng that our General Residence raised be another's Cèfēi? One would even pick and choose to be the official zhèngqī so how would there be any reason to be a Cèfēi?"
"Now, no one dared to have marriage relations with our family. So what can be done?" Luo Xue Yan's expression was somewhat anxious as she tried to probe, "How about looking outside the Ding Capital City to see if there are any suitable families?"
Shen Qiu was astonished, "Mǔqīn, you want to marry Mèimèi far away?"
Luo Xue Yan said in a bad mood, "I don't have any other options left. One feared that all the officials in Ding Capital City had known of this news and perhaps it had flowed outside the Ding Capital City. It is better to search in remote areas that do not know of this matter."
"Cannot." Shen Xin rejected resolutely, "Marrying far away would only cause Jiao Jiao to feel grievances. Moreover, with the far distance and tall mountains, when the in-law family bullies her, what if we, in the far away Ding Capital City, are unable to help?"
Luo Xue Yan got annoyed, "This cannot do, that also cannot do. Then what can be done?"
Shen Qiu sighed, "When all is said and done, it is these people in Ding Capital City that are afraid of implicating themselves. Is there not one man who favours Mèimèi over his own life?" Seeing Luo Xue Yan staring at him, Shen Qiu quickly added, "Other than me and Fùqīn."
Just as they were speaking, they saw Luo Ling coming in from outside. Luo Xue Yan told him to sit down and asked him eagerly, "Ling-er, did you manage to find a suitable family today?"
Luo Ling shook his head.
Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were somewhat disappointed.
Luo Xue Yan also lowered her head and looked worriedly at the teacup in front of her. But in the silence, one heard Luo Ling softly speaking, "Gūgū, Gūfū... biǎogē..."
Three of them looked up but saw that Luo Ling's expression was somewhat strange like he wanted to say something but stopped.
Shen Qiu asked, "Biǎodì, what is the matter with you? Just directly say what you want to say. There are only family members here."
Luo Ling took a deep breath and said, "There is still no suitable person for Xiǎo biǎom��i yet?"
Luo Xue Yan shook her head and said, "These people in Ding Capital City are all afraid of the Imperial family looking for their trouble and could not wait to get far from the Shen family. It is simply too difficult to find someone suitable at this juncture."
"Then," Luo Ling paused for a moment and gathered his courage before saying, "I am willing to marry Xiǎo biǎomèi."
When those words were said, the room suddenly became silent. Even the maids that were serving dared not speak and silently retreated to the side.
Shen Qiu and Shen Xin stared at Luo Ling but Luo Ling seemed to have suddenly gained the courage to continue speaking, "I know that my right arm is still not good now and talking about the family's characteristics, there are a lot of people in Ding Capital City that exceeds me but… I am willing to marry Xiǎo biǎomèi. I will always treat her well and not bring in any qiè or tōng fáng (higher-ranked maids that serve the masters in the bedchamber) and she would be the only one in the Inner Courtyard. Moreover…" Luo Ling smiled gently, "If Gūgū and Gūfū are worried about any actions from the Imperial family, I can bring her back to Xiao Chun City. Diē, Niáng and Zǔfù are there. They will also take care of Xiǎo biǎomèi and will not let Xiǎo biǎomèi suffer grievances. When Gūgū and Gūfū make the next expedition, one will be able to return to Xiao Chun City to visit Xiǎo biǎomèi."
"Biǎodì, you…" Shen Qiu could not speak. Not only Shen Qiu, Luo Xue Yan and Shen Xin were in a daze.
Luo Ling's remarks were simple and did not have those flowery promises but sincerity was the most valuable. Previously, Luo Xue Yan did think about these two children but could tell that Shen Miao only had brother and sister feelings, thus, she did not think more about it. Now, the situation was different at the moment. Luo Ling was a far better choice than the Crown Prince.
Luo Ling was considered to be watched by Shen Xin and wife as he grew up and his character was gentle and upright, which would be good to accommodate Shen Miao. Moreover, it was her Eldest Brother's son and still one family. Thus, when Shen Miao married, she would not have difficulties from her in-laws since Luo Lian Ying and Madam Yu liked Shen Miao a lot and might even be biased towards Shen Miao even more. The most important point was that Luo Ling can bring Shen Miao back to Xiao Chun City. The Heavens was high and the Emperor was far away, even if the Imperial family was unhappy, it would be too far away and Shen Miao would be able to be away from the limelight.
As the fight for the heir apparent became fiercer, Ming Qi's situation would become more complicated and the Ding Capital City would be more dangerous. Shen Xin was unable to leave the Ding Capital City due to his military power but did not want his children to be involved in this dangerous vortex. Shen Qiu was a male and had already entered officialdom, thus, he could not escape from it but for Shen Miao, Shen Xin always hoped that she could live peacefully and smoothly.
If she married into the Luo family, it was indeed a good choice.
Shen Xin stared at Luo Ling and his words were sharp, "Ling-er, now you marry to get Jiao Jiao out of this difficulty but what if in the future when you meet with the gūniáng that you fancy, what will you do then?"
There was a deeper meaning to these words but Luo Ling suddenly blushed and insisted, "One will not encounter a gūniáng that one fancy… I only fancy Xiǎo biǎomèi."
When Shen Qiu heard of it, he was suddenly overjoyed and slapped Luo Ling's shoulder, "Putting it that way, you have long liked Mèimèi?"
Luo Xue Yan was also somewhat surprised. Luo Ling's character was warm and independent and would not expose his emotions to others. Even though he would normally treat Shen Miao well, Luo Xue Yan had only thought that it was an older brother taking care of a younger sister. She, however, did not expect that Luo Ling had such intentions.
Luo Ling nodded his head.
"It is really convenient for you, brat!" Shen Qiu suddenly became somewhat dissatisfied and mouthed off.
"Qiu-er, shut your mouth!" Luo Xue Yan glared at Shen Qiu before looking at Luo Ling. The more she looked the more satisfied she became.
However, Shen Xin and Shen Qiu had different feelings. Their feelings were really very complicated. When no one wanted to marry Shen Miao, this father and son were not happy and when someone would marry her, they were also not happy. It was especially so for Shen Xin who felt that he had raised own daughter, who was as delicate as a flower and refined as precious jade, and now to marry this brat in front of him just like that, he had gotten it cheap! He felt that Luo Ling's nose was not a nose and his eyes were not eyes.
Shen Qiu said, "I did not say incorrectly. If this did not happen to our Jiao Jiao, one can just pick one among all the gentlemen of Ding Capital City and even choosing an immortal would not be an exaggeration. Who knew that this happened… And Biǎodì had gotten it cheap. One does not know what kind of virtuous acts one did in the past life."
Luo Xue Yan was furious, "You brat! Try speaking that nonsense again. No ivory will come out of a dog's mouth."
Luo Ling smiled, "Biǎogē said correctly, marrying Jiao Jiao is my blessing. But…" He said, "This matter has to be consulted with biǎomèi. If biǎomèi is not willing, then this matter need not be mentioned."
In the end, one would still have to respect Shen Miao's decision.
Luo Xue Yan and Shen Xin looked at each other and both of them understood each other. In the end, one had to see Shen Miao's attitude if she wanted to marry or not. However, in the current situation, one thought that Shen Miao would not hesitate to choose to marry Luo Ling. After all, being a Secondary Consort in the Eastern Palace was something that was not Shen Miao's preference. Moreover, compared to the Crown Prince, Luo Ling's appearance was handsome and his temperament was gentle and accommodating. He was obviously more in line with the expectation of a husband.
Luo Xue Yan said, "You should not be unduly humble. No matter what, your Gūfū and me, even your biǎogē, will be at your side."
Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were not happy being 'represented' by Luo Xue Yan but they did not refute.
Just as these few people were discussing the matter, suddenly a servant came in and reported, "Lǎoyé, Fūrén, there is someone at the door."
These days because of Shen Miao's matter, all the people in Ding Capital City who had some friendship with the Shen family all avoided them and would not take the initiative to come to their doors. One really did not think that at this time, someone would come. Shen Qiu asked casually, "Who is it?"
The servant said, "It is the Fūrén of the Count of Pin Nan."
Everyone, "…"
When Su Fūrén entered the room, she did not expect that Shen Qiu and Shen Xin would be there. Speaking of which, she was still somewhat afraid of Shen Xin because early on some years, Shen Xin and Su Yu had political disagreements, thus, Shen Xin would not give Su Yu any face. Naturally, Su Yu would not take Shen Xin to mind and thus, Su Fūrén was the same. If it was not because of Su Ming Feng, Su Fūrén would most likely never step into the doors of the Shen family.
Luo Xue Yan requested Su Fūrén to sit down and Su Fūrén also greeted Shen Xin. She smiled and looked towards Shen Qiu, "This should be the Dà shàoyé of the house. Indeed a handsome young talent. With one glance, one could see that he is not an ordinary person."
Shen Qiu successively declined and Su Fūrén looked at Luo Ling with a smile, "This is…"
Luo Xue Yan explained, "This is my Dàgē's érzi from my maiden family, Luo Ling."
The look that Su Fūrén gave to Luo Ling was somewhat strange and she asked while maintaining her composure "Does this Biǎo shàoyé have a marriage match yet?"
"Replying to Fūrén's words, one does not have yet." Luo Ling replied politely. Afterwards, he then looked at Su Fūrén questioningly, most likely he did not understand why this woman would ask him about a marriage match at the first encounter as it was a bit abrupt.
The more polite Luo Ling was, the weirder Su Fūrén looked at him. Upon careful observation, there was some sense of hostility. Naturally, the people surrounding would not be able to understand and know how bitter Su Fūrén's heart was. She did not think that there would be such an upright young Young Biao Master in the Shen family. Looking at this Young Biao Master, he had a good appearance and seemed sensible, he was indeed not bad. One had to know that it was easy for something to happen between Older Biao Brother and Younger Biao Sister and Shen Miao was still young of age and to a point of uncertainty be deceived by this Older Biao Brother. Like that, how would Su Ming Feng still have a chance? Su Fūrén kept her spirits up and decided to help her son to fight for it.
Because Shen Xin and the rest were males, it was not nice to sit down to hear females speaking, thus, he began to get up to leave. Thus, it was only left with Luo Xue Yan and Su Fūrén in the main hall. Luo Xue Yan smiled and asked, "What is the matter for Su Fūrén to come today?" She did not even send a card over which indicated her rush. Luo Xue Yan had a faint conjecture in her heart but dared not think deeper into it as she thought that she had imagined too much.
Su Fūrén said seriously, "That matter that I have discussed with Fūrén a few days back, what is the result of Fūrén's current consideration?"
Luo Xue Yan was startled. The matter discussed a few days back? What matter was discussed a few days back… Is it Su Ming Feng and Shen Miao's marriage matters?
Luo Xue Yan could not help feeling somewhat terrified, "Could it be that Su Fūrén had not heard about the recent rumours?" Even though she wished that there would be people who would marry Shen Miao and the more the merrier so that Shen Miao would have some choices. However, she did not wish to hide it from the other party and make the other fall into misfortune, thus the words she spoke were honest.
Su Fūrén asked, "What rumours?"
Luo Xue Yan's heart tightened and just simply said, "The rumour that Tàizǐ Diànxià has the intention to bring our daughter into the residence."
"So it is this matter." Su Fūrén smiled, "I have heard of it. The Gūniáng of the Shen family has unsurpassed behaviour and appearance that the Imperial family also kept thinking about."
When Su Fūrén said these words, there was not even a single mincing of words, she was much more magnanimous than Luo Xue Yan. However, Luo Xue Yan became somewhat confused. Was Su Fūrén's heart just too magnanimous? She did not understand the intention behind the Imperial family of Shen Miao or just did not care at all?
"You have heard about this matter and still consider Su Ming Feng's and Shen Miao's marriage?" Luo Xue Yan asked.
"Naturally one has to consider." Su Fūrén nodded her head, "One must not be that overbearing and only let the Su family set one's heart on Shen Xiǎojiě and not allow other families to set their hearts on Shen Xiǎojiě right? Fūrén, we the Su family are honest and sincere and would not be so overbearing."
Luo Xue Yan thought that Su Fūrén's thoughts were not on the same point and she straightforwardly made it clear and told her carefully, "Tàizǐ Diànxià has the intention to bring one's nǚ'ér back to the Eastern Palace. As we are all niángs, I would not hide it from Fūrén. One's nǚ'ér is not willing to be Cèfēi to others and thus, thought to marry early. However, this rumour was spread out and all the outstanding families are currently evading at all cost. Fūrén also understands who would want to have marriage relations with one's daughter at this time? That meant one would be going against the Imperial family. Angering the Imperial family would only let one suffer in the future… Su Fūrén, now do you understand my meaning? Do you still want to make marriage relations?"
The sincerity of these words was concealed and the bad points were all told straightforwardly to the other party. Su Fūrén, however, gradually smiled, "Could it be that Fūrén thought that I was a fool and unable to understand this matter?"
"One will also not hide from Fūrén." Su Fūrén smiled, "The current situation in Ding Capital City is just too complicated. Our family's Lǎoyé often said to avoid calamity and most probably unable to think of a way to avoid these matters. These two years, the family of the Count of Pin Nan had already withdrawn from the matters of the courts and speaking of that, it is almost like a normal official family, thus, not much concern is made in doing things. I understand that this marriage naturally would have its own danger but who let Ming Feng fancy it?"
Luo Xue Yan's eyes widened and asked with a loss of voice, "Fancy?" She had always thought that the words that Su Fūrén said were all courteous words and to perfunctory praise her. Now seeing from Su Fūrén's expression, it did not seem to be true.
"Of course." Su Fūrén said, "If it is not Ming Feng that had taken a fancy, how would I keep bugging Fūrén?" She sighed, "I have not seen Ming Feng interested in any gūniáng and know that this érzi of mine has a fixed mind. If one likes something, it would be too late to change it to another. Since he liked Shen Xiǎojiě, then in the future, it would not be possible for him to like another gūniáng. One feared that he would seek death and thus, fulfil his wish." Su Fūrén lowered her head and looked at her fingertips, "Because of the Su family, Ming Feng could not enter and pursue officialdom and expand his abilities. It is already us who had mistreated him and if this marriage does not go along with his wishes, then Lǎoyé and I can only feel that what we owe him, cannot be made up in this life."
As Luo Xue Yan listened, a little sorrow gradually raised in her heart. They were all mothers, naturally, there were places that they understood one another.
One heard Su Fūrén speaking again, "However, Fūrén can rest assured, even though our Su family are not an official family, one has enough money and shops. Thus, food is not a worry. When Shen Xiǎojiě marries over, Lǎoyé and I will treat her like our nǚ'ér and with Ming Feng's old fashioned thoughts and kind temperament, there would not be other females in the Inner Courtyard. The family is simple and even though Shen Xiǎojiě will not be able to live as luxurious as in Tàizǐ's Residence, she can still feel satisfied."
Luo Xue Yan's heart moved. Su Fūrén's words had gone into the depths of her heart. She did not seek for the person that Shen Miao married to, to be wealthy or noble, she only one the other person to be of upright character, good temperament, treat Shen Miao well and had a simple household. Su Ming Feng was indeed a good candidate.
Thinking of Luo Ling just now, Luo Xue Yan started to hesitate. Luo Ling was certainly not bad but Shen Miao had to return to Xiao Chun City. With Su Ming Feng, Shen Miao would be able to stay in Ding Capital City.
This time, due to various considerations, Luo Xue Yan did not reject Su Fūrén directly and only said that more thoughts were required. When Su Fūrén left, Luo Xue Yan then went to look for Shen Xin to discuss the matter. Of course, the most important thing was to see how Shen Miao reacted. Both persons were young talents and after one inquired about Su Ming Feng to confirm everything was alright, one will let Shen Miao take a look at her future husband.
Somehow, this matter was transmitted into Shen Miao's ears. When Luo Tan came looking for Shen Miao, she was smiling as pleased as punch, "On normal days, Xiǎo biǎomèi does not put a foot outside the house but one did not expect that fragrant wine fears no dark alleys. You see... Ling gēgē and the Dà shàoyé of the Su family had come to the doors and there was also that Tàizǐ. There are a total of three peach blossoms. In the eyes of others, one fear that they were envious to death."
Shen Miao was very helpless about it. Luo Ling would actually choose this time to voice out to marry her. The most unexpected thing that Shen Miao felt was that Su Fūrén would actually come again to grasp this marriage for Su Ming Feng.
Originally, the matter of Su Fūrén wanting to have marriage relations with the Shen family had made Shen Miao's heart filled with doubts. She had feared that Su Ming Feng did it to investigate Xie Jing Xing's identity. Now at this stage, the Su family did not hesitate to be enemies with the Imperial family to marry her, the more Shen Miao felt that Su Ming Feng was a dangerous person. Thinking that it was the best for Xie Jing Xing to resolve Su Ming Feng's matter, but… Shen Miao glanced at the window. One did not know when this person would return back. It was in troubled times but this person chose specifically this time to disappear for no reason. Shen Miao had some dissatisfaction in her heart.
Luo Tan still continued speaking, "Previously at Pu Tuo Monastery when the red rope was hung on the Tree of Cultivating Destinies, Xiǎo biǎomèi's red rope was hung at a very good place. At that time, I took a look and there were a lot of branches around the red ropes which one fears are the current peach blossoms. I see that these three blooms are not enough, there might be even six, seven or eight."
Shen Miao picked the teacup up and said at the same, "Do you think it is like cutting window flowers, one can cut as many flowers as one wanted?" Luo Ling had a warm and gentle character, the Su family was a marvellous family. It was already considered very rare to see two people who were not afraid to be enemies with the Imperial family. How would there be others? However, she remembered what that mad priest said about difficulties in peach blossoms and her heart could not help but jump. Could it be that the Taoist priest had said accurately?
Luo Tan still continued to talk to herself, "But Xiǎo biǎomèi's red rope was hung on the highest branch. That highest branch was the place of your destination. One does not know who will be my mèifū?"
Shen Miao drank a mouthful of tea and absent-mindedly listened to Luo Tan seriously speak her nonsense.
"It would be good if it is Rui Wáng Diànxià." Luo Tan clapped her hands, "Then as the tide rises, the boat flows, and I will be Rui Wáng's xiǎoyízi!." (小姨子 - Wife's younger sister)
Shen Miao was drinking tea at the moment and all the tea in her mouth sprayed out and she almost choked.
One did not expect that Luo Tan's prophecy came true and Shen Miao's peach blossoms when it comes, it was shocking. Just three blooms were indeed underestimating.
Translator Remarks: *Set up a booth* All right peeps!!! Place your bets!!! Our resident seer has spoken!!! Just how many 'blooms' will there be and who are they?
HidAnas: I actually would like to see Shen Miao and Su Ming Feng be together… I wonder how Xie Jing Xing would react… hahahahahaha!!!! Will he break Su Ming Feng's neck or throw him down the cliff??? Or will he let go of this flower?
