Chapter 494 A Dream of Red Mansions - Wang Xifeng 21

Fortunately, it only took half a month for the young lady of the Zhang family to successfully come to Beijing. After learning that Miss Zhang and Jia Lian had successfully met and had an engagement and exchanged engagement letters, Wang Xifeng took the opportunity to collect the Soul-Devouring Stone when she visited her uncle Wang Ziteng every day.

In the afternoon, after finishing her work, Zhen ran to Wang Ziteng's bedside to guard it as before. Looking at Wang Ziteng's increasingly thin face, Zhen cried, and her tears dripped onto Wang Ziteng's face. Unexpectedly, she woke Wang Ziteng up.

"Is it raining?"

Wang Ziteng's mind was still confused. When his consciousness was sucked into the Soul-Devouring Stone, Wang Ziteng seemed to have entered an endless darkness. He could not see the boundaries and could not feel the passage of time.

I just felt endless emptiness and confusion surrounding me, and gradually my consciousness began to blur. Just when I was about to lose consciousness completely, I felt a cool breeze. However, this cool breeze could only keep me from losing consciousness, and it could not wake me up from this emptiness.

It was not until the last time of cooling that Wang Ziteng's consciousness was completely restored. Only when he felt the coolness on his face did he wake up from the darkness.

"Master, you're awake!"

Although Wang Ziteng's voice was very soft, Zhen had been paying attention to his reaction all the time, so she naturally noticed it at the first time. At this time, Zhen's voice was full of surprise.

"Madam? What's wrong with me?"

Wang Ziteng only remembered that when he returned to the study and wrote back to Mrs. Wang, he saw a black stone on the desk. The stone seemed to have a bewitching charm, which made Wang Ziteng pick it up involuntarily...

Wang Ziteng couldn't remember what happened next and could only listen to Zhen's explanation.

Wang Ziteng tried to clench his hands. Although his hands were weak, there was no problem with his movements. The only difference was that the black stone that Zhen said she could not take out was missing.

Wang Ziteng frowned. He felt that the stone might be some kind of evil object. If it was still there, he must find it and destroy it.

"Gone?"

But now the stone was gone. Although Wang Ziteng was scared, he was also relieved. "It's gone, so it's gone. It's something that can harm people. I just hope it won't be secretly picked up by ignorant people."

Next, Wang Ziteng learned from Zhen's narration about his niece Wang Xifeng's caring behavior and his nephew Wang Ren's secretly delighted reaction when he was unconscious. Wang Ziteng was satisfied with Wang Xifeng's behavior but not moved, but was really disappointed, heartbroken and angry about Wang Ren's reaction.

In Wang Ziteng's opinion, no matter how good Wang Xifeng is, she is just a girl. It would be a sincere gesture for him to consider her happiness a little when using her.

At least what he did was much better than those people who gave their daughters away as goods to pay off debts. But Wang Ziteng really cared about his nephew Wang Ren. He himself could not have children, and Wang Ren was the only child of the Wang family. He had long regarded Wang Ren as the inheritance of his bloodline.

But he didn't expect Wang Ren to be so cold-blooded and ruthless. Wang Ziteng himself was also a selfish person. After learning that "investing" in Wang Ren might not necessarily provide him with a secure place to live in his old age, he decided to give up on Wang Ren.

But before that, Wang Ren has to find a wife. Once Wang Ren gives birth to the next heir of the Wang family, this useless man can be gotten rid of.

Miss Zhang and Jia Lian's marriage was settled. Mrs. Wang was already very nervous. She had not expected that her brother would fail her at the critical moment. Now that there was no way to save the situation, she stopped struggling.

"Feng Ge'er will be of marriageable age in half a year. Since we can't keep her in our hands, we must at least let her get married quickly. We must not let my brother send Feng Ge'er to the palace!"

Mrs. Wang had to settle for the second best and planned to instigate Wang Ziteng to marry Wang Xifeng off as soon as possible after Wang Ziteng woke up. As long as Wang Xifeng was married off, even if she could not become her tool in the Jia family, at least she would not become an obstacle or opponent to Yuanchun!

Jia Lian was generally satisfied with his cousin Miss Zhang. Miss Zhang looked somewhat similar to Jia Lian's biological mother, Zhang. Although Jia Lian had never seen his biological mother, he could feel a sense of familiarity when he met Miss Zhang.

Although Jia Lian was a playboy and a lecher at this time, he really wanted to have a good marriage with his cousin Miss Zhang from the bottom of his heart. He even sent out the servants in the room in advance for Miss Zhang's sake.

Miss Zhang has been educated by scholars since she was young, and all the men she met were well-behaved scholars. When she first saw Jia Lian, a romantic and passionate nobleman, she was immediately bewitched by his face. Later, when she heard that Jia Lian had sent a concubine to her for her, she fell even more deeply in love with him.

The two of them seem to be in love with each other. As long as both parties remain unchanged, this engagement may really become a happy marriage.

After Wang Ziteng woke up, the news spread quickly. When Wang Ziteng learned that Jia Lian was engaged to Miss Zhang, he regretted it so much that he could only consider Prince Beijing.

It happened that the Beijing Prince's wife, Miss Zhen Er, was pregnant, and without waiting for Wang Ziteng's reply, the Beijing Prince's Mansion regretted its decision.

Although Prince Beijing had a deep impression of Wang Xifeng, so much time had passed after all and his memory had long since degraded. The reason he could remember Wang Xifeng was naturally more out of consideration for Wang Ziteng.

Wang Ziteng did not respond for a long time, and Prince Beijing was unhappy. He thought that Wang Ziteng looked down on him as a junior, and he already regretted it a little. However, he was the one who took the initiative to propose the marriage, and the other party had not clearly said that they did not agree, but he regretted it first, and it would not be good to make it known to others.

Now that the princess happened to be pregnant, for the sake of the eldest son in the princess's belly, Prince Beijing naturally could not propose to marry a concubine at this time, so he took the opportunity to find a way out for himself and ended the proposal.

"I was only in a coma for half a month, how come nothing works?!"

What should I do now? Will Feng Ge'er be in trouble? Wang Ziteng's first reaction was this, and his second reaction was, is Feng Ge'er destined to enter the palace?

As for marrying Wang Xifeng to someone else, Wang Ziteng had never thought about it.

As the daughter of the Wang family, Wang Xifeng could either marry into the noble families of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes like other people, or enter the palace to gain more for the Wang family. It was absolutely impossible for her to leave the noble group and marry out.

The reason why Jia Min of Rongguo Mansion was able to marry the newly-crowned top scholar Lin Ruhai was because Lin Ruhai's ancestors were also noble, and Jia Daishan was capable. Otherwise, Jia Min would most likely have married a prince or married back into the Shi family.

Soon it was the day of Jia Lian and Miss Zhang's wedding. As the relatives of the Jia family, the Wang family naturally had to be present. Wang Xifeng followed her aunt Zhen into Rongguo Mansion again after three years. Seeing the scene in front of her, which was decorated with lights and colors as if it was a re-enactment of Jia Zhu's wedding day, she felt relieved.
