Li fainted on the spot when he collapsed and told Xu Ting that the burden of telling Xu Ting about the marriage was on Wang. Wang was very unhappy. She always could do something evil, but this time she really couldn't escape. Rubbing her tight forehead, Wang took a deep breath and made people call Xu Ting over.

Wang said to Xu Ting concisely, "You must know that the emperor wants to marry Princess Chang'an to Rouran, and you will also choose ten more women from aristocratic families to give up their marriage. Our Xu family is fortunate to be favored, and the Ministry of Rites has chosen... you!" Wang skipped the daughter of the Xu family and directly named Xu Ting to avoid another dispute.

Xu Ting's decent smile froze on her face, "Have you chosen me?"

Wang nodded, "The imperial edict has arrived, this matter cannot be wrong! You should prepare well, and you will enter the palace in three days to thank you!"

Xu Ting's stiff face collapsed a little bit, and she murmured, "Why is it me? Why did the thousands of young ladies from aristocratic families in the entire capital pick me?" The Xu family was so inconspicuous, why did she suddenly pick the Xu family?

Wang couldn't bear to look at Xu Ting's wretched look, but he still had to make up his mind to alert her, "I know you can't accept it for a while. This is an imperial edict. The resistance of the edict will require the whole family to be executed. The rise, decline, honor and disgrace of the Xu family depends on you. Your words and deeds represent the Xu family, but you must not make any mistakes!"

"Okay, you go back first and have a good rest. I will talk to you about entering the palace tomorrow!" Wang waved his hand and asked someone to support the limp Xu Ting back to Shaohua Residence.

Xu Ting was still muttering to herself, "Why is it me? Why did she choose the Xu family?"

Xu Ting's crazy look scared Ye Qing. Ye Qing couldn't help but say, "Would Miss Jiu be the one who interfered with it... Miss Jiu has always been favored by the Empress Dowager. It is not difficult to frame the lady with the hand of the Empress Dowager..."

Is this Xu Shu’s revenge on her? It’s really cruel!

Xu Ting suddenly burst into laughter, but at the end she started crying again. After crying a few times, she started laughing again, and laughing again, and she repeated the cycle, as if she was crazy.

Ye Qing was so scared that she hid aside for fear that Xu Ting would do something extreme. She glanced at the door not far away, then lowered her body and moved to the door along the wall. She wanted to see it and moved to the door. Suddenly, she heard Xu Ting calling her name, and she was so scared that her legs were weak and she knelt down.

"Ye Qing, help me change my clothes, I'm going to see my mother!" After the madness, Xu Ting returned to her calmness, recalling that Wang just told her that the Ministry of Rites had paused for a moment, and Wang's eyes dodged, which made her feel that there was something wrong with this, and she wanted to confirm this matter again to Li!

Xu Ting went to Chunhui Courtyard with red and swollen eyes. Xu Ting was used to going to Chunhui Courtyard, but no one stopped her and let her in. Li had already woken up and was leaning against the bed post. When he saw Xu Ting coming, he called out, "My poor son!" and rushed towards Xu Ting and cried bitterly.

"Sister Ting, I'm sorry for you! It's my mother who hurt you! If I had made a marriage for you earlier, you wouldn't have been selected by the Ministry of Rites! If you want to blame me, blame me!"

Xu Ting hugged Li and cried with her heart, "Mother, no one blames her daughter, this is her daughter's life! God wants her daughter to go to Rouran, just let her daughter go, but the daughter can't bear to leave her mother. If her daughter really goes to Rouran, she will never see her mother again in her life!"

When he thought that the mother and daughter would be farewell for a while, Li's tears fell even more fiercely, "This is not your life, it shouldn't be that you went so far. There are so many daughters in the Xu family, why must it be you!"

Sure enough, something was strange! Xu Ting breathed a sigh of relief and chased Li and asked, "Why did my mother say that? Isn't the name of my daughter written in the imperial edict?"

Li nodded sadly, "The imperial edict only says the Xu family's legitimate daughter. Our Xu family has several legitimate daughters, but your grandfather and grandmother have determined that it is you, saying that you are the biggest one. Who else can you be? Your father will not help you, and watch them push you into the fire pit!"

It turns out that the imperial edict is not written with his own name...

That's good! There is still a turning point in this matter, after all, the Xu family still has several legitimate daughters!

Xu Ting felt relieved and said with a sad expression, "It is understandable that grandparents have decided to be a daughter. Compared to Jiumei, the daughter is really useless. Jiumei has been famous in the capital for a long time, and grandfather has benefited a lot. Especially last year, Jiumei helped King Ji to solve the accusation case and became famous in the capital. Grandfather was also praised for this. Jiumei brought such great glory to the Xu family and left a name in front of the emperor. But the daughter has been unknown since childhood. If it weren't for someone close to her, I wouldn't have known that the Xu family had a daughter like me, and I just thought that our Xu family had only the ninth sister, a legitimate daughter!"

Li's expression suddenly seemed to have thought of something. Could the Xu family's legitimate daughter mentioned in the imperial edict refer to Xu Shu? After all, it is difficult for people like the Xu family to figure out how many legitimate daughters it has and how many concubines it has. It happened that Xu Shu is famous, so it is not impossible for the Xu family to mistakenly think that the Xu family is just a legitimate daughter like Xu Shu. Moreover, the other candidates for marriage are from famous families, and the Xu family is far behind the family. If this person is Xu Shu, at least Xu Shu's reputation can barely make up for the gap in family background and status, otherwise it would be too unreasonable!

When Mrs. Deng instructed Mr. Deng to instruct the Ministry of Rites to act, he deliberately wrote only the daughter of the Xu family. After Mrs. Deng calculated with his fingers, he found that Xu Ting was the only one in the Xu family who was qualified to be included in the marriage candidate. However, if he named Xu Ting, a nameless person, would inevitably make people suspect that he was deliberately targeted, so he only wrote about the daughter of the Xu family. Anyway, Xu Ting was the only one among the daughters of the Xu family. What Mrs. Deng did not expect was that her act of avoiding suspicion became an excellent excuse for Xu Ting to escape.

"You are right! You are right! This person shouldn't be yours! You are not talking about you!" Li seemed to have grabbed the key to open the cage in the dark cage, and a smile appeared on his face as if he was reborn.

Xu Ting pretended to be confused, "Mother, what are you talking about? What are you talking about? Isn't that what you said?"

Li Wuxia explained to Xu Ting, just said, "You just go back and rest with peace of mind! My mother already knows what to do about this matter, and she will definitely not let you go so far!"

Li pushed Xu Ting out with all her might, and ordered people to change their clothes and dress up, and they were about to go out.
