Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.

Yun Shengsheng held the bright yellow imperial edict in her hand, somewhat conflicted.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but not knowing how to say it.

She looked into Yan Shijin's beautiful eyes, which were quietly watching her, clearly waiting for her answer. She felt a little frustrated and could only confide in Xiao Mao Tuanzi.

[Master, Yan Shijin is just a little kid, not even nine or ten years old! He's already thinking about getting married at such a young age?]

Does he even know what it means to marry a wife?

Does he know what the future crown princess does every day?

The little dumpling shook its head: "People in ancient times matured early, you probably know that!"

Yun Shengsheng pursed her lips: [Even people in ancient times matured this early!]

[And did he consider that if he actually issued the decree, many people would be watching me every day, nitpicking and finding fault with everything?]

[Many noble ladies will probably see me as a thorn in their side, and who knows, maybe one day the Empress won't be able to stand the gossip and will have to find a governess to teach me etiquette and palace rules!]

[Oh my god, I'm not even seven years old yet, is my life really going to be this tragic?]

[I've never been in a relationship in both of my lives combined, and wow, I'm suddenly a child bride?]

The little dumpling was speechless.

Although it's a romance system, it doesn't support dating so early!

[Yan Shijin has the nerve to call it serious consideration? A nine-year-old's seriousness? What's the difference between that and playing house? He'll probably see another interesting and pretty little girl tomorrow and forget everything he said today.]

Besides, what's so great about marrying into the royal family? If I become the principal wife, there will be four concubines, concubines of the second rank, concubines of the third rank, and so on.

What kind of crazy idea would I have to want to become the Crown Princess?!

Yun Shengsheng glanced at Yan Shijin again, feeling somewhat troubled.

[But Yan Shijin is, after all, His Highness the Crown Prince. I can't just contradict him because he's young. That would be tantamount to throwing my life away!]

But I'm still young, and I don't want to shoulder so much responsibility at such a young age!

But if we don't say it directly, wouldn't it be even more troublesome if Yan Shijin misunderstands...?

Yan Shijin sat opposite Yun Shengsheng, watching her face scrunch up. Hearing her heartfelt refusal, Yan Shijin maintained his calm and composed demeanor, but beneath his wide sleeves, his fingers had already quietly clenched.

Sure enough, he was still too young and simply didn't believe him.

I don't believe in his seriousness, and I don't believe in his sincerity.

At this moment, he felt a tightness in his chest, and even breathing became difficult.

Yun Shengsheng's lips moved, as if she was finally about to speak.

Yan Shijin's heart tightened, and he spoke first before she could.

He spoke a few seconds faster than usual, as if afraid she would say something that would leave him with no way out: "Sheng Sheng, there's no rush."

"You don't need to rush to answer me."

"You can go back and think about it again. You can tell me when you've made up your mind."

Upon hearing this, Yun Shengsheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She nodded and casually stuffed the imperial edict back into Yan Shijin's arms: "Then Brother Shijin, you should keep this."

"I'm young and clumsy; it would be bad if I lost it."

Yan Shijin looked at the imperial edict that had been stuffed back into his arms, and his lips moved.

He originally wanted to say, "This imperial edict is for you; you can keep it."

It takes effect whenever you want it to.

But before he could speak, Yun Shengsheng's thoughts drifted over again.

"Master, it would be best to return this imperial edict as soon as possible."

[Yan Shijin is good to me now, willing to give me such great benefits. But who knows what the future holds? What if he grows up, finds a girl he truly likes, and wants to back out, but is too embarrassed to ask me for it back?]

By then, this thing in my hands will not be a blessing, but rather a death warrant.

As the saying goes, you can't test human nature.

[Just like the imperial edicts and certificates bestowed by founding emperors, they were given with utmost sincerity, as if they wanted to tear their hearts out to show them to the emperor.]

But when I wanted to take it back later, that "sincerity" became a lump in my throat, so I decided against it; I don't gamble with people's hearts.

The little dumpling nodded: "That seems to make sense!"

Yan Shijin opened her mouth.

He wanted to say that he wouldn't do that.

But in the end, he sighed inwardly, said nothing, and silently put the imperial edict away.

But it's okay, there's plenty of time.

When he grows up and becomes more capable, he will show Sheng Sheng through his actions that what he says today will stand the test of time.

The two of them barely spoke the rest of the way.

Yun Shengsheng quietly finished her meal in the imperial kitchen and then leaned against the carriage wall to doze off.

My mind is a mess.

"Tongzi, this is the first time in both my lifetimes that someone has proposed to me."

But the other person just happens to be a nine-year-old child.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved. But to say I was moved—a nine-year-old proposing to a six-year-old like me—it felt like an elementary school student proposing to a kindergartener.

[But it's alright, at least I still have a market...]

The little dumpling suddenly asked, "If Yan Shijin were eighteen and you were fifteen, and he proposed to you, would you say yes?"

Yun Shengsheng was slightly taken aback, then frowned and pondered deeply. Finally, she shook her head.

【I have no idea……】

After she finished speaking, she secretly opened one eye and looked at Yan Shijin.

At this moment, Yan Shijin also sat quietly to the side. He probably wanted to read a book, but couldn't concentrate, so he simply closed his eyes to rest.

A ray of sunlight shone through the crack in the car window, falling on Yan Shijin's profile and gilding his eyebrows and eyes with a golden light, making him appear even more exquisite and dazzling.

Yun Shengsheng's heart pounded as she watched, but she eventually turned away and refused to look anymore.

Yun Shengsheng was distracted throughout the entire day of classes.

After class in the evening, she greeted Yan Shijin and walked towards the other end of the academy.

Fifth Senior Brother Song Yuping stipulated that as long as she came to the academy to study, she had to go to him to learn medicine every evening after class.

Yun Shengsheng had no choice but to go, even if she didn't want to.

She was lost in thought with her head down when suddenly everything went dark in front of her as someone blocked her way.

She looked up at the people blocking the road and narrowed her eyes.

It turned out to be Weijinlou.

How did this person end up here?

Wei Jinlou stood in front of Yun Shengsheng with an innocent smile on his face, tinged with a touch of shyness.

He was quite handsome, with delicate features, and wearing the academy's uniform blue and white scholar's robes, he had a rather elegant air about him.

But in Yun Shengsheng's eyes, this person was calculating from head to toe, and his true nature was black.

"My name is Wei Jinlou, greetings to Princess Jinrong..."
