As soon as Lan asked the question, everyone's eyes turned to Shen Li.

Shen Li put down her chopsticks with a smile and said to Lan, "I said that to discourage Xiao Chenze. If there really was a marriage, I would have told my grandmother and aunt long ago after coming back so long. There's no such thing, it's really not happening."

It was obvious that everyone felt relieved after hearing her words.

Lan scolded, "You kid, you scared your aunt. How can you joke about something like this? No, no, even if you want to reject him, you can come up with a different excuse, but you can't say you're already engaged. That's not a good excuse. A girl's family will have to worry about her in-laws in the future. You said you're engaged, who would dare to act as a matchmaker for you?"

"I think your excuse is a good one, and it's quite effective," Fang Jitao said. "The eldest prince needs a strong dose of medicine like you did to make him behave. Otherwise, no matter what excuse you use, he won't back down. I think you're right. If you don't want to get entangled with him, you should leave him no loopholes to exploit."

Snap.

Lan raised her hand and patted his head. "You're the only one who talks too much. You're so understanding, how could you call Miss Lan stupid?"

"She is just stupid, mother. If you hit me on the head again, be careful and make me stupid too."

"You talk as if you're not stupid," Lan rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Shen Li and said, "Child, if you don't want to agree to the eldest prince, just tell your uncle. He has a way. It's not up to you to worry about it. Don't worry, let your uncle go to the palace tomorrow and tell the emperor that we won't marry into the royal family anymore."

Fang Yao hummed a sigh and put down his chopsticks. "Anything is fine, but it's a pity for Xiao Chenze. Ever since Qiluo and the others said he was very secretive, I've sent people to follow him for quite a while. Everyone who came back said that he only appeared unreliable, but in fact, he was calm and steady. If I had to choose one among the princes, he would be the most worthy choice. However, it doesn't matter if you don't want to marry. Besides marriage, there are other ways to stand on his side. Don't worry about it, I will handle it myself."

The night is deep.

After the family had dinner and chatted for a while, they all went to bed.

Shen Li opened her eyes wide and listened quietly to the noise outside.

Fang Mingwan fell asleep, and the girl who was on night watch also fell asleep.

Just in time.

She turned over and sat up, casually tied her hair, and entered the space with a thought.

She had been to the house where Xiao Zhao lived. It was not far from the hot spring villa compensated to her by the Duke of Wei's Mansion. It covered an area of ​​hundreds of acres, with gray tiles, white walls, and a tall gatehouse. It looked very imposing at first glance.

A man who was caught cheating was not drowned in a pond, nor was he tied up and forced to kneel down and beg for mercy in front of everyone. Instead, he lived in such an exquisite villa. Even if he was really not allowed to go out for the rest of his life, Shen Li was not satisfied with such an outcome.

She changed into tights, looked in the mirror, and went to the villa where Xiao Zhao lived based on her memory.

Standing on the roof and looking down, there were guards patrolling the yard, two groups in total, four people in each group. You could tell they were martial artists by looking at their posture.

Shen Li sneered.

Even such a master could be escaped by Xiao Zhao, and even ran to the gate of Shen Mansion to curse people. It was too obvious that the guards were letting him go.

Although the old prime minister was angry, he still protected his daughter.

Looking down from a high altitude, the center of the villa was built quite exquisitely and guarded more strictly. Even at this time, there were still maids on duty in the kitchen.

No need to guess, this is where Xiao Zhao lives.

She was also accused of adultery by her husband's family. Thinking about her mother who had been suffering from illness on the farm and had fallen into the water and had no strength to climb ashore, and looking at the servants and maids serving Xiao Zhao, Shen Li's anger suddenly flared up.

He immediately turned around and followed the space into Xiao Zhao's house.

As soon as I landed, the sound of snoring from the tent inside the house came into my ears.

Shen Li quietly lifted the tent and hung it up with the tent hook.

The moonlight spread on the ground, and Xiao Zhao's face could be vaguely seen.

He slept so soundly.

"Hey, hey, wake up, snap..."

Unable to wake her up, Shen Li slapped Xiao Zhao in the face. Xiao Zhao suddenly opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling of the tent. She was about to fall asleep again in a daze when she suddenly felt something was wrong. She turned her head and saw a person standing beside the bed.

Ah!

Just as she was about to scream, Shen Li reached out and pinched her, then removed her jaw.

She opened her mouth wide and screamed twice, tears and saliva streaming down her face in pain.

"I advise you not to scream," Shen Li put her hand on her quilt and wiped it, then looked up at her bedroom. "If you scream and attract the guards outside, I will break your neck."

Xiao Zhao's eyes widened in horror.

Is it Shen Li?

It's her voice.

Oh my God, how did she get in?

There are so many guards outside, and all of them have high martial arts skills. Even the Prime Minister's Mansion's top secret guards may not be able to sneak in without alerting the guards. How did she do it?

Thinking about how her father had specially arranged these people for her, and how her father said that someone must have framed her, if she wanted to find the person who framed her, she should just wait here patiently, and he would eventually show up.

She waited for so many days, but no one came. She thought her father was too old and confused and no one would come.

what!

Hahahaha!

Shen Li is here!

It turned out to be Shen Li!

It turned out to be Shen Li!

Xiao Zhao's eyes seemed to be filled with poison as she glared at Shen Li viciously.

Shen Li kicked the night watch girl who had fainted under her spell, looked around the bedroom, and came to Xiao Zhao's bed with her hands behind her back. "You can't move, right?"

Xiao Zhao looked at her without saying anything.

"That's right, you can't move." Shen Li didn't need Xiao Zhao's answer. "I sprayed you with some medicine, anesthesia."

She glanced at Xiao Zhao and said, "It's okay. I just made you unable to move. Your head is still clear."

In order to let Xiao Zhao feel it, Shen Li deliberately lifted her arm and twisted it hard, "Look, it doesn't hurt, right?"

Then he took out a dagger and stabbed it into Xiao Zhao's arm. Blood gushed out. "Look, it doesn't hurt like this, right?"

Xiao Zhao's eyes quickly changed from anger to fear.

Shen Li reached out and gave her a big slap in the face, "Don't be afraid, don't you like to torture people? Aren't you vicious? Keep going. I still like your arrogant look. When I just returned to the capital, I saw you trying so hard to pretend to be virtuous and it was really disgusting. Viciousness is your true nature, why are you pretending?"

Bang, another big slap in the face.

Everything is quiet!

The sound of a slap in the ear seems particularly loud.

Xiao Zhao looked out the window with despair on her face. Where were the guards? Where was the dog?

Where is the night watchwoman in the kitchen who always keeps hot water ready for her?

Anyone who paid more attention would have known that something was wrong with her.

Unfortunately, she considered them inferior people and did not allow them to appear in the house where she lived. They were only allowed to serve outside.

Inside was her world, and she was used to swearing and throwing things around. Even if she was louder, people outside would think she was angry again.

This is really what you deserve.

Shen Li dragged a chair over and sat down, facing Xiao Zhao's face, and said to her, "Do you remember the Madam Lu you sent to pick me up?"

Little Zhao's eyes rolled around.

Shen Li said, "I killed him."

Xiao Zhao's eyes immediately widened.
