Princess Menglang is hard to change, the whole capital is embarrassed for her

The secret guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion hurried as fast as they could, but unexpectedly they were still a step behind.

Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhaoshi had already arrived at the military dog ​​base. They did not wait for Shen Shaokun to come with them. Thinking that the old housekeeper was there, if their son could not control his temper and made a noise, his father would hold him accountable, so they came here first.

As soon as they arrived at the base, before they even entered the door, they heard the howling of wolves and barking of dogs inside. A strong sense of intimidation came over them, making the two of them tremble with fear.

A girl in turquoise clothing came out and bowed to them. "My humble servant is honored to meet you. May I ask who you are..."

The old housekeeper quickly returned the greeting and said, "We are from the Prime Minister's Mansion. This is Miss Shen's father, Lord Shen, and this..."

The old housekeeper paused for a moment, passing over Xiao Zhao and speaking to the young lady, "They have something they want to talk to Miss Shen about. I don't know how to address you, but could you please go in and pass a message to Miss Shen? We'll be waiting for her here."

The one who came out was Ding Lan. She was brought here by her brother Ding Lang, and she became a little follower of the three masters' daughters.

Hearing the dogs' barking, she guessed that a stranger had entered their territory, so she led the black mastiff out.

The black mastiff saw Xiao Zhaoshi and hid behind Ding Lan, grunting twice, looking as if he was not very willing to see her.

Xiao Zhao also saw the black mastiff, and suddenly remembered the scene when her son was teased by Shen Li when he asked Shen Li to return the black mastiff. The hatred in her heart that was forcibly suppressed by the prime minister suddenly surged, and her anger almost burst out.

When Ding Lan heard what the old housekeeper said, he glanced at Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhao.

Are these Miss Shen’s father and stepmother?

What are they here for?

"Please wait a moment, I'll be back soon." Ding Lan turned and walked inside. After two steps, he stopped and turned back to remind them, "Everyone, please don't run around. The dogs are wild and difficult to tame. It would be bad if they accidentally bite you."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Xiao Zhao snorted at Shen Zhaojiang, "This girl didn't even invite us in after hearing about our identities. It's obvious that Shen Li doesn't usually give face to you as her father."

Shen Zhaojiang turned a deaf ear.

The old butler didn't even raise his eyelids.

Both of them pretended not to hear Xiao Zhao's nagging and treated her as air.

Little Zhao was still chattering, "Did you see that big black mastiff? It was Kun'er who raised it since it was a child, but Shen Li took it for herself and she refused to acknowledge it. Kun'er went to ask for it but she refused to give it to him. Kun'er was so angry..."

Shen Shaokun was so angry that he went crazy and kept shouting that he wanted to find a way to kill Shen Li.

This little Zhao can’t be said.

"If she hadn't provoked me again and again, Kun'er wouldn't have been forced into a fight with her. It's all your fault, Master. You shouldn't have let her come back. Look at how many things have happened since she came back. Every single one of them has caused chaos at home..."

"That's enough," Xiao Zhao was complaining indignantly. Shen Zhaojiang shouted, frightening her so much that she shuddered. "Are you done yet?"

If you ignore her, she will really think she is right.

"What did my father-in-law say? Don't treat others as fools, right?" Shen Zhaojiang looked at Shen Li and Cui Lan'er walking towards him from a distance and said with a cold face, "I hope you will remember his teachings and remember why you came here today."

Cui Lan'er looked at the people outside the door from a distance. The guards stood there straight. She was very unconvinced. "Sister Li, I have to teach the guards someday. If annoying people come, they should learn to bite them like dogs and scare them into peeing first."

Shen Li didn't say anything. She had just come out of the palace, and the scene of Xiao Zhao hysterically yelling at her to die was still in her mind. She really couldn't understand why Xiao Zhao came here to find her.

Still a few steps away, the old housekeeper bowed and said, "This humble servant greets Miss Shen."

"Please get up."

The old housekeeper stood up, still bent over, and said, "I am the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The Prime Minister asked my aunt and uncle to come here..."

Glancing at Cui Lan'er and the guards, the old housekeeper, wanting to save some face for Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhaoshi, pleaded, "Miss Shen, could you, uh, spare me a moment?"

Shen Li looked back at Cui Lan'er, but before she could speak, Cui Lan'er shook her head repeatedly, "No, I want to go with you. Sister Li, don't be fooled by them. None of them are good people. They will definitely have something bad to do with you."

After she finished speaking, the wolf cub in her hand howled to the sky. Cui Lan'er was suddenly happy, "Sister Li, look, even the wolf cub thinks I'm right."

The old butler was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and did not dare to say anything more. He could only bow his body again and kowtow deeply.

"Old man, if you have anything to say, you might as well speak directly. Lan'er is my family. I don't hide anything from her. She can listen to it right here," Shen Li said, and then said to the guard, "You go in first, and I'll call you out later."

From beginning to end, she didn't even look at Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhaoshi.

Only after the guards had gone away did the old housekeeper wipe his sweat under Cui Lan'er's glare, then bowed and said, "It's like this. The Prime Minister is very angry about what my aunt did, so he ordered my aunt and my husband to come here together to apologize to you in person."

Shen Li raised her brows.

Apologize?

What is the old prime minister doing?

An act like apologizing is not something that an old prime minister who has served in two dynasties should do.

unless......

He believed what Xiao Zhao said and felt that he had superpowers. If he didn't give in, would he pose a threat to Xiao Zhao?

Shen Li admires this old father's heart.

After all, people are not clear-headed in the situation. No matter how wise the old prime minister is in the court, he doesn't know his own daughter well enough. Given Xiao Zhao's character, would she sincerely apologize?

Go ahead and fool the devil.

Seeing that Shen Li didn't respond, the old housekeeper didn't dare to say anything more. He turned around and waved to Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhao, "Aunt, uncle, please."

Cui Lan'er couldn't help but mutter, "Sister Li, they are not here to set you up, are they? Let me come and apologize to my daughter. If this gets out, Sister Li, your reputation as an unfilial person will be firmly established."

"Isn't it said that the old prime minister is a good person? How could he do such a thing? Sister Li, I will tell my father when I get home and have him argue with the old prime minister when he goes to court."

When the old housekeeper heard this, he broke out in a sweat.

He knew Cui Lan'er, the beloved daughter of the iron-tongued Censor Cui, who brought a snake into the palace and almost scared all the nobles in the palace to death.

With Censor Cui protecting her, the Queen did not dare to convict her.

Everyone in Shangjing knows that no one should mess with Censor Cui and his daughter.

"Miss Cui, please don't misunderstand. The Prime Minister would never have such thoughts," the old housekeeper wiped his sweat and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear. "Speaking of which, it should be me who is more embarrassed to apologize to my daughter. Miss Cui, is that not the truth?"

Cui Lan'er was stunned and scratched her head.

Ok?

It seems that this is really the case.

Shen Zhaojiang and Xiao Zhao looked at each other, and neither of them took the first step.

Just thinking about bowing to a junior makes me angry.

The wolf cub howled again, which was really scary. Shen Li frowned.

somebody is coming?

Hiding in the most lush tree?

"Stop," Shen Li said loudly to the old housekeeper, "There's no need to apologize. I won't accept it. The person they feel most sorry for is my mother. If you really want to repent, go to my mother's grave and kneel there until my mother comes back to life and forgives them."
