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

Without going into how the Shen family arranged Shen Li's funeral, let's just say that after Nanny Zheng returned to the palace from the general's residence and asked everyone to leave, she came to the empress dowager, massaged her legs, and whispered something.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. Everything is settled at the General's Mansion. When I went there, several other ladies were visiting Old Madam Fang, so I naturally didn't dare to say anything, and there was no need to say anything. Just seeing how red Lan's eyes were, I was relieved. She wouldn't reveal anything. Besides, no matter what, the murdered Miss Ding died because of Miss Shen. The Fang family has always been conscientious and loyal, and it can be seen that they are truly grieving for that girl. This debt owed, alas, will never be repaid in this lifetime."

After hearing her words, the Queen Mother patted her chest and sighed, "Who could have imagined this? This happened so suddenly. The assassin deliberately took advantage of Chen'er's absence from the capital to strike. Could it be that he was really targeting Chen'er? This was such a dangerous situation. If Chen'er hadn't taken Miss Li away, who knows how big a mess it would have been."

The two of them sighed deeply. Nanny Zheng said, "If it weren't for the rumors that Miss Shen was assassinated and the Emperor came to tell you out of fear that something might happen to you, we wouldn't have known that Miss Shen had actually gone to the Northern Frontier with the First Prince."

The Queen Mother also laughed when she heard this. "That child is a blessing. It's a pity that the girl surnamed Ding is gone. I heard that she has an older brother at home. When Chen'er and the others come back, let's ask the Emperor to give her family a reward."

Nanny Zheng said nothing, lowered her head, and gently massaged the empress dowager's legs.

Shen House.

Little Zhao was both nervous and excited. She hadn't expected her elder sister, Big Zhao, to be so efficient. Recalling her elder sister's sinister tone when she secretly told her about having a killer kill her brother-in-law's concubine, she couldn't help but admire her from the bottom of her heart. Her elder sister was much more experienced than she was.

"I heard the killer didn't leave any clues. Fang Yao sent out so many people, but except for one who was shot dead by that bitch Qili at the beginning, the others didn't find a single hair."

Ever since the news of Shen Li's death came, Mother Li has become more energetic. She goes out again and again to inquire about the situation, and then comes back to tell Xiao Zhao about it.

"What about the one who was shot to death? Was there really nothing found on his body?" asked Xiao Zhao.

"Really not," Madam Li whispered. "Madam, what do you think? If they discovered something, would Fang Yao's people run around the streets like headless flies? You didn't see that they searched almost the entire capital, over and over again. The inspections at the city gates were more than ten times stricter than before, and many people started complaining."

Xiao Zhao covered her chest with her hands, where her heart was pounding as if she was dreaming.

She could not forget the scene when Shen Li took her into the palace at night and offended the queen, nor could she forget the scene when Shen Li grabbed her son and threw him into the casino, and she could not forget the scene when Shen Li forced her and her mother to take medicine and yelled at them.

Such a Shen Li made her afraid. She always thought that she would never be able to defeat Shen Li in this life. Even if she asked the Zhao family to help find a killer, she didn't think she could really kill Shen Li, but even crippling her would be good enough.

The course of events brought an unexpectedly good ending, Shen Li died.

Yao'er and Nanny Zhou had both gone to see it, but she was still worried, so she asked others to pretend to pay their respects and see. The person lying in the coffin was Shen Li, without a doubt.

When they brought the news back, she laughed out loud with joy, and scared Madam Zhou so much that she covered her head with a quilt and made her hide inside and laugh.

It doesn’t matter, she can laugh anywhere, anyway, she won, she won over Shen Li.

Shen Li, the person she hated and feared, died just like that.

This group of killers is well-selected, the best.

Little Zhao was so excited that she danced and walked back and forth in Shen Yao's room, unable to calm down.

Shen Yao cried and made a fuss, and was exposed in public by Banxia and slapped in public by Shen Zhaojiang. She was really too embarrassed to live.

Thinking of the arrogant and cold Second Prince, seeing that she was about to marry him, how would he look upon her if such a scandal were to spread at this time? And how would he look upon her mother?

My mother has also offended the Queen. How can she live a good life in the future? It's impossible to think about it.

Then she thought of the majestic eldest prince. When she heard that the emperor had granted him and Shen Li a marriage, she was almost going crazy with jealousy. Now that Shen Li is dead, it would be great if the emperor could allow sisters to marry in place of her and let her marry the eldest prince in place of Shen Li.

There was a burning pain on her face. The maid applied medicine to her, but she used a little too much force, causing her to hiss in pain and kick the maid to the ground.

Nanny Zhou was busy serving Xiao Zhao and keeping an eye on Shen Yao to prevent her from going crazy. She was so busy that she had no time to rest and was tossing around.

Late at night, no one could sleep.

The sound of chanting outside could be heard from time to time. Shen Zhaojiang ordered Shen Yao and Shen Shaokun to stand guard in front of Shen Li's coffin.

Shen Yao wanted to refuse, but the housekeeper sent by the Prime Minister's Mansion said, "My son-in-law said that if the second young lady doesn't listen, you will be asked to move to the farm tonight and pretend that you don't exist in the Shen family. My second young lady should listen to this old servant's advice and don't make my son-in-law unhappy at this time."

"Why? Why should I go to keep vigil for her? She was so bad that she even killed herself. Why should I give in to her?" Shen Yao was so angry that she spoke without thinking.

"Second Miss, be careful with your words," the housekeeper reminded her hastily. "If this gets to the ears of the son-in-law, you'll be punished again. But listen to this old servant's advice. Even if it's just for show, go ahead. It's only a matter of two or three days, and it will pass if you bear with it. Why not try to earn some favor with the son-in-law and the general?"

The housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion has followed the old Prime Minister all his life and represents the old Prime Minister's face. Officials outside have to give some face to what he says.

Shen Yao, however, didn't care about that and refused to listen to anyone. She kept saying that at worst she could go to the farm to find some peace and quiet, which was better than staying in this mansion and listening to the monks chanting sutras to that little bitch Shen Li.

The old housekeeper shook his head helplessly, but he couldn't really say these words in front of Shen Zhaojiang, so he called Nanny Zhou out and gave her a few words of advice, then went to report to Shen Zhaojiang.

Upon hearing that Shen Yao dared not to keep vigil, Shen Zhaojiang came in a rage. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw the maid boiling medicine in the corridor. When he asked, the maid said that the second young lady had just been scolded by Banxia for a long time and then slapped by the master. After returning, she complained of heart pain and then fainted. Now she has a fever. A doctor was consulted. The doctor said that she was frightened and her soul had not returned to her body. He prescribed a prescription and told her to rest well.

This was the idea proposed by the old housekeeper. At least they could fool Shen Zhaojiang first and avoid causing trouble at this critical juncture.

After all, Shen Zhaojiang was feeling uneasy.

The reason why he cared so much about Shen Li's funeral was because of the words Fang Yao left before he left.

Not to mention whether Fang Yao would force the Shen family to never set foot in the capital, even if his daughter was killed in the street, he, the father of the Dali Temple, could not catch the murderer and had to rely on his daughter's uncle to help his daughter get revenge. He did not dare to neglect his daughter at the funeral again.

Otherwise, if the news gets out, he won't be able to bear the ridicule and spit from others.
