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

After Shen Li finished speaking, the old prime minister looked at her in a daze. His heart was like a raging storm, and it seemed as if something was stepping on his vital point, making it almost impossible to breathe.

After a long while, he murmured to himself, "Is this... true?"

Even at this point, the old father still couldn't believe that his daughter had reached such a vicious and vindictive level.

Shen Li said nothing. She walked up to him, took the letter back, folded it in front of him and put it in the envelope. Then she said, "As for whether it is true or not, you already know it in your heart, but you just don't want to believe it. How about this, I will take you to a place, and you will know everything when you go there."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the old prime minister, waiting for his reply.

The old prime minister was like a bag of flesh that had been drained of air. His body was limp and he couldn't even stand up from the chair he was sitting on.

After a while, he supported himself on the table and stood up, and said to Shen Li with a pleading look, "Miss Shen, I am ashamed..."

After saying these two sentences, his voice choked.

When he calmed down, he said to Shen Li, "Killing someone means paying with one's life. This is only natural. Miss Shen, if my daughter really murders someone, I will never protect her."

"Okay," Shen Li was not moved by his promise. After all, the old prime minister had guaranteed the Zhao family many times before. She thought that it would be better not to believe him this time and to listen to his words and observe his actions.

"Where is Miss Shen planning to take me? Tonight? Or some other day?" the old prime minister asked again.

Shen Li glanced at his gray hair and couldn't bear to let him go out in the middle of the night in such a cold weather, so she said, "I'll wait for you tomorrow after court."

The old prime minister raised his head and glanced at her. "Aren't you afraid that I'll send a message tonight to tell them to run for their lives?"

Shen Li laughed when he heard this and said nonchalantly, "I believe the old prime minister would not be so stupid."

Not to mention that the old prime minister couldn't do that, even if he really sent a letter to the Zhao family and let them run away, she, Shen Li, could capture them and kill her enemies in front of Ding Lan's spirit.

Obviously, the old prime minister didn't expect Shen Li to be so nonchalant. His curiosity about Shen Li outweighed his grief for his daughter. He stared at Shen Li intently and suddenly asked, "Miss Shen is visiting you late at night. You must be fearless. Can I ask Miss Shen a question?"

"please say."

"Are you...really Shen Zhaojiang's daughter?"

He looked at Shen Li, but Shen Li didn't answer him.

"Where did you learn all these skills? As far as I know, there is no one with such ability in our Great Zhou Dynasty. As for other countries... I have never heard of them. If they existed, they would have attacked the Great Zhou and other countries long ago. With such skills, I believe no matter who they attacked, they would be invincible and unstoppable. They didn't do it, not out of charity, but because they didn't have it. That means Miss Shen's skills didn't come from a master at all, so where did they get them from?"

"Since this ability has no origin, then Miss Shen... doesn't she also have an origin? Who are you? Shen Zhaojiang couldn't possibly have a daughter like you. It's not that I look down on him, but he can't give birth to such a promising child."

The old prime minister blurted out the questions he had always wanted to ask. His eyes seemed to be able to see through Shen Li, as if he wanted to see through her.

If it were anyone else, seeing this old prime minister, he would have been panicked and his eyes would have flickered.

However, Shen Li did not. After hearing his words, Shen Li suddenly smiled under the gaze of the old prime minister.

The smile was not only bright, but also contained a hint of admiration.

"Old Prime Minister, you really think more than others do," she said. "People have always been talking about my origins, saying all sorts of things. I'm a spy for a certain country, I'm an imposter, and so on. I've heard it so many times that my ears are callused. Old Prime Minister, you don't know. Some people even went to the manor where I grew up to inquire about it. Unfortunately, the results of the inquiries turned out to be that I am Shen Li, the real deal. What can I do? Everyone wishes I wasn't, but I am. I can't deny it even if I want to. I can only disappoint you, Old Prime Minister, and those people."

The old prime minister shook his head and said to her, "I didn't mean to threaten you with this. Miss Shen has misunderstood. I simply wanted to tell you that if you have been wronged by my Great Zhou Dynasty, please, for the sake of your uncle and the Emperor, let my Great Zhou go. After all, with Miss Shen's ability, overthrowing a dynasty is a piece of cake."

In the past few days, news has been coming back from Western Qiang and Northern Di.

It was said that the two sides attacked each other with snow covering their horses' legs, resulting in heavy casualties and severe damage to their vitality. It would take at least thirty to fifty years to recover from the situation.

If the Great Zhou attacked them at this time, it would be easy to capture cities and expand its territory.

For this reason, the Northern Di and Western Qiang were anxious to send people to the Great Zhou for peace talks. In order to contact the Great Zhou to form an alliance with them, the two families were eager to take out their best horses and jewelry and gallop their horses. Now they are on their way.

When the news came, the emperor summoned the old prime minister, Marquis Guanyong, Fang Yao and others to the imperial study to discuss how to receive the two parties. When they were happy, the emperor invited them to taste the bear meat that had been pickled a few days ago.

Everyone was laughing and talking, and the emperor, who hadn't drunk for a long time, also drank two more glasses.

Fortunately, the emperor accidentally let slip during the two glasses of wine, "This bear meat was hunted by the eldest prince's wife when she went to help them with the two parties. This daughter-in-law is very good and very pleasing to me. There is hope for the hegemony of our Great Zhou, hope for the hegemony."

The emperor was drunk, Marquis Guanyong was also drunk, only Fang Yao and the old prime minister were not drunk.

At the beginning, the old prime minister was confused. The eldest prince's wife?

Isn’t it Shen Li?

When did she go to the border?

How many people would it take to accomplish such a big thing? How big a commotion would it have to be?

How come I didn’t hear anything at all?

wrong.

A thought flashed through his mind, and he suddenly remembered that his daughters Xiao Zhao and Kun'er were abducted into the palace and offended the queen, and he understood everything at once.

My daughter said at the time that Shen Li could reach any place she wanted to go in an instant.

Seeing Shen Li single-handedly throw Kun'er towards Yao Xun, and then throw Xiao Zhao into the Queen's bedroom, and even control Xiao Zhao to scold the Queen madly, it is absolutely possible for her to go to the border and add fuel to the fire between the two sides without bringing any troops.

Otherwise, Fang Yao wouldn't have to stare at him. When he looked at her, she warned him not to talk too much or he would get his head chopped off, and then sat beside the emperor's legs pretending to be drunk.

Fang Yao, this cunning guy, is pretending to be drunk. When the emperor asks him tomorrow, he will say that he heard nothing, and the emperor will not be on guard against him.

The old prime minister was so frightened that he pretended to be drunk and was sent back home.
