Princess Menglang is hard to change, the whole capital is embarrassed for her
Chapter 393 Following in the Footsteps of Our Predecessors
Outside the general's mansion.
A carriage was parked opposite the gate. It was very thickly and tightly packed, and the interior was very spacious with a charcoal stove.
Even though the north wind howls outside, it is warm as spring inside.
Xiao Chenze sat in the corner with his eyes closed, his hands shaking.
Xu Yang thought the charcoal stove was too cold, so he quickly took out a new cloak from the spare box in the carriage and put it on him.
Xiao Chenze suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Xu Yang. After a while, he seemed to recognize him and waved his hand to let him leave.
Lang Qing lay at his feet. When there was no one else in the carriage, Xiao Chenze touched Lang Qing's head and said, "Come closer. I have something to ask you."
Sure enough, Lang Qing stood up, walked in front of him, and put his ear close to him.
"Let me ask you, when you smelled the scent, the person lying on the ground wasn't Miss Shen, right?"
He looked at Lang Qing nervously, his hands clenched tightly together, his palms full of sweat.
The wolf cub nodded in agreement.
His heart was about to burst out.
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and asked in a trembling voice, "The person who was burned to death was not Miss Shen, right?"
The wolfhound hummed twice.
The master is so nagging. He has already said no, but he still asks.
The man smelled like a corpse, and it was quite sour, just like the beggars on the street he had come into contact with. I don't know how many days he had been dead.
Miss Shen is not that kind of person.
Even if it is burnt beyond recognition, it is still easy to distinguish whether the bones and flesh emit a fresh fragrance or a sour smell.
Humans don’t understand this. If only Miss Shen were here, she would definitely understand if she could tell her about it.
Seeing Lang Qing's response, Xiao Chenze covered his chest and suddenly began to breathe heavily.
When Xu Yang heard the noise, he thought that the boy was too sad to bear it, so he quickly lifted the curtain and looked in, but was glared at by the boy and sent away.
Xiao Chenze closed his eyes and forced himself to calm down.
When he was in the plum forest of Guanyonghou's mansion, he lowered his head in sorrow and accidentally saw the big black mastiff walk up to the corpse of "Shen Li", sniff it, and then walk away indifferently.
He felt numb for a moment, and then his eyebrows suddenly moved and his heart began to beat wildly.
But he didn't dare to confirm, so he squatted down and told the wolfhound when it got closer to go over and smell whether the person lying there was Shen Li.
The answer had been hanging in the air until this moment, when he finally settled down.
He believed Lang Qing's reaction and knew that Shen Li was definitely not dead.
At this moment, many fragments flashed through his mind.
When he and Shen Li were standing in the corner of Merlin, Shen Li said that life and death depended on Chu Qianxue's decision, and she allowed Chu Qianxue to stay for the banquet to give her a chance to choose.
After he finished talking to Shen Li, Shen Li looked back before leaving and said, "I'm leaving, goodbye."
Now thinking back carefully, it turns out that Shen Li had a specific intention at that time.
It turned out that when Chu Qianxue wanted to kill her for the first time, everyone from the Queen Mother to the Emperor, and even him, were trying to persuade Shen Li to forgive Chu Qianxue, but Shen Li gave up on them.
She used her "death" to seek justice for herself!
"Let's go." Xiao Chenze ordered.
Xu Yang jumped off the shaft and followed the carriage, escorting his master away.
The gatekeeper of the General's Mansion watched Xiao Chenze's carriage go away with a cold look, and said to a servant, "Go in and tell the general that the eldest prince has left."
The servant responded and went to the second gate to pass the message to Gumu.
Layer after layer.
By the time the message was delivered, Fang Yao and the others had already discussed what to do next. So they said to Zhou Yi, who came in to deliver the message, "Hurry up and take the people to build the mourning tent..."
Shen Li's funeral was proceeding in an orderly manner.
The door to the eldest prince's mansion was closed.
Xiao Chenze was lying in bed and hadn't eaten for two days.
Xu Yang had no choice but to secretly send someone to the palace to inform the empress dowager and the emperor. The empress dowager was very worried when she heard it and immediately wanted to leave the palace to visit him.
But when she realized that there were many troubles when leaving the palace, she suddenly thought of Shen Li mobilizing forces to take her to the Guanyong Marquis' Mansion and then to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, just to make her happy, and the empress dowager's tears fell.
"There will never be such a child again, never again!"
......
Censor Cui had originally taken his daughter's poisonous insects to the Chu family, but then heard that Madam Chu had personally killed her daughter-in-law. Thinking it was wrong to vent his anger on the Madam, he then took the insects to the eldest prince's residence. Then, he heard that the eldest prince had personally stabbed Chu Qianxue to death, so it seemed wrong to let the poisonous insects bite him either.
He had no choice but to stand alone at the gate of the prince's mansion for a long time, touched the bottle of poisonous insects in his arms, and suddenly burst into tears.
When the news reached the general's mansion, Fang Yao hurriedly sent people to persuade him to go home.
He cried and cursed all the way.
As he passed by, people were speculating about what big thing had happened. When they heard the words he cursed, they pieced them together and clearly understood all the reasons behind the incident.
So the people who had received free medicine from Shen Li, the scholars who benefited from the bookstore opened by Shen Li, and even the merchants and the military camps, all called for Shen Li's life.
When Old Madam Chu heard the news, she was once again glad that she did not show favoritism this time, otherwise the spitting outside would have drowned the Chu family long ago.
Shen Li originally wanted to find an opportunity to let her uncle know that she was not dead, but she was spotted by the big black mastiff just as she arrived above the general's mansion.
The big black mastiff kept barking at the sky, and no matter who came over to scold it, it was of no use.
"I knew you weren't dead. Those idiots didn't even bother to smell if it was you. They worried me to death. Oh, and the general isn't an idiot. He guessed you were still alive and told your family to pretend they didn't know. I'm not saying this, but he's really cunning."
Shen Li quietly landed beside it and whispered in its ear, "You kid, it's worth raising you. In this case, I won't show myself for now. I have to leave here for a while."
Woof woof woof.
"Where are you going? Can you take me with you?"
The big black mastiff barked even more anxiously.
"Keep your voice down. Do you want to attract everyone?"
Woof woof woof.
"Okay, I'll keep my voice down. Master, will you take me with you? I can protect you."
"You knew where I was going so you would protect me?"
"Anywhere."
"No need," Shen Li glanced at the mourning tent. "The place I'm going to is very special. If you go with me, not only will you not be able to help, you might even cause more trouble. Just stay here and protect them. We'll talk when I come back."
Woof woof, woof woof.
The big black mastiff's proud head suddenly drooped, its eyes filled with grievance and reluctance, "Master, will you come back?"
Shen Li smiled and said softly, "Yes, don't worry."
After talking to the big black mastiff, she urged the space to rise, took one last look at her uncle's house, and turned to the north.
She is going to Beidi.
The story of the time-traveling predecessor that Miergan told has always been in her mind. It’s time to go and find out for herself.
