Shen Li couldn't help but laugh at her in his heart.

Princess Changle really doesn't know her place. She will die of stupidity sooner or later.

Concubine Zhen couldn't stand Princess Changle's ignorance and slapped her: "Shut up!"

Princess Changle not only refused to listen, but felt even more aggrieved. Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at Concubine Zhen: "Mother, why did you hit me? Why did you hit me for such a lowly person? I am your biological daughter! Don't you also hate that lowly Shen Li? What's wrong with me scolding her and hitting her a few times? Are you also deceived by her like your brother?"

The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The palace maids and eunuchs were pale and wanted to cover their ears to show that they didn't hear what was said.

"Yu'er, your sister is still young and she's talking nonsense. Don't argue with her. Mother will discipline her."

Shen Li stood beside Yun Chenyu and felt a cold murderous aura emanating from him.

Zhenfei also felt Yun Chenyu's murderous intent. After all, as a country's god of war, how could she bear to be insulted like this?

At the critical moment, Concubine Zhen said, "Come here, send the princess back quickly!"

When several palace maids heard Zhenfei's order, they rushed to the center of the hall like arrows, grabbed Princess Changle's arm and pulled her out.

"Get out of here!" Princess Changle glared at her like a rabid dog, and slapped one of the palace maids in the face with her backhand. The other palace maids immediately let go like frightened birds.

"Mother, why have you changed so much? You went to great lengths to arrange for Sister Rou to enter Brother Yu's palace just to make her the princess. But now this lowly person has intervened and snatched the title of princess away from you. Have you forgotten?"

Zhen Fei could never have imagined that her daughter would say such words in front of Yun Chenyu.

Her face instantly turned ashen, and she shouted at the palace maids: "Are you all deaf? Drag her away quickly!"

The palace maids were so frightened that they trembled all over and quickly dragged Princess Changle out of the hall.

Shen Li raised her face, and a beam of light shone in from the entrance of the hall and sprinkled on her face.

She looked at Princess Changle who was dragged out of the hall, raised her arm calmly, and with a tremor, her sleeve slipped down to her elbow.

It was unknown how long it took before Zhenfei gradually calmed down from her anger.

She sat back on the high seat and said, "Shen Li, you have been married to Prince Chen for over half a year and are now truly his consort. Do you know what the most important responsibility of being his consort is?"

Shen Li said calmly, "As Prince Chen's consort, it's my natural duty to help Prince Chen manage the backyard so he can fight on the front lines without worries. However, the prince doesn't like me, and has left all the affairs of the palace to Lin Wanrou. I'm really powerless."

Shen Li replied with a smile.

She felt that besides Concubine Zhen, someone else seemed to be watching her, so she looked up and to the side.

Yun Chenyu was looking at her with a half-smile.

Zhenfei sat on a high seat and saw everything that happened in the hall.

"You're right, but only half right." Concubine Zhen suppressed her disgust and said seriously, "As a princess, it's my duty to take care of the backyard, but more importantly, it's to expand the family line for the prince. Now that the dark spots on your face have healed, you should devote yourself to expanding the family line for the prince."

Shen Li was stunned for a moment. She didn't want to have children for Yunchenyu. She even wanted to divorce him!

But, there is no point in telling this to Concubine Zhen now.

She still has to meet the emperor in the future and ask him to agree to her divorce, which is the correct solution.

While Shen Li was stunned, Concubine Zhen continued, "I'll give you another six months. If you still don't get pregnant within six months, I, as the Prince of Chen's mother, will have to find another concubine for him. Yu'er, what do you think?"

Zhen Fei gave Shen Li so much face, she must have her own little plans in mind.

Yun Chenyu is poisoned now. Even if he falls in love with Shen Li and sleeps with Shen Li, Shen Li will not get pregnant.

At that time, she would use the reason that Shen Li had no children within a year to openly give Lin Wanrou to Yun Chenyu as a concubine.

At that time, Lin Wanrou could live in Prince Chen's Mansion openly and monitor Yun Chenyu's every move for her.

Yun Chenyu raised his lips, glanced at Shen Li with a smile, then raised his eyes to Concubine Zhen and said, "I will definitely fulfill my mission and make A Li pregnant within six months."

Shen Li: “…”

Are you kidding me? Didn't we agree to get a divorce?

Concubine Zhen originally disliked Shen Li, and when she heard Yun Chenyu say this, she stopped talking, waved her hand, and said, "I'm not feeling well, you all should go back."

Shen Li and Yun Chenyu left Weiyang Palace.

Along the way, Yun Chenyu stared at Shen Li with a half-smile, which made Shen Li a little confused.

"Your Highness, were you joking just now?" Shen Li thought about it again and again, and finally asked out the question in her heart.

"Huh? What?"

"What I just said to Concubine Zhen..." Shen Li didn't point it out directly, she thought Yun Chenyu could understand.

Yun Chenyu knew what Shen Li was asking, but pretended not to understand and said, "My word is my bond."

Shen Li was a little angry: "Didn't you promise me that you would divorce me?"

She is not the original owner, nor does she love Yun Chenyu. Although Yun Chenyu's figure and appearance do meet her aesthetic standards, she has no feelings for him and she cannot be with him for the rest of her life.

Besides, Yun Chenyu doesn't love her either.

She traveled from the 22nd century and could not accept the ancient arranged marriages that were arranged by parents and matchmakers. She was looking for a man who loved her wholeheartedly and put her first in everything.

"You are not keeping your word." Shen Li said angrily.

Yun Chenyu lowered his eyes, his expression unclear. He only parted his lips slightly, and a magnetic and charming voice rang out: "This prince's words are of course binding. However, have you forgotten your mission in the Prince Chen's Mansion? Do you think your father can easily let you divorce this prince?"

Shen Li felt dizzy.

"Mission? What mission?"

Shen Li suddenly realized that Yun Chenyu was referring to her father Shenyang.

Prime Minister Shenyang agreed to let the original owner marry Yun Chenyu so that the original owner could monitor him. After all, Yun Chenyu held military power and the prince was afraid of him, so he joined forces with Prime Minister Shen to marry Shen Li to Prince Chen's Mansion as a spy.

Shen Li sighed inwardly.

She wants to ask the emperor for permission to divorce, but her adoptive father, Prime Minister Shen, will definitely not agree. Even if the emperor agrees to her request, will the prince forgive her?

There is no need to keep a subordinate who betrays you.

"Whether my father agrees or not is a matter between me and him, so you don't need to worry about it," Shen Li replied. "I'm the master of my own life. If I ever have the chance to see the emperor again, I'll definitely ask for permission to divorce."

Anyway, she can't be with a man who doesn't love her for the rest of her life, nor can she accept being controlled by others for the rest of her life.

Yun Chenyu muttered in his heart: This woman wants to divorce me so much, is she not in cahoots with Prime Minister Shen?

After all, Prime Minister Shen had a clear purpose in marrying her off, which was to have her monitor him.

But after she realized that she couldn't win his heart, she finally woke up and decided to divorce him.

Well, this is interesting...
