Traveling through ancient times, the princess of the special forces became the group's favorite

"Master, it's time for breakfast." Qingluan walked in with a plate.

Shen Li took a look at the rice on the plate, then scooped the rice porridge in the bowl with a spoon. There were only a few grains of rice in the bowl of rice porridge, a plate of pickles, and a steamed bun.

"Qingluan, is Prince Chen's Mansion so poor?"

Based on Shen Li's understanding of ancient court nobles, they all lived a very luxurious life. How could a princess eat steamed buns and pickles?

Qingluan lowered her head and said, "Master, our Prince Chen's Mansion was not poor to begin with. The prince won a lot of military merits in the war, and the emperor also rewarded him with a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. But the war at the front has been intense this past year, and the treasury is empty. The prince has been saving money and has used all the money in the mansion to subsidize the army, so..."

Shen Li was also a member of the army in the 22nd century, so she couldn't help but feel touched when she heard Qingluan's words. "I didn't expect that Yunchenyu would care so much about the world."

"How much silver do we have left?"

"There are only ten taels of silver left." Qingluan said aggrievedly.

What can ten taels of silver do for the wives of officials?

"The princess's monthly allowance is more than ten taels, right? Could it be that the Yunchen Domain is saving money and has reduced my monthly allowance as well?" Shen Li asked in surprise.

"It has been reduced, but the princess's monthly allowance is still fifty taels according to regulations. It's just that it was all deducted by my cousin."

Qingluan glanced at the rice on the plate and said, "Master, every time I go to the kitchen to serve you food, I see that the breakfast prepared by the kitchen for Lin Wanrou is much more sumptuous than this. She cuts down on your expenses and deducts your monthly allowance, while she herself enjoys overwhelming wealth. She is really shameless!"

"What? Cousin?" Shen Li's mind was working rapidly.

She recalled it.

This cousin is Yun Chenyu's cousin, named Lin Wanrou. She came to the Prince Chen's Mansion before Shen Li became the Princess of Chen, and now she is in charge of all the affairs in the Prince Chen's Mansion.

Shen Li suddenly became furious. To what extent had the original owner flattered Yun Chenyu? A dignified princess couldn't even take charge of the household affairs in the mansion. What was the point of being a princess?

"Master, Miss Cousin relies on the fact that she is the prince's cousin and the niece of Concubine Zhen, so she dares to act tyrannically in the mansion and ignores you."

"What about my dowry? Didn't she also embezzle it?"

Shen Li felt that her dowry was probably gone.

Qingluan nodded: "Yes, she also "borrowed" your dowry for various reasons, and she hasn't returned any of it yet."

"Borrow? Humph, this is blatant robbery!"

"Master, some of the shops in your dowry were also taken away by your cousin in the name of raising military funds for the prince."

Shen Li frowned: "Lin Wanrou, you don't behave like a good cousin, but you dare to put your hand on my head. I will make you spit out whatever you have eaten!"

"Let's go! Take the account book and IOU and ask Lin Wanrou for the dowry!" Shen Li waved his hand to signal Qingluan to follow.

Qingluan found the account book and IOU and was about to follow when she heard Shen Li order: "Bring this plate of pickled vegetables and porridge together."

Qingluan didn't understand what he meant. Seeing that Shen Li had already walked out, she didn't ask any more questions and trotted after him with the plate in her hand.

At the same time, Ziyin Pavilion.

Lin Wanrou was leisurely drinking blood bird's nest porridge. There were a few side dishes on the table and a boiled egg in the bowl.

"My dear cousin, the servants have come to report that the princess drugged the prince last night and, after being discovered, she hanged herself." Lin Wanrou's maid, Hongyu, squinted her eyes and smirked as she continued, "She's really lucky to have survived."

Lin Wanrou took a sip of the blood bird's nest porridge and said disdainfully: "She has a tough life. I heard from the elders that women with such a tough life are prone to bring bad luck to their husbands. She is now a princess, so she must not bring bad luck to the prince..."

"Please don't worry, cousin. I bought some medicine from the black market. It's the kind that kills instantly when it comes into contact with blood. When the time comes, I'll say that she tried to hang herself but failed, so she drank poison. No one will disbelieve it." Hongyu said with a sinister smile.

"Okay, then let's go to Danxue Pavilion after dinner. I want to visit the princess..."

"No need, I'm fine!" Shen Li pushed the door open and walked in domineeringly.

"Why... are you here?" Lin Wanrou stood up from her chair in surprise.

How much of their conversation just now did she hear?

But then she thought, even if she heard it, what would it matter? She was just a despised princess, her status was not even as high as a servant. Even if she went to the prince to complain, he would not believe her.

"Why didn't you knock before you came in? How rude!" Hongyu accused Shen Li angrily.

"Knocking on the door? I am the princess of Prince Chen's Mansion. Is there any place in Prince Chen's Mansion that I cannot go to? Do I need your permission to come to the residence of your cousin?" Shen Li asked back in a stern voice.

"Bah! What princess? Our cousin is the future mistress of Prince Chen's mansion, the future princess of Prince Chen! You are just a despised fool, how dare you be rude to our cousin?"

Hongyu used to rely on Lin Wanrou being the head of the household to give Shen Li the nod and even dared to disobey Shen Li. Before, Shen Li devoted himself to Yun Chenyu and was too indulgent to these servants. Today, let her, Shen Li who traveled from another world, teach this dog slave a lesson and let her know the difference between respect and inferiority!

"How dare you, a slut, disrespect your master? Qingluan, slap her in the face!" Shen Li ordered.

"Yes!" Qingluan put the plate on the table and raised her hand to slap the left half of Hongyu's face.

"You... you dare to hit me?"

"I'm going to hit you, a disrespectful and disrespectful slave girl!" Shen Li raised his head and said disdainfully, "Qingluan was too gentle just now, let me do it myself~"

After saying that, there was a crisp "slap" sound, and Hongyu was slapped hard on the left cheek.

"Ah..." With a shrill scream, Hongyu's left cheek swelled up instantly, and there were several bright red palm prints on her face.

"Oh my... It's really ugly! I don't have any other problems, but I have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. How can the two sides of your face be different? How about this, I'll give you two more slaps on the right side!" Shen Li chuckled, her words full of playful intent. After that, she raised her left hand without hesitation and slapped Hongyu's right cheek hard.

"Ah..." Hongyu felt pain and couldn't help but scream again.

At this moment, her face had swollen into a big pig's head.

However, this did not stop Shen Li from moving. She continued to thrash, muttering to herself, "Hmm, still asymmetrical, one more time..."

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah……"

For a moment, the whole room was filled with the sound of crisp slaps and Hongyu's miserable cries.

Suddenly, Hongyu felt as if something in her mouth had hit her tongue. She subconsciously spit it out in her hand, and when she looked closely, she was immediately frightened - it turned out to be one of her teeth!

She was so scared that she threw it out and it landed directly at Lin Wanrou's feet.

Lin Wanrou widened her eyes and took several steps back.

After she stood firm, she looked at Shen Li in front of her, and a strong sense of doubt and shock surged in her heart.

Is this still the same Shen Li I knew before? Why does it feel like a completely different person?

In the past, Shen Li was just an image of a shallow, infatuated fool, but now, she is so capable?

How could a person's character change so drastically in a short period of time?

Lin Wanrou thought it was outrageous, but she couldn't lose in momentum.

"You...you have to consider the owner even if you beat a dog, right? I am the prince's cousin and the niece of Concubine Zhen in the palace. You have to consider the Buddha's face even if you don't consider the monk's face!"

Lin Wanrou forced herself to remain calm and shouted in a timid tone.
