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

When Yun Chenyu heard the words "Princess personally appointed by the emperor", huge sparks suddenly appeared in his heart.

"That's enough! Wanrou is now the head of the household. Don't go too far. If you have nothing else to do, return to your own courtyard immediately! From now on, your monthly allowance and other benefits will be given to you according to the standards of a princess!"

His voice came coldly, filled with disgust, and he just wanted to end this farce as soon as possible.

"I have other things to do."

"What else?" Yun Chenyu asked impatiently.

Shen Li put his hands on his hips and said, "I came to ask Lin Wanrou for my dowry!"

Although Shen Li was the Prime Minister's adopted daughter, she brought a lot of dowry when she got married, and the dowry did not bring shame to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lin Wanrou's eyelids twitched, and she secretly thought something was wrong, but she pretended to be calm on the surface. "Cousin, where do you get that from? When did I take your dowry?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Qingluan, bring the account book and read it to them one by one!" Shen Li glared at Lin Wanrou with a sharp gaze like a knife.

I knew this woman would deny it.

The original owner was stupid and "lent" all her dowry to Lin Wanrou, but fortunately she was not so stupid that she was beyond redemption. She recorded every dowry that Lin Wanrou borrowed.

"Yes, master."

Qingluan opened the account book and started reading out each entry from the beginning.

Her voice was loud and clear. It had been a long time since she had done anything so happily. Now she felt very relaxed both physically and mentally.

Shen Li pulled a chair and sat down, crossed his legs, and grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the table and started eating them while listening.

"Ten rolls of antique fragrant satin, loaned out on the second day of the third month of the seventy-fifth year of Yunyan.

Two red agate necklaces, loaned on March 8, 1976.

Three pairs of jade bracelets, loan date: March 18, 1976.

A rouge shop in the west of the city, sold on March 25, the 75th year of Yunyan, for 666 taels of silver.

......"

Lin Wanrou broke out in a cold sweat as she listened to the expenditures one by one.

Glancing at the sweaty Lin Wanrou, Yun Chenyu looked at Shen Li with a deep gaze: "These are just your dowry. Even though there are loan and sale dates, how can you prove that it was Wanrou who borrowed them?"

Shen Li knew they wouldn't cry until they saw the coffin, so he raised his hand and ordered Qing Luan: "Bring out the IOU and show it to the prince!"

"Yes."

Qingluan stopped talking and took out a stack of IOUs from under the account book and handed them to Yun Chenyu.

Yun Chenyu flipped through the pages one by one. Some of the signatures on the IOUs were Lin Wanrou's and some were Hongyu's.

Lin Wanrou could no longer stand steadily at this moment. She had originally thought that Shen Li was just a soft persimmon and the prince didn't like her, so she didn't dare to take out the IOU no matter what. Unexpectedly, she actually took out all the IOUs they had signed.

"No...cousin...this is fake! She must have framed me..." Lin Wanrou pointed at Shen Li and looked at Yun Chenyu with tears in her eyes, hoping that Yun Chenyu could believe her.

Yun Chenyu was very familiar with Lin Wanrou's handwriting. Even if he hated Shen Li, he could not defend Lin Wanrou anymore with the irrefutable evidence before him.

"How is it, Your Highness? No doubt. Just ask your cousin to return the dowry to me. I'm still waiting to use it!"

"What do you want to do with it?" A hint of doubt appeared in Yun Chenyu's eyes.

What the hell is this woman up to?

"Don't worry about what I'm going to do with it, Your Highness. This was originally my dowry. Do I have to explain what it's going to be used for when I come back?" Shen Li finished eating a handful of melon seeds, stood up, clapped his hands, and replied lightly.

Yun Chenyu's face turned pale and blue after being confronted: "Shen Li, in just a few days you have really impressed me!"

After saying that, he glared at Lin Wanrou: "Give her dowry back and stop embarrassing yourself!"

Go back?

Lin Wanrou trembled.

All the dowry she received from Shen Li was sent to the palace to honor her aunt, Concubine Zhen!

Thinking that she couldn't get the dowry back and didn't know how to explain to Yun Chenyu, she tilted her body, closed her eyes, and fainted.

Yun Chenyu quickly ordered Hongyu and several maids at the door to carry Lin Wanrou to the bed and call the doctor.

After settling Lin Wanrou, Yun Chenyu frowned and glanced at Shen Li coldly.

Shen Li stood by the window, the sunlight outside shone on her face. Although she was wearing a veil, there was a smug smile in her eyes.

"Are you feeling so proud now? You won't stop until this palace is in turmoil!" He roared with his eyes wide open, looking as if he wanted to eat someone.

"It's only natural to pay back debts. Is it wrong for me to ask for compensation for her taking my dowry?" Shen Li replied loudly, unwilling to be outdone.

Yun Chenyu rubbed his brows, perhaps feeling that he was in the wrong, and his tone dropped. "I'll return your dowry to you when Wanrou wakes up! Go back to your courtyard and stay there. If you cause any more trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

You stinky man! You're so disrespectful. The original owner has been married to you for so long, and you've shown her any mercy?

"You'd better do what you say." Shen Li snorted coldly and turned away with Qingluan.

After returning to the courtyard, Shen Li asked Qingluan to keep the account book and IOU.

Although Yun Chenyu agreed to return the dowry, given Lin Wanrou's personality, she would definitely not spit out the dowry she had eaten so easily.

"Master, what should we do next?" Qingluan was very worried. She also knew that Lin Wanrou would not return the dowry so easily. If she pretended to be unconscious today, who knows what tricks she would come up with to deal with her master tomorrow.

Shen Li smiled and rubbed Qingluan's head: "Do we have men's clothing in our courtyard?"

Qingluan was confused by the question and shook her head: "No."

But after a moment, she looked at Shen Li with wide eyes, and her voice was filled with excitement: "If the master needs it, I can borrow one from the boy outside."

Shen Li pursed his lips and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it, no need, let's talk about it after I leave the house."

"Master is leaving the house?" Qingluan was shocked.

Shen Li raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly, "What's the big deal? I'm just looking for ways to make money outside the house."

After the divorce, she couldn't always rely on her Prime Minister father for support, right? Besides, she wanted to see the beautiful ancient landscape, and she wouldn't feel at ease without some money!

"This servant is willing to go out with the master."

"You'd better not go out with me, little girl. Stay in the mansion. If Lin Wanrou wakes up and comes to give her dowry, it will be easier for you to count it!" Shen Li touched Qingluan's head, his tone unyielding.

Qingluan bit her lip and said with red eyes: "But I am worried. What if the master is in danger? I must protect the master!" Her voice was filled with tears, as if she was about to cry in the next second.

Shen Li's heart softened, and she sighed, "What a loyal girl. But I'm just going out to go shopping and see how to make money. There won't be any danger, so don't worry, little girl!" After that, she smiled and scratched Qingluan's nose, teasing, "I'll bring you something delicious when I come back!"

Qing Luan finally smiled and nodded, "Okay, Master, be careful!"
