Chapter 100 The law does not punish the public



The carriage did not stop because of the man's rude shout, but continued to move forward slowly while avoiding the man.

Shen Yi had not slept all night, and due to injuries on his body, he was already dizzy and dizzy. When he saw that the carriage did not stop, he suddenly stopped in front of the carriage.

Fortunately, the driver's timely response prevented a serious disaster.

Liusha was almost thrown away due to inertia, and asked with a sullen face: "What's going on? Didn't the princess keep talking?"

The coachman looked at the person blocking the tall horse with bitterness and hatred: "Miss Liusha, my consort, he suddenly rushed under the horse..."

Lenglan curled his lips.

How could this person be so restless?

She did not open the curtain of the car window, but only an indifferent voice came out: "The prince-in-law is not recovering at the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, why did he come here so early in the morning?"

Shen Yizhi's groggy mind became a little clearer when he heard Qingyue's voice. But when he thought of her staying away all night, his clarity was shattered by anger: "Where were you last night?"

He didn't use the honorific, his tone was gloomy, and he had a questioning tone.

"Where do I need to explain to my consort?" Leng Lanzhi found it funny.

"Leng Lanzhi, you're staying up all night!" Shen Yizhi had already walked around to the side of the carriage. He was staring at the motionless curtain of the carriage, his eyes blazing with fire.

"As a wife, shouldn't you give me an explanation for staying overnight?"

Not far away, a carriage drove by. The coachman saw the scene outside the princess's house from a distance, turned his head and said something to the carriage. After a while, the curtain of the carriage was opened.

However, even though he caught a glimpse of the wonders outside the princess's house, that person was not brave enough to watch Princess Jialuo's excitement on the street.

He only respectfully called "Princess" when the carriage passed by, and condescendingly shouted "Consort" to Shen Yizhi, and then asked the coachman to speed up and leave the place where things were wrong.

As they left the princess's mansion behind, the nobles in the carriage faintly heard the charming consort's questioning voice: "Princess, answer me! Why didn't you come home last night?"

Leng Lanzhi was silent for a moment and said calmly: "Let's go in and talk."

Shen Yizhi became more and more sure that she was guilty, so naturally she refused to go in.

He has long recognized that she is no longer the virtuous wife who would love him. Now that he followed her into the princess's mansion, he was really upset every day!

Compared with life and Jiaoer's safety, what is reputation?

It was she who insisted on fighting to the death!

By then, she will definitely suffer more infamy than him.

He didn't want to be like this, it was her who forced him to be cruel.

Through the curtain, Shen Yizhi could hear the voice of the person inside becoming colder: "Husband-in-law, do you have to make a fuss to the point where everyone's faces look bad?"

Shen Yizhi lowered his eyes: "I... don't dare."

The first time he surrendered in front of her, he did not surrender sincerely, but to use it as a bargaining chip to make the people feel more sorry for his weakness.

There seemed to be more pedestrians outside the princess's residence.

Some vegetable farmers who delivered vegetables to the government officials and the servants who were responsible for going out to buy things passed by in twos and threes. The servants in the noble man's house all knew the principle of not seeing what is inappropriate, and understood that there are some lively things that should not be seen, as seeing too much can be fatal.

But ordinary people don't understand this, and they can't help but stop when they see something lively to watch, and it's rare to see the excitement of noble people.

Some people were not satisfied with seeing the excitement. Seeing that the farce here would not end for a while, they actually ran back to hang out with their friends.

Liusha saw the people outside through the gap in the curtain on her side, and couldn't help but frown: "Princess, there are many people outside, so you'd better get in as soon as possible."

These words reached Shen Yizhi's ears. He bent his spine slightly, but did not lose his character. He was neither humble nor arrogant: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing. What is the princess afraid of? The princess hasn't answered me yet. , where did you go last night?"

Shen Yizhi would come over today and use public opinion to make her compromise, which was completely within Leng Lanzhi's expectation.

And this is also part of her plan.

She wanted to take advantage of the public opinion he was best at using to catch him off guard and nail him to the shameful pillar of doting on his concubine and destroying his wife, so that the divorce letter would be justified.

But she didn't expect that he would cling to her staying out at night.

Turning her eyes slightly, she asked, "Where do you think I went last night?"

Her tone was cold, but her expression was not as cold as her tone, with a bit of sadness.

When she was a child, she accidentally obtained a book of basic folk tales, which either described the lingering love between a poor scholar and a rich lady, or the forbidden love between a poor scholar and a beautiful, eccentric, pure fairy.

Every time she sees the hero and heroine overcome all difficulties and dangers and finally reach a happy ending, she will breathe a sigh of relief and smile.

Later, those words in the book were seen by the queen, and she felt guilty and did not dare to look at her mother.

While she was anxiously waiting for her mother to reprimand her, her mother was not angry at her for being contaminated with such vulgar things. She just ordered the people in the royal kitchen to make a plate of steamed buns with a gentle look on her face.

From the hands of the royal chef in the palace, even if it is just the simplest folk food, the royal chef can also make flowers.

First of all, in terms of ingredients, folk steamed buns are mostly made from brown rice flour mixed with bran powder. It is dry and hard in the mouth and needs to be chewed carefully to avoid throat irritation when swallowed.

The steamed buns made in the palace are made from corns brought as tribute from small frontier countries and ground into powder. The texture is similar to brown rice noodles, but it is not as dry as the folk steamed buns and is not as hard to eat. A grassy smell in the throat.

The golden steamed buns are even wrapped with a few red candied dates, which are pleasing in color and sweet in taste.

Leng Lanzhi only ate half of it and didn't want to try again.

Although the steamed buns made by the imperial chef tasted good, with the fragrance of dates and the sweetness of honey, she still didn't like the strange texture and the dryness when it entered her throat.

The queen mother seemed to have expected this, and asked her with a smile: "What should you do if you are asked to eat food that is worse than this nest of bread every day in the future?"

How did she answer...

Time passed so long that she actually forgot her original answer.

But if she had to do it all over again now, she would definitely tell her mother without hesitation that she would no longer pin her future on the illusory "love", let alone ignore her family background and think that she is the most special one.

, you can achieve happiness by abandoning the differences between family backgrounds.

If it were any high-ranking family in Beijing, first of all, he would not stop her carriage in the street and try to use the method of ruining her reputation to save an outhouse.

"I dare not judge where the princess has gone. However, it is only a quarter of an hour's drive from the palace to the princess's residence. The princess did not stay in the palace last night, nor did she return to her residence."

More and more people were watching, and when they saw people starting to gather, many servants from high-ranking families who did not dare to stay because they were worried about being silenced couldn't help but stop.

As the saying goes, the law does not blame everyone.
