After the divorce, the queen mother was pampered by powerful ministers

Chapter 244 Insatiable Greed
"If the little emperor wants to kill Zhu Langshuo, he can search and arrest him directly. There is no need to use killers, but to do it secretly." She was still puzzled by this point at the time.The young girl assassinated Zhu Langshuo, the father-in-law's veil was almost lifted, and there was another news from the palace that the little emperor happened to be checking on his father-in-law, so he naturally thought it was the little emperor's person.

I didn't expect it to be Shen Shengge's person.

In that case, Shen Shengge belongs to the little emperor!
"Interesting." The notorious Shen Shengge turned out to be the little emperor's confidant, and he hid it deep enough.

If it wasn't for the news from the man in the palace, she might never have thought of this.

"For so many years, she has been hiding her true strength. What stupidity, arrogance, domineering, and self-willedness are all blindfolds to hide her true identity."

"She is clinging to her father-in-law and Zhu Langshuo, so she is really afraid that she will find out something."

"What is the master going to do next?" the man in black asked respectfully.

"I heard that Shen Shengge's mother-in-law and sister-in-law don't like her." Song Wan'er said lightly.

"It's not just that I don't like it, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, it's just that I hate it."

"The ancients said: If the house is in trouble, the family will surely go into ruin. If someone keeps making trouble for Shen Shengge, she will have no time to care about other things."

"After all, you are already married and living under someone else's roof. How can you not bow your head?" Her thin lips were slightly raised, and her smile was deep.

Shen Mengli is doing her makeup in front of the mirror, counting the time, that Matchmaker Liu has already left the city at this moment, sending her away is a troublesome matter.

No one can tarnish the good reputation she has worked so hard to maintain. She, Shen Mengli, is still the second young lady of the Shen family who is gentle and generous, knowledgeable in books and courtesies, and proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.She is the woman with the best reputation in the imperial capital and the best match for the ghost general.

The corners of the fox's eyes raised slightly, looking at the delicate face in the bronze mirror, Shen Mengli smiled triumphantly. With his face, which is more beautiful than Shen Shengge, as long as he appears in front of him more often, he will definitely be attracted by him. attract.

Xilu came in from the door with a panicked expression, "Miss..."

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, Shen Mengli said softly to the maid in the room: "You all go out."

After all the maids had left, Xi Lu frowned and said worriedly: "The servant gave all the bank notes to Matchmaker Liu as instructed, and not long after she personally sent her out of the city, she came back again and said that before leaving, she would see Miss again. I have something important to tell the lady personally."

A cold light flashed in Shen Mengli's sly fox eyes, "Where is she?"

"At this moment, I am in the remote courtyard arranged for her by Miss."

As the sun sets and night falls, in a remote small courtyard, Matchmaker Liu hesitates in the courtyard.

"Karma—" The piercing sound of opening the door came from the direction of the door, and the anxiety on Matchmaker Liu's face disappeared instantly, and joy filled her eyes.

The corner of her mouth curled up in satisfaction.Second Miss Shen, who has always regarded her reputation as her destiny, has indeed come.But who knows, she is gentle and kind on the surface, but behind the scenes she has done some shameless little tricks, jealous of her sister's marriage to a good husband, and deliberately doing bad things, so that she can take advantage of it.deserve it.

Shen Mengli's face was cold, completely lacking in his usual gentleness, his eyes were full of indifference and disgust, "Matchmaker Liu, why don't you leave?"

Matchmaker Liu's face was wrinkled when she laughed, showing embarrassment, "Second Miss Shen, you must trust me."

"I had already left the city, but I didn't know that not long after I left the city, my baggage and bank notes were stolen." Liu Matchmaker hesitated, "If I report to the officials, the government will definitely investigate the source of my 2000 taels of silver notes."

"For the sake of Second Miss Shen's reputation, I dare not disturb the government. But the money was stolen, so I can only look for Second Miss Shen with a thick face."

"I'm thinking about your reputation, Miss Shen Er, otherwise I can report to the government and ask the government to help me catch that nasty thief."

A cold light flashed in Shen Mengli's sly fox eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled coldly, "So, I still need to thank Matchmaker Liu for thinking about me?"

Matchmaker Liu smiled flatteringly, "It's not necessary to thank you, it's my blessing to keep the secret for Second Miss Shen."

Shen Mengli snorted coldly, "Tell me, how much do you want this time?" Shen Mengli didn't care at all whether Liu Matchmaker was really stolen, she finally understood that this person is greedy, and the lion will never be able to fill his mouth. .

But right now, she has to take her good reputation into consideration, and she can't let Matchmaker Liu tarnish her reputation, so she can only stabilize Matchmaker Liu first.

Matchmaker Liu smiled triumphantly, stretched out her index finger, and made a "one".

"What? You still want 1000 taels?" She was desperate and in debt, where could she find 1000 taels?The money owed to the underground bank last time has not yet been repaid. If Zhou Lingli can accompany her to borrow money again, will they borrow it?

Shen Mengli was in trouble, thinking about where to raise money.

"It's not 1000 taels." Matchmaker Liu smiled proudly, "I've thought about it, Second Miss Shen has a very good reputation in the imperial capital. With her good reputation and your stunning appearance, even if you marry into the palace as a concubine, it is more than enough."

"So, why is Second Miss Shen's good reputation worth 1000 taels? Isn't this looking down on you?"

"1 million taels."

"As long as Second Miss Shen gives me another 1 taels, I guarantee that not only will I disappear in the imperial capital, but I will also disappear in Qingyuan Kingdom, so that you will never see me again. Only 1 taels."

"Second Miss Shen is the daughter of the prime minister's mansion, so she can't even afford 1 taels?"

"1 taels!" Shen Mengli squeezed the brocade handkerchief in his sleeve tightly, suppressing the anger in his heart, his face was a little ferocious.It really is an insatiable old fox!
"Aren't you afraid of taking life if you don't have life?"

"My old lady, my life is at stake!" Matchmaker Liu smiled flatteringly, "Three days, I only give you three days." Time can't be given to her for too long, lest she go back on her word.

"If you don't come up with the 1 taels of silver bill after three days, I, Matchmaker Liu, will have no choice but to make public the shady things you did, Miss Shen, on the day your sister got married."

"Miss Shen Er should know that my Liu matchmaker is the most powerful with her mouth."

"It won't be long before everyone in the world knows what the second Miss Shen, who has a great reputation, really is like?"

When Shen Mengli heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Okay, I promise you."

"Three days later, the 1 taels of bank notes will be delivered."

"It's a deal, I'll be wronged here for a few days." Matchmaker Liu smiled triumphantly, "By the way, Second Miss Shen must ensure my safety for the next few days. Before I get the money, in case There is something wrong, Miss Shen's secret will spread throughout the streets and alleys of the imperial capital overnight."

Shen Mengli's cunning fox eyes flashed with killing intent, he opened the door and left angrily.

Matchmaker Liu looked at the back of Shen Mengli leaving angrily, wiped the mole on the corner of her mouth, and said proudly, "Little girl, playing tricks with my old lady, you are still a little tender."
