Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 172 Father and Daughter Meeting
"My minister sees the concubine Li."

In front of the hall was a man in a green-brown brocade suit. He raised his hands and placed them in front of him for a salute. His face was somewhat similar to Shen Jingche's. His resolute face carried some maturity that belonged to his age. His whole body looked a little bit Gentle.

It's not that she said that this good looks inevitably made her think of the reason why some girls like uncles.

She thought the original owner's father would be an old man, but she was quite young and an uncle.

And this person is very familiar, it seems to be one of the ones she pissed off at the banquet a few days ago?
Shen Xi raised her eyebrows, raised a smile, and calmly ran up to him, and took his hands clasped in salute.

"Don't be too polite."

Shen Taoye smiled slightly, his lowered eyes were strange.

"A humble minister is a minister, how can you break the rules."

She glared at him pretending to be angry, and said coquettishly, "Father, there are no outsiders here, so don't disturb your daughter."

Only then did Shen Taoye raise his head to look at her, the heavy eyelids and the prying eyes in his pupils were self-evident.

Shen Xi was at a loss, feeling a little hairy under his stare.

Just as he was about to speak, the man in front of him snorted softly, turned around and sat down on the chair beside him.

He completely lost the demeanor that he said when he came in just now.

Shen Xi couldn't figure it out, pursed her lips a little speechlessly, looked at the position above, and followed him to sit by the side of the table after hesitation.

Shen Taoye squinted at her, looked her up and down, and said in a deep voice, "How are you doing in the palace recently?"

"pretty good."

For some reason, Shen Xi always felt nervous when facing him, as long as his eyes fell on her, it seemed that he could penetrate her soul.

Shen Taoye was not an easy character to be able to fight against Rong Jinli in court.

In the hearts of the common people, he has always been a hopeful man with a lot of love and respect. When he was young, he led troops to fight. He was invincible on the battlefield, and he was even like a brother with the late emperor.

Later, he handed over the military power to the first emperor and took the initiative to resign.

The first emperor was naturally unwilling to let such talents go, thinking that if you don't like to be a general, then you should be a "leisure" official.

One letter seals the prime minister, involving many suits, and those tedious affairs pile up all day long.

It was even more troublesome than being on the battlefield. Even if Shen Taoye regretted it, he couldn't take back what the late emperor said.

After the late emperor passed away, he handed over the affairs of state to Shen Taoye, and asked him to assist Rong Jinli in succeeding to the throne, clear up obstacles, and handle all follow-up matters.

But she never thought that Rong Jinli was a wolf and hated being controlled by others the most.

In the book, the Shen family has always disliked Rong Jinli and did not explain the reason.

However, he still reluctantly assisted him, but it was based on the order of the first emperor.

If it wasn't for the fact that the original owner was blinded by love and was willing to be used by Rong Jinli to coerce the Shen family, it would have led to the Shen family pleading guilty to treason and beheading all the families in order to save her life.

Shen Taoye frowned slightly, "What are you thinking about?"

Interrupting Shen Xi's blind thoughts, he let out a soft ah, and subconsciously glanced.

"No."

Shen Xi smiled mischievously, and quickly denied it.

Shen Taoye didn't expose her, he paused, thought of something, and sneered, "I thought you planned to hide from your father and me for the rest of your life."

"How could it be? Daddy is my dearest person."

Shen Xi has never gotten along with her family, only when she was filming, she recited her lines and acted in a play, and suddenly it came true, her heart was complicated and nervous, and she could only use a blunt tone.
