My host is lazy again

Chapter 300
Most people in the palace were not afraid of the queen mother and the emperor, but they were very afraid of Shen Muli.

Prime Minister Shen's reputation spread far and wide. In the past, he had occasionally heard of which Lord Prime Minister killed the Minister of the Book yesterday, and which mansion was sealed up today...

Having never seen it with their own eyes, many people did not believe that the noble and handsome Prime Minister could be so cruel at first, but half a year ago, the palace people unfortunately witnessed his methods with their own eyes.

That day, a palace maid who prided herself on her beauty and did not know the heights of heaven and earth took advantage of the prime minister's visit to the court and led him into the back garden in an attempt to seduce him.But he didn't succeed, and instead cost his own life.

At that time, the prime minister dealt with the maid directly in the palace in front of all the palace servants.

All the palace people who were forced to watch were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

Afterwards, the prime minister who was impeached by many courtiers was fine, which is enough to prove what a terrible person he is.This fear is not only reflected in his ruthless means, but also in the power he controls.

So, after catching up with him and the empress dowager again and again, Xiao Tao was really afraid that one day she would be silently silenced.

After finishing her own work in fear and coming out, she covered her chest and let out a deep breath to calm her heartbeat.

Ah, come out alive.

Thinking back, she attributed the reason to the prime minister's good mood.

But then she discovered something
——The prime minister and the empress dowager are having trouble!

So, the Prime Minister seems to be in a bad mood again...

To be precise, it should be the empress dowager's unilateral cold war, especially in the process of supervising the emperor's study.

The prime minister peeled peanuts for the empress dowager. The empress gave him a blank look, then turned to answer the little emperor's questions.

This kind of differential treatment was too obvious, and Xiaotao was so angry that she didn't dare to show it.

Xiao Tao is very timid, Xiao Tao dare not speak, Xiao Tao took the opportunity to slip out of the hall.

Inside the hall.

Shen Muli stood up, placed the peeled peanuts in front of the little girl who deliberately ignored him, and curled her lips helplessly, "Queen Mother, are you still angry with me?"

Luo Jian raised her chin lightly, pretending not to hear.

Mo Zhao looked at her, then looked up at Prime Minister Shen, who was exceptionally gentle today. Sensing the inexplicable intimacy between the two, he tilted his head in confusion.

For some reason, he felt a little unhappy.

Reaching out to grab the sleeve of the woman beside him, he shook it coquettishly, "Mother."

Luo Jian looked down at him.

The little emperor pointed to a line of words on the book in front of him, and his voice was milky: "Mother, what does the phrase 'a gentleman should not be underestimated... small knowledge can be greatly accepted, villain should not be greatly accepted...but small knowledge can be understood' mean? ?”

"Oh, this..."

She was about to explain to him, but someone in front of her interrupted: "Your Majesty, it's time for martial arts training."

Mo Zhao blinked in confusion, "But I remember, there is still half an hour."

It is true that there is still half an hour left, but Shen Muli is getting more and more displeased with him now.

Glancing at his hand grabbing the little empress dowager's robe, he narrowed his eyes and said thoughtfully: "If the emperor doesn't want to go, I can ask General Fei to cancel this course."

Mo Zhao was in a hurry, and immediately stood up supporting his small body, "Who said I don't want to go!"

Afraid that this scoundrel would really cancel the martial arts classes, he reluctantly spoke to his mother and ran toward the palace on his short legs.

For a while, Luo Jian and Shen Muli were left in the hall.

Every time she was alone with him, Luo Jian had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, relying on the fact that there was no one around, Shen Muli directly lifted his robe and sat beside her, and then stopped her who was about to get up and run away.

There was a force on her waist that pushed her backwards, and the next second, she fell on his lap. The other man leaned forward to hug her, and placed his chin on her shoulder in a familiar manner.

Luo Jian: "..."

She kicked her feet that couldn't touch the ground in dissatisfaction.

Shen Muli chuckled lightly, his eyebrows stretched.

After sneaking a kiss on her face, his voice was low and hoarse: "Jian Jian, don't be angry", and he came up with an idea: "Why don't you stab me again?"

Also, dare, mention!

Luo Jian pursed her lips and turned to glare at him.

Even if they stare at people, they are soft and non-threatening.

Seeing that she was finally willing to look at him, Shen Muli couldn't hold back and kissed her on the lips. Then before the little kitten in his arms started to flutter, he spoke first: "There will be a banquet held in the Duke's Mansion in a few days. .”

"Huh?" The little queen dowager's attention was indeed attracted, "What banquet?"

"The old man's [-]th birthday", Shen Muli lowered his eyes, shook her hand to play with his heart, and said casually, "They probably will send the invitation to the palace, are you going?"

Luo Jian pursed her red lips.

The old man, that is, her current grandfather.

Before, people from Zhen Guogong's mansion had entered the palace several times to ask for an interview, but she refused them all for various reasons.

She blinked her eyes and thought for a while, looked at Shen Muli, and asked softly: "Did those assassins really be sent by the Zhen Guo Gongfu on the night of the night market cruise?"

"You do not believe?"

"It's not that I don't believe it," she sighed melancholy, "I just think it's boring for you to fight and assassinate like this."

"It's really boring." Shen Muli raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "If I remove the Duke's mansion, will the Queen Mother feel distressed?"

Luo Jian shook his head honestly, "No."

The original owner was the concubine of the Duke's palace. Her mother passed away early, and she was helpless in the palace. Even the servants could beat and scold her at will, and secretly deducted food and money from her.

If it weren't for her mother's dowry, she would have starved to death long ago.

Her father, the Duke of Zhenguo, had never cared about this kind of thing.There were many young ladies in the mansion. If he hadn't had to test the horoscopes of every young lady in the mansion at that time, he might not have even remembered that he had a daughter like her.

The original owner never thought about entering the palace, her only wish was to spend her life in peace.

As a result, after knowing that her horoscope matches the emperor's horoscope, Duke Zhen handed her horoscope to the old emperor's desk regardless of her wishes, and forcibly sent her into the palace as a pawn.

She didn't even have the right to resist or the chance to choose, so she entered the palace in a daze and became the emperor's concubine.

Luo Jian could feel the resentment and unwillingness she had before, so even though she hadn't formally contacted the people in Zhen Guo's mansion, she already instinctively disliked them.

She turned her head to look at the people around her, thought for a while, and said softly: "But there are many ways to remove it, don't hurt innocent people."

Shen Muli responded casually, and then kissed her lips along her profile.

After a while, he lowered his head against her forehead, his voice was breathless, "Empress Dowager, when will you give the title to the minister?"
