After entering the book, he stole the heroine's charming attributes

Deng Ming has left and returned to Xiezhou Prefecture. He said that it is more comfortable to stay in Xiezhou Prefecture because Jiao Daxiong is there, and Shen Li has basically mastered the techniques of hidden weapons, so all that is left is just practice.

Qin Yu suddenly felt a little depressed: "Did you learn all this when you were apart from me?"

"Well, but don't think too much about it. I didn't learn it because I separated from you. I wanted to learn it because I was doing business before. I felt that my life should not be just about business, so I wanted to learn something else. I learn things quickly and I learned it all without realizing it."

"Ali, no matter what you learn in the future, I will be by your side."

Shen Li turned around and hugged Qin Yu: "We will never be separated again."

Qin Yu also hugged Shen Li tightly: "Well, unless I die, we will never separate."

"No, we all have to live well and be together happily forever. This is what I want."

"Okay, it's up to you."

After leaving Qin Yu's house, Shen Li went to the shops again. The ointment was selling very well. She visited the shops in East Square Market and West Square Market. Seeing that there was no problem, she returned home.

Nowadays, no matter which shop it is, the ointment sells well.

Perfume sells well in the East Market where rich people live, but it is very ordinary in the West Market. After all, it is too expensive, so the supply of perfume in the West Market is very small.

The next step is to build the workshop and open a massage parlor. There is no shortage of rich people in Kyoto, so the massage parlor business must be very good.

But we still have to wait until the workshop is built. After all, transporting the essential oil from Xiezhou Prefecture is too time-consuming and laborious, and we can afford to waste some time.

Before the New Year, she received a letter from Li Erya, saying that the eleven provincial capitals in the central region had been developed and asked her what she was going to do next. Shen Li replied that she should have a good New Year.

Now is the time for them to come to Kyoto, get familiar with the place, and help her open the massage parlor. When the workshop is built and can make ointments, she can develop the five prefectures in the north. Then her ointment business will spread throughout the entire Qi Dynasty.

After writing and drawing on paper, making a simple plan of what to do next and finishing the letter to Li Erya, Shen Li went to see if Shen Han had returned.

But I met him at the door who had just returned.

"Brother, you just came back?"

"Well, I just took office and I have a lot of things to do."

"Then go back to the house and get some rest."

"Well, is there something wrong, Ali?"

"It's nothing serious, brother, you should take a rest first."

"We are all family, so just tell me what's on your mind. Even though Big Brother is tired, he can still say a few words."

"Then let's go to my room and talk."

Shen Han nodded, and the two of them entered Shen Li's room.

The brother and sister sat at the table, and Shen Li poured a glass of water for Shen Han.

"Brother, I want to ask you about the matter between you and Princess Xiang Ning. I think she seems to be treating you well? Are you guys..."

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you, A-Li. Don't tell anyone else what I say today, including mother and your second brother. Got it?"

Shen Li looked at his serious face and nodded: "Okay."

Shen Han took a sip of water, and his voice lost its previous seriousness: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with us. When I first became the top scholar, she admired my talent very much, and she always brought some books to ask me for advice. Gradually, I learned that she was a woman with outstanding literary talent, and her knowledge was not inferior to that of men."

Although Shen Han did not explain it in detail, Shen Li could imagine that since the two of them were asking for advice and teaching each other, and they were both smart and talented, they would naturally appreciate each other. The most important thing was that the eldest brother was good-looking and a decent person, it was hard for a girl not to be attracted to him.

Princess Xiangning was also very beautiful. She did not seem to be as unruly and willful as a royal princess. She also had real talent and knowledge, which naturally made her attractive.

It was only natural that the two of them secretly fell in love with each other.

"So you two fell in love with each other?"

"Maybe. I can see affection in her eyes, but she has never said anything. We are just an ordinary monarch and subject relationship now."

"Brother, you can't be sure how she feels about you, but what about you? How do you feel about her?" Shen Li understood what this meant. It was simply that the two of them were attracted to each other, but neither of them had expressed it.

"I... I just admire her talent." Shen Han didn't know what to say. It was impossible for them to be together, so it would be better not to say anything.

"Brother, I know you are in a dilemma. You think she is a princess, and there is a huge gap in status between you and her. Also, if you two are really together, you will have to resign from your official position. These are all your concerns, but you cannot deceive yourself. If you exclude all these external reasons, ask yourself, do you really like her?"

Shen Han lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then raised his head: "Ali, some things are better not to be said."

"That means you like me, brother. Are you really not going to consider fighting for it?"

Shen Han smiled bitterly: "How can I fight for it? You know, her husband is dead, how can I know if she has forgotten it now? And she is older than me, even if she doesn't have her status, do you think mother will agree?"

Shen Li thought about it. If Wen Xiangning was not a princess, then she was a married woman who was three years older than Shen Han. If it happened in modern times, there would be no problem. But this was ancient times. To put it bluntly, she was a widow. Her parents would probably not agree.

Not to mention that Shen Han was a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Personnel in the imperial court.

Princess Xiangning probably also had these concerns, so she didn't say anything. It must be said that as a princess, she could still consider these things for others.

Either she loved him too much, or she was just a person who cared a lot about others, but Shen Li felt that it was the first one.

"Mother...may not agree, but brother, I am still a princess, so even if mother disagrees, she can't stop me."

"Yes, but I don't want my mother to be sad. There are too many problems between us that we can't overcome, such as status, resignation, and my mother. The emperor may not agree, and there are also some people's eyes. You see, there are so many difficulties. If you know it's impossible, don't do it."

Shen Li didn't know what to say. These problems were real and could not be solved with a little effort like those of his second and third brothers.

Apart from anything else, the issue of identity is something that no one can change.

She also wanted lovers to get married, but this time, she felt it was too difficult.

She seemed unable to help, so she patted Shen Han's shoulder in frustration: "Brother, you know your sister has always been smart, and the marriages of the second and third brothers all depend on me as a matchmaker, but you are really difficult to deal with, and I don't know what to do with your sister."
