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

The next day, Shen Li thought about going to the workshop to find Meng Huaying and see if he could ask him to return to Xiezhou Prefecture and bring some people to Kyoto, but he still wanted to ask if he still had the people he had trained.

If you have any, please bring some more. We don’t have enough manpower in Kyoto.

Or we can recruit in Kyoto. Now that the workshop has been stabilized, the only problem is the personnel. It is also possible to recruit in Kyoto. The only problem is the confidentiality agreement. The government office in the capital may not stamp it with the official seal.

But this is not a difficult matter. He can just find his elder brother or Qin Yu and see who can go and say hello. After all, it is not a big deal.

"Miss, someone from the government office is looking for you and wants you to go and identify the body." Zhang Wang said outside the door.

Identify the body? Who?

Is it...

When Shen Li got on the carriage, Zhuo Da followed her out. She said nothing and followed the yamen runners to the Jingji Yamen.

After entering the morgue, the bailiff lifted the white cloth covering one of the dead bodies and said, "Look, is this a servant from your mansion? This morning, someone found a body in the river, and later someone said that they seemed to have seen this person next to Miss Shen."

Shen Li glanced at Zhuo Da and found that he was staring at the corpse with red eyes. Alas! I didn't expect Zhuo Er to die like this. He wanted to be with Shen Yanyan, but he didn't expect this result.

"Brother, this man is indeed from my house. I wonder how he died?" She found some bloodstains on Zhuo Er's chest, but no murder weapon.

"He was stabbed to death. He was stabbed three times."

"Any clues about the murderer?"

"No, there was nothing at the scene, not even a murder weapon."

Shen Li knew that the murderer could not be found. No matter whether it was Shen Yanyan or Gu Chengan, there was no way to accuse them without any evidence.

In fact, the most likely murderer is Shen Yanyan. After all, Zhuo Er must have gone to find her, but does Shen Yanyan really dare to kill anyone?

If it was Gu Cheng'an, he would have plenty of ways to make a person disappear without anyone noticing and impossible to find.

"Zhuo Da, the dead cannot be resurrected, please accept my condolences."

"Miss, I... I'm fine. He deserved his own death. If he hadn't betrayed you, he wouldn't have ended up like this. He did something wrong. He can't blame anyone else for this result."

Shen Li patted his shoulder comfortingly: "Death is the greatest thing. Let the past be the past. Let's take him back and bury him properly."

She knew that the brothers had always depended on each other and had a very good relationship. If Zhuo Er had not fallen in love with Shen Yanyan, perhaps this would not have been the outcome.

As soon as she left the yamen, she saw Princess Xiangning's maid Hongyue. She looked back and saw that it was indeed the carriage from the princess's mansion.

"Miss Shen, our princess is here to see you." Hongyue said.

Then Princess Xiangning's voice came from the car: "Ali, get in the car."

Shen Li entered the carriage: "Why is Your Highness here?"

"I was originally going to your house because I heard that you were assassinated yesterday. I wanted to see if you were okay. But then they told me you were here, so I came to check."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm fine."

"Then you come here?"

Shen Li told the story again, but did not mention Gu Chengan and Shen Yanyan, after all, there was no evidence.

"Do you know who wants to kill you?"

"There are speculations, but no evidence."

"Ali, I treat you as my sister. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask me."

"I know, Your Highness, don't worry, I can handle it. If I need your help, I won't be polite." Shen Li is now familiar with the princess, and speaks more casually, and no longer calls herself a commoner.

"Okay, then I'll take you back."

Arriving at the gate of the Shen Mansion, Shen Li got off the carriage, then turned around and looked at Princess Xiang Ning in the carriage: "Your Highness, would you like to come in and sit down?"

"Okay, it's a good opportunity for us to have a good chat."

Shen Li always felt that she agreed too readily.

The two of them entered the front hall. Just as Liu Xing brought the tea, Liu Dahua and Shen Han came in. Naturally, they wanted to greet them, but were stopped by Princess Xiangning.

"No need to be so polite, I just came to chat with Ali."

"Brother, are you at home?" Shen Li said and glanced at Wen Xiangning.

"Yeah, I just got back too." Shen Han said.

"Oh, mother, brother, I just went to the government office. Zhuo Er is dead, and they asked me to identify the body."

"How could such a good person die just like that?" Liu Dahua said.

"How did he die? Do you know who killed him?" Shen Han asked.

Shen Li shook his head: "I don't know, he was killed, and the murderer didn't leave any clues."

"Every cause has its effect. If I hadn't betrayed you, I wouldn't have been harmed by others. So, Ali, you still have to do good things." Shen Han said.

"Brother, you can't tell me this. I am a good person, and I will be rewarded."

"Yes, you are the kindest person. You are just afraid that I will make sense. Is it not okay if I don't say anything?" Shen Han said helplessly.

"You two siblings have such a good relationship." Princess Xiangning said.

"Your Highness, the emperor is very kind to you?" Shen Li said.

"Ali, the emperor is not someone you can discuss." Shen Han said.

Princess Xiang Ning laughed and said, "It's okay. In fact, my brother is very good to me, but the royal family is different from ordinary families." Then she looked at Shen Han and said, "Sir Shen, I read a book recently and there are many things I don't understand. Why don't you explain it to me?"

"Your Highness, I have things to do. Let's do it another day."

Wen Xiangning smiled and said, "Okay."

"Then Your Highness, my mother and I will take our leave first. Let A-li stay with you for a while longer."

Shen Li looked at the two of them and sighed in her heart. She really couldn't bear to see lovers separated. It seemed that her elder brother was avoiding the princess. She also knew what he was thinking. He just felt that it was impossible, so she shouldn't give him any more hope.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

Wen Xiangning smiled bitterly: "Ah Li, did you figure it out?"

"Your Highness is referring to you and my elder brother..."

"Yes, in fact, you have already seen it. He... has been avoiding me recently. I know what he means. He just doesn't want to accept it."

"Then your highness, what do you think?"

"Whatever I think, it's useless. You should have heard my story. I was married, but my husband died suddenly three years ago. I was planning to live like this for the rest of my life, but I met your eldest brother, and he brought my dead heart back to life."

Shen Li thought about it and asked, "Then Your Highness, why don't you ask the Emperor for permission to marry you?"

Wen Xiangning smiled: "Sometimes, I also want to be a little willful and selfish, so I asked for a marriage, but A-li, I can't do that. To be honest, I often feel that I am not worthy of your brother in front of him. He is well-educated, kind, and a good official. Apart from my status as a princess, I really feel that..."
