Is she feeling inferior?

I didn't expect Wen Xiangning to like Shen Han so much. Only when you love someone extremely will you feel that you are not worthy of the other person, and even feel that no one is worthy of you.

Even though Wen Xiang Ningcheng had been married once, she was the current princess. How could she feel that she was not worthy of a minister? Only if she really loved him would she consider the other person in every way.

"Your Highness, my elder brother would never think so. He is a gentleman and will definitely not despise you." Shen Li said.

"Yes, but I only want the best for her. Our dynasty has always had a rule that the prince consort cannot participate in state affairs. He is a good official and has his own ambitions. He wants to do more for the people. I can't be so selfish." Wen Xiangning said distressedly.

"Then Your Highness, can't you talk to the Emperor and ask my brother not to resign?"

"Ali, even if my brother wanted to, he wouldn't do it. If a precedent is set, what will happen to other princesses? Can the prince consorts not resign?"

"Is there no special situation? For example, if you have made great contributions, you can ask the emperor to make an exception?" Shen Li thought about it. He wondered if the emperor could make an exception for the reward of terraced fields.

"That depends on how great your achievements are. If they are great, then maybe it's possible, but is it that easy to achieve great achievements?"

"That's right." It seems that her contribution from the terraced fields is not enough.

"A Li, please don't tell your eldest brother what I said to you today. You know the problems we have. In fact, I also know what he is thinking, but we can't express it clearly. You see he is avoiding me now, so you know what he means. I respect him, so don't let him know what I said today, so as not to upset him." Wen Xiangning has never thought about someone like this before.

As a princess, she had everything she wanted, and people always revolved around her, so she didn't have to think about anything for others. But now, she seemed to have put all her thoughts on Shen Han.

She was afraid that he would be unhappy, that others would gossip about him, and that it would affect his career. She hoped that he could live happily every day, and hoped that he could display his strengths and achieve great things in the officialdom.

Maybe in the future I still hope that he can find a good woman who is worthy of him.

"I understand, Your Highness." Shen Li felt how much Wen Xiangning loved his elder brother from her words. Alas! She really thinks of her elder brother in every way. It would be a pity if such lovers were not together.

"Okay, let's stop talking about my unhappy things and talk about you."

"I don't have much to say..."

"How not……"

Day two.

"Luo Qi, how is Zhuo Da?" Shen Li asked.

"Yesterday, he and I buried Zhuo Er together. He has been staying in the room now. It will probably take some time. Miss, they are my fellow villagers. Zhuo Er betrayed you. Although he is dead now and cannot be investigated, Luo Qi still feels uncomfortable."

"Luo Qi, don't take everything on yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you. Even if Zhuo Er betrayed me, I didn't do anything. You should not have any thoughts. He is him and you are you. When you have time, you can persuade Zhuo Da more. He is too old-fashioned. I'm afraid he can't understand."

"I will."

At this time, Liu Xin walked in: "Miss, a guest has arrived."

"Who?"

"Master Jin and Master Guan."

"They came together?"

"Yes, but it seems that we met him at our door."

"Let them in quickly."

"Uh...Miss, Master Qin is here too."

"Him? Then why didn't he just come in?" Every time Qin Yu came, he didn't need to be informed or anything. The gatekeeper would let him in directly.

"He is talking to Young Master Jin." Liu Xin said.

"The three of them met at the door?" Why did Shen Li feel that something was wrong?

"Ah."

"Ali, are you talking about us?" Qin Yu walked in.

Shen Li saw Jin Duobao and Guan Wenyi coming in behind him. "Did you guys make an appointment? Otherwise it would be really strange that the three of you came together?"

"Yes, Ali is very popular. Look, everyone comes to see you." Qin Yu said.

Shen Li frowned: "That..." Then, she looked at Liu Xin: "Go pour tea."

"Go right away miss."

Seeing her walk out of the front hall in just a few steps, why did Shen Li feel like she was escaping?

She glanced at the three men sitting there, well, it made her want to escape.

"Did you two discuss this before coming together?"

"No, we met at the door. It seems that Lord Guan and I had the same idea. I heard that you were assassinated on your way back to Kyoto, so I came to see you. Are you okay?" Jin Duobao asked with concern.

"Do you think something's wrong with me?"

"It's okay."

Guan Wenyi also said: "I came to see you as well. I'm glad you're okay. Do you know who the assassin was?"

Shen Li nodded: "I know, but I don't have any evidence. However, I can still handle it, don't worry."

"That's good. If you need any help, come to me."

Shen Li smiled at Guan Wenyi: "I know. I won't be polite with you."

Jin Duobao also said: "Yes, don't forget me as your friend. If there is anything I can help you with, just come to me."

Shen Li stood up and gave the two of them a not-so-standard greeting: "Shen Li thanks you both very much."

"Hey? Don't be like this. It's not like yourself anymore." Jin Duobao said exaggeratedly.

"There's no need to be polite between us." Guan Wenyi said.

Qin Yu was about to flip the table. Did these two people pretend he didn’t exist?

"Thank you both for coming to visit Ali, but since she has me, you don't need to worry about her."

Shen Li raised his eyes and looked over. Qin Yu's face was clearly unhappy and he looked very jealous.

"Lord Qin, we are all Ali's friends, why do you have to be so formal?" Jin Duobao said.

"Friends should keep a distance between good friends. Mr. Jin is a wise man, so he should understand this, right?"

"Knowing that a friend is in trouble, coming to visit doesn't seem to me to be going beyond the distance, does it?"

Qin Yu nodded: "Yes, I'm just reminding Mr. Jin."

At this time Liu Xin brought the tea.

Guan Wenyi stood up and looked at Shen Li: "Since everything is fine, I will go back first."

"Would you like some tea?" Shen Li asked.

"No, there's still work to do."

Jin Duobao also stood up: "I will go with Master Guan."

"You don't want to drink anymore?" Shen Li said.

"Not this time, I'll drink it next time I have a chance."

"Ok."

After sending the two away, Shen Li looked at Qin Yu, who was still looking gloomy, and asked, "Are you jealous?"

"Ali, let's get engaged."
