Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Shen Wantang shook his head: "It's a bit exaggerated to say that I have a photographic memory. I just have a better memory."

Lu Qiying looked at her with a complicated expression. For the first time, he did not respect Shen Wantang because of her identity as the Crown Prince's Consort. He respected her because of her own abilities - she had an excellent memory, was calm and composed, and was very humble and low-key.

Shen Wantang knew from his expression that he had misunderstood. She really didn't have the ability to remember everything she saw. The only person she had seen with this ability was Gu Qianhan.

In her previous life, she often investigated and solved cases. In order to remember many details and clues, she developed the ability to remember instantaneous images. This was something she acquired through practice, not something she was born with.

Moreover, the book that Lu Qiying just took was one she had read when she was at Shen's house, and she could almost recite it by heart.

However, her move shocked everyone, and they all looked at her in shock.

Shen Guannian's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he blurted out, "This is impossible! When did you become so smart?!"

Gu Qianning had disliked Shen Guannian for a long time. As a father, not only did he not stand by his own daughter, but he actually stood by a security guard and scolded his daughter in front of so many people, not giving her any face at all.

She said in a cold voice: "Sir Shen, the Crown Prince's Consort is your biological daughter. Isn't it good that she is smart? Why do I hear you seem to not expect her to be smart? It is rare for a father like you to be like this. If you don't know, you might think that the Crown Prince's Consort is your enemy!"

"The Crown Princess is helping Lord Lu find clues to solve the case and recalling the differences between Xiang Meng's past and present. You should be helping him recall. You have been undermining her, don't you have ulterior motives?"

Shen Guannian's face froze. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when he thought of Gu Qianning's identity, he dared not say anything.

This is the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo and the future queen. If he offends her, how will he survive in officialdom in the future?

Lu Qiying actually didn't like Shen Guannian either, but he didn't have time to care about the internal strife of the Shen family at the moment. He was focused on solving the case: "Princess, how did Xiang Meng get this black bruise on his face? When I pressed it just now, it seemed a little hard, which is a bit strange."

Of course Shen Wantang knew the reason, but she couldn't say it because that would make her seem too prophetic. In her previous life, she had someone cut open the bruises on Xiang Meng's face before she knew the real reason for his bruises.

"Lord Lu, I don't know how he got the bruises on his face, but he didn't have them before. They only appeared in the past two years. If you want to know the reason, you can ask the imperial physician, or ask the Second Master Gu."

Lu Qiying looked at Shen Wantang with some doubt. He actually suspected that Shen Wantang knew the reason, but since she didn't say it, he couldn't force her. Besides, there was nothing wrong with her pointing out the solution to him.

He nodded and asked his men to take Xiang Meng back to the Ministry of Justice.

Xin Huailin naturally followed him.

The only people left in the room were Shen Wantang, Gu Qianning, and Shen Guannian, who had a stiff and ugly expression.

Because of the presence of Gu Qianning, the future queen, Shen Guannian did not dare to vent his anger and could only suppress it, which made him extremely uncomfortable.

His pretended gentle tone was filled with reproach and accusation: "Tang'er, your father underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be so smart and capable. You can solve cases and have a photographic memory. You are amazing!"

"You were never good at anything you learned before, it turns out you were just pretending! Why are you doing this? We are all family, don't you feel tired of playing tricks in front of your family?"

"Don't do this again in the future. Your father has always taught you to be honest and upright. You must listen to him. People who are not honest will not go far."

Shen Wantang suddenly laughed, but there was no smile in her smile, only a cold chill.

"Father, have you forgotten who taught me not to be too honest? The year my mother passed away, my sister and I followed my brothers to study. I wrote a poem for father, but he refused to believe that I wrote it myself. He insisted that I copied it and said that I was dishonest. Then he punished me with family rules. I knelt in the ancestral hall for three whole days!"

Shen Wantang never told Shen Guannian these things in her previous life. In this life, she wanted to seek justice for her younger self.

"As a father, you don't trust your daughter, and then you punish her for her honesty with thunderous means. Now, you are teaching me that I should be honest? If I were really honest, I would have died during those three days of kneeling in the ancestral hall!"

Shen Guannian stared at her in astonishment: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could this happen? When did I say that the poem you wrote was copied? When did I hit you? You must have remembered it wrongly. I love you so much, I would never hit you!"

"Wait, that's not right. When have you ever written a poem? I only remember your sister writing poems, but you can't write poems at all!"

"Tang'er, please don't make up stories in front of outsiders and accuse your father of something. This is extremely unfilial. Do you understand?"

The expression on Shen Wantang's face disappeared.

It was an extremely painful experience for her, but to Shen Guannian, it was a trivial matter not worth mentioning. He had even completely forgotten about it.

He didn't remember that she could write poetry, but he remembered that Shen Mingxuan could write poetry.

It is obvious who he loves.

Talking to him was like talking to a cow. Shen Wantang didn't want to waste any more words. She turned around and gestured to Gu Gu Qianning, and the two of them walked out together.

But as soon as he stepped out of the door, he ran into Shen Mingxuan and Liao Youhe.

"Where's Lord Lu? Where's General Xin? Are they all gone?"

Shen Mingxuan's face darkened and she looked at Shen Wantang: "It's you again! Did you drive them away on purpose? Who allowed you to come back? You jinx, you are not allowed to come back in the future!"

Shen Wantang looked indifferent: "Shen Mingxuan, you are still the same as always, you like to push the responsibility onto me, you are still so - brainless."

"What did you say?!"

Shen Mingxuan was shocked and angry: "You dare to scold me? This is outrageous. Ever since you married into Prince Ning's mansion, you have lost your sense of self!"

"Father, look at her, she is so selfish and doesn't care about the Shen family at all. She drove Lord Lu away as soon as she arrived. I originally wanted to bring You He to solve the case! Now everything has been ruined by her!"

"Father, you should punish her with family discipline! Beat her up and then make her kneel in the ancestral hall!"

Shen Wantang sneered, "Shen Mingxuan, what family rules? What ancestral hall? My father loves me so much, how could he beat me? How could he bear to let me kneel in the ancestral hall? What nonsense are you talking about?"
