The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

"Father, all the girls on the list are prostitutes!"

Shen Xiangjun thought that her father didn't realize who was on the list, so she quickly stepped forward, picked up the Beijing news at the top of the case, spread it out, and pointed out the three women.

"These three are prostitutes. How can Jun'er be on the same list with them? How will others see me? They use their beauty to please men and live in filth, but I am my father's daughter!"

Shen Xiangjun's fingers were shaking and her voice was tearful.

She had always been very tough, but this kind of insult was too much to bear.

Prime Minister Shen frowned, "Do you know them?"

What is this focus on?

"I have also heard of them. Those dandy young men would occasionally mention them. And, I just don't know why it is also written here, father, Jing Wen made annotations after publishing this list, marking out their identities."

This also made Shen Xiangjun very angry.

"If it's not marked, some people might not care even if they see it, but now that it's marked, everyone will know at a glance that the daughter of a prime minister is lumped together with a prostitute. Father, they are slapping you in the face."

How could the father not be angry?

He should be angry, he has always been very concerned about his reputation.

Prime Minister Shen looked at Luo Qiu's name on it and thought about the gift in the box just now. He was not really angry.

In fact, Jingwen's move made him feel a little happy. Of course, it would have been better if Xiangjun had not been written on it.

"This Jingwen is always a tabloid among the people. No one will take it seriously. It will only be used as a topic of conversation after dinner. Don't take it too seriously."

Shen Xiangjun looked at his father in a daze.

For a moment, she felt like she didn't know him. Her father was not like this before. Although her father, the prime minister, was known to the outside world as kind and generous, she knew that anyone who offended him would never have a good ending.

If it had happened before, this would definitely have been considered an embarrassment to his father, but this time he was not angry at all?

Prime Minister Shen's face was calm. Shen Xiangjun could only see that he was not angry, but naturally could not tell how happy he was.

"Besides, there will be bigger news in tomorrow's Beijing News, and people's attention will definitely be drawn to that matter. No one will talk about this beauty list anymore. You just need to endure it today." Prime Minister Shen said again.

Shen Xiangjun calmed down.

"Father, what big thing is going to happen tomorrow?"

"It's about the sudden death of the friends of Young Marquis Zhou who came from Jiangnan. This is a big deal. Just wait and see."

He advised Shen Xiangjun a few more words.

Shen Xiangjun seemed to be persuaded by him and quickly left the study.

As soon as she left, Prime Minister Shen looked serious.

As for Young Marquis Zhou's matter, the fire will spread to Prince Jin. If he is not careful, Prince Jin will be in big trouble.

If he makes proper arrangements, he may be able to lend a helping hand to King Jin. Then he will be qualified to negotiate terms with King Jin.

Many people in the court felt that Shen Xiangjun should be the Crown Princess, as this was the most suitable marriage.

But he could see that the emperor didn't like the prince at all, so the emperor would not marry Xiangjun to the prince.

Otherwise, why would he allow his daughter to wait until now and not get engaged?

The emperor kept it secret for the past two years, and he was not sure. But in the past two years, he could see that the prince was smart and steady, but the emperor actually didn't like him.

But now the eldest prince is still the eldest prince after all, and has been appointed as the crown prince. There is nothing that cannot be corrected. The emperor probably cannot find a solution for the time being and is not in a hurry to abdicate, so the crown prince is still the crown prince.

The emperor was not in a hurry for Shen Xiangjun's marriage.

It's not him who is delayed.

No one revealed these things, so they just dragged on.

As for the second prince... Prime Minister Shen actually doesn't think highly of him.

He had other plans.

After Shen Xiangjun left the study, he looked back at the study, then lowered his voice and said to Xianglian, "Aren't you on good terms with my father's entourage? Go and ask around to see if my father has ever seen those three prostitutes."

Xianglian was stunned for a moment.

"Miss, doesn't the master never set foot in such places?"

Prime Minister Shen still has a very good reputation.

Shen Xiangjun's eyes deepened slightly. She had a hunch that her father's reaction to this matter was not right.

"Just listen to me and ask around. Be careful and don't ask directly."

"Yes."

Qing Fuhou was indeed anxious. Zhu Minghao had lost a lot of weight in prison and was on the verge of collapse. He was in a daze and if he was not got out, his son would probably be ruined.

The Queen Mother went to the Emperor and told him about this matter despite the fact that he was still ill.

"No matter what, Minghao is also the child your father has watched grow up. Now the girl from the Lin family who is engaged to him is dying of illness, and Minghao is needed to bring good luck. If we don't agree, won't Minghao bear the cruel reputation of watching his fiancée die?"

"Let him come out to get married and celebrate. After that, you can confine him to a farm outside the city, which is no different from imprisonment. It is reasonable to explain it to anyone. You can go to the ancestral temple to ask your father's opinion on this matter. If he agrees, do it as soon as possible."

The emperor thought about the fact that the tablet of the retired emperor would fall down from time to time, and understood the empress dowager's thoughts.

Speaking of which, he also knew that the Queen Mother favored Zhu Minghao.

"Your Majesty?" The Queen Mother did not give him time to think carefully and was a little aggressive.

The emperor had no choice but to agree.

"If the emperor's tablet really agrees, then I can't stop it."

After getting the emperor's consent, the empress dowager immediately passed the order down and asked people from the Ministry of Rites to handle it.

Because he wanted more people to see it with their own eyes to stop rumors, he called a few ministers to go with him, and Lin Bianxiu was also called.

How could King Jin be left out of such a matter?

It can be said that Zhu Minghao was put into jail by Lu Zhaoling. Prince Jin was her backer, so they had to be silenced to prevent them from causing trouble again. Therefore, the Queen Mother asked the people from the Ministry of Rites to invite Prince Jin and Lu Zhaoling to go to the ancestral temple together.

When Lu Zhaoling heard that they would go to the ancestral temple early tomorrow morning, her eyebrows raised.

"Okay."

Even if the Queen Mother didn't let her go, she would have to hang on to Zhou Shiyue and go with him.

I went to the ancestral temple and asked the emperor why he wanted Zhou Shiyue to marry Shen Xiangjun. Why did he like Shen Xiangjun so much? Moreover, I had to tell him about the matter of Weiming Mountain.

"The prince said he will come to pick you up tomorrow morning." Qingbao said.

"Ah."

Lu Ming also heard about this.

He didn't want to see Lu Zhaoling these two days. Although his condition had improved, he always felt that he would be angry again if he saw Lu Zhaoling.

But after hearing this, he couldn't help but come to Tingnuanlou.

When Lu Zhaoling saw Lu Anfan helping him over, he let out a sigh.

"Lord Lu can walk now? It's really sad that he recovered so quickly."
