After divorce, the princess was forced to raise the villain

Jing Si smiled and said nothing.

Not long after, the food and drinks were served, and as soon as the two of them picked up their chopsticks, they heard the drunken voice of a man passing by in the corridor, which sounded a bit joyful.

"To be honest with you, this news just came from the palace. I have already prepared the money and am just waiting to present it to the imperial concubine on her birthday. Our Wang family has been in business for generations. I never thought that one day someone would be an official.

One day, it was really a surprise!”

The man opened his heart and lungs, and after speaking, he started to swallow hard, as if crying with joy.

People around him also echoed.

"Yes! Who would have thought that the emperor loves his concubine so much that he would auction off his official position in order to win the beauty's smile."

"What! I heard that it was simply because the treasury was emptied."

"The treasury is empty?"

When they heard this, everyone was shocked and looked in disbelief.

But the person who spoke raised his hand to signal everyone to be silent, and then carefully looked around to make sure no one was around before lowering his voice and said: "That's right! Someone in my family is on duty in the palace. I heard that after returning the treasure from the previous dynasty, the entire treasury will be filled."

It was empty, and the emperor made a big fuss, and finally thought of this way to replenish the treasury."

"This is not something I say lightly. You must not go out and talk nonsense."

His face was full of solemnity, and the others nodded. Little did they know that Huangque was behind them, and these words fell clearly on the ears of Shen Ling and Jing Si.

"The emperor sells his official position?"

Shen Ling frowned, her eyes full of sarcasm.

This old emperor is really greedy, he would even do such a thing just for money!

Jing Si nodded, his expression complex and unclear.

In a country where even the emperor trades his official position for money, what hope can there be?

In an instant, Shen Ling seemed to see the scene of people's country being ruined and their families destroyed. She raised her eyes to look at Jing Si. She knew that he had a problem in his heart, but it was a pity that he could only assist such an emperor because he was so talented and beautiful.

"The day after tomorrow is the birthday of the imperial concubine. This year is different from previous years. We have specially held a banquet at the Waterside Pavilion outside the palace in order to allow these wealthy merchants to attend. Come along!"

If Lin Fengzhi saw herself after her birthday, she would be so angry that she would die!

Shen Ling shook his head, really not wanting to get involved.

Instead of watching that group of people pretending to be affectionate, smiling and scheming behind the scenes, it would be better to stay in the house and study their own poisonous insects.

"Really not going?"

Jing Si asked back, seeing that she was determined, he pretended to be regretful, "Tsk, tsk, that's such a pity. I wanted to let you get some benefits then, but since you don't want to go, I'll be wasting my time."

Is there any benefit?

Shen Ling Qinshui's eyes rolled twice, and she changed her tone instantly, "Since you, husband, have worked so hard, how can I flatter you? I will go, I must go!"

Seeing the fish easily taking the bait, Jing Si smiled even more.

After a while, the two of them were full. Shen Ling covered her round belly and frowned when she thought of the treasure that she had not yet disposed of.

"Now that the meal is finished, where do I put those things?"

Jing Si remained silent, but there was a knock on the door from outside. Following his signal, a man walked in and handed over the pair of cards in his hand.

"Master, according to your instructions, the things have been stored in the banks respectively. These are the cards of several banks. With this card, you can take them at will."

Jing Si nodded and gently raised his hand to wave to Shen Ling. His subordinates immediately understood and handed it over respectfully.

"So you left it at the bank."

Although Shen Ling was surprised, he felt that it was reasonable. He nodded with satisfaction, took the pair of cards, and hid them in his arms like a treasure, for fear of accidentally losing them.

at night.

Someone from the palace asked Shen Ling to meet him by name.

This person was Lin Fengzhi's right-hand nun. When Shen Ling passed by, she was arrogantly lecturing the maids in the mansion. When she noticed someone coming, she just glanced disdainfully.

She originally thought that Shen Ling would salute respectfully, but she didn't want Shen Ling to ignore it and sit directly on the main seat, as if she were the mistress of the house.

"Uneducated!"

She instantly darkened her face and muttered displeasedly.

In response to her words, Shen Ling snorted coldly and retorted: "A dog relies on human power!"

"You, what did you say?"

No one in the palace dared to treat her like this!

Being so humiliated by a hairy girl, her face turned the color of pig liver, and she pointed at Shen Ling, furious.

"How dare you, you are just a palace servant, how dare you treat your master like this?"

Shen Ling glanced at her, and the next second a guard came forward, grabbed her hand, and slapped her face mercilessly.

Grandma covered her face, feeling a little dazed by the burning sensation.

"I will teach you a lesson this time. If you dare to disrespect me again, I will pull out your tongue. If you do it again, your legs will be chopped off."

"you dare!"

Mammy screamed, her cloudy eyes filled with hatred, "I, I belong to the imperial concubine."

Shen Ling snorted coldly, "What about your noble concubine? In the end, the Holy One has the final say in this world. The Holy One is the most just person. He will never allow you, a little palace maid, to do something disrespectful and disrespectful."

Seeing her move out of the Holy Land to suppress her, Mammy could only bear the breath with a face filled with resentment. She took deep breaths repeatedly to calm down. After a while, she calmed down and waved her hand behind her.

"This old slave is following the imperial concubine's decree. Please be sure to attend the birthday banquet in three days' time. Furthermore, the imperial concubine has specially gifted you a set of clothes. I hope you can wear them."

Shen Ling glanced at the clothes held by the palace maid and felt that they looked very familiar.

Her eyes moved slightly, and she suddenly remembered - weren't these Song Xinyu's old clothes?

This Lin Fengzhi really worked hard every day. In order to make things difficult for herself and make herself look embarrassed, she didn't even care about the most basic face.

She sneered and didn't answer.

Mammy didn't care. She didn't believe that Shen Ling had the courage to disobey the imperial concubine's orders. Seeing the silence of the person opposite, she felt that she had accepted it, so she became more arrogant.

"The noble concubine appreciates you. You must not let down this favor."

To put it bluntly, don’t be ignorant of good and evil!

Shen Ling snorted coldly, but still ignored it. After listening to her sarcastic words to herself, she left with satisfaction, a profound expression on her face.

In the palace.

Lin Fengzhi couldn't wait to see her for the first time, "How is it? What did Shen Ling say?"

With a smile on her face, Mammy said flatteringly: "Your Majesty has made a decree. How dare she say anything? Naturally she accepted it obediently. Let's just wait for her birthday to show off all the ugliness!"

Lin Fengzhi nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. She didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

"It's strange. That girl doesn't seem to be someone who is easy to manipulate. She won't make any mistakes along the way, right?"

Thinking about it, she felt a little worried.

On the contrary, grandma didn't care at all, and persuaded her: "Your Majesty, you think too much! No matter what abilities she has, can she be stronger than you?"
