Chapter 2642 Prime Minister Jin is not a stepping stone

[I like the host’s bad temper! 】

[It’s a pity that I can’t see that scene with my own eyes, it must be amazing~]

[Oh, the beauty is given to the male pig~~~]

[That's wrong! He's a thief but not a beauty. I've been disgusted by this male pig for a long time. Well done, host! ]

The comments expressed satisfaction and support for Shi Li's approach.

Nowadays, the pressure of life is already great enough, who wants to see others feel frustrated? Of course, the more relaxed the better!

But poor Zhong Shanlang's face was ashen, and he could only do it himself, fetching water again and again to wash away the dirt around the gate.

Perhaps this incident was too shocking, and the neighbors couldn't help but watch quietly. Knowing that he was an official, although they didn't dare to talk about it to his face, they did talk about it behind his back.

The common people would all think that this person must have offended someone and that was why someone came to throw feces at his house. Maybe there was something wrong with his conduct as a person or an official.

Zhong Shanlang worked until midnight, and nearly vomited several times. In the end, he felt that his body was covered with an indescribable smell.

He closed the door and went back into the room. He could no longer pretend to be gentle and humble, and slapped the table hard.

"Who on earth could humiliate me like this?"

Thinking about the bad things that had happened in the past few days, Zhong Shanlang's eyes became more sinister, his hands clenched into fists with veins bulging, and his eyes narrowed, full of calculations.

The wind was exceptionally cold in the middle of the night. Zhong Shanlang stared outside the door until there was a knock on the door as expected.

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Shanlang stood up and walked over to open the door.

The sinister look on his face turned into earnestness, and he smiled at the person who walked in from outside the door and said, "Please come in."

The man was tall and shrouded in a pitch-black cloak, making it impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman.

In a blink of an eye, it was the anniversary of the original owner's mother's death.

As in previous years, Prime Minister Shi asked for leave from the emperor early, and then took Shi Li with him to visit the grave of his deceased wife.

The two were young couple and accompanied each other all the way, from a humble position as prime minister to the highest position in the country, and their relationship was so deep that no one could compare to it.

It’s just that his love was too great for his wife, who died too early, leaving behind only Shi Li’s bloodline.

Whenever he thought of this, Prime Minister Shi couldn't help but burst into tears.

Shi Li was standing next to him, but she felt that she couldn't really empathize with the old father.

The more he loves the original owner's mother, the more the existence of Shi Nian and Shi Jiao seems ironic. Although he is forced by the times, Shi Li really cannot recognize such "deep affection".

After lingering in front of his deceased wife's tomb for a long time, Prime Minister Shi finally decided to leave reluctantly.

When passing by a simple wonton shop on the edge of the city, he did not forget to stop with Shi Li and ordered two bowls of wontons.

"When your mother and I first came to the capital, your mother loved the wontons from this family the most. After so many years, the taste has not changed at all, but I have completely changed beyond all recognition."

Prime Minister Shi was dressed in casual clothes and no one recognized him. He ate wontons like an ordinary citizen, and a hint of nostalgia appeared on his weathered face.

He was a good father who had done his best to raise the original owner over the years. But he was really cruel to other children.

Even though Shi Nian and Shi Jiao were not born as he wished, they are innocent after all.

As a direct beneficiary, Shi Li couldn't stand on the moral high ground to blame the old father, and could only sigh inwardly.

I was halfway through eating the wontons when customers started to arrive in the shop.

Unexpectedly, Shi Li heard his own name from the mouths of these ordinary people.

"Have you heard? The Prime Minister's daughter is hanging out with a wild man in the mountains!"

"It's not nice to fool around, maybe they are in love with each other?"

"Tsk, Master Xiao Zhong feels very aggrieved. What's wrong with the Prime Minister's daughter? She still has to sit in a wheelchair."

"Who says it's not? But the news has spread, why haven't the two families decided on a marriage yet?"

Shi Li looked down at the half-eaten wonton left in the bowl and felt like she couldn't eat any more. She was filled with nausea.

The old father sitting opposite was even more solemn and was about to stand up.

"Father." Shi Li spoke up to stop him and shook her head quietly, "Don't make it public yet. Let someone find out who said it, and then arrest them all."

In fact, Prime Minister Shi must know better than Shi Li how to deal with this kind of thing, but since it concerns his daughter, the old father is confused by his concern.

Prime Minister Shi took a few deep breaths and barely managed to suppress his anger, his brows already furrowed into a shape of a "川" (river) character.

Naturally, I couldn’t eat the wontons, so I quickly paid the bill and left.

As soon as he got on the carriage, Prime Minister Shi called his confidants over in anger.

"Go check and see who doesn't want to live anymore."

Shi Li was not panicked despite being beside him.

In fact, whether you investigate or not, you can guess that the incident is closely related to Zhong Shanlang. Seeing that he failed to accomplish anything on the mountain, he wanted to incite public opinion and climb up the high branch of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

He is so unscrupulous and I don't know whether he is making a family or an enemy, or maybe he really thinks Prime Minister Shi and Shi Li are fools.

It seems that the so-called inspirational hero with both literary and military skills is just a showpiece with the halo of the protagonist. After removing the enchantment, Shi Li felt that he was useless.

The Prime Minister’s confidants didn’t know what was going on until they checked. Once they did, they were really shocked.
