"Xiaohuan, today you go and sort out the empty shops in the market, let's go open a store."

Shen Mo thought that if he could open a shop outside, maybe he could slowly become independent and break away from the Shen Mansion.

"Miss, the master won't agree."

Xiaohuan heard that his young lady was going out to open a store, and he was very worried in his heart, after all, in the Shen Mansion, the authority of the old man Shen Li was still very great, and he couldn't open this store if he didn't agree.

"So this kind of preparation has to be done secretly, and when everything is ready, the raw rice is cooked and ripe, what else can they say."

Shen Mo was not afraid that Shen Li would disagree, after all, he had to go to the court every day, and he was often away from home all day, so he was afraid that the Yuan family and Shen Yan would make a mistake behind his back.

"Remember, you must not let Yuan and Shen Yan find out."

Shen Mo told her again that because she was hunted down and killed before, she couldn't go out to make people laugh anymore.

"Don't worry, miss."

Xiaohuan patted her chest, full of confidence, the task given to her by the young lady will definitely be completed well.

Without delay, Xiaohuan simply cleaned up and went out.

The little dog originally wanted to go with Xiaohuan, but was stopped by Shen Mu, if the little dog followed together, the two people had a bigger target, and it would be easy to be discovered.

"Come here, puppy."

Shen Mo called the puppy to his side and tidied up his clothes for him.

The puppy blinked, looking a little nervous, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the silent face, twisting the corners of his clothes.

"What do you mean by saying sorry to me at the door that day?"

Silent relaxed his tone, knowing that the puppy was more introverted and timid because of the problems of the growth environment.

The little dog's sorry that day, Shen Mo was very concerned in his heart, I don't know why the little dog suddenly said such a sentence, they didn't have anything to do with each other before, so how can I say sorry.

"I... I... Miss, the last time I came to Jinyuting to see you practicing dance, I told the little maid who was playing with me that day, but who knew that she told Madame. ”

It turned out to be like this, and Shen Mo gently patted the puppy's head and smiled at him.

"It's okay, little dog, you can come to the Golden Jade Pavilion whenever you want to play in the future."

Hearing that the eldest lady was silent and didn't blame herself, the little dog also showed a sweet smile, she liked silence even more in her heart, and swore that she would never leak the matter of Jin Yuting in the future.

Above the court, Long Yan was furious, in order to let the residents of the Northern Desert Country trespass into the territory of Shuxia Kingdom, and for this reason, the border disputes between the two countries continued.

The courtiers in the audience bowed their heads and said nothing, and no one came out to propose a solution.

"I'm asking you how to solve it!"

Although the emperor Yezheng is over half a hundred years old, he is full of confidence and energy, and his words have a deterrent effect.

"Could it be that he let the Northern Desert Country wantonly occupy it, and my Shuxia Country's national prestige was trampled on by them like this?"

Ye Zheng saw that no one below dared to speak, and was about to be furious, when Wu Wang Ye Tingchen stood up.

"The emperor doesn't have to worry too much, the residents of the Northern Desert Country who broke into our country are some poor lower-class people in the Northern Desert Country, they already live close to the border between the two countries, and they have to enter our country to make a living due to the pressure of life, so they do not pose any threat to our country."

After Ye Tingchen said these words unhurriedly, Emperor Yezheng's mood also calmed down a little, not as anxious as just now, so he motioned for Ye Tingchen to continue.

According to the minister, it is very simple to solve this matter. First, in order to show that we are friendly to the outside world, these residents of the Northern Desert Country who have entered our country will not be sent out of the country, but just in case, we will set up a special place on the border and arrange them there to be self-sufficient. ”

After listening to the discussions, the ministers in the audience began to discuss each other, but more of them felt that it was reasonable to support them.

"Second, strengthen our border defense forces, expand the border guard force, and no longer allow foreign people to enter our territory at will."

Ye Zheng nodded appreciatively, and was impressed by Ye Tingchen, sure enough, the talent he fancied was so broad-minded.

"Just follow King Wu's instructions, and there must be no more mistakes."

Ye Zheng gave the order, and directly followed Ye Tingchen's thoughts.

Ye Tingchen lowered his head and suddenly saw Shen Li at the back of the line, and recognized him as Shen Mo's father who deceived him in disguise a few days ago.

"In other words, when the residents of the Northern Desert Country visited, the General Administration Department should take the lead in investigating public opinion, causing dissatisfaction among the people in our country, which is really a dereliction of duty."

Ye Tingchen mentioned the General Administration, believing that their dereliction of duty led to the aggravation of the contradictions between the two countries.

"Shen Aiqing, let's talk about it."

Yezheng called out Shen Li and asked him to explain the matter.

"Minister... Minister... This matter is a dereliction of duty on the part of the minister, and he begged the emperor to surrender his guilt. ”

Shen Li knelt directly on the ground with a spirit, it seems that King Wu has a grudge against Shen Mo forcing him to marry, and now that this incident has happened, King Wu will definitely kick himself into the water.

"The residents of the Northern Desert Country have invaded, and the border residents of our country have a lot of opinions, and you should go to investigate the public opinion and take care of the people, but your dereliction of duty has gradually worsened the situation, which has directly led to friendly exchanges between the two countries, can you bear this crime!"

Ye Tingchen directly raised this question to the perspective of the country, and Shen Li's legs trembled when he heard it, and he didn't even dare to raise his head.

"The ministers deserve death, ask the emperor for forgiveness."

Shen Li kowtowed to the ground vigorously to alleviate the emperor's anger so that the emperor could forgive his sins.

"It seems that Lord Shen is too busy with his daily work to even take care of his daughter, so how can he free up his hands to deal with border issues."

Ye Tingchen deliberately mentioned silence, so that Shen Li could be more aware of his situation.

Knowing that he was at a loss, and because of the power of King Wu, Shen Li did not plan to resist, sooner or later there would be this day, and he had no other choice but to accept it.

In the end, the emperor understood that Shen Li was an old minister in the court, and he had no merit and hard work, and did not blame him.

After the next dynasty, the emperor Yezheng left Wu Wang Ye Tingchen and asked him to play chess.

"Jun'er, I am very satisfied with your suggestion, it seems that you have really grown up, and you are no longer the child who can only read."

Ye Zheng looked at Ye Tingchen with satisfaction, thinking that his cultivation of him for so many years was not in vain.

"Back to the emperor, you only guessed half of the minister's intentions."

Ye Tingchen specially sold a pass and asked the emperor to guess what the other half was.

"I've only guessed half of it? I really can't think of this other half. ”

Ye Zheng stopped the chess in his hand and looked at the calm Ye Tingchen opposite, not knowing what the deeper intention of his plan was.

"My Shuxia country is a big country in the four seas, how can he invade his small Northern Desert country. Since the man has come in, he will be used by our country. ”

"What do you mean ......?"

Ye Zheng was startled, he really didn't guess what Ye Tingchen meant, and he really didn't take this into account.

"Those residents who come in, give them a good life and work in peace and contentment, it is easy to live a good life, but it is not easy to go back, if the two countries open a station, the Northern Desert Country will definitely have some scruples."

After listening to Ye Tingchen's words, he really couldn't think of a strategy that the person in front of him could come up with, what he heard in the court just now thought that the plan was very good, but he didn't expect that after listening to Ye Tingchen's analysis, he had to be admired.

"Jun'er, you are worthy of my fancy, and you will definitely be my right-hand man in the future, with you by my side, I feel much more at ease."

Ye Zheng didn't expect Ye Tingchen to have such courage and strategy, this is exactly the talent that his imperial court needs.

The sun was already setting when he went down, Shen Li didn't dare to stay, so he sat directly on the sedan chair and ordered the coachman to hurry back to Shen's mansion.

Rushing home in a hurry, Shen Li pointed directly at Jin Yuting, today he must set rules for Shen Mo, anger King Wu, and cause him to be bullied above the court, no matter how he teaches, he will definitely poke out a bigger basket for him.

"Master, why are you here?"

Xiaohuan happened to go out to pour water, and suddenly saw the old man Shen Li who rushed into the Golden Jade Pavilion angrily.

"Call your lady out!"

Shen Li walked directly into the lobby and sat at the table, waiting for a moment of silence to come over and how he should scold her.

Xiaohuan listened to the words, and hurriedly ran into the back room of the young lady and asked the young lady to come out quickly.

"Why did he come here again, did something happen again?"

asked silently, but where is this small ring clear, as soon as he went out, he bumped into it, so why don't you hurry over and report.

"Let's go, let's see."

Shen Mo took Xiaohuan to the lobby together, and thought silently in his heart that it would be better not to have anything happen, otherwise it would be difficult for him to rent a shop and slowly move out of the Shen family by the way.

As Xiaohuan said, Shen Li in the lobby looked angry, his brows soared, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Daddy, why are you here?"

asked in a soft voice.

"You, you are not allowed to step out of the gate of the Shen Mansion in the future, otherwise I will break your legs."

Shen Li pointed his finger at Shen Mo, and said this to Shen Mo almost as if he was shouting, don't let her go out, how can she provoke King Wu, if she doesn't provoke King Wu, he won't have to be bullied and ridiculed by people in the court.

"Why did Daddy say such a thing, did his daughter do something wrong?"

Shen Mo saw that Shen Li rushed home to scold her as soon as he got out of the court, something must have happened in the court, it seems that Ye Tingchen was in the court because he targeted Shen Li.

"You have a daughter's family, you should not go out of the door, but you don't know how to provoke King Wu and embarrass me, if it weren't for your mother's spirit in the sky, I would definitely punish you!"

Shen Mo heard Shen Li mention her mother, and her eyes burned with hatred, what she hated the most was that others mentioned her deceased mother.

"Please make it clear to my father, it was King Wu who took the white lotus in my room, and he personally promised to marry him, I have never felt that I have any restlessness, if I want to say that King Wu embarrassed my father in the court, it must be that my father did something embarrassing."

Shen Mo was not to be outdone, he thought that he would pass after saying a few words, but he didn't expect Shen Li to mention his mother and relatives without dying, according to her temper, she must not be able to bear it.

"You..."

Shen Li was blocked and couldn't speak, and he slammed the table angrily, and it was indeed his neglect of the border matter, and he was indeed derelict in this matter.

"The old man is angry, why is there such a big fire when he goes to the court?"

Yuan Shi twisted the waist of the water snake and came in, pretending to walk next to Shen Li to bring tea and pour water, and Shen Mo felt sick to his stomach when he saw it.

"Daddy doesn't have to be angry, my sister just wants to marry into the palace as soon as possible, then King Wu is so good, it is reasonable for my sister to flock to it."

Shen Yan covered his mouth with a hand fan and laughed, his words were full of mockery, and his eyes glanced at Shen Mo at every turn, watching her expression.

And how could Shen Mo not hear the meaning of this, he glanced at Shen Yan and stopped looking at Shen Yan, she and her mother were really carved out of the same mold, and she was sick to her stomach after seeing too much.

"It seems that my aunt and sister love my father very much, except for the court, they can't go anywhere, they are like shadows, like shadows."

Shen Mo is really afraid of something, if she is allowed to deal with Shen Li by herself, she is completely more than enough, if she adds the Yuan mother and daughter, she will really have to work hard.

"Your father had a hard day in the last dynasty, so he naturally has to be treated well."

Yuan Shi stood behind Shen Li and beat him on the back, not as gentle as her hands, her eyes were full of vicious light, and she stared at Shen Mo.

"Sister, don't make your father angry anymore, how high is King Wu's vision, the woman who wants to marry into King Wu's mansion can go around the entire capital, you just give up, I look good at the man you brought back that day, you can introduce it to your father."

Shen Yan observed Yuan's eyes, and directly shook out the matter that Shen Mo was sent back to the mansion by Zhun Tuer that day.

Looking at Shen Mo's flustered eyes, Shen Yan sneered in his heart, look at how you end up silently, while pestering King Wu and wanting to marry into King Wu's mansion, while hooking up outside, see how you explain.

"I've also seen that boy, it's really good, why don't you meet it too, Mo'er looked at the man and hugged him very closely, I think the two of them have made a lifelong decision in private."

Yuan's meal added fuel and vinegar, and what he said was that she had already reached the point of marriage with Zhuntur, for fear that Shen Li would not be angry enough and would provoke a bigger fire.

"My aunt and sister are afraid that they are dazzled, and that son is just sending me back to the house on the way, where is the intimacy?"

Shen Mo retorted, she couldn't just acquiesce and ignore it, otherwise she might create some rumors in the future.

"Shut up! There is no such thing as a lady at all, what kind of system! ”

Shen Li listened to what Yuan and Shen Yan said, and he was angry.

"Daddy, don't worry, that boy looks like a big family, maybe Daddy will be happy when he sees it."

Shen Yan saw that his father had been angered by his success, and directly added fuel to the fire, thinking of taking advantage of the fire to directly defeat Shen Mo and make her look like a spirit again.

"Come on, put the eldest lady in the firewood room, and you can't let it out without my order!"

After Shen Li finished speaking, a few family members ran in and put Shen Mo up, and his movements were swift.

"Show her to me, if something happens, you are asking!"

Shen Mo stared at Shen Li and the three of them with an indifferent face, suppressing the fire in his heart, planning to find a chance to escape in the future, and now only obedient can he suffer less.

"Daddy, my sister is weak, and she can't stand being locked up in the firewood room!"

Although Shen Yan pleaded for silence, the corners of his mouth showed a smug smile.

"Miss..."

Xiaohuan called softly beside him, not knowing what to do.

Shen Mo knew that she couldn't say anything to Xiaohuan at this time, and if she said more, it would drag her down, so she only gave Xiaohuan a look to reassure her.

Xiaohuan didn't dare to speak anymore, silently hid aside, and read her own young lady's eyes, this is to let her do things carefully, so as not to be involved, because she has to stay outside to take care of Miss Ying and guard the Golden Jade Pavilion.

Seeing Shen Mo being taken away by the family, Yuan and Shen Yan looked at each other and smiled, and the plan was achieved, and finally gave Shen Mo a cruel lesson to the woman.

Shen Mo was pushed into the firewood room, which was so cold that she was excited, there was no place to sit everywhere, and there was a huge mouse running in the corner, and there were countless cockroaches and flying insects on the wall.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, moved the firewood from the soles of his feet behind him, and in order not to catch a cold, he took off his mask and folded it on the ground, and then sat down.

"For Xiaohuan's sake, you have to endure it well, and you won't have to suffer again if you leave the Shen family in the future."

Shen Mo secretly cheered herself up in her heart, Yuan and Shen Yan were just proud for a while, and when she went out, she would definitely take revenge.

The firewood room is two meters high, and the silent little man naturally can't escape here, not to mention that there are a few strong families guarding outside, and he can't get out on his own.

But at this time, who can save herself, Xiaohuan has no scheming at all, and it may not be feasible for her to save herself.

Thinking of this, Shen Mo frowned, I don't know how long I have to be locked up in this firewood room, is it true that I have to wait for Shen Li's old man to open his mind before letting her out, the Yuan family mother and daughter will definitely continue to add fuel and vinegar in order to keep her locked up for a few more days.

In order to conserve his strength, Shen Mo began to meditate.

At this time, Jin Yuting, the little dog saw at the door that the old man asked the eldest lady to lock the eldest lady in the firewood room, and waited until the people dispersed, and then slipped in.

"Sister Xiaohuan ......"

The little dog barked softly outside the door, and he just saw that Sister Xiaohuan had not been arrested, so he found it.

"Puppy, why are you here?"

Xiaohuan heard the sound from the inner room, and immediately ran out, seeing that it was a puppy, and the mood that had just calmed down was aroused again, and his eyes were red and swollen from crying.

"Sister Xiaohuan, don't be afraid, I have a way to save the eldest lady out."

The puppy motioned for Xiaohuan to squat down and whispered in her ear.

"You? How to save? ”

Xiaohuan looked at the little dog in disbelief, he was still a child, how could he bypass those few family members to rescue the young lady who was locked in the firewood room.

But at this time, there was no one else to help her except the little dog, looking at the serious and firm eyes of the little dog, Xiaohuan decided to believe him once.

Seeing that there was no one next to him, Xiaohuan took the puppy directly to the inner room, after all, there are many people now, and you have to be careful when you talk and do things, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"Little dog, how sure are you that you can rescue Miss?"

Xiaohuan moved a stool for the puppy, and sat next to him, wanting to ask the puppy about his plan. It's not feasible to see if it's feasible, after all, it's a very risky thing, and if it fails, it will hurt Miss.

"I can open the door to the firewood room."

The little dog swears that if he has no one to play with him in this Shen Mansion, he will find a piece of wood to carve around. Moreover, his father was a housekeeper, so he was naturally in charge of all the keys to the doors, and when he couldn't sleep at night, he would pick up the big key and copy it, and now he still has the drawings in his room. As long as he finds the key drawings of the firewood room, he can match a key to open the firewood room.

"However, there are six family guards at the door of the firewood house, how can we get them away?"

Xiaohuan believes that the little dog can get the key to the firewood room, so the biggest obstacle is the six families guarding the firewood room, as long as they are opened, the little dog can open the door of the firewood room again, and the young lady can be rescued.

"This... This..."

The little dog scratched his head, he only knew how to match the key, and he couldn't beat those guys.

"Hey... Forget it"

Xiaohuan sighed, he should have thought that the little dog was still a child, how could he pin all his hopes on a child at this time.

"The eldest lady must be hungry now, she has been locked up for a day and has not eaten anything."

The little dog held his cheek and sat at the table with Xiaohuan in a daze, the two of them could not do anything now except wait for the time to pass.

"Those few housekeepers are guarding the door, and they are not even allowed to approach, let alone allow the young lady to deliver food."

Thinking of this, Xiaohuan buried his head in his arms, infinite self-blame poured into his mind, hating that he had always been blessed by Miss, and now that Miss was locked up in the firewood room, she had no choice but to wait.
