Chapter 2653 Prime Minister Jin is not a stepping stone
In front of Mount Tai, Lu Shenyuan naturally wouldn't say much, but he still insisted on personally sending Shi Li to the carriage, and then politely said goodbye to Prime Minister Shi.
Prime Minister Shi really didn't want to pay attention to this person, but there were still a few guards standing at the palace gate, so he could only nod coldly, then got into the carriage without looking back and told the coachman to set off.
In the carriage, the father and daughter looked at each other in silence.
After a long while, Prime Minister Shi sighed and said, "Have you decided to marry him?"
"Well, it's him."
Although Shi Li was generous, she was still a little embarrassed as a girl to say whether she liked or not in front of her father, so she just expressed her wishes implicitly.
Prime Minister Shi had expected this result and sighed again, "He... never mind, but he will have to go to the northwest in the future. Do you want to suffer with him?"
This was one point that Prime Minister Shi was always dissatisfied with about Lu Shenyuan. He really didn't want to see his daughter marrying far away in such a remote place.
Shi Li looked at her old father quietly. During these years without her mother, it was really her old father who took care of his daughter and brought her up little by little, making her rich and prosperous. Even though she had physical disabilities, no one in the entire capital dared to look down on her.
"Father, I won't stay in the Northwest for long in the future. I will return to Beijing and live there for three to five months every year." Shi Li's heart softened. She knew that her old father couldn't bear to leave her, so she made up her mind.
It was the old father's turn to be surprised, "You told Lu Shenyuan this?!"
"He said that I don't have to go to the northwest with him, and I can live in the capital." Shi Li thought of Lu Shenyuan's appearance just now and couldn't help but smile, "But I thought that it's not reasonable for a couple to always live apart, but it's reasonable to return to the capital for a short stay every year."
Finally, Prime Minister Shi felt a little more satisfied with Lu Shenyuan in his heart.
Judging from this incident, at least he loves his daughter, and her future life will not be too difficult.
During this period, Prime Minister Shi gradually changed his original ideas.
Instead of looking for a son-in-law and hoping that he will be good to your daughter all his life, it is better to cultivate someone of your own to be your daughter's solid backing, who can still support your daughter even after you are gone.
He had overthought it before, thinking that the bastard's son would be too powerful to bully Shi Li, but looking at Shi Nian and Shi Jiao's current condition, it is not impossible to train them into talented people.
The next day was the day when Princess Chaoxia had invited everyone to go outing and enjoy the spring.
Shi Li got up early in the morning and dressed up. She changed into a yellow top and green skirt with fresh flowers and butterflies embroidered on the hem. She looked gentle, fresh and particularly beautiful.
Liushui helped Shili comb her hair, stepped back and looked at her carefully, then took out two silk handkerchiefs and handed them to Shili solemnly, "The wind is strong in spring, so please carry a handkerchief with you, young lady."
Shi Li nodded and put the handkerchief away, then unconsciously touched the bracelet on her wrist.
On her slender white wrist, she wore a gold bracelet with intricate and exquisite workmanship. The bracelet was inlaid with light-colored gemstones, which was low-key and beautiful.
The location for this outing was set at a mountain villa in the suburbs of Beijing, which is also a property owned by Princess Chaoxia.
Her deceased parents left her a lot of wealth and even property. As long as she didn't do anything stupid, she could live a comfortable life.
Shi Li took a carriage to the villa. As soon as she got off the carriage, she smelled a fresh fragrance of flowers and plants, which made her mood unconsciously better.
Then he saw Princess Chaoxia hurriedly walking out of the villa, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the person following her, and his brows were still furrowed.
Although Liu Xiyan was locked in the woodshed and nearly died last time, she managed to survive with her tenacious vitality.
After she recovered, she was forgiven by Princess Chaoxia because of her ability to style her hair beautifully. Gradually, she even gained her trust and became a first-class maid who stayed by her side every day.
"Miss Shi, what happened?" Princess Zhaoxia had long forgotten that Liu Xiyan had offended Shi Li before. Seeing that she had been silent, she asked in confusion.
Shi Li turned her gaze back to Princess Zhaoxia, looked at her face, and shook her head lightly, "It's okay, let's go in."
Many noble ladies from the capital were invited, and some even invited their brothers to join them, making the scene very lively.
Shi Li saw that almost all of them looked familiar, so he let down his guard a little. He let Princess Chaoxia go and greet others, and then he enjoyed the scenery of the villa alone.
Some noble ladies who had a good relationship with her came over one after another to greet her and sincerely congratulated her on finding a good husband.
The fact that she openly challenged the princess of the Feather Clan in the hall had already spread throughout the capital.
But at that time the atmosphere was open, and the noble ladies all thought she was very courageous and did not mind her being ignored.
Of course, this is also closely related to the fact that Shi Li is the daughter of the prime minister.
