If it were just malicious acts like before, it would be better, but this blatantly shameless behavior is truly disgusting.

It seems that such a shameless person should be treated with shameless behavior.

Shen Jiaojiao stepped forward and said to Zhao Ping'an, "Lord Zhao, I remember you used to be an official. It's a pity that you've fallen to this state. How about this, I have an estate in the suburbs that happens to be short of people. Why don't you come with me there and be a manager?"

Zhao Ping'an remained unmoved. His reputation was already ruined. The Crown Princess had helped the rebellious daughter in the past, and this time she was definitely trying to get rid of him before dealing with him.

I won't fall for her tricks!

A little kid like you, trying to play tricks on me? Humph!

He lazily rolled over.

Zhao Ruyue looked at Shen Jiaojiao with some confusion.

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head at her and continued, "Oh dear! To be honest, my estate in the suburbs is dedicated to taking in these poor, homeless people. It's a good deed that will be remembered for generations to come, and His Majesty also approves of it."

Zhao Ping'an pricked up his ears to eavesdrop. He had heard that this manor was real, and it was indeed the Crown Princess's manor.

If I were to go there to do some work, wouldn't that be a way to get back into the Emperor's sights?

He had his eyes closed, and his eyeballs kept rolling around.

As the Crown Princess, she wouldn't lie to me in front of so many people, would she?

Besides, I was an official back then, and I had seen a lot of things; I'd experienced more than she had.

"Did you just say you wanted me to go over there and be in charge?" Zhao Ping'an asked, resting his chin on his hand with a hint of anticipation.

Zhao Ruyue frowned. This scumbag doesn't deserve her at all! She looked at Shen Jiaojiao, her eyes full of disapproval.

Shen Jiaojiao winked at her reassuringly, then gave Zhao Ping'an a strange smile.
