The blood-red sunset gradually sank below the horizon, and the carriage carrying Shen Lanxi finally returned to the palace when the last trace of golden light disappeared into the sky.

It will be dark, and the palace gate will be locked.

The little chamberlain who was sent to wait in the imperial study was in a hurry.

In order to prevent people from coming back late, he also specially greeted the silver-armored guards guarding the Suzaku Gate, and asked them to take a leisurely step.

Fortunately, Shen Lanxi came back on time.

Seeing the familiar figure of the driver, the chamberlain hurriedly rushed up to stop the carriage: "Is Shen Chang coming back?" ”

"Yes." Shen Lanxi lifted the car curtain, "Father-in-law has something?" ”

"Uh... The slave maid was sent by General Manager Zhou to understand the situation, and it was no big deal. The chamberlain carefully repeated what the chief steward had told in advance.

The chief manager said that His Majesty did not want people to know that he cared about this matter, so he did not say much.

He couldn't figure out why His Majesty didn't want to.

But the chief manager explained so, and he said so, which is right!

Shen Lanxi didn't see anything wrong.

With a slight bow, she said, "Then I will bother my father-in-law to go back and say that I have returned on time." ”

"Whoa." The chamberlain respectfully responded.

But in his heart, he was miserable.

Time? Shen Chang is afraid that there is some misunderstanding of this word?

It's been an hour since he came out of the imperial study to look for someone!

In other words, Your Majesty's side has been waiting for news for at least an hour!

Let Your Majesty wait an hour...

The little chamberlain couldn't think about it anymore, because he hadn't been serving in the imperial study for a long time, and he hadn't seen such a big scene.

The waiter sighed in his heart, but there was a smile on his face: "Thank you Shen Chang for your compassion, the slave will go back and report the news to the chief manager." ”

After thinking about it, he asked tentatively again: "Shen Chang is going back to pack up, do you want to go to see Your Majesty?" ”

This question was also specially explained by the chief manager.

"Meet Your Majesty?" Shen Lanxi was stunned.

After thinking about it for a while, she smiled: "It's getting late today, I won't disturb Your Majesty's rest, and I'll ask Your Majesty for peace tomorrow morning." ”

"Ahh

He felt that Manager Zhou had this advice, and it was likely that he wanted to invite Shen Chang to visit in the past.

But the chief manager didn't say it directly, and it was inconvenient for him to command indiscriminately.

After hesitating across his face, he could only smile back: "Since Shen Chang has a plan in his heart, the slave and maid will not bother much, and the slave and maid will go back to resume their lives." ”

With that, he saluted and stepped back away.

The carriage started again and drove to the gate of the Frost and Snow Palace.

Boxes of things, with the help of the Silver Armor Guard, were also carried to the Qingzhi Pavilion.

In the pavilion, Lily of the Valley had already prepared hot water for Shen Lanxi to bathe.

But while preparing clothes, she said: "Always here, Zheng Xuanzhi and Bai Meiren have been here today." ”

"Oh?" Shen Lanxi raised his eyebrows.

"The white beauty just came to take a look, it's nothing, and I'll go back when I heard that you weren't there. As for Zheng Xuanshi..."Lily of the Valley frowned slightly, "Although she didn't say it, the slave always felt that she had something on her mind." ”

After a pause, she added, "Moreover, she came twice." ”

"Okay, I see, you go down." Shen Lanxi bowed slightly.

Lily of the valley retreated, and the begonia, which had prepared the petals, just stepped forward: "Always here, you said that Zheng Xuanzhi made this move..."

"It's normal." Shen Lanxi interrupted her worried speculation with a smile, "Yesterday I pulled her to be a witness for me, and today, of course, she wants to come to see me." ”
