Chapter 203: Entering the Palace Again

Shen Shu looked at the king in front of him, who could be called "kind and pleasant", his heart was beating inexplicably, and he hurriedly took two steps back.

She arched her hand towards Chu Yi: "Please also ask Your Highness to tell me who Xiao Qingxue overheard those words who is from the Chengen Mansion?"

She deliberately straightened her voice, and she looked like she was businesslike.

When Chu Yi saw her detached appearance, the smile that had just been evoked instantly froze at the corner of his lips.

He remembered the scene when Shen Shu left that day in Muhua Garden, and cleared his throat: "Don't think about what I said that day." It's not that I'm short of money, it's really ......"

"Your Highness!"

Shen Shu hurriedly interrupted him: "Xiao Qingxue's Yangshou, one day is coming to an end, human life is at stake, please ask Your Highness to tell the little girl as soon as possible, who is hiding behind the scenes of the Chengen Mansion, and the little girl can find a way to save Xiao Qingxue." ”

These words made Chu Yifeng's eyes flash with a hint of surprise: "I heard that the Yunling County Lord has brought Xiao Qingxue back to the Eldest Princess's Mansion, why is her bloodlight disaster still there?" ”

Shen Shu listened to his words no longer continue, and his expression was slightly relieved.

She stood up straight and hurriedly replied: "Yes, Xiao Qingxue's bloodlight disaster has not disappeared yet, and the little girl thinks about it, maybe it should be related to the person she overheard talking that day." ”

Chu Yi saw her suddenly relieved appearance, and asked thoughtfully, "You want to save her?" ”

"Yes." Shen Shu's voice was firm and powerful.

Chu Yi sighed for a few breaths: "This matter is a long story, you go to change your clothes first, and follow me into the palace to see my father, and I will slowly tell you." ”

Hearing the words "enter the palace" and "see my father", Shen Shu's mind instantly sounded an alarm bell.

She immediately remembered what Green Peach had relayed yesterday, what Feiyun had said.

She intuitively thought that Chu Yi was going to pull her to meet the saint for marriage.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you, you and me, no, not in a hurry, I, I ......"

In a hurry, Shen Shu didn't think about how to refuse at all, and even stumbled when she spoke.

Although it was only a few numbers, it taught Chu Yi to grasp the key keenly.

"Your business and mine, you...... How, huh? ”

Shen Shu tightened her hands, didn't dare to raise her eyes, and said: "I go out of the land around me, my behavior is vulgar and reckless, I don't understand the rules of the capital, and I don't understand the sophistication of people. Moreover, the acquaintance with His Royal Highness is still shallow, and it is not a good match for His Highness, so I hope His Highness will think twice. ”

Saying these words in one breath, Shen Shu could no longer suppress the panic in her heart, and even her slightly drooping eyelashes trembled a little.

Chu Yi looked at her face and suddenly asked, "Are you angry?" ”

Shen Shu: "...... No. ”

Chu Yi's eyes were slightly relaxed: "Then you are afraid?" ”

"Of course not."

"Then why are your fingertips trembling?"

"Trembling? I didn't ......" Before Shen Shu's words fell, he felt that his right hand hidden in the cuff trembled even more fiercely.

The word "no" was blocked by her throat, and she couldn't say anything.

Chu Yi's eyes were slightly gloomy: "You still said that you are not afraid of me." ”

He took a step forward, as if to confirm this conclusion.

Shen Shu subconsciously retreated half a step.

To avoid his scrutiny, she leaned slightly sideways.

However, because of this action, the red cloud on her cheeks and the tips of her ears that was about to drip blood was exposed to Chu Yi's eyes.

Chu Yi, whose face was cold, paused slightly.

His gaze was fixed on the blush on the tip of Shen Shu's ear, and he didn't know how long he looked at it, and his eyes suddenly became stained with a smile.

It turns out that she can also be shy.

The frosty coldness on Chu Yi's face faded.

He jerked half a step forward and opened his mouth to say something.

But his eyes swept over Shen Shu's slightly trembling shoulders, his throat rolled, and he swallowed the words.

There is no hurry.

Take it easy.

Chu Yi tightened the corners of his lips slightly hooked, and his voice returned to his usual coldness and seriousness: "Since you're not afraid of me, don't think about it." This time I brought the girl into the palace, not for you and me. It's an errand given to me by my father, and I need the girl's side to help me with one or two. As for...... The girl wants to know who the pair of master and servant of the Cheng'en Mansion is, and she can see it if she doesn't enter the palace, so I'll show it to you then. ”

When Shen Shu heard this, she raised her eyes suspiciously.

I saw that King Yi's expression was majestic and indifferent-

She finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in response.

*

Half an hour later.

Shen Shu, who was dressed as a little eunuch, followed Chu Yi, who had changed into a python robe, and walked into the Vermilion Bird Gate.

said that they wanted to face the saint, but when they walked to the front of the Taiji Hall to ask for a meeting, they were told by Zhou Jinxi: "The saint was late last night to correct the recital, and he has not gotten up yet. ”

Chu Yi bowed his head, directly took Shen Shu, bypassed the Taiji Palace, and walked towards the palace group in a remote place on the side.

Because today is Mu Xiu, there is almost no one walking around in the previous dynasty.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Chu Yi took Shen Shu directly into front of a remote palace.

The vermilion gate of the palace is locked and guarded by forbidden troops.

As soon as he saw Chu Yi, the forbidden army guarding the door saluted and hurriedly opened the gate.

Shen Shu followed behind Chu Yi in confusion.

This palace is just a small and boxy courtyard.

It is surrounded by side rooms one after another, and there seems to be a slight smell of fat powder in the air.

It looks like a palace where the palace maids live.

"Squeak......

Chu Yi pushed open the door of a wing room on the west side, and said in a deep voice: "This place is the palace maid room where the emperor drugged his father in the Taiji Hall that day. ”

Shen Shu's expression was grim, and he knew what King Yi meant by "see".

She has always been extremely sensitive to the smell of medicine, and the dead palace maid was the one who poisoned the emperor in the Taiji Palace-

King Yi brought her here to find medicine.

Shen Shu knew that the stakes were very high, so she walked into the wing room according to her words and walked around the room.

The layout of the whole wing room is no different from that of an ordinary maidservant.

This palace maid should not have a low status, so she lives in a single room.

There is a bed against the wall, and on the side of the bed is a wooden box containing clothes and baggage.

A table, a chair and a cabinet stood on the wall facing the window.

On the shelf in the corner of the door were copper basins, toiletries, and small wooden buckets for water.

Probably because the door has not been opened for ventilation for many days, there is a faint musty smell in the room, mixed with a slight smell.

Other than that, there was not the slightest smell of medicine or poisonous weeds.

Shen Shu finally looked around, and it was difficult to hide the disappointment in her eyes.

Seeing this, Chu Yi said softly: "This palace maid has been in the palace for more than thirty years, and she has never made the slightest mistake, and she can be the master of the Taiji Palace, thinking about it, her mind must be extremely meticulous, even if she can't find anything, it is really normal." ”

Shen Shu nodded when she heard this.

She was about to open her mouth to tell Chu Yi her conclusion.

Cold, the corner of his eye swept over the wall behind the basin rackβ€”

Her apricot eyes narrowed slightly, and she turned and strode towards the basin shelf.
