After listening to Shen Kite's words, Lin Luo stared at him as if he had been stimulated by something, and he didn't even say anything about Shen Kite's departure from the room.
See...... Your Majesty?
He usually only dares to scold the tyrant Chu Xu in a place where no one is around, this face-to-face meeting the king of Southern Xinjiang, does he still have the life to leave the palace?
β¦β¦
Ah Zhe left someone to keep an eye on the progress of the case in the government office, and finally after a day of watching, he found an unexpected thing.
"Princess Chuxiu went to the government office today, and then our people went to inquire, and Princess Chuxiu asked the government office not to investigate this case again. said that those four gangsters were originally pests in Xuzhou, and someone except for it. Ah Zhe reported the matter to Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan was stunned for a while, she didn't expect that this matter could still involve Chu Xiu.
"She wants to calm things down, I guess it's her or her subordinates who do it." Shen Yuan thought about it, and then ordered, "Tomorrow, I will go to urge the government office to close the case, and it is okay to push a scapegoat out, anyway, I want to clean up this matter from Luo'er." β
"Yes." Ah Zhe led the order to retreat.
In the next few days, the Lin family and the Duan family were preparing to enter the palace, and Lin Luo was even more frightened into nightmares for several days, and his spirit was a little trance.
Shen Yuan also didn't expect that a sentence could scare Lin Luo like this, usually seeing him open and close his mouth to scold Chu Xu, he thought how tough he was.
"It's okay, if the king asks about business, you will say that the last person who makes the most decision is my father, and it has nothing to do with you." Shen Yuan comforted Lin Luo, Lin Luo was in a very bad mood now, and he was tossed like this before the day of entering the palace, "Don't be so afraid, you are the little young master of the Lin Mansion, even in front of the King of Southern Xinjiang, you can't let him handle it at will." β
Lin Luo nodded vigorously, and then pulled his little servant and didn't know where to practice his courage, and called Ah Zhe to accompany him.
Shen Yuan went to Qiu Die, and Cui'e Residence was still as lively as ever, with people coming and going, and there was an endless stream.
Qiu Die took Shen Yuan to her room, Qiu Die fetched water to wipe Shen Yuan's face, the fat powder on her face was wiped off, and the dark blue under her eyes was a little unable to cover it.
"The master hasn't rested for a few days, take care of your body more, if there are too many things, you can hand it over to your subordinates to solve." Qiu Die has always liked Shen Kite's face, and seeing Shen Kite's spoiled like this, not to mention how distressed she was.
"I just can't sleep." Shen Yuan took off her coat and threw herself on Qiu Die's bed with ease.
Qiu Die went to change the spices that soothe the nerves, and went over to unbun Shen Yuan, "Is it a headache again?" β
"Well, this is also something that can't be helped, how can I calm down at the thought of entering the palace and seeing Wei Yan." The scar on the palm of his left hand seemed to still have a scorching temperature, and the smile on the corner of Shen Yuan's lips was a little cold.
Qiu Die was a little worried about Shen Yuan's current state, Shen Yuan's reason has always been tight, and the whole person is hovering between normal and crazy, but there is always a clear boundary between normal and crazy, and that boundary is called Wei Yan.
"I'm fine, I'll sleep for an hour and wake me up in a while." Xu was because of the soothing incense, and Shen Yuan soon became tired.
Qiu Die waited for Shen Yuan to fall asleep, so she helped her take off her shoes and socks and let her rest in bed for a while.

Southern Xinjiang Palace, shooting range.
Chu Xiu sat on a chair paved with tiger skin, looking at the other two men with an unkind face, they were the two patriarchs of the southern Xinjiang tribe, although they were suppressed by Chu Xu's force at the beginning, and they bowed down to their subordinates, but they did not do much in the court.
"Heh, Lord Qi and Lord Ming mean that they want to test their archery skills with this princess, if you win, this princess will play with you for a day?" Chu Xiu asked in a calm voice.
Lord Qi and Lord Ming did not covet Chu Xiu's beauty, but valued her identity and Chu Xu's attitude towards her, "Yes, so I don't know if the princess can give the minister a chance?" β
Chu Xiu thought to herself, if she took off the human skin mask now, she didn't believe that these two people still had the courage to come and think about her.
Chu Xiu pinched her fingertips, which were still covered with thin calluses, which she had left behind by her years of using swords and weapons.
"It's okay to test archery, but this princess doesn't want to hurt her hand, besides, if you two bully a woman, even if you win, it's not shameful to say it."
"What does that princess mean ......"
"I will send a man to compete with you, and if you win him, this princess will be with you for a day today. However, if you lose......" Chu Xiu said, got up from the chair, walked to the railing of the high platform with a somewhat lazy movement, looked at the people who were brought out as targets in the shooting range, and pointed: "If you lose, please trouble the two adults to play with them." β
What Chu Xiu said about playing was to let them go down as moving targets like these criminals for the archers on the high platform to tease.
When Lord Qi and Lord Ming heard Chu Xiu's request, their faces sank, and they were arrogantly shouting just now, but now they both hesitated and fell silent.
Chu Xiu sneered, pinned the long hair that fell to the side of his face, and his eyes were full of mockery, "What, the two adults can't afford to play?" β
"Who said that you can't afford to play, since the princess said so, how dare you not be a courtier!"
Chu Xiu was waiting for this sentence, she whispered a command to the maid next to her, and then the maid hurriedly ran out.
After a while, a dark red figure came up to the high platform, and the faces of Lord Qi and Lord Ming changed a few times, "Chu Yan? β
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "You can start comparing, two adults." β
The waiter in the back presented the bow and arrow, but Lord Qi and Lord Ming refused to accept it, they never thought that Chu Xiu would be able to bring Chu Yan up, you must know that Chu Yan has always been by Chu Xu's side and has never left.
"What, don't compare? If you don't, you will admit defeat. β
Lord Qi and Lord Ming hesitated for a moment, and then asked cautiously, "Is the rule still the same?" β
Chu Xiu was very sure of Wei Yan's archery skills, so he immediately boasted about Haikou, "Of course you have to change, otherwise you will say that this princess is cheating." So from now on, the rule is that if the sum of the two of you shoots is more than Chu Yan alone, the princess will sentence you to win. β
Lord Qi and Lord Ming both breathed a sigh of relief, and they both felt that Chu Xiu, the princess, was stupid, how could the number of shots shot by two people be equal to one person.
"Since the princess is so determined to kneel, the ministers dare not disobey."
"Let's get started." With Chu Xiu's order, the three of them stood on the archery position behind the railing, making preparations.
Chu Xiu turned his head to look at the little sisters who were hiding in the corner and peeping cautiously here, and said with some amusement: "What are you doing hiding so far away, and you don't want you to play." β
Yue Hui is Yue Zhen's daughter, and her relationship with Chu Xiu is also relatively close, she moved to Chu Xiu's side in small steps, and glanced at Wei Yan from time to time, "Princess, does General Chu Yan have a sweetheart?" β
