I didn't become a princess today

Chapter 382
After the birthday banquet was over, Father Lin, Lin Luo and Duan Qian were all taken away by Chu Xu, and the families of Lin's and Duan's families were temporarily detained in Yuehua Palace.

Shen Yuan watched Wei Yan follow Chu Xu and walked past her without looking sideways, her peach blossom eyes gradually dimmed.

Be patient, the time is not yet.

Chu Xu has a strong desire to control Wei Yan, if he sees that Wei Yan is out of control, Wei Yan's life will not be easy in the future.

And it's not appropriate for Chu Xu to pay too much attention to her now.

Shen Yuan knelt on the ground, sending Chu Xu away respectfully like everyone else, where no one saw, her dark eyes seemed to be rolled up in a dark storm.

The left hand was clenched tightly, the nails pressed against the scar on the palm, and the slightly raised touch pulled back Shen Yuan's sanity.

Shen Yuan took a deep breath, and heard the familiar footsteps slowly moving away from her, as if all the strength in her body had been removed.

Afterwards, Chu Xiu arranged all the people from the Lin Mansion and Duan Mansion in the side hall, except for Shen Yuan, "My princess's personal maid happened to be sick today, and no one was around to wait and chat. My princess and Mrs. Lin Miss is quite hit-and-miss, let Miss Lin take care of this princess and go back to rest."

Mrs. Lin came out in time, and Fushen said to Chu Xiu: "Princess, my Lin Yuan has been clumsy since she was a child. Wife come."

"No, the princess wants Lin Yuan. Don't worry, Mrs. Lin, the princess will not make things difficult for her. After she finishes her work, the princess will ask someone to send her out unscathed." Chu Xiu said forcefully.

Mrs. Lin was embarrassed and wanted to persuade her, but Shen Yuan beside her said excitedly: "Will the princess take me to play together?"

"Yes." Chu Xiu looked harmless to humans and animals, who knows how to pretend or act, and she can also accompany Shen Yuan to the end if she pretends to be stupid.

Both of them knew each other's true colors, but both chose to use this method to test each other's bottom line.

"But if you don't do me any favors, I don't want to go with you." Shen Yuan blinked her eyes and said innocently.

"Then what benefits do you want?" Chu Xiu sneered.

Shen Yuan thought for a while, then lowered her eyes and muttered: "I haven't thought about it yet, I'll tell the princess when I think about it."

Chu Xiu thought to herself, the imperial concubine's ambitions are still as big as ever.

"it is good."

Chu Xiu took Shen Yuan away alone, and Mrs. Lin felt uneasy, but Lin Luo and Father Lin were also taken away by Chu Xu, and she didn't even have anyone to discuss with.

Chu Xiu brought Shen Yuan into the inner hall, asked the maid to bring in a basin of water, and then waved everyone away.

No one else was there, and the two knew each other so well that there was no point in pretending.

"Do you want to wash your face?" Chu Xiu took a cloth towel, walked to the basin, wet the cloth, and asked.

The stupidity that was intentionally shown on Shen Yuan's face was also put away at this moment, and her narrow eyes were like the lake water in the cold pool under the abyss, icy cold, but calm on the surface, "No, anyway, I have to go out like this later."

"It's not good to have so much rouge on your face." Chu Xiu said with a smile.

Shen Yuan raised her eyes slightly, her tone was a little low, "Compared to seeing Wei Yan but being unable to take him away, this is uncomfortable but it's not even superficial."

Finally getting to the point, Shen Yuan said bluntly: "I want to know, is the relationship between you and me a stranger or an enemy?"

Chu Xiu was not surprised that Shen Yuan would directly ask about this matter. She had already prepared and said, "It can be a stranger, an enemy, or a friend. The right to choose this time is yours, Shizifei."

Shen Yuan remained calm and her tone was indifferent, "What do you want?"

With a straight expression on her face, Chu Xiu said, "I won't stop you from taking the Shizi away from my brother, even if you have difficulties, if there is anything I can help, just ask. "

"However, I want you to enter the court with a new identity as an official, I want you to bow down to my brother, and I want you to serve Nanjiang until the country is peaceful and the people are safe."

Chu Xiu's words seemed to linger in the inner hall, echoing in Shen Yuan's ears over and over again, meeting Chu Xiu's eyes, Shen Yuan knew that Chu Xiu was serious.

Shen Yuan was silent for a long time, then sneered suddenly, her eyes were red, as if she had heard some big joke.

"Chu Xu hurt Wei Yan like that, you want me to bow down to him and do my best for him?"

"I dared to assassinate him three months ago, do you think I dare not now?"

"And even without you, I can still bring Wei Yan back to Daming!"

Chu Xiu's expression was calm. Naturally, she would not make such a request to Shen Yuan when she didn't have any bargaining chips, "Take him back, and he will only be able to live like Xiao Nanshan in the future."

There was pain in Shen Yuan's chest. She didn't know what Wei Yan's future would be like. He was refined into a medicine man. No one in the world could heal him, not even his master.

"The process of refining medicine has always been recorded in the book "Southern Border Secret Art". This book has been handed down from the first king of Southern Border to my imperial brother. My imperial brother knew A large part of the reason why I chose to become the King of Southern Border is because of this book."

"There are many kinds of evil methods and cunning ways recorded in the secret art of southern border, and it may also include methods to restore the son to normal. But this book is now in the hands of my emperor brother, and only he knows where it is hidden. If you To kill him is to cut off the last ray of hope."

Chu Xiu raised her foot and approached Shen Yuan, raised her hand and hooked a strand of long hair behind Shen Yuan's ear, leaned slightly and whispered in her ear: "There is no undercover agent who can get closer to Chu Xu than me, If you want the secret art of southern border, you can only rely on me to find it for you."

She is a meticulous worker, and in order to achieve her own goals, she will use her abilities to the maximum.

Shen Yuan raised her head and faced Chu Xiu face to face. She clearly knew what Chu Xiu looked like under the human skin mask.

Shen Yuan took a few steps back, distanced herself from Chu Xiu, closed her eyes slightly and said, "I will give you an answer within five days, and similarly, within these five days, I also hope that Princess Chu Xiu can let you know." I see your sincerity."

Chu Xiu raised a hearty smile and said, "Of course."

Whether it is Shen Yuan or Chu Xiu, they don't want to easily become enemies with each other.

"Okay, this princess doesn't need you anymore. Somebody, invite Miss Lin back." Chu Xiu shouted to the outside.

Soon a maid came and led Shen Yuan out.

Before Shen Yuan left, she finally couldn't help but look back at Chu Xiu. Through the bead curtain, she saw Chu Xiu standing by the window, alone.

Obviously before, she and Wei Su Zhen Su were almost inseparable...
