Shen Luoxi raised her eyebrows in surprise. The emperor had just left the court at this time. Why did he ask her to come into the palace?
She thought for a moment and then asked: "The emperor only summoned me?"
The porter nodded, "The palace carriage is waiting outside the palace."
Shen Luoxi glanced at Cang Yunxuan out of the corner of his eye, and then met his gaze.
Cang Yunxuan's eyes were cold and scary, "What good thing have you done again?"
Shen Luoxi was not surprised that he would say that. If Cang Yunxuan didn't say anything, she would still find it strange.
After all, Cang Yunxuan would only think the worst of her, and she was used to it.
"It's a pity that the prince guessed wrong this time. I don't know why the emperor summoned me." Shen Luoxi said calmly: "In order to prevent the emperor from waiting impatiently, I will not chat with the prince."
Shen Luoxi turned around to leave, but someone grabbed his hand forcefully.
She staggered a few steps, turned around and looked at Cang Yunxuan with a frown, "What else can you do, Your Majesty?"
This dog man really doesn’t know how to show mercy at all!
Cang Yunxuan said coldly: "I'll take you there."
He didn't give Shen Luoxi a chance to refuse, so he pulled Shen Luoxi and strode towards the gate.
Shen Luoxi's hands hurt from his grip, and she wanted to break away but couldn't.
She frowned and was about to reach out and press Cang Yunxuan's acupuncture points, but Cang Yunxuan seemed to have predicted her movements and was restrained before she could break free.
"I won't make the same mistake a second time."
Shen Luoxi was stunned for a moment, and the two of them walked to the carriage at the door.
The waiting eunuch was stunned for a moment when he saw the two of them coming out together.
It wasn't until the two of them approached that the eunuch whispered: "Your Highness, King Xuan, the emperor has only summoned the princess. It is inconvenient for you to go together."
Cang Yunxuan said calmly: "The princess is timid and wants me to accompany her."
"But your Majesty..."
Before the eunuch could finish speaking, Cang Yunxuan interrupted him, "I know that the emperor will not say anything when I accompany the princess outside the palace."
The eunuch hesitated to speak, but he glanced at him and shut his mouth.
He used his peripheral vision to look at Shen Luoxi, who had no expression on his face but was secretly trying to pull back his hand, and cursed in his heart. Shen Luoxi didn't look like he wanted Cang Yunxuan to accompany him into the palace.
But he is just a little eunuch, he just does his job well.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the gate of the palace.
Shen Luoxi and Cang Yunxuan followed the eunuch quietly. When they were approaching the imperial study, Cang Yunxuan said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "When you see the emperor later, remember to be careful with your words and actions."
Shen Luoxi responded perfunctorily, and when she arrived outside the imperial study room, the eunuch called and led her in, leaving Cang Yunxuan standing outside the door.
"Your Majesty?"
When the eunuch outside the royal study saw that he had no intention of leaving, he called out, and Cang Yunxuan turned around and left with a normal expression.
But he did not leave the palace immediately, but strode towards the harem.
In the imperial study, the emperor was practicing calligraphy. Shen Luoxi stepped forward and saluted: "See you, the emperor."
The emperor made the last stroke and then looked up at her.
"Princess Xuan is here. I have been waiting for you since I came down from the court. Please sit down quickly."
Shen Luoxi smiled and said "yes", and waited for the emperor to sit down before she made any move.
She raised her hand to pour two cups of tea and served them to the emperor respectfully.
The emperor took it, his eyes turned on her face, and he took a sip of tea before speaking, "Princess Xuan, don't be nervous. I declare that you are entering the palace just to talk to you."
"You fell into the water last time. Did Yunxuan take good care of you after you returned?"
Shen Luoxi smiled lightly and said, "Your Majesty is busy with work, so if I don't feel well, please bother Your Majesty. After asking a few questions from Your Majesty, I let Your Majesty go and do his work."
The emperor smiled and said, "Indeed, Yun Xuan is indeed busy with official duties. Even if I ask him to rest, he always refuses."
"Sometimes I don't even know what he is up to, but you are Yunxuan's pillow, so you must know better than me."
He looked at Shen Luoxi, who lowered his eyes and smiled softly.
She is not a fool, the emperor's hint is too obvious, it is difficult for her to pretend to be stupid.
Cang Yunxuan and the emperor were obviously father and son, but they seemed to be wary of each other.
"When the prince is busy, I never wait beside him. I only know that the prince's study is always bright all night long. I guess it must be the emperor who entrusts me with important tasks. The prince does not want to disappoint the emperor, so he takes everything seriously."
Shen Luoxi's words were watertight. They not only showed that he didn't know, but also said good things about Cang Yunxuan. The emperor could not find fault.
The emperor looked at her calmly, with a faint smile on his lips.
"Yunxuan has married a good princess." He said with deep meaning: "I am very happy to see that you and your wife have a deep friendship. I will come to the palace more often in the future to talk to the queen with me."
"I find it very interesting to chat with you."
Shen Luoxi smiled and responded "Yes", lowering his eyes to hide the flash of light in his eyes.
She accompanied the emperor and talked for a long time in the imperial study. It was not until the ministers asked to see him that she got up and left.
The great eunuch beside the emperor personally escorted Shen Luoxi out of the palace. When he arrived at the palace gate, the great eunuch smiled meaningfully and said to her: "The emperor likes the princess very much. The princess is unique in her favor."
Shen Luoxi smiled and said nothing.
While in the imperial study, the emperor had been asking about Cang Yunxuan and the palace on the grounds that he cared about her, but she pretended to be dumbfounded and dealt with it.
Thinking of having to do such a thing in the future, Shen Luoxi felt melancholy. She really didn't want to be a victim!
This father and son are fighting, don't take her with you!
Before saying goodbye to the elder eunuch, Shen Luoxi gave him a heavy bag of silver in a very polite manner. The elder eunuch pretended to shirk a few words and then accepted it with a smile.
"The princess knows etiquette, and the servant knows what to do."
"Then please take care of me, father-in-law." Shen Luoxi smiled.
She watched the eunuch go away, and the smile on her face gradually faded.
If you have to enter the palace frequently in the future, it is always a good idea to make more plans. After all, the eunuch spends much more time serving the emperor than the concubines, and he is better able to guess the holy will.
Shen Luoxi turned around and ran directly into a wall of flesh.
She gritted her teeth in pain, raised her head and saw Cang Yunxuan's cold face. She rubbed her nose and glared at Cang Yunxuan angrily, "Does the prince quietly want to scare people to death?"
Cang Yunxuan looked at her coldly, "Why didn't I realize that you are so reasonable before? You even dared to bribe Eunuch Wei who is next to the emperor. How brave you are."
Shen Luoxi rolled his eyes, "The prince also said that Eunuch Wei is from the emperor, how can I have such great ability?"
"Your Majesty is a martial arts practitioner. I don't believe that Your Majesty didn't hear the conversation between Eunuch Wei and me."
Cang Yunxuan was noncommittal, he had indeed heard it, and he said it just to deceive Shen Luoxi. He didn't expect Shen Luoxi to be so open-minded.
He looked at Shen Luoxi indifferently, and the killing intent flashed through his eyes, "So, how did you tell the emperor about me?"
