Shen Luoxi returned to the palace and strode towards the courtyard, only to see Xiao Yueze standing like a green pine at the door.
Seeing her coming back, Xiao Yueze hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Princess, are you okay?"
When Shen Luoxi heard this, he covered his mouth and chuckled, "I'm just going to the palace, what can happen?"
"I heard that the princess left in a hurry, I thought..."
Xiao Yueze's voice paused for a moment, his eyes fixed on Shen's wrist, "Princess, what's wrong with your hand?"
Shen Luoxi lowered his eyes and found that his wrist was obviously bruised.
Her eyes were slightly cold, and she put down her sleeves calmly, "It's just a minor injury, don't worry about it."
"Expose yourself more deeply. Go back and rest."
After that, she turned around to enter the yard, but Xiao Yueze raised his hand to stop her.
She frowned, "What are you going to do?"
Xiao Yueze took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to Shen Luoxi, with a serious expression: "This is my commonly used medicine for golden sores. Apply some before the princess goes to bed, and the bruises on your hands will be reduced a lot when you wake up tomorrow."
Shen Luoxi was stunned, but she didn't expect Xiao Yueze to give her a bottle of medicine.
She reached out and took it, her eyes flickering. She raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Yueze, and saw that he was hesitant to speak.
"Have something to say?"
Xiao Yueze nodded, "I want to know if the injury on the princess's hand was caused by the prince?"
He looked at Shen Luoxi without blinking, for fear of missing the look on her face.
Shen Luoxi raised his eyebrows, "It's him. I understand what you think, but you don't have to do anything for me. You just need to know that I won't let myself suffer."
Xiao Yueze lowered his eyes, hiding the flash of light in his eyes.
He whispered, "If I were by the princess's side, I would definitely not let her get hurt."
Shen Luoxi smiled and said, "Go back and rest. I have to enter the palace early tomorrow. If you are not energetic, who will protect me?"
Xiao Yueze nodded, "I will go back to rest after the princess enters the room."
Seeing his persistence, Shen Luoxi didn't insist either. Before closing the door, she could still see Xiao Yueze still standing where he was.
She gave Xiao Yueze a meaningful look before slowly closing the door.
The next day, when Shen Luoxi finished washing and walked out of the room, Xiao Yueze happened to put down his breakfast.
"This doesn't look like breakfast made in the kitchen." Shen Luoxi said.
The breakfast in front of me includes vegetables and meat, but it is not like the usual kitchen that only makes bland porridge.
Xiao Yueze said softly: "I made this for the princess when I got up early. I see that the breakfast in the kitchen is just porridge and side dishes, which tastes tasteless."
"The princess's hand is still injured. Eating more meat will help her recover faster."
Shen Luoxi sneered and looked up at him who was at a loss. "It's just a minor injury. You don't need to be so careful. You can just leave it alone and it will heal in two days."
"No!" Xiao Yueze said solemnly: "The princess is so noble, you can't be so casual!"
"Until the princess recovers, I will prepare her daily meals."
Shen Luoxi had no objection. Since she could eat delicious food, why wouldn't she?
She drank the warm minced meat porridge, and her fair face turned rosy due to the heat.
After finishing breakfast, Shen Luoxi's face turned pale pink.
Xiao Yueze breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her satisfied expression. He learned how to make today's breakfast from the kitchen. Fortunately, he could enter the mouth of Shenluo River.
"Breakfast is good. This is the money you have to buy groceries later. If it's not enough, just tell me."
Shen Luoxi took out a bag of silver from the space and handed it to Xiao Yueze. He subconsciously wanted to refuse, but seeing Shen Luoxi's expression, he immediately reached out and took it.
"Okay, let's enter the palace quickly."
"yes."
The carriage quickly arrived at the palace gate, and the eunuch immediately took Shen Luoxi to Changle Palace.
As soon as she entered the hall, a cold gaze fell on her. Her expression did not change, and she stepped forward to salute in front of Concubine Wen.
"See Concubine Wen."
When Concubine Wen saw her, she immediately smiled and said, "Luoxi is here, I was talking about you to Yunxuan just now."
"Have you had breakfast? Come sit next to me."
Shen Luoxi sat obediently next to Concubine Wen, ignoring Cang Yunxuan's gaze that almost turned into a sharp knife.
The medicine she gave Cang Yunxuan was just enough to last until this morning.
Cang Yunxuan couldn't move. Even if he wanted to call the imperial doctor to take a look, he had to worry about Concubine Wen's health, so he must have stayed up all night last night.
Concubine Wen looked at Shen Luoxi tenderly and held her hand without letting go, "Yunxuan and Chenru both told me the matter. Now that I am old and beautiful, I never thought that I could still be pregnant with a dragon seed..."
Shen Luoxi consoled her, "Concubine Wen is still young, so she can naturally give birth to a dragonborn."
"I will take good care of Concubine Wen in the future, and I will definitely be able to give birth to Lin'er safely."
Concubine Wen smiled and touched her belly, "You really have to be extra careful in the first three months. I'm weak, so I'm afraid I may have to trouble you."
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. This is what I should do."
Concubine Wen looked at Shen Luoxi's obedient appearance, her expression became more loving, "You kid, I really like you more and more the more I see you."
"You and Yun Xuan should also hold on tight. When I was your age, Yun Xuan would call me Niang."
Shen Luoxi smiled and said nothing, then quietly changed the topic.
She watched Concubine Wen drink the anti-fetal medicine and chatted with her before walking out of the palace with Cang Yunxuan.
The two of them got into the carriage. As soon as the horse's hooves were raised, Cang Yunxuan's hand grabbed Shen Luoxi's neck.
Shen Luoxi frowned slightly and immediately turned his head to dodge.
"Why did the prince suddenly get angry when he was doing well?" she said coldly.
"You act wantonly, and as a princess, you do something wrong to me and below. Naturally, I want to teach you what the rules are!"
A trace of blood flashed in Cang Yunxuan's eyes, but Shen Luoxi calmly raised his hand to defend himself.
"I won't offend anyone unless they offend me. Haven't you heard of this sentence, Your Majesty?" She smiled coldly, "Now that Your Majesty has done something, how could you not guess that I am a person who will retaliate?"
"I don't owe the prince anything. There is no need to obey your orders."
Cang Yunxuan gritted her teeth and said, "Shen Luoxi, you will never be able to repay what you owe me in your lifetime."
Hearing this, Shen Luoxi looked at him inexplicably, "Your Majesty, you haven't even had a drink, so why did you start talking nonsense?"
"Why don't I help the prince get some sleep, so that he won't be laughed at?"
The two of them were fighting back and forth in the car, causing the carriage to shake.
Xiao Yueze, who was following the carriage, immediately noticed something strange and opened the curtain without thinking.
He frowned, raised the scabbard and hit Cang Yunxuan's hand.
"You are so brave!"
Cang Yunxuan's face darkened, but Xiao Yueze remained calm, "If the prince wants to hurt the princess, I will be the first one not to agree."
He gave Xiao Yueze a vicious look, stood up and got out of the carriage.
Cang Yunxuan got on the guard's horse, and before leaving, she left a message, "Shen Luoxi, if anything happens to my mother and concubine, I will not let you off lightly!"
