Shen Luoxi looked around the room. Apart from this note, there were no other traces left in the room.
She picked up the note and took a look at it. Juanxiu's handwriting on it made it clear who it belonged to without having to guess.
Shen Luoxi pondered for a moment, and then there were footsteps outside. She held the note in her palm, looked up and saw Xiao Yueze walking in with breakfast.
"Why did the princess get up so early?"
Xiao Yueze put down his breakfast and walked to her worriedly. Seeing that her face was as normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Luoxi couldn't help but smile, "When I came back yesterday, I told you that I was fine. You didn't believe me?"
Xiao Yueze pursed his lips and shook his head, but the sight of Shen Luoxi's bloodied body lingered in his mind.
As long as he closed his eyes, the sight of Shen Luoxi lying dying in a pool of blood would appear in front of his eyes.
He ran desperately in the direction of Shenluo Creek, but the fire engulfed Shenluo Creek and he could not get close at all.
When Xiao Yueze woke up, his clothes were soaked with cold sweat. After that, he never dared to sleep again and kept wandering outside Shen Luoxi's house.
He sat in front of the door and listened to the steady breathing coming from inside. Only this sound could calm him down.
After sitting there until dawn, he got up and went to the kitchen to make breakfast for Shen Luoxi.
Seeing that he was silent, Shen Luoxi frowned slightly, "You look bad and feel unwell?"
She got out of bed and checked Xiao Yueze's pulse. She breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was just not getting enough rest.
"But are you tired from collecting evidence for me these two days?" Shen Luoxi said softly: "You don't need to serve me these two days. You can have a good rest for two days. Xueyu is here."
Xiao Yueze said without thinking: "I'm fine. I can find evidence to prove the princess' innocence. It's worth the fatigue."
"How does the princess feel now? Do you want to ask Miracle Doctor Situ to take a look?"
Shen Luoxi refused, "It's just some superficial injuries."
She had already used the quick-acting recovery agent, and if she applied it with the scar-removing plaster, the scars would disappear. If she saw Situ Yan, she would still have to deal with it.
"My health is not serious. I want to go out for a walk later, so you can come with me." Shen Luoxi said.
Xiao Yueze agreed, brought the cold medicinal porridge to her, and watched her drink it all.
After cleaning up briefly, the two walked out of the palace.
Shen Luoxi did not take the carriage, but walked slowly to the teahouse not far from the palace.
She walked straight to the second floor and soon found Princess Lian in disguise in the corner.
Princess Lian didn't even apply makeup, and the haggard look on her face was obvious.
"Sister, please sit down quickly."
Shen Luoxi looked at her worriedly, "Sister, why is your face getting worse and worse?"
A wry smile appeared on Princess Lian's lips, "It's just that I didn't have a good rest. Let's not talk about that. My sister read the note and should know why I came to see her today."
Shen Luoxi was noncommittal. She looked at Princess Lian and asked, "Does Your Highness know that my sister is here to see me?"
"I don't know." Princess Lian said calmly: "So my time is limited. I hope my sister can help me intercede with His Highness Prince Xuan so that the Emperor will not overly anger the Queen."
Shen Luoxi lowered his eyes, "Sister, I don't need to repeat what happened that day. The emperor's wishes cannot be controlled by the prince."
"The Emperor not only lost Concubine Wen, but also lost a prince. My sister should know how serious this matter is."
Princess Lian's face turned pale, and she spoke after a long time: "I understand what my sister means, but right now I have no other way. If the queen is not here, who else can protect the prince?"
"For the sake of the prince, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Luoxi interrupted her.
"Sister, yesterday at Qianqing Palace, the prince and I didn't say anything. The emperor made the decision for all the results."
"Now that the Queen is only grounded, the Emperor is already showing mercy to her because of the long-term relationship between husband and wife."
Her tone was unhurried, blocking all Princess Lian's words.
The tea table fell into silence, and Princess Lian could only stand up with a wry smile, "It's me who has made things difficult for my sister. Let me just pretend that I haven't been here today."
When Shen Luoxi saw that she was about to leave, he didn't stop her. He just said lightly, "Sister, be careful when you go back."
Princess Lian said softly, "Yes, sister, don't worry, those who are following you today are all my servants."
After that, she walked downstairs.
Shen Luoxi watched her figure disappear down the stairs, drank all the tea in the cup before standing up.
Xiao Yueze saw that his face was gloomy, so he asked softly: "Princess, do you want to help Princess Lian?"
"She is the only one I want to help." Shen Luoxi replied calmly, "Nowadays, Prince Lian's palace is in turmoil. No one can say how Prince Lian will treat his sister."
"She is the only good person among the jackals, tigers and leopards. I will help her as long as she is willing."
Xiao Yueze lowered his eyes and his eyes flashed.
The two of them walked downstairs, preparing to walk slowly back to the palace, but as soon as they walked out of the tea house, Shen Luoxi stopped in his tracks at the luxurious carriage parked outside the door.
King Lian was talking to Princess Lian. When he glanced at Shenluoxi with his peripheral vision, he glanced at Princess Lian and instantly understood what had happened.
He smiled coldly, "No wonder you came to this teahouse. It turns out you are here to see Princess Xuan!"
"Since I have met you, why don't you tell me what you were talking about just now!"
Shen Luoxi glanced at Princess Lian, and when she saw her eyes red, she knew that King Lian must have said many unpleasant things.
King Lian stared at her fiercely, but received no response. He suddenly turned red with anger, "I am talking to you, but you pretend not to hear me. You clearly don't take me seriously!"
"Do you think that since the queen is grounded, I will have no one to support me, and you will look down on me!"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he raised his head to hit Shenluoxi.
But before his hand could fall, he was caught by someone. He turned around and looked up, and met Xiao Yueze's cold eyes.
"What does His Highness King Lian want to do in public?" He said coldly: "Now that the Queen is grounded, if His Highness King Lian makes trouble again, he will ultimately harm others and himself."
King Lian was stunned for a moment, and after a moment he came back to his senses and understood what Xiao Yueze meant. Xiao Yueze was threatening himself with his mother!
He forcefully shook off Xiao Yueze's hand, but Xiao Yueze held his hand tightly like an iron vice.
"Presumptuous! Let me go quickly!"
Princess Lian ignored the pain in her heart and hurriedly stepped forward to stop King Lian.
"Your Majesty, let's go back to the mansion quickly. The Queen is in a difficult situation now. Let's go back and make long-term plans..."
As soon as she finished speaking, a slap hit her face hard.
They stood in front of the teahouse and were eye-catching. When they saw King Lian beating Princess Lian, the passers-by were startled.
"Bitch! You don't stand with me and you still speak for them. Believe it or not, I will divorce you!"
