Cang Yunxuan remained silent, but Ning Yanran could see that he had listened to her words.
It would be a great good thing for her if she could drive Xiao Yueze away from Shen Luoxi.
Shen Luoxi was already difficult to deal with, and adding Xiao Yueze into the mix was even more difficult.
So she had to separate the two and deal with them one by one, which was easier than dealing with them both together.
Ning Yanran looked at Cang Yunxuan's side face, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
…
The next day, as soon as Shen Luoxi got up to wash up, Cang Yunxuan came.
She raised an eyebrow when she saw Cang Yunxuan, "The prince came so early, but he has already been found?"
Cang Yunxuan did not answer, "I have something to say to you, just the two of us."
Shen Luoxi glanced at Xue Yu, who bowed and walked out, just in time to bump into Xiao Yueze who was about to enter the room with breakfast.
She raised her hand to stop Xiao Yueze and lowered her voice and said, "The prince is inside and said he wanted to speak to the princess alone."
"Warm the breakfast first, and then bring it to the princess when the prince comes out."
Xiao Yueze looked coldly at the guards guarding outside the house, and tightened his hands holding the breakfast.
Only Shen Luoxi and Cang Yunxuan were left in the house. Cang Yunxuan asked the guards to close the door so that no one could see what was going on inside.
Shen Luoxi looked at him indifferently, "Your Majesty is so mysterious. It really makes me curious as to why Your Majesty came to me."
"I have found two capable people for you, and I will let them serve you personally from now on." Cang Yunxuan said, "That Xiao Yueze is too reckless, and I don't know how much trouble he will cause you in the future. .”
"You still have a choice before it happens."
Hearing this, Shen Luoxi narrowed his eyes, and then sneered, "So this is the reason why the prince came to me early in the morning?"
"I would like to ask, how effective are the people that the prince has hired? Are they capable of stopping me when I have a dispute with the prince, or are they capable of telling the prince first when I am in danger?"
Cang Yunxuan frowned, "I am doing this for your own good, so don't be ungrateful!"
Shen Luoxi didn't take it seriously, "Your Majesty, wasn't that why you sent people to secretly protect me earlier?"
"For the prince, they are indeed helpful. After all, they are his people, but for me, can they go through life and death for me?"
Cang Yunxuan's face was ugly, and it took a long time before she managed to say, "Are you going to refuse my kindness?"
"My lord, this is not a good intention, but you want me to die." Shen Luoxi replied coldly, "Although the threat to King Lian is gone, the queen is still in the palace."
"Not only the queen, can the prince guarantee that no one else will want my life? The prince has made many enemies. I don't need to say more."
These words of Shen Luoxi did not save any face for Cang Yunxuan, and Cang Yunxuan was still unable to refute.
Originally, he and King Lian were fighting against each other, and he had the advantage, but Cang Minglang returned to the capital, and the emperor made him the prince. Many people who originally supported him have joined Cang Minglang's camp.
The planning he had been doing seemed like a joke.
Cang Yunxuan clenched her fists and said nothing.
Shen Luoxi glanced at him, "If the prince has finished speaking, the prince can go to work."
"Now we are just establishing the crown prince. The prince still has a chance, so don't waste your time."
Her implication was obvious, that Cang Yunxuan would not have to waste time saying these words to her in the future.
Cang Yunxuan gritted her teeth, "Shen Luoxi, does it have to be him?"
"Is there anyone more loyal than Yue Ze?" Shen Luoxi retorted.
The veins on Cang Yunxuan's forehead bulged. He stood up suddenly and walked away, knocking the tea on the table and spilling it.
Shen Luoxi frowned slightly, and Xiao Yueze hurried in from outside.
"Princess, are you okay?"
Shen Luoxi smiled and shook his head, "I'm fine. Weren't you just listening on the roof?"
Xiao Yueze was not surprised to be discovered by her, and replied calmly: "Although I listened, I still feel uneasy."
"Then did you hear what the prince told me?" Shen Luoxi asked.
Xiao Yueze nodded, "I've seen the two guards brought by the prince, and they didn't notice that I was on the roof at all. It shows that my martial arts are not as good as mine."
"How can you protect the princess with such martial arts?"
Shen Luoxi was noncommittal, "Your Majesty just wants me to replace you so that someone else can monitor me and contain me."
"He is quite dissatisfied with me these days, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it."
Xiao Yueze's face darkened, "Don't worry, Princess, I will protect you."
"I know." Shen Luoxi smiled, "I have to go to the medicine store today, so where is my breakfast?"
Meeting her smiling eyes, Xiao Yueze's heart skipped a beat. His cheeks turned red and he hurriedly lowered his eyes to cover up his panic. "They are outside. I will bring it in for the princess."
Shen Luoxi held up her face and watched him running out of the room with messy steps, her eyebrows softening a lot.
After breakfast, Shen Luoxi took Xiao Yueze to the pharmacy.
As soon as she entered the door, the sharp-eyed shopkeeper saw her and said, "Girl, what a coincidence that you came today! Our boss finally came to check the accounts today, and he has brought all the medicine you asked for earlier!"
Shen Luoxi was taken to the second floor by the shopkeeper. When he looked up, he saw Cang Chenru who was settling accounts.
"Master, our distinguished guest is here!"
Cang Chenru raised his head, met Shen Luoxi's eyes, raised the corner of his mouth, and waved his hand to signal the shopkeeper to go down.
"It's been a long time since I saw the princess. She still looks like the princess."
Shen Luoxi looked at Cang Chenru's expression, "Young Master looks quite haggard. When I came here earlier, I heard the shopkeeper said that Young Master has not been in the shop for a long time, but what happened?"
Cang Chenru smiled, "I did encounter some difficult things. I just finished my work recently."
"These are the medicines that the princess needs. She has been waiting for a long time, so I won't accept her money this time."
Shen Luoxi did not refuse, her eyes turned around his face and stopped at his cheeks.
There's a clear dividing line there and a slight change in skin color.
She narrowed her eyes slightly. She was very familiar with human skin masks.
She didn't pay attention to it before and had no intention of guessing Cang Chenru's identity. Today, she took a closer look and found that there were quite a few flaws.
Cang Chenru's human skin mask seemed to have been put on in a hurry, before he had time to take care of it properly.
She looked away, "Young master, it's really hard work. You have to take care of so many properties, but you also have to deal with family affairs."
"I'm used to it." Cang Chenru showed a little sadness, "I should have a lot of leisure in the future..."
Shen Luoxi's eyes flashed, "It's rare to meet the young master today. After the young master is finished, how about we find a place to sit down and have a cup of tea?"
"The chat between me and the young master was interrupted because of something, but I have been thinking about it."
Cang Chenru had no objection. Anyway, he wanted to help Cang Yunxuan inquire about something.
