After coming out of the Shadow Pavilion, Shen Liuli's face didn't look good.
I originally thought that I learned about Nangu Ye from Jun Shengze's mouth.
But she never expected that there was a powerful hidden island hidden behind Nangu Ye.
Could it be that the reason why Shen Yurou and Nangu Ye disappeared together was because they were taken away by people from Hidden Island?
Thinking of this, Shen Liuli frowned even more.
Because with her current ability, she can't even bring down the Queen and the Shen family, so how can she talk about shaking the big tree of Hidden Island?
Shen Liuli shook his head and put the question behind him, then suddenly thought of Jun Beichen.
This time, her only gain was learning that Jun Beichen was also investigating Zhao Yunlan.
Does this mean that Jun Beichen also has issues with Zhao Yunlan?
Shen Liuli thought about the conversation between Zhao Yunlan and Jun Beichen that day when she was treating Jun Shengze.
The two were tit for tat, each wanting the other to die.
As the saying goes, the enemy of your enemy is your friend.
Since Jun Beichen also wanted to bring down Zhao Yunlan, she might as well go to him for cooperation.
Just do it!
Shen Liuli immediately changed direction and walked towards Prince Chen's Mansion.
-
The calm and majestic Prince Chen's Mansion is located near the suburbs of the city.
Shen Liuli walked here and almost lost half of her life.
Why would a majestic prince arrange his mansion in a remote place?
Shen Liuli couldn't figure it out.
Before she even got close, the guards guarding the door on both sides drew their swords at her.
"who?"
Shen Liuli took a step back and said softly: "I am Shen Liuli from Shangshu Mansion. I came to see His Highness King Chen to tell me something important."
Upon hearing that she was Shen Liuli, the guard immediately put the sword back into its scabbard.
Shen Sheng explained: "Miss Shen, Your Highness is in retreat, no one is allowed to disturb you!"
"Retreat?"
Shen Liuli suddenly realized.
No wonder Jun Beichen didn't bother him during this period.
It turned out that he had gone into seclusion.
Shen Liuli asked again: "His Royal Highness Chen suddenly went into seclusion, but is he feeling ill?"
The guard shook his head, "Miss Shen, we don't know about His Highness King Chen's situation. It would be more appropriate for you to ask His Highness's personal bodyguard, Ling Qing."
"Yes." Shen Liuli nodded, "In that case, I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, Shen Liuli immediately turned around and left.
Unexpectedly, Jun Beichen went into seclusion by such an unfortunate coincidence.
It seems that we have to wait until he comes out of isolation before discussing cooperation with him.
"Miss Shen!"
After Shen Liuli walked a long way, a voice sounded behind him.
She stopped and turned around to look over.
Then she saw Ling Qing, the guard who was beside Jun Beichen, running towards her in a hurry.
After arriving, Ling Qing said straight to the point: "Miss Shen, His Highness wants to see you!"
"Your Highness wants to see me?"
Ling Qing nodded, "Yes, His Highness wants to see you."
"Isn't he in seclusion?"
"It's true that you are in seclusion, but as soon as you heard that Miss Shen was here, His Highness wanted to see you."
After hearing Ling Qing's explanation, Shen Liuli couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
But soon, she realized something was wrong with her and quickly stopped smiling.
"Okay, take me over to see your Highness."
"Miss Shen, please come this way."
Ling Qing took Shen Liuli into the gate of Prince Chen's Mansion.
When the guards guarding the door saw Shen Liuli walking in, their eyes widened.
You know, they've been guarding the gate here for so many years.
This is the first time I see a woman cross this threshold.
this……
It’s incredible!
Shen Liuli didn't know what these people were thinking.
But as I walked in, I heard a lot of breathing sounds along the way.
After passing through the connected pavilions and pavilions, Shen Liuli came to the backyard of Prince Chen's Mansion.
Ling Qing pushed open a secret door in the backyard and let Shen Liuli in.
"Miss Shen, my Royal Highness is inside, you can see it when you go in."
"Aren't you going in with me?" Shen Liuli stood at the door and couldn't help but ask.
Ling Qing smiled and said: "Your Highness dislikes my talkativeness, so I won't go in."
Shen Liuli: "..."
She glanced at Ling Qing up and down.
I really can’t figure out how this guy with a stern face could be such a talkative person.
But she didn't ask any questions and went straight through the secret door in the backyard.
What comes into view is a quiet and elegant world.
Compared with the calm and majestic Prince Chen's Mansion that we passed just now, the small courtyard here makes people feel more relaxed and happy.
She glanced around and saw Jun Beichen sitting cross-legged on a rock with his back to her.
Shen Liuli walked towards him cautiously, for fear of disturbing him.
Because if you are disturbed in retreat, you may go crazy.
Jun Beichen is a man who is both good and evil, making it difficult for people to see through him. Who knows if he is practicing some evil magic.
"What are you doing sneakily?"
Unexpectedly, before Shen Liuli came closer, Jun Beichen's voice came unexpectedly.
She stayed for a moment.
How could she be called sneaky? She was obviously being cautious.
However, since Jun Beichen was awake, she didn't need to be so careful.
As a result, Shen Liuli stood up straight.
Asked: "Ahem, I heard the guard at the door say that you are in retreat recently?"
"Yes." Jun Beichen nodded lightly.
"How long have you been in seclusion?" Shen Liuli asked again.
"Three days."
"Then have you eaten?"
"……No."
"Are you hungry then?"
"..." Jun Beichen was speechless.
But after a pause, he still answered Shen Liuli's question, "I'm not hungry."
"Well..." Shen Liuli then asked, "Are you thirsty?"
"...Shen Liuli, if you really can't find anything to talk about, you can shut up."
Shen Liuli: "..."
Well, she actually wanted to talk to Jun Beichen about cooperation.
But for some reason, she found it difficult to speak.
It seemed like since when, when she faced Jun Beichen, she was no longer as natural as before.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Liuli said in a far-fetched way: "Ahem, it's not that big of a deal. I just saw that you were working hard in seclusion, so I came to care about you."
"Really, just to care about me?"
When he asked this question, Jun Beichen suddenly stood up from the rock, turned around and approached Shen Liuli.
"You, Shen Liuli, always go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing. If you suddenly come to Prince Chen's Mansion today, you must have something to talk to me about."
"It's nothing, I really just want to care about you." Shen Liuli was still arrogant.
She was still debating whether to cooperate with Jun Beichen or not.
She couldn't figure out this guy's temperament.
I was so afraid of being sold by him that I had to help him count the money.
Thinking of this, Shen Liuli simply chose to play dumb.
"In this case, you are done caring, then I will ask Ling Qing to send you back?"
After saying that, Jun Beichen didn't give Shen Liuli a chance to resist, and spoke directly, "Ling Qing, send--"
Seeing that he seemed to be serious, Shen Liuli immediately became anxious.
Before Jun Beichen could finish speaking, he reached out and covered his mouth.
"Hey, hey, what's the matter with you? I just came here, and you want to drive me away. Is this how you, Jun Beichen, treat guests?"
"I...didn't drive you away."
Jun Beichen's voice suddenly sounded hoarse.
And when he was talking, his wet lips moved up and down, gently brushing Shen Liuli's palm, making her palm feel slightly itchy.
