Caiyue subconsciously wanted to follow, but Rendong grabbed her wrist and said, "The master asked us to wait for her here, so we'd better not move around. If we make the master unhappy, it will be our fault."

Caiyue looked a little unhappy and said, "Aren't you worried that the master will be in danger?"

Honeysuckle remained calm and said, "We are servants. All we can do is obey the master's orders. You should know that the master doesn't like disobedient people."

Caiyue's face turned ugly. She pulled back her hand and looked in the direction where Hua Shu left with deep eyes.

She didn't understand why her master began to distance himself from her and reuse her after Honeysuckle came. Did she discover something?

Thinking of this, Caiyue bit her lips. With her master's current temper, if she really found out something, she would definitely not leave her alone.

After comforting herself, she calmed down, but she still looked in the direction where Hua Shu left with some worry.

She was really worried that Hua Shu would be in danger. After all, there were too many people in the palace who wanted her life.

Rendong looked at the direction where Hua Shu left with a normal expression. She couldn't say she was worried about Hua Shu. After all, she was not her real master.

But her prince had once ordered her to follow Hua Shu's arrangements and to save her life, so if necessary, she could also use her life to save Hua Shu.

On this side, the man seemed to be afraid that Hua Shu would get lost, so he slowed down from time to time to wait for her.

It was not until the door of a remote palace that the figure stopped and turned his back to Hua Shu.

Hua Shu stopped a few steps away from the man and called out with a serious expression: "Cousin, is that you?"

The man with his back to her frowned and said nothing. Just when Hua Shu thought he would not answer her, he spoke.

"If you want to stay alive, you'd better stay away from Chu Hengzhi."

Hearing the somewhat unfamiliar voice, Hua Shu took two steps back vigilantly, with a few silver needles soaked in poison in his hand.

She asked coldly, "Who are you?"

"You don't have to care who I am. I'm just asking someone to bring you a message." The man's voice was cold and emotionless.

Entrusted by someone?

Hua Shu frowned and asked, "Who asked you to come?"

The man was silent for a while, then turned and looked at her: "I am only responsible for conveying the message, you don't need to ask the rest."

Looking at the silver mask on his face, Hua Shu's brows were furrowed. This person was not the same person she saw yesterday, which meant that he was not her cousin Xiao Juzhu.

Thinking of this, Hua Shu's face turned cold, and murderous intent could not be hidden in his eyes.

She didn't believe that this person deliberately lured her here just to say a few words.

The man ignored her ugly expression and said in a deep voice, "I have delivered your message. Goodbye."

After saying this, the man turned around and disappeared on the spot.

Hua Shu looked at the direction where the man disappeared, her eyes frighteningly cold. She couldn't understand who else, other than her cousin Xiao Juzhu, would send someone to deliver a message to her.

Could it be the prince? Or Hua Huaiyuan?

But if it were really those two, there would be no need to warn me in this way.

After thinking it over, Hua Shu still couldn't figure out who asked this person to deliver the message to her, but she was sure it was definitely not Xiao Juzhu.

Based on her understanding of Xiao Juzhu, if he wanted to remind her, he would only appear in front of her in person instead of sending someone to bring a message to her.

After thinking about it, Hua Shu put away the silver needle and walked back. No matter what this person's purpose was, she would not change her plan.

She will not let go of anyone who deserves to be killed, and she will not forget any revenge that should be taken.

On the way back, when Hua Shu passed a fork in the road, a gentle voice sounded from the side.

"Please stay, Lady Rou."

Hua Shu stopped and turned around to see that it was Chu Yunxiao. A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and then she put on a gentle smile.

"Your Highness."

Chu Yunxiao walked forward and stopped a few steps away from her. He looked at her with a smile and asked, "Why is Concubine Rou here alone? Where are the servants around you?"

Hua Shu reached out and gathered her hair, and said with a smile, "I thought the people around me were too noisy, so I didn't bring it."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "Your Highness, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Although she was not afraid of Chu Yunxiao, they did not have any servants with them. If word got out that they were alone, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble. It would be better for her to leave as soon as possible.

Hua Shu just turned around when Chu Yunxiao called her, "Don't worry, Noble Rou, no one will come here for a while."

After he finished speaking, he walked up to Hua Shu and said with a smile, "I just came out of Cheng Huan Palace. She told me everything you said to my mother."

Hua Shu looked up at him with a smile and asked, "So Your Highness came here to find me on purpose."

Chu Yunxiao nodded and did not hide the fact that when he went to pay his respects to his mother, he wanted her to find a way to get Hua Shu to his side.

However, he never expected that his mother had told him first that Hua Shu wanted to cooperate with her.

Therefore, after leaving Chenghuan Palace, he asked someone to find out where Hua Shu was. When he heard that she came here alone, he rushed over.

Hua Shu's lips curled up into a smile: "Third Prince came to see me, but is there anything you want to tell me?"

Chu Yunxiao looked at her with a gentle smile on his face: "Rou Guiren is a smart person. The fact that you can find my mother shows that you already know your situation in the palace. Since you choose to cooperate with my mother, why not continue the cooperation?"

Hua Shu tried hard not to laugh out loud. He was a good talker, but it was a pity that she already had a better choice, otherwise Chu Yunxiao would also be a good sharp weapon.

Putting away her thoughts, she smiled and said, "I have already told Concubine Hui everything I should say. As for whether we can continue to cooperate, let's talk about it later."

After saying that, she smiled faintly, then walked past Chu Yunxiao and disappeared at the fork in the road.

Chu Yunxiao looked away until her back disappeared. He was not surprised by Hua Shu's answer.

On the contrary, if she agreed immediately, he would not let his mother cooperate with her.

After all, people who are a little scheming won't show their emotions on their faces.

After thinking about it, Chu Yunxiao curled his lips into a faint smile and walked out.

After they left, the masked man who had left appeared where Chu Yunxiao had just stood.

He didn't hear their conversation, but he saw the smiles on both of their faces.

This made him suspect that Hua Shu was Chu Yunxiao's person, but when he thought about it carefully, there seemed to be no connection between them.

After much thought, the masked man decided to tell his master about this.

After thinking about it, he was about to turn around when a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "The message has been delivered."

The masked man turned around, and when he saw who it was, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, I have delivered the message."
