After escaping with her bestie, she became the white moonlight of the crazy prince

She swallowed all the unfinished words of Shen Chu. She opened her eyes and looked at Xie Ming, with confusion in her pupils.

Let’s go?

Where to go?

Go to the East Palace?

"Minister Shen, the capital has been in turmoil lately. I'm worried something might happen to Chu'er at home. The palace is heavily guarded and will definitely protect Chu'er."

The implication is: I’m afraid you can’t protect Chu’er.

How could Shen Zhong endure this?

He quickly stood up and refused, "Your Highness, don't worry. Chu'er will be fine at home. If anyone wants to do anything to Chu'er, they should step over Shen's body first."

But Xie Ming turned a blind eye, grabbed Shen Chu's wrist, and pulled him out.

Shen Chu finally reacted and realized what Xie Ming meant. She immediately stood still and refused to let Xie Ming pull her forward.

"Your Highness, you do not keep your word."

She stood there, using her other hand to pry off Xie Ming's hand that was gripping her wrist, her voice accusing, "You said you were going to take me home, so what are you doing now?"

Besides, where do the bad guys come from in the capital?

Why didn't she know?

Not to mention that she didn't know, even Shen Zhong didn't know.

When did the bad guys enter the capital?

"Sending you home doesn't mean you won't return to the East Palace."

“…”Playing word games?

"Your Highness will ascend the throne in the future. It's not good to lie casually in such a position."

Shen Chu still wanted to struggle.

Shen Zhong, who was standing behind Shen Chu, wanted to rush over and snatch the person away, but considering that the other party was the prince, he did not dare to step forward.

Xie Ming was about to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Yun Shu, who was standing outside the mansion, suddenly came in, bowed slightly, and leaned over to whisper something in Xie Ming's ear.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Ming's face became even uglier.

Shen Chu could feel the force on her wrist increasing, causing her some pain.

"Your Highness, it hurts..."

Xie Ming, who had been distracted by something, immediately let go of his hand when he heard this, a look of panic on his face, "Sorry."

Ever since Shen Chu came back, it seemed like he had heard many "sorry"s from Xie Ming's mouth. Xie Ming never said that before.

Shen Chu rubbed his aching wrist, his face looking a little ugly.

"The identities of the two female corpses have been found."

When Shen Chu lowered his eyes and didn't intend to look at Xie Ming, he suddenly said.

Upon hearing this, Shen Chu immediately raised his head, with shock in his pupils.

No way? So fast?

"She is Censor Liu's daughter."

The censor surnamed Liu?

Censor Liu Taiming?

How could it be him? How dare he touch the relatives of important officials in the court?

Seeing Shen Chu's shock, Xie Ming became more resolute in his thoughts. "He learned that his missing daughter was dead, and he is now interrogating my people in the Dali Temple. The reason why he did this is to throw dirty water on you."

"I died in your coffin. No matter what, Censor Liu will come to the Shangshu Mansion. The Censor, who is also responsible for supervising all officials, is likely to report Shangshu Shen for this matter."

What Xie Ming said made sense, but Shen Chu still wanted to struggle. "So what's the best way now? Hide in His Highness's Eastern Palace forever?"

If Shen Chu is willing, Xie Ming will agree.

But it was obvious that Shen Chu was unwilling.

"I will suppress the news that you are still alive. Until the investigation is complete, you will still be... 'dead'. After the investigation is completed, you can restore your status."

Xie Ming said it easily, but there were so many people present at the time, how could he block it?

The most important thing is that the third prince Xie Xuan also knew about this.

Even if Xie Ming could get others not to speak out, how could he get Xie Xuan to keep this secret?

Judging from the confrontation between the two today, the grudge between them is probably not shallow.

Seeing Shen Chu's hesitation, Xie Ming said firmly, "Trust me."

Xie Ming and Shen Chu did not deliberately lower their voices when talking because there were no outsiders here.

So Shen Zhong and Qiao Ruoxi listened to the entire conversation between the two of them. Although they heard every word, they were still confused.

What do you mean?

Censor Liu's daughter died?

What does it have to do with Chuer?

Why did Chu Er continue to remain in the state of "dead"? She was clearly...

Shen Chu stared at Xie Ming steadily, her gaze gradually becoming resolute. She suddenly turned around to look at Shen Zhong and Qiao Ruoxi, "Daddy and Mommy, I'm afraid Chu'er will have to continue to play the role of a dead person for a while."

-

Shen Chu didn't expect that he would actually take the initiative to go with Xie Ming. After sitting in the carriage with Xie Ming, he felt it was a bit ridiculous.

How could this happen? She was originally determined not to go with Xie Ming, but now she actually took the initiative to go with Xie Ming.

But sitting in the carriage, Shen Chu recalled what Xie Ming said, and his face gradually darkened.

If Xie Ming hadn't deliberately lied to her, Censor Liu would definitely have come to the Shangshu Mansion.

As they are officials in the same court, in order to meet each other in the future, my father will certainly not cause any unpleasantness with the other party and will definitely not refuse Liu Yushi's visit.

Censor Liu dared to come to the Shangshu Mansion, but did he dare to come to the Eastern Palace?

Even if he might hear some rumors, he would never dare to enter the East Palace without permission.

So it is indeed a good idea to use Xie Ming as a protective umbrella, but it is just what he thinks. In fact, Shen Chu is still unwilling to live in the East Palace.

Is she currently in a close relationship with Xie Ming? How could she suddenly move into the Eastern Palace like this?

When she thought of this, Shen Chu reached out and tugged at Xie Ming's clothes, and said in a discussion tone, "Your Highness, do you think it's not a good idea for me to live in the East Palace without any status or position like this?"

When Shen Chu said this, his expression was very calm, as if he was really struggling with this issue.

Hearing her say this, Xie Ming just stared at her and said casually, "Then I'll propose now? Three letters, six ceremonies, and a sedan chair carried by eight people."

It was said extremely simply, as if they were discussing whether to buy a cabbage.

Hearing his words, Shen Chu just felt funny and immediately withdrew the hand that was holding Xie Ming, "Your Highness is really good at joking."

What right does it have for her to marry you when you say she is a weed on the roadside?

Just based on that 88% favorability?

Seeing Shen Chu looking away, Xie Ming's eyes became deep.

She didn't want to.

Xie Ming said in his heart.

After a while, Shen Chu spoke again, "What I mean is, Your Highness, I won't go to the Eastern Palace. Your Highness can just find a remote courtyard to settle me down."

"Of course, if Your Highness is too busy to find me, I can go by myself."

Shen Chu was discussing the feasibility of this matter with Xie Ming.

She thought it was quite reliable.

San'er and Fu Jinnian, both master and servant, are in the capital. If she brings Fuling along, wouldn't it be perfect?

Although she had only been with Fu Jinnian for a few days, because they were both successors to socialism, Shen Chu felt particularly close to him and subconsciously included him in her plans.

"The East Palace is remote."
