Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 241 The Dark Moonlight in My Heart (1)
"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince's bedroom is just ahead," Awu reported to Xiaoxiao, her head bowed.
Xiao Xiao looked up at the magnificent palace before her, a stark contrast to the shabby and dilapidated cold palace she had previously witnessed.
Even the guards at the gate were all burly and handsome.
When Steward Wu saw Xiaoxiao arrive, he quickly came forward to greet her, "What brings Your Highness here?"
Xiao Xiao glanced sideways at Steward Wu and retorted loudly, "What, is it that I can't come to the Fourth Prince's bedchamber?"
Xiao Xiao spoke arrogantly, showing no regard for Steward Wu.
Just as Steward Wu was wondering how to respond to Xiao Xiao's words, Chu Yunhe's clear and indifferent voice came from behind the door, "So it's the Ninth Prince."
The man stood under the eaves, his clear black and white eyes revealing no joy, but rather undisguised annoyance.
Although Xiaoxiao felt a little upset, she suppressed her emotions and handed the box she had prepared earlier to Chu Yunhe.
Chu Yunhe didn't take it. Instead, he stared at the box and asked Xiaoxiao calmly, "What does Your Highness mean by this?"
Xiao Xiao's previously calm face seemed to be completely irritated by Chu Yunhe's words. She threw the box to the steward Wu beside her and cursed, "Your Majesty, I brought you a gift with good intentions. Take it or leave it. I don't care to give it to you. Awu, let's go."
Chu Yunhe watched Xiaoxiao leave in a fit of rage, but his emotions didn't change much. Instead, he told Steward Wu to put the box away and return it to Xiaoxiao later.
Xiao Xiao walked along, her mind uneasy. She wondered if Chu Yunhe had opened the box and looked at it, and whether he would change his opinion of her.
Just as I reached the corner, because I was distracted, I accidentally bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." Xiao Xiao looked up and met Shen She's smiling face.
Shen She lowered his eyes and looked over, his long, narrow phoenix eyes looking at Xiao Xiao with a mischievous glint in them. "Greetings, Your Highness."
Shen She spoke politely, but his movements remained unchanged. He simply nodded and then smiled at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao, who was initially a little embarrassed and annoyed, became even angrier when she saw Shen She's shameless behavior. "Weren't you sick and unable to attend court? How come you're still alive? I thought you were dead."
Shen She lifted his eyelids, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Your Highness didn't want me to be found dead last night, how come you're willing to do it today?"
Shen She is truly shameless; he speaks such private matters so casually, without any regard for the occasion.
Upon hearing this, the palace servants around the two immediately became extremely busy.
Xiao Xiao's face burned bright red, feeling that Shen She was utterly despicable. "I'm not talking to you anymore."
Just as Xiao Xiao was about to turn and leave, Shen She grabbed her arm. "Is the princess angry with me?"
Xiao Xiao's face flushed red as she tugged at her other sleeve and punched Shen She, yelling, "Who said I was angry? I'm not angry at all! Why are you pulling me like that?"
Shen She was strong, and Xiao Xiao couldn't pull him away, so she accidentally twisted her ankle.
Xiaoxiao is sensitive to pain; she was sweating profusely from the pain as soon as she sprained her ankle.
Shen She also let go of Xiao Xiao's sleeve and helped her sit on the stone bench next to him.
"Where is the princess injured? Does it hurt?"
Shen She's face instantly showed concern, as if he truly cared deeply about Xiao Xiao's injuries.
This expression was the same one Xiaoxiao had seen when she first met Shen She. On that day, he had also coaxed the Empress Dowager with such earnestness, making the widowed woman beam with joy.
Shen She is a man of deep thoughts, and Xiao Xiao doesn't believe that he is genuinely concerned about her.
Shen She was perfectly fine today, but he deliberately skipped court to embarrass Chu Yunhe, probably to test Chu Yunhe's ambitions from the shadows.
I just came from Chu Yunhe's place. What if Shen She investigates further and discovers what's in that box?
We need to find a way to stall Shen She and prevent him from having time to investigate anything related to Chu Yunhe.
Xiao Xiao's mind raced, and she quickly put on a mournful expression. She glared at Shen She reproachfully and said in a coquettish tone, "My feet are in so much pain right now, and it's all because of you that I got hurt! I'm going to punish you severely."
Shen She raised an eyebrow and glanced at her, asking with a half-smile, "What crime does the princess wish to punish me for?"
Xiao Xiao arrogantly raised her jade hand, tilted her head back and commanded, "Naturally, you should carry me back to Jin Hui Courtyard, and I will spare you."
Although the woman was sitting, she looked at Shen She with an extremely arrogant posture. She extended her slender, fair hand to Shen She, and her fingertips intentionally or unintentionally touched the hem of Shen She's clothes a few times.
Shen She raised the corners of his lips slightly. Such a good opportunity to sneak into the palace was rare, so he had to cooperate well.
"Since the princess has given the order, I have no choice but to obey."
After Shen She finished speaking, he bent down, picked up Xiao Xiao, and strode towards Jin Hui Courtyard.
Xiao Xiao didn't expect Shen She to carry her back, and the smile on her face immediately disappeared. "Shen She, put me down quickly."
Shen She raised an eyebrow, "Is the princess's foot no longer in pain?"
Xiao Xiao blushed and cursed Shen She's shamelessness in her heart, but on the surface she still pretended to be domineering and said fiercely, "I told you to put it down, so put it down. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
A woman's domineering demeanor is like that of a haughty ragdoll cat; she may enjoy being petted, but she'll still scratch you.
It was utterly unreasonable, but Shen She found Xiao Xiao quite amusing. She was clearly ashamed to death, yet she stubbornly refused to say anything. What an interesting little girl.
"That won't do. The princess just said that she would only be pardoned if she returned to Jinhui Courtyard. Naturally, I must send the princess to Jinhui Courtyard." Shen She explained helplessly, ignoring Xiao Xiao's struggles, and still unmovedly sent her to the bed in Jinhui Courtyard.
