The two maids widened their eyes and looked at each other in shock.

Although the panic in their eyes was not obvious, it was all seen by Shen Nanxing, who was carefully paying attention to the expressions of the two.

She was suddenly filled with joy, and couldn't stop raising the corners of her mouth.

After a moment, the maid kneeling on the left said, "No..."

But before he could say a word, he was interrupted by Shen Nanxing.

"I never keep liars around me!"

She stared at the two of them intently: "You only have one chance. I advise you to think it over carefully."

For a moment, the only sound in the entire yard was breathing.

A tense atmosphere permeated the small courtyard.

Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the two maids. They stood under Shen Nanxing's gaze for half a minute, and the two of them exchanged glances silently three times.

Finally, they both kowtowed.

"Greetings, Princess. The two of us were indeed sent by the Ninth Thousand Years Old to protect you."

As soon as the two finished speaking, Shen Nanxing's eyes were as bright as the stars, with a smile in her eyes, the corners of her lips raised, and a shallow dimple.

The woman in the dazzling red dress made everything around her look dull.

She hurriedly bent down and helped the two maids up, one in each hand.

"Hey, we're all family, why are you kneeling? Get up!"

He completely forgot that he had just yelled at someone to kneel down.

The two maids were flattered and stood up to express their gratitude repeatedly.

Shen Nanxing was so happy that he almost lost his mind.

I told you to be tough, but if you really didn't care, why did you secretly send people to protect her?

A maidservant opened her mouth several times, wanting to speak but stopping herself. Finally, she held back and explained, "Princess, the Ninth Prince sent the two of us to protect you, not to spy on you. Now that we're here, you're our only master. You can trust us to do what we want."

"We will not tell Nine Thousand Years Old about your affairs, you can rest assured."

Shen Nanxing waved his hand: "Don't worry, what should I worry about? It's okay if he wants to monitor me. You can tell him everything about me, no matter how big or small, anything is fine!"

Two maids:!!!

Shen Nanxing was happy, but then he remembered the important matter: "Please help me make an appointment with him, I have something important to discuss with him!"

The two maids stood there, not reacting for a moment.

This is completely different from what they imagined...

The maid who had spoken earlier hesitated for a long time before she said very embarrassedly: "Princess, we don't have any way to contact the Ninth Thousand Years Old..."

The Ninth Prince asked them to follow Princess Jing, which meant that he had completely handed them over to her. Their actions were completely controlled by her and they did not need to report to him.

So they really couldn't contact Jiu Qian Sui.

Shen Nanxing was dumbfounded: "Didn't you say that you were sent by him to protect me?"

The two maids nodded: "Yes."

"What if I'm in danger and you can't protect me?"

"Don't worry, Princess. Our martial arts are among the best in the entire capital. Ordinary people can't do anything to us." The two maids patted their chests and promised.

"What if I happen to encounter an unusual opponent? What if my life is in danger?"

Shen Nanxing didn't believe it. The people the man sent out couldn't contact him at all!

Who would believe it? She didn't believe it anyway.

The scene fell silent again.

After a long while, the maid who spoke frowned and said, "If it really comes to a life-or-death situation, if your life is in danger, we can contact the Nine Thousand Years Old Man."

"But, you only have one chance. Once you use it, it's gone. You..."

"use!"

Shen Nanxing made a quick decision before she finished speaking.

"This……"

The two maids looked at each other, feeling extremely embarrassed for a moment.

Shen Nanxing glared at them and asked, "Who is your master now?"

"Princess." The two answered very quickly.

"Who should you listen to now?"

"..."

A complicated look flashed in the eyes of the two maids.

Before arranging for them to come to Prince Jing's Mansion, Jiu Qian Sui said that they must be 100% loyal to Princess Jing and protect her well, not even a hair could be lost...

They have to listen to Princess Jing's words. They will listen to whatever Princess Jing says...

The only thing he gave them was a flare and asked them to carry it with them and keep it safe.

She said that if Princess Jing's life was in danger and the two of them were unable to protect her, they would fire this flare and he would appear in the shortest possible time.

Can……

I'm fine now! There's no danger...

But! Jiu Qian Sui also said that he would listen to Princess Jing. Now Princess Jing is their only master...

Princess Jing wanted them to use the only flare now, but what if they encountered a danger they couldn't handle in the future? What would they do?

A maid thought for a moment and tried to persuade him: "Princess, once this flare is used, it won't be there when we really need it in the future..."

"If you need to see the Ninth Prince for something, I'll go to Prince Li's mansion and arrange an appointment with him for you. What do you think?"

"No!"

Shen Nanxing frowned.

Don't think she doesn't know. If she sends someone to Li Wangfu to look for him, he will definitely not see her.

Besides, she really wanted to know how he would react if he knew that her life was in danger?

"take it out!"

She held out her hand to the two maids.

Seeing that the two maids did not move, she said in a cold voice: "If you can't obey orders, you can leave now!"

The two maids knelt down again with a thud.

A maid resigned herself to her fate and untied the strap on her right calf, took out a small black copper tube from her trouser leg, raised it with both hands and handed it to Shen Nanxing.

"Princess, this is it. Just remove the copper cap, and a signal will be emitted from the copper tube, and the Nine Thousand Year Old Man will see it."

After saying this, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look up.

Shen Nanxing took the copper pipe in his hand and patted the shoulders of the two maids, with a smile in his eyes.

"Hurry up, you are mine now, he won't dare punish you, don't worry!"

She carefully examined the copper pipe in her hand. It was pitch black and rather heavy, and it looked somewhat similar to its owner.

Shen Nanxing pursed her lips, and without hesitation, she reached out, pulled out the copper cap, and pointed the copper tube towards the sky.

Soon I felt a vibration, and after a small buzzing sound, a heat wave gushed out of the copper tube and rushed straight into the sky.

Finally, a shape as big as a small palm appeared in the sky.

Bright red.

That is, the stars.

her name……

……

Leaving the palace.

A man in black clothes and black hair was sitting alone at a stone table, with the black and white pieces facing each other on the chessboard.

He had just put down a white piece with his left hand when he picked up a black piece with his right hand and was about to put it down.

Suddenly, my heart started buzzing.

His expression changed and he stood up suddenly, overturning the chessboard on the stone table and scattering the black and white chess pieces all over the floor.

Nanxing, there is danger!!!
