Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Chapter 206 The clue is broken

After Zhu Yanxiao finished giving the instructions, he washed the dust off his hands and face, changed into a gorgeous brocade robe, and then hurried to a secret room in his yard.

The secret room was dark and damp. A person was curled up inside. This person was the eunuch who led the way for everyone in the royal hunting ground today. At this moment, his face was covered with purple bruises, and his right hand was abnormally swollen and could not even move. It was obvious that the bones were broken.

The eunuch's eyes were filled with fear and panic, and he huddled in a corner, trembling. When he saw Zhu Yanxiao step into the dark and damp secret room, he immediately knelt on his knees and kept begging for mercy: "Prince, spare me! Prince, spare me! Prince, spare me!"

Every time he knocked on the head, a crisp sound was made, echoing in the small space of the secret room. Zhu Yanxiao stood in front of the eunuch with an expressionless face, looking down at him, his eyes full of coldness and ruthlessness.

"Tell me, who instructed you to use the monkey to deal with Miss Shen Er?"

"I can't say it. I really can't say it. Please let me go, my lord."

"Can't tell?" Zhu Yanxiao waved his hand, and Xingyun stepped forward. "Break his leg bones, the kind that even the imperial physician can't fix." After saying that, he glanced behind him, and Liushui immediately lifted the chair behind the prince. Zhu Yanxiao sat down slowly, looking like he was waiting for the show to begin.

Seeing Xingyun coming, the eunuch was so scared that he crawled two steps to Zhu Yanxiao and continued to kowtow, saying: "My lord, please spare my life. It's not that I don't want to say it, but... "

Zhu Yanxiao keenly noticed that the eunuch occasionally looked up and his eyes were flying around in his sockets, which was completely different from the fear he showed. He sneered in his heart, thinking that he wanted to get benefits from this prince. He raised his hand to stop Xingyun who had walked up to the eunuch and was about to break his leg.

"what do you want?"

"Your Highness is indeed smart." The eunuch prostrated himself on the ground, not caring at all about the bleeding forehead. "I want ten ounces of gold, and you want me to leave the capital."

"can."

"Are you serious, my lord?"

"This prince never breaks his word."

"Okay." The eunuch gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble. "My family trained animals to make a living in my hometown. I have been exposed to them since I was a child. Later, because life was really difficult, my family sent me to the palace and I was chosen to look after the Monkey Mountain. I have trained animals before, and over time, the monkeys naturally know what to do with a gesture from my hand. Yesterday, a young eunuch who was unfamiliar to me came to the Monkey Mountain and brought a message to me, saying that today Prince Zhu and Miss Shen will come to the royal hunting ground to see the monkeys, and asked me to control the monkeys to attack Miss Shen. It would be best if her face was scratched, or at least Miss Shen should be injured. That's all I know."

Zhu Yanxiao's eyes turned cold, "Do you know which palace that little eunuch is from?"

The eunuch shook his head. "I have never seen that young eunuch before, but he has a token hanging around his waist with the word 'Wei' engraved on it."

Zhu Yanxiao knew that this person had a high status in the palace, as he could let his servants hang his exclusive token. He had a vague guess.

"I understand, you can go now. Liushui, take out ten ounces of gold and give it to him."

The eunuch was overjoyed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Why don't you get out of here?" The eunuch rolled and crawled out of the secret room.

Zhu Yanxiao stood up and walked out, looking at the direction where the eunuch disappeared and said, "Send someone to take him out of the capital safely in a carriage, and follow him in the dark after he leaves the capital. The person behind the scenes will definitely come out to silence him. Also, go find out which palace that eunuch surnamed Wei is from."

"Yes." Xingyun also came out of the dark room.

At this time, the night sky in Beijing gradually fell, and a few stars suddenly appeared in the east. As the stars gradually increased, the city quietly merged into a warm night. The bright moon hung in the sky, and the faint light was like a thin veil, floating and falling on the ground, like a layer of broken silver, sparkling and shining.

A thin man in black, holding a bundle tightly in his arms, slipped out from an inconspicuous side door of Prince Zhong's Mansion. Seeing an inconspicuous carriage parked not far away, the man jumped into the carriage without hesitation. The coachman whipped the carriage, and the carriage galloped towards the city gate. The carriage drove out of the capital just before the city gate was closed.

After traveling for about ten miles, the carriage finally stopped. A thin figure got off the carriage, looked around, said nothing, and took advantage of the night to sneak into the dense forest nearby.

Liushui led several Feidao guards and followed quietly. Suddenly, they sensed two more people hiding in the shadows in the dense forest. They stared at the eunuch holding the bundle with cold eyes, and a half-smile of sarcasm appeared on their lips. The edge of one of them slashed through the night sky with the blade of his sword, and the next second, the eunuch holding the bundle had been torn apart.

Just as the two were about to flee, they were surrounded by the Feidao Guards. Liushui walked forward, checked the eunuch's body, and took back the bundle containing 10 taels of gold. Then he bowed to the figure in the dark and said, "You two, which master's womb is this from?"

The figures in the dark looked at each other and crushed the poison hidden in their teeth. Liu Shui and Fei Daowei rushed forward, but it was too late. The two men had already fallen to the ground and died of poisoning.

"Search."

Several people searched for the two people, but still found nothing. Liushui could only drive the inconspicuous carriage to the agreed location anxiously, and after others took over the carriage, he returned to Prince Zhong's mansion to report.

Shen Shenshen woke up slowly after sleeping for two hours. He was a little confused when he opened his eyes. He didn't know where he was. The room was quiet and empty. He looked around for a while, and at the same time, he smelled his favorite and familiar smell, and he remembered it.

This is Ziyuan’s couch.

How come I am in Prince Zhong’s mansion?

Thinking carefully, I remembered that I had fainted due to blood phobia at around 3 p.m. today, which I hadn't had for a long time. I must have fainted and been taken into the palace by Ziyuan.

She slowly sat up and looked out the window. It was already dark, so it must be late. Feeling a little thirsty, she got out of bed and realized that except for her underwear, her outer clothes had been changed into brocade white underwear.

Shen Shenshen picked up the teapot on the eight-immortal table next to the bed and poured tea. The tea was neither cold nor hot, just right. As she drank the tea, she felt a little puzzled as to why there was no sound outside the room.

Just as I was thinking about it, the door was suddenly pushed open gently, and the gentle movement seemed as if afraid to make any sound.

The person who pushed the door looked up and was startled to see someone standing by the table. He took a closer look and said happily, "Miss Shen, are you awake?" He immediately bowed.

"Rui Huang." Shen Shenshen knew her.

"Qingsuo, go tell the prince that Second Miss Shen has woken up." Rui Huang turned her head and said outside.

There were quick footsteps coming out of the door.

"Miss Shen, would you like to have dinner?"

"Did Ziyuan use it?"

"Miss Shen, I don't know. I have been waiting outside the house, and I don't know whether the prince has had dinner in the study."

"That means no. Ziyuan will definitely wait for me." After that, he naturally instructed Rui Huang: "Ask the small kitchen to prepare some food. Also, ask someone to go to the main courtyard to ask if the princess has rested. If not, ask her if it would be too much trouble for me to pay my respects now."

Rui Huang was stunned by Shen Shenshen's self-righteousness at first, but then she came to her senses, thinking that she would be her master in two months at most, so she said with relief: "I'll go right away."

Not long after Rui Huang went out, a familiar figure entered the room, and Zhu Yanxiao had regained his handsome appearance.

"Awake?" He looked at her and curled up the corners of his mouth unconsciously.

"Ziyuan." Shen Shen happily stretched out his hands and put them around his waist. "Did I scare you today? Sorry, Shen Shen's blood phobia hasn't occurred for a long time, so I forgot about it."

Zhu Yanxiao naturally hugged her tightly, "Is it really blood phobia?"

"Ziyuan knows about this disease?"

"Today, the imperial physician from the palace came to check Shenshen's pulse and said that he was just asleep. This prince was angry and wanted to execute him. He saw that this prince was bleeding a lot and concluded that he was suffering from hemophobia."

"The imperial physician is indeed amazing."

At this time, Qingsuo knocked on the door and said, "Prince, Second Miss Shen, dinner is ready."

"Ziyuan probably hasn't eaten yet, right? Let's eat together, I'm starving."

Zhu Yanxiao smiled and asked someone to serve dinner.

The two were having dinner when Rui Huang came back to say that the princess was getting ready to go to bed. She appreciated Second Miss Shen's filial piety and could go and pay her respects tomorrow morning.

Hearing that all this had been taken into consideration, Zhu Yanxiao glanced at Shen Shenshen, who raised his eyebrows at him proudly.

After dinner, Zhu Yanxiao said softly, "When I saw Shenshen faint today, I thought she was pregnant. It seems that I need to work harder. Today in this room, I and Shenshen can get familiar with the wedding night first."

Shen Shenshen's face immediately turned red.
