The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

Shen Nanzhi's face looked a little ugly, and her reaction just now made Xiao Chuyun even more uneasy.

"Never seen it before."

Xiao Chuyun only glanced at the man's eyebrows, then turned to ask Shen Nanzhi: "Have you seen Miss Shen?"

The man and woman on the ground were still breathing. Xiao Chuyun only knocked them out but did not kill them.

Seeing their dishevelled appearance, Shen Nanzhi felt unlucky even if he looked at them for a second longer.

Shen Nanzhi was not surprised when Xiao Chuyun said he had never seen this person. After all, the empress dowager stayed in Yongning Palace all year round and never went out, and the people in her palace rarely went out either.

What's more, Xiao Chuyun had little contact with the Queen Mother, so it was understandable that he had never met her.

Shen Nanzhi turned his head away, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have seen it, but..."

But how could she say it after something like this happened!

After all, that was also his nominal grandmother.

Shen Nanzhi was hesitating when Xiao Chuyun spoke first, "Is it in Yongning Palace?"

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi was a little surprised and asked, "The prince knows everything?"

Xiao Chuyun lowered his eyes and said in a cold tone: "The silk handkerchief that Yao Zheng hid looks like it was made by an embroiderer in the palace, judging from the patterns and embroidery. In addition, it is made of top-grade brocade, and the peony pattern is used as the base..."

In such a huge palace, the person who could use such a handkerchief, the identity of the handkerchief's owner was obvious, not to mention, he had seen the handkerchief with his own eyes.

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi remembered Xiao Chuyun's reaction when he saw the silk handkerchief at Shen's house before.

He told her, an impossible person.

At that time, Shen Nanzhi hadn't even thought about the Queen Mother.

Even now, she found it unbelievable.

How can it be!

But all the signs pointed to her, especially yesterday, when Shen Nanzhi smelled that disgusting odor in her bedroom.

Combined with the fake eunuch's reaction at the time, it was obvious that the so-called Queen Mother taking a nap was just an excuse. In fact, she was probably making love with the fake eunuch at that time.

She thought that she could cover it up by opening the windows to disperse the smell and burning some strong spices, but she didn't expect that Shen Nanzhi had a very keen sense of smell.

Otherwise, if it wasn't her, who would dare to do something shameful in her bedroom and in front of her?

Xiao Chuyun was so perceptive that he saw the clues from the silk handkerchief at that time, and guessed that the case of Yao Zheng involved a wide range of people, so he told her not to act rashly. It happened that he was held up by the case of Gao Jingwen from the Ministry of Revenue, so he did not tell Shen Nanzhi in detail at that time.

Shen Nanzhi also listened to the advice, but she didn't expect that she would come to explore the hot spring villa as planned, and these two things would coincide with each other.

"Your Majesty..."

For a moment, Shen Nanzhi didn't know what to say.

Originally, Shen Nanzhi wanted to investigate the weirdness here and also wanted to get to the bottom of Yao Zheng's case, but now she knew that it was not advisable to investigate further, otherwise Xiao Chuyun would be put in a dilemma.

Even if the evidence is conclusive, who can do anything to the Queen Mother?

Moreover, this matter concerns the reputation of the royal family. Even if it is brought to the attention of the emperor, Xiao Chuyun will be the target of the emperor's anger in the end.

But unexpectedly, before Shen Nanzhi could speak, Xiao Chuyun lowered his eyes and asked her, "Has this person ever made Miss Shen unhappy before?"

This person is referring to the fake eunuch who was unconscious on the ground.

Shen Nanzhi didn't expect that Xiao Chuyun's focus was more on her than on the empress dowager.

However, when Shen Nanzhi thought of the fake eunuch’s previous actions, he felt nauseous.

She didn't want to make Xiao Chuyun worry, so she told him what happened in Yongning Palace.

When Xiao Chuyun heard that this fake eunuch actually wanted to use his dirty fingers to touch Shen Nanzhi's palm by supporting her, his eyes turned a little colder.

Seeing that Shen Nanzhi was disgusted and was still wiping her palms and sleeves that were almost touched with a handkerchief.

Seeing her palms rubbed red, Xiao Chuyun hurriedly took the handkerchief from Shen Nanzhi and said with a bit of apology in his tone: "I'm sorry, I let him pollute Miss Shen's eyes. I really didn't expect that he was so bold before..."

Xiao Chuyun should have taken action immediately before, but on the one hand, there were many traps here, and he couldn't act rashly until he was absolutely sure that he could knock these two people down instantly without killing them. Secondly, he also wanted to see if he could hear some useful clues from the conversation between the two people.

He was waiting for the opportunity to strike when the two men let down their guard.

Moreover, he had not expected that these two people would be so shameless as to be prepared to do such a shameful thing in this secret passage.

Although only a hint of it was revealed, it still caught Shen Nanzhi's attention.

Moreover, if Xiao Chuyun had known that this fake eunuch had dared to offend Shen Nanzhi before, he would never have let him live even a moment longer.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chuyun lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Nanzhi: "I have a few words to ask these two people. It may be a little bloody and make people uncomfortable. Miss Shen, please move forward and wait for me at the entrance of the secret passage they just came from."

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi shook his head: "It's okay, Your Majesty, don't forget that I'm not a good man or a believer."

She was just disgusted just now, but that doesn't mean she would be merciful or be so scared by the sight of blood that her legs went weak and she couldn't walk.

However, thinking that Xiao Chuyun was going to wake up the two men for interrogation, Shen Nanzhi suggested: "For the sake of safety, we should hide our identities."

As she was speaking, she saw that Xiao Chuyun had taken the handkerchief she had just used to wipe her hands and covered half of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. Shen Nanzhi then realized that he had taken her handkerchief for this purpose. They had thought of the same thing.

However, she had just wiped her sleeves and rubbed her palms with the handkerchief. Although there was nothing wrong, she felt uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty..."

Shen Nanzhi just opened her mouth, but heard Xiao Chuyun gently say: "It's okay, Miss Shen's handkerchief is very good."

Even though she had used it, he didn't show any disgust at all.

However, he was wearing a dark-colored tights today, which outlined his figure, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and he looked very heroic.

But with such a handsome and tall figure, the contrast is even stronger because his face is covered with a light pink scarf.

Fortunately, this secret passage illuminated by night pearls is not darker than the outside, and the light and shadow are dim, so it is not too abrupt.

Shen Nanzhi was about to speak, but the next moment she saw Xiao Chuyun raise his finger to his lips, make a gesture to her to keep quiet, and glance at the two people on the ground.

Shen Nanzhi just realized that the two people on the ground were about to wake up.

She had to hide her identity, but her handkerchief had been taken away by Xiao Chuyun, and she had nothing else to cover her face. Shen Nanzhi was thinking that she should find a place to hide quietly and spy in secret, but the next moment her eyes went dark, and she saw Xiao Chuyun handing his plain white silk handkerchief to Shen Nanzhi.

But just as he stretched out his hand, he hesitated again and whispered: "If Miss Shen also dislikes it..."

Shen Nanzhi was disgusted by the fake eunuch, so she took her anger out on the handkerchief she had used to wipe her hands and sleeves.

Xiao Chuyun also saw through her thoughts, so he took her handkerchief and took his.

He meant well, so how could Shen Nanzhi refuse?

She quickly shook her head, took the handkerchief, and imitated Xiao Chuyun, quickly covering most of her face with it.

The handkerchief still carried the herbal fragrance of Xiao Chuyun's body, which made people feel at ease when they smelled it. Miraculously, it also helped Shen Nanzhi suppress the nausea in her heart caused by the fake eunuch.

She had just finished cleaning up when the two people on the ground woke up.

When the fake eunuch saw the two masked men, he turned over and was about to activate the mechanism, but before he could move his body slightly and get up, he saw Xiao Chuyun had picked up two stones from the ground.

He threw one of the pieces directly at a vital part of the fake eunuch's body.

Before the fake eunuch could react, the two taels of flesh under his crotch exploded instantly.

The fake eunuch turned into a real eunuch in an instant.

The pain was so severe that he instinctively wanted to scream, but the moment he opened his mouth, another stone thrown by Xiao Chuyun hit his mouth with incredible precision, blocking his throat.

Not only were all his sounds blocked by the stone, he couldn't even breathe. Coupled with the pain in his body, he convulsed in pain and suffocated to death in the excruciating pain.

Everything happened in an instant. Even the woman beside him had just woken up and her consciousness had not yet fully returned. She neither saw Xiao Chuyun's move nor had time to help the fake eunuch. When she came to her senses, the fake eunuch was already convulsing and unconscious. From beginning to end, he didn't even have time to utter a scream.

This scene stunned the woman.

While Xiao Chuyun was crippling the fake eunuch, his other hand had already wrapped around Shen Nanzhi's waist, pulling Shen Nanzhi in front of him to prevent her from seeing the fake eunuch's dirty things.

After the fake eunuch curled up on the ground and died, Xiao Chuyun let go of Shen Nanzhi and glanced coldly at the woman who was so scared that she collapsed on the ground.

"name."

The woman knelt on the ground and said tremblingly: "Slave...slave...Leng Yu...slave knows nothing...please spare my life...slave is willing to go through fire and water and do anything for you..."

This plea for mercy was met with a sneer from Xiao Chuyun: "Is this how you are loyal to your master? Since you are so spineless and dare to cheat on your master, should I say that you are cowardly or that you are so bold?"

His tone could not help but make the woman named Leng Yu feel a little suspicious, and also made her feel even more fearful.

She bravely raised her head and looked at Xiao Chuyun: "You...you...who are you? You are not the master's! And..."

Moreover, since he is one of our own, how could I kill him?

Having said that, Leng Yu subconsciously glanced at the miserable state of the eunuch beside her, and just one glance frightened her so much that she trembled all over.

The thing that had once brought her pleasure was now reduced to a bloody mess.

Leng Yu was shaking even more violently.

Xiao Chuyun looked at her coldly: "If we are not one of us, do you think we can get through the Seven Killing Formation safely?"

These words obviously made Leng Yu a little shaken.

She knew how powerful the Seven Killing Formation was. If they were not one of them, it would be unlikely for them to come out safely and know about this secret passage.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Xiao Chuyun say again: "However, strictly speaking, I am not your master's man, I am your highness's man, but what is the difference?

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but applaud Xiao Chuyun.

He did not adopt a direct interrogation approach, but instead used such a confident tone to try to get Leng Yu to speak based on his own guesses.

Based on Leng Yu's reaction, it can be seen whether his guess is correct.

Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, Leng Yu's face was panicked. She said with some uneasiness: "Even if he is your Highness's man, you shouldn't kill him easily. You know, he has to save face in front of the master."

Hearing this, Xiao Chuyun laughed and said, "No matter how proud you are, if the master knew about your affair, do you think you two would have a chance to survive? I am saving you."

Leng Yu lowered his head and stopped talking.

Xiao Chuyun continued, "It just so happens that the master and His Highness are here today. You don't want me to tell His Highness about this, right?"

Hearing this, Leng Yu turned pale and kowtowed immediately, saying, "Please show mercy, I was also coerced by this fellow! As long as you don't tell the master and His Highness, and let me live, I am willing to work like a cow or a horse!"

Hearing this, Shen Nanzhi and Xiao Chuyun looked at each other.

Sure enough, Xiao Qian’an’s shadow is involved in this matter!

Moreover, the conflict of interest between him and the Queen Mother was even deeper than Shen Nanzhi had previously imagined!

Xiao Chuyun continued: "Tell me everything you have done recently, and I will also weigh your sincerity to see if you are lying."

Leng Yu, who was already frightened out of her wits, did not suspect anything and immediately lowered her head and said in panic, "Except for hanging out with Xiaofu, I have not done anything else to let my master down. Recently, I have been staying at the villa in a well-behaved manner, helping my master to train the handsome men sent here. My master knows all this. I saw that my master has a new favorite, Pei Su, and will not look at Xiaofu any more, so I was blinded by greed... Please spare my life for the sake of my hard work for my master..."

Xiao Chuyun waved his hand: "In this case, I will pretend that this matter never happened and will not report it to His Highness. As for this side..."

At this point, he swept the corpse of the eunuch named Xiaofu on the ground. Leng Yu lowered her eyes and said quickly, "I understand. I will say later that he was accidentally beaten to death by a disobedient eunuch!"

Xiao Chuyun nodded pretending to be satisfied, "Go ahead, the master is still waiting for your reply."

Leng Yu did not dare to delay for a moment. She quickly gathered her clothes and stood up, then ran along the secret passage.

She was so panicked that she didn't even have time to think about the logic behind Xiao Chuyun's words.

After Leng Yu left, Shen Nanzhi turned to look at Xiao Chuyun and asked in a low voice: "What should we do next? Follow?"

Shen Nanzhi saw that Leng Yu was frightened, but when she calmed down, she would probably doubt Xiao Chuyun's identity and words.

But what does it matter? No matter whether Leng Yu was scared or not, she would rush to her "master" to report the news as soon as possible.

This is the reason why Xiao Chuyun let Leng Yu leave.

If they want to uncover the truth, all they have to do is follow it.

Xiao Chuyun also lowered his voice. He lowered his eyes to look into Shen Nanzhi's eyes, and asked instead of answering, "Don't you want to know the truth?"

Shen Nanzhi lowered her eyes.

At this point, she could actually guess what was going on.

But seeing is believing, and it would be a lie to say that I am not curious.

But, it is too dangerous to continue like this!

Moreover, she was also afraid that in the end, when things came to light, it would be difficult for Xiao Chuyun.

With just one look from her, Xiao Chuyun could tell what she was thinking. He naturally took her hand and said, "It's okay. Let's go over and take a look."
