The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people

Fengyue Tower, private room on the third floor.

Shen Yuanmu sat on the edge of the bed and Gu Beihuai sat on the edge of the table. The two of them sat opposite each other and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.

Ye Yuege was still lying on the bed. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately got out of bed and was about to leave.

Shen Yuanmu reached out and held her down, his tone unconsciously revealing a hint of tenderness that he himself did not even notice.

"Lie still."

Ye Yuege's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and then began beating happily like a deer.

Shen Yuanmu looked at Gu Beihuai and said respectfully, "Thank you for what happened today, Your Majesty."

Gu Beihuai looked indifferent, without any disturbance at all.

"Yan'er has something to ask for, so I can save her."

What I meant was that I was doing this for Yan'er's sake.

Shen Yuanmu felt that it was not that simple, and his voice deepened, "I didn't expect that the prince would know the art of mechanical devices, and it is a unique skill of our Chu Yue Pavilion."

"Really?" Gu Beihuai's fingers gently stroked the ring on his thumb. Even this small action revealed a sense of dignity and elegance.

"Why don't you tell me, Master Shen, where did Chu Yue Pavilion learn the ingenious techniques of mechanical devices from?"

Shen Yuanmu frowned slightly. He had never thought about this before. He only knew that since its establishment by his mother, each zodiac branch of Chu Yue Pavilion had its own abilities.

He thought for a moment and blurted out.

“I learned it from my mother, naturally.”

Gu Beihuai nodded, "Then where did your mother learn it from?"

Shen Yuanmu's brows furrowed even deeper. He suspected that Gu Beihuai was deliberately making things difficult for him.

"My mother's master came from Yumen Mountain, so naturally she learned from the master in Yumen Mountain..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly reacted and stood up abruptly.

"You, you also learned from Yumen Mountain?"

"So, you are my senior brother?"

Gu Beihuai raised his eyebrows slightly and corrected lightly, "Uncle Master."

Shen Yuanmu staggered.

"You, you and my mother are from the same school?"

That’s not right. Why hasn’t he heard his mother talk about this uncle-master?

Gu Beihuai's next words cleared up his doubts.

"I entered Yumen Mountain when I was twelve years old, but I only stayed there for a year before leaving the mountain."

Shen Yuanmu's head was a little confused. He quickly raised his hand to stop her, "Prince, wait a minute. You went to Yumen Mountain when you were twelve years old. At that time, your mother was already..."

"I already have you and Yan'er. Yan'er is four years younger than me. We met on Yumen Mountain."

After hearing this, Shen Yuanmu remembered that his mother had indeed taken Shen Qingyan back to Yumen Mountain for some reasons, but did not take him with her. He did not know what the reason was.

Suddenly, as if he thought of something, his pupils dilated again.

"Prince, you, you couldn't have coveted Yan'er at that time, and then forced her to marry you, right?"

Shen Yuanmu's mind was confused again, and he was even a little angry.

Shen Qingyan was only eight years old at that time! Gu Beihuai was simply a beast...

Gu Beihuai knew what he was thinking, and said in a cold voice: "I am not as dirty as you think. It was Yan'er who said that she would not marry anyone but me, and there was also your mother's request."

Shen Yuanmu's mouth twitched. He believed the second half of the sentence, but the first half...

"At that time, Yan was a child who didn't mind his words. Whenever she saw a good-looking man, she would say that she wanted to marry him when she grew up, including me, her brother."

Gu Beihuai's face was very dark.

At this moment, Qingmei suddenly rushed in and said without regard for etiquette: "My Lord, Master Shen, the princess chased a servant to the backyard of Fengyue Tower, and it seems to me that something bad is going to happen!"

what?

Shen Yuanmu and Gu Beihuai stood up at the same time and immediately followed Qingmei's direction.

Ye Yuege, who had been lying stiffly on the bed for a long time, felt relieved and subconsciously stood up and followed Shen Yuanmu.

Shen Yuanmu frowned slightly and stopped her again.

"You don't have to follow me this time."

Ye Yuege looked up in surprise. At that moment, it was as if a bunch of fireworks bloomed in her heart, making her heart beat irregularly again.

Before she could say anything, Shen Yuanmu left in a hurry.

Ye Yuege had no choice but to swallow the rest of her words.

She covered her heart and took a few deep breaths.

Shen Qingyan's words suddenly appeared in my mind.

"Don't worry, I, your sister-in-law, only recognize you. You must work hard and win your brother's heart as soon as possible."

Work hard...

Ye Yuege couldn't help but think of the time last night in the secret room when the ice mechanism was triggered and she and Shen Yuanmu were freezing cold. Shen Yuanmu wrapped her in his cloak, and then the two of them cuddled together for warmth...

At that time, she thought, does the boss have her in his heart?

Ye Yuege quickly calmed himself down and got up from the bed.

Shen Yuanmu didn't let her go, so she couldn't really lie in bed with peace of mind.

At the same time, Shen Qingyan and the agile servant had already fought in the backyard of Fengyue Tower.

The servant was so agile, like a slippery loach, that Shen Qingyan couldn't catch him at all.

What’s even more outrageous is that during the fight just now, he had the teapot firmly held in his hand.

"Your Highness Princess is quite skilled, I admit I am better than you." The servant dodged and jumped several feet away in the blink of an eye, and said with a sly look, "But I have something important to attend to, please let me go for once."

Shen Qingyan frowned, feeling that something was wrong, but still asked, "Who are you? Did you touch the mechanism in the secret room?"

"what?"

The servant was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

He placed the teapot on the ground and bowed respectfully.

"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. I am Jiashu, the eldest disciple of the leader of the Twelve Zodiac Signs of the Rat Generation. I am here to pay my respects to your Highness."

"..."

Shen Qingyan rubbed her forehead and found it a little funny.

"No, you're one of us, so why are you sneaking around?"

Others might betray their master, but the people of Chu Yue Pavilion definitely wouldn't, so Shen Qingyan's doubts dissipated a lot.

Rat A scratched his head and said innocently, "I was born with this attitude, otherwise I wouldn't have joined the Rat Team."

It has shifty eyes and is as nimble as a mouse, which really fits the temperament of a mouse.

Shen Qingyan thought this misunderstanding was a little funny, and asked helplessly: "Why didn't you say it at the beginning?"

Rat A scratched his beard, looking serious but a little aggrieved.

"I thought the princess wanted to check my skills temporarily."

"..."

Shen Qingyan sighed and asked casually: "You just said you had something important to do, what is it?"

Rat A smiled sheepishly and said mysteriously, "I just saw a man who was even more sneaky than me, and I was about to catch him under the pretext of dumping tea dregs."

Shen Qingyan's eyes widened instantly. It turned out that the person he caught was the one with bad intentions!

"Then what are you still standing there for? Let's go catch him!"

Shen Qingyan knew that she had delayed things, so she immediately rushed to the backyard.

Rat A said hurriedly, "Don't worry, Princess. Rat B and the Longicorn are blocking the backyard. No one can escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Beihuai and Shen Yuanmu came hurriedly.
