Chapter 360: Dare you touch her?
Xiao Chenze said to the young eunuch in a cold tone, "What do you want from me? Can't you see I'm busy? Go back."
The young eunuch could tell that his tone was wrong and didn't dare to say anything more. He just said yes and quickly retreated.
Everyone sent the emperor to the imperial study, where Eunuch Chang was waiting. When he saw everyone coming back, he was so excited that he couldn't speak.
The emperor said, "Fang Yao, Marquis Guan Yong, the two of you should go back and wash and change your clothes. Come into the palace. I have something to ask you."
The two men knew that it was related to state affairs and quickly agreed.
Shen Li walked in front, and Xiao Chenze followed closely behind. As they walked, the two of them distanced themselves from the crowd.
"You..." Xiao Chenze spoke first, "Let me take you back."
Shen Li looked back at him, her eyebrows and eyes lightly said, "No, I'll go to the front to wait for my uncle, and then I'll disappear directly."
She didn't say anything and went straight into the space, and even if she did, he wouldn't understand.
Now her ability to teleport is out in the open. Even the emperor knows about it and is very happy to see it. She doesn't have to hide it anymore.
This is all thanks to the fact that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor recognized her as a person first, so no matter what extraordinary things happened to her, they would not think she was supernatural.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Chenze thought for a moment and asked, "I came back from Northern Xinjiang and found that there was some estrangement between us. Am I right?"
Shen Li stopped and looked at the snow flying all over the sky. Without looking back, she said, "I only found out that Ding Lan died because of me when I came back. I felt guilty for a long time and often thought that everything in the world is impermanent. Perhaps I should go back to my own place. This place is not suitable for me."
Xiao Chenze's heart skipped a beat.
He had heard a lot of things in the past few days. Shen Li sent weapons and books to build a library. Everyone was impressed by her concern for the world and her open mind. She was the perfect choice for the Crown Princess.
Only he himself always had a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, she said she was going back.
"Where is that place? Why don't you take me with you when you leave so that I can broaden my horizons?" He deliberately made his tone more relaxed.
Shen Li turned around and glanced at him. The snowflakes flew onto her face and quickly melted away, leaving her face feeling a little cold. "You want to go too?"
She felt dizzy just imagining the scene, "You can't go to that place."
She didn't know when she would be able to go back, let alone if she would be able to come back after that.
Everything is unknown, and she doesn't dare to take risks with Xiao Chenze.
After all, if she couldn't come back, it would mean that she had abducted the crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The sky of the Great Zhou would collapse, and her uncle's entire family would be executed.
Xiao Chenze had no idea what she was thinking, he just felt his heart tighten.
He couldn't go to that place. He couldn't fly, nor could he disappear instantly. He didn't even know where that place was.
Just as I was about to ask again, I heard a woman's voice behind me shouting, "Cousin, where are you going?"
Shen Li and Xiao Chenze looked up at the same time.
The snow had already formed a thick layer on the ground, and Chu Qianxue, wearing a red cloak, walked over aggressively.
The snow was so thick that it covered her ankles. She couldn't walk steadily and would stumble if she wasn't careful. This made her feel very embarrassed and even more annoyed.
Xiao Chenze frowned at her and asked in a cold voice, "What do you want from me?"
Chu Qianxue finally walked in front of them. She stopped and glared at Shen Li with malicious eyes. Then she rolled her eyes and said to Xiao Chenze, "Where are you going with her?"
Before Xiao Chenze could say anything, Shen Li snorted and scoffed, "Xiao Chenze, is this your relative? She seems to have some eye problems. We need to find a doctor right away. Otherwise, she'll always roll her eyes at people, looking like a dead fish with its eyes whitened. It's so ugly."
Xiao Chenze chuckled.
Chu Qianxue immediately became furious. She pulled out a long whip from her sleeve and swung it into the air. The whip came towards Shen Li's face with a sharp whistling sound.
Xiao Chenze's expression changed.
He leaped in front of Shen Li, grabbed Shen Li's waist, and the two of them jumped up at the same time and landed on the other side.
The whip missed, stirring up thousands of rolls of snow.
Chu Qianxue was so angry that her face turned red. She pulled the whip back and was about to swing it out again.
Xiao Chenze stood in front of Shen Li with his tall body and said coldly, "Just try to touch her."
Chu Qianxue was shocked and looked at him in disbelief, "Cousin, you..."
At this time, Fang Jitao also ran over.
He threw the things in his hand to the ground and hurried to see Shen Li, "Cousin, are you okay? Ah? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"I'm fine." Shen Li said.
Fang Jitao turned around abruptly, squinting his eyes at Chu Qianxue. His usual nonchalant demeanor was gone, and a murderous aura suddenly filled his body. "You are the eldest daughter of the Zhenguogong Mansion, right?"
"Humph," Chu Qianxue raised her neck, looking arrogant, "So what? Who are you?"
"I'm your uncle," Fang Jitao said, instantly getting angry. "If it weren't for your father's sake, I'd skin you alive today."
"you dare."
"What am I afraid of?" Fang Jitao took two steps forward. "Touch her again and see if I dare to skin you alive."
"you......"
From childhood to adulthood, Chu Qianxue had never suffered such injustice. How could anyone dare to threaten her like this?
She was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She raised her whip and was about to attack, "My father is the Duke of Zhenguo, and my aunt is the Empress Yuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Who the hell do you think you are? You dare to talk to me like that? I will break your dog legs today and let you scream again."
Seeing that the whip was about to fly into the air, Fang Jitao was about to reach out to grab the whip, but Shen Li raised her hand and pulled the crossbow in her sleeve towards her.
Two whoosh sounds.
Xiao Chenze and Fang Jitao had strong eyesight and simultaneously saw two flashes of silver light passing by quickly among the flying snowflakes.
There was no sound and no one knew what was happening.
Chu Qianxue's raised wrist suddenly stopped, and the long whip in her hand fell off. Like a long winding snake, it lay dark and motionless in the snow.
The girl following behind Chu Qianxue was so frightened that she quickly stepped forward and pushed her, "Miss, Miss, what's wrong with you? Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Qianxue didn't move at all. After a while, even her eyeballs stopped moving.
Xiao Chenze stood in front of Shen Li calmly, blocking the girl's view, "Carry her back and let her rest well. I'll send someone to deliver the antidote later."
The girl was frightened and cried. When she heard what Xiao Chenze said, she thought that he had given the girl some medicine, otherwise where would the antidote come from?
She didn't dare to ask any more questions. She quickly wiped her tears and went to help Chu Qianxue.
Over there, Eunuch Chang hurried over and shouted from a distance, "Oh my god, how can this be done? The sedan chair will be here soon, and we will carry her on it. Who hired this maid? She is so stupid."
