Chapter 84 The Prince is the Longest

In order to escape from Xiao Yuheng's clutches, Shen Yue was finally forced to say "I can't bear to leave the prince."

After returning to the Shadow Guard Department, she immediately informed Jiang Da and Zhao Si. Several directors used the morning to select the shadow guards to be taken to the capital, and spent the afternoon preparing horses and loading luggage.

As for the maids, Xiao Yuheng only chose Baozhu, and the palace doctor only brought Cheng Sijin.

Both of them were the confidants arranged by Concubine Rou for Xiao Yuheng. It was understandable that Shen Yue was brought along, but for some reason, Xiao Yuheng specifically asked for Aunt Wang from the kitchen to be brought along.

You have to know that Aunt Wang is sixty years old and her bones are very fragile. She was exhausted from the journey. Shen Yue was really worried that she would die before reaching the capital, so she had to come to Xiao Yuheng to plead for mercy.

After Xiao Yuheng learned her purpose, he frowned in confusion, "Didn't you say you couldn't bear to part with Aunt Wang's craftsmanship?"

"...I was just saying that. Besides, even if you hate to part with the food they cook, you can't let the old man travel such a long distance."

Her original intention was to let Xiao Yuheng give up the idea of ​​taking Aunt Wang with him, but he didn't get the point.

"So the Second Director's statement that he couldn't bear to part with me was just a casual remark?"

"……no."

A certain prince seemed very satisfied with her answer, "That's good."

What's good about it? This isn't the point at all, okay?

"So, regarding the matter of Your Majesty and Madam Wang..."

"The Second Director is the one who makes the decision."

"Okay!"

So, after a day and a night of rest, the Chengwangfu team set out on the journey back to Beijing in the morning light of the next day.

Xiao Yuheng was a delicate person, so naturally he had to ride in a carriage.

Cheng Sijin and Baozhu are delicate and gentle girls, so naturally they also have to ride in a carriage.

A master like Shen Yue... no... a fake master, had no choice but to ride in front with the other two directors to lead the way.

As for the shadow guards, they were divided into several groups, some exploring the way, some surrounding the carriage, and the rest following the carriage loaded with cargo.

Shen Yue had been going out with Xiao Yuheng every day for a while, and was rarely in the department. She also had few opportunities to meet with other directors, so Jiang Da took advantage of the free time on the road to ask her about the formation of the Second Department.

Zhao Si was different. He had no interest in the fancy gadgets invented by Shen Yue. He could even say that he looked down on them completely. The only thing he was interested in was her private life with the prince.

So, after Jiang Da finished asking, he rode his horse to Chen Yue's side and asked casually:

"The horse the Second Director rode today is fat and strong, with a glossy black coat. Its hooves roar with the wind as it walks. It looks so familiar. Could it be the prince's favorite horse, Swift Wind?"

"Yeah, yes."

Shen Yue replied casually and looked at Ji Feng below her.

This horse is tall, majestic and handsome, and looks really amazing, just like its owner.

Xiao Yuheng said that the journey was long and he was afraid that the BMW would get lost, so he asked her to take care of it personally, so she had no choice but to ride it.

Seeing her concise reply, Zhao Si knew that she didn't want to talk in depth, but he was not a man who knew what was good for him. The more Shen Yue didn't want to talk, the more he approached her in a sarcastic tone.

"The prince is really special to the Second Chief. He even gave you his own Ferghana horse to ride. A few days ago, he only allowed the Second Chief to accompany him on his trips. It seems that the other two of us will soon be abandoned by the prince. Don't you agree, Brother Jiang?"

Jiang Da secretly glanced at Xiao Yuheng's carriage behind him, then looked at Zhao Si meaningfully, and finally chose not to participate in this topic.

Zhao Si's warm welcome was met with a cold shoulder, and he immediately showed embarrassment on his face. Seeing this, Shen Yue laughed and said:

"What are you talking about, Fourth Director? The prince is sympathetic to your two brothers' hard work and is allowing you to rest temporarily. I am only doing some trivial errands. For such an important task as protecting the prince on the way to the capital, I will need to rely on you two brothers."

Zhao Si was obviously pleased with what he said. "That's right. When it comes to real problems, you have to rely on your strength. Your looks are useless."

Shen Yue couldn't help rolling her eyes when she heard this. She didn't want to pay attention to him, but she didn't expect that he was not done yet.

"Brother Zhao, that's not right. A pretty face is still very useful. At least it's pleasing to the eye. If the people His Majesty faces every day are either pockmarked or scarred, won't he vomit up the food he ate three days ago?"

Zhao Si subconsciously touched the pockmark on his chin, "Are you talking about me? You..."

He was about to say something else when Jiang Da interrupted him, "Director Four, please be careful with your words. Be careful what you say."

After saying that, he gave him another look that said, "You're still talking like that? Aren't you afraid that the prince will hear it?"

Chen Yue understood the meaning clearly, but Zhao Si didn't get it at all.

"Brother Jiang, am I wrong? Serving a man with beauty won't last forever. I think the prince is tired of him, otherwise he wouldn't have left him outside to ride his horse and not come back to see him for the entire morning."

As soon as the words fell, a lazy male voice came from Xiao Yuheng’s carriage: “Chen Er, come here.”

"oh."

Shen Yue responded and shrugged at Zhao Si, "I can't help it, the prince missed me again. It seems that being too handsome is also a kind of trouble."

After saying that, she turned her horse around and walked towards the back.

Jiang Da couldn't help but sigh, "I've told you everything, the prince can hear it, and you still keep talking..."

Zhao Si scratched his head. "No, when did you say that? Why didn't I hear it?"

Jiang Da ignored him, gave him a look that said "My mother won't let me play with idiots", and rode away on his horse.

Shen Yue came to the carriage, opened the curtain, and said with a playful smile, "What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

"Come up."

"Okay." Shen Yue's butt was sore from riding the horse, and she wanted a seat ticket, so she handed the horse to the driver and jumped on happily.

These days, she was used to riding in Xiao Yuheng's carriage and was not restrained. She sat opposite Xiao Yuheng, gulped down a cup of tea, and then picked up the grapes on the table and started eating.

The slender fingertips peeled off the purple-red grape skin, revealing the round and crystal-clear flesh, leaving a small piece of sticky moisture on the fingertips.

Xiao Yuheng's Adam's apple rolled, he wanted it.

So he opened his mouth without hesitation and moved closer to her.

Shen Yue: “…Okay.”

The sweet fruity aroma bloomed in his mouth, and Xiao Yuheng's mood improved a lot.

"Is this how you usually interact with other directors?"

Shen Yue choked, "I didn't mean to argue with them. You heard it too. It was the Fourth Director who spoke first."

"That's not what I'm talking about." Xiao Yuheng glanced at her coldly, "Is it normal to call me brother?"

Shen Yue was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was talking about.

She was a little speechless, "He's older than me, it's not appropriate for me to call him brother!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuheng's face turned even darker, and his breathing became heavier through his nostrils.

Shen Yue touched her nose helplessly and said, "Alright, alright, I won't call you that anymore from now on, alright? I'll just call you Prince."

After she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong and corrected herself by blinking her watery peach blossom eyes.

"The prince is not short, the prince is the longest."
