Chapter 20 The Director Sleeps in the Prince's Room
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
Shen Yue shouted several times before Xiao Yuheng came back to his senses.
"Your Highness, look! Your hair has turned back to black. I told you it would get better!"
Shen Yue seemed even more excited than he, the person involved. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "It's just a temporary recovery. It's getting late, let's go out."
"Yeah, okay."
When the two of them left the secret room, they took another secret door. After Shen Yue came out, she discovered that this door led to Xiao Yuheng's bedroom.
She had secretly come to this bedroom before, but never found any mechanism. It was strange.
Our little shadow guard absolutely did not believe that there was any mechanism in the world that she could not find. As soon as she went out the door, she felt around the wall, trying to find the button to open the door.
Xiao Yuheng knew what she was thinking at a glance, "Don't look for it, this door can only be used to exit but not enter."
"Oh, no wonder." Shen Yue stood up after hearing that.
Just then, there was a rapid knock on the door.
"Your Majesty, are you here?"
It is the sound of the long wind.
"Come in."
Xiao Yuheng responded and slowly walked to the table and sat down.
After receiving the order, Changfeng and Zhao Si limped in.
Seeing that Chen Yue was also in the room, Changfeng was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a hint of anger appeared on his face.
He had just been beaten with a stick the day before yesterday. The prince was kind and allowed him to rest for a few days. However, the good times did not last long. At dawn today, Zhao Si woke him up and said that the shadow guards were knocked unconscious again. No one responded when they knocked on the prince's door. The shadow guards did not dare to break in, so they had to ask him for advice.
At that time, he felt like the sky was falling. Regardless of the injuries on his body, he rushed over in a hurry.
Now it seems that it must be Shen Er who is causing trouble again.
Thinking of this, he gave Shen Yue another vicious look.
Shen Yue: ...No, what's wrong with me? This time it's none of my business, really!
Xiao Yuheng noticed the reactions of the two people, and the corners of his mouth raised secretly, but then quickly suppressed it.
"What is it?"
Zhao Si knelt on the ground, trembling, and spoke first:
"I, my subordinate, deserve to die. I allowed the bad guys to break into the palace again. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me and not expel my brothers from the palace..."
Shen Yue then remembered that it was the unlucky Zhao Si who was on duty yesterday. She looked at him with sympathy, then tried her best to suppress her smile as she looked at Xiao Yuheng.
She wanted to see how the Dog Prince would deal with them this time.
"cough."
Xiao Yuheng glared at her and said calmly:
"Expulsion from the palace is indeed a bit harsh. How about this: all the people in the Four Departments will receive twenty lashes of the cane, and...be careful next time."
Zhao Si obviously didn't expect Xiao Yuheng to let him go so easily. He stood there in a daze for a long time until Changfeng coughed lightly to remind him. Then he reacted, thanked him excitedly, and walked out.
"Your Highness, the shadow guards said that you didn't respond to their knocks on the door last night. Did you go to the secret room? Could it be that your cold..."
Changfeng looked a little anxious. He wanted to say something, but because Chen Yue was present, he didn't say it in the end.
"Yes, it's the onset of the cold poison." Xiao Yuheng answered nonchalantly.
When Changfeng heard this, his lips slightly opened, and his pupils were full of shock.
The prince actually admitted that he was poisoned in front of Shen Er!
That means Shen Er already knows that he has the cold poison?
Only two days had passed since the prince said he wanted to recruit him for his own use. How could he already know so much about the prince?
You know, Changfeng has been with the prince since he was a child, and he only learned this secret when he was eight years old.
At that time, the prince was afraid of scaring them, so whenever the cold poison attacked him, he would hide in the dark alone, and would not show up until the poison subsided and he returned to normal. Even so, the first time he saw the prince's appearance, he was still frightened and cried for three days.
From then on, the prince hated himself even more when poisoned. No matter how he tried to persuade him, the prince would not let him enter the secret room.
But judging from the current situation, Shen Er should have just come out of the secret room...
Inexplicably, he felt unhappy, and the look he gave Shen Er was more hostile.
However, the most urgent matter was the prince's health. He pursed his lips and asked:
"The prince's poison should still take effect in more than ten days. How could it have occurred so early? Did the prince eat anything cold?"
Hearing the word "cold food", Shen Yue blinked her innocent eyes and asked doubtfully:
"The prince did eat some Sushan. Why can't he eat cold food?"
"Sushan?" Changfeng's face darkened immediately when he heard that.
"You know, normally we wouldn't even let the prince touch cold water, yet you dared to let him eat something as cold as Sushan? You're really brave!"
Shen Yue was stunned: "I...I don't know!"
He's a grown man, and he doesn't have his period, so how would I know if he can touch cold water or eat cold food...
Changfeng: "You..."
Seeing that the two were about to choke, Xiao Yuheng finally spoke: "Changfeng, it's this king who wants to eat, it's none of Shen Er's business."
"But……"
"Okay, back off."
The man spoke slowly and steadily, but his voice was filled with unquestionable authority.
Changfeng could only sigh helplessly and walked out of the door in disappointment.
Looking at his departing back, Shen Yue snorted coldly, opened her hands, bent her five fingers like claws, and made an exaggerated grimace.
"Tsk! I told you to..."
He looked like a smug villain. Xiao Yuheng watched him quietly, and when he thought about how he had just suspected that he was a woman, he felt it was even more absurd.
He couldn't help but laugh at himself and shook his head.
When he looked up again, he saw Shen Yue looking at him seriously: "Your Majesty, you look very beautiful when you smile."
For some reason, he felt uncomfortable and had to shout coldly to cover it up.
"presumptuous!"
Shen Yue didn't expect that he would change his attitude as quickly as turning the pages of a book. She was so scared that her shoulders shook and she slid to her knees as if by reflex.
She regretted it the moment she knelt. How could she, after being a shadow guard for a few months, have developed such a slave mentality? She knelt so smoothly...
Xiao Yuheng had no intention of blaming her. He just found it funny, and the uncomfortable feeling he had just had disappeared.
"You should leave too." He pretended to be calm.
"Oh." Shen Yue stood up dejectedly.
"etc."
"What?" She didn't look very good.
It’s not over yet, right?
A certain prince coughed lightly and said, "You worked hard last night. Go back and have a good sleep. Leave the training to others."
That's about right.
"Is it okay to sleep for three days and three nights?" she asked.
“…Shen Er, don’t push your luck.”
"Haha, I'm just talking."
"You are allowed to rest for two days, no more."
"yeah!"
Shen Yue was so happy to have two days off for nothing that she planned to sleep till dawn. However, she couldn't fall asleep after less than a day.
It was not for any other reason, but because the rumors about her and Xiao Yuheng had already reached the doorstep.
"Hey, have you heard? Our director slept in the prince's room last night!"
"real?"
"It's more real than real gold! The two of them tossed and turned all night, and the people from the Fourth Division knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered!"
"Not only that, our director was holding his waist when he left the house this morning, and he even had dark circles under his eyes!"
