Chen Shen paused and smiled: "Okay, I was planning to go back to school. But I'm afraid, Princess, you won't be able to go with me..."
The little Loli was stunned when she heard this: "Why?"
Chen Shen smiled and said nothing, only looking at the carriage diagonally ahead.
This was the car that Chen Hu used when he brought them here.
At this time, the carriage was still there, but the person waiting here was replaced by a woman wearing palace clothes.
"Aunt Aster?"
Gugu is the honorific title given by Xia Qingchan to the maid closest to her mother.
After recognizing the charming mature woman, Xia Qingchan's little face suddenly fell: "You, how did you know I'm here?"
"You little naughty"
The beautiful mature woman said angrily: "If Princess Caiyue hadn't come to chat with your mother and accidentally mentioned that you went to the General's Mansion to visit Mr. Chen, we would all have thought that you were staying at the Imperial Capital Academy!
"
As the queen's maid, this woman actually dared to call the princess "little naughty", and the other party was not angry.
It can be seen from this that her status in the hearts of the queen and princess is very extraordinary. Otherwise, Xia Qingchan could have punished her for one or more serious crimes just based on her outrageous words.
"Hmph! Sister Caiyue is so evil. She was the one who gave me the idea, but in the end she betrayed me..." Xia Qingchan muttered as she reluctantly walked towards the maid.
Chen Shen always seemed to be smiling, but his heart was filled with anger: "Damn it, Xia Caiyue, this sinister woman, really has a good plan!"
"Fortunately, I didn't lose my rationality due to the attack of charm poison. Otherwise... if the queen's most trusted maid found out what I did to the little princess, what would the consequences be?"
"Even without Chen Hu's image crystal, I might not be able to escape death..."
While Chen Shen was wandering in his thoughts, the maid not far away nodded slightly to him and then raised her hand——
"Whoops!"
The next second, a high-level top-grade mysterious beast, a three-tailed elk, was summoned by the woman from the beast bag, and then flew away with the two of them.
Now that Chen Hu was dead, Chen Shen was not polite and directly occupied his carriage and let Yixiu drive it all the way back to the imperial capital.
"Is my grandpa back?"
The old housekeeper slowly shook his head: "When I left the Chen Mansion, the master had not yet gone to court."
"Well, what happened to the escort robbery?" Chen Shen asked again.
"Eh? Master, you actually still remember this?" Yixiu was a little surprised.
"Haha, this is all the credit of that miracle doctor Zhang. It's a pity that he... Oh, let's forget about it."
Chen Shen casually made a haha, then asked back to the topic he was concerned about: "The escort team management has always been the financial lifeline of my Chen family. What happened to it?"
The old housekeeper sighed: "Oh! We had already sent people to investigate the site earlier."
"That escort team had a total of thirty escorts, five escorts, and one escort general. They all died on the spot, and no one was spared."
When Chen Shen heard this, his heart suddenly twitched.
In his memory, bodyguards refer to members of the Chen family who are in the five-star to nine-star realm of profound practitioners.
The Escort Master is stronger, which is the title given to the clan members who have reached the level of Xuan Shi in Xuan Qi cultivation, but are not satisfied with the five-star Xuan Shi.
As for the bodyguards, that's even more remarkable.
Usually, only those elites in the clan who are above the five-star Xuanshi level and have extremely rich combat experience can be awarded the title of "Guard General" when performing escort missions.
"That old dog from Ma Le Gobi, Chen Jinyang, really did it! They are all members of my Chen family!" Chen Shen couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
He had already learned from Chen Hu that the mastermind behind the robbery of the Chen family escort team was Chen Jinyang.
What a thief shouting and catching a thief trick!
And listening to Chen Hu’s voiceover at that time, I’m afraid this matter will continue for a long time.
Although Chen Shen intended to prevent the Chen family from suffering this disaster, it was a pity that he had no evidence (he did not use the crystal video in the first place because he was afraid that the truth about Chen Hu's death would be exposed). It is difficult to believe it just based on the yellow mouth and white teeth.
"We can no longer use overt sanctions. It seems we can only help each other secretly to reduce the casualties of escorts..."
After making up his mind, Chen Shen asked again: "Have you found the real murderer?"
"No." Yixiu shook his head: "The entire scene is composed of broken stones and broken trees destroyed by the power of Xuan Qi. Other than that, there are no valuable clues left."
"While this matter was being discussed, the Great Elder suddenly sensed that the Chenhu Soul Jade was broken, and the matter was delayed."
"That's it..." The young man in the sedan narrowed his eyes slightly, and then took out the talisman pen for refining the mysterious talisman and a piece of inferior mysterious beast inner skin from the space mysterious ring, and said something "swish" written on it.
.
After writing, he dried the ink, then folded it and gave it to Ikkyu. He said, "When my grandfather returns home, give this letter to him and ask him not to ask too many questions and just do as I say."
.Other matters will be taken care of by Ben Shao."
"In addition, I told grandpa to burn it immediately after reading it. You know, I know, and my grandpa know the content in it. Don't let the fourth person know."
Yixiu is an old friend who has been with Chen Zangfeng for more than fifty years. Chen Zangfeng trusts him, and Chen Shen naturally doesn't care either.
"Old slave, I understand!" Yixiu nodded solemnly.
"Okay, send me to the Imperial Capital Academy. Then tell my grandfather that I will be in seclusion in the academy to practice alchemy, so that he can feel at ease."
"But... Master, your safety?"
"Don't worry, no one will be stupid enough to do anything in the Imperial Academy." Chen Shen smiled freely.
In fact, he still had the second half of his sentence to say: Even if there were, it would only be Xia Caiyue and Shao Wenkai. I am looking forward to them coming...
At noon, the sun shines brightly.
The little princess was brought back to the harem. The queen was very angry because she went out without permission and ordered her to face the wall for ten days and not leave the palace.
This made Xia Qingchan very depressed. Before leaving, she pursed her lips and softly scolded Xia Caiyue as "traitor".
As for Xia Caiyue, this vicious woman was getting even more angry at the moment, scolding Chen Jinyang and his son no less than ten times from beginning to end!
A good plan was ruined inexplicably. As a result, the little princess was safe and sound, but a gap was created between her and her. This is not a good phenomenon.
At least, if Xia Caiyue wants to use the little princess to do something in the future, it will definitely not be as casual as before.
"Asshole... Could it be that this princess really can only wait for more than ten days before letting Chen Shen be exploded to death by the exploding Gu? No, no! Ten days is too long! I want him to die, the sooner.
good!"
…
On the other side, Chen Shen has returned to the Imperial Capital Academy.
His special tutor, Xia Qingchan, was placed in solitary confinement, and the dean, Liao Cangmang, has not returned yet.
So much so that his martial arts and alchemy masters had no time to talk to him.
Chen Shen was therefore very happy and relaxed. After asking Vice Dean Xiao Chenhuang to arrange a dormitory on campus for him, he wandered around the huge university.
This behavior seems so idle, but in fact, the young man is preparing for a great plan in the future...
