Chapter 49: "This Prince only needs the Princess."

Start from the beginning
                                    

Xiao Jin did not expect such a ridiculous reason.

Then she remembered what Xiao Shuang had said before.

On the surface, Xiao Shuang seemed to want her to practice swordsmanship, but in reality, her intentions were probably more than that.

If she wanted to win over the Minister of War by using Shen Shuang, it would be reasonable.

However, Chu Shao had just caught Xiao Shuang and the Fourth Prince's secret conversation last night, and Xiao Shuang sent Shen Shuang to teach swordsmanship right after that. It seemed a bit suspicious.

Although the possibility was very small, if Shen Shuang was really Xiao Shuang's spy, then...

Did Shen Shuang come to test Chu Shao on purpose?

Thinking of this, Xiao Jin frowned and was about to refuse Shen Shuang.

Unexpectedly, Chu Shao spoke first and smiled, "Miss Shen, if you came here to teach the Prince swordsmanship, I'm afraid there is no need."

Looking at the smile on Chu Shao's lips, Shen Shuang didn't know why, but she didn't want to appear weak in front of her.

She just straightened her back, but when she saw Chu Shao's eyebrows and eyes, her voice unconsciously became low and slow, "Why does the princess say that?"

Chu Shao didn't notice Shen Shuang's awkwardness at all, she just smiled and said, "Because I am already here."

Shen Shuang thought, teaching Xiao Jin swordsmanship seemed to have no conflict with standing here with Chu Shao?

But Chu Shao said slowly, "With me here, no one can harm the Prince."

This statement had a strong sense of dominance.

However, Xiao Jin did not feel sweet, but rather stunned.

Chu Shao knew that Shen Shuang was sent by Xiao Shuang.

Then, did she... expose her own martial arts secret so blatantly in front of Shen Shuang?

This crazy behavior really shocked Xiao Jin.

She had evidence and reasonable suspicion that Chu Shao was actually a spy sent by the opposing side.

In fact, Chu Shao didn't intend to reveal this.

But when she heard that Shen Shuang was going to teach Xiao Jin swordsmanship and made a gesture of wanting to protect her, her mood inexplicably became less pleasant.

Chu Shao's lips were curved in a smile, but she was thinking, why does Shen Shuang want to teach Xiao Jin swordsmanship?

Since Xiao Jin already has her, why does she still need Shen Shuang?

Looking at Shen Shuang's bewildered expression, Chu Shao knew she didn't understand her meaning, so she smiled and looked at Xiao Jin, asking, "Your highness, don't you have me? Isn't that enough?"

"..."

Faced with Chu Shao's gentle gaze, Xiao Jin replied awkwardly, "Yes."

Although Shen Shuang didn't want to teach Xiao Jin anything, she still didn't quite understand what Chu Shao was saying.

She asked in confusion, "But, Your Highness, you don't know martial arts..."

She didn't say the next sentence, but those who understood it, understood.

If you don't know martial arts, how can you protect Xiao Jin just by standing here?

Chu Shao was now with her back to Shen Shuang, and the smile on her face had disappeared completely.
