In fact, if we're talking about knowing how to survive, then there definitely are.
Having lived here for a year or two, he actually understood the rules of survival quite well.
When Xiao Xiyou heard this while sitting in the carriage, his expression was slightly complicated.
He knew that things might differ from what he imagined, but he didn't expect the difference to be so great.
He still didn't realize what was happening until the child got on the carriage with the tattered clothes.
Zhou Zhizhi gave an awkward laugh, knowing that the child did indeed have a bit of an odor, but there was nothing else she could do, as it was extremely cold outside.
"Your Highness, you wouldn't mind, would you?"
She was being a bit manipulative with those words, but ultimately it was just a slight compliment.
The Second Prince himself knew very well what kind of person he was.
Of course, one must be very cautious and careful.
There's nothing we can do about it right now.
Xiao Xiyou snorted coldly: "Now you want to ask me if I mind? Why didn't you ask before? You only started asking after you brought the person here, is that it?"
Zhou Zhizhi was slightly embarrassed by the question.
But in the end, he didn't say anything more.
“You sit here.”
Amu saw the extremely handsome man in the carriage and kept gripping his trouser leg tightly with one hand.
They do seem to be a little scared.
Xiao Xiyou's brows and eyes seemed to hold an unyielding ice that had remained for a thousand years.
He looked at the child calmly, lost in thought.
Although Zhou Zhizhi said she felt the atmosphere was a little cold, it was ultimately her idea.
As if suddenly remembering something, Zhou Zhizhi straightened up, figuring that since she was having a mental conversation with the system, no one else could hear her.
"System, come out quickly!"
After Zhou Zhizhi shouted in her mind, the system was so startled that it immediately appeared.
[Host, what is it?]
Zhou Zhizhi slowly curled the corners of her mouth into a smile.
"Didn't you say that saving people would earn me points? How many points do I have left?"
Although she saved Amu willingly.
But ultimately, adhering to the principle of getting as many points as possible, I still asked.
The system is currently querying for you...
[Host, you have 20 points left. Saving someone now will add another 5 points, for a total of 25.]
Zhou Zhizhi was very satisfied after hearing this.
It seems that saving this child was really worthwhile.
If you run out of points, you'll die instantly.
She's never been stupid, and the system hasn't assigned any tasks lately.
They're probably still preparing something big, and they definitely need to do some comprehensive things and make preparations as early as possible.
"Congratulations, host. This child is no ordinary person. You should be careful."
"If it's raised well, it'll probably be in a more central position, but if it's not raised well, the host will have to be careful."
Zhou Zhizhi was slightly surprised.
I glanced at him again and saw the little kid sitting obediently next to me, his two hands still gripping his trouser legs.
He felt like he was looking at Amu, who raised his head and stared at Zhou Zhizhi with his dark eyes.
Those small eyes were filled with grievance and innocence.
Zhou Zhizhi suddenly felt guilty, smiled gently, and patted Amu's head with one hand.
Amur's face turned slightly red, as if she was a little scared and embarrassed.
Because his hair was indeed quite dirty; it hadn't been washed in a long time.
Zhou Zhizhi didn't notice this and even thought the little guy was very cute.
"What's the problem?"
"This little guy can still bend it back, there's nothing seriously wrong with him, why are you always overthinking things?"
"You must be the most worried system in your system world, right?"
Zhou Zhizhi kept chatting with the system.
But what she didn't expect was that the system seemed to have suddenly thought of something.
[Host, someone will attempt to assassinate the Second Prince tonight.]
You must protect him!
Zhou Zhizhi: "???"
"It has to be you again. I'm telling you the truth, and you start talking to me about work again?"
"Damn system!"
Zhou Zhizhi was furious, but the Second Prince...
As if she had thought of something, she turned her head and saw Xiao Xiyou with his eyes closed.
I'm sure he was worried sick about this last night.
I'm feeling a bit tired now.
I used to think he was a good person, but after witnessing his methods, I really felt that he was the biggest villain.
"Who wants to kill the Second Prince?"
The system was originally intended to detect at least a few issues at the most critical moment, but unexpectedly, it started making crackling electrical noises at that time.
Zhou Zhizhi was furious.
This system has been making a terrible racket during the most crucial stages of this period.
After cursing inwardly a few times, he finally understood the reason.
The second prince will be assassinated tonight.
Logically speaking, bestowing the title of prince should not have much impact on the throne.
But even if the throne were officially established, the emperor could pass it on to whomever he pleased.
Now, the most likely candidates are actually the Third Prince and the Empress.
The things I mentioned today have actually made them incredibly angry.
A prince born to a former palace maid still has the nerve to swagger around here.
If it gets out of control, who can tolerate that?
Therefore, it is highly likely that the Empress and the Third Prince joined forces.
As for the motives of the Third Prince and the Empress, they are actually quite bad.
Zhou Zhizhi mentally reviewed all of these events.
A fool is a fool, and there's no way to change that.
But to start an assassination in the middle of the night, and considering that she and he were alone together, it was a dangerous situation.
Zhou Zhizhi got a headache just thinking about this.
This lousy system always fails at the most crucial moments.
They still haven't said how to save him/her.
Zhou Zhizhi was extremely anxious, but she couldn't get the system to respond no matter what she tried.
At that moment, the second prince seemed to sense his gaze and suddenly opened his eyes.
Those eyes seemed to be staring straight at her.
Zhou Zhizhi gave an awkward laugh and quickly turned around.
Xiao Xiyou gave a cryptic smile, then closed his eyes again.
I don't know what he's thinking, but it seems like he's thought of something very interesting.
