It is not a problem to find some firewood to keep warm.
After walking for a while, Su Yu heard a noisy sound not far away. There was a pavilion over there. Usually, there were many young men from wealthy families reciting poems and composing couplets there. It seemed that they happened to meet each other today.
Su Yu was stunned for a moment, tilted his head and frowned, thinking carefully, his pair of black eyes were dark, and no one knew what he was thinking. Finally, he turned around and planned to walk around this group of people.
However, he wanted to go around it, but the noblemen who had already seen him were unwilling to let him go.
"Isn't this Prince Xiao? Why did he come here in the middle of winter without any followers? It's so dangerous." There was some ill intention in these words.
Su Yu pursed her lips and tightened her fingers slightly.
In a small teahouse not far away, the girl who was eating golden pastry with chopsticks paused.
The maid standing behind her hurried forward, bowed and said respectfully, "Princess, what's wrong?"
Chu Ci tilted her head, a gleam of light flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she turned to look out the window.
Although it was a bit far away, one could still vaguely see a few playboys who usually only knew how to have fun surrounding a short man.
Chu Ci responded softly without saying anything, with a hint of confusion in her eyes. She stuffed the remaining golden crisp on the chopsticks into her mouth, swallowed it, and bit the chopsticks.
The whole person looked a little dazed and confused. The girl of sixteen or seventeen years old already had some baby fat and was fair and tender. When she made such a move, even the maid next to her couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. Thinking of the love that the ladies in the palace had for their princess, they couldn't help but sigh.
Such a lovely and wonderful girl, even she wanted to pinch the princess's soft cheeks when looking at her. No wonder she is so popular.
Chu Ci let go of her chopsticks and looked at the maid behind her. A soft, emotionless voice sounded, "Sheng He, did you hear anything?"
"Huh? What's that sound? Is the princess possessed by a nightmare again? Do you want me to go and ask Imperial Physician Wang to come?" Sheng He's voice sounded a little anxious. This was obviously not the first time such a situation had occurred.
"No need, I'm fine." Seeing Sheng He's confused expression, Chu Ci withdrew his gaze, but did not reply, with some thought in his eyes.
Actually, it’s nothing. Since she was a child, she seemed to be different from others and could hear sounds that many people could not hear.
It's just that the sound was so soft that she always thought it was an auditory hallucination. But it was the same sound once or twice that made her feel a little confused. Later, when she asked again, she was directly diagnosed as being possessed by a nightmare. However, after drinking a lot of bitter medicine and the nightmare didn't go away at all, Chu Ci basically didn't tell anyone around her about this matter.
However, in the past years, that somewhat cold voice kept repeating something like 'failed to connect to the host, reconnect again...' in my ears.
But today is a little different.
Chu Ci tilted his head and thought, put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip of water.
His cheeks puffed out slightly.
The sound was louder than usual and very different from usual.
