The crowd was stunned.
Why didn't they notice that Prince Rong was so handsome before?
By the time they regained their senses, the person on the horse had already reached the palace gates. The crowd hurriedly chased after him.
The young man galloped through the bustling streets. His graceful movements attracted the attention of many girls.
"Who is that?"
"So handsome! Isn't he from the capital? I don't think I've seen him before … "
"Hey, that's the envoy to Red Star. He seems to be from the palace?"
"… Could it be Prince Rong?"
The crowd chattered amongst themselves, allowing them to piece together the truth.
"I used to think that Prince Rong was too delicate, but if that person was really Prince Rong, then I must have been blind."
"Prince Rong doesn't seem to have a wife …"
While these people were discussing, Shi Sheng had already left the city.
She told the guards to tell the group behind that she was waiting for them in Red Star.
She didn't want to follow the male and female leads. Even if she didn't cause trouble, others would cause trouble. In the end, she would be the one to be implicated.
The rule of villains was to not get too close to the main character.
As for whether the people behind her would come or not, she didn't care. She wasn't going to 'get married', she was going to look for someone.
Shi Sheng rode to the next city and changed into a carriage. When it came to showing off, it was fine when there were people around. When there were no people, she preferred a more comfortable environment.
The carriage was naturally slower, but compared to the large group behind, she was still quite fast.
"Young Master, it's going to rain heavily. There's an inn up ahead. Why don't we stop today?" The coachman asked Shi Sheng from outside.
Shi Sheng lifted the curtain to take a look. The weather was gloomy and the wind was blowing. It was bitterly cold. Winter was coming …
Shi Sheng listened to the coachman's suggestion and decided to stay at an inn.
This inn was the only one in the vicinity. There were many people lodging there. Most of them were people of the jianghu, dressed casually. There were also merchants and families who were on their way.
Shi Sheng, who was dressed luxuriously and looked exquisite, immediately attracted a lot of attention when he stood inside.
The chatter in the hall instantly died down.
"Innkeeper, please take care of the horses." The coachman followed Shi Sheng in and shouted at the busy innkeeper.
"Alright, please come in." The waiter immediately put down the things in his hands and welcomed them in. Probably because he had seen all kinds of people coming and going, the waiter seemed to be calmer than the others.
Shi Sheng ignored the stares and calmly asked the clerk at the counter for two rooms.
As long as they stayed in an inn, the Shi Sheng would ask for two rooms.
The coachman had refused before, but regardless of whether he wanted to stay or not, this young master insisted on two rooms, so the coachman could only silently accept.
After Shi Sheng went upstairs, the hall became lively again.
The inn was filled with people from all over the world. After eating, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep. Nothing happened.
The next day, when Shi Sheng woke up, he saw the coachman and some other people standing at the entrance of the inn. All of them looked miserable.
Shi Sheng looked out of the door. The sound of the rain was like a 3D surround sound. The rain poured down like a waterfall. The strong wind brought the rainwater in, and it was cold.
It was impossible to leave in such a heavy rain.
Everyone stood at the entrance for a while. They guessed that the rain would not stop for a while. Some went back to their rooms, while some went back to eat.
The coachman turned around and saw Shi Sheng standing on the stairs. He quickly trotted over and said, "Young master, the rain is too heavy. We have to wait until it stops."
"Okay, let's eat." Shi Sheng nodded.
Shi Sheng ordered breakfast. The coachman also had breakfast, but he did not sit at the same table as Shi Sheng. In Shi Sheng's words, not everyone was qualified to sit at the same table as her.
The rain fell from morning to evening. It showed no signs of stopping.
Shi Sheng looked at the heavy rain outside from her room. 'This rain is so weird …'
Just as this thought appeared in Shi Sheng's mind, a black dot in the rain started moving towards them.
It was getting closer and closer …
Shi Sheng: "…"
I just want to avoid them and travel quietly. Why is it so difficult?!
Mr. Plotline, aren't you forcing her to her death?
Would it kill her to let her act cool in peace?
How infuriating!
[…] You are cannon fodder to begin with.
What's wrong with cannon fodder? Do cannon fodder have no human rights? Does cannon fodder deserve to be a stepping stone for the male and female protagonists?
[…] Did the host take the wrong medicine?
I didn't take my medicine today.
Shi Sheng closed the window, but the sound of the rain could still be heard.
Their team had encountered bandits. They had been chased all the way here, and many of them had been injured.
With so many people, the inn, which originally had some empty seats, was immediately filled. Moreover, there weren't enough rooms. The hall was filled with people.
"Don't tell me the bandits you're talking about are the bandits roaming around nearby?" a scholarly man asked worriedly in the crowd.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem? "the person beside Chu Luo immediately asked.
The scholar's expression was ugly. "I heard that those bandits used to be soldiers. Later on, for some reason, they went up the mountain and became bandits. All of them have martial arts skills. Those who are targeted by them won't have a good ending. You said they were chasing you … They wouldn't have chased you all the way here, right? "
Other than the scholar, there were also some people who had heard the rumors about those bandits and added on.
These bandits could be said to be deranged. Not only did they rob money, but they also didn't take lives. They wouldn't let off the old, weak, women, and children.
This setting was simply a newspaper. How was this robbery?
How could one not encounter robbery in the pugilistic world? The people in the pugilistic world were calmer, but some ordinary passers-by seemed a little nervous.
"If the bandits really come, what should we do?" someone complained.
"How could you lure the bandits here?" someone reprimanded.
"Are these bandits as powerful as you say?" someone asked in confusion.
The hall was noisy, and there were all kinds of comments. However, most people still blamed Chu Luo and her group for luring the bandits here.
"Don't worry, everyone. We won't implicate you," Liu Ziyan shouted. Liu Ziyan shouted, "We were chased by them because we weren't prepared. If they really come, we'll take care of them."
The hall instantly fell silent as everyone looked at Liu Ziyan.
Chu Luo was standing beside Liu Ziyan. Although he was drenched by the rain, even if the male lead was a dog, he would still exude a powerful aura.
It was obvious that he wasn't someone to be trifled with.
But … but there would always be blind cannon fodder who would send themselves to death. A man in the corner stood up and asked sharply, "Are you very powerful? There are so many people here. If the bandits really chase after you, how can you guarantee the safety of so many people? "
Liu Ziyan frowned. "I said I'll guarantee your safety, so I'll guarantee your safety."
