Chapter 377 The Strange Search for Someone in the Dark Night

Chu Liuchen finally stopped laughing when Qin Wanru looked so embarrassed and angry that he couldn't help it, and looked at Qin Wanru's handsome face with interest, which looked like a boy's tired one, lacking the elegance and calmness of the past. , as if walking down from the ink painting, looks very real

"Since you're hungry, why don't you eat?" He raised his head, looked at Qin Wanru and said with a smile.

Having lost his face, Qin Wanru felt that she didn't need to hide anything. She picked up her chopsticks and angrily picked up a piece of pastry and ate it without raising her head.

The pastry is very fragrant and glutinous, melts in your mouth, has a familiar taste, and it is still my favorite taste.

Looking at the pastry in front of her in astonishment, she was sure that she had never eaten it before, no matter the appearance or taste, but it still felt familiar, as if she had this taste deep in her memory.

Taking another bite, savoring it carefully, a trace of hesitation appeared in his eyes. Could it be that he had used it in his previous life? In my previous life, I had entered the palace, but why didn't I remember it?

"What, it doesn't taste right?" Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows. He restrained his laughter under the light and looked as gentle as jade.

"This tastes... very good!" Qin Wanru said, raising his water eyes, a pair of big round eyes fell on Chu Liuchen's face, hesitating a little, his long black eyelashes flickered twice on the water eyes, it seemed Some are as ignorant as deer.

"Of course it's good. This king specially asked the royal kitchen in the palace to make it!" Chu Liuchen said lazily.

"Your Highness also likes this taste?" Qin Wanru raised her eyes curiously.

"I don't like this sweet and greasy taste!" Chu Liuchen snorted coldly and said rather displeasedly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qin Wanru thanked him consciously.

"Since you like it, eat more. It's not easy for me to bring cakes out of the palace. But what's going on with your Qin Mansion? Don't you even let people eat well on New Year's Eve?" Chu Liuchen was quite disgusted. He looked at Qin Wanru and said, he also reached out leisurely to pick up the cake Qin Wanru used just now, took a bite, frowned and said, "It's so sweet!"

Are you still eating it if you dislike it so much? Qin Wanru watched speechlessly as Chu Liuchen took one bite after another, finishing up the pastry in his hand very gracefully, and then actually took another piece.

"If the prince doesn't like it, there's no need to use it!" Looking at the plate with only a few cakes in it, Qin Wanru decided to tell the truth. She hadn't used any of them yet, and this one had already used them all.

"I'm hungry!" Chu Liuchen said matter-of-factly, reaching out and tapping the plate in front of Qin Wanru, "I want to eat this!"

There were only two of them upstairs. Xiao Xuanzi was not there, and Chu Liuchen's handsome eyes were looking straight at Qin Wanru, waiting for her to come over.

After looking at the plate of pastries in front of him, Qin Wanru stood up helplessly, picked up the pastries in front of him and put them in front of Chu Liuchen.

Chu Liuchen looked really hungry, and even hungrier than Qin Wanru, who had screamed with hunger just now. Watching the picturesque young man eating was actually very pleasing to the eye, especially seeing his movements. It can be so elegant.

"My lord, are you full?" But even so, Qin Wanru still asked in surprise.

"Not full!" Chu Liuchen nodded.

"The food at the palace banquet is not delicious?" Qin Wanru asked strangely, would the food cooked in the imperial dining room in the palace not be delicious? The answer is of course no. She had tasted it just now and it was much more delicious than the one made by the new woman in her house.

"It's not suitable for people who eat!" Chu Liuchen said casually, put down the chopsticks in his hands, and said leisurely, tapping the table with his slender fingers a few times.

"The prince doesn't like to eat in the palace?" Qin Wanru became more and more curious.

"It's boring!" Chu Liuchen rarely answered questions. He seemed to be in a good mood. He raised his narrow eyes and picked Qin Wanru, "You don't think it's comfortable for me to have a banquet in the palace, do you?"

A deposed prince with a weak body, so what if the Queen Mother dotes on him, but the Emperor shows that he treats everyone equally as a prince?

There are so many people in the palace, what kind of person is there? He is a child without a father and a mother, and he is so sick and weak. To be able to reach this point, he will be looked at with blank eyes and heard a lot of gossip!

How could he really regard the people in the palace as his family? This feeling of being fatherless and motherless is just like myself, or even more uncomfortable than myself.

No matter how bad he was, he was just left out in the general's palace, and Qin Huaiyong had no other heirs, but the emperor was different. He had snatched the throne from him, and he also showed his disapproval of Chu Liu in a cowardly manner. How good is Chen!

But who knows what happens in private?

Imperial power has always been attractive, and most of the defeated party lost their lives. Chu Liuchen saved his life, but his life was probably inseparable from his own physical condition.

If he was really healthy, he might not survive.

How easy it is for an infant child to take his own life, even if the Queen Mother is protecting him!

His illness is both a cause and an effect!

There was an inexplicable pity in my heart. Chu Liuchen looked so beautiful on the surface, but in fact he had always been walking on thin ice!

Such a beautiful young man who walked out of the painting was actually not living a happy life. It could even be said that he was not safe. He was as fatherless and motherless as himself.

She reached out and moved the plates of dishes in front of her to Chu Liuchen. She could see clearly that the dishes just now were what Chu Liuchen liked to eat.

What I like to eat is just using two more chopsticks.

"What, you want to have dinner with me?" Chu Liuchen lazily watched Qin Wanru change the plates, his smile becoming more and more lazy.

"If the prince is hungry, use more!" Qin Wanru sighed helplessly.

"Since you want to have dinner with me so much, I will allow you to accompany me during the Chinese New Year!" Chu Liuchen raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Qin Wanru felt that he should take back his previous thoughts, what a waste of a prince, what a pity, this will definitely be an emperor with all the power in the world in the future, there is nothing to pity, he is the most pitiful one.

"Your Majesty, when will you return to the palace?"

"This king wants to keep vigil!" Chu Liuchen's face darkened and he said coldly, does this mean he is unhappy again?

"Shouldn't the prince return to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother to watch the night?" Qin Wanru asked cautiously, for fear of making the prince unhappy again.

"Is it possible that you don't want to accompany me to guard the place?" Chu Liuchen glanced sideways at her and asked.

"I don't dare, but I've been out of the house for a long time, and I'm afraid that my grandmother and mother will be worried!" Qin Wanru said more and more cautiously.

When Qin Yuru and the others found out that he was not there, they would definitely look for him. It would be bad if he never went back.

"What are you afraid of? I will send you back!" Chu Liuchen said casually, stood up and walked to the window. The gauze curtain in front of the window fell, but you could see the love outside the window.

The clear embroidered yarn can be seen outside at a glance, especially when the lights are brightly lit outside.

"Come here!" Chu Liuchen called Qin Wanru.

Qin Wanru stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the night. The night was clear, people were coming and going, and it was very lively. Even if she was farther away, she could still feel the excitement on the street.

"Look, over there!" Chu Liuchen reached over, took Qin Wanru to his side, and pointed at a place.

Qin Wanru staggered as he was being led, and bumped into Chu Liuchen. Only then did he stop and pay attention, but was attracted by the scene below. His long eyelashes fluttered, and he asked in surprise: "What are they looking for?" ?”

In the long street, there are several people who look different from the people around them, as if they are looking for something. Although they are dressed differently, they are all still young men. Some are standing on the porch of the shop, and some are in the crowd. , and some people followed the crowd.

If Qin Wanru hadn't been standing at a high place and could see clearly, no one would have thought there were similarities.

The last person among these people was the bookstore where Qin Wanru came out before. There seemed to be a few people standing in the shadows there. When a pair of ladies from aristocratic families walked by with their maids, a person came out of the bookstore. He stepped forward to stop them, and then stepped aside.

After a while, another pair of master and servant were stopped.

On the night of New Year's Eve, many ladies from aristocratic families came out to hang out with their people. It was almost invisible from the back, but Qin Wanru still felt keenly that the few pairs of masters and servants who were stopped were not very tall. An older lady from an aristocratic family.

"Looking for you! What did Zhuo Zhuo just do? Why did he offend someone?" Chu Liuchen said casually.

Because of the shock, Qin Wanru didn't even notice that Chu Liuchen's hand was still on her shoulder, and she called her by a nickname that only her grandmother could call her.

"Looking for me...why?" Qin Wanru said in horror, sweat dripping from her head for a while. If she had been hiding at the entrance of the alley just now, she was afraid that she would have been found.

Although she thought that the shopkeeper would send people to look for her, she didn't expect that the battle would be so large and so many people would be sent. What exactly did the words mean?

"What did you just do?" Chu Liuchen asked leisurely. After patting Qin Wanru's thin shoulder with his slender fingers, he moved upwards and touched the top of her black hair. He really felt more and more like himself. The fat cat I keep looks so similar to me, and it feels so comfortable to touch!

She closed her beautiful eyes slightly in great comfort.

"I saw a piece of calligraphy on the stage over there. It was very well written, so I wanted to inquire about it. I told the shopkeeper that I had a piece of calligraphy that I wanted to sell. The shopkeeper was very interested and told me that the calligraphy was from their owner. My favorite, I didn’t say anything after that, so I left. Who knew they would come looking for me!” Qin Wanru said nagging.

"Maybe you think it's too peaceful in this capital and want to try the royal method?" Chu Liuchen glanced at her playfully, patted her hair with his hand, his voice was lazy and gentle, but But there is a majesty and sinisterness hidden in it that makes people feel sad!

"What do you mean?" Qin Wanru's heart moved, her eyes suddenly tightened, and she clenched her hands tightly at the bottom of her sleeves. She raised her head and looked at Chu Liuchen, not knowing that what he said meant what she understood...
