Don't be crazy, don't wear fast

Chapter 404 The Black Sword Spirit of the Wasted Prince ([-])
The deposed prince was imprisoned in an abandoned mansion.

The soldiers who were in charge of imprisoning him, as well as the maids and eunuchs who were in charge of serving him, were basically people who had no background, no relatives, no reason, no choice, or who had offended the superior.

Those who are a little bit capable are not willing to be dispatched to this place, because everyone knows that it is impossible for the deposed prince to go back.

Staying here with him is not much different from going to jail.

It is estimated that there will never be a day when he will be so successful in his life.

The only thing they are grateful for is that they can go shopping on the street or go home during their breaks.

And the only chance for the deposed prince to leave this mansion is probably when he is put into a coffin and transported out after his death?

It is precisely because of this that no matter whether it is the soldiers guarding him or the maids and eunuchs who are responsible for taking care of him, they can hide as far as they can, and it is impossible to serve him wholeheartedly.

And his original confidant either died or was sent to the frontier.

So much so that he couldn't even find a useful person around him.

Li Xu stood at the highest place in the palace, looking down at the surroundings.

He could see the imperial palace in the distance, he could also see the crowds on the street, and he could even see the soldiers who were hiding because of the heavy snow.

His eyes were calm, neither sad nor happy, looking down on everything like a god.

At this moment, he saw two court ladies walking towards this side, blaming each other not far away.

"Shouldn't you come to deliver the food? Why didn't you come?"

"Aren't you the same? Did you come the day you were in charge?"

The two blamed each other, resenting each other for being lazy and not delivering food to the prince.

And the old eunuch following them was staring at them coldly.

"Shut up, everyone. If His Royal Highness is gone, none of your family will survive! You'd better pray that he is still alive now, instead of blaming each other and trying to shirk each other. Do you think you can shirk responsibility with a few arguments? Or can it change your fate of beheading?"

The two maids didn't dare to speak anymore, and they ran towards the palace where the prince was imprisoned, wiping away their tears.

With Li Xu's current state of qinggong, it is not difficult to leave here, and the sword spirit can also give him considerable help.

But he has no plans to leave here for the time being.

Although he was freezing to death without eating or drinking here, one thing he had to admit was that it was very quiet and safe, and there were basically no other people in sight.

So before he had no intention of leaving, he didn't want anyone to notice his strangeness.

So when those people first stepped into the palace, he was already standing there, blocking their way.

Just kidding, didn't you see him take off his coat?
When they saw the quilt on the bed, he still had to use his brains to find an excuse to explain it. It would be better not to let them in.

Seeing him standing at the door, the two maids breathed a sigh of relief, including the old eunuch.

The deposed prince can die, but he must not die under their guard.

In other words, it doesn't matter how you torture him, but his life must not be lost.

Otherwise, everyone here will be buried with him!
Seeing that he seemed to be fine, the old eunuch stepped forward and saluted him.

Because he has been demoted to a commoner, this ceremony is just a salute between ordinary people, not a courtesy for the lower-ranking people to the higher-ranking ones.

"It's been a bit cold recently, do you need to bring you something warm?"

Of course he couldn't say that he came to see if he was dead, he could only find a reason at random.

It's just that his reason made Li Xu really feel a little funny.

In such a cold day, it was still snowing outside, and the snow was thick enough to bury half of a person's thighs.

Isn't it ridiculous to ask him if he needs something to keep warm on such a day?
Li Xu looked at him, then glanced at the two maids.

I don't know why, but the look in their eyes is almost the same as usual, but it makes all three of them feel a chill of fear.

Li Xu said calmly: "If you have nothing to do in the future, don't come here."

"How can we do that, we still need to deliver food to you!" The two maids said hastily.

Even if they didn't want to do this kind of thing anymore, today they felt the machete that almost fell on their necks, which made them almost scared out of their wits.

Li Xu said with an unchanged expression: "You didn't deliver the food two days ago, so I'm okay? If you have nothing to do in the future, don't come back. Otherwise, I don't know what I will say or do. "

The faces of the two maids and the old eunuch changed at the same time, and they all heard a hint of threat from his words.

What happened this time was indeed their negligence, and they were lazy and didn't deliver food because of the heavy snow for days.

The two maids thought that the other party gave it away, anyway, each of them got a meal, and it shouldn't matter if one less time was given.

As a result, they accidentally discovered that the other party thought the same way!

That also means that the prince has not eaten a single meal for so many days.

Realizing this, they were already sure that the prince must be dead.

Unexpectedly, not only did the prince not die, but he was more energetic than before.

This gave them a feeling of chills on their backs... Is the prince in front of them a human or a ghost?
"This, this is probably not in compliance with the rules." The old eunuch suppressed the fear in his heart and bowed deeply.

He can live to this age, he doesn't think too much anymore, he just wants to live well until the end of his life.

He is too old to have the energy to climb up, he just wants to spend the rest of his life in this quiet place, and it would be nice to have a thin coffin and a place to bury his bones.

He really didn't want to encounter anything beyond the plan!

But the waste prince in front of him gave him a special feeling.

This feeling was never given to him before.

If it wasn't for the fact that the person in front of him looked exactly the same as before, even the position of the red mole on his neck was exactly the same, he would have almost thought that the deposed prince had actually been replaced by a different person.

Since the person is still the same person, the thing that can change his temperament greatly is probably what the two maids did before that angered him.

After all, no matter how you say, he is also a prince. Since he was young, he was well-clothed and well-fed. How can two court ladies be bullied?

In his opinion, because of this incident, the deposed prince finally couldn't bear it anymore, revealing his ferocious minions at the tip of the iceberg.

According to the maids, at least for many days, they haven't delivered a meal to the deposed prince.

If it was an ordinary person who hadn't eaten for such a long time, and it was in this cold winter, he would have died long ago.

Looking at the waste prince in front of him, not only is he not dead, but he seems to be a little fatter than before, at least his skeleton-like thin body seems to have grown some flesh.

This can only show one thing, that is, someone gave him something to eat!
