C273 eavesdrop

Looking at the astonished gazes of the people around me, I could only lower my head and shrink my own presence.

"Shameful." I hid behind Bai Jing.

"It's not the first time." She was honest enough to expose me.

The so-called farewell banquet was like having a meal together and then exchanging greetings with each other. They were just saying something about not wishing to be together forever.

Of course, this is only the surface peace. In the few days that I've been here, I roughly know that peace is only on the surface. Because the countries' strengths are mutually controlling, they can only conceal their ambitions.

Four countries, no absolute allies, no absolute enemies. Each country was secretly accumulating troops, and they even had their own spies in each country. However, it had become a secret that no one knew about among the kings.

I don't know whether this apparent peace will last until I leave here, and I think this is the best time to watch everyone with glasses and talk and laugh.

"What are you thinking?" Yanyue interrupted me, who was in a daze.

"I wonder how long this wonderful peace will last?" I held my chest and my eyes were indifferent.

My words caused everyone to turn silent. They all understood the current situation, but no one knew that it might be tomorrow or next year. The people who were still calling each other brothers would most likely clash their swords with each other.

"Who knows what will happen in the future." She smiled and broke the silence.

I smiled in relief and raised my glass. "Let's toast to the peace and comfort of today."

The faces of the few of them also turned clear as they smiled at each other. As their wine cups clattered against each other, they emitted a crisp sound. Then, they raised their heads and downed their wine in one gulp.

After that, the banquet started. I took a glance and saw that the dishes were still similar. I felt that I had no appetite, so I moved my chopsticks a few times and gave up.

Bai Jing originally wanted to come with me, but he was held back by the two princes of Xuanyin Country, who were toasting him.

Although Bai Jing was unwilling, he couldn't refuse. He could only stay behind, I assured him, and then led Xia Shui out.

Outside, I greedily breathed in the fresh air. I felt that my entire body had relaxed a lot as I stretched my muscles.

"Princess, your physique is a bit better. "It's better not to blow too much." Xia Shui said to me in concern.

"It's okay, the wind is so small, I'm not Lin Daiyu, there's no way I can blow it away." I turned around and joked with Xia Shui.

Xia Shui was confused, "Miss, who is Lin Daiyu?"

"A very delicate girl." I said vaguely.

"Xia Shui, the banquet can't end right now, it's too stuffy inside, let's go walk around the imperial garden," I don't care about Xia Shui's objections and pulled her along.

When people were in a bad mood, they would look at the mountains, look at the water, and look at the flowers, plants, and trees.

Ever since I became a psychic envoy, I could feel the agility of this flower and this tree, and the love I had for them deepened.

Just like that, I aimlessly walked with Xia Shui until we came to the side of a fake mountain. I felt that it was familiar, and suddenly remembered that I smelled a familiar smell.

I was overjoyed. I finally found this place. I quickly walked over and stuck close to the rock garden. I began to sniff around like a puppy. Smelling around, sniffing around. However, there was no longer any familiar scent.

"Princess." What are you smelling? " Xia Shui looked at me curiously.

"Nothing." Embarrassed, I stood still. It seems that the clues have been cut off.

Some long time, feel a bit numb feet, I leaned on the rockery, kneading my legs.

Just as I was getting bored, I suddenly heard strange sounds coming from the other side of the rockery.

Curious, I stuck to the fake mountain and started to listen carefully. Since Xia Shui wanted to talk to me, I quickly made her quiet down.

"Shh." I pointed to the fake mountain, and indicated for Xia Shui to come over and listen.

Xia Shui cutely leaned on the fake mountain, but after half a day, her face was filled with frustration. "Princess, there's no sound at all."

I thought about it, my hearing was originally different from ordinary people, I couldn't even hear clearly, so there was no need to talk about Xia Shui, it seemed like the person who was speaking was really far away from us.

I continued to listen, and what I heard was a clatter, as if it were a walk, and it sounded more than one person.

"Have you found it?" I frowned. Why do you seem so familiar, I just can't remember who it is.

"No, but it is very likely to be in the hands of the Prince Jing. I found out that the last time I saw this thing, it was at the Prince Jing's mother's place. very possibly, it was passed down to the Prince Jing. " A slightly sharper voice sounded from the other side.

The voice of the man behind me was strange, as if it had never appeared in my memory.

When I heard them mention Bai Jing, my vigilance immediately increased. My heartbeat slowed down as I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to clearly hear what they had said.

"You must obtain it before others. No matter what methods you use, do not wait to harm Princess of Rong."

A voice that was slightly familiar to me came over, then it stopped and followed by the sound of footsteps walking further and further away.

After I couldn't hear the footsteps anymore, I leaned back against the fake mountain. The doubts in my heart were endless.

"What's wrong, Princess?" What did you hear? You don't look too good. " Xia Shui's face was filled with worry.

"Who could it be? Why does it feel so familiar, but I can't tell who it is. " I said to myself.

"What is that sound?" Princess, don't scare me like that. Are you bewitched? " Xia Shui was shocked by my actions and rushed over to shake my shoulders.

"Ai ai ai ai, Xia Shui, stop shaking, I'm dizzy." I pressed down on Xia Shui.

"Princess, it wasn't easy for you to return to normal. Why are you spouting nonsense that I don't understand now?"

"You're the one who's talking nonsense, you're cursing your young lady." I pinched Xia Shui's cheek.

Then he patted the dust off his butt. He arrogantly went back the same way he came, I was an idiot, but Xia Shui had great ability to know the way, and quickly brought me out of the garden.

When we reached the garden gate, a dark figure bumped into me.

"Ouch." Because I was still thinking about what just happened, I didn't pay attention to it and directly fell backwards.

Just as I thought I was about to make a close contact with the ground, the shadow caught me and I did not fall.

"Phew, that was close. I scared the baby to death. I looked at the floor, close at hand, and let out a long breath, clutching my chest.

"Are you alright?"
