Stay calm, don't panic, Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to reveal more news

"How are your preparations for this year's Autumn Examination going?"

The prince asked kindly. Gu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up.

"Your Highness, Gu Cheng has confidence."

He studied hard all these years just to achieve success and fame.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the palace examination next year."

The prince's words meant to recruit him, which made Gu Cheng happy.

With someone like him, even if he has the ability, he still needs time to accumulate experience after entering officialdom.

If you have someone to help you, things will naturally go more smoothly.

Gu Cheng was not a pedantic person, he knew how to take advantage of the situation.

He knew a lot about the Crown Prince and knew that he was a fair and wise crown prince. He was willing to serve such a person in the future.

"Gu Cheng will definitely live up to your highness' trust."

Gu Cheng bent his body and was helped up by the prince.

"I came here today to accompany my sister. You are more familiar with the academy than I am. You can lead the way and introduce a few things along the way."

After the prince mentioned this, Gu Cheng dared to look at the little guy in the palace maid's arms.

Beautiful, graceful, innocent...

For a moment, many beautiful words popped up in Gu Cheng's mind.

Her Royal Highness the Princess is truly perfect in appearance.

There was a flash of surprise in Gu Cheng's eyes. He didn't ask any more questions, but just obeyed and led the two nobles.

On the same road, I met many people who were watching secretly.

Amid those complicated gazes, Gu Cheng seemed a little restrained, while the prince was open and frank.

With his status, there were many people who could guide him, but he chose Gu Cheng to tell everyone that in his heart, there was no distinction between family backgrounds.

It makes no difference whether they are from aristocratic families or poor families, he only chooses useful people.

Although the gap between the two sides cannot be eliminated in a short period of time, the competition between the two sides in the academy will be alleviated in the future.

There is still a long way to go, so take your time to change.

The academy has white walls and black tiles, and its architectural style tends to be graceful and elegant like that of the south.

The corridors are separated and the courtyards are scattered.

Spread out before you is a beautiful picture.

Everything here was new to Ji Qionghua. She was held by Mu Yue and admired the scenery here.

Occasionally, when she comes across an interesting place, she will come down and take a stroll.

The only bad thing was that before she had enough fun, the sky suddenly turned gloomy, and the rain formed a curtain of rain and fell to the ground.

It rains a lot in spring.

Fortunately, the place they were going to was very close to Gu Cheng's dormitory. After obtaining the prince's consent, he took the two nobles back to the dormitory.

After passing through a door, you will see neatly arranged houses.

Each person has a room and the treatment is excellent.

Gu Cheng opened the door and let the two in. The noisy sound of rain washed away the rest of the noise.

Amid the sounds of nature, they heard movement in the next house.

It wasn't an argument, it was just a one-man show of abuse.

"Damn it, my house stinks every time it rains. Which bedbug died in my house?"

"Mad!"

Those words aroused the prince's suspicion, and Gu Cheng began to explain.

"The person next door is Brother Xiang Yuanliang."

"After returning from the New Year, I don't know why, but there is always a strange smell in the house. This smell is more obvious when the weather is humid."

"He is applying to change his dormitory, but it has not been approved yet."

The environment of the academy is naturally good, and Xiang Yuanliang is not a sloppy person, and the room is very tidy.

He had checked before and couldn't find the source of the smell.

Xiang Yuanliang, who was immersed in the strange smell every day, found it difficult to accept it. In addition, the other party had a bad temper, so he was prone to swearing.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Gu Cheng apologized on behalf of Xiang Yuanliang unintentionally.

"It doesn't matter."

The prince, who was very reasonable, had no intention of punishing him.

After entering the room, Ji Qionghua was let down and was now standing facing the wall on Xiang Yuanliang's side as punishment.

That little look of him facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes is so adorable.

There was a hint of smile in Gu Cheng's eyes.

In fact, he knew this Ninth Princess. Miss Liu mentioned her to him and said that this Ninth Princess was very likable.

Sure enough.

"Brother Emperor!"

Ji Qionghua didn't care about Gu Cheng's peeking. She grabbed the prince's clothes and pulled them.

"Play!"

The little guy's overbearing remarks are never rejected.

"Qiong Huaer wants to go play next door?"

The prince asked, thoughtfully.

Qiong Huaer from his family would not do something without a purpose. If something could attract her, it means there is gossip to be found over there.

The prince, who was secretly feeling uneasy, picked up the little girl happily after she nodded innocently.

"Come on, I'll take you to see it."

He called Gu Cheng to follow.

Gu Cheng had no doubts. In his opinion, the little princess was still young and was curious.

The houses are next to each other and are just a few steps away.

It was raining outside, but the windows and doors in the house were open.

There was also a young man inside who was fanning the room with a fan, trying to drive away the bad smell.

But he was so busy that the smell did not dissipate.

The prince, who was standing at the door, smelled the odor.

He put his sleeves on Ji Qionghua's face to help her block out the odor.

[This taste is quite strong. Xiao Liuzi will definitely like it. ]

If I were to ask why this is the case, I would only say that it stinks here!

It smells like dung.

Obviously, there is no monkey shit here.

As Gu Cheng said, the house was very clean and everything was arranged in order.

"How did you come?"

"Who is this?"

When Xiang Yuanliang saw Gu Cheng, he asked in frustration, as he did not recognize the prince.

"This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has come to my house to take shelter from the rain."

These words made Xiang Yuanliang want to kneel down and salute, but the prince exempted him.

"No need to be polite."

"I heard from Gu Cheng that there is a bad smell in your house that is hard to get rid of?"

After the prince walked in, he observed the house. The walls were painted cleanly and the floor was flat, so he couldn't see anything special.

"Yes, to be honest with you, Your Highness, I don't know why, but after I came back after the New Year, the house smelled weird, and I couldn't find the reason."

"I even suspected that someone was trying to harm me. I waited for a long time and realized that I was just overthinking."

"It's really weird."

Xiang Yuanliang scratched his head, his movements a little stiff.

【No one is going to harm you.】

Ji Qionghua came down from the prince's arms again. She was a small girl with two pigtails, so cute.

When Xiang Yuanliang looked at her big eyes, he inexplicably saw a sense of pity in them.

In the sight of several people, Ji Qionghua staggered around the room, then stood in front of a wall and continued his research.

That focused gaze made Xiang Yuanliang wonder inwardly, wondering what was on the wall.

I felt anxious.

【There is a ghost in the wall. 】

The prince raised his eyebrows at this. Mu Yue, who was standing at the door, looked in. If anything unexpected happened, she could rush in at any time to protect the little princess.

[There is someone else who is the victim in this room, haha…]

[Now it is a specimen in this wall. 】

[The person who hid the body was a poor worker and didn't do a good job of preserving it. It was rainy in spring, and in the dampness, bacteria multiplied, so that smell came out.]

[This peculiar smell is the smell of a rotting corpse. ]
