Because there are too few supplies allocated to him, including candles for lighting, they have to be used sparingly.
At night when he occasionally feels scared, Liu Xiuhe loves the moonlight coming in from the window very much.
When it was summer, other palaces had enough ice cubes to cool off, but his side naturally didn't have any.
Only by opening the windows slightly to expose the gaps can the night breeze cool off.
As for the cold in winter, after the windows are closed, every place in the house has the same temperature, so there is no need to make a special choice.
So, he specifically asked the nanny to move his bed here.
At this moment, Liu Xiuhe heard something outside the window gently tapping on the frame, making a slight "bang bang" sound.
The sound was so inconspicuous that he almost mistakenly thought it was the sound from his stomach just now.
"Who?" Liu Xiuhe sat up, did not approach, but curled up on the bed, tightly covering the quilt, with a small white face.
I don't know if it's from hunger or fright.
The words of the two eunuchs during the day suddenly appeared in his mind.
Ghost cries at night, women in white clothes
These key words rang in his ears repeatedly.
It is true that many people died in the palace, not only innocent maids and eunuchs, but also concubines and children who failed to compete for favor and were set up by others.
Even though Liu Xiuhe is young, he has heard of it a lot.
There are more ghost stories about the cold palace.
Usually Liu Xiuhe didn't care about these things, but today he was probably in a very low mood, and when he was in a weak state, he became afraid when he thought of these things.
He even imagined a picture of a woman hanging upside down bumping her head against his window outside.
After the voice was asked, no one answered outside the window.
It's just that the knocking sound stopped for a while, and then it rang again.
Liu Xiuhe was thinking whether to wake up his mother loudly, but he heard a voice say slowly: "Third prince, why don't you open the window before you fall asleep? Your guest has arrived."
As soon as he heard the sound, his tense nerves immediately relaxed, he quickly got out of bed, moved to the window, and was about to open the window, but his fingers stopped suddenly.
Why did he open the window for that guy?
It must be because he is afraid of ghosts, so after hearing a human voice, he will feel that the voice of this lunatic is very reassuring!
"What are you doing here?" Not wanting to disturb the other people in the yard, he lowered his voice and asked through the window.
In fact, he doesn't need to worry about other people at all.
The nanny is old and her hearing is not sharp at all. As long as she doesn't shout, it is impossible to wake her up.
The two servant girls lived farthest away from him. They slept deeply when they were young, and rarely woke up in the middle of the night.
Not to mention the other two eunuchs who were closer.
During the day, they were so frightened that they didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of food at night, and they didn't bother to defraud Liu Xiuhe. They went back to the room earlier than him, and they didn't dare to come out of hiding.
Even if they heard any movement outside, these two people would never show up. They probably wished they could just dig a hole and hide themselves.
It's just that Liu Xiuhe is used to being careful, and of course he dare not speak too high-pitched.
People outside seemed to find it interesting, so they imitated him and lowered their voices together: "Guess?" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
