I Was Terrified At That Time

In Shattered Cloud City, inside an inn room.

"It's already the hour of Xu, what would the Crown Prince like to eat?" Elder Hai inquired.

With no outsiders present, he addressed Ao Sheng directly as the Crown Prince.

"Hmm..." Ao Sheng, the Eastern Sea Crown Prince, lay on a rattan chair, humming in response.

His face was covered with medicinal herbs, still bruised and swollen from the beating he received that morning, showing no signs of recovery yet.

"The night market in Shattered Cloud City has started," Ao Sheng remembered, his eyes lighting up. "There will be lanterns tonight, and I heard that sometimes the Shattered Cloud Empress disguises herself as a commoner to join in. How about we..."

He was about to get up as he spoke.

"You're in this state and still thinking of going out?" Ao Yuan, his sister, pressed him back down, clearly annoyed.
