When Chu Ci returned to the East Palace, it was still early. However, another earth-shattering change had occurred in the East Palace. Originally, her first reaction was to go back to her own bedroom, but she was informed by Chen Shi that all her belongings had been moved to the Crown Prince's palace.

  Chu Ci was shocked: "All... moved away?"

  Chu Ci thought it was unlikely, she had only been out for a short while, how could the people in the East Palace move so quickly...

  "Ah, yes. The Crown Prince has given an order that it must be moved before you return to the palace today. Otherwise, everyone in the Eastern Palace will be punished..."

  Chu Ci's eyes widened in an unbelievable manner, and those who didn't know would think she was the one being anxious to move to the east wing of the Taizi Temple so hastily. However, it was actually the Taizi himself who was anxious...

  Chu Ci thought about it more and more, and got angry again. She didn't want to go to the Crown Prince's palace now, so as not to provide evidence that she was in a hurry to move into the Crown Prince's palace. So, Chu Ci ran out by herself again.

  She thought it was still early anyway and didn't let Chen Shi follow her, so she went out by herself.

  It's daytime again, and Chang Le Street is bustling with activity. Especially when she sees someone selling those sugar figurines, Chu Ci realizes that although she has forgotten some things, seeing the familiar objects still there makes her feel a rare sense of familiarity and closeness.

  Then, Chu Ci couldn't help but go buy a pack of sugar. However, just as she had the hot sugar in her hands, she happened to see someone who was waiting to buy pulled sugar secretly stretching out their hand towards the money pouch on the waist of a young boy who was curiously watching the vendor make pulled sugar.

  Chu Ci raised an eyebrow, stuffed a small piece of sugar into his mouth and chewed twice. He saw that the little thief had already reached out to steal the young man's money pouch, while the young man remained completely unaware...

  The next moment, Chu Ci drew out the curved knife whip that was hanging from his waist and instantly hooked onto the small thief's hand that had already stolen the money pouch. With a swift pull forward, the small thief was immediately slashed by the curved blade twice and cried out in pain: "Let me go!"

  At the same time, the purse in his hand also fell down, and Chu Ci quickly caught it. At this moment, the young man finally turned back with a confused face, and Chu Ci threw the purse at him, saying: "Young master doesn't look like someone from Kyoto?"

  The young man received the purse with a very ugly expression, looked at Chu Ci, then looked at the little thief, and finally understood what was going on. He nodded his head in gratitude: "I am from Nancheng, my surname is Jian, my name is Ji, this time I came to Kyoto to find my sister..."

  Chu Ci also interrupted him with a bewildered expression: "Young Master, there's no need to tell me these things."

  Chu Ci thought that if she hadn't interrupted the young man just now, he would have almost hated to reveal his family background and everything about himself.

  Jian Ji finally reacted and bowed his hands in gratitude: "Thank you so much for your help just now, miss."

  "Can you two wait a bit before talking? Young lady, please let go of me?"

  The little thief stared at his own hand bleeding profusely and couldn't help but interrupt.

  Chu Ci let out a soft hum and tightened his grip even more, saying in a stern voice: "Will you dare to be a thief again in the future?"
