Without more time to think, the prince took a deep breath and followed.

He still has too many things to do and doesn't dare to gamble with his life!

Moreover, although the young man in front of him had an unknown origin, he did not seem to have any bad intentions towards him, otherwise he could have waited until the guards around him were exhausted and let the assassins take his life.

There is no need to save him at all.

The door to the secret passage was closed, blocking out the clash of swords and knives. Lin Chunhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a tinder from his pocket, lit it, and handed it to the prince. "Take this. It's a must-have for robbing people."

"Just follow the path you're on."

The prince's mouth twitched, "Who are you and why did you save me?"

"Jianghu people."

Lin Chunhuan turned around and walked ahead to explore the way, answering nonchalantly, "We Jianghu people are very conscientious. Even a chance encounter is still fate. Unlike you noble young men, you are all very cold-blooded, humph."

Are you blaming him for not giving directions?

The prince was stunned for a moment, and slightly curled the corners of his lips. This young master looked young, but he had a bad temper and was quite vindictive.

With this interruption, the prince's guard relaxed a little.

From childhood to adulthood, his life was full of calculations and malice. He never knew what he did or what he said unintentionally, which would become a handle in the hands of others.

He was used to being cautious and indifferent. The so-called good qualities of helping others and being philanthropic would only cost him his life.

The prince pursed his lips and took a deep look at the figure not far away. The man was so thin that he seemed like he could be blown down by the wind. Such a person, facing such a dangerous situation, actually dared to risk his life to save others.

I can’t explain how I feel deep down.

The prince quickened his pace.

He also made sure that the fire stick in his hand could illuminate the road in front of Lin Chunhuan. "What's your name?"

From the front, where the prince couldn't see, Lin Chunhuan's eyes were calm. Every word he said was repeated several times in his mouth, but his tone sounded very casual. "Lin Chun, what about you?"

"I……"

The prince was hesitating whether to reveal his identity, frowning slightly. But before he could come up with an answer, Lin Chunhuan in front of him had already turned around happily, "There is light ahead, we should be almost at the end!"

"Stay here and don't move. I'll go out and explore the way. Those people are targeting you. As long as they don't find you, they won't do anything to me even if they are nearby."

"If I haven't come back in half an incense stick, run back immediately!"

"But you..."

Before the prince could finish his words, Lin Chunhuan had already stuffed the few things he had on him into his hands, "Don't worry about me. If you have any conscience, find your people and come and save me!"

After he finished speaking, Lin Chunhuan walked out of the secret passage without saying a word.

His heart was beating like a drum. For all these years, no one had ever taken care of him so recklessly. The prince took several deep breaths in silence, holding the nearly extinguished fire starter in his hand, unable to speak.

My head was spinning with dizziness.

Fortunately, Lin Chunhuan didn't make him wait for long. After a while, a little head popped out from outside. "There is also a meditation room outside. There is no one there. Come out quickly!"

The layout of the room seemed familiar.

The prince breathed a sigh of relief. "This is the abbot's meditation room. Pilgrims often come here. Those assassins probably don't dare to come here."

"So it's safe here?"

After receiving a positive answer, Lin Chunhuan breathed a sigh of relief and stared at the prince with curiosity, "Who are you? Why did those people want to kill you?"

"You look like a decent person, could it be that you stole someone's wife?"

The prince blushed, "What nonsense!"

“Those people, they…”

Seeing the prince suddenly stop talking mid-sentence, Lin Chunhuan waited for a moment and then waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it. If you don't want to say it, then don't say it. I'm not forcing you. Forcing someone to do something is not the way of a gentleman."

His shoulder bumped into the prince's arm, and Lin Chunhuan tilted his head back in disgust, "Why are you so tall? It's hard to even look at you."

"It's obviously you who are too short, how can you blame others for being taller?"

After the prince breathed a sigh of relief, his tone remained cold. Lin Chunhuan snorted in disdain, "I don't want to bother with you."

"My family must be worried. I have to go back. Is it okay for you to be here alone?"

"Um."

Lin Chunhuan replied coldly, shrugged, and said, "Let's go."

"etc!"

The prince raised his head and looked at the androgynous face, only to realize that the person in front of him had such a good-looking face. For a moment, he almost forgot what he was going to say.

Lin Chunhuan raised his hand and waved it in front of him a few times before he came back to his senses. His breathing was a little uneven. "How can I find you? I should repay you for saving my life."

"You want to thank me?" Lin Chun laughed jokingly, "It's hard to repay the favor of saving my life."

The prince's expression was serious. "As long as you can tell me and it's within my ability, I can agree to it."

If I ask you to marry me, can you agree?

Of course, Lin Chunhuan could only think about this in her heart. The biggest reason why the prince was willing to talk to her now, apart from the so-called life-saving grace, was because she was now a "man".

Once her identity as a woman is revealed, this man will probably stay away from her and will no longer remember her life-saving grace.

There's no need to rush now.

Lin Chunhuan smiled and clasped his fists, "Brother, your kindness is enough. I saved you not for your repayment. See you again if we're lucky!"

"If there's anything I can do for you in the future, I'll definitely be there for you. I just hope you won't refuse!"

The voice was still there, but the person had long disappeared.

The prince was surprised. The young master didn't seem to have any internal strength, but his martial arts skills were superb. No wonder he was able to escape the siege of those assassins.

You can still find him through the crowd.

The prince did not stay in the abbot's meditation room for long. Soon, the secret guards around him found him and captured the group of assassins who attempted to assassinate him. They packed them up and took them all back to the Sky Prison in the East Palace.

The assassination of the Crown Prince at Qianfeng Mountain was by no means a trivial matter. During those two days, there were many more soldiers patrolling the streets of Kyoto than usual.

However, after two days and two nights of interrogation, the group of people clenched their teeth and refused to reveal a single word about the person behind the scenes. If they were pressed hard enough, they would simply bite their tongues and commit suicide. There was nothing they could do.

That night.

The prince walked out of the prison and exhaled deeply towards the starry sky. A figure approached quietly.

"Reporting to Your Highness, no one from the Jianghu family surnamed Lin was present at the temple that day to listen to the sutras. Also, the young master Your Highness asked me to keep an eye out for... has not been found either."
