The first sentence was addressed to Zu'an, while the second was addressed to the group of guards.
Zuan breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, he wasn't recognized; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
He quickly gave Sun Luzhen and the others a look, signaling them to leave the palace on their own. Now that the Prince of Qi was so close, he didn't even dare to use his inner energy to transmit his voice, for fear of being discovered as odd.
