"Go in, light some incense for me, and give me some money for the incense."
The guard hesitated. The Crown Prince had taken him alone with him when he left the East Palace today. However, seeing the Crown Prince's bewildered expression, the guard still responded with a stiff upper lip. "Yes, my lord, please be careful."
Spots of light shone through the leafy old trees. The prince stared at those spots of light, without a trace of expression on his face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
“Ahem…”
A clear cough came from behind. The prince turned around and frowned slightly, "Who are you?"
"Anyone who can come here must be a Buddhist. Who else could it be?" Lin Chunhuan lowered his voice and spoke in a low tone.
When she was leading other systems in the past, she had to pretend to be a man quite often, so she had done professional practice in both walking movements and voice.
No matter who looks at her, they will only think that she is a handsome young man, and will not mistake her for a woman because of her face.
Even the prince, who was very resistant to women in his heart, only frowned slightly when facing her, without showing any strange expression.
"If you want to worship Buddha, you should go to the front. Which Buddha are you worshipping in the backyard?"
The prince's tone was a little impolite.
Lin Chunhuan didn't care either. He touched his nose a little embarrassedly and said, "My mother is looking for the abbot to give a lecture in the Zen room, and I can't stay here."
"This is my first time here, and I didn't expect to get lost."
"It's strange to say, I haven't seen anyone except you along the way. If it's convenient for you, could you please... show me the way?"
Hearing this, the prince's expression eased a little.
Although he came here in disguise, the abbot of the temple was very familiar with him and had naturally cleared this area early. It was normal for him to get lost and not find anyone to ask for directions along the way.
But even though he was trying to ease the situation, the prince turned his eyes away when asked for directions from Lin Chunhuan. "I'm busy."
"You are such a heartless person!"
Lin Chunhuan rolled her eyes, earning a sneer from the prince. "Favor? Who are you? How can I...have favor with you?"
"If you don't want to show me the way, then don't show me the way. Why are you still cursing at me?"
Pretending to be angry, Lin Chunhuan angrily put away the folding fan in his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't believe that I can't get out by myself!"
After saying this, Lin Chunhuan turned around and left without any intention of staying.
The moment he turned around, his face was slightly gloomy. The prince was too defensive and more difficult to approach than he had expected. Fortunately, he came here just to make himself familiar and did not intend to do anything else.
At this moment, the goal has been achieved.
But if I want to go further, it seems I have to think of some other ways.
After turning a corner, the prince was no longer in sight. Lin Chunhuan slowed down his pace and lowered his head to think about how to approach the prince with such a personality.
This mission was different from the previous two. Although she roughly knew what happened next, she was not as clear about the specific events as those who had been reborn.
In many cases, we can only rely on speculation.
"He should be right up ahead. This time, we must hit him with one strike. Otherwise, once he's prepared, it will be difficult to strike him again... Someone is coming."
There's no one around here, it's very quiet.
A slight sound of voice reached Lin Chunhuan's ears very clearly. He raised his head and saw that the people talking were a few men. They were so ordinary that you couldn't find them in a crowd.
There was only one road going back and forth here. When they saw Lin Chunhuan approaching, those people immediately stopped talking and started gossiping about family matters.
If it weren't for the sentence just now, she was sure that she had not heard it wrongly, and it would have been easy for her to ignore these people.
Seeing Lin Chunhuan walking past with a normal expression, the leader of the men breathed a sigh of relief. "He has no internal energy, so he must be a pilgrim passing by. Don't worry about him. Let's go."
Outside the temple, the guard had finished what the prince had instructed him to do. He was putting on his master's cloak and preparing to leave when his hands suddenly tensed up. "Master, we are surrounded!"
"You go in and hide first, I'll hold the man back!"
The prince's face changed slightly when he heard this, "Okay, be careful."
Seeing that the prince, who was about to leave, actually entered the house again, the people who were ambushing outside immediately knew that they had been discovered and came out one by one.
Every move is a killing move!
"Hurry up and get rid of this lackey. I will kill the dog prince today!"
Anyone who can serve beside the current crown prince is naturally not an ordinary person. There are seven or eight people on the other side, but this guard alone did not fall at a disadvantage at the first moment.
Lin Chunhuan, who had returned, hid not far away and marveled at the situation. At this time, no one paid any attention to such an irrelevant person like her.
This timing might be good?
Lin Chunhuan's eyes moved slightly, and in an instant his mind was full of ideas.
Just do it!
The prince stood by the door with a sullen face. During this period of time, mysterious people kept appearing around him. He knew that someone was targeting him. Instead of passively waiting for the other party to make a move, it would be better to take the initiative.
Today was a trap set up by him.
It seemed that he only brought one person with him when he left the palace, but in fact, there were more than a dozen secret guards lying in ambush not far away. As soon as those people took action, the guards would immediately send out a signal.
But the prince didn't expect that before a few breaths had passed, the tightly closed door was pushed open, and the person who came in was the young man who had asked for directions just now!
"you……"
"Stop it!" Lin Chunhuan's face was filled with anxiety. Without saying anything, he grabbed the prince's arm and said, "Can't you see that these people are here to kill you?"
"That guard of yours won't be able to hold me back for long. I just got lost and wandered around here, so I'm pretty familiar with the terrain. Come with me now!"
Lin Chunhuan could only say "Amitabha" that the note given by Lin Yimiao was written in sufficient detail.
Although the article is not long, it points out the location of the secret passage in this Zen room.
I think an assassination must have occurred at this time in the previous life. The specific process is unclear, but the prince should have left through this secret passage in the end.
Anyway, the prince will not be in danger, but... this time she got there first.
The prince's face looked grim, and he wanted to break free from the hand that was holding him.
But the secret guards who should have arrived long ago were nowhere to be seen. He immediately thought that something must have gone wrong. "We are surrounded outside. How are you going to get me out?"
"I've been to this Zen room before. There's a secret passage inside!"
While Lin Chunhuan was speaking, he turned the inkstone on the table, and a secret passage that was only wide enough for one person to pass through actually appeared behind the calligraphy and painting.
