Li Han didn't expect that he would be discovered not long after he came in. He suddenly became a little panicked and his heart was pounding as he hid in the closet.
After all, Li Han now represents the entire Li Kingdom in Tan Kingdom. If she does something out of line, such as breaking into the royal scripture library of Tan Kingdom at night, then Tan Kingdom will definitely take this opportunity to cause trouble for Li Kingdom, which is something Li Han does not want to see.
Li Han saw the person coming in through the gap in the cabinet door. Although Li Han did not know this person, she had seen him at the banquet. He must be a prince of Tanzania or something like that.
I saw the other person walking around the room, seemingly not finding what he was looking for. He looked a little lost and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the wardrobe where Li Han was hiding suddenly made a sound, which made Li Han's heart rise to his throat. He quickly closed his eyes and prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the other party would not come over to check or something, otherwise he would be finished.
In this world, things often go against one's wishes. The prince of Tan State, who was about to leave, turned back and walked to the wardrobe where the noise came from. He opened the door curiously and saw Li Han with his eyes closed and a panicked face.
"Princess of Li? Why are you hiding here?" asked the Prince of Tan.
Li Han felt a little embarrassed for a moment, but forced a smile, "Hi, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you here."
The prince smiled and extended his hand, "What a coincidence. Princess, you probably don't know me yet. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lu Yi!"
Li Han stretched out his hand and placed it on Lu Yi's hand. Then Lu Yi pulled Li Han out. Li Han said, "My name is Li Han. I think you should know me."
"Of course. I've heard of your reputation as the Princess of Li Kingdom a long time ago. Your sword dance at the banquet today was truly wonderful and breathtaking. It's still a sight to behold." Judging from what Lu Yi said to Li Han, he had a good first impression of Li Han.
"However, Her Royal Highness the Princess is not enjoying the banquet in front of the main hall at the moment. Why is she here?" Lu Yi asked curiously.
Li Han's mind went blank immediately, and he didn't know how to answer, so he casually said that he walked in accidentally. But Li Han regretted it as soon as he finished speaking. This answer was simply too stupid.
Ru Lihan was right. Lu Yi clearly didn't believe her answer. "Oh, you just barged in by accident? This place is quite far from the banquet. Your Highness the Princess is so careless!"
Li Han hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to answer. No matter what she said, she could not properly explain why she suddenly appeared here. Li Han just felt that she was really finished this time. She stood there in a daze, at a loss.
"If I'm not mistaken, Her Royal Highness the Princess should be looking for the family tree of the Tanzanian royal family, right?" Lu Yi said casually.
Li Han's heart suddenly skipped a beat. She was very surprised. She didn't know how Lu Yi knew that she came to the Sutra Repository for the royal genealogy of Tan State. Her brows immediately frowned, and she felt that the person in front of her was unusual.
"Don't worry, I won't tell on you. I think you must be wondering why the hell I knew you were looking for the family tree, right?"
Li Han did not hide it. After all, the other party had already guessed it, which meant that she must have revealed her flaws in some aspects. Since he could see it, other people might also find out, which would be very disadvantageous to her. So she nodded to Lu Yi. In fact, she also wanted to know where she was seen through.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "It's actually very simple. As a Li national, you came to the Tan Kingdom's Sutra Library. You can't be curious about our Tan Kingdom's scriptures, right? If you wanted to steal our country's secrets, you wouldn't be stupid enough to come here. You would definitely go to my father's study. I found that the books here have been hastily flipped through. There are special people here to clean up, so they wouldn't be so careless."
Lu Yi walked to the bookshelf nearby, pointed at the books that Li Han had messed up, and continued, "So from the above information, we can preliminarily infer that you are after the genealogy of the Tan Kingdom royal family. Although I don't know what you are looking for it for, I can't think of anything else you are looking for in the Sutra Library."
"You are very smart. I am indeed looking for the family tree. You can go to your father and report me!" Li Han's mind is now full of thoughts on how to notify Lu Yuan and the others to escape quickly.
However, Lu Yuan's next words surprised her greatly, "I won't report you. If you want the family tree, I'll take you to find it!"
Afterwards, Lu Yi walked deeper into the cave, and Li Han followed him with a half-believing and half-doubting attitude. "Why are you helping me? Aren't you afraid that I might harm you, or even the entire Tan Kingdom?"
Lu Yi didn't say anything and walked forward on his own. As he walked, he came to a place that looked like a study. Lu Yi explained to Li Han that this was the place where the former king of Tan and the former national teacher compiled the names of the royal children together. However, it had been abandoned for a long time and was currently simply used to store some royal books and the like.
Then, Lu Yi suddenly stopped, opened a cabinet on a shelf in front of him, and took out a small wooden box, which was neither too big nor too small, and handed it to Li Han, "Here is the genealogy of the royal family of Tan State through the generations."
Li Han did not take the box immediately. She looked at Lu Yi with jealousy and suspicion because she could not see through the man in front of her. Why would a prince of Tanzania help her people? Wasn't he really afraid that he would be detrimental to Tanzania, or was he too trusting of herself?
Lu Yi smiled and threw the box directly to Li Han. "Don't worry, I won't harm you. Although I am the prince of Tan, I don't like this place. I feel it is too oppressive. I want to escape from this golden cage of fame and fortune."
Li Han saw a trace of loneliness and longing in Lu Yi's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for him. It must be such a disappointment for a prince to hate his own country.
Li Han patted Lu Yi's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to Tan Country. Although I don't know why you have such emotions, I will take you out with me if there is a chance in the future. If you don't want to be a canary, then fly out bravely!"
Lu Yi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Li Han to say this to him. Then he smiled knowingly, "Since I've told you my story, why don't you also tell me why you're looking for the family tree? This way, it's fair."
Li Han felt that Lu Yi was not a bad person. He was different from the prince and princess of Tan State whom she had met before. At least he gave her a very sincere feeling, so she told him about Lu Yuan.
