"It seems that what my mother is said is right, what waste are you all."

The prince must have been angry when he saw that they couldn't even catch an assassin, but after all, he was the one arranged by his father, so he couldn't blame him, so he could only endure it for the time being.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, a guard wanted to knock on his door.

The prince lived in the palace all year round. He had never suffered such a grievance. There were people knocking on his door in the middle of the night, and he couldn't sleep well at all.

Although he was helpless and dissatisfied, he still stood up and opened the door.

"Is there a problem?"

The prince tried his best to maintain a gentle image. He thought these people were sent by the emperor to test him, so he behaved very gently and restrained in front of them.

Unexpectedly, the person in front of him didn't reply to his words at all. Instead, he took out the dagger from his arms and stabbed it in his direction.

The prince was half asleep, and he didn't realize that the person in front of him was actually an assassin.

Kankan dodged the first blow, but actually hit the door frame. Seeing this opportunity, he quickly took action. The prince really couldn't avoid the second blow.

Seeing that the dagger was about to fall on his body, the prince closed his eyes in fear, but when he heard the sound of the knife sinking into his flesh and blood, he felt no pain at all.

When the prince opened his eyes, he saw that the assassin in front of him had vomited blood and fell down.

There was a man in night clothes standing behind him.

"Your Highness, this person is an assassin. He is not the only one traveling with you. Your Highness, please be careful on the way down."

As soon as the prince heard the voice, he knew that this was the person his mother had arranged to stay with him and protect him.

While he was angry that his mother didn't trust him, he was also a little scared.

If the queen had not arranged for anyone to protect her, she might have gone to the west by now.

"I told you, third brother, you don't have to worry. The queen loves her son so much that she will definitely send someone to protect him."

Lu Wushuang originally didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but when he heard the guard knocking on the prince's door in the middle of the night, he really couldn't stand by and watch.

Lu Youyou was also woken up by his constant turning over. Knowing what the third brother was worried about, she simply went out with the third brother to see the situation.

As a result, before Lu Wushuang could take action, the assassin was killed instantly.

It was only at this time that Lu Wushuang realized that his worries were unnecessary.

"There's nothing wrong now. You can go back to sleep."

Since she was able to speak, Lu Youyou no longer restrained herself. She simply kept silent in front of outsiders, pretending that she had never learned to speak at all.

In front of her family, she can be unscrupulous.

Lu Youyou stretched hard and gently tugged on Lu Wushuang's clothes, "Go back to sleep, third brother."

The prince finally calmed down his emotions and thanked the person in front of him.

"I know."

The prince was actually a little dissatisfied, so he said he had just been rescued by this secret guard, but from his point of view, this was also a sign that his mother did not trust him.

He always felt that the queen was too benevolent as a woman, so she was indecisive on many things. Just after he was out of danger, he felt that the queen might affect his achievements. The next morning there was one less person among the followers, but the other people around him said nothing, as if they were completely unaware that one person was missing.

They didn't mention it, let alone the prince. He could only maintain a superficial peace with a few of them, but he had already begun to be wary of them.

"The prince is really tolerant sometimes. He knows that several of them want to kill him, but he can still go with them."

Lu Wushuang couldn't help but marvel when he saw such a scene.

After what happened yesterday, Lu Youyou also convinced Lu Wushuang. The two of them were not in a hurry to follow Lu Zhiyan, but followed the prince directly.

They were pretending to be businessmen, so even if they were traveling together, it was normal, so the two of them did not attract the prince's attention.

Lu Youyou nodded quickly after hearing this.

"Isn't that right? I don't know where the secret guards arranged by the Queen are hiding. They are so elusive."

When those two people suddenly appeared yesterday, Lu Youyou was shocked.

"There's one in the bushes over there, one is following behind their carriage, and the rest are probably far away."

Lu Wushuang had experience with this kind of thing. He could tell at a glance that there was a person hanging under the carriage and pointed it out to his sister.

"It's really hard work. Isn't it uncomfortable to hang like this?"

After Lu Wushuang pointed, Lu Youyou saw the person under the car. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't notice it at all.

"It's really pitiful for all parents in the world. The queen is so kind to her son and sends such powerful secret guards to protect him."

Lu Youyou shook his head as he looked at it, but Lu Wushuang didn't take it seriously.

"These are the most basic things as a secret guard, and there is nothing difficult about them."

After losing one person, they were honest all the way.

It's a pity that the prince's condition is not very good.

His body has not fully recovered since he was seriously injured, and he was too eager to recover his right hand as quickly as possible, so he did not take good care of himself. Traveling all night was too much for his body.

Even Lu Wushuang and Lu Youyou, who were far away from each other, could tell that he was definitely sick.

[If this continues, we probably won’t be able to reach Dingzhou, and the prince’s fun will be over. 】

Lu Youyou always kept in mind what her family had taught her. She just thought about such rebellious words in her heart. No matter whether there was anyone around or not, she did not say them out loud.

"It does seem that he is seriously ill." Lu Wushuang looked at the prince's poor complexion. He was swaying several times while sitting on the horse, but no one around him wanted to help him. "If it continues like this, it will be really difficult to survive." Dingzhou.”

While the two were talking, the prince immediately lost consciousness and fell off his horse. Fortunately, there was someone holding him up, so he didn't fall headfirst to death.

Thinking about the prince's bold words when he set out, Lu Youyou just thought it was ridiculous. Considering the prince's physical condition, if he continued to show off his strength like this, he would be killed without the help of the people around him.

Fortunately, Lu Wushuang didn't need to take action. The people brought by the prince himself and those sent by the queen would take good care of the prince, and would naturally advise him to get more rest.

The prince was placed in an inn in the city, and Lu Wushuang also noticed that the people around the prince had changed a lot during the time when he fainted.
