"Scared, haah! who?"
The Prince looked at the pair of curious eyes looking back at him. At this time one of his aide came to him.
"Reporting to Lord, Everyone is waiting for you."
Prince glanced back at Xiao Guo once again before disappearing with his aide.
"Guo'er, are you alright? He didn't do anything to you, did he?"
"Calm down, brother Yi. He actually saved me."
"Who saved whom? It's him, he ruined a local place while rushing forward with his cavalry."
Xiao guo knew that his words would fell in deaf ears. People already had so many negative stories about First Prince and now they must be hating him more.
"Sighs! But he must have his own reasons. If he was someone who didn't care about people at all, why didn't he leave me their to die?"
"Guo'er, have you seen his face? He must have been disfigured, no?"
"Disfigured....?"
"Yes, he has that mask. Life is so hard for him, his face is disfigured along with his that..."
______________
The First Prince was accompanied by his aide and was about to enter the palace.
"Xiao Tian, earlier that man, didn't he look familiar?"
Haotian, the medic in the army, who actually was a commoner, smiled weirdly looking at the Prince.
"**The tiny one? Whom you saved...."
"Tian.."
"Alright, the tall one was familiar and I've sent our people behind him."
"This Prince is sure, something was weird there**."
Haotian again smiled mischievously.
"How weird is it that the Prince they feared saved a young man..."
Suddenly he felt a chill running down his spine.
"Alright, let's not provoke this crazy person anymore."
They crossed the palace gate.
"Oh, Your highness, we found the assassins but they all killed themselves."
The smile in Prince's eyes became colder that ice and the mask couldn't conceal his cruelty anymore.
"So? No evidence? If there's no evidence, make one. Afterall we know who's behind the scene."
"Today the Zhao family would be so disappointed seeing this Prince walking alive. Putting assassins in the crowded market area so that this Prince would slow his horse and die in the hands of a filthy assassin. Naive!"

The harem in the imperial palace was turned upside down on the hands of Zhao Mingxi. The maids like Xiao Mi could only kneel on the ground praying the calamity to pass over soon.
Earlier when Xiao Mi heard from the eunuch that the First Prince was returning, she wanted to run away, the First Prince is scary but her highness is the scariest.
"Couldn't he find another time! Why now? Why? There must be another reason. Do anything to stop him outside, I don't want even his shadow on my son's wedding."
A man wearing an iron armour scoffed loudly.
"**Haah! Sister was complaining about the wedding just now, didn't you?"
"Oh my brother! The almighty commander Zhao, Your majesty's body guard! How the hell**...."
Mingxi was shouting at the top of her lungs but this part of the sentence she whispered in Commander Zhao's ear.
"How on earth did your assassination fail? You just had to kill a kid."
