The Eleventh Prince looked at the man in front of him, his brows furrowed even more.

The master was right...

He has left his troops and come to the border this time, and someone will secretly attack him.

The Eleventh Prince still refuses to believe that it was the Eighth Prince who wanted to attack him...

He didn't see the starling pointing the weapon at him, he just believed the starling!

Liu Bai squinted his eyes and looked outside the door. "Your Highness the Eighth Prince is hesitating to take action at this time. Are you afraid that General Gong, who is guarding the border, will try to stop you?"

The Eleventh Prince was slightly startled.

Mynah bird is outside the door?!

As expected, the Eighth Prince's voice rang out from outside the door. "Master Liu, what are you talking about? I don't understand. I heard some noise coming from your side in the dead of night, so I rushed over to see what was going on."

Pretending to be stupid?

Liu Bai's eyes turned cold, he pushed away the guards blocking the door and strode out.

Outside the thatched hut, the Eighth Prince had his hands on his waist, and the guards following him held torches in one hand and weapons in the other.

Their thatched hut was completely blocked.

"Your Highness cares about the Eighth Prince, showing true brotherly love. But...what does Your Highness mean? Why did you bring people to surround our place?"

This time, except for Liu Bai's men, everyone, including the army, obeyed the orders of the Eighth Prince.

As for the safety of Liu Bai and the Eleventh Prince...

Now everything seems to be under the control of the Eighth Prince.

"Eleventh brother, there's so much noise in your room. I have to be on guard. What if someone wants to do something bad to you at night?" What's the difference between the Eighth Prince's words and specious arguments?

Liu Bai frowned, then laughed out of anger. He pointed a finger at his face and asked, "So, what is your Highness trying to say? Am I the one who's up to something?"

The Eighth Prince remained calm and composed, "What else?"

The Eighth Prince's expression suddenly changed. "Capture him! After returning to the Southern Kingdom, confer him a posthumous title!"

Liu Bai was prepared. He drew the long sword from its sheath and forced the soldier in front of him back three feet.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Liu Bai's forehead. Could it be that the girl had secretly learned some observation skills? She had already guessed this!

With his wife and children still in her hands, Liu Bai could only try his best to protect the eleventh prince for her.

The Eleventh Prince in the room heard the noise and wanted to come out, but the door had already been closed by Liu Bai.

He was in the room just now and heard their conversation?

Even a fool could understand that the Eighth Prince was indeed planning to kill him for treason!

"My dear brother! Don't attack Lord Liu! It's my fault. I made you angry! My dear brother, don't blame Lord Liu." The eleventh prince slammed the door frame.

The eleventh prince's pleas were of no use; all he heard in return was the clanging of weapons outside the door.

There must be a fight going on outside!

The guards responsible for blocking the door did not move.

"Lord Liu is the only one outside, and you are just going to watch him like that?! My brother wants me! Hand me over, and Lord Liu will be fine." The eleventh prince didn't understand why these people could just stand by and watch Liu Bai fighting alone there.

Of course he didn't understand.

Liu Bai wouldn't be so stupid as to try his best to protect him!

He was just pretending. The Eighth Prince's target was only the Eleventh Prince, and if he, an important official in the court, died, it would be difficult for the Eighth Prince to explain to His Majesty when he returned to the Southern Kingdom.

It will also bring trouble to yourself.

If only the eleventh prince died, he could make up an excuse to Su Rou, saying that he tried his best but failed to save the eleventh prince.

That girl seemed to be kind-hearted and wouldn't really do anything to him.
