The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Bai Zhu lowered his eyes and glanced at the hand blocking his way. The post station was full of soldiers on duty. The Queen of Daxia would never allow a person with evil intentions to approach Prince Bao. He could not take off the mask on his face in front of others.

If he ruins Prince Lan's reputation, he will die if he returns.

"Sir, I was burned by fire when I was young, and the only skin on my face that's exposed is intact. Since this is a restricted area and no outsiders are allowed to enter, please take your things yourself."

Bai Zhu took off the bag on his back. It contained Prince Lan's clothes, which he changed into to prevent them from getting dirty at the state banquet. Even if the officers and soldiers checked, they would not find anything.

Yuchi Lan was already at a loss as to what to do in the face of the current situation. Bai Zhu's words were like a life-saving straw. He could not care about anything else at this moment. He quickly took the bundle from Bai Zhu's hand, took out a silver ingot from the bundle and stuffed it into Bai Zhu's hand:

"Thank you for your help today. In that case, you can go back."

Bai Zhu thanked him profusely, took the change and wanted to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he was stopped by the soldiers following him.

"The masks have been removed, and everyone entering and leaving the post station will be screened."

Seeing Bai Zhu being stopped, Yuchi Lan was even more anxious than him, fearing that Bai Zhu would take off his mask. The glorious deeds of tonight had not yet faded from his heart and could not be ruined like this.

"He's just an ordinary citizen I met on the road. Prince Bao also knows about this. Why are you making things so difficult for him?"

Yuchi Lan wanted to act like a prince to shock these people. After all, he was now a favorite of Prince Bao. These people had to give face to Prince Bao even if they didn't give face to Xiao Wan.

The officers and soldiers blocking the door looked at each other and exchanged glances, but they did not let go of their hands blocking Bai Zhu.

"Your Highness is busy every day, how could he remember such a trivial matter? Take off your mask quickly and don't force us to do anything."

As the officers and soldiers on duty were talking, the hustle and bustle here attracted more people. Bai Zhu swept his brown eyes over these people, and his mind was thinking rapidly about how to get through this.

He didn't know how deep the love between Prince Lan and Prince Bao was, but he had heard about the ruthless methods of the Queen of Da Xia. If today's matter could not be resolved peacefully and the news reached the Queen's ears, the plan would definitely not succeed.

Yuchi Lan might be secretly executed by the Queen of Daxia, and Xiaowan might also be implicated.

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly tense, Yuchi Lan felt that the air flow around him was slowing down. The feeling of having no choice but to wait for death was really uncomfortable. He even felt difficulty breathing.

"My face is very ugly, I am afraid it will frighten you gentlemen."

Bai Zhu was still struggling in his death throes. This was not Xiaowan, and the officers and soldiers on duty here were not Xiaowan's group of soldiers who only knew how to be sneaky and cunning. If these officers and soldiers insisted on asking him to take off his mask, he would have no choice but to run away. Prince Lan might be implicated, but if he had Prince Bao to protect him, at most he would be charged with a crime of time difference and be reprimanded by the Queen of Daxia.

All this is better than being exposed.

"We are all veterans who have retired from the battlefield. We have seen all kinds of scary scars. Feel free to pick them off. If you can scare us, I will find you the best scar cream to help fade the scars on your face."

The officers and soldiers spoke in cheerful voices, sounding like they were very easy to get along with, but their eyes were terrifying, as if they were examining a prisoner.

Bai Zhu looked up at the increasing number of officers and soldiers surrounding him, wondering how likely it was that he could escape from here.

If you can't escape, just scratch your face in the chaos. Then it will be covered in blood and the scar will be difficult to recognize.

Bai Zhu made up his mind and turned around to signal Prince Lan with his eyes, but he saw that sweat was already on his forehead and he looked like he was terrified to the extreme, so he simply looked away.

What kind of person is Prince Lan? Hadn't he already experienced it on the way when he was ordered to accompany him?

Daxia is full of dangers. He has too many thoughts in his mind and has become confused. He may be crazy to expect Yuchi Lan, who only has a pretty face, to accomplish anything.

Bai Zhu's Adam's apple rolled, and he was ready to fight to the death, just hoping that the outcome would not be worse than he imagined.

"What's going on? Why are everyone here?"

Just when Bai Zhu wanted to rush out, a clear female voice sounded from not far away, and the officers and soldiers who had surrounded him just now took the initiative to make way.

Bai Zhu turned his head and looked. He recognized the person. It was the palace maid beside Her Majesty the Queen of Great Xia, or the one who often followed the Queen of Great Xia. Why was she here?

The plan was interrupted and Bai Zhu could only wait and see.

"Aunt Yunling, we are following orders to check the people entering and leaving the post station. I wonder why Aunt Yunling is here so late at night?"

The officers and soldiers on duty naturally would not tell the whole story. It was their duty to check the people entering and leaving the post station. This man was wearing a mask on his face and was able to walk in through the post station gate openly. This was a dereliction of duty by the officers on duty at the gate.

The person standing in front of everyone is Aunt Yunling, the most popular person beside His Majesty. When His Majesty is not around, her words represent His Majesty's intentions.

Aunt Yunling knows about the officers and soldiers' dereliction of duty, and it won't be long before His Majesty knows about it.

They are all veterans who have retired from the battlefield and have a large family to support. No one dares to imagine the consequences if they are held accountable by His Majesty for this matter.

Yun Ling walked into the crowd, her eyes swept over Bai Zhu, then turned from Yuchi Lan's somewhat weak and pale face to the officers and soldiers on duty.

"Prince Xiaowan traveled thousands of miles to Daxia and caught a cold on the way. Your Majesty is concerned about Prince Xiaowan's health and sent me to bring him some medicine."

When Yuchi Lan heard the word "decoction", his face became even uglier than before. Just the bowl of soup in the morning was enough to make him uncomfortable, and he had to drink it again in the evening. He might not be able to sleep tonight.

Everyone present was not a fool. They had never seen His Majesty attach so much importance to the envoys of any country. It seemed that the story of Prince Bao and Prince Xiaowan was most likely true.

Thinking of this, everyone's heart was tightened, especially those officers and soldiers who had insisted on checking just now.

Everyone could see that the masked man was reluctant to take off his mask and must have something to hide, but if someone was protecting him, then whether to investigate or not, and how to investigate, would make a big difference.

"Then Aunt Yunling, please go in quickly. The weather is cold, and the medicine needs to get cold."

The officers and soldiers on duty made way for Yun Ling to enter.

Yun Ling had arrived at the post station a long time ago. She had just been hiding behind the crowd to watch the excitement. There was something fishy about the people around Prince Xiaowan, and Prince Xiaowan might not be as harmless as he seemed. She would definitely report this to His Majesty when she returned.

But now, this bowl of medicine is the most important.

The "Lingchi knife" will fall on his body sooner or later, and it doesn't prevent Prince Xiaowan from suffering before that and adapting to the feeling of living under imperial power.
