Lin Chen couldn't stay by the prince's side all the time, so he needed to think of some way to prevent the prince from making any moves.

The princess agreed and said, "Then you go ahead and make the arrangements. It's a good thing for the prince to fall. Otherwise, he'll really think I don't care about these things. How can I destroy the bridge I had built like this? Of course, that's unacceptable."

After the princess finished speaking, although she still had some ideas, she felt that what Lin Chen said was too fast.

The fact that this had caused the people of the world to become enraged seemed to have also earned the prince's hatred. Naturally, the prince's hatred was reviled by the world, but the prince chose to target the princess with his reviling, which was quite vicious. Lin Chen immediately went out to inform everyone that a flood was imminent, so he wrote a notice and posted it on the edge of the moat, next to the bridge.

As soon as the notice was posted, it immediately attracted a lot of people to come and watch. Everyone thought that Lin Chen suddenly came to take the notice, and it seemed that he had something important to say. However, when they saw the content of the notice clearly, they were all shocked.

"What's going on? There's going to be a major flood, and how come we didn't know about it?"

The people all had their own opinions, but they all felt that danger was lurking everywhere. It looked like the bridge would not be safe again. "You just repaired the bridge, and now there's a flood again. It seems that God really doesn't want us to have an easy time."

"But Lin Chen, how did you hear this?" Lin Chen said, "The Crown Prince's men came to inform us, and we spread the word based on the Crown Prince's information. So just tell the Crown Prince that we already know he's going to work at the bridge here."

At this time, the princess was also writing a document to be submitted to the emperor, so that the emperor could see with his own eyes that his Royal Highness the Crown Prince was about to go to prevent the flood. It is conceivable what kind of farce this was, and it would of course be exposed later.

Lin Chen thought about it, but still wrote the notice more compactly, "It seems that the flood is about to occur. The prince cannot delay, and we, the people, must cooperate."

"Watch this bridge. We're going to keep watch today. We're going to stay here and monitor all the movements on this bridge. We're going to prevent any unrelated people from falling into danger. Do you understand?"

"We need to fence this area off now so that everyone can see that there is a problem with the bridge and that we need everyone's attention to prevent tragedy from happening again."

Lin Chen's words made the people a little worried. They couldn't help but think that the flood seemed to be imminent. Even the prince had to send people here, so these people certainly couldn't leave here and had to keep an eye on what was happening here.

The people all felt that they came here for the safety of the people's lives, not for the reputation of the prince. What's more, what the prince said had nothing to do with these people. The people just wanted to protect others from the danger of drowning. After all, the death of a person is extremely painful for every family member.

After these words, the people understood what Lin Chen meant, and instantly formed a circle around the bridge. Seeing that these people would stay here, Lin Chen's goal was achieved. He smiled and slowly left.

Just wait for the prince's people to come and destroy it. Then tell the world and everyone will know that not only is there no flood, but the prince is just being mysterious.

Even if they knew that it was Lin Chen who told them this, and not the prince himself, no one would care about it. They would all think that it was so infuriating that the prince actually wanted to destroy the bridge himself.

What did Lin Chen say? But no one cared.

When Lin Chen returned, he specially stayed in an inn, preparing to observe for a few days. He would wait for any commotion in the city to know when the prince would come, and also to know what the prince had done to make everything no longer peaceful.

A few days later, at the Prince's Mansion, they began to take action.

The prince led a group of soldiers towards the moat, and the people on the road were very happy to see him. "It seems that the prince has come to defend the bridge. We only know that a flood is coming."

As the prince walked along, he heard some rumors that the flood was caused by the prince. The prince was confused for a moment, "What flood are these people talking about? Could there be a flood here?"

Then the prince asked someone, and that person said, "Your Highness, didn't you say there would be a flood here?"

The prince thought, could it be that what the people said about a flood here is true? Wouldn't their people going there be courting death? But since they had come here, they couldn't return empty-handed, could they?

Moreover, this time, they had to build trust with the emperor, so they couldn't give up easily. The prince thought it was troublesome, but he still asked these people out of concern, "If it's so dangerous here, why are you staying here? Can't you disperse?"

The prince actually wanted all these people to leave so that he could take these soldiers to personally demolish the bridge and no one would see it, but these people insisted on staying here to watch.

Even so, the prince said to the people, "This bridge is not well built. We need to rebuild it."

"This has also been approved by the princess," he specifically mentioned the word princess, just to let everyone know that this was done with the consent of Lin Chen and others before he came to cross the river and demolish the bridge.

The words were so flawless that it seemed as if anyone could believe them. So when the people saw that after a day and a night, the flood did not come, but the prince had completely dismantled the bridge.

Everyone was surprised. Wasn't there a flood? Why did the prince tear down the newly built bridge and then spit on it, cursing the people who built it for being dishonest?

They also heard the prince's curse and thought that the prince was cursing Lin Chen. Everyone was very confused, but when they thought about the whole story, it seemed that it was really the prince who destroyed the bridge. Now there was no bridge to cross the river, and some people fell into the river and died unfortunately. All this was blamed on the prince.

The people immediately complained, wondering why the bridge had been repaired and now it had been destroyed by the prince. What was going on?

"He said the flood was nothing. It's a shame for us to waste the bridge that Lin Chen spent so much time and effort to build."

Lin Chen was still sleeping in the inn, thinking that the bridge should not have been destroyed yet. But when he woke up, he heard the news that the bridge had been demolished and only a few piles were left. Moreover, all the people were cursing the prince.

Lin Chen thought that his goal had been achieved halfway, but not half. What he achieved was that the prince became the target of public criticism again, but what he failed to achieve was that the bridge was destroyed again. Now he had to rebuild it all over again. Lin Chen could only become more impatient.

But I think we have to wait a while, after all, the prince will go to repair the bridge himself, but that’s all in the future.
