Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

After the group descended the city wall...

At this moment, Yin Pan'er stood under the city wall, filled with anticipation.

Looking forward to it.

At this moment, she was just as nervous as Xiao Ce.

Although I had met him before, Xiao Ce had been wearing a mask back then.

Although the two knew that the other knew everything, neither of them brought up that layer of their relationship.

Therefore, this was also the first formal meeting...

At this moment, Yin Pan'er watched as Xiao Ce hurriedly came down from the city wall.

Unable to contain her excitement, she ran straight towards Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce also saw Yin Pan'er running towards him.

The two people went their separate ways.

"Your Highness!" Yin Pan'er's voice trembled slightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Xiao Ce hugged Yin Pan'er tightly: "Pan'er, you've suffered so much!"

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er felt a surge of grievances, and all the hardships and dangers she had encountered along the way came to mind.

She then buried her face in Xiao Ce's chest and began to cry.

Xiao Ce knew very well what he had been through; as a time traveler, his journey had been quite arduous.

Not to mention, Yin Pan'er is a woman, how difficult her journey must be.

Xiaoyue, watching from the side, was also overjoyed and cried tears of joy.

She felt gratified for Yin Pan'er.

Because Yin Pan'er has witnessed all of these experiences firsthand.

Xiao Ce said nothing, because he didn't know what to say.

Xiao Ce considered himself eloquent, but in front of Yin Pan'er...

At that moment, he felt that saying anything more would be futile.

After watching Yin Pan'er cry for a while, Xiao Ce thought it was about time.

He then said to Yin Pan'er, "Pan'er, everything is in the past now. I won't let you rush ahead of me anymore!"

"I won't allow you to be at the forefront anymore, understand? I'll handle everything! I can protect you! I need your help, but not this kind of help..."

Hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er raised her head with red and swollen eyes, and then said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, I understand... but my initial departure wasn't entirely for you... it was also for Nie Bing... but later I got more and more involved... until now I can't extricate myself..."

Yin Pan'er gave a brief explanation.

Xiao Ce nodded: "It's over! This time, don't leave without saying goodbye... and don't hide from me..."

Yin Pan'er nodded gratefully, then said, "Okay!"

Both of them had imagined all sorts of scenarios after they met, but it seemed that this was the only one they hadn't considered.

The relationship was simple yet warm, and the two people did not become estranged as time went by.

On the contrary, everything is so natural.

At this moment, Yin Pan'er looked at the people around her and wiped away her tears.

"Your Highness, so many people are watching..."

Seeing Yin Pan'er trying to break free from Xiao Ce's embrace, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "What's wrong with looking? You're my wife."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er's face flushed slightly.

During their banter, Xiao Ce realized that Yin Pan'er still wanted to greet the others, so he let go of her.

Yin Pan'er wiped away her tears and first looked at Da Lei.

He then smiled knowingly.

Da Lei bowed to Yin Pan'er: "Your Highness!"

Yin Pan'er said to Da Lei, "Da Lei, you've worked so hard... following the Prince around like this all this time!"

Da Lei shook his head: "I should thank Your Highness for giving me such a great opportunity. My experiences over the years are probably something that others could not experience in several lifetimes, or even more than ten lifetimes."

After hearing Da Lei's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "Da Lei, how come you've learned so much about human relationships after following the Prince for so long..."

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Da Lei quickly said, "It's not about social etiquette, I'm just stating the facts..."

Yin Pan'er smiled and said to Da Lei, "Da Lei, I was just joking with you..."

After listening to Yin Pan'er's words, Da Lei smiled and said, "I understand!"

Actually, Yin Pan'er and Da Lei have a very good relationship. In fact, at the beginning, Da Lei and Yin Pan'er had a better relationship.

So, the two can be considered old friends reunited.

After listening to Da Lei's words, Yin Pan'er looked at Boudica, who was standing to the side looking rather awkward.

Yin Pan'er noticed Boudica's unease.

Clearly, Boudica felt betrayed by Yin Pan'er because she was also with Xiao Ce.

Boudica always felt that someone was taking advantage of her vulnerability.

He said directly to Boudica, "Boudica, it's been a long time!"

Boudica had been standing behind, hesitant to step forward due to some concerns.

Upon hearing this voice, Boudica immediately ran to Yin Pan'er.

"Sister Pan'er, it's been a long time!"

The two of them then gave each other a big hug.

Just then, Boudica whispered to Yin Pan'er, "Sister Yin Pan'er, I'm sorry... Don't worry, I absolutely didn't mean to take advantage of you... I..."

Hearing Boudica say this, Yin Pan'er quickly interrupted, "Boudica, don't say sorry... I should be thanking you... No one ever takes advantage of a vulnerable situation... and don't say that... I already told you, we're sisters! I should also thank you for taking care of the Prince for me..."

Boudica looked at Yin Pan'er and saw the sincere expression on Yin Pan'er's face.

nodded.

At this moment, Eliza stepped forward and said, "Acting Lady Yin Pan'er, is it alright for you to come here and interact with us like this so openly?"

After hearing Eliza's words, Yin Pan'er smiled at Eliza and said, "Eliza, it's alright. It's nothing! Judging from Xiao Ce's personality, that two-faced William Barton won't live long! Besides, the Shadow Guards here are positioned in a way that most people can't reach. Those who really want to watch the show have all gone to that castle... this place is a blind spot... it's generally unlikely to be discovered, but even if it is discovered in the current situation, it doesn't matter..."

"After all, if I come to you now, they'll just think I'm here to harm you... They don't know about my past with the prince... Don't worry."

Seeing that Yin Pan had completely lost the timid and dependent feeling she had just had, she had switched into strong woman mode almost instantly.

After Yin Pan'er said this, Xiao Ce did not hide anything from her.

"Indeed, if William Barton were a bit smarter, he might still have a chance to survive. But in the current situation, it's clear there's no way out; he's doomed..."

Yin Pan'er nodded and subconsciously took Xiao Ce's arm.

"I didn't disturb you, did I? What were you busy with just now... please continue, I'll just watch from behind."

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled slightly: "It's alright, I've already finished reading it..."

Yin Pan'er said to Boudica, "After Boudica learned that Paul was attacking, did no one come to see you?"

Boudica shook her head, then said to Yin Pan'er, "Sister Pan'er, no, we've known what these people are really like for a long time... However, after today, our Targaryen Castle will be besieged again..."

"Isn't there a saying? 'If you're strong enough, they won't betray you.' To ensure that no one dares to betray you, you must become eternally strong..."

Hearing Boudica say that, Yin Pan'er smiled: "Haha, that's really how it is... and it fits the Prince's personality..."

Then Yin Pan'er asked Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, where did you get all those weapons?"

Xiao Ce didn't hide anything from Yin Pan'er and said directly, "Someone gave me a production line and some lathes for producing those weapons... and I happen to have the blueprints for those firearms..."

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "Are you talking about the blueprints for those incredibly powerful weapons that we gave to the Tianji Academy before?"

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "That's right, those are the very powerful blueprints from the Heavenly Mystery Institute..."

Yin Pan'er asked with some surprise, "Can they make these using machine lathes here?"

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "I don't know if it's possible to make them, because I don't know much about the lathes used for making these weapons here... But the mechanical lathes I received are perfectly capable of doing it... Have you made them before?"

Yin Pan'er nodded: "That's right. Actually, back then, I used my connections with the East Asia Association president to visit those armory production sites. I also disassembled those firearms and had them randomly manufacture a few of the parts I considered the most difficult. Unsurprisingly, they simply couldn't make them..."

Xiao Ce was somewhat surprised after hearing Yin Pan'er's words: "Oh? So, you mean that my machine tools are far superior to those in the best weapons factories?"

Yin Pan'er nodded: "That's right, I've inquired about it. The machine tools in the military factories controlled by the Illuminati are the most advanced..."

Xiao Ce felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing Yin Pan'er's words.

Seeing Xiao Ce's expression, Yin Pan'er quickly asked, "Your Highness, are you alright...?"

Xiao Ce gave Yin Pan'er an awkward smile, then said, "I think I did something stupid. I didn't really know anything about the machine tools here. I just had Kimberly get me a few sets and sent them to the Tianji Academy. I wanted to put the core technology in Xiao Kingdom and then start production... I didn't even consider whether the set they sent me was the same as the one outside... It seems I really did do something stupid..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, you won't. You should trust the wisdom of the people of Xiao Kingdom. In fact, the machine tools here are already advanced for our Xiao Kingdom. Perhaps what they can't do, we can do... After improvement, we can still do it."

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "What you say is indeed possible... Now it seems you've really given me a great gift..."

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce curiously.

Before Yin Pan'er could even speak, Xiao Ce had already guessed it.

He said directly to Yin Pan'er, "Pan'er, I'll tell you after we get back..."

Just then, the shadow guards on the city wall blew a whistle.

Xiao Ce subconsciously looked up at the city wall, and at that moment, the people around him started to move.

Boudica asked Xiao Ce, "Ce, has he arrived?"

Xiao Ce nodded, then said to Da Lei, "Make masks for Yin Pan'er and Xiao Yue."

Da Lei nodded.

Xiaoyue said to Yin Pan'er with some concern, "My lord, you are injured... are you sure you still want to go?"

After hearing Xiaoyue's words, Xiao Ce asked Yin Pan'er nervously, "Are you injured? Where are you injured?"

Yin Pan'er smiled at Xiao Ce, then said to Xiao Yue, "Alright, Xiao Yue! Don't scare people... This isn't even an injury... In a little while, the wound will be almost healed."

Seeing that Xiao Ce still looked nervous, Yin Pan'er smiled helplessly and explained, "Didn't you have Xu Kong remove the sensor from my body? It was just a tiny cut, less than the size of a fingernail, not even a wound. Besides, Xu Kong applied medicine for me. Xu Kong's external wound medicines are all top-grade, so there shouldn't be any problems..."

Xiao Ce actually knew that Xiao Yue said that because she was worried about Yin Pan'er and didn't want Yin Pan'er to go up.

After all, guns and cannons have no eyes... and bullets don't have eyes either...

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "If you're sure there's no problem, you don't really need to go up... Although we're confident, you know bullets don't have eyes, and we're not entirely sure if the enemy has any weapons more powerful than ours..."

When Yin Pan'er heard Xiao Ce say that, she stared straight at him.

Xiao Ce felt uneasy being stared at so intently by Yin Pan'er.

He turned directly to Yin Pan'er and asked, "Pan'er, why are you looking at me like that... I'm still a little scared when you look at me like that..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and then said to Xiao Ce, "Have you forgotten what you just said to me?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce was stunned for a moment, then said, "Let's face it together?"

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "That's right, we just agreed to face everything together, but you forgot all about it as soon as you said it..."

Xiao Ce said to Yin Pan'er, "You're right, then let's go together!"

Yin Pan'er then revealed a shy expression and took Xiao Ce's arm.

“That’s pretty much it!!”
