Chapter 806 Back Into Prison

Yun Shang was surprised and sat up abruptly. "There are not so many guards in the Fuya prison, and there are also a lot secret guards around. How could he escape? Have you sent someone to chase him?"

Qian Yin hurriedly said, "The cell where the seventh prince was locked is made of stone, and the stone room is very small. The secret guards are patrolling outside. But no one expected that someone would dig into the ground and save the seventh prince. Fortunately, the secret guards check the cell every half an hour. The seventh prince has escaped for less than half an hour, and the secret guards have already gone after him.

Yun Shang frowned. She knew what kind of person the seventh prince was. If he wasn't fully prepared, he wouldn't have taken such a risk. Since he had escaped, the possibility of catching him was very small.

But the real commander's tally is in Luo Qingyan's hand. Where could the seventh prince go after he ran away from the prison? What did he intend to do?

Yun Shang was wondering where she would go if she were the seventh prince?

After thinking for a long while, Yun Shang threw the handkerchief aside irritably. She felt inexplicably frustrated. If she were the seventh prince, she would never break the prison at this time. Now the news of Empress Hua had just spread out, and many people in the Su clan wanted to kill Empress Hua. For the seventh prince, both the Su clan and Luo Qingyan were his enemies.

If it were her, she would definitely watch the fight from a distance. It would be the best if both the Su clan and Luo Qingyan suffer losses. The prison of Lingxi City was a rare good place for him to watch the fight. It was safe with so many secret guards guarding there and could help him lower people's guards.

If she were the seventh prince, she would never try to escape from the prison.

Yun Shang looked up at Qian Shang and said softly, "Where do you think the seventh prince will go after he escaped?"

Qian Zhuo meditated for a moment and then replied, "Your Highness often said that the most dangerous place is the safest. I think the seventh prince must be hiding among ordinary people. Lingxi City is neither too big nor too small. There are about one hundred thousand people in the city. It's hard to find him out in a short time."

The most dangerous place is the safest place? Yun Shang's lips curled up, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. "I know."

As Yun Shang spoke, she turned around and looked at Qian Zhuo. "Send a message to Lord Zhang, asking him to lock the city gate and forbid anyone to come in and out."

"City gate?" Qian Yin was surprised, but she didn't ask. She quickly responded and walked out of the room.

The most dangerous place was the safest. Once the seventh prince left the prison, he would definitely know that she had been in Lingxi City, and would guess her thoughts just as she had guessed him. He would definitely think that she would searching him the city, so his choice was most likely to leave the city as soon as possible.

Aft

said in a low voice, "These days, the city is not peaceful. I'm afraid that the killers sent by the Su clan will arrive at Lingxi City in two or three days. Wang Jinhuan is better at Qinggong*. I'll let him protect you. He could take you run away fast even if he is not able to defeat the opponent. (*TN: A Chinese martial arts technique that supposedly helps one lift and travel in the air.)

Frowning slightly, Lady Zhao didn't retort. She just nodded slightly and said, "I see."

The two of them sat for a while, stood up and continued to walk around the long corridor before slowly returning to the yard house. Not long after they returned, Wang Jinhuan came back and said, "The fake coachman is really the seventh prince. I've already asked the secret guards to catch him and send him back to the prison. He has been locked in a cell in the water dungeon. I'd like to see how he can run away again."

Yun Shang and Lady Zhao looked at each other. Yun Shang frowned and asked in confusion, "Why did he do such an unnecessary move?"

Wang Jinhuan shrugged. Without waiting for Yun Shang's order, he sat down on the chair, picked up a litchi on the table and ate it. "It doesn't matter. Anyway, we have caught him."

Yun Shang nodded slightly. She glanced at Wang Jinhuan and said, "You just stay with Lady Zhao these days and ensure her safety. If anything happens to her, you will be the one to blame. Is it ok?"

Wang Jinhuan was stunned. He gave a glance at Lady Zhao, who was sitting quietly next to Yun Shang. Seeing that Lady Zhao didn't say anything, he grinned and said, "Okay, Your Highness. Don't worry. I will definitely protect Lady Zhao even if I would die."

Yun Shang nodded slightly and took a sip of tea. "Since the seventh prince have been taken back and locked up in the prison, I don't think it's appropriate for me not to visit him since I am in Lingxi City."

Then Yun Shang turned to Qin Yi and said, "Go check if Qian Zhuo has come back. If she comes back, let her accompany me to the prison."
