“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”
The man who had splashed Song Yin’s face full of water steadied himself and apologized one after another, but his gaze never left Song Yin’s face. Their disguises were all afraid of water, and Song Yin’s must be too.
“You did that on purpose, didn’t you?”
Before Song Yin could say anything, Song Wangyue pushed the man who had thrown the water, causing him to stumble backwards and hit the door frame hard. The man immediately grimaced in pain, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Song Wangyue was not finished yet, her voice was louder than the others, “What has Captain Song done to offend you that you want to throw water on his face in front of a public audience?”
“Don’t be angry, Miss ……”
The person who splashed the water endured the pain to stand firm and bowed to make amends, “I was indeed careless and did not mean to do so.”
“Not on purpose? How could the timing be so coincidental, we happened to pass by, you happened to come out with the teapot and happened to trip over it? I think you did it on purpose!”
Being blocked by the person who threw the water, the Third Prince could not see Song Yin’s appearance at the moment, anxious in his heart, he stood up and walked to the door, “This girl, he really didn’t do it on purpose ……”
He said, he took out a clean white handkerchief and handed it over, “This brother, I apologize to you on his behalf, you can wipe it first.”
“No way. Who knows what you have in mind?”
Seeing how she defended Song Yin, the Third Prince became more and more certain of his suspicion that the man in front of him was Chu Yunxiao was correct.
He suppressed his excitement, “Miss, you are being petty, I just let this brother wipe his face, there is nothing else on my mind.”
The noise over here attracted all the guests in the restaurant, those on the first floor stood far away at the mouth of the elegant room to watch the action, and those in the lobby on the ground floor put down their chopsticks and walked up the stairs to watch.
“I have a small human heart ……”
Song Wan Yue was furious and moved the wine jar in Song Yi’s hand and slapped it open, splashing it towards the third prince’s face.
No one in the crowd expected her to suddenly make this move, and all of them let out a shocked cry.
The Third Prince even forgot to dodge and a small jar of wine was splashed on his face. He pointed at Song Wangyue, unable to speak in anger, “You, you, you ……”
The crowd let out a shocked cry, and Song Wangyue covered her mouth, taking two steps back and almost falling down the stairs.
The third prince then remembered with hindsight that he had also disguised himself, and being splashed with wine like this, he was definitely exposed.
He hastily covered himself up, but it was already too late, as someone exclaimed, “They’ve changed their faces.
The rest of the people blocked the stairs to prevent the Third Prince and his party from going down, and the owner of the tavern even instructed his men to close the door.
The third prince panicked and dragged his staff back to the elegant room, ready to jump out of the window.
Song Yi and his five men went in quickly and restrained the two men.
Shen Yan came quickly and ordered the men to surround the tavern and rapped open the door of the restaurant.
The shopkeeper quickly stepped forward, “General Shen, you are here, they are upstairs.”
The people blocking the stairs made way for Shen Yan to lead the men up, his stern gaze swept over the two men’s faces and waved his hand, “Take them away!”
“Shen Yan, you dare!”
The third prince struggled.
Hearing him call General Shen by his name, the onlookers once again exploded.
“It’s the enemy’s scouts all right, General, you must not spare them lightly.”
“That’s right, that’s right, they are too shameless, they can’t beat us in war, so they come to spy on us, such people should have their heads chopped off and hung on the city tower, let’s see if they still dare not dare to send anyone over again.”
……
“I am ……”
The third prince’s forehead was blue with anger, and he was about to blurt out his identity offhand, but was stopped in time by his handlers, “My lord, we are upright and not afraid to take a trip with General Shen.”
“I pooh!”
The man standing in front of them spat at them as soon as the handlers’ words left their mouths, “You’re all disguised, and you’re still upright? How dare you say that.”
The curtain-keeper had been by the Third Prince’s side for many years and had always been respected, when had he ever been treated like this, but thinking that his master’s identity must not be revealed, he endured it and lowered his head without speaking.
The Third Prince also understood what he meant and swallowed back the words he was going to say to make his identity known.
“Take away!”
A few soldiers stepped forward and pushed and shoved the man down the stairs.
“Are you all right?”
Shen Yan looked at Song Yin.
Song Yin’s face had been wiped clean, and a large part of his chest was still wet, “In reply to the General’s words, I am fine.”
“Good if nothing happened, protect Miss Song well, if anything happens to her, you don’t have to go back to the barracks.”
“Yes.”
Shen Yan turned around and went downstairs, leading his men away.
The men who were guarding the shadows to protect the Third Prince followed closely.
The incident had happened so suddenly that none of them had reacted before the door of the tavern was closed. They did not dare to break in for fear that all of them would fold here.
The Third Prince and his staff were pushed and shoved forward by the soldiers.
When had he ever been humiliated like this? He was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth, plus some of the stuff smeared on his face had been washed off by the wine, leaving some of it bloody; another part of his face was still plastered on. It looked shocking.
More people pointed and even threw things at him, and as some took the lead, others followed suit, throwing things at him.
The soldiers who pushed him moved away from them for fear of being hit themselves, and all the objects thrown at them fell on the two men.
The Third Prince could not hold back any longer and roared, “Stop, stop, I am the Third Prince Chu Yi, if you dare to do it again, I will destroy your whole clan!”
In his anger he shouted so loudly that the whole street heard him and they all froze.
“The Third Prince has been deported to Youzhou by the Emperor and is forbidden to leave for eternity without a decree. You have the audacity to impersonate the Emperor’s son.”
Shen Yan’s voice flooded with coldness came over.
The Third Prince had only revealed his identity in his anger, and he regretted it when he had finished speaking, but when he heard Shen Yan’s cold words, he could not care about anything else.
“Shen Yan, take a good look at my face, I don’t believe you don’t recognise me?”
“There are many people who look alike in the world, even if you look a bit similar to the Third Prince, what’s so unusual about it?”
Shen Yan was unmoved.
“I, I still have something to prove my identity.”
The third prince said, reaching into his pocket; every prince was given a jade medal after birth, with their name on the front and a design representing their identity on the back.
The soldier stepped forward and took the jade medal in the Third Prince’s hand and presented it to Shen Yan with both hands.
Shen Yan picked it up and looked at it carefully before driving his horse over to the Third Prince, “It really is the Third Prince.”
The Third Prince was delighted.
But before he could say anything, he heard Shen Yan ask coldly, “What is the Third Prince doing here in Border City if he is not staying honestly in Youzhou?”
