”Oh.” The Crown Prince drew out his words.

Concubine Mei felt a chill down her back.

”So you're telling me that someone was trying to break the wall from the inside was a spy. This hole was made by a least a seventh-grade magic user and you're trying to tell me that he couldn't get out using magic but he had to break a hole in the wall that's not even big enough to fit through. Or are you trying to tell me a 7th-grade magic user was trying to break the wall for fun? Or perhaps, every time, something bad happens you blame a spy. You really opened my eyes.”

While he talked, someone sneakily mixed in the crowd.

”I saw it! Someone in a black hit that wall.”

Everyone turned to look at Hongyue who was wearing a simple-minded smile on her face.

The Crown Prince furrowed his eyebrows. This little girl's timing is actually great. The General scowled. What was this little brat doing here?

”He used some weird words and suddenly the wall had a hole. Then he went that way.” Hongyue pointed toward the General's bedroom.

”Nonsense! Why would I do that?!” The General was growing more and more upset.

Hongyue tilted her head and pretended to look clueless and suddenly started to cry.

”I..I never said it was you. Why are you so mad..”

The General froze.

”General, you don't mind leading the way so this Prince can be assured,” The Crown Prince looked at the General, ”Right?”
