Nan Yan stands up and steps back a few steps, shaking his head silently to show that he is all right.

Liyi is also scared. Seeing that Nan Yan is OK, she claps her chest and says, "Thank goodness you are OK."

"You are OK. This doesn’t mean I’m ok with you!" a cold voice comes from the carriage in the middle of the street.

Hearing this voice, Yan Ling is shocked. It’s easy to imagine who he is. It's such a small world.

Yes, the man on the carriage is Liang Yi, the Third Prince.

Yan Ling feels terrible. When she came out, she did change into men's clothes, disguising her original appearance with a makeup.

To be honest, Yan Ling is confident that she will not be exposed. But she doesn't know why she always feels a bit flustered at this moment. It seems that she could be recognized by someone.

"Your Highness." Yan Ling bows, lowering her head unnaturally.

"Oh, you know me."

Liang Yi seems to be a little complacent, and then he changes the subject: "Then, do you know you have committed a crime?"

Yan Ling looks at the people in the carriage quietly, and keeps her head low, "I don't know, Your Highness."

"I just saw that your carriage almost hurt that little girl, and my servant saved her. I don’t think there is anything that we are guilty of, Your Highness." Frowning, Yan Ling says with due dignity.

"Good! Good! " Liang Yi didn't expect that this girl dares to refute him.

"What an eloquent villain. You really have a glib tongue. However, I only saw that you shocked my horse and intended to murder me! " Liang Yi shouts, a little annoyed.

Yan Ling clenches her fists. She didn't think that the Third Prince would be so arrogant. He dares to call black white in public.

"So many people are watching! How can you ignore the law, Your Highness?” Yan Ling becomes angry.

"Yes? So many people are watching. Then ask them who can be a witness! What's more, you said that my carriage almost hurt people. Where is the victim? " Liang Yi takes her words as a joke and says rudely.

Hearing this, Yan Ling looks around but everyone tries to avoid eye contact with her as if she were a monster. And the little girl who just stood by her side has already gone away.

"That little girl's mother came. Seeing something wrong here, she took her away quickly." Liyi says, very angrily.

Yan Ling's feeling is inexplicably complicated. With her second life, she still doesn’t understand the complexity of human nature, which is really ridiculous.

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

"We need to follow our conscience. What others do is their choice" Seeing that Yan Ling feels a little depressed, Nan Yan suddenly raises his head and says.

Although, in others’ eyes, Nan Yan said this to the Third Prince in the carriage, only Yan Ling herself knows that Nan Yan was saying this to her.

Yan Ling is suddenly relieved. Unexpectedly, she was enlightened by a child at last.

Nan Yan is right. Of course, gratitude is the best result. But how can there be so many good results in the world? What's more, what's the point of doing a good deed if one does these for getting someone’s reward?

However, for Yan Ling, the meaning of this sentence is far from that. In the previous life, she was used by others, and finally harmed others and herself. In this life, Yan Ling has been evading something. But she forgets that what happened in the previous life will never happen again. All she needs to do is to follow her heart.

"You are right. We only need to have a clear conscience. What's the use of quarrel!" Yan Ling sticks out her chest, as if the burden in her heart were finally put down.

"Of course, quarrel is useless. Then save your words for the king of hell! Come on, get them all!" Liang Yi becomes even angrier when he finds out that these people have such an attitude.

There are many bodyguards around the Third Prince when he is going out. As soon as the order is given, a dozen people gather around Yan Ling, ready to arrest them at any time.

Although Yan Ling shouted with great courage just now, she feels a little uneasy and clenches her fists subconsciously when they are surrounded by so many people.

As for Nan Yan, he stands in front of Yan Ling and Liyi immediately.

"Stop!"

When Yan Ling feels that something is going wrong, a familiar voice suddenly comes from the crowd not far away.

"What are you doing? Take them!" Liang Yi naturally hears the voice, but pretends not to hear it and continues to urge the bodyguards.

Those who surround Yan Ling naturally follow the order of their master. They are ready to catch Yan Ling immediately.

However, before the bodyguards touch them, they are stopped by someone in black descending from the sky. Before they realize what has happened, they fall to the ground.

"What are you doing, Brother?" Liang Yi doesn’t expect Liang He would act directly, and his face darkens.

"Nothing. I didn't intend to stop you from doing things. Only because this man is my friend, I can't afford to watch them being hurt." Liang He says lightly.

The black gown almost makes him integrate into the night, but at this time, he appears so dazzling. Even Yan Ling is stunned.

"Oh? Is he? Why haven’t I heard that his Royal Highness has such a friend?" Liang Yi hears that the man is a friend of Liang He, and subconsciously thinks that he is a dignitary in the capital.

However, looking closely, Yi finds that although this man looks familiar, he has never met him before. In retrospect, this man insists that he has always been humble, how could he be a high-ranking person?

Thinking in this way, Liang Yi believes that Liang He appears suddenly in order to embarrass him deliberately. He clenches his teeth.

"A talented but unknown scholar whom I have been acquainted with recently. It's natural that you haven't met him, Brother." Liang He explains.

Liang He naturally sees what Liang Yi is thinking about. But even so, he could not rashly expose Yan Ling's identity, so he could only give him such a reason.

Liang Yi is stunned at first, but on second thoughts, it is in line with the Crown Highness's characteristics of making friends with all kinds of talented people. Liang Yi feels a little comfortable.

Seeing this, Liang He can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Of course, it's not because he is afraid of Liang Yi.

Although both of them are clear about the relationship between them, in others’ eyes, they need to show love and respect as good brothers should. If they expose the true situation, the whole Imperial court will be affected.
