Pei Huaian stopped in his tracks, turning his gaze to the person beside him. After a moment, he suddenly burst out laughing, "The Second Prince truly is an intelligent man, but this Crown Prince still wants to ask, how did you know?"
"I remember the person in the dark shot an arrow at me; at that time, I could have avoided it, but to satisfy the Crown Prince, I caught it forcefully."
"When I saw the look of surprise in the Crown Prince's eyes, and his decisive order to capture the assassin, I knew that person was definitely not sent by Jin Country, or rather, was not in league with the people here."
Otherwise, given Mo Chenxuan's character, he wouldn't have let anyone pursue; he must have wanted to know who sent that assassin as well.
"Very sharp indeed," Pei Huaian said with a clap of his hands in admiration.
Mo Chenran, head slightly bowed, did not take pride in these words; on the contrary, he became even more respectful. "Your Highness flatters me."
