Chương 218: Sudden Attack II

After Zheng Liang alighted from the carriage, Gu Lan hurried towards him and informed him about the incident, saying, "Your Highness, it wasn't an accident. Someone deliberately scattered small pieces of sharp glass on the ground, which frightened the horses, causing them to react like this."

"This area is unsafe. We should leave immediately," Gu Lan urged, casting cautious glances around.

Zheng Liang's expression darkened upon hearing this revelation. He had taken great care to keep his journey a secret, sharing the information only with a select few individuals he trusted - his loyal staff of servants and guards. The fact that someone could orchestrate such a malicious plan in advance left him bewildered.

Considering that not many people were aware of his purpose in coming to Xinling City for inspection, he couldn't fathom how someone had managed to premeditate and execute this sinister act.
