Yan An watched as the slender figure disappeared at the doorway, and he couldn't suppress the malice in his eyes any longer; he pounded the ground fiercely with his hand.
He had suffered heavy losses tonight, with all his carefully trained Hidden Guards killed!
Moreover, it was done by the Crown Prince himself. If he pursued the issue of an official privately maintaining Hidden Guards, that would really cost him dearly, even if he wasn't pursued for his own fault, he would no longer be able to curry favor with the Crown Prince.
If that's the case...
Then the only choice left to him was clear.
A look of regret flashed across Yan An's eyes.
