After his father left, Zeng Anmin drew a deep breath and fixed his gaze on the secret passage entrance before him.
Without hesitation, he followed the Red-robed Guards led by Lin Rong into the depths of the secret passage.
The passage was simply too narrow; they could not pick up any speed at all.
After walking for a while, Zeng Anmin gradually grew restless.
Judging by the passage's direction, it led beyond the city.
Prince Jiang's Estate was not far from the city outskirts. At this pace, if the secret passage had been dug in a straight line—
Prince Jiang could not be far from leaving it by now.
"Where could the secret passage exit be?"
A sharp gleam flashed in Zeng Anmin's eyes.
At present, the city was filled with his father's men.
And when Prince Jiang dug this secret passage, he must have been guarding against the day he would be arrested.
Unless he was a fool, he would never place the exit within the city. Setting it inside the city would be no different from walking straight into a net.
The odds were high that it lay outside the city.
But if it was outside the city...
Following this direction—
It led toward the docks.
The docks saw a constant stream of travelers. If the secret passage exit were located there, someone would surely notice it; there was no way it could remain hidden.
Then where was it?
Zeng Anmin took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and pondered in silence.
Outside the city... Two Rivers Prefecture...
The river?!!
His eyes snapped open.
To hide it from prying eyes, angling the exit downward into the river would absolutely be the most concealed method!!
At that thought, his entire body jolted.
A scene instantly surfaced in his mind.
