In Roland's impression, "loving to surprise people" and "fond of sudden attacks" were the few things Li Lin and the Crown Prince had in common. Both of them were extremely fond of startling the public with major news, to the extent that whenever a sudden event occurred, people would instinctively suspect that these two were up to something, a situation likened to a match between two heroes of times past. However, the two had completely different purposes and attitudes toward deploying surprise tactics.
