To determine the correct modal verb, we analyze the context. The sentence describes a repeated action in the past (the prince sneaking out when he was young). "Would" is used to indicate a past habitual action, "could" implies ability, and "might" implies possibility. Since the action was habitual, "would" is the best fit.
