Seeing Hou Junji's expression, Li Tai felt a sudden slap in his heart.
Only Li Tai himself knew how much his father and mother were protecting Zhao Chen.
Compared with Zhao Chen, he has no sense of existence at all.
On New Year's Eve, the prince, he, got out of the Lizheng Hall in front of everyone.
As a normal parent, how can you not protect your son?
Many times, Li Tai even feels that his existence is a completely wrong.
He, Zhao Chen, should be the son of the emperor and the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.
"General Hou, I ask you, what is the relationship between Zhao Chen and his father and mother?" Li Tai stood up and stared at Hou Junji's eyes.
Hou Junji was stunned for a moment and moved away his eyes that were looking at Li Tai.
For a moment, Hou Junji wanted to tell Li Tai about Zhao Chen's true identity.
But thinking about his current situation, Hou Junji resisted the urge to take revenge in his heart.
So what if you tell Zhao Chen’s identity?
Are you looking forward to Li Tai taking Zhao Chen down?
With his own help, Li Tai did not shake Zhao Chen at all.
Revealing Zhao Chen's identity will only make Li Tai impulsive.
Hou Junji didn't care about Li Tai's life and death, but he didn't want to see Zhao Chen go all out once and for all from then on.
What Hou Junji wanted was that Zhao Chen was being plotted by Li Tai all the time.
This kind of feeling of being unable to stop is the most tormenting.
"What kind of identity can Zhao Chen, a country boy, have, just a great fortune."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince won't really think the rumors outside are true, right?"
"You have to remember that you are still sitting in the position of the prince." Hou Junji smiled.
Li Tai frowned. He always felt that things were not as simple as Hou Junji said.
But I can't tell where there is a problem.
As Hou Junji said, he was a prince, and he was still in good condition.
"Since that's the case, General Hou stayed here in this palace. I think that Zhao Chen will definitely not be able to..."
"Your Highness, Luo Tong and a group of cavalry surrounded the Prince's Mansion!" Before Li Tai finished speaking, he heard a panic sound from outside.
...
When Zhao Chen entered Ganquan Hall, an eunuch hurriedly left.
Wei Zheng stood aside and nodded to Zhao Chen.
"Zhao Chen, you have no official position, how did you come into the palace?" Old Li knew that Zhao Chen was here to make things difficult for him.
How could I be willing to do this in my heart?
Of course, I was thinking about taking the lead.
Let’s drive Zhao Chen out first.
Zhao Chen is not so easy to fool.
Without answering the emperor's words, he asked directly: "Your Majesty let Hou Junji go?"
Old Li glared at Wei Zheng beside him with a fierce look, and said indifferently: "What do I do? Do you still need to report to you?"
"It's not necessary to report it all, but Hou Junji is so unforgivable, Your Majesty is very kind."
"I think it won't take long to come, and all places will rise up. Anyway, your Majesty is kind and rebellious, so I think he will laugh it off." Zhao Chen looked at the emperor with a sarcastic look on his face.
Old Li hated Zhao Chen's expression the most.
This silent mockery made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Brother Zhao, if you look at me with this kind of eyes, do you believe it or not?" Old Li walked down angrily.
"What Your Majesty does is a look of my eyes." Zhao Chen said expressionlessly.
Old Li wanted to slap Zhao Chen with a slap.
But he was a little suspicious of Zhao Chen's skills.
Maybe he was not Zhao Chen's opponent, but he was pressed to the ground and beaten up. The scene would be embarrassing.
"The person has been released, what do you do to me?" Old Li had a broken attitude.
Wei Zheng stared at the emperor blankly.
He didn't expect the emperor to speak like this, but the effect was quite good.
At least Zhao Chen seemed to have no words to refute for a while.
After all, the emperor is the emperor. If he cheats, who can do what he can do?
When Old Li saw that Zhao Chen was not speaking, he felt relieved.
He also wanted to hide Zhao Chen's identity for a while, at least not to disclose it to Zhao Chen before going to Jiangnan.
After going to Jiangnan, I spent a long time with Zhao Chen, and their relationship was closer.
Besides, I can at least persuade him to persuade him.
Moreover, Li Shimin did not think of how to appease him when Li Tai was there.
Li Tai is not Li Chengqian, and Li Shimin cannot say that he will be thrown away.
"Then let me search the East Palace." Zhao Chen looked up and looked at the emperor.
Wei Zheng stood aside, thrusting his lips hard twice.
He just said casually, the emperor didn't take it seriously.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen really wanted to ask the emperor to agree to search the East Palace.
This is not a joke!
Old Li was also confused by Zhao Chen's request.
The emperor even felt that this was the idea that Wei Zheng, the old guy, gave to Zhao Chen.
Searching the Eastern Palace, why don’t you say searching the Royal Palace?
"Zhao..."
"The officials know what crime Hou Junji committed, and the people in the world know that he has escaped from prison. How long does His Majesty think he can hide it?"
"The Heavenly Prison in Dali Temple is under strict security and no one can help. How could Hou Junji escape?"
"And if you want to save Hou Junji, there are only three people who are possible."
"Dazhou, the young minister of Dali Temple, the prince, and you are your Majesty!"
"Does Your Majesty think Dai Zhou will help His Majesty take this responsibility, or are you going to let the prince take responsibility?"
"Or can Your Majesty directly tell the officials that it was Your Majesty who let Hou Junji go?" Zhao Chen slowly analyzed the pros and cons of this matter with Lao Li.
The emperor showed a look of hesitation on his face.
Of course, he would not make it public that he let Hou Junji go.
Otherwise, how could he, the emperor, convince the public?
As the young minister of Dali Temple, how could Dai Zhou bear the blame for raiding his family and extermination?
Neither Dai Zhou would bear such a responsibility, and Li Tai could not bear it.
"The prince and Hou Junji have a close personal relationship, and all the officials know it well. Why would Your Majesty ask me to search the East Palace?"
"In this way, it can also prove the prince's innocence."
"What do you think?" Zhao Chen said again, and finally asked the emperor again.
Wei Zheng turned his head away.
He admired Zhao Chen's eloquence in his heart.
If the Eastern Palace does not search, it means that the prince hides Hou Junji.
If this news spreads, Li Tai will not think about firmly as the prince in the future.
People always wonder if Li Tai lets Hou Junji go.
If it weren't for knowing that Zhao Chen was thinking of taking revenge on Li Tai from the bottom of his heart, Wei Zheng would have felt that Zhao Chen was really thinking about Li Tai.
"Your Majesty, I feel that what Zhao Chen said makes sense. Hou Junji escapes from prison, so there must be an explanation."
"We can't stop searching, without any action." Wei Zheng said alongside Zhao Chen's words.
"It makes sense, don't think I don't know what you guy wants to do!" The emperor sweared.
He knew that Zhao Chen wanted to take revenge on Li Tai.
As Zhao Chen said, Hou Junji escaped from prison, so he had to have an explanation.
The emperor, who agreed to Zhao Chen's request to search the Eastern Palace, can not only eliminate his own suspicion, but also eliminate Li Tai's suspicion.
The end is the best of both worlds.
But will Zhao Chen just search the East Palace?
The emperor felt that this was probably because he was daydreaming.
"I can agree to your request, but the prince is the crown prince. If you can't find anyone, get out of here."
