"Prince, what should we do now?"
"If I had known, I would have heard from Hou Junji. I would have sent him away before Zhao Chen came."
"Now……"
Seeing Luo Tong and his crowd searching around the prince's mansion, Du He's face was filled with worry and regret.
If he had listened to Hou Junji before Zhao Chen came, he would have sent Hou Junji away from here.
They are not so anxious now.
Hou Junji was at the crown prince's mansion. It was only a matter of time before searching this way and finding Hou Junji's hiding place.
Once Zhao Chen caught Hou Junji, they could not escape the crime of hiding the traitors.
Zhao Chen is here today, and it is likely that he will take revenge on Li Tai.
If Hou Junji is really caught, Du He will find it difficult to believe what will happen to those of him.
At this moment, Li Tai felt cold in his hands and feet.
Looking at the people in front of him who didn't even let some blind spots go, Li Tai's heart was in his throat.
It was not necessary for Du He to tell him, Li Tai knew that once Zhao Chen captured Hou Junji in his crown prince's mansion.
What will be waiting for yourself?
Who would believe that Hou Junji came from himself?
Especially Zhao Chen, if he makes some evidence at that time, his prince will probably be dead.
"What's going on inside now? Where have they searched?" Li Tai asked in a low voice.
Carefully looked at Zhao Chen standing in the yard in front of him.
"The situation is not good, and there are people guarding the commanding heights everywhere. Once Hou Junji appears, they will definitely not be able to escape their eyes."
"The search has been completed before, and the next one is the west side room, where Hou Junji was arranged."
"I just don't know what happened to Hou Junji!" Du He whispered to Li Tai and told him the current situation.
The wing room where Hou Junji is located is about to be searched.
Zhao Chen arranged people to stare at each part of the Eastern Palace. Once Hou Junji appears, he will definitely be discovered.
When Li Tai heard this, his face became more and more ugly.
"You go and have a look first, be careful, don't be discovered by Zhao Chen." Li Tai and Du He whispered.
Du He looked at Zhao Chen and saw that he had no movement, so he carefully stepped back, bypassed Zhao Chen's gaze, and went to the wing room on the west side from the side.
"Zhao Chen, my father really values ​​you. He actually asked you to search the East Palace." Li Tai walked to Zhao Chen, his tone sounded a little resentful.
The East Palace, the residence of the crown prince.
Is it just randomly someone to search?
Li Tai already felt a little resentful to the emperor.
On New Year's Eve, he lost a bet with Zhao Chen and was asked to get out of the Li Zheng Hall. Li Tai could still convince himself that the emperor was fair and would not favor anyone.
But today, for no reason, the emperor actually allowed Zhao Chen to bring people to search his prince's mansion.
Li Tai couldn't figure it out, and he felt even more resentful.
If the emperor hadn't inexplicably agreed to Zhao Chen to search the Eastern Palace, would he, Li Tai, be so worried now?
If Hou Junji is discovered...
"I just told Your Majesty that Hou Junji escaped from prison. If the prince wants to get rid of the suspect of hiding prisoners, he must conduct a search."
"Your Majesty thought about it, and naturally he agreed."
"Li Tai, you won't really hide Hou Junji in the East Palace, right? Or, Hou Junji escaped from prison, was it your plan?" Zhao Chen looked over and looked at Li Tai with a smile.
Zhao Chen understood that Lao Li was still generous to him.
So he didn't want to provoke the relationship between Li Tai and Lao Li, nor did he add fuel to it.
Otherwise, just a few words would make Li Tai completely resent Lao Li.
"Of course not." Li Tai's expression turned cold.
No matter what, he would not admit that he had anything to do with Hou Junji.
Not to mention that he was not doing it to help Hou Junji escape from prison, even if he found Hou Junji later, he would have to show extreme anger and unexpected appearance.
Otherwise, how can you fool around in front of Zhao Chen?
"Hou Junji has nothing to do with this palace. Even if he appears here, he sneaked in by himself."
"If I see him, I will definitely capture him on the spot." Li Tai said coldly.
But he was disconnecting from Hou Junji.
"Your Highness, if Hou Junji knew you said this, I would be so annoyed!"
"Sir, this was found in the west wing room." Luo Tong walked over from behind, looked at Li Tai with a sarcastic look, holding a piece of green jade in the shape of a unicorn.
"This is what Your Majesty gave to him in Taiji Hall after Hou Junji returned from his expedition to Tuyuhun."
"Hou Junji has been here." Luo Tong and Zhao Chen explained.
Zhao Chen took the jade pendant and looked in front of him, but his eyebrows were frowning.
The jade pendant was found, but Hou Junji was not seen.
That guy is afraid he had escaped from the East Palace?
After being busy for so long, it's a waste of time?
When Li Tai saw Luo Tong bring Hou Junji's jade pendant, his heart was about to pop out.
However, when Luo Tong heard that Hou Junji had come, Li Tai breathed a little relieved.
Since Luo Tong just said that Hou Junji had been here, it means that they did not find Hou Junji.
As long as Hou Junji is not found, he, Li Tai, is safe.
Just a jade pendant, how can he treat him as the prince?
"Zhao Chen, it's so complicated that I haven't found anything. How do you feel in my heart?" Li Tai looked at Zhao Chen with a relaxed smile on his face.
"Go and have a look." Zhao Chen ignored Li Tai's sneer.
He now wants to know how Hou Junji escaped under the full blockade of so many people.
...
"Send more rooms to save me!"
Outside Chang'an City, Hou Junji changed his clothes. In front of him was Fang Xuanling, who had just come out of Mingde Gate.
Fang Xuanling looked at Hou Junji without any expression on his face.
"Duke Chen, I don't want to save you. If Your Majesty hadn't remembered the friendship of the past, you would have been taken by Zhao Chen today." Fang Xuanling said lightly.
"Remembering the past love?" Hou Junji sneered, looked at Fang Xuanling, and said, "Fang Xiang, you and I are not fools. If His Majesty hadn't planned to reveal Zhao Chen's identity, would he let me go?"
"Does he really think he is a benevolent king?"
"If he had been kinder, there wouldn't have been anything about Xuanwu Sect back then."
"Your Majesty also had his own difficulties in the past. Besides, you, Hou Junji, were the first to rush into the palace." Fang Xuanling frowned.
He didn't quite understand where Hou Junji was talking about this now.
"I just want to be promoted to the position, but unfortunately, in the end, nothing will be gone!" Hou Junji smiled, his face full of self-deprecating expression.
Fang Xuanling didn't want to say anything else to him, so he waved his hand and signaled Hou Junji to leave quickly.
"Fang Xiang, as your reward for saving my life, I will tell you good news." Hou Junji looked at Fang Xuanling with a smile.
Fang Xuanling frowned, but did not turn around and leave.
"Actually, the arrow from Yuchi Gong did not shoot His Highness the King of Qi to death. I saved him."
"What?" Fang Xuanling's expression changed suddenly.
After the Xuanwu Gate Incident, they were anxious to deal with the matters in the palace and had no time to deal with the bodies of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji.
When they realized it, the corpse was hit by lightning and the fire spread.
When they put out the fire, they could only vaguely identify the appearance of the corpse.
Li Yuanji was personally identified by Fang Xuanling at that time.
If it were normal, Fang Xuanling would only feel that Hou Junji was talking to him.
But now...
Chapter completed!
