Chapter 261 Leaving the Palace with Concubine De

"Qianqian!"

Although Li Junyan didn't quite understand what Sang Jueqian was saying, he believed in Sang Jueqian unconditionally.

Therefore, looking at the door in front of him, Li Junyan walked in without any hesitation.

When I walked in, what I was thinking about was indeed the Temple of the Goddess in the capital.

Li Junyan clearly saw that the surrounding environment had changed.

It was as if he had crossed time and space with this one step, and walked directly from the guest room of the inn into the Temple of the Goddess in the capital.

Li Junyan subconsciously turned around and looked behind him, and saw that the door was still behind him.

The next moment, Sang Jueqian's hand appeared and closed the door.

These magical things are not just seen with your own eyes, but also experienced firsthand.

But even so, Li Junyan was still very surprised.

He used to think that he had experienced enough misfortunes, but now it seems that it is far from enough.

In the future, perhaps there will be more magical things waiting for him.

It was late at night, and the lights in the Goddess Temple were bright, but there was no one there.

Li Junyan quietly walked to the window, opened it a crack and looked out, only to see several guards standing in the yard.

This must have been sent by the emperor.

The emperor treats the Temple of the Goddess as his own alone!

People were posted to guard the temple day and night to prevent anyone from coming in to kneel and beg.

This is because he is afraid that others will steal the goddess' attention!

The corners of Li Junyan's mouth slowly curled up, revealing a smile full of sarcasm.

Although there were guards guarding the yard, this did not pose a problem for Li Junyan. He left the Goddess Temple quietly.

The Temple of the Goddess is close to the imperial city, and there is martial law around the imperial city. At night, it is impossible for ordinary people to come here, so there is no need to worry about bumping into anyone.

There are of course many guards near the imperial city and inside the palace.

But Li Junyan grew up in the palace and lived there for so many years, so he knew it very well.

Li Junyan also knew the distribution of the guards and the shift changing times very clearly.

Although the journey was not smooth sailing, there was nothing that could not be dealt with.

Less than half an hour later, Li Junyan successfully arrived at Concubine De's palace.

The last time Li Junyan came here, Sang Jueqian also took a close look at the palace where Concubine De lived. It was magnificent, with groups of maids and eunuchs.

The entire palace was bustling with people coming and going. Although there was no extra sound, one could see the palace servants busying around, making it very lively.

But this time, the palace was surrounded by a group of guards with swords, and there was not a single extra eunuch or maid inside.

The palace is still the same palace, and even the various flowers and plants in the courtyard are still exactly the same, but the feeling it gives people is much more desolate.

While Sang Jueqian was still staring at the environment, Li Junyan had already arrived at the door of Concubine De's bedroom and knocked gently.

The action seemed very casual, but just by listening to the sound and intervals of the knocking, you could tell that it was definitely not a random knock, but some kind of secret code.

The facts were just as Sang Jue had imagined.

No one spoke in the bedroom, only the sound of hurried footsteps approaching the door.

The next moment, the heavy door was opened silently from the inside.

The person who opened the door was none other than Aunt Jin.

Aunt Jin looked at the person at the door cautiously, but before she could see clearly, she heard Li Junyan's voice.

"Aunt, it's me."

As soon as Li Junyan said this, Aunt Jin's face changed drastically, and she quickly opened the door wider, "Your Highness! Why are you back? Come in!"

Li Junyan slipped into the house and Aunt Jin quickly closed the door again.

"Your Highness, didn't the Emperor tell you to return to your fiefdom? Why are you back again? If the Emperor finds out, he'll punish you!"

Inside the bedroom, Concubine De's tired and puzzled voice came out, "Aunt Jin, who is it?"

Aunt Jin quickened her pace and stopped at the door of the inner hall. She lowered her voice and said, "Your Highness, the prince has returned."

"What?"

Concubine De was shocked.

Then came the sound of hurried footsteps.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the door opened and Concubine De walked out.

When she saw Li Junyan, Concubine De was surprised, happy, and angry. Her expression kept changing, and her eyes quickly turned red. She looked at Li Junyan with tears in her eyes, "Lezhi, why are you back?"

Li Junyan stepped forward and said, "Mother Consort De, I heard that you were under house arrest. I was worried about you, so I came back to see you."

Concubine De choked for a moment, and tears flashed in her eyes.

But it only lasted a moment.

Soon, Defei looked at Li Junyan angrily, "Even if you are really worried about me, you can't do such a thing! If the news of your return is known to the emperor, wouldn't it give him a reason and an excuse to punish you?

"Before anyone notices you, leave now! Hurry!"

Li Junyan stood still, "But Concubine De, what if the emperor attacks you? I can't abandon you. You and Aunt Jin pack your things, and I will take you away."

De Fei was a little moved, but she quickly suppressed the thought that had just emerged, "You child, what nonsense are you talking about! How could I possibly go with you! It's enough that you have this intention."

Aunt Jin was also very touched, but she also agreed with what Concubine De said.

Both of them are weak women and don't know martial arts.

No matter how high Li Junyan's martial arts skills were, it was not an easy task to take the two of them away from the palace.
