Half an hour later.
The four young eunuchs went back to report to the eldest prince.
The eldest prince listened quietly, and finally said, "You two mean to say that he just stood in front of Concubine De's palace for a while and then left?"
"yes."
"Did you see him leave the palace with your own eyes?"
"Yes. I didn't meet anyone along the way, and I didn't ask anything."
"Go down!"
The four young eunuchs breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
It seems they have passed this level!
No need to die!
After the four young eunuchs left, the eldest prince raised his chin towards the dark corner of the room and asked, "Did you send anyone to follow Li Junyan?"
"Someone has been sent."
"Yeah. It would be best if we could catch him during the prison break.
If you really can't, then get some solid evidence. I want a legitimate reason to punish Li Junyan. Do you understand?"
"yes!"
A figure seemed to flash in the corner, and then disappeared completely in an instant.
The eldest prince looked at the empty corner, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Li Junyan, since you are back this time, don’t even think about leaving!
He is not the old emperor, and he will not dare to take action against Li Junyan just because he is concerned about the goddess.
Letting Li Junyan return to his fiefdom is like letting a tiger return to the mountains.
He would never give Li Junyan this opportunity!
-
After Li Junyan left the palace, he went to Lei Shou's home first.
He lived here not long ago. Although it was not prosperous at that time, it was at least clean and tidy, with many people coming and going. It was lively and warm.
But how long has it been?
Not only was the door closed, but there was also a white seal on it, dividing the inside into two places.
Li Junyan just watched from a distance and did not get close.
Although there was no one guarding the gate, there were many people watching in the dark.
As soon as he approached the yard, people would rush up from all directions, surround him, and accuse him of being an accomplice of the Thunder Beast.
Li Junyan could see this, so he naturally wouldn't be fooled.
Li Junyan took another deep look at the two big words "Lei Mansion", then turned around and left resolutely.
The people hiding in the dark looked at Li Junyan's departing back and felt strange.
"What do you think the Prince of Chen meant by this? Everyone came here, why did he just stand at the door and leave? He didn't even want to go in and take a look, didn't he want to go in and look for clues? Didn't they say that he and the Thunder Beast were like brothers? Why would he just abandon his brother like that?"
"Your words are so funny. No matter how close we are to each other as brothers, we are not real brothers.
Besides, the thunder beast will be beheaded tomorrow. Even if he goes in to take a look, what can he change?
Most people in this world are afraid of death and love life. Prince Chen is also a human being and is no exception. What's so strange about that?"
"Do you think I'm really surprised? I was just wondering, now that he's fine, what should we do next? You know the eldest prince's methods.
If we fail to accomplish our mission and the Crown Prince blames us, we won’t be able to save our heads.”
"I say you're stupid, but you're really not smart. Isn't the eldest prince smarter than you and me? I can think of these things, so how could the eldest prince not think of them?
You don't think that the eldest prince asked us to stay here just to let us capture Prince Chen, do you? You really think too highly of yourself. Anyway, I dare not think so. "
"Isn't that so? If it's not to capture Prince Chen, then why are we staying here?"
Seeing him stand up after saying this, the other person raised his hand and pressed it on his shoulder, "Why are you in such a hurry?! Be honest, otherwise if something like this happens again next time, you won't have a chance to come again."
"Could it be that there is a backup plan?"
"certainly--"
Before they could finish the word "ran", a hand suddenly appeared on the back of their necks.
The hand was extremely cold, yet very powerful. The moment it pinched their necks, the two of them were so frightened that they subconsciously screamed.
But before the scream could even come out of their throats, the two men's heads were pressed hard together.
The two of them only heard a buzzing sound, and their vision went dark, and they both fainted.
The person who beat the two men unconscious was naturally Li Junyan.
Li Junyan threw the two men to the ground, and at the same time did not forget to stab each of them.
The sharp knife cut through the clothes and pierced the skin, making a "swish" sound.
The two people who were frowning just now, at this moment, their brows relaxed and they fell to the ground weakly.
At a time like this, we must never leave anyone alive out of soft-heartedness.
Otherwise, before he could rescue the thunder beast, he would be killed himself.
Li Junyan turned over and entered the yard, and soon disappeared into the yard.
Although Lei Shou is a fourth-rank military general, his salary is actually not high and he has no extra income, so the furnishings in his house are very simple.
There were no precious flowers, plants or trees planted in the yard. Instead, the ground was hardened and turned into a martial arts training ground.
Because there was nothing there, the yard looked no different from before.
But once you enter the house, you can see the difference. The previously tidy house is now a mess, with all the furniture scattered on the floor in a disorderly manner.
Some of them were torn to pieces, as if someone was looking for something inside.
All the breakable items, such as bottles, jars, teacups, dishes, etc., were scattered all over the floor.
Just by looking at the situation in front of me, I can imagine what the situation was like at that time.
