The Third Prince's Mansion.
Since the third prince failed to seize the throne, the third prince dismissed many of his retainers, and the huge government office no longer had the bustle and prosperity of the past.
However, there are still a small number of disciples who have not left and still choose to be loyal to the third prince.
Huo Lao is one of them.
Mr. Huo is one of the disciples who has followed the third prince for the longest time.
Before the third prince gained power, Mr. Huo followed the third prince. It is said that there were clues about Mr. Huo in the poisoning of the eldest prince and the second prince.
Following him all the year round, Mr. Huo has a very high status in the heart of the third prince, which is far beyond the comparison of other disciples.
The third prince also has great trust in Mr. Huo. Not only is he a top staff member, but when the third prince is not in the government office, Mr. Huo basically has the final say on all matters inside and outside the government office.
"Hello, Mr. Huo."
"I've met Mr. Huo."
Today, Mr. Huo walked through the corridor of the Third Prince's Mansion. Along the way, servants and servants bowed and saluted.
Although he tried his best to appear calm and calm, his pace involuntarily quickened, showing that he was still worried.
Not long after.
He came to a servant's courtyard in the Third Prince's Mansion, which was filled with debris.
He knocked on the door gently, and a vigilant voice came from inside.
"who?"
"I."
After hearing Mr. Huo's answer, the door opened and an eye was exposed. After sizing up Mr. Huo outside the door, he walked out with confidence.
"Mr. Huo, something big happened."
As soon as Mr. Huo walked into the house, the warrior dressed as a servant said to Mr. Huo with lingering fear.
"whats the matter?"
Mr. Huo frowned and said in a gloomy tone.
This servant dressed as a servant is not a warrior in the third prince's office, but a waiter from a restaurant in Mingyuefang.
He also has another identity, that is, the dark son of Jiuyou Demon Palace.
The secret agent of Mingyuefang Restaurant is not in contact with Huo Laoben.
Logically speaking, he should not come to Mr. Huo directly, but should report to other warriors.
But this person directly passed over the other warriors and came to find Huo Lao. It was obvious that things were out of control.
"Mr. Huo, my subordinates had no choice but to find Mr. Huo."
"My subordinate's top line has been captured by the Zhaoxing Division, and I cannot get in touch with other people."
This person first apologized.
Mr. Huo scolded with a displeased face: "Don't talk nonsense, talk about business."
"Yes." The servant hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Just now... Princess Li Guxian appeared in Mingyuefang with Lord Langhou."
Mr. Huo frowned and asked, "What is this? Princess Li Guxian and Lord Lang are old acquaintances. They travel together. Is there anything unexpected?"
The servant said: "Mr. Huo doesn't know something. When we were making the plan, Princess Li Guxian once said... If one day he appears in Mingyuefang for no reason, it means that the plan is out of control. Let us proceed with caution. .”
"The appearance of Princess Li Guxian in Mingyuefang this time has obviously explained everything."
"And the most important thing is... Princess Li Guxian came with Lord Lang."
"I suspect..." The servant paused and continued: "I suspect that Lord Lang has completely controlled Princess Li Guxian, and Princess Li Guxian showed up in Mingyuefang to inform us of the news."
When Mr. Huo heard this, his eyes couldn't help but shrink violently, and he gritted his teeth, with a sharp look in his eyes.
"You're saying... I'm afraid the royal family has already learned about our plan?"
"How did they find out?"
Mr. Huo asked gloomily.
The servant said: "Mr. Huo, do you still remember that the Imperial Capital Branch was uprooted by the Zhaoxing Division some time ago?"
"I suspect that someone in the sub-helm leaked the secret."
"Furthermore, the news that Chu State announced to the outside world that the Nine Nether Demonic Palace is about to resurrect some time ago also came from the mouth of the sub-ruler!"
The Nine Nether Demon Palace is located in the imperial capital of the Chu Kingdom and has separate rudders.
The Zhaoxing Division had already investigated this matter clearly, but they did not act rashly against them.
Until some time ago, Lin Bai suggested to Emperor Chu that he should fabricate reasons to expose the conspiracy of Jiuyou Demon Palace and the Northern Territory.
Emperor Chu then secretly ordered the Zhaoxing Division to take over the branch of Jiuyou Demon Palace in the imperial capital overnight, thereby creating various evidences.
The servant hurriedly said: "Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze are both in Mr. Huo's hands, so at this moment, I think Mr. Langhou is coming for Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze, so I came to remind Mr. Huo."
"I understand." Mr. Huo nodded and said immediately, "I will immediately arrange to send Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze away."
"follow me."
Mr. Huo took a deep breath and walked into this small room.
When he came to the wall, he didn't stop and stepped straight out.
Unexpectedly...his step did not hit the wall, but passed through it.
This unattractive earthen wall is actually an illusion maintained by a magic circle.
After crossing the earth wall illusion, there is a stone staircase leading deep into the ground. When you reach the end, you can see an extremely secretive underground prison.
Inside the iron fence made of unknown divine iron, two warriors were watching Mr. Huo coming coldly.
These two people were clearly Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze.
"Look, the big shots from the Nine Nether Demon Palace are here to see us again."
When Lu Qingjun saw Mr. Huo, he sneered at the corner of his mouth.
Yi Heze's expression was also extremely calm, and he said in a cold voice: "I would like to know... how will you die if your identity is exposed?"
Although Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze were both beaten into dragon-suppressing nails, they did not curse like Meng Qinxian, but they were not as gloomy and calm as Nie Shang.
On the contrary, he was extremely relaxed, with a mocking sneer on his lips from time to time.
"Two saints, the time has come."
Faced with the two men's sarcasm, Mr. Huo didn't look good and just said something coldly.
Lu Qingjun and Yi Heze looked at each other, and the sneers on their lips did not dissipate, but grew stronger.
"It seems that the Nine Nether Demon Palace is planning to attack us?"
Lu Qingjun asked with a smile.
"Are you going to kill us?"
Yi Heze also smiled.
Mr. Huo was a little disturbed by these two people. He frowned and said: "You are indeed the saint son of Qi Jue City and Dingtian Sword Sect. The two saint sons are so calm and calm even when their death is imminent."
"I admire you."
Lu Qingjun chuckled and said, "Then what else should we do? Kneel down and beg you?"
Yi Heze said, "Even if I kneel down and beg you, will you let us go?"
Mr. Huo raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You haven't even knelt down to try, how do you know I won't let you go?"
"Hahaha." Yi Heze laughed loudly and said to Lu Qingjun: "Brother Lu, did you hear it? This old bastard is actually very excited. He really thought we would kneel down and beg him."
Lu Qingjun smiled disdainfully and said: "A group of rats hiding in the stinking water of the sewer are worthy of being so arrogant?"
Being teased by the two men again, the muscles in the corners of Huo Lao's eyes began to twitch, and a violent aura emerged from his body.
