Chapter 389 East Palace Dungeon

After passing through the corridor, entering an ordinary door, a small wing room appeared in front of me. It was cleaned very clean and the basic decorations were all complete. Even if you need to live in someone now, there was no problem at all. Yao Kui walked in front with a wind light, Li Jun was behind, entered the wing room, and then looked into the inner room.

Yao Kui stopped for a moment. When Li Jun walked in front of him, he held the wind lamp and waited diligently. Li Jun put his clothes in his arms and looked closely among the neatly arranged bluestone bricks, and immediately found the slightly different pattern.

Yao Kui illuminated the wind lamp down again, Li Jun grabbed the corners of the bluestone bricks and exerted a little force. The entire bluestone brick and four surrounding blocks were lifted up together.

A staircase suddenly appeared in front of him. It was obviously a secret passage. There was a faint candlelight below the staircase. I don’t know where it leads.

It is really not easy to break through here. Although this room is ordinary, you can see it at a glance, and there is no cover around it. In fact, its guards are hidden on the second floor of the room, from where they are concentrating on monitoring everything outside the door.

They were all guards carefully selected by Li Jun. They were loyal and reliable, and firm in will. They were arranged into five groups, divided into different time periods, and were responsible for the guards of the dungeon.

In order to ensure their secrecy, the small windows on the second floor were transformed very small. The shadowy screens on the outside were only guards who could clearly see the situation outside the window. Outsiders could hardly find them.

Tonight, Li Jun arrived, and everyone was even more energetic. Even the guards who were not on duty came out to deal with it, for fear of problems.

In the room, Li Jun and Yao Kui walked down the stairs one after another, passed a long corridor, and a wide area appeared in front of him. Many prisons were established on both sides of the open area. One row was already full of people, and the other row was still empty.

There are not many spies in the East Palace, which is something that deserves Li Jun's gratitude.

In fact, this secret passage is not his work.

This secret passage had existed long before he moved into the East Palace of Chang'an. The person who told him about this news was General Zuo Yulin Li Duozuo.

At that time, everyone was still fighting on the battlefield of Dafeichuan. It was rare to have free time. When talking about the many past events when Li Xian ascended the throne, he casually mentioned that there was a secret passage in the East Palace, which was built by Li Xian when he was still the prince.

At that time, the queen treated her children harshly and cruelly, which made Li Xianmi, the crown prince, uneasy and confused all day long and had no energy.

Later, under the guidance of Zhang Jianzhi, Li Xian dug an authentic tunnel in the dark corner of the East Palace, leading directly to the outer city, which is Guangzhaifang where Yao Kui now lives.

When Li Xian was still the crown prince, the person living here was the Shizhong Huan Yanfan. In other words, in order to save his life, Li Xian discovered this tunnel in order to escape successfully when the queen was about to endanger his life.

Now, Li Jun is in this secret passage and feels full of emotion. Thinking of the disconnectedness of Li Xian and Zhang Jianzhi, a group of old ministers, I can't help but feel sad.

Fortunately, with his own protection, these people are safe for the time being. He looked back at Yao Kui. This person still looked indifferent now, and it was not much different from when he first met him. He really hoped that his relationship with Yao Kui would always be so harmonious.

Although he knew that seeking emotional comfort at Tian’s family was the most ridiculous thing, he still couldn’t help but think so.

Perhaps, in the end, he and these important officials who supported him would go the same path in the end, but he still hoped that the later this day would be, the better.

From this point of view, this secret passage is not very secret. At least in this court, the meritorious groups such as Zhang Jianzhi and Emperor Li Xian knew it very well.

However, when Li Jun and Li Xian were not tearing each other apart, this secret passage and this small dark room were still safe.

Nowadays, the servants and maids who were sent by Wu Sansi to the East Palace for secret missions are all detained here. Li Jun originally wanted to isolate them all to prevent them from affecting each other, but when they think about it, they knew each other. Even if they were isolated from vision and hearing, as long as they heard the voices of their words, they would quickly realize that their accomplices had been arrested. In this way, isolation would have no effect and would give up.

When several people saw Li Jun's figure, they reacted differently. Some were crawling and wailing, shouting for help, some were majestic and unyielding, and they vowed to be loyal to Wu Sansi.

Someone even cursed Li Jun and was already crazy.

Li Jun waved his hand and pretended that he hadn't seen or heard. These people couldn't live in the end, it was just a matter of time, so why should he be influenced by them?

Yao Kui walked behind and heard these dirty words. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and shouted a few words. Then they were taken care of by the guards to draw their swords towards each other. Under the dim candlelight, the Modao shone with a cold light. When they saw this thing, they immediately closed their mouths.

They had seen this thing with their own eyes. On the third day after they were locked up, a servant was discovered by the guards because he tried to escape and wiped his neck on the spot.

They looked up at Li Jun with vigilance and fear, but who would have thought that the reckless and brainless prince who laughed all day long had such a vicious side.

Since entering the dungeon, Li Jun has never said a word. When he decided to imprison these spies, when he decided to step into the dungeon again, he knew that he was no longer the same person.

His eyes were wandering around the two little maids, and he picked the one who was even smaller and raised his hand to let the guards take it out.

The little maid was so scared that she fainted when she saw Li Jun taking her out. He didn't agree. It would be fine if she fainted, and she would suffer less pain later.

He suddenly remembered that he didn't even know the name of the girl.

"What's the name of this little lady?" he asked with a glance.

The guard behind him replied: "Rain."

On the other hand, Wu Yanxiu, Duke of Huan, who had not been asleep all night, did not receive a reply from Kutao.

This was simply unbelievable in the past. Kutao loved him and never agreed to all his requests.

What's going on this time?

Could it be that she was really subdued by the prince?

Have you changed your mind and no longer used it for him?

He didn't believe that he had been with Kutao for two years. In the past two years, he had never seen Kutao disobey him. He had always been wrapped around him like a dodder, and he wanted to stay together every moment.

How could such a woman who is addicted to love bewitched by the prince? Or would women eventually be greedy for power and abandon him as a duke when they see the more powerful prince. If this is the case, even if he falls into her hands today, she will not let her live a better life in the future.

As time passed by bit by bit, the resentment in his heart became more and more intense, and at the same time, a wave of fear also surged into his heart.
