It was Guo Huan.
Division Leader Chen cleared his throat. He did not stop Guo Huan or cause trouble for him. Strictly speaking, he had let Guardian He down.
Guardian He said, “In addition, the Eldest Prince seems to be a traitor of the Imperial Court. He was the one who told Wei Ting that my nest was destroyed last time. However, I don’t dare to believe him easily because I want to investigate clearly. This is the second reason why I faked my death.”
Division Leader Chen questioned, “Are you really not doing this for yourself?”
Guardian He swore, “My loyalty to the Sect Master can be seen by the sun and moon!”
Branch Leader Chen asked, “Then why are you here?”
Guardian He said earnestly, “Branch Leader, as long as there’s life, there’s hope. Guo Huan has already been exposed, and the Imperial Court won’t let him off. If he’s gone, you’ll be under one person and above ten thousand others. Why do you have to fall for such a small matter? Why don’t you pretend to sell Xiao Zhonghua some harmless news in exchange for some room for survival? At that time, I’ll wait for an opportunity to help you escape!”
Division Leader Chen frowned. “Isn’t this betraying the Sect Master?”
Guardian He said, “This is called infiltrating the Imperial Court. You can use a small price to exchange for the trust of the Imperial Court. When the Sect Master needs our loyalty in the future, won’t it be convenient for you to cooperate with him from the inside? Do you have to sacrifice your life for nothing to be considered loyal? Isn’t it another form of repayment for feeding the tiger with your body?”
Division Leader Chen sat back in his chair in a daze. “Let me think about it.” Fifteen minutes later, Guardian He came out of the cell.
He saw Xiao Zhonghua at the end of the corridor. “Your Highness, I’ve followed your instructions.”
Xiao Zhonghua smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely fulfill the conditions I agreed to. Jing Yi’s men will go to the White Lotus Society to save your family.”
It was unknown if Guardian He was doing this for his family or to hide his fear of death in the name of saving his family.
Of course, Xiao Zhonghua did not care. He only wanted the outcome.
When Xiao Zhonghua appeared in front of Division Leader Chen again, Division Leader Chen was clearly not as arrogant and disdainful as before.
“Have you thought it through?” Xiao Zhonghua asked.
Division Leader Chen said coldly, “I can tell you what I know, but how can I be sure that you will definitely let me go? If you kick me to the curb when I’ve outlived my usefulness, won’t I be caught off guard?”
He could threaten Guardian He without hiding it, but he still had to show some sincerity to a figure like Division Leader Chen.
Xiao Zhonghua gave him a handwritten letter. “My personal seal is stamped on it. If I violate my oath and kill you in the filture, you can ask your trusted aide to announce it to the world. I’m a prince and have to cherish my feathers. This is my sincerity for Branch Leader Chen.”
Since Division Leader Chen was colluding with the First Prince, he naturally understood Xiao Zhonghua’s situation in the royal family.
He put away the letter. “Actually, the Sect Master hasn’t entered the capital yet. I won’t tell you where the Sect Master is. I can only remind you not to enter the peach forest.”
Guo Huan fled for three days and three nights. During this process, not only did he have to avoid the pursuit of the Imperial Court, but he also had to avoid becoming food for the wild beasts in the mountains. His wounds were inflamed, and his injuries were rapidly worsening.
He had to be treated as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would lose his life.
Ahead was the peach forest.
He could not enter the peach forest.
But… the pursuers were right behind him. He gritted his teeth and entered the peach forest.
“Quick! Guo Huan is over there!”
A team 01 pursuers chasea inco me peach wrest.
Not long after, the screams of the pursuers came from the forest.
When Su MO rushed to the event location, there was only the thick smell of blood in the air.
Su MO held his sword and entered the peach forest without hesitation.
In the oil lamp-like room, the man trembled and suddenly sat up on the mattress on the floor.
“You’re awake?”
A faint man’s voice came from beside him.
He turned around and saw a thin young man sitting on a futon, drinking tea unhurriedly.
He did not sense any malice from the other party. He looked down at his clothes.
These were not his clothes.
“Your clothes were all wet. I got Deng An to change them for you.”
Ling Yun said.
He went to touch his broken arm.
“I applied medication,” Ling Yun said. “Didn’t you see a doctor back then?”
The man said nothing.
He wiped his disfigured face again and touched a jade mask.
“It’s more convenient to wear this.”
“Lalala! Lalala!”
Xiao Huts little demonic voice suddenly came from next door. He was to speak or act without sound reason… It was definitely not playing cotton. He sang excitedly as he played.
Ling Yun was already used to it and his temples stopped throbbing.
However, the man seemed to have been greatly frightened and wanted to find a place to hide.
Ling Yun said, “This is a secret room. They can’t enter.”
The man paused.
He followed the direction of the voice to the wall. There was a grid here, and he could actually see through it.
He watched in a daze.
Xiaohu was playing the zither, Dahu was playing with Su Xiaoxiao’s magnet darts, and Erhu was showing off his new Eight Trigrams Stone to Wei Xiyue.
Suddenly, Wei Xiyue seemed to have sensed something and walked over.
The man’s expression changed. He leaned back and fell to the ground.
Ling Yun took a sip of tea. “Don’t worry, they can’t see or hear you from outside.”
Wei Xiyue widened her eyes and looked into the crack.
“Sister Xi Yue, Sister Xi Yue, do you still want to see my little stone?” Erhu pulled Wei Xiyue back and did not allow his only audience to leave halfway.
The rain stopped and the four little ones were picked up by Wei Ting and Yuchi Xiu.
“They’re gone,” Ling Yun said.
The man stood up.
Ling Yun asked, “Are you leaving too?”
The man nodded slightly, as if he wanted to say thank you, but in the end, he only touched his mask.
Ling Yun took a sip of tea. “If my family becomes like this, I won’t want him to hide. I’ll want to acknowledge him.”
The man did not say anything and dragged his disfigured body out of Ling Yun’s courtyard.
The rain eased a little.
He hid in the alley.
Yuchi Xiu carried the last little toger into the carriage. “Sit tight! Lord, are you going to the Imperial Astronomy Centre?”
Wei Ting said, ‘Yes.”
The carriage left.
It was not until he could no longer hear the carriage that the man slowly pulled himself out of his emotions.
Just as he turned around, he was blocked by Wei Ting at the entrance of the alley..
