Change of Plan
The Queen paused in thought. Everyone in the room stayed silent, allowing the elegant woman to find her answer.After nearly ten minutes, Queen Yue Qi finally identified two possible places."There are two places that might fit your theory, Li Jie. First, a palace built by my husband to honor his deceased parents. The second is within this very palace," Queen Yue Qi said, taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly.Li Jie's mind worked quickly upon hearing her answer. "Your Majesty mentioned the palace because it is sacred to His Majesty, leading you to suspect he might be hidden there."The Queen nodded in agreement and provided directions to the palace in question."Very well. Since it is already late, I, Yung Yin, and Wei Zi will depart tomorrow morning. If His Majesty is truly hidden in that palace, our task will simply be to uncover the culprit—and that will be easy because His Majesty surely knows who orchestrated this abduction," Li
Change of Plan
Without their knowledge, Li Jie had once again infiltrated the grand residence. He lay flat, ensuring no one would notice him, with one ear pressed against the roof.He continued to wait for more crucial information to come from their mouths.Not long after, eight soldiers who had just returned from inspecting the rooms of Yung Yin and Li Jie at the palace were already present at Du Hao's residence."So? Did you get good results?" asked Prime Minister Tan Bo."Apologies, Prime Minister. They were both in their respective rooms," replied one of the soldiers.Prime Minister Tan Bo sighed heavily, stroking his white beard slowly. His mind wandered, full of questions about who the infiltrator could be if Li Jie and Yung Yin were each in their rooms."What is the current condition of Emperor Huang Jia, Prime Minister?" Du Hao suddenly asked.Li Jie, who was lying on the grand residence's roof, felt his heart pound, eager
Betrayal 2
The Next Morning…After bathing and dressing in his soldier’s uniform, Li Jie left his room and headed to Han Zifeng’s quarters.Coincidentally, Han Zifeng was walking in the opposite direction.“Li Jie, I need to talk to you,” Han Zifeng said.“Me too, but let’s talk tonight. I’ll come to your room. I’m going to look around for now,” Li Jie replied.Han Zifeng nodded and walked away. He knew talking too long with Li Jie could arouse suspicion.After Han Zifeng left, Li Jie continued walking, his sharp eyes scanning every potentially suspicious area.Two soldiers followed him from a distance, their eyes never leaving him.Li Jie was fully aware he was being tailed. In fact, he deliberately led them on, hoping they would eventually reveal who had ordered them to follow him.Smiling inwardly, Li Jie quickened his pace and turned a corner, disappearing from their view.The soldiers panic
Betrayal 1
Without realizing it, Li Jie was being closely watched by two pairs of sharp eyes hidden in the darkness as he entered and exited his room.“We just need to wait here. Our surveillance target isn’t him, but the young man inside that room,” one of the watchers whispered.Inside the room, Li Jie unrolled a dried parchment depicting the palace’s floor plan and spread it out on the table. Carefully, he studied the map and committed it to memory. Alongside the palace layout, there were also maps of the residences of important officials outside the palace. The young man quickly memorized all the layouts and stored them in his mind.Shortly after, he exited his room but immediately sensed a presence nearby. He swiftly returned to his room.Li Jie could have easily incapacitated the owner of that aura, but he knew he couldn’t act recklessly. Until he found Emperor Huang Jia, he wouldn’t stir up trouble.“How can someone already be
The Secret of Li Hao
The Secret of Li HaoLi Jie’s heart pounded at what the Queen of the Tong Dynasty was about to do. "What is it, Your Majesty?""Uncover your hair and show me your right ear!" Queen Yue Qi commanded as she now stood beside the young man.Li Jie had no idea what Queen Yue Qi intended, but he complied, brushing aside his hair that covered his right ear.The beautiful woman covered her mouth in shock at what she saw. "There’s no doubt about it," she whispered.Li Jie grew even more confused by Queen Yue Qi’s reaction. He had no idea what was going through the beautiful woman’s mind. "Forgive me, Your Majesty, but I don’t understand what you mean. Please explain it to me!"Queen Yue Qi leaned forward slightly and brushed aside her own hair, revealing her right ear. "Do you see this mole behind my ear?"Li Jie saw the fairly large mole and nodded. Queen Yue Qi then walked to fetch a mirror and returned to Li Jie."Now
Queen Yue Qi's Suspicion 2
Li Jie and the others were surprised to find that Wei Zi was already waiting for their arrival. They suspected that Queen Yue Qi had leaked their plan to Wei Zi.The three of them walked, following Wei Zi’s steps toward a private chamber reserved for the royal family.Before they entered the room, Wei Zi looked around carefully to ensure that no one was watching them."Come on, get in!" he urged.The four of them entered the room and firmly shut the door behind them."So, you’ve finally arrived," said Queen Yue Qi as she emerged from another door within the chamber. The beautiful woman gave them a warm smile. For a moment, her gaze lingered on Li Jie before she moved toward a chair."Our respects, Your Majesty," said Wei Zi on behalf of the others. The four of them bowed their heads in respect."Sit down.""Thank you, Your Majesty."An awkward silence briefly filled the air after they had all
