The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 482 Acquaintances
Changsun Ji glanced at Feng Huo, nodded, and without further ado, got into the hole first, and after a period of groping in the dark, Changsun Ji climbed out to the ground again.

Changsun Ji looked around the exit, surrounded by plants, which completely blocked the exit. If they didn't know there was a hole here, others would never have guessed that there was a hole leading to the outside world.

Soldiers came out one by one from the entrance of the cave. Changsun Ji asked them to stand still, turned around and went out of the yard, and checked the surrounding situation. Changsun Ji had already made up his mind that this was a deserted yard. Knowing how many years it has been abandoned, Changsun Ji doesn't care about it. There are many courtyards in the palace that are abandoned, and these are usually the residences of concubines who have fallen out of favor.

There was no one around, Changsun Ji led the soldiers out of the courtyard, because they were all wearing the clothes of the palace guards, so even if they walked in the palace openly, they were not afraid of being discovered.

Changsun Ji led them to walk in front of them, but not long after leaving the courtyard, Changsun Ji saw an acquaintance, who was the eunuch who had been delivering edicts for the prince before.

Changsun Ji didn't pretend to be invisible. On the contrary, when he saw it, Changsun Ji greeted him from a distance. Sometimes, the more nervous he was, the more he couldn't show his feet.

The eunuch naturally also saw Changsun Ji, and seeing that Changsun Ji took the initiative to greet him, he grinned and walked towards Changsun Ji.

Changsun Ji looked at the eunuch, and saw that there were two young eunuchs following him, and the little eunuch was still holding a lunch box, as if he was going to deliver food to someone.

"It turned out to be General Changsun. I said that I heard magpies chirping early in the morning. So that was the reason."

Changsun Ji chuckled and asked, "Eunuch, what are you doing here?"

"What else can I do? It's just some errand work. This isn't just coming out of the imperial dining room to deliver some pastries to the empress."

Changsun Ji smiled and did not continue to ask. The prince is dead. The eunuch was originally serving the prince. Now he seems to have become a concubine according to his words. But he didn't bother to ask if the other party didn't say anything. Not much use.

"What is General Changsun doing here?" The eunuch looked at the soldiers behind Changsun Ji and asked with some doubts.

"It's nothing, just to transport some things." Changsun Ji said vaguely.

The eunuch is from the palace, so he naturally understands that it is better not to know some things.So seeing that Changsun Ji didn't say much, he didn't ask too much, after all, his asking before was just a form of greeting.

"I saw General Shidi go there with a small group of soldiers just now, and he also said to move something. Is the general also going to help?"

After saying hello, Changsun Ji was about to leave when he heard the eunuch say something casually.Changsun Ji's face changed slightly, he raised his head and stared at the eunuch, concealed the surprise on his face, and asked in a slightly curious tone: "Elder-in-law, what did you say just now, General Shi Shi also entered the palace?" gone?"

"Of course he entered the palace, otherwise I wouldn't have seen him. Just now, didn't the general go to help him?" The eunuch, the eldest grandson Ji, asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Oh, haha. My father-in-law was wrong. But it's about the same. I didn't help him move things, but he helped me move things. It's just that I didn't find him before entering the palace. I thought he was putting pigeons there, but I didn't expect it to be better than me. I have already entered the palace." Changsun Ji knew that the other party had noticed the surprise on his face just now, so he could only explain with a smile.

The eunuch smiled without any doubts, the two simply said goodbye and separated.

Changsun Ji lowered his head, and while leading the soldiers towards the palace, he was thinking about what the Shidi gorilla entered the palace for.

He listened to what the eunuch said just now, and that gorilla still had soldiers with him.If the prince is still alive, Changsun Ji is not worried, but now that the prince is dead, and the opponent is still leading troops to attack, this is worth thinking about in the third grade of Zhangu. at this time.

Frowning, thinking that he had already reached the entrance of the palace hall, Changsun Ji shook his head, throwing away the messy thoughts inside.Although he didn't want to understand why Shidi Gorilla brought troops into the palace, it didn't affect the vigilance in his heart.

Glancing at the soldiers behind him, Changsun Ji gave some instructions in a low voice, and then led half of the soldiers into the hall, while the other half turned and left.

As soon as he entered the hall, Changsun Ji saw two guards standing guard at the door.

Before the prince's death, the palace guards belonged to the prince, but since the prince's death, he really couldn't figure out which side the prince was on.

Although he knew that at this time, if he could get the help of Ouchi's guards, the plan would have been half successful, but despite this, Changsun Ji still did not contact the person in charge of Ouchi in private. It was too important, and it had to be close, and he couldn't guarantee the loyalty of the big inner guards, so he would rather take some risks than reveal the news.

However, not being in contact with the leader of the Ouchi guards does not mean that they are not in contact with all the Ouchi guards. The people in the Ouchi guards are not monolithic. Let me ask, that person in the royal family will not stuff people into it. Become blind and deaf in the palace.

This is also the reason why Changsun Ji dared to walk in, not afraid of the two guards seeing him, because the two guards at the palace gate had already been bought in advance.

If it was to protect the emperor before, he didn't know how many guards there were, but now that the emperor is dead, just a corpse can no longer attract other people's attention. After all, the power that was originally concentrated on this corpse has been divided into two pieces. The third prince and the seventh prince are on the body.

Immediately afterwards, both the ministers and the guards and eunuchs in the palace also focused their attention on the two princes. Now what they are guarding here has changed from a piece of sweet pastry that everyone is vying for to an unpopular place. Pay attention to the corners.

Changsun Ji led the soldiers in. As soon as he entered, he saw the coffin in the center of the hall and the cushions placed in front for people to worship and watch the night. The burning incense in the incense burner in front of the coffin gave off a long-lasting smell. .

Changsun Ji looked around and found that there were no screens or other blocking things in the hall, and everything was basically clear at a glance, and there was no way to hide people.

Changsun Ji took a few steps towards the back, only to find that there was a one-meter-wide corridor at the back of the lobby, which could allow people to hide in it.

Although the secrecy is not so good, as long as someone walks to the back, they can see it at a glance, but it is better than nothing, at least it will not be seen at a glance.
