I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

The prince looked up at Zhang Lai, unsure whether what he said was true or false.

It is very possible that a person who sells out his master for fame and fortune might make up some lies to deceive himself in order to survive.

Noticing the way he looked at him, Zhang Lai reacted instantly and realized that he was full of doubts about him, which was why he reacted like that.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lai spoke earnestly.

"Your Highness, everything I said is true. I would never make up such a thing. This is a matter of life and death. In order to survive, I would never make it up!"

Seeing how confident he was, the prince pondered for a moment and felt that there was some truth in what he said.

But he didn't believe what Zhang Lai said and was still thinking about it.

Soon, a good idea came to my mind.

"Since you have discovered Wang Hu's existence, then you should go to your uncle's place again and find out what is going on. You must find out!"

After hearing this, Zhang Lai was a little dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After hesitating for a moment, she slowly spoke.

"Your Highness, this matter is not that easy. The prince is a cautious person. If I go there rashly, I am afraid he will be suspicious of me. Then I will not only have no way of knowing Wang Hu's whereabouts, but my life will also be in danger!"

The prince looked at him coldly with a firm attitude.

"What to say, you figure it out yourself, this is not something I need to worry about."

"I won't say it again. Cut your tongue or go to your uncle to get the news. You can choose one!"

Things have come to this point, Zhang Lai knew he had no choice, and had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Okay, then I'll go!"

Without further ado, the prince let him go.

After Zhang Lai left, a great master who was lurking beside the prince came out. His name was Wang Mang. He had always been lurking in the dark and had never appeared.

Apart from the prince, no one else knew of his existence.

"Your Highness, this man is so scheming that he cannot be kept. He might go to the uncle of the emperor and pretend to obey him but secretly say other things. He is a disaster!"

The prince was not worried about this and had a confident smile on his face.

"Don't worry, things have come to this point, he knows exactly what to do, and he will never rashly do anything stupid again!"

In fact, the prince can continue to disguise himself in front of Zhang Lai so that he cannot see his true thoughts.

Exposing it now is actually a hint, telling Zhang Lai that I am watching your every move, so don't pretend anymore.

Seeing him say this, Wang Mang didn't say anything more.

After Zhang Lai came out, he was still thinking about how to start the conversation.

After thinking for a while, he decided to go to the prince's uncle as soon as possible, and sneaked over at night.

When the prince saw Zhang coming, he was not surprised, it was also expected.

After seeing him, the prince drank his tea slowly and spoke slowly.

"You're here at this hour, but what's the emergency?"

Zha Zhanglai looked very anxious and spoke.

"That Ying'er is really scheming too much. I was supposed to shield the prince from the arrows, but I didn't expect her to run out and ruin our chances. She's so young, how could she be so scheming?"

Seeing his discontent, the uncle spoke up. "I didn't expect this to happen. I didn't expect her to stand up for me. This is beyond my expectation!"

"But it doesn't matter. You two are my people. No matter which of you succeeds, we are all the same. There is nothing to worry about. What do you think?"

Zhang Lai deliberately showed an unconvinced expression, seemingly dissatisfied, but in fact he was just pretending.

After seeing his reaction, the prince spoke again.

"Don't worry, the benefits I promised you will definitely not be missed. I will definitely satisfy you. You just need to follow my plan."

"It's getting late. I'm going to rest first. You don't have to leave in a hurry. This Snow Peak Green Tea is top-grade tea. Please enjoy it slowly."

After saying this, the prince stood up and went out.

He didn't care about Zhang Lai at all. He thought he was just a chess piece, so naturally he wouldn't pay too much attention to him.

Zhang Lai also understood this, but he was not angry.

After seeing the prince's uncle leave, he also began to act stealthily.

Taking advantage of this gap, Zhang Lai hurriedly slipped out and followed the path he took last time, all the way to a villa next to it.

But the door was locked and he had no way to get in.

In desperation, Zhang Lai could only climb up the tree next to him and then successfully enter the yard.

After entering, Zhang Lai first looked around, and after making sure that there was no one here, he slowly walked out of the house where the light was still on.

Before he could get close, he heard a sound coming from inside the house.

"I'm trying hard now, but it's no use at all. Is it because the method I'm practicing is wrong? How is this possible?"

No one answered him, he seemed to be talking to himself.

Zhang Lai was a little confused, so he slowly leaned his head out and finally saw the other person's appearance clearly through the open window.

It is indeed Wang Hu!
Zhang Lai was not surprised when he saw him, but his current appearance was indeed a bit scary.

It is puzzling that a person who used to be by the prince's side has become like this.

At this moment, Wang Hu noticed that someone was staring at him. He grabbed with his hand, and Zhang Lai felt a huge suction force that sucked him in through the window and fell heavily to the ground.

When Wang Hu saw the face of the person in front of him, he was shocked.

"It's you!"

Zhang Lai nodded and hurried to explain.

"You suddenly disappeared before. Although many people said you were dead, I didn't believe it and kept looking for you. I didn't expect you to be here. What happened?"

Faced with the question, Wang Hu did not answer, but said in a cold voice.

"This is my own business, you don't need to know, but I warn you, you can't tell anyone about my coming here, otherwise, I guarantee you will die!"

Zhang Lai nodded quickly, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked concerned.

"I know. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. But what happened to you? Why are you here?"

Wang Hu did not answer, but looked at him in confusion and asked back.

"Aren't you also here with the prince? I remember that you are loyal to the prince, so why are you here?" (End of this chapter)
