The butler staggered a bit. This unfilial son said, "It is his good fortune to be able to stand in front of the second prince. Please treat him kindly."

Li Hongtang sneered, "This prince's dog, Benwang, will definitely treat him well, but I hope you won't regret it in the future."

The butler cupped his hands and said nothing.

At this time, the prince woke up, "cough cough cough..., housekeeper, bring me some water."

The butler immediately went to pour water, but was snatched by Li Hongtang, "Father, please drink water."

King Dongling glanced at the butler, then drank the water from Li Hongtang's hand, "Have you found the person who knocked me out?"

"Let someone run away." Li Hongtang pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, "Father, it's better to call Lu Ziming back. If Lu Ziming was here, such a thing would definitely not happen."

"Shut up!" King Dongling snorted, don't think he doesn't know what Li Hongtang wants, but with his ability, he is simply not qualified for the position of King Dongling, and the people will not obey him.

Li Hongtang looked at King Dongling aggrievedly, "Father, what did I do wrong again?"

"Go down, I want to rest for a while." King Dongling waved his hand, he didn't want to see this second son who was bent on fighting for power, and he was heartbroken.

Li Hongtang flicked his sleeves and left the room. When he left, he glared at the housekeeper. If you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that I will skin your son.

The butler just pretended he didn't see anything.

As soon as Li Hongtang left, King Dongling's expression darkened instantly, "Who hit me?"

The butler said honestly, "I don't know him, but his martial arts skills are so high that all of us in the palace failed to catch up, and even made a big fuss in the palace, causing many servant girls in the palace to run away."

"The servant girl ran away?" King Dongling didn't expect so many people in the palace to want to leave, "Is there anything else?"

The butler shook his head, "Not anymore."

"What happened to my sons?" King Dongling showed a bit of sentimentality. The eldest son was gone, and all of them died. Could it be his turn.

At this time, Li Hongjue walked in, "Father, I heard that you were attacked, did you catch anyone?"

Li Hongjue is the ninth prince of Dongling King. He was away from home since he was a child, and he rarely returned to the smoky palace. This time Li Hongjin died for no apparent reason, and Dongling King called him back.

"You still know you're looking at me?" King Dongling choked angrily.

Li Hongjue followed the good example, "Father, you know that I am not used to living in the palace. I live a little far away from the palace, and I got the news late. Next time, I will definitely come and see my father."

King Tangling was so angry that he said, "Don't come next time."

Li Hongjue said in twos and twos, "Father, let's not talk about this, has anyone caught it? If not, I will immediately send someone to find out the news, and I must bring him back."

King Tangling waved his hand, "Get lost!"

"Hey, father, then I'll get out." Li Hongjue left King Dongling's room without hesitation.

The King of Dongling was so angry that he coughed loudly, "Housekeeper, look, what has become of this undisciplined child, and what will happen if it continues like this."

The butler persuaded, "My lord, the Ninth Prince has grown up, so don't worry too much."

The King of Dongling waved his hand, not to mention Li Hongjue, "I suspect that the other party is coming for the dungeon. You must send people to strengthen the guards of the dungeon. You must not allow people to take away the people inside."

"Yes, my lord." The butler cupped his hands, left King Dongling's room, and immediately went to make arrangements.

King Dongling pinched the center of his eyebrows, he couldn't be quiet for a moment.

...

In the morning, Shang Zixing found Chu Tang, "What should we do next?"

Chu Tang came downstairs, "Eat breakfast first, and we'll talk after we eat."

"Aren't you worried at all?" Shang Zixing was very anxious, Jiang Zhaoyong was kind to him, and he wanted to rescue him immediately.

"What are you worried about? Don't you think you can save people if you are hungry?" Chu Tang sat on the stool and asked the waiter for two baskets of steamed stuffed buns, four bowls of soy milk, and four fried poached eggs.

After ordering, the siblings came out, and they came to Chu Tang. The elder sister said, "I'm sorry, my lord, we should get up earlier."

Chu Tang didn't mind, "You guys go home after dinner later, I don't need someone to wait on me, and what I said yesterday was just a stopgap measure."

The two were startled, and knelt down in front of Chu Tang. The younger brother said, "Young Master, we are wrong today. We got up late. Don't drive us away."

"I'm not driving you away, but I really don't need it." Chu Tang helped the two of them up, "Don't just kneel, it's not good."

"We all listen to the young master, the young master..." the two said.

"Just now you said to listen to me, and you stopped listening after a while?" Chu Tang asked back.

The two siblings lowered their heads, not knowing how to answer.

The guy brought up the breakfast, "Please take your time, if you need anything else, you can say hello again."

Chu Tang nodded to the buddy, then took the chopsticks and started to eat.

Shang Zixing also ate with a pair of chopsticks. The breakfast was delicious, but he was in a bad mood and felt a bit distasteful.

Chu Tang glanced at Shang Zixing, "Do you think you can save Jiang Zhaoyong with your appearance?"

Shang Zixing lowered his head and said nothing, he was really losing his senses, "Then tonight..."

Chu Tang gave him a look and stopped the words behind him, be careful that the walls have ears.

Shang Zixing finally calmed down and had breakfast.

"Huh? Why did you come to Shucheng?" A familiar voice rang in his ear, and Chu Tang was not happy for a while, how could he still meet here?

Li Hongjue came over and sat beside Chu Tang while talking, and said with a smile, "Long time no see."

"Not long, just over half a month." Chu Tang glanced at Li Hongjue, "Why are you here?"

"My father called me back." Li Hongjue called the waiter over and ordered the same breakfast as Chu Tang, "Hurry up, don't delay my business."

"It will be ready soon." The man nodded and bowed, and quickly responded.

After eating for a while, Chu Tang said, "Aren't you out of touch with your father? What did he call you back for?"

"I'm afraid I'll die outside." Li Hongjue said indifferently, as if he was talking about someone else.

Shang Zixing looked up at the two of them, what was the relationship, they seemed very close and familiar?

"Do you have a bad relationship with your father?" Chu Tang asked, seeing the other party's reluctant attitude.

Li Hongjue said back, "If it's good, can I go outside to ask for a living? Well, let's not talk about him, let's talk about you, why are you in Shucheng?"

"I'm here to do something, I told you before." Chu Tang said unhurriedly.

"Do you need my help? I still have some people here?" Li Hongjue said very generously.

"No, I can handle it myself, you take care of yourself." Chu Tang refused, he didn't want to get too involved with Li Hongjue, after all he would deal with the Dongling Palace in the future.
