Chapter 497: The Price of Betraying Him
The day is dawning.
As soon as Zhao Jun got off the morning court, he immediately walked towards the Luoxue Pavilion, and his footsteps were in a hurry along the way, and the eunuch could barely keep up with his footsteps.
When I arrived at Luoxue Pavilion, the courtyard was full of kneeling people, but Su Manxue was the only one who couldn't see it.
He suppressed his anger and asked dissatisfiedly, "Where is she?" There was a hint of anger in his tone.
The eunuch was taken aback, knowing that Zhao Jun was really angry, it seemed that in his heart, Su Manxue was indeed very important, otherwise Zhao Jun's face would not have become so gloomy because of her disappearance.
"The slaves and maids don't know, but when they got up, there was no trace of Niangniang, and the bed had been cold for a long time, and they had already left the palace in the middle of the night when they wanted to come to Niangniang."
The palace maid said tremblingly, as soon as they woke up, they found that Su Manxue had disappeared, and they were preparing to search for it inside and out, no matter what means they used, they had to find out Su Manxue.
But they didn't expect Zhao Jun to come so quickly, so they didn't have time to find Su Manxue's whereabouts, so they were caught by Zhao Jun.
"As the palace maids and guards of the night vigil, you two don't even know that your master disappeared in the middle of the night, what's the use of me keeping you?"
He said almost through gritted teeth, his forehead was bruised, and he looked extremely angry, making the eunuch quickly kneel down.
"The emperor also asks for anger, maybe Niangniang is just walking around in this palace, maybe Niangniang will come back after a while, why don't you wait for the time being, don't hurt yourself for this little thing."
The eunuch said resignedly, his words not only did not relieve Zhao Jun's anger, but made Zhao Jun even more angry, just ask who would go out in the middle of the night to go around.
Obviously, Su Manxue escaped, but to Zhao Jun's surprise, Su Manxue didn't take anything with her, and the furnishings in the house were still exactly the same as when she left in the middle of the night.
Even if Su Manxue wanted to escape, it was impossible not to take anything with him, this matter was a little strange, he frowned, and asked the chief of Jinyi Wei beside him to find out what was going on.
"You go to investigate this matter, the Jedi will find her out to me, I want to see the corpse when I die, and I want to see people when I live, I don't believe that a big living person can disappear in this palace for no reason?"
Zhao Jun said contemptuously, he now wants to know whether Su Manxue escaped or if something really happened, but the latter possibility is extremely small.
Su Manxue is the only heroine in this palace, except for Ji Rushuang, who else dares to take her?
Zhao Jun felt that she was very likely to have escaped, and as for the fact that she didn't take anything with her, it was very likely that she didn't take anything away for lightness.
After all, the Ji family is the richest man, and Su Manxue's mansion has countless treasures, so she naturally doesn't have to take all these things away one by one, and Zhao Jun can't calm himself down.
He locked himself in the imperial study and used countless folds to make himself a little more comfortable, otherwise his mind was full of Su Manxue, and he couldn't keep calm at all.
But even if he locked himself in the imperial study and used countless official certificates to get out of this matter by himself, he still couldn't let it go easily.
Su Manxue was cold and hungry at this moment, not only was the environment in the dungeon dark, but the guards were even more strict, and nothing was prepared for them.
She couldn't hold it anymore, she didn't eat at night, and it was already the limit until now, Su Manxue just wanted to eat before she fainted.
When she woke up, Su Manxue thought she was in a prison cell, but she didn't expect that she was already in her palace, and there was still the smell of food around her.
Su Manxue raised her head and saw Zhao Jun sitting on the edge of her bed, she didn't expect that the first person she saw at this time would be Zhao Jun.
And maybe he rescued himself from the dungeon, Su Manxue knew that this incident had nothing to do with him, this person had no choice, and he was angry with him about this matter.
"Did the emperor rescue the concubine?"
Su Manxue asked tentatively, but she didn't accept this answer in her heart, even if it was really him who rescued her, but this matter still had something to do with him in the final analysis.
If he hadn't trapped Ji Rushuang in the dungeon, it would have been impossible for him to go to the dungeon to find out the news, and naturally he wouldn't have been locked up in the dungeon.
Thinking about it like this, Su Manxue suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and pushed everything on him, as if she had nothing to do with this matter.
"Or do you think anyone else can help you get out of the dungeon?"
The people in this dungeon are all people around him, and if it weren't for his orders, once he entered the dungeon, there would be no reason to come out.
Su Manxue was speechless for a while, she knew that she could come out thanks to him, but she couldn't easily apologize to him.
After all, if it weren't for the fact that he wouldn't be in the current situation at all, Su Manxue wouldn't look around, she didn't want to see Zhao Jun at all.
"The concubine remembered."
This kindness was still written down by Su Manxue, and she thought that she might be able to agree to the conditions proposed by Ji Rushuang before.
Since he saved his life, he is equivalent to giving him back a life, but even if he spares his life, he will definitely not be given any chance to turn the tables.
Zhao Jun stayed by Su Manxue's side for a while, and he didn't leave the Falling Snow Pavilion until the evening, and after leaving the Falling Snow Pavilion, he went straight to the study.
"Find a way to reveal this matter to him, once he knows about it, he will definitely not be able to hold it, and then he will fall into the net."
He smiled gloomily, once he let Ji Jiuhua know that Su Manxue was now locked up in the dungeon, I was afraid that Ji Jiuhua would not be able to take care of anything, so he would break into the palace directly.
At that time, Zhao Jun will be able to lock up Ji Jiuhua for a legitimate reason, no matter what Su Manxue says, he doesn't plan to let Ji Jiuhua go again this time.
Anyway, Su Manxue is now his concubine, Zhao Jun doesn't believe that she can leave from his side, as long as she stays by his side, Zhao Jun feels satisfied.
"Yes."
After all the people under him left, Zhao Jun went to the dungeon.
He specially ordered someone to dig a tunnel in the imperial study that led directly to the dungeon, so that he could get to the dungeon in the fastest time, and as soon as he passed, he saw Gu Qin who was dying.
Gu Qin was covered in injuries, and he was a little surprised that he could last so long.
"Drag him down, find two more imperial doctors to show him, be sure to hang his life, don't let him die, otherwise I will ask you!"
Before he got the answer he wanted, it was impossible for Zhao Jun to kill Gu Qin, and Gu Qin was of great use to him.
Even if he looks at the face of the Pingyang Palace, Zhao Jun will save Gu Qin's life, but it is impossible for him to let Gu Qin leave the palace in his life, and he will not want to get everything he wants in this life, this is the price of his betrayal.
