Chapter 1016
Hou Zewen glanced at the prince, and then said: "There is something to do, let's go into the room and talk about it."

Chu Li nodded and let Hou Zewen into the room.

Hou Zewen looked around and found nothing unusual.

He didn't take out the imperial decree immediately, but asked, "When did His Royal Highness arrive in Jianyang City?"

Chu Li was stunned for a moment, then panicked: "Yesterday."

Hou Zewen's heart sank slightly. According to the news given to him by Emperor Chu, the prince arrived in Jianyang City three days ago, and the prince lied at this moment. Is it true that he wanted to plot rebellion as Emperor Chu said?

Hou Zewen: "The emperor is worried about the safety of the prince, and hopes that His Royal Highness will leave for the palace immediately."

"Father wants me to go back to the palace now?" Chu Li frowned and pointed to the night sky outside: "Uncle, it's so dark outside, how can I go back to the palace? I'll go back to the palace to see Father tomorrow morning."

Hou Zewen shook his head: "Your Highness, this is an order from the emperor."

As he spoke, he took out the imperial decree and announced it.

Chu Li was stunned, took the imperial decree in a daze, then stood up, approached Hou Zewen, and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, why did the emperor make such an urgent imperial decree, asking me to return to the palace overnight? What's going on? "

Hou Zewen looked at Chu Li's bewildered expression, and really didn't believe that such a prince would collude with the King of Qin and cause his father to rebel against him.

He hesitated for a moment, and whispered the news to Chu Li: "The emperor got the news that the crown prince colluded with the king of Qin, intending to rebel..."

"Ah?!" Before Hou Zewen finished speaking, Chu Li exclaimed. He grabbed Hou Zewen's sleeve and said eagerly, "Uncle, you watched Li'er grow up. Li'er respected his father since he was a child." With Jia, how could it be possible to rebel?"

Hou Zewen: "I didn't believe it at first, but if you really want to prove your innocence, hurry up and return to the palace with me."

He paused, stepped forward to hold Chu Li's shoulder, and comforted in a low voice: "Don't worry, uncle will speak for you, as long as you are sincere, the emperor will definitely not do anything to you."

"Okay." Chu Li had no choice but to nod his head and agree: "Please wait outside, and when I change my clothes, I will go back to the palace with you to meet the emperor."

Hou Zewen nodded, turned around and walked outside the door.

Chu Li closed the door and was about to discuss with Lin Xiu when there was a slight knocking sound outside the window.

Chu Li hurried to the window, opened the window, and Yu Juechen flew in like a gust of wind.

When Chu Li saw Yu Juechen, his heart that was up and down was instantly calmed down a lot. He quickly closed the window, turned around and asked Yu Juechen, "Young Master Yu, why are you here?"

Yu Juechen: "I got the news that Jinling City Hou Shangshu brought people to the inn. I guess they came for His Royal Highness, so they followed."

"Exactly." Chu Li said anxiously: "Father found out about the matter between me and Uncle Qin, I'm afraid I'm going to attack me, Mr. Yu, what should I do now?"

"What does the emperor mean?" Yu Juechen asked.

Chu Li: "Father asked me to enter the palace with my uncle immediately."

"So urgent?" Yu Juechen frowned: "His Royal Highness may not be free when he enters the palace this time, His Royal Highness must be prepared."

"Get ready? Prepare for what?" Chu Li panicked and looked at a loss.

"At the moment of life and death, prepare to break with Emperor Chu." Yu Juechen looked at the prince: "At such a critical moment, I'm afraid either you will die or I will die."

"You...you mean, let Bengong..."

Chu Li turned pale with fright.
