Chapter 67
Looking at the two beasts who were still wandering around these plants and refused to leave, the third prince felt that he had no place to vent his anger, and kicked over a pot of brightly blooming flowers with one kick. Angrily said: "Throw all these things out, let them continue to search here!"

He didn't believe that without the interference of these flowers and plants, no one would be found!
If he hadn't come here before, he might not have thought of Yanjue, but these two trained military dogs came sniffing. There are many places where these plants grow in this palace, but why did he find it here? Never believe this is just a coincidence!After people moved all the flowers and plants out of the backyard, after some communication, the two well-trained military dogs began to sniff around the yard again.

Yan Jue The entire palace was being searched inside and out, which disturbed everyone's dreams. Under the order of the third prince, everyone was driven to the outer courtyard, and they were strictly investigated one by one.

Although this was the residence in the palace given to Yan Jue by the emperor, but because Yan Jue always likes to be quiet, although the place is big, there are not many people, so it is almost effortless to check.

But at this moment, the two dogs that had been hunting around in the backyard suddenly stopped moving, raised their heads, and barked at the maids standing in the corner.

The third prince looked at the maids whose faces were pale with fright, and saw that they just lowered their heads, as if frightened, his eyes narrowed, like a hound that had finally found its prey, and suddenly strode towards Followed the maids.

When they came to these people, the maids could only lower their heads tremblingly, not daring to say anything.

"Raise your heads up!" The third prince's voice was not very loud, but it was extremely intimidating and threatening, which made the faces of the maids who were already terrified even paler, but no one dared to look up at the third prince's scary face. face of fear.

"Look up!" The third prince emphasized again, his tone was much stronger than before.

Under the pressure of the third prince, the maids couldn't help but tremble for some unknown reason, but their frightened appearance only made the third prince more certain that Gu Rou was hiding among these few people.

"The third prince asked you to raise your heads and then raised them." At this time, Yan Jue's voice came from behind, as gentle as ever.

The third prince cast a sinister glance at Yan Jue who was coming over, but saw that his expression was still calm and calm, and his performance far exceeded the third prince's expectation.

A murderous look flashed in the eyes of the third prince, and the maids in front of him slowly raised their heads.

However, when he saw the faces of these maids clearly, a coldness flashed in his eyes imperceptibly. Then, he raised his hand and checked the faces of several maids gently.

But soon, the third prince's face became gloomy again, because there was no trace of disguise on the faces of these maids.

The guards who had searched the house earlier also retreated to the courtyard after searching. A subordinate whispered something to the third prince, and the latter's expression suddenly became a little cloudy.

The whole house was searched, and every corner where people could hide was spared, but Gu Rou still couldn't be found.

The third prince's gaze was like a sharp blade, sweeping across the people in the courtyard with endless killing intent, and the people in the entire palace gathered in this courtyard under the coercion of the third prince's guards. The reason for coming was very frightened and puzzled.

Wherever the Third Prince looked, the entire courtyard was quiet, only the constant barking of dogs could be heard, still directed towards the maids.

Doubt flashed in the third prince's heart, but under the urging of the sound of the dog, he once again directed his suspicious eyes to those maids.

A dog's judgment is never wrong.

The third prince carefully observed their faces, but to his disappointment, although these maids were extremely frightened, there was no guilt in their eyes.

Isn't Gu Rou here?

How can it be!

If there was no Gu Rou inside, why would the two dogs keep barking at them?

Thinking of this, the third prince gestured to the two guards who controlled the military dogs with his eyes, and the latter instantly understood what he meant. The two of them leaned down to the ears of the two black dogs, said a few words, and then let go. opened hands.

The two ferocious animals rushed to the maidservants in front of the third prince in an instant, sniffed them carefully, and then kept wandering around these people, even making whining and chirping sounds.

The third prince frowned and turned his head, the guard stepped forward in a cold sweat and replied: "Third, third prince, I'm afraid these maids have the smell of those plants on them."

Hearing such an answer, the third prince was already in such a bad mood that he even wanted to kill all the people in the yard in an instant.

He turned his head, looked at the fearful and timid maids in front of him, and asked fiercely, "What are you guys doing here?"

After the voice of the third prince fell, a maid looked at him cautiously, and summoned up her courage: "Go back, go back to the third prince, the servants and servants are just here to clean the outer courtyard and move flowers and plants on weekdays."

Banquets never like to be served personally, and without his consent, no one dares to enter his room. Although there are not many of these maids, they have always come here and only serve as decorations. They clean and clean the yard on weekdays. Even the inner room is rarely entered.

The maid's answer has already explained well why they attracted the attention of the two dogs. They are servants who usually take care of the courtyard, and there are many plants in the courtyard that Gu Rou has come into contact with today. The body is naturally contaminated with the smell, so the military dog ​​with an extraordinary sense of smell will chase after the smell.

Even specially trained military dogs are greatly strengthened and different from other dogs, but they are not human after all, and can only rely on the refutation of smell to find people who are contaminated with those plant smells, but for other dogs Judgment, but not so strong.

But such an answer is undoubtedly another blow to the third prince. His father handed over the matter to him, which meant that if he could not find Gu Rou, he would face extremely unfavorable consequences.Furthermore, he had acted arrogantly towards Yan Jue just now, if the matter ended like this, he would be slapping himself in the face.

But he couldn't find Gu Rou, and the third prince could only be dumbfounded.

The guards have already searched the entire palace, not to mention a single person, even a hidden fly has been found out, and now everyone is standing in the yard, Yan Jue is calm about everything in his palace Presented, but now, there is still no result that the third prince wanted.

Even though the third prince was certain that Gu Rou must be hiding here, it was just hidden by the other party in a clever way, but if the third prince continued to be aggressive, he might become unreasonable. It was rumored that it would inevitably have a bad influence on his struggle for the position of prince.

Just when the third prince was in various embarrassments, Yan Jue remained calm as if nothing happened, and asked neither arrogant nor humble: "I wonder if the third prince has found the person he was looking for?"

Facing Yan Jue's indifferent question, the third prince's ugly face was in stark contrast to it, because the veins on his forehead were faintly bursting out of anger, the third squinted his sinister eyes, resisting the means to kill, and said coldly : "Yan Jue, I really underestimated you, you'd better be lucky to have such good luck!"

After finishing speaking, he snorted coldly, and left in a rage.

The lively and tense courtyard returned to calm after a short while.

After the third prince had left for a long time, Yan Absolutely comforted the terrified unknown people in the courtyard, and then asked them to go back to the house. Those who should sleep should go to sleep, and those who should not sleep should do what they want.

After everyone dispersed, Yan felt that his eyes slowly turned to a thin figure in the corner wearing guard clothes, with a faint smile in his eyes.

Then the two walked into the house one after the other.

After the door was closed, Gu Rou breathed a sigh of relief and said like the rest of her life after a catastrophe: "Fortunately, I was not discovered, it was too dangerous just now!"

Gu Rou didn't find a place to hide, and when the third prince didn't come, she used strong spices to cover up the smell on her body, and changed into the clothes of the guards to stand with the other people in the courtyard.

In order to strengthen security and confuse the dogs' sense of smell, some people brought in some evening primrose and lily-of-the-valley and other plants in time, and picked some and put them on the maids. Sure enough, they successfully deceived the two military dogs. The sense of smell diverted everyone's attention.

The third prince only thought that she was disguised and hid among the maids, but he never expected that she was disguised as a bodyguard instead, and she was just a few meters away from him.

Although Yan Jue seemed to be fine, but his heart was not so relaxed, he said: "The third prince didn't believe the result just now, he has already sent someone to watch my yard in the dark, you can rest here tonight, Tomorrow, I will find an opportunity to send you out safely."

Gu Rou nodded. This is indeed in line with the character of the third prince. He was already sure that she was here, and he would definitely do everything possible to catch her, and he would not enjoy watching the banquet.

Yan Jue looked at her with deep eyes, which seemed to be filled with countless emotions. After a while, he sighed faintly and said: "I wanted to keep you by my side to protect your safety, but I didn't expect..."

He concealed the words behind, but there seemed to be many things hidden in those eye-catching eyes, with a touch of melancholy.

Gu Rou looked at him, blinked her eyes slightly, and said, "Actually, I will only bring you trouble."

Yan Jue looked at her for a while, and said seriously: "I never thought you were a trouble, I just blamed myself for being too incompetent..."

……

As the night returned to calm, the night passed quickly. Gu Rou couldn't sleep all night because of the uneasiness in her heart, until the next morning, Yan Jue went out of her yard as usual, and walked towards Yuefu.

It's just that today's him is a little different from the past. He usually goes in and out by himself, but today there is an extra guard behind him.
