“His Royal Highness, it’s not good!”

Hu Feng frowned, stopped the galloping horse immediately, and turned to look at Zhou Gang: “What’s the matter?”

Zhou Gang looked very angry, but said calmly: “His Royal Highness, there are spies among our people, and all the prisoners have been poisoned.”

“What?” Hu Feng’s expression drastically changed. He turned his horse’s head, hitting the horse’s butt, and ran towards the prison.

The three prison cells contained more than a dozen prisoners. All the prisoners’ mouths were foaming.

Hu Feng was furious: “What’s going on? What did they eat? Who gave it?”

Zhou Gang pointed to the corpse on the other side and said, “It’s that person. He has taken poison and killed himself.”

“Look at it quickly, is there any way to rescue it?”

Zhou Gang shook his head: “He’s out of breath. The prisoners are the same. I don’t know what poison it is, it’s very powerful.”

Seeing that he was about to arrive in the capital, then something like this happened at this time. It can be seen that these people could have been an iron proof that Chu Feng could be convicted, but now it has become impossible.

“His Royal Highness, what should we do now?”

Hu Feng shook his head: “Let’s go back first.” Although they have done a good job, they will leave some traces. The case was still pending, as long as they catch a little clue, there will be a day they can solve this case.

In Xiao Wangfu

“His Royal Highness, things are done.”

With joy on his face, the guard rushed to report to Chu Feng excitedly.

Chu Feng nodded his head: “Well, don’t let your guard down. Chu Yan is not as simple as you think. Keep your eyes on him. If there is any problem, report it immediately.”

When the guards retreated, Chu Feng got up and went back to the inner room to change into a more gorgeous brocade robe.

The maidservant waiting to serve blushed as she asked: “Your Highness, are you going to enter the palace?”

Chu Feng glanced sideways. The face of this woman serving him was excellent. It’s just a pity, she can’t enter his eyes now.

He stretched out his hand to push the maid away and fixed his belt.

The maid looked at the back of His Royal Highness striding away in surprise. Her eyes gradually turned red, as she bit her cherry lips, trying to prevent herself from crying. What happened to His Royal Highness? Why did he treat her like this? His Royal Highness used to treat her very tenderly and never speak a heavy word. She thought that she would be His Royal Highness’s woman sooner or later.

What happened? Why did your Highness suddenly change?

Eunuch Du, who was accompanying Chu Feng, asked: “His Royal Highness is going to enter the palace?”

Chu Feng frowned: “What? Are the words “I want to enter the palace” written on my face? How did the two of you think that this prince wants to enter the palace?”

Eunuch Du smiled and said: “His Royal Highness will only wear such eye-catching robes when entering the palace.”

Chu Feng looked down at the brocade robe on his body. He was wearing a pale purple soft smoky coat, and a big belt with the same color and pattern tied around his waist. Is this very eye-catching? Doesn’t he always dress like this?

The clothes he usually wore were prepared by the maid. He never paid attention to it. He picked this one by himself today, he thought the color was very good.

“It’s good if it’s eye-catching, so you can catch the eyes you want!” He smiled and said to Eunuch Du: “Prepare the horse, this prince is going to the tea party.”

Tea Party? His Highness never goes to such an event at ordinary times. Why will he go there today? Eunuch Du didn’t dare to ask more, he hurriedly let someone prepare a horse, which he also found strange. Since the winter came, His Royal Highness rarely goes out riding a horse. No matter where he goes, he usually goes out in a carriage. Why was he going to a tea party riding a horse this time?

His Royal Highness was getting weirder and weirder.
