Hou Junji has been in the army for many years, and there are many generals who have known him in the imperial guards. Therefore, Hou Junji is also well-informed in the imperial guards. His actions in Gaochang gradually spread among the imperial guards, so how could he not know?

On the day when Xie Chong impeached him, Hou Junji had already received the news.

There is no strong person in the world who is not airtight. Hou Junji also knew this truth, but he did not expect that the news would leak so quickly, and he did not expect that the first person to visit was Li Ke.

In the evening that day, when it was not dark, Hou Junji was returning to the house from the Right Guard Office with concern, but when he first arrived at the door, he saw more than ten horses tied outside the door. One of them was tall and majestic, standing out among the horses, which was different from what he had used to. Hou Junji recognized the identity of the horse at a glance, which was Li Ke's Dingbei.

Li Ke's Dingbei is a god-horse in the northern desert. The dragon horse given by the emperor is not allowed to ride it except Li Ke himself. Since Dingbei is here, it is naturally Li Ke who has arrived.

"Are there guests in the mansion?" Hou Junji went to the mansion to dismount and asked while throwing the reins of the horse into the hands of the sect.

The sector who was guarding the door replied: "His Royal Highness of the King of Chu suddenly arrived, and now he is sitting in the side hall of the mansion."

When Hou Junji heard what his disciples said, he felt panicked and had a guess in his heart. Could it be that the truth was revealed and Li Ke was here to capture him on the order of Li Shimin?

But Hou Junji thought about it and felt that it was not true. If Li Shimin had really issued an order to arrest him, he would just send the three officials to the mansion and bring thousands of Niu Wei at most. What kind of identity is Li Ke? How could he do such a criminal arrest?

Hou Junji asked, "How many people did the King of Chu bring? Where are they?"

The menzi replied truthfully: "More than ten people, they look like they are all led by the guards of the King of Chu's palace."

When Hou Junji heard this, he felt relieved. If Li Ke had intentionally taken him, he would not have brought only a dozen people to his mansion. It seemed that Li Ke had not captured him, and there was nothing important at that time.

Although Hou Junji was not in harmony with Li Ke, he did not dare to neglect Li Ke when he arrived at the mansion. After a little cleaning, he hurried to the side hall.

"His Royal Highness of Chu is so bright that he is coming to the humble house." Hou Junji said, bowing and smiling, entering the side hall, and saying to Li Ke.

Li Ke looked at Hou Junji and went forward, but did not get up to return the favor. He just deliberately dragged his voice and said to Hou Junji: "It is because the mountain is not high and there is a fairy, and although the General's Duke Chen's mansion seems simple, it is probably just an appearance."

Hou Junji listened to Li Ke's words, as if he had other intentions, and asked, "I will not understand your highness's words."

Li Ke smiled and said, "Simplicity is nothing but appearance. If the general's mansion is included in the things hidden in it, it is probably more expensive than my King's Chu Palace."

Li Ke's Chu Palace was built by Yang Su, the former Duke of the Sui Dynasty. It occupied half of the yard and was extremely luxurious. It was the highest in Chang'an prefectures. The rest of the kings could not compare with him. This is well known. How could the Duke of Chen's mansion, Hou Junji, compare with the Duke of Chu Palace?

But Li Ke's words were heard, and Hou Junji was extremely panicked. He already knew what Li Ke meant. Li Ke was mostly saying that money from Gaochang State robbery was hidden in his mansion.

Hou Junji pretended to be steady and said: "What does Your Highness mean? You will be even more confused when you say it."

Li Ke's lips frivolously and said with a smile: "Does the general want me to mention Gaochang's affairs again in person?"

Hou Junji knew Li Ke’s intention, but he still pretended to be confused and said to Li Ke: “Your Highness is talking about General Helan’s affairs. The last general is also sad for General Helan’s death, but this is really unexpected. I hope your highness will not blame him.”

Li Ke waved his hand and said, "Although the matter of Helan Yueshi has not yet been completed, since I have mentioned it to the general in person, I will not mention it again. What I am talking about is the treasure brought back by the general from the Gaochang royal city."

As expected, when Hou Junji heard what Li Ke said, he mentioned the treasure he brought back from Gaochang City. It was naturally the mountains of gold, silver and jewelry piled up in Gaochang King City. But since Hou Junji was already greedy and never reported to Li Shimin, how could he recognize this? If he recognized this matter at this time, wouldn’t he be in the memorial to Xie Chong’s impeachment of him?

Hou Junji said uneasy: "Your Highness is joking. Although the Duke Chen, the last general, is far less rich than the King of Chu's Mansion, is more rewarded by His Majesty, and is considered wealthy. It will never be short of the cost. How could he bring back any treasures from Gaochang?"

After hearing Hou Junji's words, Li Ke pointed at Hou Junji, shook his fingers, and smiled and said, "The General is hiding his own private matters, but I have heard that the General has found two peerless beauties from the Gaochang Royal City. His skin is as white as snow and his face is extremely beautiful."

After hearing Li Ke's words, Hou Junji understood what Li Ke meant. It turned out that the treasure Li Ke mentioned was actually a beauty, not the treasure he plundered from Gaochang Royal City.

Li Ke was known as a romantic man when he was young, and most of them were also a lustful person. He heard that some people had rumored that Hou Junji had two stunning beauties from Gaochang. It was natural that it was reasonable to take a look at it.

Hou Junji suddenly said, "It turns out that what Your Highness is talking about, but this is indeed true. When he captured Gaochang King Ju Wentai, he captured two beauties from Ju Wentai's palace. These two beauties are indeed different from my Central Plains women. These two beauties do not eat food, only drink human milk, so their skin is as white as jade, and they are as frost as snow, which is rare in ancient times."

Li Ke heard this and said curiously: "It's very fresh when eating human breasts."

Hou Junji said, "When I was indeed in this case, Mo Jiang was very surprised when he first got these two women. Because they were beautiful, they had thought of offering them to Your Majesty, but they were rejected by Your Majesty and gave them to the General of the Last. Mo Jiang didn't know that Your Highness also liked these two, so he hid them in the mansion. If Mo Jiang had known His Highness's intention, Mo Jiang would have offered them to him early in the morning."

Li Ke paused, so he acted: "Isn't it good for me to capture people's love so much?"

Hou Junji said, "What's wrong? Your Highness just speaks and will send the beauty to Your Highness's mansion later."

"Ha ha."

Li Ke laughed loudly and bowed, saying, "In this way, I thank the general for giving up the love."

After Li Ke said that, he didn't mention anything else and stood up and left.

In the side hall of Duke Chen's Mansion, Hou Junji and Hou Yong, the housekeeper of Duke Chen's mansion, watched Li Ke leave. Hou Yong gladly said to Hou Junji: "Alang, if we had known that two beauties would be able to block the King of Chu's mouth, why would we have to do such a struggle?"

Although it is rare to be a beauty, Hou Junji will definitely be reluctant to leave it, but offending Li Ke will suffer a great loss. Compared with his wealth and life, the two women are nothing, so Hou Yong also said this.

When Hou Junji heard this, the smile on his face disappeared suddenly. He sighed and said, "Li Ke, this little fox, may not be his opponent, even the chief Sun Wuji, so how could it be so easy to fool?"

Hou Yong asked, "What does this mean by Alang?"

Hou Junji said worriedly: "I'm afraid this is Li Ke's delaying plan. You can find Chu Shi for me. I want to see the prince again tonight."
