章節 312: Familiar

Emperor Chong'an's eyes flickered. The people he had sent to Anyang County had returned a few days ago, but they found that Song Jingchen was still in Xiagou Village.

The shadow guards beside him were handed over to him by the late emperor. They were all nurtured from a young age. They would only be loyal to the emperor their entire lives, so they would never lie.

There were only two possibilities. The first was that the person the shadow guards saw wasn't Song Jingchen at all, but a substitute.

The second was that Lord Zhou had seen it wrongly.

However, he subconsciously sided with Lord Zhou.

After all, he had already been suspicious when he found out that Young Master Shenzhi had saved the entire Xunyang City alone. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent the Shadow Guards over.

Emperor Chong'an glanced at the jade pendant in Lord Zhou's hand. Lord Zhou understood and bowed to send the jade pendant to Emperor Chong'an's desk.
