Chapter 116: I Heard There Were Assassins
Feng Yiluan pushed open the gate of the palace courtyard, stepped on the spotless bluestone floor, and found that there was indeed something wrong with this single courtyard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info two in and two out of the courtyard, although not big, but flat and stable, regular and symmetrical, dusty, delicate and luxurious, under the feet of a brick, stone, grass and wood, there is an inexplicable sense of unreality.
She took a long turn in the so-called forbidden palace, pushed open every door and looked at it, only to find that it was empty, that the tea that had been served overnight was still a clear pale green, that roses and lilies did not seem to be reconciled all year round, that the melons and fruits were bright but lacked fruity fragrance, and that the embroidered quilts were neat, but they had never warmed the weak bodies and green silks. ……
Sure enough, it's a trick to cover the eyes.
Feng Yiluan only felt helpless, so he had to withdraw from the Forbidden Palace the same way.
Looking at the position of the stars in the sky, it was estimated that the sky was about to dawn, she didn't dare to delay any longer, she had to hurry up and return to the Yanxia Courtyard, otherwise she would be suspicious, so she picked up the white and black, performed a shadow illusion step, passed through the Yuhuayuan, and ran quickly all the way to her palace.
On the way, I saw that the stunned guards were still lying on the ground and couldn't sleep. Feng Yiluan thought to himself, this night is cold and dewy, don't let these soldiers get cold into the body, what kind of small problems do you have, after two days, it is estimated that there should be a long queue at the door of the Danfang.
Also, will anyone suspect you about tonight's events? If asked, what reason should you find to prevaricate?
She thought as she ran, and when she came to the vicinity of the Yanxia Courtyard, she slowed down and walked slowly against the wall.
After walking more than a dozen steps, and turning the corner, she suddenly found that there were nearly a hundred guards standing at the gate of her palace, each holding a bright weapon in their hands, and the cold blade reflected the cold moonlight, and these guards were all standing quietly in the black shadow, like a frozen silhouette, so the whole scene looked very weird.
Feng Yiluan's heart tightened, what are these people going to do? Could it be that they are here to arrest themselves? They only sneaked out for more than an hour before they were discovered? Is it a felony to break into the forbidden palace in the middle of the night if they are caught?
She hesitated and didn't dare to step forward, but the leading General Yuan Ruili had already sensed her breath and shouted, "There is someone over there!"
I saw nearly a hundred guards hulala all of them rushing over at once.
Feng Yiluan felt very nervous, and said that he had to quickly come up with a suitable excuse, what kind of excuse is good? Just say that white and black eat too much, eat bad stomach, take it out to find a place where no one is stinky and smelly? Will General Yuan believe this? Is there any more reliable excuse besides?
Seeing that General Yuan led the forbidden army, it only took a few breaths to rush to her and surround her, and another guard lit a torch, and the fire shone on her face, General Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said, "It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Feng Yiluan pretended to be stupid, nodded and said, "Hmm." ”
General Yuan's expression softened slightly, and said, "The princess is frightened, the last general is late, don't blame the princess." He said to his forbidden army, "Disperse and continue the search!"
"Yes!" nearly a hundred guards responded, and they scattered in unison, rushing in all directions.
"?......" Feng Yiluan was confused, she felt that in this case, it was better not to speak easily, and it was wisest to wait for General Yuan to speak first.
Sure enough, General Yuan said: "There seem to be assassins in the palace, first someone saw the whereabouts of the assassin in the west, and then someone found that the palace maids and attendants on night duty in the Yanxia Courtyard all fainted, did Princess Luan hear any movement, and was she injured?"
"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, it's not hurt. When Feng Yiluan heard this, he played a little clever, and then General Yuan's words continued: "Hmm...... I was asleep just now, and Bai and Hei suddenly jumped up and dragged me hard, and I heard a noise outside, so I quickly put on my clothes and ran out, I really was an assassin!"
Yuan Ruili didn't doubt what she said in the slightest, and asked her when it happened.
Feng Yiluan said: "Just now, not long ago. ”
General Yuan nodded and said, "Princess Luan is really smart, it's good if you're not injured, I'll send you back to the palace." ”
"Oh, good. ”
General Yuan sent Feng Yiluan to the gate of Yanxia Courtyard, which was actually only a few dozen paces away, and then he bowed and retired, and continued to fly to find the assassin......
Feng Yiluan turned around and closed the door tightly, and saw that the palace people on duty at night were still lying on the ground and did not wake up, so he woke up the attendants and palace maids one by one, and reassured them with a smile and gentle words, saying that there were assassins in the palace, so that they should not be nervous.
It was easy to return to the dormitory, Feng Yiluan put the white and black back into the nest, and he also felt sleepy, so he fell asleep deeply.
Outside, General Yuan led hundreds of forbidden troops to search and arrest the assassins in the palace, and made a fuss until dawn.
Feng Yiluan slept until three o'clock in the morning before waking up, and the palace maids only knew that she didn't sleep well last night, and they didn't call her.
After she woke up, she found that Bai Youhei had disappeared, and she heard the little palace maid say that Bai Youhei ran out again half an hour ago, and the speed was very fast, and she didn't see where she went, and Feng Yiluan didn't care about it.
After freshening up, she drank the porridge and remembered the events of last night.
When I was in the cold palace last night, the situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to think about it at all, it all depended on the response on the spot, and after thinking about it at this time, I realized that what Concubine Qi said before was true.
In this way, Yun Zhi is really a person from the Pillow Pavilion, and this Yun Zhi's temperament is very weird, I don't know if this was the original case, or because he was imprisoned for too long?
……
After drinking a large pot of porridge boiled with spiritual rice, and eating five steamed buns to pad his stomach, Feng Yiluan walked out of the Yanxia Courtyard and came to the library alone.
Listening to the guard at the door, Mrs. Yan happened to be absent, and took the people who planted the grass to plant the spirit grass, Feng Yiluan was secretly happy in his heart, so he swaggered into the library pavilion, closed the door, and rummaged inside.
It's a pity that after rummaging around for a long time, she still can't find the map secret scroll that Duanxu said, but fortunately she found a charm atlas.
Feng Yiluan opened the atlas, found the barrier-breaking charm, copied it with a pen and paper and drew it stroke by stroke according to the original pattern, and silently memorized the charm, and then carefully put the atlas back in its original place.
After doing this, she quietly went to the martial hall to cultivate, and by the way, she practiced two very practical small techniques.
It wasn't until the evening that she left the martial arts hall, and came to the Danfang to find Ji Li leisurely, and described her experience last night in detail.
After listening to this, Ji Li pondered for a moment, but asked her: "Last night, there were really assassins in the palace, or did they look away?"
Feng Yiluan shook his head and said, "I don't know, anyway, those who fainted were all dizzy from white and black, hehe." ”
Ji Li said: "It's better for you to be careful these days, I think there are really assassins, today I asked the forbidden army who tested the medicine, and the place they said about the assassins was not in the same direction as the place you went last night." ”
Feng Yiluan dragged his cheeks with his hands, tilted his head and said, "Oh...... In this way, it seems that this time, it is someone's turn to take the blame for white and black. ”
