921 left without a hitch
The voice inside was low.
Emperor Yongzhen's roar was gone, and only a faint sound could be heard.
Liu Xun was a little anxious, afraid that Xiao Yuanqing, who was talking to Emperor Yongzhen inside, would be delayed for too long, and he was afraid that people from outside would come in.
Seeing that Xiao Yuanqing hadn't come out for a long time, he was about to go in to urge her, when he saw that the curtain over there was lifted, and Xiao Yuanqing walked out with a veil and a slightly limp leg.
"How?!"
Liu Xun hurriedly stepped forward and said urgently.
He has been jealous of Ji Huai in the Tai Hospital for a long time, and Xiao Jinyu has been investigating some corruption in the court since he was made the crown prince.
A few years ago, when the Lin'an flood occurred, there was a sudden epidemic in the disaster area, and he joined forces with the people who went to the disaster relief at that time, and took a large amount of silver from it, which was in his pocket.
Not many people know about this matter, and their actions are even more secretive, but who knows that just a few days ago, on the second day after the new emperor ascended the throne, the person who embezzled money with him was found out and directly put into the prison of the criminal department.
Liu Xun was so frightened by this incident that he couldn't stop worrying about it, for fear that he would find out about it.
The new emperor is different from Emperor Yongzhen, in the past, Emperor Yongzhen turned a blind eye to these things in the court, but the new emperor couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, so Feng Qizhou and Guo Chongzhen were both honest people, if Xiao Jinyu was allowed to sit firmly on the throne, if he continued to investigate like this, sooner or later he would be found here, and none of them would be able to escape at that time.
Liu Xun was already timid and afraid, so when Xiao Minyuan found him and even gave him a large sum of silver, he chose to do things for Xiao Minyuan without hesitation.
Once it is done, he has the merit of the dragon, and after Xiao Minyuan seizes the power and ascends the throne, he does not have to be afraid to go there.
Even if it doesn't work, as long as he survives tonight, he will be able to take the large sum of money that Xiao Minyuan gave him, and leave the capital with his family when the time comes.
Liu Xun was a little anxious and said, "How is it, did he say it?"
Xiao Yuanqing nodded: "Let's go back and talk about it." ”
Although she didn't explain it, listening to her tone, Liu Xun knew that the purpose of their coming here tonight had been achieved.
Liu Xun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a happy face: "Really, that's great, I'm still afraid that we will come for nothing tonight, now that the matter is settled, let's leave quickly, the palace will be banned soon, Ji Huai's side can't drag on for too long, if people find out, it will be troublesome." ”
Xiao Yuanqing nodded, turned his head to look at Desan, and said in a hoarse voice, "Are you going with us?"
Desan's face was indifferent: "I'm leaving, what should my family do?"
"A palace person like me has a record of his origin, and if I run away with you, my relatives and clansmen will be implicated by me. ”
"Let's go, I've already asked someone to leave the door for you at Xiaoximen, and after you go out, you will leave through the Yuhu Waterway, and the person you answer should be outside, I only hope that after you go out, you can do what you promised me to release my brother, otherwise I won't let you go." ”
Liu Xun wanted to speak when he heard this, how could De San not go out with them, what if he stumbled on the road?!
As soon as he wanted to speak, Xiao Yuanqing reached out to him, shook his head at him, and then looked at Desan and said, "I will let your brother go." ”
"Good. ”
Seeing that Xiao Yuanqing agreed, Liu Xun could only give up.
When the two of them came out of the Royal Dragon Terrace, they were still sent by Desan, and they pretended to have just finished seeing Emperor Yongzhen, and when they wanted to leave, who knew that they bumped into the guards who were changing shifts.
"Father-in-law. ”
Someone behind him called Desan, Xiao Yuanqing and Liu Xun both stiffened violently.
Desan also seemed to be frightened, his face turned pale, fortunately he couldn't see clearly under the cover of the night, he turned his head to see the person behind him, and smiled reluctantly: "It's Brother Zhao, are you on duty tonight?"
"Yes, it was supposed to be Wang Fa here, but he broke his foot yesterday, and I came today. ”
After the guard surnamed Zhao finished speaking, he glanced at the two people behind De San, and said curiously: "Father-in-law De, who are they?"
Desan hurriedly said: "The one inside was sick again at night, and Gonggong Chen asked me to invite the imperial doctor to come over, and I just came out of the clinic for him, and I was going to send them back." ”
Hearing this, the man couldn't help but glance at Liu Xun suspiciously, and that gaze made Liu Xun instantly wet his clothes: "Why isn't it Imperial Doctor Ji?"
"Imperial Physician Ji went to Jinlin Garden, and the condition of the person inside could not be delayed, so he replaced Imperial Physician Liu. ”
Although the guard surnamed Zhao was still a little strange after hearing Desan's words, in the end, Desan was the most favored person around Chen An, and now Emperor Yongzhen was no longer the emperor above 10,000 people, and there would be no trouble if he changed the imperial doctor.
He looked away and smiled at Desan: "So that's the case, now it's dark outside, Father-in-law De don't go out and run, I'll send someone to send Taiyi Liu and them back to Tai Hospital." ”
Liu Xun's heart suddenly tightened, they didn't plan to go back to the Tai Hospital at all, let alone go to the main gate of the palace, no one knows how long Chen An's affairs can be hidden, it is too easy to have an accident when they leave through the main gate, not to mention that if these guards are really followed, how will they get out at that time?
Liu Xun hurriedly said: "Don't be so troublesome. ”
Seeing the man looking at him, he forced himself to smile and said: "I have walked the road in this palace for so many years, and I am very familiar with it, you are already working hard at night, and the guards in the palace are even more careless. We'll just go back to the hospital ourselves, and don't bother you to send it. ”
Guard Zhao hesitated: "Is it okay?"
"Of course you can, it's not good for you to leave your post on an errand, right?"
Desan also spoke beside him: "Okay, Brother Zhao won't trouble you, and I won't go either, Imperial Doctor Liu, then be careful on the way back, the road is slippery when it's dark, watch your step." ”
"Good. ”
After Liu Xun saw that after Desan's words were finished, the Zhao guard didn't force it anymore, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the lantern they handed over, and then thanked the human, and left with Xiao Yuanqing behind him.
Xiao Yuanqing hung his head from beginning to end, after the two of them left from Yulongtai all the way, they first walked out of the second gate, and when they got outside, seeing that no one was following, Liu Xun took Xiao Yuanqing and quickly turned around and walked in the direction of Xiaoximen.
The two of them were careful all the way, for fear of alarming others, and when they got there, they really saw the person arranged by Desan.
The man seemed to be in a hurry, and after seeing the two of them, he hurriedly sent them out, and Liu Xun and the two walked all the way forward in the direction of the imperial lake, except for the small west gate, and walked for most of the time before leaving the palace.
