Chapter 452: Positive
Chu Yunsheng also saw the blurred appearance of these two people through the dim light, it was very unfamiliar, she should have never seen it.
Lord Xiao, who walked on the left, was dressed in the service of a fourth-grade official in the court, and the man who had been talking to him on the side was a military general, wearing silver armor, and he walked in a sassy manner, but there was a little less heroism and fortitude between his eyebrows.
If Chu Yunsheng hadn't been able to confirm that Master Yuanchen was being held here, then she could basically confirm it when she heard the conversation between the two at this time.
Just now, Master Xiao said - you and I know who is locked up in Dongyuan, at this time, if you say such a thing, then it must mean that that person is Master Yuanchen.
However, at this time, the news of my aunt's death had just arrived, and the two of them came here on the orders of King Wei, what were they going to do?
The only thing Chu Yunsheng could think of was what King Wei said when he left the attic where his aunt was, he planned to do it to Master Yuanchen immediately after his aunt's death, so the purpose of these two people at this time was self-evident.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng's heart also tightened, at this time she knew that the purpose of these two people was to be unfavorable to Master Yuanchen, but she couldn't follow these two people closely, because the guards in front were too strict, she couldn't get close at all, and since they had already acted, if she didn't find Master Yuanchen before them, then the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, her back felt cold.
The two people were still talking, but they had already gradually moved away along the corridor, and finally disappeared behind the crescent-shaped arch, and Chu Yunsheng, who was hiding in the shade of the trees, did not dare to hesitate at all, her body flashed and jumped onto the roof, and then according to the topographic map of the East Garden of the Princess's Mansion that had been sketched in her mind, she stepped on the courtyard wall and directly avoided the most heavily guarded place, and ran on the ridge.
These two people took the main gate, which was naturally the closest route, and Chu Yunsheng had to take a detour at this time in order to avoid the guards, so she was worried that she wouldn't be able to catch up, so she gritted her teeth and ran as fast as she could.
When she successfully jumped to the front of the hospital where Dongyuan's defense was the weakest, she jumped in without the slightest hesitation.
Behind the courtyard wall was a pool of lotus flowers, and after Chu Yunsheng jumped in, he glared at the courtyard wall a few times, trying his best to keep his body light and fall into the water, so as to avoid the sound of the water being too loud and alerting the guards not far away.
After stirring up a small splash, her whole person had already fallen into the water, fortunately, the lotus flower in this pool grew very well, completely covering her figure, although the sound of falling water was still not small, causing the guards under the corridor not far away to turn their heads and take a closer look, but Chu Yunsheng hid in the depths of the lotus leaf and did not move, so he dodged the past.
After a moment's wait, to make sure that the previous scrutinizing eyes had been removed, she gradually leaned towards the cloister with her hands.
In the past, not only did she not know water, but she was also afraid of water, but since that time in Shangyang, because she didn't know water, she finally became a drag of Ah Shuo, he took her unconscious in the water to move forward in the ice water, and finally escaped from He Rong's search, that time in order to save her, he was already heavily poisoned and died, and because of such a soak in the cold and biting water, he let the toxin invade his body more and more, and finally almost died...... Therefore, since then, even though Chu Yunsheng was still afraid of water, she still forced herself to learn to float, she didn't want to be a drag when she encountered such a dangerous situation again, she wanted to be side by side with him......
Thinking of this, even at this time, the pond water in late autumn was already a little biting, but Chu Yunsheng's heart was warm, every time no matter how difficult it was, no matter how dangerous the situation, as long as she thought of him in her heart, she felt that she had infinite strength and hope again.
Although Chu Yunsheng was thinking about her thoughts, she still didn't forget to keep an eye on the movement on the shore, just when she was about to swim to the bottom of the corridor, she heard footsteps not far away, she was in the pool, her position was low, so she couldn't hear whose footsteps it was, but then when she heard the sound of the person's voice, Chu Yunsheng also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
"Lord Xiao, it's in the dark room over there, I can send my men to complete the rest of the things, Lord Xiao doesn't have to run this trip in person, and when the subordinates come back from finishing their work, how about the two of us go to drink two glasses? ”
This person was none other than the two people who had been ordered to come to Dongyuan by Chu Yunsheng in front of Dongyuan before.
Hearing the man's words, the tone of that Lord Xiao was the same as before, with a little alienation: "For such an important matter, it is better for me to run it in person, and you also said that this matter is unstable for everyone, seeing that the last link is over, how can I say that I will also see it in person so that I can go back and return to His Majesty, as for the matter of drinking, let's talk about it later." ”
The conversation between the two of them gradually approached, and Chu Yunsheng moved his body slightly, hiding more and more in the depths of the lotus leaves.
At this time, she was glad that she had chosen to take this secluded path and lurk here through this lotus pond, because she herself did not expect that she would arrive here one step earlier than these two people.
However, fortunately, but still careless, at this time the two of them were walking on the corridor, and Chu Yunsheng tried his best to keep up with their pace in the water, and he couldn't make a sound.
Fortunately, there are autumn cicadas chirping on many trees around here, and there are frogs chirping everywhere in the lotus pond, so Chu Yunsheng's slight paddling sound is hidden in the sound of frogs.
However, the bad thing is that it didn't take long to reach the corner of this corridor, and the lotus pond had already reached the end.
Chu Yunsheng had to crawl out of the lotus pond quietly, wet but still using light skills to dodge the guards around him from time to time.
After hiding through the two pillars of the corridor, Chu Yunsheng didn't have time to wipe off the water droplets on his face, and jumped directly onto the top of the corridor, and then jumped to the top of the room that the two people were pointing to just now in a few dodges on the ridge.
There were also a large number of guards standing outside the house, but because of the arrival of these two people, everyone's attention was on them, and no one noticed Chu Yunsheng lurking on the roof.
Chu Yunsheng changed shares on the ridge of the roof, and saw that there was no chance at the main entrance, so she turned around and came to the back window of this room, and when she poked her head out, she saw that there were two guards standing below, but there was already another courtyard behind this room, so there were two guards at this window here, and the rest of the people were standing outside the courtyard.
Seeing that the two people who carried out the order before had already entered the house, Chu Yunsheng couldn't delay any longer, her body jumped down from the ridge of the roof in a flash, and while jumping down, her wrist flicked, and the dagger hidden in the inside of her arm had also slipped into her palm, and her movements were also extremely fast, when she swept to the top of these two people's heads, her palm that was already full of internal force had already aimed at the heavenly spirit cover of one of them and slashed down.
This palm alone had already shattered the man's head, killing him with one blow, and the man didn't even have time to exhale in pain, and almost at the same time, Chu Yunsheng's other hand holding the dagger had already slashed through the neck of the other person, and after his left hand was successful, he backhanded over and pressed the man's mouth, suppressing the words he was about to burst out.
In the blink of an eye, the bodies of those two people fell straight down.
At this time, the guards outside the courtyard were all facing away from the courtyard, and they couldn't see the situation inside, plus at this time, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the window was in a shadow under the eaves, so before seeing that these two people were about to fall, Chu Yunsheng used all his strength to support them one by one, and then gently put them on the ground to avoid making a collision sound.
At this time, there was no place to hide around, Chu Yunsheng had no other way for a while, and at this time, she was very worried about the safety of Master Yuanchen in the room, so she didn't dare to stay any longer, and directly pushed the window open a gap and looked inside.
Through the gap in the window, Chu Yunsheng saw that the two people were about to turn around and enter a secret room that had been opened out of the wall, and from her angle, she could see the dim light coming out of the secret room, and she couldn't see inside.
At this time, there were no other guards in this room, except that there was a row of guards standing at the door, but they were all facing away from the room.
At this time, Chu Yunsheng, who was worried about Master Yuanchen, couldn't manage so much, she raised her hand to push all the windows open, and at this moment, a wind suddenly swept behind her.
In the blink of an eye, two figures followed the wind and appeared behind Chu Yunsheng, she reacted very quickly, quickly retracted the action of pushing the window, and immediately turned around, and after seeing these two people clearly, Chu Yunsheng let out a long breath.
It turned out to be binary and dumb brothers.
I don't know when the two of them have touched here, this speed insisted on exceeding Chu Yunsheng's expectations, she came here from the attic all the way to the first time Concubine Duan released the news of the princess's death, and they had to avoid the layers of guards all the way from outside the mansion to here, and at this time she was all soaked, as if she was a female ghost who had just crawled out of the water, but these two people were neatly dressed and had a relaxed face, and it was not as difficult as she had come all the way.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng felt a little embarrassed, and this embarrassment was only for a moment, because at this time, she was more worried about Master Yuanchen in the secret room across the room.
Rushing in like she did just now was naturally too impulsive, and it was very likely that Master Yuanchen would not be saved in the end, and she would have to take her own life, after all, there were too many guards here.
And now it's different, Binary and Dumb are here.
And the two elements also seemed to have seen through Chu Yunsheng's thoughts, and he gestured to Chu Yunsheng and Brother Dumb.
Chu Yunsheng already understood his thoughts when he saw it, and Brother Dumb had obviously communicated with the two yuan before coming here, after the two yuan compared this gesture, the dumb brother only glanced at Chu Yunsheng, then nodded and disappeared again in a flash.
In the next moment, he appeared in the front yard of this house.
Because he appeared suddenly, the guards in the courtyard were stunned for a moment before they came back to their senses, and when they came back to their senses and drew their swords to catch him, Brother Dumb swept his body and walked towards the outer courtyard, and most of the guards at the door also chased him out.
On this side, because there was a situation in the front yard, these guards in the backyard immediately probed over to look, but when they saw two straight shadows still standing in the shadow of the window, they also put their minds at ease, and some of them were called to the front yard for support.
But what they didn't know was that at this time, the two shadows standing under the window were no longer the two guards before, but Chu Yunsheng and Eryuan.
After Brother Dumb successfully attracted the guards at the door to chase him out, Chu Yunsheng pushed open the window and jumped into the room, while Eryuan was still guarding the window.
Chu Yunsheng swept into the room and didn't dare to hesitate at all, she tiptoed a little, and walked directly to the dark room.
After entering, I found that this was a long secret passage leading to the bottom.
Oil lamps were lit on both sides of the passageway, which was very dim, but enough to illuminate the stone steps underfoot.
Chu Yunsheng has a bad memory of the darkness and the secret passage, and every time she arrives in this relatively claustrophobic space, the fear and panic in her heart will rise exponentially, but at this time, without Su Jingshuo by her side, she can only go down by herself.
The further down you go, the dimmer the light becomes, and the oil lamps on both sides sway from time to time under the night breeze, making this secret passage more and more treacherous.
At first, Chu Yunsheng could only hear the sound of her own heartbeat, but gradually, the sound of dripping water came, and she followed the sound of dripping water all the way down, and finally came to the end of the stone steps and saw a stone room.
The stone door was half-hidden, but the voice of Master Xiao from before had already sounded inside.
"Mr. Yuanchen, this official is here to have good news and bad news to tell you, I don't know which one you want to hear?"
As soon as he heard this, Chu Yunsheng, who was outside the half-hidden stone gate, almost jumped up excitedly.
Sure enough, Master Yuanchen is being imprisoned here!
Thinking of this, she had an urge to push open the stone door immediately, but reason told her to listen to it first, and make sure that the situation inside was sure before she started, so as not to jump over the wall and threaten Master Yuanchen.
Therefore, after taking a deep breath, Chu Yunsheng withdrew his hand pressed on the stone door, stepped back, stuck himself on the stone wall, pricked up his ears and let go of the six senses to perceive the situation inside.
However, after Lord Xiao said this, no one on the other side responded to him.
