Chapter 459: The Storm Rises (31)
"I'm ..... I'm about to ...... I can't run...... Stop..... I'm dying of exhaustion......."
Xia Qing was led by Bai Youshi in the alleys of the palace, shuttling and running in various ways.
She hadn't run like this in a long, long time. Even if she had had such an experience before, it was a long, long time ago, and recently she has been idle every day, and her physical fitness has long been not as good as before.
Running on the road so fast and long, Xia Qing only felt that her heart was pounding violently, her breathing had already been disrupted, and the air poured into her throat with an indescribable tingling pain, which was indescribably uncomfortable. Several times she felt a fishy sweet taste from the bottom of her throat, which made her even want to gag.
"Hold on, I'll catch up again. Shaohua Palace is really heavily guarded, and even called that man to guard ......."
Bai Yu was still holding Xia Qing's hand tightly, and even he didn't notice that the movements of the two were so ambiguous. Xia Qing drifted his eyes to the sky, not paying attention to the hand that was grabbed by Bai Yushi.
His hands are warm and dry. Holding it in her hand for some reason reassures her and gives her a sense of security.
"It's not easy to get out just now, so just bear with it, run to a relatively safe place and we'll stop. ”
Today's Baiyu is a little gentle, maybe even he doesn't know why he is so gentle. may be more and more familiar with Xia Qing, and he has changed more views of this seemingly weak but strong girl.
Or maybe she gave him a kind feeling. Gave him a familiar feeling. Let him unconsciously be gentle with her. Such tenderness, since the man left, he has never shown to a woman.
Even if he used to talk to other women gently, it was all fake, he played it, and he put on a mask for himself in order to do things. But today, he is really gentle with her.
"Okay..... let's go......"
Xia Qing exhaled deeply, she also understood that their situation was very dangerous now, the important thing was that they couldn't use light skills yet, and they were almost covered with secret guards. Run on the ground and they have a chance of winning.
If there is only one person, it will be fine, and if you have to bring her oil bottle, the chance of winning is almost none.
"I didn't find that thing, but it's okay I found something else, and I believe this can also lure Concubine De out, as long as she doesn't leave the palace. ”
Xia Qing nodded, signaling that he understood. She had always understood this, but the guys liked to treat her as mentally retarded, and they didn't want to tell her anything, just letting her do the simplest and easiest things. She's willing to do something that challenges her, but she really hasn't had a chance.
The road in front of him was still dark, and Xia Qing didn't even know if he would be tripped to death by the suddenly emerging stones, whether he would be captured by the pursuers behind, and then die in this palace.
She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to die in this boring palace. If her body is buried here, she will have to cheat her corpse out of boredom in the future.
Just now in Shaohua Palace, she really thought she was dead.
Outside, there was a black crowd of soldiers, and a fierce man staring straight inside. Every time he gave him a look, she thought he was looking at her, and if it wasn't for Bai Youshi's constant covering of her mouth, she was really not sure if she would have screamed on the spot.
The soldiers violently kicked the gate of Shaohua Palace and broke it, and then there was a search.
A lot of things in it were broken by their brutal search methods, and the most distressing thing should be a vase from the former dynasty that Xia Qing had just met not long ago. That thing is now priceless. It just crumbled to the ground, like other cheap vases, lying on the ground, leaving only a fragment of the ground.
If Concubine De is lucky enough to be able to return to this Shaohua Palace one day, she will probably be so distressed that she will be suffocated, right?
The collection of this room must also be a sustenance for her boring days.
"Not here!"
"Not here!"
"Report to your lordship, this room has been searched and there are no assassins. ”
"Keep looking. ”
The adult standing at the front waved his hand, his eyes full of disgust, "I can't find it to see you today." ”
He hates assassins from the bottom of his heart, and no matter how well he handles it, he will make him angry, which is why he has not been promoted. The above only remembers the bad news brought by his appearance, who cares otherwise.
Today was the umpteenth time he had done such a thing.
From Cheng Qing's ascension to the throne to the present, there have been so many people who want his life that no one can say an accurate answer.
Therefore, the safety of this palace is the most important thing. If even the emperor's life was threatened, would he still have a reason to live, he would have followed his old man a long time ago.
"It's the little obedience. ”
Once is not enough, then twice, if two times is not enough, then three times, in short, they almost lifted the Shaohua Palace, but they still failed to find the trace of the so-called assassin.
"Didn't you say it must be here? Huh?"
When he said this, his eyes were glued to the palace man who was standing on the side and had just come to ventilate the news.
"You must be there, sir, don't you see it! ”
"What's the use of seeing, did you see people going in, or did you see those guys being drugged?"
"Except that they were poisoned, what else could they be? They are all women, so it is impossible for them to drink and get drunk...... Moreover, this is Shaohua Palace, and they don't dare to mess around. ”
The people of that palace only felt that they were wronged.
He just saw the person who fell to the ground at the door, and he really panicked.
Just in case, he immediately called the adult who was in charge of guarding here, and it stands to reason that this is the most correct and most appropriate way to do this, but because he didn't find a figure now, he was scolded by this adult who was as big tempered as rumored.
"Stop listening, and look for ...... No, I'll go in with you this time, and you'll be on guard outside. ”
"Yes. ”
The palace man trembled and took a few steps to the side, lowering his head and not daring to look at this angry adult.
"Get in!"
"Yes!"
A group of officers and soldiers rushed in after the lord, exuding the momentum that they would raze this place to the ground if they could not find the assassin today.
"It's a horrible ......."
The people of that palace had only heard of the horror of this adult before, but today they really saw it, and it really killed him.
If there really weren't any Assassins in there, wouldn't he be today........
"When can we get out..... when can we get out?"
"Wait a minute. ”
"When?"
"The timing of the hole. ”
