Chapter Twenty-Seven: Out of the Palace

On the night that Nanyue came out of the Internal Affairs Office, a carriage staggered down the path on the outskirts of the forest. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The car was dark, and the faces of Wan Yanmin, Nanyue, and Chuanling were faintly visible in the moonlight.

Nanyue's master and servant were both dressed in light men's clothes, and it was Yufeng who was driving.

When Nanyue returned to Shengxuan Palace, she hurriedly pulled Wan Yan Min out of the palace, precisely because she found something unusual on the wood of the Internal Affairs Mansion.

"Miss, do we really have to be in such a hurry?" Chuanling knew that her young lady had always been calm in trouble, and this nervousness made her suspicious.

"If this is on the front line, every minute is a hundred thousand urgent." Nanyue seemed to have something on her mind at the moment, and frowned slightly.

"Now you can tell me what the Internal Affairs Office is all about." Wan Yan Min came out of the palace and changed out of Su Ri's black clothes, and at this moment he was wearing an elegant and dusty white man's outfit, and his tone still did not fluctuate.

"You are right, the former dynasty and the harem are indeed inextricably linked, and I suspect that this incident is not only related to the former dynasty, but even involves the front line."

Nanyue recalled the scene she had just seen in the Internal Affairs Office, and she tried her best to stay calm in front of Zhou Xuan. But when I caught a glimpse of the inscription on a walnut tree, I was taken aback.

"The emperor can know that all the wood is engraved with the word 'Yancheng'."

"Acting in the city? This is the origin of the wood, and the official wood used by the royal family will indicate the origin of the tree. Wan Yanmin thought carefully about the meaning of the word "acting city", and did not feel that there was anything wrong.

Nanyue looked at Wan Yanmin with a solemn expression, and continued: "When Su He and I were studying the explosive potato in the training ground, we found that all the wood used for military vehicles in the training ground also had 'Yancheng' written on them. ”

At this time, Nanyue and Wan Yanmin stopped talking, and both of them knew what this might mean.

Seeing that Chuanling was still puzzled, Nan Yue added: "If someone pretends to use the harem expenses to buy timber and secretly sell arms, and I don't know where this batch of arms will be sent and what it will be used for, it is terrifying to think about." ”

"But the need for the palace is a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of chariots and arms, even if someone has ulterior motives, how can they quench their thirst?" Chuanling still can't figure it out.

Nanyue continued her speculation: "I also thought about this problem at the beginning, and I couldn't explain it clearly in many places, so I felt suspicious. However, this batch of timber must have a tenfold connection with munitions. We sat in the palace and didn't know anything, and we didn't know that during the thousands of miles from Yancheng to the palace, the truth was buried in several layers by someone with a heart. ”

"That's why Miss is in such a hurry to leave the palace and want to find out?"

"Yes, it's to test my guess."

Nanyue was silent after seeing Yan Min, knowing that he had acquiesced to leaving the palace this time, so she analyzed more boldly: "Building a few pavilions and pavilions in the harem on the surface cannot be compared with the huge military expenses, but this is precisely the trick used by the initiator to grasp people's conventional cognition. ”

Indeed, the financial resources expended by the two are not equal in number. However, the chariots and weapons are all made of ordinary wood, and the royal palaces and pavilions are all selected from famous trees that have taken thousands of years to become a tree. The value of a boxwood is enough to build a thousand hundred military vehicles. If there is really someone with great powers, you can sit at home and guide the country by simply transferring flowers and trees on the ledger."

Wan Yanmin stared at Nan Yue's unreal silhouette in the carriage without moving, his queen always seemed to surprise him.

Nan Yue suddenly deducted the carriage as if she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, also, according to this huge expenditure on the ledger, it is enough to use the best materials to build weapons and munitions." However, the saltpeter of the mine-making in the training ground is clearly the color of scum, and it is strange that the ammunition made by such a thing can beat the Western Qi army. ”

Wan Yanmin's eyes narrowed slightly, a terrifying cold light shot out of his starry eyes, and he slowly spit out a few words: "It's that I have always only paid attention to the outside of the palace, but I have neglected the present." ”

"Outside the palace, what is it?" Nanyue looked at Wan Yanmin with a puzzled expression. It was as if he hadn't heard anything, and his face was extremely gloomy.

At this time, the horse was suddenly frightened, and the carriage was about to overturn, and there was a rumor of wind around him, and there was a sonorous sound of swords colliding.

The four of them all knew that something was wrong, and the two of them immediately got out of the car to deal with it, and Wan Yanmin took Nanyue out of the top of the sedan chair.

It was a group of masked men in black, surrounded on all sides. It seems that there has been an ambush for a long time.

One of the people with sharp eyes recognized the scar on Nanyue's face, and the dagger in his hand stabbed her fiercely.

Wan Yan Min protected Nan Yue in his arms, kicked the dagger in his hand, and the cold breath in his palm touched his waist, and the man spewed out a mouthful of bright red and fell to the ground suddenly. Yu Feng and Chuanling fought with the rest of the men in black, and the scene was mixed.

After seeing the death of his accomplice, a few more people were aggressive, and Wan Yan Min noticed that these people had no intention of entanglement with him, and the left and right swordsmanship were all trying to avoid him, and the move was aimed at Nanyue. Immediately, he hugged the person in his arms tighter, and a thunderbolt swept out, the light and fire scattered, and a row of people fell to the ground when they heard the sound.

In the end, only one person wanted to run away when he saw this, but he was hit by Yufeng's sword: "Say, who instigated it?" ”

The man squeezed out a stream of red blood from the corner of his mouth, and his neck hung down.

Yu Feng was startled and said to Wan Yan Min: "Master, it's a dead man." ”

"Hey, you can put me down." Nanyue was very dissatisfied with Wan Yan Min's action of restraining her, she obviously had light skills, and she didn't need him to protect her.

Wan Yanmin came back to his senses when he heard the sound, and immediately let go with an expressionless face.

Chuanling on the side suddenly groaned at this moment, Nanyue hurried to Chuanling's side, and found that her face was not quite right: "Are you injured?" ”

Can't wait for everyone to explore the identity of the dead soldier again, Nanyue quickly made a new decision: "My whereabouts out of the palace have obviously been exposed, we arrived in Yancheng at this speed, even if no one was killed on the way, when we got there, the truth would have been stolen long ago." ”

Without saying anything, he said to Chuanling: "It is obvious that the group of people just now is going to deal with me alone, Chuanling, you can't follow me anymore, we must be separated, one is to transfer the target and ensure your safety, and second, even if I make a mistake with the emperor, you can also find a way to support." ”

"Yu Feng asks that the bell girl be sent back to the palace and walk with the two masters."

Chuanling was reluctant to live or die, and pulled Nanyue: "How can this work, Miss doesn't know martial arts, and no one will take care of her when she arrives in Yancheng, she will definitely suffer." ”

Wan Yanmin couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, and was glared at by Nanyue.

Nanyue knew that it was impossible for her to go back with Chuanling's temperament, so she said directly to Yufeng: "Chuanling knows my mind everywhere, and I will be more convenient for her to be around." That's it, Yufeng, Chuanling will teach you to take care of it, and when she is injured, the two of you will go to Yancheng together, if she is missing a hair, the palace will ask you. ”

After that, he pulled Wan Yan Min to make light work and left.

"Niangniang ......" is extremely angry, but the two have disappeared in front of them in an instant.

In the middle of the night, the first two people fell on the roof of a house to rest. Nanyue looked at Yan Min suspiciously: "Let me ask you, what do you mean by smiling so ill-intentioned just now?" ”

"Do I have it?" Wan Yanmin is calm even if he lies.

However, he was really in a happy mood at the moment, leaning on his back on the roof, and slowly let out a sentence: "I'm just thinking, your maid really protects you tightly, I have never seen the queen suffer." ”

Before Nanyue had a seizure, he instantly bounced up: "Let's go, otherwise I won't be able to find a place to stay until the sun sets tomorrow." ”
