Chapter 632: Plan
General Ye also echoed beside him, not wanting to put too much pressure on the princess, "This is your father, it must be a little difficult for you to make a decision directly, I promise you that I will not hurt your father, all we want to get is the antidote." ”
When the princess heard this, she agreed directly, he was a soft-hearted person, and he didn't want to see the whole country fall. In such a situation, I don't want to see so many plague people die in the capital.
Just as they reached an agreement and were about to send the princess away, the sound of silk and bamboo sounded outside the door.
General Ye hurriedly stabilized them, lying on the door and listening, Yun Ruochen immediately let the princess hide behind the screen, and he quickly brought up the human skin mask.
"It's not good, there may be people from the government involved in the Qinglou, or someone else has come in, otherwise it would be impossible to sound the sound of silk and bamboo. This is the code word between General Ye and the old bustard, as long as someone from the government or the court comes in, the sound of silk and bamboo will definitely sound.
If they were usually just here to have fun looking for wine, the sound of the bamboo would not be so long, and it seems that this time the princess came to expose her whereabouts.
General Ye made a shushing gesture towards Yun Ruochen, opened the door a small crack, and looked out, there were all officers and soldiers standing downstairs, and he couldn't tell who was who?
In a hurry, General Ye hurriedly said to Yun Ruochen, "There is a mural behind you, there is a mechanism inside, you hurry up and leave with the princess, it is already very dangerous here, I will look for you in three hours." ”
Yun Ruochen didn't have time to say anything, so he could only do as General Ye instructed, grabbed the princess's hand, and walked directly towards the secret passage, and General Ye opened the door after seeing them leave safely.
The old bustard also walked towards her, "General, you should leave quickly, these people downstairs are menacing, I'm afraid they came to find the princess, I didn't expect that the princess had just come here and was already being targeted, it seems that you will discuss something with the princess in the future, you need to be careful and cautious." ”
General Ye waved his hand very calmly, "Don't worry, you can do what they tell you if they want to find something, I'm here." ”
Normally, no one has ever seen his true face, only a portrait, and now that he wears a human skin mask, no one knows who he is.
The bustard, just in case, sent two girls directly to sit in her room.
The officers and soldiers downstairs had already searched the first floor, and the old bustard hurriedly stepped forward, deliberately worried, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, who are you looking for? ”
Obviously, these officials didn't want to leave after looking downstairs, but turned their eyes upstairs.
"You've finished checking downstairs, but you haven't checked upstairs, so you can't let our brothers go back in vain. ”
The implication is to let the old bustard give money, and the old bustard naturally understands, and quickly took some silver and stuffed it into the hands of the official, "Ladies and gentlemen, you also see that we are a small business, these girls are still waiting to pick up customers, if you stay here any longer, I'm afraid our reputation will be over, this is the largest green building, you have also seen the girls inside, wait until another day to invite these officials over, happy and happy." ”
The old bustard deliberately pretended to be very embarrassed, but these officials took the money, but they had no intention of leaving, so the old bustard had no choice but to compromise.
"Since you want to go upstairs to check, then go upstairs, but those princes and nobles are all resting, if you disturb their rest, I'm afraid it will be ......."
All of them knew that the people who came to this Qinglou were some dignitaries, and they might be their leaders, so they didn't dare to act rashly, but just let the old bustard take people up and inspect casually, and then left with confidence.
After these people actually left, the voice of silk and bamboo disappeared.
The two girls beside General Ye walked out of the room very consciously.
Yun Ruochen and the princess walked along the secret passage all the way.
"I can't see through you a little, who are you and this General Ye? Why does he even know all about our Qinglou here? Aren't you afraid that I will leak all this news today?"
Yun Ruochen just sneered when he heard these words, if it was someone else, he might believe it, but today, he believed the princess.
"If you want to betray me, I won't come here, this Qinglou is not the place you should come to, I will give you anything in the future in the form of a note, you should be careful yourself, I have already told Chu Xiaoxiao about our situation here, but whether she can receive it or not is one thing, and Chu Xiaoxiao should be very happy to see it then." ”
After all, Chu Xiaoxiao is his savior, and he is also his nobleman.
As soon as the princess heard Chu Xiaoxiao's name, her face flashed with joy, "It's good that I can finally leave here." ”
They didn't know how long they had been walking forward, but when they heard a voice behind them, they quickly stopped, and at this time, General Ye was late enough to join them.
After the officers and soldiers left, they went to the thousand-faced fox and said, "My lord, we didn't find any traces, are you mistaken?"
Originally, the thousand-faced fox was going to talk to the princess, but also to make the princess no longer bored, so he chose to come to the inn in the evening, who knew that he saw a figure that looked like a princess walked away from the back door of the inn, and followed him to the Qinglou, which would find someone to come and ask.
But I didn't expect to get nothing.
"Have you searched every room?Are you sure you haven't seen anyone who has seen the princess??," Until now, the thousand-faced fox still couldn't believe it, he had always trusted his instincts, and believed in what his eyes saw, but now that Yun Ruochen was gone, he couldn't relax his vigilance against the princess.
"My lord is true, we have searched every room in the Qinglou, and indeed we have found nothing, you also know that in a place like the Qinglou, the people who go are some high-ranking families, and that Qinglou is still the largest of our here, the princess should not go to that place, otherwise you go upstairs to the inn to check. ”
The official said deliberately.
The Thousand-Faced Fox just waved his hand and told them to leave quickly, after all, there was no need for them at this time.
