Chapter 209: Escape? (Above)
The dark clouds in the sky flowed, obscuring the moon, which was not very bright, and a layer of black oppressive clouds shrouded the sky and the earth. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the roof of the East Palace, the three people who had just flown out of the cave covered the tiles one by one and erased the traces before getting up.
Just as they were about to leave, Tang Guxi whispered to stop them, and there was a moment of uneasiness in his heart, "What if the prince finds out that the jade seal is gone tomorrow morning?" ”
Lin Luo and Lin Xun glanced at each other, not knowing what she meant by saying this at this moment. Lin Xun said: "If the jade seal is gone, it has nothing to do with you, at most it will be two days of trouble, we haven't left any clues, you don't have to worry." ”
Tang Guxi still didn't leave, "It's okay for us to leave, but the blame will eventually fall on one person, and it is impossible for the jade seal to be lost in vain." ”
"And what do you want?" Lin Xun was a little anxious, and grabbed her arm, "You've done it this far, do you still want to put it back?" Miss, don't be confused, you didn't look forward to it when you proposed this time. ”
Tang Guxi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, withdrew his arm from his hand, and lowered his head slightly.
Lin Luo seemed to see the clue, "Are you afraid that the prince will point the finger at Su Chen?" ”
Tang Guxi glanced up at her and stopped talking.
Lin Xun suddenly understood that the crown prince and Su Chen competed with each other in the court, although Su Chen did not participate in political affairs, the powerful ministers in the court had their own power belonging to him. If the jade seal is lost, the East Palace will naturally be suspicious of Su Chen.
Suddenly, Lin Xun was relieved: "Then you take the jade seal and don't leave at the moment, and stay here to sit and wait for death, isn't it even more disadvantageous to him?" There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and it is not too late to discuss the plan after we go back. ”
Tang Guxi was stunned, as if he had suddenly woken up from the fog, and after thinking about it carefully, Lin Xun was right, it was not a way to stay here, it was better to go back as soon as possible and think again.
How can you be so stupid? It was as if her soul had left her body, making her feel in the clouds and in the clouds, extremely illusory.
"Okay, let's go."
She whispered, and the three of them turned and ran out along the rooftop, their steps so light that they barely made a sound. In the thick of the night, three black shadows flew up the wall, blending in with the deep canopy.
A cool breeze blows in the courtyard, and the leaves rattle on the two large trees that stand tall in the courtyard.
Seeing that they were about to reach the side of the palace wall a few steps, they heard a sharp shout from the courtyard, and the three of them stopped abruptly and lowered their bodies.
"Okay, how can a good fire start? Fortunately, the mother concubine was safe and unharmed, otherwise...... Otherwise, this palace will have to lock you up one by one! The fire was extinguished, but what about the arsonists? The arsonist has not yet been found! Father only knew how to talk to Su Chen, and he didn't even show his face...... This palace tells you that if you don't find out who set the fire within five days, none of you will want to live! ”
It was the prince's voice, full of anger in every word.
Lin Luo frowned, "Zhicui Palace is on fire?" ”
Tang Guxi turned his head, stared at Lin Luo and Lin Xun's puzzled faces in the night, and nodded.
Seeing her nodding, Lin Xun's eyes widened, and he suddenly realized: "No wonder, when I came over here, it was bustling over there, but it was very quiet here in the East Palace...... It turned out to be a fire, but ...... How could it be, how could it suddenly catch fire? ”
Hearing this, Lin Luo's face was slightly sluggish, and he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered what Su Chen promised them that day - to lure away the guards for them. Don't...... This fire was set by Prince Chen?
"It's a long story, I'll talk about it when I get back." Tang Guxi whispered.
"Your Highness, I have searched for them all, but I really haven't found any suspicious people, only the people around the princess ...... in Zhicui Palace" - there was a sound in the courtyard again.
However, before the man could finish his words, he heard the sound of falling to the ground, as if he had been kicked hard by the prince.
"You mean, it was the people in the concubine's palace who set the fire?" The voice was still roaring, and then a crisp slap sounded in the courtyard.
"Bastard! Are you saying that the mother raised a group of people who deliberately hurt her? Idiots, idiots, idiots! I was struggling when I was fighting the fire, and now that I'm back, I don't even know the fault, if the fire is not extinguished in time, it's all the fault of fools like you! ”
Originally, this anger went down, and there shouldn't be any more long-sighted talking, but after a short silence, there was another person who was not afraid of death to speak, and his voice was still crying and aggrieved: "That's the little ones who saw that the prince was left behind, and wanted to wait for the prince......"
"Wait for me? This palace uses you waiting? Is it important that the palace is left behind, or is the life of the concubine important? The prince was a little angry.
It turned out that the prince was fat and had some inconvenience, and when he went to Zhicui Palace, he must not have run fast, so he was left behind by the guards, but he was angry because the guards were waiting for him to neglect to fight the fire.
But it was this sentence that exposed the traces of Tang Guxi and the others. After hearing this, she did not restrain herself for a moment, and suddenly laughed, unsuspectingly......
Hearing the voice, Lin Xun and Lin Luo turned their heads abruptly and immediately covered her mouth.
However, it was still late, and the prince standing in the courtyard, and the maid and servant guards kneeling on the ground, all heard this laughter, and it came down from the roof, and everyone raised their heads and looked up.
"Who's up there?" The prince exclaimed, looked around the left and right, and didn't know where the direction was, he was a little panicked for a while, and hurriedly ordered left and right, "Go quickly, climb up and see, who is on it!" ”
At the sound of the order, all the guards got up and moved ladders to climb up.
"Oh no, get out!" Lin Luo screamed secretly, got up and pulled up Tangguxi and ran, Lin Xun walked fast and followed behind.
The three of them were together, completely exposed to everyone's eyelids, although I don't know who those three people were in the night, but just looking at the fast figure and vigorous posture, it must be an extraordinary person.
"There are assassins, protect the prince!" I don't know who shouted, all the guards took out their swords, some stayed in the courtyard to protect the prince, some ran out of the courtyard to intercept them, and some climbed up the ladder to track the three of them.
But helplessly, the three black shadows ran very fast, and the people who went up had not yet stood firmly, only to see them run to the end of the palace wall, and in the blink of an eye, they all jumped down and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
And the guards who ran out of the gate of the East Palace chased all the way along the road.
At this time, the people led by Lu Wei had just arrived, and they saw that the East Palace was in chaos, and the guards poured out from the door and the wall one by one, running in one direction, each holding a long sword in his hand.
"Oh no, that girl is in trouble." Lu Wei muttered, his eyes fixed on the direction the guards were running.
"Brother Lu, do you want to inform Your Highness?"
"Go, go!" Lu Wei hurriedly said, but before the man walked away, he grabbed him again, looking worried, "No, no, don't go yet, going to the Moxin Hall at this moment will definitely disturb the king, isn't it self-defeating?" Follow me, blend in with the prince's men, follow them secretly, see how things are going, and take the opportunity to lead them astray! ”
Leads them astray? This method is good, it does not alarm more people, but also protects the girl. After hearing this, everyone nodded, unanimously agreed, and ran forward with Lu Wei. (To be continued.) )
