Chapter 249: Rescue
Shangguan Yunrui didn't expect Feng Yu to value herself so much, looking at Feng Yu with firm eyes at the moment, Shangguan Yunrui swore in his heart that he must protect her.
"There are two rooms left, be careful."
There was a voice at the door, and just when Feng Yu and Shangguan Yunrui had nowhere to escape, a noisy sound suddenly came from downstairs.
The searchers also seemed to have gone downstairs in a hurry, Feng Yu and Shangguan Yunrui glanced at each other, the two walked to the door, Feng Yu wanted to go out to see, but was stopped by Shangguan Yunrui's wrist.
"Wait."
So the two hid at the door and listened carefully to the movement outside the door, but because the two were upstairs, the sound of talking downstairs was very small, and they couldn't hear it clearly.
Feng Yu ran to the window and looked down, and the soldiers who had surrounded Zuihualou were gone, what was going on? Could it be that something is going on again?
"Yunrui."
Hearing Feng Yu shouting to herself, Shangguan Yunrui immediately came to her side quickly and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"The people downstairs are gone."
Shangguan Yunrui looked down, he really didn't see the soldiers, and then looked at the door, Shangguan Yunrui hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'll go down and have a look first, and I'll pick you up again if it's safe." ”
Feng Yu nodded, and then Shangguan Yunrui flew downstairs, he looked around, and met a few people who were running around the corner.
"Uncle, what are you running? Is there something going on in this city? ”
"Childe, you still don't know?" The uncle who was stopped looked at Shangguan Yunrui with a panicked face and said, "The fight has started, and someone has come in with a large army." ”
When Shangguan Yunrui heard this, he immediately understood, and went around to the front door of the Zuihua Building to see that the soldiers guarding there were long gone.
Fengyu was still waiting by the window, but Shangguan Yunrui didn't show up for a while, thinking that he was arrested, and when he was about to go out to look, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Walking to the door, Feng Yu vigilantly asked who it was, but Shangguan Yunrui's voice came.
Opening the door, Feng Yu looked at Shangguan Yunrui and said in surprise: "Why did you come back from here?" Is Zhao Zongqi gone? ”
"There's no danger here, let's go." Shangguan Yunrui grabbed Feng Yu's hand, the two quickly went downstairs, and came to the street, Feng Yu saw the people fleeing in all directions, and felt very strange.
Shangguan Yunrui looked at Feng Yu and said with a smile: "Our reinforcements have arrived. ”
Reinforcements? When Feng Yu heard this, her heart was suddenly overjoyed, and she didn't have time to be happy, so she said to Shangguan Yunrui: "Let's go to Rui Wang's Mansion quickly, don't let Zhao Zongqi run away." ”
Zhao Zongqi looked at Xiao Yan who was riding on a horse in front of him, he really didn't expect Xiao Yan to escape, and he also brought General Wang who was guarding Nanguan.
And Xiao Yan looked at Zhao Zongqi at this time, and he only had anger in his heart, everything he did to the emperor and Feng Yu before would have to pay the price.
"Zhao Zongqi, you imprisoned the emperor in an attempt to usurp the throne, and now that my army has entered the city, I order you to hand over the emperor immediately, and maybe spare your life."
With a cold snort, Zhao Zongqi said loudly to Xiao Yan: "Xiao Yan, I admit that I really underestimate you." I thought you were seriously injured, and Jiangzhou was heavily guarded, so you couldn't escape. ”
"I really didn't expect you to be so capable of inviting reinforcements."
Speaking of this, Zhao Zongqi raised the sword in his hand and observed, "But you really think I'm so stupid and hand over the emperor, then I have only one way to die." ”
Xiao Yan looked at Zhao Zongqi with cold eyes, and after he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth immediately rose.
"Not necessarily."
"If you are willing to be honest and honest, who is behind the instructions for you to do this, maybe ......"
"Xiao Yan." Zhao Zongqi interrupted Xiao Yan's words with a smile and said, "I know what you mean, but do you think that person was also offended by me?" ”
"Besides, I did it, what do I have to do with anyone else?"
The reason why Zhao Zongqi didn't tell the truth and didn't admit that the person behind it was Xiao Qishan was because the matter had not yet reached the point of no return.
If he confessed to Xiao Qishan at this time, Xiao Qishan would also have the ability to protect himself, and he would definitely be killed.
Xiao Yan also seemed to think of what Zhao Zongqi was thinking, and was about to continue to persuade him with good words, but he heard Zhao Zongqi say: "Now that the emperor is in my hands, if you dare to act rashly, the emperor's life will be ......."
Looking at Zhao Zongqi's inevitable smile, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "What do you want?" ”
"My request is very simple, if you let me go, I will let the emperor go."
Sneered, Xiao Yan said, "Didn't you say that if you release the emperor, you will only have a dead end?" Or do you think you can escape from the Northern Capital? ”
Zhao Zongqi looked at Xiao Yan and the others with a calm smile, "The world is big, I, Zhao Zongqi, have a way to leave the Northern Capital and go to other places, but this is not for General Xiao to bother." ”
"Now, as long as General Xiao lets me go, I guarantee that the emperor is safe and sound."
Xiao Yan frowned and looked at Zhao Zongqi, he had inquired about the emperor's location before, but there had been no clues.
"Can't promise him!"
Just as Xiao Yan was about to promise Zhao Zongqi, a voice suddenly came from the side, Xiao Yan turned his head to look, and saw Fengyu and Shangguan Yunrui running over from the side.
After Zhao Zongqi saw Feng Yu, his face suddenly changed, and Feng Yu looked at him with cold eyes and said, "Zhao Zongqi, you imprisoned the emperor to usurp the throne, don't think that you can escape." ”
At this time, Xiao Yan had already dismounted and ran to Feng Yu's side, and after checking on her, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay if you're okay, I'm afraid you'll be discovered." ”
Feng Yu smiled at Xiao Yan, Shangguan Yunrui next to him frowned slightly, he wanted to speak but was touched by Feng Yu, as if to shut him up.
"Don't promise Zhao Zongqi, if we let him go, he will definitely be able to escape from the northern capital."
Feng Yu glanced at Zhao Zongqi and continued: "This person is quite scheming and good at strategy, if he is released, it will be equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain, and it will be even more difficult to catch him in the future." ”
While Fengyu was speaking, Xiao Yan's brows did not stretch, "What you said is reasonable, but the emperor is in his hands, for the sake of the emperor's safety, we can temporarily promise him." ”
"No, I think my father should still be in the Rui Wangfu at the moment." Feng Yu shook her head seriously and said, then glanced at Zhao Zongqi, and said in a low voice: "Go all out to take down Zhao Zongqi, and then you and I will go to find my father." ”
"If the father is really in the Rui Wangfu, then we don't have to let Zhao Zongqi go, if the father is hidden elsewhere by Zhao Zongqi, we can arrest Zhao Zongqi, and we can exchange him as a hostage."
Xiao Yan and Shangguan Yunrui glanced at each other, and both felt that what Fengyu said made sense, so Xiao Yan turned around and whispered a few words to Lin Ye.
"Zhao Zongqi, don't be delusional, this time, we must eradicate you, a rebel!"
After Feng Yu finished speaking, Lin Ye led people to immediately rush towards Zhao Zongqi and the others, while Feng Yu and Xiao Yan, as well as Shangguan Yunrui, took a detour to Rui Wang's Mansion.
At this time, everyone in King Rui's mansion knew that Xiao Yan had entered the city with reinforcements, and they all fled, and when they saw Xiao Yan and Fengyu appear, they were even more frightened.
Xiao Yan stopped the fleeing subordinates and said in a deep voice, "Where is the emperor?" ”
"The general spares his life, the little one doesn't know where the emperor is."
Feng Yu looked at the chaotic people in the courtyard, thought for a while, and said, "Zhao Zongqi locked me in the secret room at the beginning, could it be that my father is also locked up there now?" ”
"Check it out."
The three of them walked to Zhao Zongqi's room, the inside was still as clean as ever, Feng Yu led them to find the entrance to the secret room, and Shangguan Yunrui stayed in the room in case of accidents.
Feng Yu and Xiao Yan entered the secret room, and the secret room was still the same as Feng Yu sometimes, Xiao Yan looked around and said, "Let's look for it separately, there is usually a dark layer in the secret room." ”
"Okay."
The two searched in the secret room, and finally Xiao Yan found the dark layer behind the shelf, and sure enough, the emperor was inside.
"Found it."
When Feng Yu heard that Xiao Yan had found the emperor, she immediately ran over, and the two helped the emperor out and made him sit on the ground.
Xiao Yan helped the emperor check the pulse, and helped him check whether there were any injuries on his body, but fortunately, the emperor was not injured, but after a toss, his body was very weak.
"Father, the son is late, let your father suffer."
The emperor opened his eyes and saw Feng Yu, and held her hand excitedly, "Qiluo, it's okay if you're okay, it's because my father didn't protect you." ”
Feng Yu looked at the emperor with red eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Father, don't say that, the son can protect himself now, and he can also protect his father." ”
Xiao Yan next to him looked at the two of them and said, "It's not appropriate to stay for a long time at this moment, Your Majesty, let's go out first." ”
The emperor nodded, Xiao Yan handed the sword to Feng Yu, then carried the emperor, and the three of them left the secret room.
As soon as a few people left Zhao Zongqi's room and came to the hall, Lin Ye rushed in with someone, "General, the rebel Zhao Zongqi has been captured and imprisoned. ”
"Lin Ye, you immediately led someone to search in the Rui Palace, and the second prince was also locked up."
"Yes, Princess."
Lin Ye quickly led people to search, but did not find Feng Lin, Feng Yu discussed it, and prepared to rush back to the capital overnight to prevent Feng Lin and Hui Guifei from being unfavorable to Feng Yi.
General Wang, who guarded Nanguan, escorted him all the way, and expressed his heartfelt heart to the emperor in this way, and won the emperor's trust.
Xiao Yan prepared the boat as fast as possible, and rushed to the capital overnight with Fengyu and the emperor's cadres, but the emperor was in a coma since he got on the boat because of his poor spirits.
"I don't know if Fenglin and Concubine Hui have already returned to the capital, if they take this opportunity to persecute the imperial brother, the imperial brother will definitely ......"
Feng Yu sighed deeply, and Xiao Yan comforted: "Don't worry, I also left people in the capital for the prince, and since the prince can let Shangguan Yunrui come to support, it also means that he has already guessed." ”
"The prince is a smart man, he will definitely take precautions in advance, don't worry too much."
Just as the two were talking, Lin Ye suddenly walked over quickly, with a solemn expression on his face.
"General, Zhao Zongqi ran away."
