The more Wu Yuanheng listened, the more he felt that this matter was tricky: "You mean that the county lord doesn't know his true identity?" ”

"This matter is obvious, the father and son of the Xiao family want to use her to order the people of the Wu clan, and then seize the Wu clan after the matter is completed." Li Chengxuan was worried.

Wu Yuanheng was so smart, he guessed the secret when he heard it, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is difficult, how sure are you about this matter?" ”

"Seventy percent." Li Chengxuan said truthfully, "This is also the reason why I accompanied her to Nanpu, she wants to know the truth." ”

Wu Yuanheng pondered for a moment when he heard this, and thought about it, "Since this is the case, it is also an opportunity." It's better to let the county lord come forward to contain them, and use this excuse to confirm their background, let's take the opportunity to leave to move the rescue soldiers, what do you think? ”

"I'm afraid it's not that easy." Li Chengxuan thought of the strange situation in this city, and his worry deepened, "If it is really as Xiangye guessed, the people in this city are all confidants of the Wu family, I am afraid that we have fallen into a trap, it is easy to enter the city, but it is difficult to get out of the city." ”

"As long as it drags on for two more days, the lower officials will have a way to get out of the city." Wu Yuanheng didn't hide it from him.

Li Chengxuan groaned slightly, and had already guessed, "Xiangye has cultivated a secret passage?" ”

"Not bad." Wu Yuanheng pushed open the window of the cubicle, pointed to the rockery not far away, and said, "Lord Wang, please see, there is an abandoned tunnel under the rockery, which should have been repaired during the war in Jingnan thirty years ago. However, the exit to the outside of the city had collapsed, and we had to dig another exit, which would take at least two days. ”

Li Chengxuan looked at the inconspicuous rockery in the garden, but he didn't expect that there was a tunnel underneath, which was more or less a glimmer of hope. It's terrible that they escaped from Wuning, but they couldn't escape from Jingnan.

"Does Jingnan Jiedu make Pei Jun reliable?" He asks key questions.

"Reliable, he is a member of the Pei clan in Hedong, and this time the saint asked Pei Shaoqing to come with him, also to facilitate the cooperation." Wu Yuanheng paused and said, "Now it is very clear that the envoys and observation envoys of Jingnan, Jiangxi, and Hunan are all loyal to the imperial court, and it is because of this that the lower officials dare to come to the secret visit without bringing people." ”

Li Chengxuan calmed down after hearing this, and said, "Even if there is an authentic tunnel, I'm afraid it will take some effort to get out of the city." How many people are available in the prefectural government today? ”

"Including the soldiers defending the city, a total of 2,000 people, which is enough." Wu Yuanheng stroked his beard on his chin, "Don't forget, Lord Wang, we have Pei Shaoqing." He used to be a general in The Hague, and leading troops was his forte. ”

When Wu Yuanheng said this, a calm and confident light flashed in his eyes. This made Li Chengxuan suddenly remember that he was an old man who had gone through three dynasties, he was half a hundred years old, he had deep experience, he acted cautiously and thoughtfully, and he should be the head of everyone.

Thinking of this, Li Chengxuan temporarily put his mind at ease and decisively said, "In this case, according to the arrangement of Wu Xiangye, two days later, Xiling and I will come forward to contain them, and you will leave from the tunnel to move the rescue troops." ”

"You want to stay?" Wu Yuanheng was very surprised.

"I'm advancing and retreating with Xiling." He looked determined, "How long will it take you?" ”

"At most one day, the Five Towns Coalition Army is ready to be reorganized in Jingnan and ready to be on call at any time."

Just when Li Chengxuan and Wu Yuanheng had a secret talk, Xiling Yue had already thought of a way to get out, which coincided with the strategy of the two of them.

"After all, the Xiao family has raised me for eighteen years, so they should be merciful to my subordinates. In the next two days, I will find an opportunity to hold their attention, so you can take the opportunity to leave. She said.

"How's that going to work!" Guo Zhongting was the first to object, "If my father and mother knew, they would never allow you to take this risk." ”

"Father, mother......" Xiling Yue's face was gloomy and she didn't answer.

I still remember that in September last year, in the Fuwang Mansion, the eldest princess suddenly came to recognize her relatives, and she couldn't believe it at that time. Until she was named the "Xichuan County Lord" and moved into the Eldest Princess's Mansion, she didn't regard herself as the Guo family, she just felt that everything was so out of place.

But in the past six months, her mind has gradually changed. The eldest princess and his wife are kind to her, Guo Zhongting cares for her, and the Son of Heaven trusts her...... Although the royal family is ruthless and the family is snobbish, she has found warmth in this ruthlessness and snobbery. She began to be proud of her surname Guo, and proud of her great-grandfather who was a generation of military souls who saved thousands of people in dire straits.

However, the heavens played a huge joke and dealt her a fatal blow after she adapted to this new identity. Not only is she not a loyal queen, but she is a chaotic thief. Xiling Yue could only smile bitterly.

Seeing this, Guo Zhongting thought that she had heard that the clansmen had removed her from the family tree, so he hurriedly said to comfort, "Don't blame my father and mother, they are also forced to do so." In fact, they remember you very much, otherwise they would not have begged the Holy One to let me make meritorious contributions, in the final analysis, it is all to protect you. ”

"But I'm an impostor." Xiling Yue decided to tell the truth.

"What?" Guo Zhongting was very surprised.

Pei Xingli and Bai Juyi were also shocked, even Acui and Adan heard about it for the first time.

Xi Lingyue bit her lower lip, but after all, she didn't say the terrifying guess, but said, "We met Li Wangzhen in Weizhou, she has a birthmark exactly the same as mine, and the position is the same." The prince and I suspect that she is the real daughter of the eldest princess, and she has been fostered in Li Shidao's house. And I'm ...... It's just a tool for the stepfather to get close to the Guo family. Xiling Yue confided calmly.

Several people were surprised when they heard this. However, thinking about the marriage between Xiao Yi and Li Wangzhen, and then thinking about what the Xiao family's father and son did, I felt that this matter was very likely.

After the initial shock, Guo Zhongting was the first to react, and he sighed in surprise, "If this is the case, you and the prince will have hope!" ”

But as soon as the words came out, he suddenly remembered that Pei Xingli was Xilingyue's official fiancé, and he was busy and embarrassed to change his words, "Eh, this...... I mean, you and the prince will hopefully clear their name. ”

"That's right," Bai Juyi also felt that this was a good thing, "The reason why the Holy Lord is angry is also because he suspects that you have a deeper relationship with the Xiao family's father and son. If it can be confirmed that you are being used by them and are not related to the Guo family, it can alleviate the suspicion of the saints. ”

Yes, after all, a civilian woman is not lethal in the eyes of the Son of Heaven. Xilingyue doesn't want to be an ordinary and ordinary woman from a good family, but it's a pity that the sky doesn't fulfill people's wishes.

Only Pei Xingli has not opened his mouth since he reunited with her, and after listening to her words, he has sensitively realized something.

After all, when Xilingyue secretly explored the Qianling Tomb and rescued Kongkong'er's brothers and sisters, he was the only witness. He saw Xiao Yi's hesitation and contradiction with his own eyes, and also saw Uncle Zhu's father and son's politeness to Xiling Yue - "Yue'er, give me the things in the box and leave with me." ”

"Young master, you can't have a relationship with children right now, otherwise Your Highness's identity can't be hidden!"

"Yes, Yue'er, we are a family, we are all for your good."

……

Recalling the previous situation, Pei Xingli turned his head to look at her suddenly, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Xiling Yue knew that he had guessed, and couldn't help but tear out a very ugly smile, and said to herself, "That's right, it's exactly what you think." Pei Xingli was shocked when she heard this, and before he could react, she added, "General Pei, we ...... Let's get out of the marriage. ”
