Late at night, the palace was quiet, although the various palace rooms were brightly lit, but there was no noise, and in a dilapidated courtyard, a man in black walked out.

He was tightly wrapped up and down, leaving only a pair of eyes outside, and the whole person was completely hidden in the night, even if a palace person passed by, he would not be aware of his existence.

This person is Shen Tao.

He waited for a long time, until the night was completely over, and then he walked out.

This time, his goal is very clear, that is, Xiao Yechen announced to the outside world that Hu Yancheng was recuperating in the Cold Light Palace.

Shen Tao jumped on the roof, his eyes were full of scrutiny, after a few jumps, he hid his body behind a tree, stared at the brightly lit Cold Light Hall in front of him, and came to the top of the Cold Light Hall with a breath, a pair of eyes full of coldness.

At this time, in the Cold Light Palace, Hu Yancheng and Hu Yanqin were talking.

It's just that as soon as he heard this delicate and gentle voice, Shen Tao immediately heard that this person was Hu Yanqin.

Hu Yanqin has really arrived in the palace, why can they still stay in the Proton Mansion so far, no one has come to the door?

Just thinking like this, Shen Tao's heart suddenly hung up, and after he confirmed that the person who spoke was Hu Yanqin himself, he immediately returned the same way and arrived in the Proton Mansion.

Late at night, Cheng Xiaoyan was wearing only a single dress, which was especially thin in this bleak autumn night, but she didn't feel the cold at all, but looked at Shen Tao and said incredulously: "What did you say?" Hu Yanqin has already arrived in the palace? ”

"Exactly, and you're with Hu Yancheng, miss, the people in the palace must already know your true identity."

Shen Tao's face was full of anxiety, and now looking at Cheng Xiaoyan, he knew that their every move at the moment was only afraid that they would be exposed to Xiao Yechen's eyes.

"Not good!" Cheng Xiaoyan's face turned pale, and she said coldly at the moment: "Let's leave Proton Mansion now and leave the city immediately tomorrow!" ”

"Shen Tao, you quickly send a message out, so that everyone else in the capital is also ready, as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow, we will go out immediately!"

Cheng Xiaoyan quickly arranged it, she especially regretted it at this moment, if she had been ruthless and killed Hu Yanqin, would there be no result today? It's just that there is no regret medicine in this world, even if she regrets it in her heart, there is no way not to save it, and the plan for now is to get out of here quickly.

After hearing this, Shen Tao left to receive the order.

The night was like a promise, the starlight was slightly cool, Cheng Xiaoyan was standing in the courtyard, and only then did she feel a chill to the bone. Although she didn't know why Xiao Yechen still kept herself, she knew that no matter what the situation was now, Xiao Yechen would definitely be wiped out in the end!

In that case, let others temporarily attract the firepower for you!

Cheng Xiaoyan made up her mind in her heart, and she no longer had any pity for others.

Early the next morning, it was quiet in the Proton Mansion, and there was no movement

Jing, after seeing this, the secret guards under Leng Yanbu immediately had doubts, and when they entered the mansion to investigate, they found that all the people in the Proton Mansion were unconscious, and Cheng Xiaoyan, who should have been inside, was no longer there.

After sensing Cheng Xiaoyan's escape, the secret guard immediately entered the palace to report.

Du Yan was grinding when she heard the news, and after hearing this, she suddenly looked at Leng Yan in surprise and said, "Cheng Xiaoyan has already escaped?" ”

"It's the fault of the subordinates, the subordinates didn't take a good look at Cheng Xiaoyan, so Cheng Xiaoyan and his subordinates all fled, and now they can no longer be found in the capital."

Leng Yan said with a guilty face, after hearing this, Xiao Yechen looked at him with a pair of cold eyes, and said, "Leng Yan, you have disappointed me too much, you can't even do this little thing?" ”

Hearing Xiao Yechen's words, Leng Yan immediately lowered his head and was silent, he knew that in the final analysis, he had done something wrong, and there was nothing to justify.

Du Yan saw Leng Yan's appearance, but she couldn't bear it, so she stepped forward and said, "I don't know why Cheng Xiaoyan left suddenly?" Could it be that she found out about Hu Yanqin's return? ”

"The matter of Hu Yanqin in the palace is only known to you and me and a few cronies, and it is absolutely impossible for Cheng Xiaoyan to know." Xiao Yechen shook his head and quickly denied Du Yan's idea.

However, Du Yan was not a perfunctory person, she looked at Xiao Yechen and asked in a low voice, "Yechen, do you remember before?" In those few nights, you and I always felt that someone was staring at us, and then a palace maid died, and I always felt that there was someone else in this palace. ”

As soon as he heard Du Yan's words, Xiao Yechen's eyes shrank slightly, and he gradually had a guess in his heart: "Yan'er, there are many secret passages in this palace, according to what you say, I think Cheng Xiaoyan is very likely to know one of these secret passages, Cheng Yuan was friendly with the first emperor before, and it is normal to know one or two secret passages." ”

Xiao Yechen also began to speculate here, he just thought about it, and immediately handed over the task to Leng Yan: "Leng Yan, you take someone to search all the palace rooms in the palace to see if there are any secret passages that we haven't discovered." ”

"Yes."

"If you still can't do this well, go to the border and guard it!"

Xiao Yechen looked at Leng Yan, there was a faint chill of warning in his words, and after hearing this, Leng Yan immediately agreed.

Seeing Leng Yan leaving, Du Yan sat opposite Xiao Yechen, her face was a little solemn: "Your Majesty, since Cheng Xiaoyan has fled, if the Yuan and Chen families get the news, maybe they will also flee, let's act earlier." ”

"Yan'er has a point."

Xiao Yechen nodded, he reached out and gently held Du Yan's hand, and only after a long time did he say: "Since this is the decision, then I will immediately send a letter to Ming Xun and ask him to lead the troops to surround the Yuan and Chen families." ”

The Yuan family outside the palace, Yuan Yan, the head of the Yuan family, and Chen Xiao, the head of the Chen family, all had solemn faces, and they looked at the dead man kneeling on the ground, and their hearts were full of anxiety.

"How's that okay?" Chen Xiao

Looking at Yuan Yan, he kept pacing in the study with his hands in his hands, his eyes were full of anger, "Cheng Xiaoyan, this slut, actually left Beijing ahead of schedule!" What do we do now? The emperor is already sending someone to investigate, and sooner or later it will be investigated on our heads! ”

"If I knew, I wouldn't have asked you to come over today!" Yuan Yan was angry, and when he heard Chen Xiao ask like this, the expression on his face suddenly changed, and he said coldly: "For today's plan, the only way to go is to go!" ”

"Do you really want to leave?" Chen Xiao looked reluctant.

Yuan Yan glanced at Chen Xiao coldly, how could he be willing to leave this huge family business behind, but the most important thing at the moment was to save the lives of the whole clan, so he said in a deep voice: "If you want to end up like the Cheng family, then stay here!" ”

As early as when he cooperated with Cheng Xiaoyan, he had already ordered to go down, although he left the capital now, he couldn't live the same life as before, but it was enough for a family to survive well, he had even chosen an address, they were incognito in the mountains, and after two dynasties, their Yuan family could become a generation of families!
