Under the hazy sky, the fog of the early morning has not completely dissipated, and it faintly permeates the palace rooms.

Miaojin stood on the pedestal of the prayer temple, looked over the wall of the small courtyard, and suddenly saw a touch of red rushing towards this side. Looking at the red figure from a distance, I don't think he is fast, it is gradually approaching, but it is also very fast to run on foot. Miaojin felt that the figure was very familiar at first sight.

Miao Jin was suddenly shocked in her heart and remembered Gao Xu!

Only a short moment later, she really saw that the person was the Han King Gao Xu! Miaojin's heart was a little dazed, and the whole person froze for a moment, and then heard the heartbeat "dong dong" sound directly.

Miao Jin couldn't understand why Gao Xu would come to the Blessing Temple now, she was very surprised.

In case there is nothing important in the palace, Gao Xu comes straight to her, how to explain it to the emperor? But looking at Gao Xu running over, something may have happened! Then what is he running into the dead end of the prayer view?

Miao Jin was stunned for a while and came back to her senses. She quickly lifted the lower panel of her robe a little and walked off the pedestal quickly. When she came to the back of the courtyard gate, she had just taken two steps, and she felt that her legs were inexplicably a little weak.

"Open the door!" Miaojin said to the two eunuchs at the door.

The eunuch immediately blocked the latch with his body and looked at Miaojin vigilantly.

"Bang! Bang! There were two loud bangs on the wooden door. The eunuchs were also a little flustered.

A moment later, there was a loud bang, and the whole gatehouse seemed to have been hit by something huge, and it was almost about to collapse! The latch cracked with a "click". This small wall and gatehouse were built during the construction of the temple of blessings, and the gate is just a thin plank, and of course it will not be as thick as the palace gate.

"Boom!" The second loud bang, the courtyard gate fell directly to one side! The two eunuchs hid quickly and looked out the door with a look of horror.

"Huh, huh, hu......h, huh" In the gasp, Zhu Gaoxu's tall body trotted in, his panting sound was very rhythmic, the inhaling sound was long, and the exhalation sound came out of his mouth short and powerful, maintaining a very even speed.

On a midsummer morning, although there was no scorching sun on a cloudy day, it was a little stuffy, and Zhu Gaoxu's face was covered with sweat. A distant but familiar faint smell came to his face, and Miaojin stood in front of him like a dream.

"Quick, follow me!" Zhu Gaoxu said, his voice is neither fast nor slow, there is no fluctuation, and the voice is not loud. As he spoke, he continued to breathe at a rhythm, and the pace under his feet did not stop, and the appearance of running in place was a little weird.

Miaojin came back to her senses at this time, and she found that Gao Xu's gaze was hot, like a tangible light, sweeping over her face, chest, and waist. Zhu Gaoxu glanced at her, raised his eyes and looked at the palace wall more than three zhang high in the east, and immediately turned around and trotted out of the door.

His eyes seemed to have a thousand words, but at this moment he only said a few words, and he didn't say anything. Except for the look in his face, the look on his face was very steady, almost expressionless; The body is running and moving, but it seems that every piece of fine meat maintains a certain even rhythm, and it is very orderly and unflustered.

Miaojin was still confused about the situation in her heart, but somehow, when she saw Gao Xu at a glance, she was not afraid?!

There was no reason, no reason to convince her, the breath, demeanor, movements, tone of voice emanating from every pore on Zhu Gaoxu's body, and even the rhythmic and even panting, made Miaojin feel at ease in an instant. It was a magical moment.

Miaojin subconsciously obeyed Gao Xu's words and ran out with him.

She finally raised her voice and said in a trembling voice, "Why did King Han come here? ”

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly turned around and ran in front of Miaojin, bent down and lifted the hem of her robe, grabbed the lower corner of the robe with his big strong hand, and stuffed it into her belt with his mighty hand. He straightened up and said, "I'm afraid of regretting it." ”

As he spoke, he turned around again and said, "Run as hard as you can!" ”

The two of them ran together towards the mezzanine road to the west, after all, there was only one way to go from the Blessing Temple. They quickly ran past the Great Good Hall, and at once they reached the end of the mezzanine, and went out through an open door with timber trimming, which was the north end of an empty brick field.

Inside the high palace wall to the west are the three main halls of the palace, so there is an open space outside the wall where there is no place to hide.

As soon as Miao Jin ran out of the door, he saw the little eunuch Wang Yin standing outside, his face was pale, and he looked panicked and at a loss.

"Ding-ding-clang......" She also heard the sound of metal grinding against each other. While running, Miaojin turned his head to the left when he heard the sound, and his heart was suddenly shocked.

A group of armor soldiers are trotting north to catch up! No wonder Gao Xu was in a hurry just now, and he didn't even say a word!

Miaojin understood in an instant that there was a group of stubborn and stubborn armor soldiers chasing Zhu Gaoxu; But when Zhu Gaoxu fled to this side, he actually ran back and forth to Qifuguan to pick her up.

Miaojin was really convinced of Gao Xu, he was chased all over the ground, his life was in danger, he was being approached by the chasing soldiers every moment, and he actually took care of coming to her. Gao Xu is like crazy!

After a while, she was even more surprised, why were there armor soldiers in the palace? In normal times, it would be impossible for a soldier to run around in this position in the palace.

It's messy! It's messy! Miaojin was completely confused, not knowing what was going on.

"Boy, what are you doing standing stupidly?" Zhu Gaoxu shouted. The little eunuch Wang Yin also hurriedly followed.

The three of them ran desperately together, and continued to run dozens of steps to the west, and came to the door of the Fengxian Hall. At this time, not only could you hear the crash of the armor of those armored soldiers running, but you could also hear the sound of panting like a cow, which was so close!

"Get in!" Zhu Gaoxu said succinctly like a captain giving orders.

Miao Jin trusted him and didn't want to run in the door with anything. She glanced behind her and saw that one of the armorers had a bow and arrows in his hand, and they were clearly within range of the arrows.

A soldier shouted, "The Fengxian Hall is forbidden to enter, so stop!" ”

Fortunately, those people in heavy armor were panting and rushing towards this side, unable to draw their bows and arrows. Rao is Miaojin doesn't know how to shoot arrows, and he also knows that it takes a lot of strength to pull a military bow, and it is not easy to pull a bow and shoot arrows while running.

And Miaojin also came back to his senses at this time, this is the Fengxian Palace! It is dedicated to the ancestors of the royal Zhu family! Even if those people tore their faces, without the order of an important person, the soldiers did not seem to dare to easily fire arrows at the Fengxian Palace.

The three of them hurried into the gate, and sure enough, the armor soldiers still hadn't released their arrows. There was a "crunch" sound, and when Zhu Gaoxu quickly opened the door and closed it, the people outside were already very close!

Miaojin gasped for breath as she felt her chest rise and fall, and her heart felt like it was about to pound out of her body.

She heard the sound of the latch hanging up, still in shock. I couldn't imagine that they were almost caught up by a group of armor soldiers in that moment...... If they had said a few more words, stayed a little longer, or ran a little slower, they would have been caught up just now.

Of course, Zhu Gaoxu can't pinch the time so accurately, he can only rely on estimates, and he is taking big risks. When he decided to take the risk of going to the Blessing Temple to delay for a while, I wonder if he ever felt scared in his heart? Do you feel scared now?

Maybe he can't care about the future, because the current situation is still dangerous.

There were only two eunuchs in the gate, staring at Zhu Gaoxu with round eyes, looking at the beard on his mouth and the dragon robe on his body, he didn't even say a word. Looking at the stunned looks of the two eunuchs, it was obvious that they had no idea what was going on.

It is true that there should be no people in this temple, because this place is not inhabited, but a place where ancestors are worshipped. Members of the Ming royal family worship their ancestors, and they will go to the Taimiao Temple when there is a grand and huge ceremony; And small festivals and family affairs such as the canonization of the harem, only to come to the ancestral hall to tell the ancestors in the spirit of the sky, equivalent to the family temple. Normally, when there is nothing to do, except for the palace people who are in charge of cleaning, no one will come to this place to worship the dead.

At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu's voice said, "Go to the palace!" He glanced at the wall, which was just over a man high.

The three of them just entered the gate, and when they came in, there was a courtyard inside, and a wall was built around the Fengxian Hall to isolate it from the outside world; Except for the high wall on the north side, the other three sides are low walls. The two main halls of the Fengxian Hall are directly above the courtyard, and the two large buildings are arranged in the north and south, and they are all independent.

They immediately walked towards the nearest palace gate, and sure enough, someone had already climbed the front wall and jumped straight down! The man immediately went to open the courtyard door.

At this time, Miaojin and Zhu Gaoxu and the other three had already rushed into the main hall.

The three of them all came in, and Zhu Gaoxu immediately went to close the temple door. As soon as the thick wooden door was closed, the light in the temple dimmed. There is not even a window in this hall, but fortunately there are many oil lamps and incense nods inside, otherwise it is estimated that the ground will not be clear now.

On the front wall, there are several portraits of emperors and queens wearing gowns. Although Miaojin has never been to the royal family's sacrificial place, she is from a scholarly family after all, and she knows it in her heart...... The people in the portrait are all deceased, not only the Taizu couple, but also the ancestors of several generations. The ancestors of the Taizu were all peasants, and they had never seen what the palace looked like until they died, but now their heroic spirits were already emperors in the yang world.

In the dark palace, the orange and yellow hazy light of the oil lamp shone on those portraits, the atmosphere was very weird, and Miaojin even felt as if there was a yin qi attacking, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

She didn't know what to do, because there were armored soldiers outside, and they were trapped in this temple, and it was simply impossible to fly.

At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly burst into tears and shouted: "Ancestors, ancestors! My ancestor is on top, and the traitors are fighting in front of the spirit, they want to kill their grandchildren, they want to rebel, and they want to overthrow my Daming Jiangshan Sheji! ”

His voice was very loud, and it was deafening in this closed and windowless hall. Miaojin and Wang Yin were both stunned.
