Chapter 341: The Buddha Statue Secret Path
Li Ping'er saw that Wen Li did not escape smoothly but turned back, knowing that he could not escape from the main gate of the palace, and now the entire imperial city must be strictly guarded.
"Queen Mother, now I am afraid that I can't deal with them with Xi Fengren with this loyal army alone, after all, they control most of the current Western Xia troops, there are as many as 300,000, and if we can borrow reinforcements from Mongolia, it will also be a big help for us. And there happened to be a fine seal Chengjie in the mission, I'm afraid that his father hasn't had time to tell him about the situation on the Western Xia side, if we can get ahead of the curve with his son in exchange, I think he shouldn't dare to mess around. I'm afraid that time waits for no one, and when I go to Mongolia, Cheng Jie has already received the news that he has colluded with other members of the mission to plot a rebellion, and I know that several masters from Nanchu and the son surnamed Jiang will definitely not give in, and I am afraid that Wu Linren, the head of the mission, will be persuaded to negotiate with the Mongols and aim the spearhead at us, and it will be really difficult to do it at that time. Xiang Wenli said anxiously.
Although the princess didn't speak next to her, she was more anxious than anyone else now, the country of Western Xia couldn't be destroyed in her hands, she didn't want to be this sinner for the ages.
Li Ping'er thought about it, looked outside the Buddhist hall through the window to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, locked it again, and bowed in front of the Buddha statue, "Mingde, you have worked hard to create a century-old foundation, but now the Western Xia is in the autumn of critical survival, it is likely that the whole will be left behind, in order to prevent this result from happening, I can only tell Lord Xiang about the secret passage you prepared for the escape of the royal family, and now only he can help us bring the news out and save the entire Western Xia."
Xian Wenli and Princess Xiaoxiang didn't know what the Queen Mother was praying for, so they could only kneel with her. At this time, Li Ping'er also stood up and guided Xian Wenli to the back of the Buddha statue.
"Grandma Huang, why did you bring us here? Do you really believe that this Buddha can take adults out? The princess asked, confused.
"That's right, I really have to rely on the Buddha statue to take him out, and the adults are coming, have you seen the small hole under the Buddha statue?" Li Ping'er pointed her finger, and sure enough, there was a very inconspicuous black hole near the ground at the bottom of the lotus platform of the Buddha statue.
"The Queen Mother forgives Weichen for being stupid, what is this?" Xian Wenli couldn't understand what the Queen Mother wanted him to do.
"You put your finger in and hook it up."
Suspicious, Xiang Wenli put his index finger into the small hole, hooked it hard, and it was really able to hook it, and slowly saw that there was an underground passage in front of them.
"Could it be that this is a secret passage to the outside of the palace?" Princess Xiang Wenli and Princess Xiaoxiang were shocked, there was still this secret hidden in this Buddhist hall, not only did the Lord Xiang, who had never entered the harem, know this secret, but even Princess Xiaoxiang, who often went in and out of this Buddhist hall to play, did not notice that there was still a mechanism here.
They all wanted to hear the Queen Mother's explanation, Li Ping'er took out a pair of sheepskin maps from the tablet in front of the Buddha statue and handed it to Xian Wenli, "Now is not the time to let you know this, the situation is critical, I can only make a long story short, this is the underground passage built by the former king in case the imperial city is captured by thieves." You must think that this is a direct gateway to the outside of the palace, but wrong, this place can lead directly to the outside of the city! ”
Princess Xiaoxiang and Xiang Wenli gasped and went out of the city? Starting at the Royal Palace? What a huge project! Now is not the time to explore how to get up early, Xian Wenli hurriedly took the sheepskin map given by the Queen Mother, and the princess and the Queen Mother instructed him a few more words to let him enter and reopen the secret door.
"The future of Western Xia depends on whether these two brothers can successfully complete these two things!" The Queen Mother looked at Xiang Wenli, who was slowly crawling inside without hesitation, and said expectantly.
"It will definitely succeed, we must not waste the emperor's hard work to protect the country of Western Xia. It's time for me to do something about it. Listening to the sound of the noisy soldiers' armor outside the door, the sound of them patrolling and watching the harem as they walked, the princess was determined to do something to prepare before reinforcements arrived. For example, it was found that this little prince was not of the orthodox blood of Western Xia......
The Western Xia side has already changed dramatically, and the Mongolian side is indeed a different situation. Tian Khan Temugetu because Lu Xiaoyu successfully helped him find his daughter and Jiang Ge rescued Princess Siqin without hesitation, and now there is no land khan around to bewitch him again, so he resolutely decided to temporarily abandon the alliance with the Khitan, and instead agreed to form an alliance with Western Xia, and after discussing with Lu Xiaoyu, he wanted to form an alliance with the Flying Tiger Army of Southern Chu.
With this experience, none of the Mongolian ministers dared to raise objections anymore, and the ministers who were originally on the side of Zamuhe also turned to Temugetu at this time. After all, Temugetu had the demeanor of a general, and directly those ministers who instigated Zamuhe to rebel and plotted against him, he only persuaded them to go home to graze and retire on the grounds that they were old or unsuitable for the Mongol court. How could these people not understand Temugetu's intentions, knowing that he had spared himself was already grateful to Dade for having nothing else to ask for.
In the past few days, Princess Siqin has come to take care of the seriously injured Jiang Ge whenever she has time, which also saves Lu Xiaoyu and them from having to focus on taking care of Jiang Ge, don't be a light bulb for the two of them, and go to the grassland to ride a horse and run around the door.
"Big brother, do you think Brother Jiang and Princess Siqin can make it?" Lu Xiaoyu is obviously much more experienced in horseback riding now, and he rode a black horse galloping on the grassland and asked Lu Xiaoyu beside him.
Yang Xiangwu interjected on the other side of him: "I look at the hang, this kid has rejected Tian Khan's proposal to make him a concubine in front of so many people before, which has already disgraced the Mongolian royal family." Now if you want to match a pair with the princess in reverse, isn't this a clear trick? The princess of the royal family is something you don't want if you want it. ”
"As far as you old man talk a lot, I didn't ask you, I don't think you have solved your own thing, so let's talk about others. After all, Brother Bao is a person who has come over, he has married the daughter-in-law of the county lord and a wife who has not passed through the door, he knows more about these things than us, you let him say that it can't be done. Lu Xiaoyu habitually raised the bar with Yang Xiangwu.
Yang Xiangwu didn't care about what Lu Xiaoyu said, Lu Xiaoyu heard Lu Xiaoyu talk about the love of men and women, and thought of the two women Chen Qingyan and Xiong Zhen'er who were messy with him, alas, where did the two of them go, now the whole world is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is too difficult to find them. I just want to finish this matter quickly, go to Goguryeo and see if I can find Xiong Zhen'er there first.
