Chapter 259: Rescue Achieved

"Commander, the hour has come, let's wait to close the secret passage!" In the hall of the Bishan Courtyard, everyone stared nervously at the tunnel, expecting General Wei to successfully withdraw with the mask armor army, but also worried about whether the Xiliang army would come out of the tunnel.

"No! Father, wait for a stick of incense! The general will definitely succeed! Ren Hongchang stood up and stopped. After the rescue operation began, Ren Hongchang stayed in another courtyard because he was not good at martial arts.

From a personal point of view, Ren Zhong agreed with his daughter's opinion and waited for He Xian. But as a soldier, He Xian once gave him an order that when the hour came, the secret passage would be blocked...... He set his sights on Empress Dowager He. Now that Liu Wei, the king of Hongnong, is delirious, Empress Dowager He is the supreme commander here.

Empress Dowager He was a little hesitant. She is not ungrateful, but she is also not a soft-hearted person, a woman who can fight in the harem, who does not have a ruthless moment. After thinking about it for a while, Empress Dowager He made up her mind. For Liu Wei's safety, she can't take too many risks. She was ready to let Ren Zhong do what he planned and close the secret passage.

"Report~" Suddenly, an embroidered messenger appeared outside the door of the hall and knocked on the door to say: "My lord, there is a person outside the courtyard who asks to see him, claiming to be the old man of the Queen Mother!" ”

"The deceased?" Empress Dowager He was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's his name?" ”

"Someone called himself, Liaodong Wang Yue!"

When Empress Dowager He heard the name of "Wang Yue", she stood up suddenly, and walked out: "Hurry up, please!" ”

Wang Yue's arrival made Empress Dowager He forget to give the order to block the secret passage. Ren Zhong was a little embarrassed and wanted to ask, but was stopped by Ren Hongchang: "Father, just wait a while!" ”

Ren Zhong wanted to speak and stopped, and finally gave up calling the Empress Dowager He, and instead told the embroidered messenger: "All cheer up, if the Xiliang Army chases, we will jump into the secret passage to block!" Hongchang, you are responsible for locking the secret door! ”

"I ......" Ren Hongchang didn't think of his request, but he might let his father take his life, and he was speechless for a while.

"Xiao Ying... Grass people Wang Yue, see the Queen Mother! In the side hall of the courtyard, Wang Yue finally saw the Queen Mother He Ying, who was in his heart, and was very excited.

"The righteous don't have to be polite!" After confirming Wang Yue's identity, Empress Dowager He forcibly endured the unrest in her heart, waved her hand, and dismissed all the idle people outside the side hall. The accompanying palace maids and eunuchs left quickly, closed the door, and only Empress Dowager He and Wang Yue were left in the side hall. Empress Dowager He bowed to Wang Yue Yingying and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, is the little uncle okay?" ”

This time, time seems to go back to 20 years ago. That year, Empress Dowager He was not the Empress Dowager, she was just a girl named He Ying, living in Wancheng, Nanyang, looking forward to what her future husband would be like. That year, Wang Yue was not a hero of Liaodong, he was just a swordsman who had just completed his swordsmanship, and he came to Nanyang Wancheng to find his senior brother He Zhen on the order of his teacher!

Fate made the two young people meet and fall in love, and it was also fate that separated the two. Wang Yue went to the grassland to carry out the mission of assassinating the Xiongnu Shan Yu, but there was no news. He Ying was heartbroken and obeyed her father's orders to enter the palace.

When he heard the news again, Wang Yue had become a hero in Liaodong and was famous all over the world. But so what? He Ying has become the emperor's woman, and she is a concubine...

"I've infiltrated the palace several times since I came from the grassland... Helplessly, the palace is heavily guarded, and there are many palaces, and you are never found. Later, I heard that you gave birth to a prince for the emperor and won the favor, so I left the Central Plains and went to the northern land... A few years ago, I was summoned by Senior Brother He and knew that you were not doing well, so I went back to the mainland and founded the Hero Building in Luoyang to do something for you. I thought it would be rare to see you again in this life, but I didn't expect He Xian to really rescue you from the palace..."

The Queen Mother He Ying quietly listened to Wang Yue's narration, and at this moment, the years stood still.

Different from the beauty in the side hall, for the people in the hall who are looking at the secret passage, every minute and second of time is a worrying wait.

"There's movement! Someone's coming! The embroidered messenger who was in charge of listening to the movements in the ground finally reported, and everyone was shocked. Whether the comer is friend or foe will be seen!

"How many?" Ren Zhong asked urgently.

"Probably...... There are hundreds. ”

"Hundreds?" Ren Zhong couldn't believe that He Xian could really bring back most of the mask armor army. In his opinion, those people are the same as him, they are all dead soldiers, and it is good to be able to come back dozens of people! Ren Zhong took a deep breath and ordered the embroidered messengers on the left and right: "You two will go down to the tunnel with me and wait!" Hongchang, listen to my order to lock the tunnel door at any time, you must not hesitate, do you hear? ”

Ren Hongchang was teary-eyed and refused to answer, Ren Zhong asked again in an accentuated tone, and Ren Hongchang nodded.

"Who's coming?" Ren Zhong jumped down the secret passage, pulled out the saber at his waist, and shouted.

"Commander, it's me, He Xian!" In the distance of the secret passage, there was a familiar voice from He Xian and He Xian.

Of the armoured sergeants brought back by Ho Xian, 277 were able to walk on their own, 39 were seriously wounded, and 7 corpses were killed on the way here.

The return of He Xian and others also alarmed the Empress Dowager He and Wang Yue in the side hall.

"Uncle, can Dong thief be beheaded?" Seeing Shunli Wang Yue, He Xian's eyes lit up.

Wang Yue shook his head and said, "It's a failure!" Dong Thief is well defended, Lu Bu is brave, and his martial arts are not under me! ”

Hearing the conversation between the two, everyone knew that Wang Yue had actually assassinated Dong Zhuo, and he was able to escape with his whole body. Although it did not succeed, it was enough to make everyone present admire. Empress Dowager He looked at Wang Yue's eyes full of tenderness that could not be concealed.

"Uncle doesn't need to mind! Dong thief perversely, time will not be long! Let him live a few more days! He Xian was a little disappointed, but he was prepared for this ending. The first strongman in the early Han Dynasty was really lucky, how could it be so simple to be harmonized? Since Wang Yue, the number one swordsman in the world, can't assassinate Dong Zhuo, then this life can only be handed over to Lu Fengxian! If Lu Bu can protect him, he can naturally kill him!

After simply healing the wounded mask armor army, everyone embarked on the road to flee to Nanyang. The one in charge of receiving it was a horse-selling caravan from Zhongshan, and the extra armor sergeants were disguised as accompanying escorts, and they stepped on their horses and quickly headed in the direction of Yique Pass.

The documents for customs clearance, Ren Zhong had already prepared them, and he still used the cipher text of the embroidered messenger, His Majesty's jade seal. Such customs clearance documents can be passed unimpeded throughout Dahan. Therefore, when LΓΌ Bu hurried to Yique Pass, the caravan had already left the pass and headed south, successfully avoiding the pursuit. Out of Yique Pass, the sky is high and the earth is wide, and it will be even more difficult for Lu Bu to chase after him......
