Chapter 6: Escape and Ascension

Looking at the dark and deep secret passage, Xiao Yixuan and Gu'er Besu were both pleasantly surprised, the former was happy that with this secret passage, he could not only escape, but also maybe gain some benefits in the future struggle for imperial power, while the latter felt that he had finally found a way to escape from the palace!

The next moment, I saw Gu'er bel snort with some joy, turned around again and came to the altar, wiped all the remaining dust on it with his sleeve, and then searched carefully, wanting to find out if there was a sign that went straight to the outside of the palace, Xiao Yixuan knew what she was thinking, and did not stop it, seeing that after searching for a long time, she finally found a place marked 'West Market', and was overjoyed at the moment, and was about to start turning the turntable, but at this time Xiao Yixuan grabbed her wrist.

"What are you doing!?"

Gu'er, who finally found hope, was suddenly stopped, and couldn't stop shouting impatiently in his heart, but heard Xiao Yixuan say coldly: "Calm down!" Not to mention that we don't know now whether this 'West Market' is the West Market of the capital outside the palace, even if you successfully go out through the secret passage and there is no outsider to answer you, just with your dress, I am sure that you will be invited back to drink tea by the officials of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division in less than a quarter of an hour on the street! What will happen to you then, think clearly! ”

These words are undoubtedly a basin of cold water for Gu'er Besu, she is not a stupid person, she was only so impatient just now, after Xiao Yixuan said this, she also calmed down, her hands were slightly loose, but in less than a moment, she tightened again, and said unwillingly: "Aren't you the prince of the court?" Finding a few people to pick me up won't be an easy task for you? You promised me that you would send me out of the palace... ”

"You're so stupid!"

Without waiting for Gu'er to finish speaking, Xiao Yixuan smiled bitterly and interrupted him: "Can you think with your head, with your current situation, where do you ask me to find someone to pick you up?" Besides, your courtyard has just been burned, and the people in the palace will definitely rummage through the ruins, there is no body in it, they will definitely think that you have run away privately, even if you find this secret passage, it is not necessarily, and you may be hunted down strictly when the time comes... So let's wait a little longer, it's better to think about it in the long run. ”

Xiao Yixuan said that, he saw Gu'er biting his lip hesitantly, and after a long time, he finally relented, nodded lightly, and let go of his hands that were tightly pressing the roulette.

"Huh? This is... ”

At this moment, Xiao Yixuan suddenly noticed that the place where Gu'er had evacuated with both hands, next to the string marked 'Xishi', there was a name that didn't look like a place name no matter how it looked, and at the same time it was a name that Xiao Yixuan had never seen before. The three words of the hidden dragon', Xiao Yixuan, who had read countless articles in his previous life, almost immediately reflected that this could be something after seeing these three small words, and immediately couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, pointed the roulette pointer to the top, and then turned the jade pendant again, and sure enough, he heard a 'click', a dark grid opened on the side of the altar, and a book-like thing fell out, Xiao Yixuan picked it up in his hand, wiped off the dust, and saw the three big characters of the book on the cover, "Hidden Dragon Decision", which was indeed a secret book!

"There must be benefits for crossing, and I have found a treasure now...

Xiao Yixuan was overjoyed, but before he could take a good look at this hidden dragon, he heard Gu'er exclaim quickly: "Water! Water! Here it comes! ”

"Who did you say was coming?"

Xiao Yixuan raised his head when he heard the sound, but saw that the lake around the platform was rising rapidly for some reason, and he had already flooded the platform as he spoke, and sure enough, the water was coming.

"Let's go!"

didn't have time to think about it, Xiao Yixuan hurriedly pulled Gu'er Besu and plunged into the secret passage not far away, it was wonderful, this secret passage was still dim and dark, but as soon as the two of them came in, a string of torches lit up on both sides of the secret passage, Xiao Yixuan looked around, found a pull ring on the side of the wall, stepped forward and pulled, and the secret door behind him was really 'Kerala' closed, which could block the rising lake from the outside.

"What do we do now?"

Gu'er looked at the secret passage that looked so long that there was no end in sight, and was a little worried.

"What else can I do? Let's get out here and talk about it! ”

Xiao Yixuan pursed his lips and touched the hidden dragon in his arms, but his heart was worried more than he expected.

The secret passage is very long, but the road is not difficult to walk, and the light is sufficient, and the torches on both sides of the secret passage are not known to be controlled by what kind of mechanism, when the two of them are about to walk, they will be lit, and they will be extinguished after walking ten meters, which makes Xiao Yixuan have to sigh the greatness of the wisdom of the ancients.

After half an hour, the gentle angle of the secret passage began to show an upward trend, and it seemed that it was coming to an end, and after walking for another half an hour, Xiao Yixuan and the others finally came to the exit.

This is a very ordinary-looking secret door, Xiao Yixuan knocked on it, and found that it was still wooden, so he and Gu'er glanced at each other and gently opened the door.

The sunlight came in through the crack in the door, and after waiting for a few breaths, he found that there was no sound outside the door, so Xiao Yixuan opened the crack in the door wider, and walked out one after the other with Gu'er.

As soon as he came out, Xiao Yixuan suddenly realized that this was actually the bedroom where he had just stayed in the morning!

And the door of this dark room is a bookcase at the head of his bed disguised, there are not many books on the bookcase, more are some antique treasures, usually except for the palace maid and eunuch who sprinkled and cleaned, no one will deliberately fiddle with it, it is actually placed like this, and no one has found it for many years!

"Where is this?"

Standing still in the room, Gu'er asked quickly, a pair of beautiful eyes lingered all over the room, the gorgeous decoration and placement here really amazed her, and it was also said that she had been trapped in the dilapidated courtyard alone for five years, and had never seen the scene outside the courtyard again, like such a gorgeous decoration, even if she had seen it, it was five years ago.

"My bedroom."

Hearing Gu'er's question, Xiao Yixuan opened his mouth and replied, and then without waiting for the other party to continue to ask questions, he then said: "You stay here, I'll go change my clothes... The matter of Jingxin Yuan is not over yet. ”

Xiao Yixuan came to the side compartment of the bedroom, first took off the clothes on his body and hid them, then hastily scrubbed himself, and changed into a set of clothes that were exactly the same as before, and finally walked out again.

Maybe it's because Xiao Yixuan went out with Xiao Yilian before, Hongyue and Qingqiu, who were supposed to stay here, are long gone, which is a good thing for Xiao Yixuan, otherwise he really can't tell how he got into the room from under their noses.

"Red Moon!"

"Qingqiu!"

Xiao Yixuan pretended to be nothing, stood by the small lake in the courtyard and shouted twice, as soon as the words fell, he saw the door of the wing room where the two palace maids lived in the distance opened suddenly, and the two little palace maids ran over with a panicked face, and came to the front to ask for peace: "Your Royal Highness, Prince, slave, slave... ”

The voices of the two little palace maids trembled, as if they didn't expect Xiao Yixuan to come back so soon, and they couldn't find any better words to explain their laziness, but fortunately, Xiao Yixuan couldn't entangle with them more in this matter, so he waved his hand and said: "Remember, from now on, no one is allowed to step into this room without my permission!" Including the two of you, as well as all the eunuchs and palace maids in the East Palace! ”

After that, Xiao Yixuan rubbed his somewhat swollen forehead, and said, "Go and ask Liu Wengui and a few of them to come over, I want to go out for a walk." ”

"Huh? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't just come back... ”

Hearing this, Hongyue raised her head and wondered, but before she finished speaking, she saw Xiao Yixuan's brows frowning, and swallowed her next words raw, and replied timidly: "Yes... ”
