75. Out of the palace
"Little Lord, where did this secret passage come from?" Ah Chou looked at her in surprise, there was a mysterious secret passage in the attic of this Ningxin Palace, and she had never known about it.
"This is what I stumbled upon, hurry up!"
"But, little lord, before leaving, the emperor told Ziling to protect you, if you leave like this, if something happens, the emperor will definitely blame."
"Less verbose!" Ning Su pulled Ah Chou and immediately entered the secret passage together, and she left a letter for Li Ziling, telling him not to leak this matter.
Walk through the secret passage and avoid the surveillance of the guards.
When they came out, it suddenly became clear that they were under a hill, and in front of them was a flat farmland.
In order to facilitate travel, Ning Su and Ah Chou both changed into men's clothes, brought some silver and a few large silver tickets, and a stack of small silver tickets.
In order to prevent the guards from catching up, they hired an inconspicuous pony carriage as soon as they came out and left the capital as fast as they could.
At this time, Li Ziling, who was in the palace, got the news and was taken aback.
"These two women are really ......" Li Ziling was speechless, one was his fiancΓ©e, and the other was the wife of the emperor's brother.
He was extremely depressed, but the news of the imperial concubine's stealing could not be spread, if it did, it would definitely cause greater waves, and even bring danger to Ning Su and Ah Chou's lives.
He immediately ordered the palace maids of Ningxin Palace to keep secrets, and said that Ning Concubine went to Huangjue Temple to pray for the emperor, and he secretly ordered the secret guards to look for them on the roads from the capital to the northern Xinjiang.
After Ning Su and Ah Chou left the palace, they were very fast. They rode in carriages during the day and stayed in hotels at night, and did not show up much, and in three days, they arrived at a place called Geli Town, about three hundred miles from the northern frontier of the Tianyuan Dynasty. The coachman put them in the town of Gerry and refused to go forward, because it was too close to the dog to go further on the border of the town of Gerry, and it was very dangerous.
However, if Ning Su and Ah Chou wanted to reach the Heavenly Sword Pass, which was guarded by the Tian Yuan army, they had to pass through this chaotic land of three hundred miles.
"Childe, let's have a good night's rest first, and then we will do it tomorrow." Ah Chou said to Ning Su that when they went out, they were all wearing men's clothes, so Ah Chou called Ning Su a son.
Ning Su nodded and got out of the carriage, she was dressed in a light cyan robe, her long, jet-black hair was tied high with a jade crown, she looked handsome and graceful, and the jade tree was in the wind.
The town of Gerry is remote, and the customs are close to barbarians, where to see such delicate characters, they walk on the road, causing passers-by to turn back frequently, as if there are countless eyes staring at them.
They deliberately ignored the strange eyes, picked up an inn that looked clean, went in and asked for a table, and ordered a few side dishes.
The shopkeeper is a thin man with a sharp face and monkey cheeks, squinting at the two of them for a long time, which makes people very uncomfortable.
"Tsk, this table is really ......" Obnoxious green-headed flies swirled around them.
Ah Chou frowned, they all came out of the palace, and they all came from the capital all the way to pick up clean places to live, where have they ever seen such a pickled environment? It's just that in this Gerry Town, along the way, only this one is quite good.
Ah Chou waved it with his sleeve to drive the flies away, and took a handkerchief to wipe the table well, and saw that the handkerchief was already covered with oil and putty, where could it still be used, so he had to throw it away.
The shopkeeper personally brought the tea, his eyes glanced at the handkerchief, and he smiled: "What about the good Su embroidered handkerchief, don't want it, the small one can be taken away." β
Ning Su frowned.
Ah Chou hurriedly stretched out his hand and took back the veil, and said, "Who said no?" Hurry up and serve the food, we're starving to death! β
The shopkeeper pursed his lips, snorted, and left.
After he left, Ah Chou whispered: "This is the handkerchief used by our women, even if you don't want it, you can't let that kind of pickled old man collect it, hum!" β
This is also what Ning Su meant, as soon as he thought of the lewd man holding the things he had used, he felt goosebumps.
"It's not like a good place." Ning Su said in a low voice, his eyes swept around flexibly. There are two guys in this shop, one is the shopkeeper, and they all squint at people, and the people who look at them are hairy.
"When the shopkeeper came, he took a look at our baggage several times," said the ugly, "I'm afraid it's a black shop, change land?" β
Ning Su shook his head: "It's not necessarily better than here, let's stay first, let's stay for one night and leave tomorrow morning." β
Ugly nodded.
Soon, the dish came up, and it looked like it was pickled in this shop, Ning Su lowered his head and smelled the smell, there was no smell, and nodded. The two of them barely ate a few bites and then entered the guest room.
The two of them were so tired that they couldn't take care of much, so they went to sleep after a little washing.
In the middle of the night, Ugly woke up hungry, but heard the sound of rustling outside the door.
She immediately jumped up and quietly dressed.
She woke up Ning Su, Ning Su rubbed her eyes in a daze, and immediately woke up when she saw Ah Chou, Ah Chou pointed out the door, she listened carefully, and also heard the voice.
Ugly tiptoed lightly and walked behind the door, hearing the sound of the door opening.
Ugly pulled Ning Su over, and the two of them hid behind the door at the same time.
In a few moments, the door was opened from the outside, and it seemed that he was a repeat offender.
A dark shadow slipped in, and the ugly saw through the crack in the door, and there was a wind outside the door.
The dark shadow was holding a sword in his hand, and from time to time a flash or two of light flashed in the darkness.
Ning Su's heart was raised in her throat, but fortunately, Ah Ugly was right in front of her, so she wasn't too afraid.
I saw that the black shadow poked hard at the quilt by the faint light, but he felt that there was an emptiness, and he immediately threw the quilt on his body, only to know that the bed was empty, and immediately scolded: "Damn! I actually ran away! β
"Who are you scolding?" Ah Chou slammed the door shut, and shut the wind-bearer outside.
The black shadow was taken aback, and immediately raised his sword to slash it, and the ugly took out something from his sleeve and stabbed it on the man's shoulder with a "whoosh".
"Whew!" The man shouted, "Come in and save me!" There are masters here! β
As soon as the man outside the door heard this, he immediately kicked in the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he didn't expect Ning Su to hold a big stick, and hit the door of the person's head with a stick, and staggered over.
Ugly lit a candle, isn't that black shadow the thin shopkeeper?
The shopkeeper saw that Ah Chou was so fierce and was about to escape, but she kicked him to the ground, stepped on his face, and scolded: "I think you are blind!" Dare to come to fight the autumn wind, it's really impatient! β
"Grandma spare your life! Grandma spares her life! The shopkeeper begged for mercy.
Ning Su was taken aback and asked, "Do you know that we are women?" β
The shopkeeper blinked his small eyes and said: "Two aunts and grandmothers, our town is a well-known villain town, and none of the people in the town have committed crimes, either exiled or fleeing for their lives, if you can't even see the two of you, the rivers and lakes are really in vain!" β
"Villain Town?!"
Ning Su and Ah Chou looked at each other, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
At this time, I suddenly heard a bright outside, and the voice of the person suddenly rose up.
"What happened?" Ning Su hurriedly pushed open the window to look, only to see that the sky in the east was fiery red, and there were bursts of shouts from there.
"Ahh The shopkeeper exclaimed, "Run! The real villain is coming! If we don't run, we're all going to suffer! Those are all robbers who fight with open fire and rob houses, even if we are villains, we can't win! After saying that, he endured the sharp pain in his shoulder, got up from the ground, and fled in a puff of smoke.
"Quick, bring the baggage!" Ning Su hurriedly said, this wicked person ran so fast, it can be seen that the comer is not good, and they also hurry away.
When they got out of the room, they found that the entire inn was empty, and both the guests and the guys, except for one who was unlucky enough to faint, had fled without a trace.
They got to the main entrance of the inn and stuck out their heads to look out, and wow! Oh, my God! I saw a group of robbers on horseback carrying large swords and open flames everywhere to kill people and set fires, but anyone who saw them fleeing came on horseback and stabbed them.
Ah Chou pulled Ning Su and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, let's go through the back door." β
As the two were talking, they saw a man run up to them, followed by a robber on horseback and stabbed him, and immediately blood splattered, and the man's head rolled to the two men with a gurgling head.
When the bearded robber saw the two of them, he immediately jumped off his horse and galloped over.
"Run!"
A small maple leaf dart flew over, but was dodged by the robber.
"Damn, he's a master!" Ah Chou was taken aback, scolded in his heart, and quickly pulled Ning Su away.
When the robber arrived, the door slammed shut, touching the ash of his nose.
"Nima! Open the door to Lao Tzu, you two sissy guys, get out of here! β
The bearded robber smashed the door in the back, and Ah Chou and Ning Su were sweating and hurried to find the back door.
The back door was facing a field, and the two of them immediately opened the door and went out.
At this time, the bearded robber smashed open the door and chased after them, but saw that they had dropped something on the ground when they fled, and it turned out to be a silk handkerchief, but it was a woman's, and there were two pairs of pearl earrings wrapped in it.
The bearded robber's eyes rolled, sissy? Silk Pals? Earring?
As soon as he thought so, it dawned on him that the other robbers followed.
He yelled, "Good news! The two running in front are! Brothers, go and arrest it, tie it up and tie it back to be Mrs. Zhai! β
As soon as the robber heard the excitement of the group, what was most lacking in the north was women, and he immediately rushed out of the back door, holding a big knife, and quickly chased after the two future ladies in front of him.
Ning Su and Ah Chou looked behind them, and couldn't help but secretly complain, that large group of robbers on horseback, the two women who ran on their feet, were obedient and had eight lifetimes of mold, so they would encounter the current situation, right?!
