Chapter 392: Escape Plan
Zhao Yan heard from Yinniang that Xu Dezu was preparing for the wedding for Kong, but the strange thing was that he didn't know who the bride was yet, and Li Kong didn't seem to care much about this matter, just lowered his head to eat, Yan Yuru was worried that the eldest brother was in a bad mood, so he didn't ask more.
Finally waited until after eating, Yinniang put away the dishes and chopsticks, according to the calculation of three meals a day, they should have eaten dinner just now, so after Zhao Yan and Likong played a few games, they wanted to go to sleep, but before he could speak, Likong suddenly glanced at him, which made Zhao Yan stunned, and he didn't say anything at the moment, still playing chess with him.
After a few more rounds like this, Yan Yuru was a little sleepy, and immediately said: "Big brother, the king of the county, don't play too late, I'll go rest first!" ”
"Well, we'll rest after this round!" Li Kong said with a smile, Zhao Yan also smiled and nodded, and then Yan Yuru turned around and returned to his room, and only Zhao Yan and Li Kong were left in the side hall.
"What can be said now!" Zhao Yan pretended to be casual while playing chess, he knew that with Xu Dezu's character, there must be people watching them around the side hall, but now they are located in the middle of the side hall, and the surroundings are very empty, as long as they speak quietly, they don't have to worry about others hearing it.
"We're going to find a way to get out!" He stretched out his hand and pushed a chess piece, and also whispered as if nothing had happened.
"How to escape, there are only three of us, but there are more than a hundred guards outside, and Yuru and I don't even have the power to protect ourselves, unless you are the overlord alive, it is absolutely impossible for us to escape." Zhao Yan said indifferently.
"Escaping is not a hard fight with them, as long as you can find an opportunity, you can naturally escape."
"There is a chance, and that is that when they want to send us overseas, it will take at least a month along the way, and then there will be more chances to escape." Zhao Yan whispered again.
"That's a good opportunity, but there's another opportunity in front of you, and that's to take advantage of this opportunity to get married." But he said with a strange smile.
"Marriage?" Zhao Yangang picked up a pawn's hand and paused slightly, then took a step forward and said, "This is an opportunity, but Xu Dezu is extremely shrewd, he will definitely take strict precautions against you that day, are you sure you can find a chance to escape?" ”
"Even if we can't find a chance, we can create a chance, and I also have an internal response in the underground palace." Sora smiled indifferently again, but a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.
Hearing Kong's words, Zhao Yan couldn't help but pause in surprise again, then looked up at him and said slowly: "Now I have finally determined one thing." ”
"What's the matter?" Sora asked strangely.
"You are really Xu Dezu's son, even the style of doing things is so similar, he planted a spy around you, and you in turn arranged people around him." Zhao Yan lowered his head and joked with a light smile, no wonder Sora proposed to escape, it turned out that he still had such a hole card.
Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Likong said with a helpless wry smile: "With such a terrible father, I also have to learn some means, not to mention that I have been able to avoid the influence of the Yin and Netherworld over the years, in addition to the protection of the Buddhism, it is also inseparable from my own efforts, and even so, I often have to hide in other places." ”
"I see, others thought you liked to travel all over the world, but they didn't expect that there would be such hardships." Zhao Yan couldn't help but sigh when he heard Kong's words, if he hadn't heard it with his own ears, I'm afraid he wouldn't have believed it.
"What's your plan for escaping?" Zhao Yan then asked again.
"My Nei Ying is one of the relatively high status in the Netherworld, and I have a lot of important information in my hands, I have obtained a map of the dungeon from her, the map shows that there is a dark river crossing through the dungeon where we are, and the sewage in the dungeon is usually discharged from this dark river, my Nei Ying has prepared a small boat in the dark river, as long as we can enter the dark river, we can escape by boat." The empty pushed the chess piece again.
"Dark River? Where is the entrance? Zhao Yan couldn't help but ask a little excitedly when he heard the news.
"There are several entrances, but most of them are far away, the nearest one is located after the main hall where my grandfather's body is kept, and on the day of marriage, the wedding will definitely be held in the main hall, and then I will set a fire in the palace, so that we can escape to the main hall while we are in chaos, and then we can escape into the dark river, which leads directly to the underground river where we came in, and the river is strong and has many branches, plus there is no daylight, as long as we can escape some distance, then we are safe." He explained his plan, which he had been thinking about in his heart for many days, and it could be said that he was at least fifty percent sure.
After hearing this, Zhao Yan also pondered, and after a long time, he spoke: "Although this plan is risky, it is also worth trying, but you won't be able to spend your wedding night empty." ”
Hearing Zhao Yan's final ridicule, Likong couldn't help but show a wry smile again, but at this time, Zhao Yan suddenly thought of another question, and then said: "Likong, did you tell your bride who it is, now there are people preparing for the wedding outside, but Yinniang doesn't know the identity of the bride, isn't it a little too strange?" ”
When he heard that Zhao Yan was still concerned about the so-called bride at this time, he couldn't help but cry and laugh at the moment: "I don't know who the bride is, Nei Ying said that the bride was personally selected by that person, and no one knows except himself, but no matter who this groom is, I won't marry her!" ”
"Wait a minute, the identity of this bride is so mysterious, and Xu Dezu knows about you and my second sister, should he take my second sister here as well, and then let you get married?" Zhao Yan suddenly thought of a possibility at this time, and said with worry and anger at the moment, if it was really Princess Bao'an, then their trouble would be even greater.
"Impossible, that person has promised the county king before that he will not touch your relatives around you, the princess is your own sister, it is impossible for him not to consider the county king's reaction, after all, the county king, you are his greatest hope for the restoration of the country, so unless it is a last resort, he will never anger the county king." When he heard Zhao Yan's words, he shook his head calmly and said.
"If that's the case, that's the best." Zhao Yan nodded when he heard Kong's analysis, although he knew that his guess was likely to be wrong, he was still a little worried in his heart.
Next, Zhao Yan and Likong discussed the details of the escape plan again, and when they all felt that there was nothing more to add to this plan, they returned to their respective rooms to rest satisfied.
In the next two days, Zhao Yan asked Yinniang every day about the preparations for the wedding, which was not a secret, so Yinniang also told the truth, which also made Zhao Yan know the layout of the wedding outside, and the empty side was already ready, just waiting for the wedding to come.
After lunch on this day, Zhao Yan just learned from Yinniang that the wedding arrangements outside had been completed, and the wedding could be held at any time, but Xu Dezu was still keeping the bride's candidate a secret, and the entire underground palace never knew anything except him.
According to the previous habits, Zhao Yan and the empty time after eating, then play chess to kill time, Yan Yuru next to them with a set of tea sets to make tea for them, speaking of the Northern Song Dynasty during this period tea leaves are ground and then added with many ingredients, and finally mixed into a strange taste, at the beginning of the year is definitely not used to it, but slowly drink more, but it also has a different flavor.
"General!" Zhao Yan jumped the horse and shouted, his biggest gain in the past few days is that his chess skills have risen sharply, and now he only lets him have a horse and a cannon, he can win and lose with the other party, if it is closed for a while, maybe he will not have to let himself play chess again.
"Haha, the king of the county is too happy too early, eat!" What Zhao Yan never expected was that Likong had already prepared an ambush, and as soon as his horse became a general, the empty cannon flew over and ate his horse.
"Ouch, no, no, I was wrong just now, let's take a step back and come back!" Zhao Yan immediately played tricks when he saw this, he had lost five or six games in a row this morning, and this game seemed to have the upper hand, if this horse was missing, the shape would immediately be very unfavorable to him.
"Haha, there are no regrets about falling chess, don't be a villain, it's your next step, go quickly!" Likong laughed and said, Zhao Yan's chess skills and chess products are the same bad, if it is placed in normal times, he is absolutely unwilling to play chess with Zhao Yan.
"Just take a step back, don't be too stingy!" Zhao Yan still said cheekily.
"No, no, no, I've already let you shoot a horse, and I must not let it again this time!" The empty is also very tough.
Seeing Zhao Yan and Likong arguing over a move of chess, Yan Yuru next to him couldn't help but smile and said: "Big brother, just let the king of the county go, he finally gained the upper hand, and this time he will not kill you, with your chess strength, you still have a chance to win." ”
Hearing Yan Yuru's persuasion, Likong finally returned the chess pieces to Zhao Yan, and then said helplessly: "They all say that they are the foreign ministers of girls, and this time I, the eldest brother, have finally seen it." ”
When Yan Yuru heard the words "girl's foreign minister", her face suddenly turned red, and at the same time, she glared at the empty air in shame and said: "Big brother likes to talk nonsense, this time the tea is not your share!" ”
However, as soon as Yan Yuru's words fell, he suddenly saw the door of the side hall being opened, and then Xu Dezu, who was happy, strode in, followed by Yinniang and several other young women, but at this time, Yinniang's face was pale, and even her whole body was trembling slightly, as if she had encountered something extremely frightening.
