Chapter 672: The Great Escape
Huo Gao came to the grass pavilion with a serious face, saw Adams, and said with a long sigh, "General, the eldest princess is under house arrest by the crown prince, why don't you still save her?"
Adams didn't answer Huo Gao's question, but asked instead, "How is the situation in Qingyue Palace?"
"The crown prince asked people to besiege the three layers in the Qingyue Palace, and announced to the outside that Chen Lin had kidnapped the princess, and no one knew the specific situation inside."
Adams laughed, "The kite suddenly became smarter"
Huo said in a low voice, "If it weren't for those two old guys to support him, how could he have so much courage?"
Adams said, "He didn't dare to make excessive moves in a short time," as if to comfort Hogault.
Huo Gao said, "But the eldest princess has been placed under house arrest by him, if he makes up his mind, after killing the princess, and then harming the eldest princess, he can eradicate all the people who pose a threat to his throne, the general has the imperial capital heavy troops, as long as you give an order, we can rush into the imperial city to rescue the eldest princess"
Adams sneered, "Are you a traitor to me?"
Huo Gao was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head.
Adams's eyes looked at the setting sun in the west, in fact, he had already considered sending troops, but now sending troops is tantamount to announcing his rebellion in public, and Xuan Kite will definitely make a big fuss about this matter. Sending troops was inevitable, but he was still waiting for an opportunity, he was waiting for the death of Princess Xuanbo, or the eldest princess, and no matter what happened to any of them, Adams had a good reason.
From time to time, there were panicked screams of palace maids and attendants in Qingyue Palace, firelight and smoke rose from all around Qingyue Palace, Chen Lin and Wanyue sat on the side of Princess Xuanbo's bed, their eyes on each other were extremely solemn.
Chen Lin already knew in his heart that Xuan Yuan would not give himself a chance to survive this time, neither he nor Xuan Bo were afraid that they would never be able to leave Qingyue Palace again.
Princess Xuanbo's gaze hidden under the golden mask revealed deep sorrow, for the sake of the throne, Xuanbo actually ignored the flesh and blood affection of her brother and sister, and tried to burn herself alive in Qingyue Palace.
There were screams outside the window, but it was the screams of the palace maid who wanted to escape from the palace before she was shot by a cold arrow.
"Princess, find a way to escape, the fire will soon spread here," Wanyue said in horror.
Princess Xuanbo sighed quietly.
Chen Lin slowly stood up, and he strode out the door.
"What are you doing," Xuan Bo said softly.
"Anyway, it's all one death, I might as well rush out and fight, kill two more for me to bury" Chen Lin said loudly, he estimated coarsely, there are still ten bullets in the pistol, if you are lucky, you can kill ten enemies, maybe you can kill that bastard of Xuan Kite.
"We won't die" Xuan Bo's words made Chen Lin stop suddenly.
Xuan Bo lifted the brocade mattress and pressed it lightly on the jade collapse, and the bed moved to the side with a loud bang, revealing a bottomless hole underneath.
Chen Lin was surprised and delighted, he didn't expect that there was a hidden mechanism under this jade collapse, he thought that he would definitely die this time, but he didn't expect things to suddenly take a turn for the better.
Xuan Bo picked up the candlestick on the table and took the lead in walking down to the entrance of the cave.
Chen Lin and Wanyue hurriedly followed behind her, walked down dozens of steps, and came to the corner, Xuan Bo twisted the relief on the wall, and after two weeks of rotation, he heard the sound of the bed sliding overhead, and the hole was covered by the bed again.
Xuan Bo said softly, "This underground passage is reserved for the imperial family to escape when necessary, and my father confided this secret to me before he set out on the expedition, maybe he had already expected what happened today" The words revealed infinite loneliness.
Chen Lin was still immersed in the happiness of escaping death, and asked in a low voice, "Where does this secret passage lead?"
Xuan Bo shook his head, "I have only walked here at the farthest, and I don't know where the exit of the secret passage is, but my father once said that the other opening of this secret passage is in the imperial city, and even if we escape, we still can't leave the palace." "ァ新ヤ81 Chinese Net
Chen Lin's nerves that had just relaxed had to be tensed again, and if the opening was unfortunately within the control of Xuan Kite, I was afraid that they would still not be able to get out of danger.
The three of them zigzagged forward, walked more than a mile, the candle flame suddenly went out, and suddenly fell into darkness in front of them, Xuanbo subconsciously stopped, but Chen Lin still did not close his feet, his body hit Xuanbo's soft delicate body, Xuanbo couldn't help but let out a scream, and his pretty face was hot, fortunately it was in the dark, and others couldn't see her embarrassment at the moment.
Chen Lin said in a low voice, "Is there still a tinder?"
Xuan Bo and Wan Yue replied at the same time, "No"
Chen Lin said, "I'm walking in front, and the two of you hold my sleeves so as not to get lost" As a man, he should rush to the front at this time.
Xuan Bo and Wan Yue followed behind Chen Lin, in the darkness they couldn't see the road ahead, Chen Lin groped forward with a pair of hands, not colliding on the wall, groping for about half an hour, and had come to the end of the road.
"There's no road ahead," Chen Lin said in a low voice.
Xuan Bo groped along the wall, touched a dragon-shaped relief on the left wall, and said in surprise, "It's here, just turn the dragon head for a week, and we can go out." She touched the position of the dragon head and was about to do it, but Chen Lin grabbed Rouyi, she was ashamed and angry, thinking that Chen Lin was deliberately taking advantage of him, and was about to scold, but heard Chen Lin say, "Listen carefully to the movement outside" Only then did she know that Chen Lin had no other intentions.
Chen Lin put his ear on the wall, listened carefully to the movement outside, and raised his head for a long time, "It's quiet outside, it should be safe." ”
Xuan Bo was about to make a move, but he heard Chen Lin say, "Wait for me, I'll be back soon" He turned around and ran into the distance.
Xuan Bo was very surprised in his heart, he didn't know what he thought of again, he listened with his ears, but he heard the sound of running water in the distance in the dark, and immediately understood what Chen Lin was doing, and his pretty face immediately turned red, this brazen guy actually urinated in front of two girls
Chen Lin returned to the two girls with a comfortable body, and he said in a low voice, "While their attention is now focused on the Qingyue Palace, let's get out of here as soon as possible." ”
Xuan Bo nodded, and remembered that the others couldn't see their reactions in the dark, and said softly, "Yes, we should get out of here as soon as possible, they can't find our bodies from the fire, they will definitely launch a comprehensive search, and the secret path is very likely to be discovered." ”
She grabbed the faucet and spun it counterclockwise, and there was a creaking sound on the wall, and after a while, she saw an irregular crack in the wall, and a faint light penetrated through the crack, and the crack grew bigger and bigger, and a doorway appeared in front of their eyes.
Xuan Bo wanted to go outside, but Chen Lin grabbed his slender hand and said with concern, "You guys stay inside first, and I'll go out to investigate the situation." ”
Xuan Bo hurriedly shook off Chen Lin's big hand, remembering what Chen Lin had just done, his heart was pounding, this bastard guy actually came to catch himself without even washing his hands.
At this time, Chen Lin naturally did not have so many scruples, and walked out of the door carefully, a rancid breath rushed to his face, and his feet were soft, carefully distinguished, this seems to be a stable, and the location where the exit was built happened to be the place where horse manure was stored, no wonder the air would be so dirty, Chen Lin sighed in his heart, Xuan Sizhe thought about things thoroughly, no one would have thought that the exit of the secret passage would be in the dirty stable, let alone that the noble royal family would escape through this road.
